 This Pooling and Servicing Agreement, effective as of
[            ] 1, 20[    ], among PHOENIX RESIDENTIAL SECURITIES, LLC, as the depositor (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Depositor”),
[            ], as master servicer (together with its permitted successors and assigns, the “Master Servicer”), and
[            ], a banking association organized under the laws of the United States, as trustee [and supplemental interest trust trustee] (together with its permitted successors and
assigns, the “Trustee” [and the “Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee,” respectively]). 
 PRELIMINARY
STATEMENT: 
 The Depositor intends to sell mortgage-backed pass-through certificates (collectively, the
“Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in seventeen Classes, which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans (as defined herein) and certain other related assets. 

REMIC I 
 As provided herein, the REMIC Administrator will make an election to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other related assets [(exclusive of the [Yield
Maintenance Agreement][Supplemental Inteerst Trust Account and the Swap Agreement]] subject to this Agreement as a real estate mortgage investment conduit (a “REMIC”) for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will
be designated as “REMIC I.” The Class R-I Certificates will represent the sole Class of “residual interests” in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined herein) under federal income tax law. The following table
irrevocably sets forth the designation, remittance rate (the “Uncertificated REMIC I Pass-Through Rate”) and initial Uncertificated Principal Balance for each of the “regular interests” in REMIC I (the “REMIC I Regular
Interests”). The “latest possible maturity date” (determined solely for purposes of satisfying Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii)) for each REMIC I Regular Interest shall be the Maturity Date. None of the REMIC I
Regular Interests will be certificated.

 The amount of Accrued Certificate Interest on each Class of Class R, Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates shall be reduced by the amount of (a) Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the

 Section 1.02. Determination of LIBOR 

LIBOR applicable to the calculation of the Pass-Through Rate on the LIBOR Certificates for any Interest Accrual Period will be determined
as of each LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date. 
 On each LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date, or if such LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date is not a
Business Day, then on the next succeeding Business Day, LIBOR shall be established by the Trustee and, as to any Interest Accrual Period, will equal the rate for one month United States dollar deposits that appears on the Telerate Screen Page 3750
as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on such LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date. “Telerate Screen Page 3750” means the display designated as page 3750 on the Bridge Telerate Service (or such other page as may replace page 3750 on that service for the
purpose of displaying London interbank offered rates of major banks). If such rate does not appear on such page (or such other page as may replace that page on that service, or if such service is no longer offered, LIBOR shall be so established by
use of such other service for displaying LIBOR or comparable rates as may be selected by the Trustee after consultation with the Master Servicer), the rate will be the Reference Bank Rate. 

The “Reference Bank Rate” will be determined on the basis of the rates at which deposits in U.S. Dollars are offered by the
reference banks (which shall be any three major banks that are engaged in transactions in the London interbank market, selected by the Trustee after consultation with the Master Servicer) as of 11:00 a.m., London time, on the LIBOR Rate Adjustment
Date to prime banks in the London interbank market for a period of one month in amounts approximately equal to the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the LIBOR Certificates then outstanding. The Trustee shall request the principal London
office of each of the reference banks to provide a quotation of its rate. If at least two such quotations are provided, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the quotations rounded up to the next multiple of 1/16%. If on such date fewer than two
quotations are provided as requested, the rate will be the arithmetic mean of the rates quoted by one or more major banks in New York City, selected by the Trustee after consultation with the Master Servicer, as of 11:00 a.m., New York City time, on
such date for loans in U.S. Dollars to leading European banks for a period of one month in amounts approximately equal to the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the LIBOR Certificates then outstanding. If no such quotations can be obtained,
the rate will be LIBOR for the prior Distribution Date; provided, however, if, under the priorities described above, LIBOR for a Distribution Date would be based on LIBOR for the previous Distribution Date for the third consecutive
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall select an alternative comparable index (over which the Trustee has no control), used for determining one-month Eurodollar lending rates that is calculated and published (or otherwise made available) by an
independent party. 
 The establishment of LIBOR by the Trustee on any LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date and the Trustee’s
subsequent calculation of the Pass-Through Rates applicable to the LIBOR Certificates for the relevant Interest Accrual Period, in the absence of manifest error, will be final and binding. 

Promptly following each LIBOR Rate Adjustment Date the Trustee shall supply the Master Servicer with the results of its determination of
LIBOR on such date. Furthermore, the Trustee shall supply to any Certificateholder so requesting by calling the Bondholder Inquiry Line at
1-800-[            ]-[            ], the Pass-Through Rate on the LIBOR Certificates for the current and the immediately
preceding Interest Accrual Period.

with evidence of recording indicated thereon; and 
 (v) The original of each modification, assumption agreement or preferred

 The Depositor may, in lieu of delivering the original of the documents set forth in Section 2.01(b)(ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) (or copies thereof as permitted by Section 2.01(b)) to the
Trustee or the Custodian, deliver such documents to the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall hold such documents in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders until such time as is set forth in the next
sentence. Within thirty Business Days following the earlier of (i) the receipt of the original of all of the documents or instruments set forth in Section 2.01(b)(ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) (or copies thereof as permitted by such

such documents to the Trustee or the Custodian that are the duly appointed agent or agents of the Trustee. 
 On the Closing
Date, the Master Servicer shall certify that it has in its possession an original or copy of each of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(b)(ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) which has been delivered to it by the Depositor. 

The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee agree that it is not intended that any mortgage loan be included in the Trust that is

effective January 1, 2005. 
 (c) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.01(b), in the event that in connection
with any Mortgage Loan, if the Depositor cannot deliver the original of the Mortgage, any assignment, modification, assumption agreement or preferred loan agreement (or copy thereof as permitted by Section 2.01(b)) with evidence of recording
thereon concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement because of (i) a delay caused by the public recording office where such Mortgage, assignment, modification, assumption agreement or preferred loan agreement as the case may
be, has been delivered for recordation, or (ii) a delay in the receipt of certain information necessary to prepare the related assignments, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or the respective Custodian a copy
of such Mortgage, assignment, modification, assumption agreement or preferred loan agreement. 

  
 57 









 The Depositor shall promptly cause to be recorded in the appropriate public office for real
property records the Assignment referred to in clause (iii) of Section 2.01(b), except (a) in states where, in an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, such recording is not required to protect the
Trustee’s interests in the Mortgage Loan or (b) if MERS is identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage, as applicable, as the mortgagee of record solely as nominee for
[            ] and its successors and assigns. If any Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded to the Depositor because of any defect therein, the Depositor shall prepare a substitute
Assignment or cure such defect, as the case may be, and cause such Assignment to be recorded in accordance with this paragraph. The Depositor shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or the respective Custodian such Mortgage or
Assignment, as applicable (or copy thereof as permitted by Section 2.01(b)), with evidence of recording indicated thereon upon receipt thereof from the public recording office or from the related Subservicer or Seller. 

If the Depositor delivers to the Trustee or Custodian any Mortgage Note or Assignment of Mortgage in blank, the Depositor shall, or shall
cause the Custodian to, complete the endorsement of the Mortgage Note and the Assignment of Mortgage in the name of the Trustee in conjunction with the Interim Certification issued by the Custodian, as contemplated by Section 2.02. 

Any of the items set forth in Sections 2.01(b)(ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) and that may be delivered as a copy rather than
the original may be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian. 
 In connection with the assignment of any
Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS® System, the Depositor further agrees that it will cause, at the
Depositor’s own expense, within 30 Business Days after the Closing Date, the MERS® System to indicate that
such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the Depositor to the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders by including (or deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans which are repurchased in accordance with this
Agreement) in such computer files (a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Trustee and (b) the code in the field “Pool Field” which identifies the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such Mortgage
Loans. The Depositor further agrees that it will not, and will not permit the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it will not, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Mortgage Loan during the term of this
Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. 
 (d) It is
intended that the conveyances by the Depositor to the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans as provided for in this Section 2.01 and the Uncertificated Regular Interests be construed as a sale by the Depositor to the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans and
the Uncertificated Regular Interests for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Further, it is not intended that any such conveyance be deemed to be a pledge of the Mortgage Loans and the Uncertificated Regular Interests by the Depositor to the
Trustee to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. Nonetheless, (a) this Agreement is intended to be and hereby is a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform
Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction; (b) the conveyances provided for in this Section 2.01 shall be deemed to be (1) a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee of a security interest in all of the Depositor’s right
(including the power to convey title thereto), title and 

  
 58 









 
interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to (A) the Mortgage Loans, including the related Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, any insurance policies and all other documents in the
related Mortgage File, (B) any Uncertificated Regular Interests and any and all general intangibles, payment intangibles, accounts, chattel paper, instruments, documents, money, deposit accounts, certificates of deposit, goods, letters of
credit, advices of credit and investment property and other property of whatever kind or description now existing or hereafter acquired consisting of, arising from or relating to any of the foregoing, and (C) all proceeds of the conversion,
voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts from time to time held or invested in the Certificate Account or the Custodial Account, whether in the form of
cash, instruments, securities or other property and (2) an assignment by the Depositor to the Trustee of any security interest in any and all of [            ]’s right (including
the power to convey title thereto), title and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in and to the property described in the foregoing clauses (1)(A), (B) and (C) granted by
[            ] to the Depositor pursuant to the Assignment Agreement; (c) the possession by the Trustee, the Custodian or any other agent of the Trustee of Mortgage Notes or such other
items of property as constitute instruments, money, payment intangibles, negotiable documents, goods, deposit accounts, letters of credit, advices of credit, investment property, certificated securities or chattel paper shall be deemed to be
“possession by the secured party,” or possession by a purchaser or a person designated by such secured party, for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the Minnesota Uniform Commercial Code and the Uniform Commercial
Code of any other applicable jurisdiction as in effect (including, without limitation, Sections 8-106, 9-313 and 9-106 thereof); and (d) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons
holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, securities intermediaries, bailees or agents of, or persons holding for, (as applicable) the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such
security interest under applicable law. 
 The Depositor and, at the Depositor’s direction,
[            ] and the Trustee shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create
a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and the Uncertificated Regular Interests 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 will be
maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and deliver to the Trustee not less than 15 days prior to any filing date and, the Trustee shall 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 Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in any jurisdiction to perfect
the Trustee’s security interest in or lien on the Mortgage Loans and the Uncertificated Regular Interests, as evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate of the Depositor, including without limitation (x) continuation statements, and
(y) such other statements as may be occasioned by (1) any change of name of [            ], the Depositor or the Trustee (such preparation and filing shall be at the expense of
the Trustee, if occasioned by a change in the Trustee’s name), (2) any change of location of the place of business or the chief executive office of [            ] or the
Depositor, (3) any transfer of any interest of [            ] or the Depositor in any Mortgage Loan or (4) any transfer of any interest of
[            ] or the Depositor in any Uncertificated Regular Interests.

Mortgage Note may be endorsed in blank and an Assignment of Mortgage may be in blank) and declares that it, or a Custodian as its agent, holds and will hold such documents and the other documents constituting a part of the Custodial Files delivered
to it, or a Custodian as its agent, in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee or Custodian (such Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement) agrees, for the benefit of
Certificateholders, to review each Custodial File delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01(b) within 90 days after the Closing Date to ascertain that all required documents (specifically as set forth in Section 2.01(b)), have been
executed and received, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, as supplemented, that have been conveyed to it, and to deliver to the Trustee a certificate (the “Interim Certification”)
to the effect that all documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(b) above have been executed and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any
exceptions listed on Schedule A attached to such Interim Certification. Upon delivery of the Custodial Files by the Depositor or the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall acknowledge receipt (or, with respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Custodial
Agreement, and based solely upon a receipt or certification executed by the Custodian, receipt by the respective Custodian as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee) of the documents referred to in Section 2.01(b) above. 

If the Custodian, as the Trustee’s agent, finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Custodial File to be missing or
defective, upon receipt of notification from the Custodian as specified in the succeeding sentence, the Trustee shall promptly so notify or cause the Custodian to notify the Master Servicer and the Depositor. Pursuant to Section 2.3 of the
Custodial Agreement, the Custodian will notify the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee of any such omission or defect found by it in respect of any Custodial File held by it in respect of the items received by it pursuant to the Custodial
Agreement. If such omission or defect materially and adversely affects the interests in the related Mortgage Loan of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify
[            ] of such omission or defect and request [            ] to correct or cure such omission or defect within 60 days
from the date the Master Servicer was notified of such omission or defect and, if [            ] does not correct or cure such omission or defect within such period,
[            ] to purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust at its Purchase Price, within 90 days from the date the Master Servicer was notified of such omission or defect; provided that
if the omission or defect would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was
discovered. The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited or caused to be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account maintained by it pursuant to Section 3.07 and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee or any Custodian, as the case may be, shall release to [            ] the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the 

  
 60 









 
Master Servicer, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in [            ] or its designee, any Mortgage Loan
released pursuant hereto and thereafter such Mortgage Loan shall not be part of the Trust. In furtherance of the foregoing and Section 2.04, if the Subservicer or Seller or
[            ] that repurchases the Mortgage Loan is not a member of MERS and the Mortgage is registered on the MERS® System, the Master Servicer, at its own expense and without any right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in
recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to such Subservicer or Seller or [            ] and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of
[            ], to so cure or purchase any Mortgage Loan as to which a material and adverse defect in or omission of a constituent document exists shall constitute the sole remedy
respecting such defect or omission available to Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders. 
 Section
2.03. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Master Servicer and the Depositor 
 (a) The Master Servicer
hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders that: 
 (i) The Master Servicer is a
[corporation][limited liability company] duly [organized][formed], validly existing and in good standing under the laws governing its creation and existence and is or will be in compliance with the laws of each state in which any Mortgaged Property
is located to the extent necessary to ensure the enforceability of each Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; 
 (ii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Master Servicer and its performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement will not violate the Master Servicer’s [Certificate of
Incorporation or Bylaws][Operating Agreement] or constitute a material default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a material default) under, or result in the material breach of, any material contract,
agreement or other instrument to which the Master Servicer is a party or which may be applicable to the Master Servicer or any of its assets; 
 (iii) This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Trustee and the Depositor, constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of the Master Servicer, enforceable against it
in accordance with the terms hereof subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and to general principles of equity, regardless of whether such
enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law; 
 (iv) The Master Servicer is not in default with respect to any
order or decree of any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency, which default might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or
operations of the Master Servicer or its properties or might have consequences that would materially adversely affect its performance hereunder; 

  
 61 









 (v) No litigation is pending or, to the best of the Master Servicer’s knowledge,
threatened against the Master Servicer which would prohibit its entering into this Agreement or performing its obligations under this Agreement; 
 (vi) The Master Servicer shall comply in all material respects in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under each Required Insurance Policy;

 (vii) No information, certificate of an officer, statement furnished in writing or report delivered to the Depositor, any
Affiliate of the Depositor or the Trustee by the Master Servicer will, to the knowledge of the Master Servicer, contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit a material fact necessary to make the information, certificate, statement or
report not misleading; 
 (viii) The Master Servicer has examined each existing, and will examine each new, Subservicing
Agreement and is or will be familiar with the terms thereof. The terms of each existing Subservicing Agreement and each designated Subservicer are acceptable to the Master Servicer and any new Subservicing Agreements will comply with the provisions
of Section 3.02; 
 (ix) The Master Servicer is a member of MERS in good standing, and will comply in all material respects
with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS; and 

(x) The Servicing Guide of the Master Servicer requires that the Subservicer for each Mortgage Loan accurately and fully reports its
borrower credit files to each of the Credit Repositories in a timely manner. 
 It is understood and agreed that the

 Upon discovery by either the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or any Custodian of a breach of any representation or warranty set forth in this Section 2.03(a) which materially and
adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties (any Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement). Within 90 days of
its discovery or its receipt of notice of such breach, the Master Servicer shall either (i) cure such breach in all material respects or (ii) to the extent that such breach is with respect to a Mortgage Loan or a related document, purchase
such Mortgage Loan from the Trust at the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02; provided that if the breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered. The obligation of the Master Servicer to cure such breach or to so purchase such Mortgage Loan shall constitute the
sole remedy in respect of a breach of a representation and warranty set forth in this Section 2.03(a) available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. 

  
 62 









 (b) The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date (or, if otherwise specified below, as of the date so specified): (i) the information set forth in Exhibit F hereto with respect to each Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loans, as the case may be, is
true and correct in all material respects at the respective date or dates which such information is furnished; (ii) immediately prior to the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, the Depositor had good title to, and was the sole
owner of, each Mortgage Loan free and clear of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest (other than rights to servicing and related compensation) and such conveyance validly transfers ownership of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee free and
clear of any pledge, lien, encumbrance or security interest; and (iii) each Mortgage Loan constitutes a qualified mortgage under Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(1). 

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.03(b) shall survive delivery of
the respective Custodial Files to the Trustee or any Custodian. 
 Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee or any Custodian of a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.03(b) which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties (any Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement); provided, however, that in the event of a breach of the representation and warranty set forth in
Section 2.03(b)(iii), the party discovering such breach shall give such notice within five days of discovery. Within 90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of breach, the Depositor shall either (i) cure such breach in all
material respects or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust at the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02; provided that the Depositor shall have the option to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or
Loans for such Mortgage Loan if such substitution occurs within two years following the Closing Date; provided that if the omission or defect would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure, substitution or repurchase must occur within 90 days from the date such breach was discovered. Any such substitution shall be effected by the Depositor under the same terms and conditions as
provided in Section 2.04 for substitutions by [            ]. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Depositor to cure such breach or to so purchase or substitute for
any Mortgage Loan as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Depositor shall not be required to cure breaches or purchase or substitute for Mortgage Loans as provided in this Section 2.03(b) if the substance of the breach of a representation set forth above also constitutes fraud in the
origination of the Mortgage Loan. 

  
 63 









 Section 2.04. Representations and Warranties of
[            ] 
 The Depositor, as assignee of
[            ] under the Assignment Agreement, hereby assigns to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders all of its right, title and interest in respect of the Assignment
Agreement applicable to a Mortgage Loan as and to the extent set forth in the Assignment Agreement. Insofar as the Assignment Agreement relates to the representations and warranties made by
[            ] or the related Seller in respect of such Mortgage Loan and any remedies provided thereunder for any breach of such representations and warranties, such right, title and
interest may be enforced by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders. Upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or any Custodian of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made
in the Assignment Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan or of any Repurchase Event which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the other parties (any Custodian being so obligated under a Custodial Agreement). The Master Servicer shall promptly notify [            ] of such breach or Repurchase Event and
request that [            ] either (i) cure such breach or Repurchase Event in all material respects within 90 days from the date the Master Servicer was notified of such breach or
Repurchase Event or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust at the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02. 
 Upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Custodian of a breach of any of such representations and warranties set forth in the Assignment Agreement in respect of any
Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties (the Custodian being so obligated under a
Custodial Agreement). The Master Servicer shall promptly notify [            ] of such breach of a representation or warranty set forth in the Assignment Agreement and request that
[            ] either (i) cure such breach in all material respects within 90 days from the date the Master Servicer was notified of such breach or (ii) purchase such Mortgage
Loan from the Trust within 90 days of the date of such written notice of such breach at the Purchase Price and in the manner set forth in Section 2.02; provided that, in the case of a breach or Repurchase Event under the Assignment Agreement
[            ] shall have the option to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for such Mortgage Loan if such substitution occurs within two years following the Closing
Date; provided that if the breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be other than a “qualified mortgage” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, any such cure or substitution must occur within 90 days from the date the breach was
discovered. If the breach of representation and warranty that gave rise to the obligation to repurchase or substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement was the representation and warranty set forth in clause
(w) of Section 4 thereof, then the Master Servicer shall request that [            ] pay to the Trust, concurrently with and in addition to the remedies provided in the preceding
sentence, an amount equal to any liability, penalty or expense that was actually incurred and paid out of or on behalf of the Trust, and that directly resulted from such breach, or if incurred and paid by the Trust thereafter, concurrently with such
payment. In the event that [            ] elects to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for a Deleted Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.04,
[            ] shall deliver to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the original Mortgage Note, the
Mortgage, an Assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form, and such 

  
 64 









 
other documents and agreements as are required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed as required by Section 2.01. No substitution will be made in any calendar month after the
Determination Date for such month. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust and will be retained by the Master Servicer and remitted by the Master Servicer
to [            ] on the next succeeding Distribution Date. For the month of substitution, distributions to the Certificateholders will include the Monthly Payment due on a Deleted Mortgage
Loan for such month and thereafter [            ] shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend or cause to be
amended the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the
amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement and the related Subservicing Agreement in all respects,
[            ] shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties with respect to the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (other than those of a statistical nature) contained in
Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement as of the date of substitution, and the covenants, representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.04, and in Section 2.03(a) hereof and in Section 4 of the Assignment
Agreement, and the Master Servicer shall be obligated to repurchase or substitute for any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as to which a Repurchase Event (as defined in the Assignment Agreement) has occurred pursuant to Section 4 of the
Assignment Agreement. 
 In connection with the substitution of one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more
Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal
Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans (in each case after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments due in the month of substitution that are to be distributed to the Certificateholders in the month of substitution).
[            ] shall deposit the amount of such shortfall into the Custodial Account on the day of substitution, without any reimbursement therefor.
[            ] shall give notice in writing to the Trustee of such event, which notice shall be accompanied by an Officers’ Certificate as to the calculation of such shortfall and
(subject to Section 10.01(f)) by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited
transactions” under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or on “contributions after the startup date” under Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code or (b) any portion of any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any
time that any Certificate is outstanding. 
 It is understood and agreed that the obligation of
[            ] to cure such breach or purchase or substitute for a such Mortgage Loan as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing and to make any additional payments required
under the Assignment Agreement in connection with a breach of the representation and warranty in clause (w) of Section 4 thereof shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Certificateholders or the Trustee on
behalf of the Certificateholders. If the Master Servicer is [            ], then the Trustee shall also have the right to give the notification and require the purchase or substitution
provided for in the second preceding paragraph in the event 

  
 65 









 
of such a breach of a representation or warranty made by [            ] in the Assignment Agreement. In connection with the purchase of
or substitution for any such Mortgage Loan by [            ], the Trustee shall assign to [            ] all of the right, title
and interest in respect of the Seller’s Agreement and the Assignment Agreement applicable to such Mortgage Loan. 

Section 2.05. Execution and Authentication of Certificates; Conveyance of REMIC I Regular Interests 

(a) The Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans and the delivery of the Custodial Files to it, or any Custodian on
its behalf, subject to any exceptions noted, together with the assignment to it of all other assets included in the Trust, receipt of which is hereby acknowledged. Concurrently with such delivery and in exchange therefor, the Trustee, pursuant to
the written request of the Depositor executed by an officer of the Depositor, has executed and caused to be authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor the [Certificates in authorized denominations which evidence ownership of
the entire Trust]. 
 (b) The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set
over and otherwise convey in trust to the Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the REMIC I Regular Interests for the benefit of the holders of the Regular Certificates and the Class R-II certificates.
The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the REMIC I Regular Interests (each of which are uncertificated) and declares that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of the holders of the Regular Certificates and the
Class R-II Certificates. The interests evidenced by the Class R-II Certificate, together with the Regular Certificates, constitute the entire beneficial ownership interest in REMIC II. 

Section 2.06. Purposes and Powers of the Trust 
 The purpose of the trust, as created hereunder, is to engage in the following activities: 
 (a) to sell the Certificates to the Depositor in exchange for the Mortgage Loans; 

(b) to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement; 

(c) to engage in those activities that are necessary, suitable or convenient to accomplish the foregoing or are incidental thereto or
connected therewith; and 
 (d) subject to compliance with this Agreement, to engage in such other activities as may be required
in connection with conservation of the Trust and the making of distributions to the Certificateholders. 
 The trust is hereby
authorized to engage in the foregoing activities. Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.01, the trust shall not engage in any activity other than in connection with the foregoing or other than as required or authorized by the terms of
this Agreement while any Certificate is outstanding, and this Section 2.06 may not be amended, without the consent of the Certificateholders evidencing a majority of the aggregate Voting Rights of the Certificates. 

  
 66 









 Section 2.07. Agreement Regarding Ability to Disclose 

The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee hereby agree that, notwithstanding any other express or implied agreement to the
contrary, any and all Persons, and any of their respective employees, representatives, and other agents may disclose, immediately upon commencement of discussions, to any and all Persons, without limitation of any kind, the tax treatment and tax
structure of the transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are provided to any of them relating to such tax treatment and tax structure. For purposes of this paragraph, the terms “tax,”
“tax treatment,” “tax structure,” and “tax benefit” are defined under Treasury Regulation § 1.6011-4(c).

 ARTICLE III 
 ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING 
 OF MORTGAGE LOANS 

Section 3.01. Master Servicer to Act as Servicer 

(a) The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement
and the respective Mortgage Loans, following such procedures as it would employ in its good faith business judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or
through Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and administration. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer in
its own name or in the name of a Subservicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee when the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in its best judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, or of consent to assumption or modification in connection with a proposed conveyance, or of
assignment of any Mortgage and Mortgage Note in connection with the repurchase of a Mortgage Loan and all other comparable instruments, or with respect to the modification or re-recording of a Mortgage for the purpose of correcting the Mortgage, the
subordination of the lien of the Mortgage in favor of a public utility company or government agency or unit with powers of eminent domain, the taking of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the commencement, prosecution or completion of judicial or
non-judicial foreclosure, the conveyance of a Mortgaged Property to the related insurer, the acquisition of any property acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure, or the management, marketing and conveyance of any property acquired by
foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. The Master Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee,
in its own name or in the name of the Subservicer, when the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all
instruments of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee and its successors and assigns. Any expenses incurred in connection with
the actions described in the preceding sentence shall be borne by the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 3.16(c), with no right of reimbursement; provided, that if, as a result of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue
operations in connection with the MERS® System, it becomes necessary to remove any Mortgage Loan from
registration on the MERS® System and to arrange for the assignment of the related Mortgages to the Trustee, then
any related expenses shall be reimbursable to the Master Servicer as set forth in Section 3.10(a)(ii). Notwithstanding the foregoing, subject to Section 3.07(a), the Master Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any
Mortgage Loan that would both constitute a sale or exchange of such Mortgage Loan within the meaning of Section 1001 of the Code and any proposed, temporary or final regulations promulgated thereunder (other than in connection with a proposed
conveyance or assumption of 

  
 68 









 
such Mortgage Loan that is treated as a Principal Prepayment in Full pursuant to Section 3.13(d) hereof) and cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the
Code. The Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee shall not be liable for any action
taken by the Master Servicer or any Subservicer pursuant to such powers of attorney or other documents. In servicing and administering any Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall, to the extent not inconsistent with this Agreement,
comply with the Program Guide as if it were the originator of such Mortgage Loan and had retained the servicing rights and obligations in respect thereof. 
 (b) In connection with servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer and any Affiliate of the Master Servicer (i) may perform services such as appraisals and brokerage services
that are customarily provided by Persons other than servicers of mortgage loans, and shall be entitled to reasonable compensation therefor in accordance with Section 3.10 and (ii) may, at its own discretion and on behalf of the Trustee,
obtain credit information in the form of a “credit score” from a credit repository. 
 (c) All costs incurred by the
Master Servicer or by Subservicers in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the properties subject to the Mortgage Loans shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to the
amount owing under the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit, and such costs shall be recoverable to the extent permitted by Section 3.10(a)(ii). 

(d) The Master Servicer may enter into one or more agreements in connection with the offering of pass-through certificates evidencing
interests in one or more of the Certificates providing for the payment by the Master Servicer of amounts received by the Master Servicer as servicing compensation hereunder and required to cover certain Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Mortgage
Loans, which payment obligation will thereafter be an obligation of the Master Servicer hereunder. 
 (e) The relationship of
the Master Servicer (and of any successor to the Master Servicer) to the Depositor under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent. 

(f) The Master Servicer shall comply with the terms of Section 8 of the Assignment Agreement. 

Section 3.02. Subservicing Agreements Between Master Servicer and Subservicers; Enforcement of Subservicers’ Obligations;
Special Servicing 
 (a) The Master Servicer may continue in effect Subservicing Agreements entered into by
[            ] and Subservicers prior to the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and may enter into new Subservicing Agreements with Subservicers, for the servicing and administration
of all or some of the Mortgage Loans. Each Subservicer shall be either (i) an institution the accounts of which are insured by the FDIC or (ii) another entity that engages in the business of originating or servicing mortgage loans, and in
either case shall be 

  
 69 









 
authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the
Subservicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Subservicing Agreement, and in either case shall be a Freddie Mac, Fannie Mae or HUD approved mortgage servicer. Each Subservicer of a Mortgage Loan shall be entitled to receive and
retain, as provided in the related Subservicing Agreement and in Section 3.07, the related Subservicing Fee from payments of interest received on such Mortgage Loan after payment of all amounts required to be remitted to the Master Servicer in
respect of such Mortgage Loan. For any Mortgage Loan that is a Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive and retain an amount equal to the Subservicing Fee from payments of interest. Unless the context otherwise
requires, references in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer in servicing the Mortgage Loans include actions taken or to be taken by a Subservicer on behalf of the Master Servicer. Each Subservicing Agreement will be
upon such terms and conditions as are generally required by, permitted by or consistent with the Program Guide and are not inconsistent with this Agreement and as the Master Servicer and the Subservicer have agreed. With the approval of the Master
Servicer, a Subservicer may delegate its servicing obligations to third-party servicers, but such Subservicer will remain obligated under the related Subservicing Agreement. The Master Servicer and a Subservicer may enter into amendments thereto or
a different form of Subservicing Agreement, and the form referred to or included in the Program Guide is merely provided for information and shall not be deemed to limit in any respect the discretion of the Master Servicer to modify or enter into
different Subservicing Agreements; provided, however, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of either this Agreement or the Program Guide in a manner which would materially and
adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders. The Program Guide and any other Subservicing Agreement entered into between the Master Servicer and any Subservicer shall require the Subservicer to accurately and fully report its borrower
credit files to each of the Credit Repositories in a timely manner. 
 (b) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the
Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall use its best reasonable efforts to enforce the obligations of each Subservicer under the related Subservicing Agreement and of each Seller under the related
Seller’s Agreement, to the extent that the non-performance of any such obligation would have a material and adverse effect on a Mortgage Loan, including, without limitation, the obligation to purchase a Mortgage Loan on account of defective
documentation, as described in Section 2.02, or on account of a breach of a representation or warranty, as described in Section 2.04. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of
Subservicing Agreements or Seller’s Agreements, as appropriate, 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 would employ in its good faith
business judgment and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery
resulting from such enforcement to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys fees against the party against whom such
enforcement is directed. For purposes of clarification only, the parties agree that the foregoing is not intended to, and does not, limit the ability of the Master Servicer to be reimbursed for expenses that are incurred in connection with the
enforcement of a Seller’s obligations and are reimbursable pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(vii).

 Section 3.03. Successor Subservicers 

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing Agreement that may exist in accordance with the terms and conditions
of such Subservicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of termination of any Subservicing Agreement by the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, the Master Servicer shall
either act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loan or enter into a Subservicing Agreement with a successor Subservicer which will be bound by the terms of the related Subservicing Agreement. If the Master Servicer or any Affiliate of
[            ] acts as servicer, it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of the Subservicer which it replaces. If the Master Servicer enters into a Subservicing
Agreement with a successor Subservicer, the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the successor Subservicer assume liability for the representations and warranties made by the terminated Subservicer in respect of the related Mortgage
Loans and, in the event of any such assumption by the successor Subservicer, the Master Servicer may, in the exercise of its business judgment, release the terminated Subservicer from liability for such representations and warranties. 

Section 3.04. Liability of the Master Servicer 
 Notwithstanding any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master Servicer or a Subservicer or reference to actions taken
through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Trustee and Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without
diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer or the Depositor and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the
Master Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Subservicer or Seller for indemnification of the Master Servicer and nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. 
 Section 3.05. No Contractual Relationship
Between Subservicer and Trustee or Certificateholders 
 Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other
transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and the Master Servicer alone and the Trustee and Certificateholders shall
not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer in its capacity as such except as set forth in Section 3.06. The foregoing provision shall not in any way limit a
Subservicer’s obligation to cure an omission or defect or to repurchase a Mortgage Loan as referred to in Section 2.02 hereof. 

  
 71 









 Section 3.06. Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreements by Trustee

 (a) In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the master servicer (including by reason of an Event of
Default), the Trustee, its designee or its successor shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under each Subservicing Agreement that may have been entered into. The Trustee, its designee or the successor
servicer for the Trustee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the Master Servicer as a party to the Subservicing Agreement to the same extent as if the Subservicing Agreement had
been assigned to the assuming party except that the Master Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under the Subservicing Agreement. 
 (b) The Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee but at the expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Subservicing Agreement and
the Mortgage Loans then being serviced 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 Subservicing Agreement to the assuming party. 

(c) [Unless a Certificate Insurer Default exists, the Master Servicer will, if it is authorized to do so under the relevant Subservicing
Agreement, upon request of the Certificate Insurer at a time when the Certificate Insurer may remove the Master Servicer under the terms hereof, terminate any Subservicing Agreement.] 

Section 3.07. Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments; Deposits to Custodial Account 

(a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage
Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Primary Insurance Policy, follow such collection procedures as it would employ in its good faith business judgment
and which are normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in connection
with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the Due Date for payments due on a Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Program Guide, provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall first determine that any such waiver or
extension will not impair the coverage of any related Primary Insurance Policy or materially adversely affect the lien of the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding anything in this Section to the contrary, the Master Servicer or any Subservicer
shall not enforce any prepayment charge to the extent that such enforcement would violate any applicable law. In the event of any such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make timely P&I Advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the
scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements unless otherwise agreed to by the Holders of the Classes of Certificates affected thereby; provided,
however, that no such extension shall be made if any P&I Advance would be a Nonrecoverable Advance. Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer may also waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to
the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Master Servicer’s determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the
interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated 

  
 72 









 
Realized Loss that might result absent such action), provided, however, that the Master Servicer may not modify materially or permit any Subservicer to modify any Mortgage Loan, including
without limitation any modification that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of any principal or interest (unless in connection with the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan or except in connection with prepayments to the extent
that such reamortization is not inconsistent with the terms of the Mortgage Loan), capitalize any amounts owing on the Mortgage Loan by adding such amount to the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, or extend the final maturity date
of such Mortgage Loan, unless such Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable. No such modification shall reduce the Mortgage Rate on a Mortgage Loan below the sum of the rates at
which the Servicing Fee and the Subservicing Fee accrue. Also, the addition of any amount owing on a Mortgage Loan to the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan shall be implemented in accordance with the Program Guide and may be
implemented only by Subservicers that have been approved by the Master Servicer for such purposes. Any modification made pursuant to any of the four preceding sentences that is not made pursuant to the Home Affordable Modification Program
established pursuant to the Emergency Economic Stabilization Act of 2008, as amended, as determined by the [Depositor][Company] or the Master Servicer, shall only be permitted if the [Depositor][Company] or the Master Servicer obtains and delivers
to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, to the effect that such modification will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F of the
Code or cause any REMIC formed under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC (for federal (or any applicable State or local) income tax purposes) at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. The Trustee shall have no
obligation to determine whether any such Opinion of Counsel is required with respect to the modification of any Mortgage Loans. In connection with any Curtailment of a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, to the extent not inconsistent with the terms
of the Mortgage Note and local law and practice, may permit the Mortgage Loan to be re-amortized such that the Monthly Payment is recalculated as an amount that will fully amortize the remaining principal balance thereof by the original maturity
date based on the original Mortgage Rate; provided, that such reamortization shall not be permitted if it would constitute a reissuance of the Mortgage Loan for federal income tax purposes. 

(b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Custodial Account in which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be
deposited on a daily basis, except as otherwise specifically provided herein, the following payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or received by it in respect of the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of
principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date): 
 (i) All payments on account of principal,
including Principal Prepayments made by Mortgagors on the Mortgage Loans and the principal component of any Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred; 

(ii) All payments on account of interest at the Adjusted Mortgage Rate on the Mortgage Loans, including the interest component of any
Subservicer Advance or of any REO Proceeds received in connection with an REO Property for which an REO Disposition has occurred; 

  
 73 









 (iii) Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation Proceeds (net of any
related expenses of the Subservicer); 
 (iv) All proceeds of any Mortgage Loans purchased pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03,
2.04 or 4.07 (including amounts received from [            ] pursuant to the last paragraph of Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement in respect of any liability, penalty or expense
that resulted from a breach of the representation and warranty set forth in clause 4(w) of the Assignment Agreement) and all amounts required to be deposited in connection with the substitution of a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to
Section 2.03 or 2.04; and 
 (v) Any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.07(c) and any
payments or collections received in the nature of prepayment charges. 
 The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial
Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments on the Mortgage Loans which are not part of the Trust (consisting of payments in respect of principal and interest on the
Mortgage Loans received prior to the Cut-off Date) and payments or collections consisting of late payment charges or assumption fees may but need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Custodial Account. In the event any amount not required
to be deposited in the Custodial Account is so deposited, the Master Servicer may at any time withdraw such amount from the Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Further, the Master Servicer shall, not less
frequently than every two Business Days, remove from the Custodial Account any funds relating to Mortgage Loans that are owned by the Master Servicer. 
 With respect to Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, REO Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and the proceeds of the purchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 and 4.07 received
in any calendar month, the Master Servicer may elect to treat such amounts as included in the Available Distribution Amount for the Distribution Date in the month of receipt, but is not obligated to do so. If the Master Servicer so elects, such
amounts will be deemed to have been received (and any related Realized Loss shall be deemed to have occurred) on the last day of the month prior to the receipt thereof. 
 (c) The Master Servicer shall use its best efforts to cause the institution maintaining the Custodial Account to invest the funds in the Custodial Account attributable to the Mortgage Loans in Permitted
Investments which shall mature not later than the Certificate Account Deposit Date next following the date of such investment (with the exception of the Amount Held for Future Distribution) and which shall not be sold or disposed of prior to their
maturities. All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any losses
incurred in respect of any such investments attributable to the investment of amounts in respect of the Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Master Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized. 

  
 74 









 (d) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee and the Depositor of any change in
the location of the Custodial Account and the location of the Certificate Account prior to the use thereof. 
 Section
3.08. Subservicing Accounts; Servicing Accounts 
 (a) In those cases where a Subservicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall cause the Subservicer, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to establish and maintain one or more Subservicing Accounts which shall be an Eligible Account or, if such account is not
an Eligible Account, shall generally satisfy the requirements of the Program Guide and be otherwise acceptable to the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency. The Subservicer will be required thereby to deposit into the Subservicing Account on a
daily basis all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by the Subservicer, less its Subservicing Fees and unreimbursed Subservicer Advances, Servicing Advances and expenses, to the extent permitted by the Subservicing Agreement. If the Subservicing
Account is not an Eligible Account, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received such monies upon receipt thereof by the Subservicer. The Subservicer shall not be required to deposit in the Subservicing Account payments or collections in the
nature of late charges or assumption fees, or payments or collections received in the nature of prepayment charges to the extent that the Subservicer is entitled to retain such amounts pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement. On or before the date
specified in the Program Guide, but in no event later than the Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall cause the Subservicer, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to remit to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Custodial Account all
funds held in the Subservicing Account with respect to each Mortgage Loan serviced by such Subservicer that are required to be remitted to the Master Servicer. The Subservicer will also be required, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to make
Subservicer Advances on such scheduled date of remittance amounts equal to any scheduled monthly installments of principal and interest less its Subservicing Fees on any Mortgage Loans for which payment was not received by the Subservicer. This
obligation to advance with respect to each Mortgage Loan will continue up to and including the first of the month following the date on which the related Mortgaged Property is sold at a foreclosure sale or is acquired by the Trust by deed in lieu of
foreclosure or otherwise. All such advances received by the Master Servicer shall be deposited promptly by it in the Custodial Account. 
 (b) The Subservicer may also be required, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreement, to remit to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Custodial Account interest at the Adjusted Mortgage Rate (or Modified
Net Mortgage Rate plus the rate per annum at which the Servicing Fee, if any, accrues in the case of a Modified Mortgage Loan) on any Curtailment received by such Subservicer in respect of a Mortgage Loan from the related Mortgagor during any month
that is to be applied by the Subservicer to reduce the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan as of the first day of such month, from the date of application of such Curtailment to the first day of the following month. Any amounts
paid by a Subservicer pursuant to the preceding sentence shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation and shall be subject to its withdrawal or order from time to time pursuant to Sections 3.10(a)(iv) and
(v). 

  
 75 









 (c) In addition to the Custodial Account and the Certificate Account, the Master Servicer
shall for any Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, and shall cause the Subservicers for Subserviced Mortgage Loans to, establish and maintain one or more Servicing Accounts and deposit and retain therein all collections from the Mortgagors (or advances
from Subservicers) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, Primary Insurance Policy premiums, if applicable, or comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Each Servicing Account shall satisfy the requirements for a
Subservicing Account and, to the extent permitted by the Program Guide or as is otherwise acceptable to the Master Servicer, may also function as a Subservicing Account. Withdrawals of amounts related to the Mortgage Loans from the Servicing
Accounts may be made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, Primary Insurance Policy premiums, if applicable, or comparable items, to reimburse the Master Servicer or Subservicer out of related collections
for any payments made pursuant to Sections 3.11 (with respect to the Primary Insurance Policy) and 3.12(a) (with respect to hazard insurance), to refund to any Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages, to pay interest, if
required, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account or to clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 9.01 or in accordance with the Program Guide. As part of its servicing
duties, the Master Servicer shall, and the Subservicers will, pursuant to the Subservicing Agreements, be required to pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in this account to the extent required by law. 

(d) The Master Servicer shall make Servicing Advances to pay taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, Primary Insurance Policy
premiums, if applicable, or comparable items on all Mortgage Loans that are not timely paid by the Mortgagors or advanced by the Subservicers on the date when the tax, premium or other cost for which such payment is intended is due, but the Master
Servicer shall be required so to advance only to the extent that such Servicing Advances, in the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer, would not be Nonrecoverable Advances. 

Section 3.09. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Mortgage Loans 

In the event that compliance with this Section 3.09 shall make any Class of Certificates legal for investment by federally
insured savings and loan associations, the Master Servicer shall provide, or cause the Subservicers to provide, to the Trustee, the Office of Thrift Supervision or the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners thereof access to the documentation
regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision, such access being afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices designated by the Master
Servicer. The Master Servicer shall permit such representatives to photocopy any such documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge reasonably approximating the cost of such photocopying to the Master Servicer. 

Section 3.10. Permitted Withdrawals from the Custodial Account 

(a) The Master Servicer may, from time to time as provided herein, make withdrawals from the Custodial Account of amounts on deposit
therein pursuant to Section 3.07 that are attributable to the Mortgage Loans for the following purposes: 

  
 76 









 (i) to make deposits into the Certificate Account in the amounts and in the manner provided
for in Section 4.01; 
 (ii) to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for previously unreimbursed Advances,
Subservicer Advances or other expenses made pursuant to Sections 3.01, 3.07(a), 3.08, 3.11, 3.12(a), 3.14 and 4.04 or otherwise reimbursable pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, such withdrawal right being limited to amounts received on the
related Mortgage Loans (including, for this purpose, REO Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and proceeds from the purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 or 4.07) which represent (A) Late
Collections of Monthly Payments for which any such advance was made in the case of Subservicer Advances or Advances pursuant to Section 4.04 and (B) recoveries of amounts in respect of which such advances were made in the case of Servicing
Advances; 
 (iii) to pay to itself or the related Subservicer (if not previously retained by such Subservicer) out of each
payment received by the Master Servicer on account of interest on a Mortgage Loan as contemplated by Sections 3.14 and 3.16, an amount equal to that remaining portion of any such payment as to interest (but not in excess of the Servicing Fee and the
Subservicing Fee, if not previously retained) which, when deducted, will result in the remaining amount of such interest being interest at a rate per annum equal to the Net Mortgage Rate (or Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified
Mortgage Loan) on the amount specified in the amortization schedule of the related Mortgage Loan as the principal balance thereof at the beginning of the period respecting which such interest was paid after giving effect to any previous
Curtailments; 
 (iv) to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any interest or investment income earned on funds
and other property deposited in or credited to the Custodial Account that it is entitled to withdraw pursuant to Section 3.07(c); 
 (v) to pay to itself as additional servicing compensation any Foreclosure Profits, and any amounts remitted by Subservicers as interest in respect of Curtailments pursuant to Section 3.08(b);

 (vi) to pay to itself, a Subservicer, a Seller, [            ],
the Depositor or any other appropriate Person, as the case may be, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased or otherwise transferred pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03, 2.04, 4.07 or 9.01,
all amounts received thereon and not required to be distributed to Certificateholders as of the date on which the related Stated Principal Balance or Purchase Price is determined; 

(vii) to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for (1) any Nonrecoverable Advance, (2) any P&I Advance made with
respect to a Mortgage Loan that is 90 or more days Delinquent or (3) any made in connection with a modified Mortgage Loan that is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, default is reasonably foreseeable pursuant to
Section 3.07(a), to the extent the amount of the Advance was added to the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan in a prior calendar month; 

  
 77 









 (viii) to reimburse itself or the Depositor for any advance made and expenses incurred by
it or the Depositor, to the extent such advances or expenses are reimburseable to it or the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement (including, but not limited to, amounts reimburseable (A) pursuant to Section 3.01(a), 3.01(b), 3.11, 3.13,
3.14(c), 6.03 or 10.01 and (B) in connection with enforcing any repurchase, substitution or indemnification obligation of any Seller (other than the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor) pursuant to the related Seller’s Agreement);

 (ix) to reimburse itself for amounts expended by it (a) pursuant to Section 3.14 in good faith in connection with
the restoration of property damaged by an Uninsured Cause, and (b) in connection with the liquidation of a Mortgage Loan or disposition of an REO Property to the extent not otherwise reimbursed pursuant to clause (ii) or (viii) above;
and 
 (x) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Custodial Account that was not required to be deposited therein pursuant to
Section 3.07, including any payoff fees or penalties or any other additional amounts payable to the Master Servicer or Subservicer pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Note. 

(b) Since, in connection with withdrawals pursuant to clauses (ii), (iii), (v) and (vi), the Master Servicer’s entitlement
thereto is limited to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the
Custodial Account pursuant to such clauses. 
 Section 3.11. Maintenance of Primary Insurance Coverage 

(a) The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Subservicer to take, any action which would result in noncoverage under any
applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Master Servicer or Subservicer, would have been covered thereunder. To the extent coverage is available, the Master Servicer shall keep or cause to be kept in full
force and effect each such Primary Insurance Policy until the principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan secured by a Mortgaged Property is reduced to 80% or less of the Appraised Value at origination in the case of such a Mortgage Loan having a
Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination in excess of 80%, provided that such Primary Insurance Policy was in place as of the Cut-off Date and the Master Servicer had knowledge of such Primary Insurance Policy. The Master Servicer shall not cancel or
refuse to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy applicable to a Nonsubserviced Mortgage Loan, or consent to any Subservicer canceling or refusing to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy applicable to a Mortgage Loan subserviced by it, that is
in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force hereunder unless the replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or non-renewed policy is maintained with an insurer whose claims-paying
ability is acceptable to each Rating Agency for mortgage pass-through certificates having a rating equal to or better than the lower of the then-current rating or the rating assigned to the Certificates as of the Closing Date by such Rating Agency.


  
 78 









 (b) In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans,
the Master Servicer agrees to present or to cause the related Subservicer to present, on behalf of the Master Servicer, the Subservicer, if any, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Insurance Policies, in a
timely manner in accordance with such policies, and, in this regard, to take or cause to be taken such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to
Section 3.07, any Insurance Proceeds collected by or remitted to the Master Servicer under any Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10. 

Section 3.12. Maintenance of Fire Insurance and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage 

(a) The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is
equal to the lesser of the principal balance owing on such Mortgage Loan or 100% of the insurable value of the improvements; provided, however, that such coverage may not be less than the minimum amount required to fully compensate for any
loss or damage on a replacement cost basis. To the extent it may do so without breaching the related Subservicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall replace any Subservicer that does not cause such insurance, to the extent it is available, to be
maintained. The Master Servicer shall also cause to be maintained on property acquired upon foreclosure, or deed in lieu of foreclosure, of any Mortgage Loan, fire insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the amount
necessary to avoid the application of any co-insurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy. Pursuant to Section 3.07, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to
the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or property thus acquired or amounts released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Master Servicer’s normal servicing procedures) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account,
subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the amount owing under
the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of related late payments by the Mortgagor or out of Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds to the
extent permitted by Section 3.10. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of a Mortgage Loan other than pursuant to such
applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. Whenever the improvements securing a Mortgage Loan are located at the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan in a federally
designated special flood hazard area, the Master Servicer shall cause flood insurance (to the extent available) to be maintained in respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the amount required to
compensate for any loss or damage to the Mortgaged Property on a replacement cost basis and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the
area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program). 
 In the event that the Master Servicer
shall obtain and maintain a blanket fire insurance policy with extended coverage insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the first sentence of


  
 79 









 
this Section 3.12(a), it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been
maintained on the related Mortgaged Property a policy complying with the first sentence of this Section 3.12(a) and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, deposit in the Certificate Account the amount
not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause. Any such deposit by the Master Servicer shall be made on the Certificate Account Deposit Date next preceding the Distribution Date which occurs in the month following
the month in which payments under any such policy would have been deposited in the Custodial Account. In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present, on behalf of itself,
the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy. 
 (b) The Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain
at its own expense and keep in full force and effect throughout the term of this Agreement a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy covering the Master Servicer’s officers and employees and other persons acting on
behalf of the Master Servicer in connection with its activities under this Agreement. The amount of coverage shall be at least equal to the coverage that would be required by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, whichever is greater, with respect to the
Master Servicer if the Master Servicer were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. In the event that any such bond or policy ceases to be in effect, the Master Servicer shall obtain a comparable replacement
bond or policy from an issuer or insurer, as the case may be, meeting the requirements, if any, of the Program Guide and acceptable to the Depositor. Coverage of the Master Servicer under a policy or bond obtained by an Affiliate of the Master
Servicer and providing the coverage required by this Section 3.12(b) shall satisfy the requirements of this Section 3.12(b). 
 Section 3.13. Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption and Modification Agreements; Certain Assignments 
 (a) When any Mortgaged Property is conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer or Subservicer, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance, shall enforce any due-on-sale clause contained in any
Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to the extent permitted under applicable law and governmental regulations, but only to the extent that such enforcement will not adversely affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required Insurance Policy or otherwise
adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing: 
 (i) the Master Servicer shall not
be deemed to be in default under this Section 3.13(a) by reason of any transfer or assumption which the Master Servicer is restricted by law from preventing; and 
 (ii) if the Master Servicer determines that it is reasonably likely that any Mortgagor will bring, or if any Mortgagor does bring, legal action to declare invalid or otherwise avoid enforcement of a
due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, the Master Servicer shall not be required to enforce the due-on-sale clause or to contest such action. 

  
 80 









 (b) Subject to the Master Servicer’s duty to enforce any due-on-sale clause to the
extent set forth in Section 3.13(a), in any case in which a Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such Person is to enter into an assumption or modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage
which requires the signature of the Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required releasing the Mortgagor from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer is authorized, subject to the requirements of the sentence
next following, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the assumption agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed and such modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or other
instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any applicable laws regarding assumptions or the transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such Person; provided,
however, none of such terms and requirements shall both constitute a “significant modification” effecting an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under the Code (or final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations promulgated
thereunder) and cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” after the Startup Date under the REMIC Provisions. The
Master Servicer shall execute and deliver such documents only if it reasonably determines that (i) its execution and delivery thereof will not conflict with or violate any terms of this Agreement or cause the unpaid balance and interest on the
Mortgage Loan to be uncollectible in whole or in part, (ii) any required consents of insurers under any Required Insurance Policies have been obtained and (iii) subsequent to the closing of the transaction involving the assumption or
transfer (A) the Mortgage Loan will continue to be secured by a first mortgage lien pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage (or, with respect to any junior lien, a junior lien of the same priority in relation to any senior lien on such Mortgage
Loan), (B) such transaction will not adversely affect the coverage under any Required Insurance Policies, (C) the Mortgage Loan will fully amortize over the remaining term thereof, (D) no material term of the Mortgage Loan (including
the interest rate on the Mortgage Loan) will be altered nor will the term of the Mortgage Loan be changed and (E) if the seller/transferor of the Mortgaged Property is to be released from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the buyer/transferee of
the Mortgaged Property would be qualified to assume the Mortgage Loan based on generally comparable credit quality and such release will not (based on the Master Servicer’s or Subservicer’s good faith determination) adversely affect the
collectability of the Mortgage Loan. Upon receipt of appropriate instructions from the Master Servicer in accordance with the foregoing, the Trustee shall execute any necessary instruments for such assumption or substitution of liability as directed
by the Master Servicer. Upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by such documents, the Master Servicer shall cause the originals or true and correct copies of the assumption agreement, the release (if any), or the modification or
supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian and deposited with the Mortgage File for such Mortgage Loan. Any fee collected by the Master Servicer or such related Subservicer for entering into an
assumption or substitution of liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer or such Subservicer as additional servicing compensation. 
 (c) The Master Servicer or the related Subservicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled to approve a request from a Mortgagor for a partial release of the related Mortgaged Property, the granting of an
easement thereon in favor of another Person, any alteration or demolition of the related Mortgaged Property or other similar matters if it has determined, 

  
 81 









 
exercising its good faith business judgment in the same manner as it would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan, that the security for, and the timely and full collectability of,
such Mortgage Loan would not be adversely affected thereby and that any REMIC created hereunder would not fail to continue to qualify as a REMIC under the Code as a result thereof and (subject to Section 10.01(f)) that no tax on
“prohibited transactions” or “contributions” after the Startup Date would be imposed on any REMIC created hereunder as a result thereof. Any fee collected by the Master Servicer or the related Subservicer for processing such a
request will be retained by the Master Servicer or such Subservicer as additional servicing compensation. 
 (d) Subject to any
other applicable terms and conditions of this Agreement, the Trustee and Master Servicer shall be entitled to approve an assignment in lieu of satisfaction with respect to any Mortgage Loan, provided the obligee with respect to such Mortgage Loan
following such proposed assignment provides the Trustee and Master Servicer with a “Lender Certification for Assignment of Mortgage Loan” in the form attached hereto as Exhibit M, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and
Master Servicer, providing the following: (i) that the Mortgage Loan is secured by Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction in which an assignment in lieu of satisfaction is required to preserve lien priority, minimize or avoid mortgage
recording taxes or otherwise comply with, or facilitate a refinancing under, the laws of such jurisdiction; (ii) that the substance of the assignment is, and is intended to be, a refinancing of such Mortgage Loan and that the form of the
transaction is solely to comply with, or facilitate the transaction under, such local laws; (iii) that the Mortgage Loan following the proposed assignment will have a rate of interest at least 0.25% below or above the rate of interest on such
Mortgage Loan prior to such proposed assignment; and (iv) that such assignment is at the request of the borrower under the related Mortgage Loan. Upon approval of an assignment in lieu of satisfaction with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the
Master Servicer shall receive cash in an amount equal to the unpaid principal balance of and accrued interest on such Mortgage Loan and the Master Servicer shall treat such amount as a Principal Prepayment in Full with respect to such Mortgage Loan
for all purposes hereof. 
 Section 3.14. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans 

(a) The Master Servicer shall foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert (which may include an REO Acquisition) the ownership of
properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.07. Alternatively, the Master Servicer may
take other actions in respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan, which may include (i) accepting a short sale (a payoff of the Mortgage Loan for an amount less than the total amount contractually owed in order to facilitate a sale of the Mortgaged
Property by the Mortgagor) or permitting a short refinancing (a payoff of the Mortgage Loan for an amount less than the total amount contractually owed in order to facilitate refinancing transactions by the Mortgagor not involving a sale of the
Mortgaged Property), (ii) arranging for a repayment plan or (iii) agreeing to a modification in accordance with Section 3.07. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion or action, the Master Servicer shall, consistent
with Section 3.11, follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or advisable, as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and as shall be required or permitted by the Program Guide; provided that
the Master Servicer shall not be liable in any respect hereunder if the Master Servicer is acting in connection with any such foreclosure 

  
 82 









 
or other conversion or action in a manner that is consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer, however, shall not be required to expend its own funds or incur other
reimbursable charges in connection with any foreclosure, or attempted foreclosure which is not completed, or towards the correction of any default on a related senior mortgage loan, or towards the restoration of any property unless it shall
determine (i) that such restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan to Holders of Certificates of one or more Classes after reimbursement to itself for such expenses or charges and
(ii) that such expenses and charges will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, or REO Proceeds (respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to
Section 3.10, whether or not such expenses and charges are actually recoverable from related Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or REO Proceeds). In the event of such a determination by the Master Servicer pursuant to this
Section 3.14(a), the Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of its funds so expended pursuant to Section 3.10. 
 In addition, the Master Servicer may pursue any remedies that may be available in connection with a breach of a representation and warranty with respect to any such Mortgage Loan in accordance with
Sections 2.03 and 2.04. However, the Master Servicer is not required to continue to pursue both foreclosure (or similar remedies) with respect to the Mortgage Loans and remedies in connection with a breach of a representation and warranty if the
Master Servicer determines in its reasonable discretion that one such remedy is more likely to result in a greater recovery as to the Mortgage Loan. Upon the occurrence of a Cash Liquidation or REO Disposition, following the deposit in the Custodial
Account of all Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and other payments and recoveries referred to in the definition of “Cash Liquidation” or “REO Disposition,” as applicable, upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee or any Custodian, as the case may be, shall release to the Master Servicer the related Custodial File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by the Master Servicer, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Master Servicer or its designee, as the case may be, the related Mortgage Loan, and thereafter such Mortgage Loan shall not be part of
the Trust. Notwithstanding the foregoing or any other provision of this Agreement, in the Master Servicer’s sole discretion with respect to any defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property as to either of the following provisions, (i) a Cash
Liquidation or REO Disposition may be deemed to have occurred if substantially all amounts expected by the Master Servicer to be received in connection with the related defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property have been received, and (ii) for
purposes of determining the amount of any Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, REO Proceeds or other unscheduled collections or the amount of any Realized Loss, the Master Servicer may take into account minimal amounts of additional receipts
expected to be received or any estimated additional liquidation expenses expected to be incurred in connection with the related defaulted Mortgage Loan or REO Property. 
 (b) In the event that title to any Mortgaged Property is acquired by the Trust as an REO Property by foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the
Trustee or to its nominee on behalf of Certificateholders. Notwithstanding any such acquisition of title and cancellation of the related Mortgage Loan, such REO Property shall (except as otherwise expressly provided herein) be considered to be an
Outstanding Mortgage Loan held in the Trust until such time as the REO Property shall be sold. 

  
 83 









 
Consistent with the foregoing for purposes of all calculations hereunder so long as such REO Property shall be considered to be an Outstanding Mortgage Loan it shall be assumed that,
notwithstanding that the indebtedness evidenced by the related Mortgage Note shall have been discharged, such Mortgage Note and the related amortization schedule in effect at the time of any such acquisition of title (after giving effect to any
previous Curtailments and before any adjustment thereto by reason of any bankruptcy or similar proceeding or any moratorium or similar waiver or grace period) remain in effect. 

(c) In the event that the Trust acquires any REO Property as aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trust shall dispose of such REO Property as soon as practicable, giving due consideration to the interests of the Certificateholders, but in all cases, within three full years after the taxable
year of its acquisition by the Trust for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code (or such shorter period as may be necessary under applicable state (including any state in which such property is located) law to maintain the status of each
REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC under applicable state law and avoid taxes resulting from such property failing to be foreclosure property under applicable state law) or, at the expense of the Trust, request, more than 60 days before the day on
which such grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of such grace period unless the Master Servicer (subject to Section 10.01(f)) obtains for the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Master Servicer, to the
effect that the holding by the Trust of such REO Property subsequent to such period will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC created hereunder to
fail to qualify as a REMIC (for federal (or any applicable State or local) income tax purposes) at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, in which case the Trust may continue to hold such REO Property (subject to any conditions contained in
such Opinion of Counsel). The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Custodial Account for any costs incurred in obtaining such Opinion of Counsel, as provided in Section 3.10. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such REO Property to fail to
qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject any REMIC created hereunder to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property,
including any taxes imposed by reason of Section 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Master Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust with respect to the imposition of any such taxes. 

(d) The proceeds of any Cash Liquidation, REO Disposition or purchase or repurchase of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, as well as any recovery (other than Subsequent Recoveries) resulting from a collection of Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or REO Proceeds, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Master
Servicer or the related Subservicer in accordance with Section 3.10(a)(ii); second, to all Servicing Fees and Subservicing Fees payable therefrom (and the Master Servicer and the Subservicer shall have no claims for any deficiencies with
respect to such fees which result from the foregoing allocation); third, to the Certificateholders to the extent of accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, and any related REO Imputed Interest, at the Net Mortgage Rate (or the Modified Net
Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified Mortgage Loan), to the Due Date in the related Due Period prior to the Distribution Date on which such amounts 

  
 84 









 
are to be distributed; fourth, to the Certificateholders as a recovery of principal on the Mortgage Loan (or REO Property); fifth, [to the Certificate Insurer for reimbursement for any payments
made pursuant to the Certificate Guaranty Insurance Policy to the extent not reimbursed pursuant to Section 4.02(c)(iii) and sixth,] to Foreclosure Profits. 
 (e) In the event of a default on a Mortgage Loan one or more of whose obligors is not a United States Person, in connection with any foreclosure or acquisition of a deed in lieu of foreclosure (together,
“foreclosure”) in respect of such Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall cause compliance with the provisions of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(d)(3) (or any successor thereto) necessary to assure that no withholding tax
obligation arises with respect to the proceeds of such foreclosure except to the extent, if any, that proceeds of such foreclosure are required to be remitted to the obligors on such Mortgage Loan. 

Section 3.15. Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Custodial Files 

(a) Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of a
notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer shall immediately notify the Trustee (if it holds the related Custodial File) or the Custodian by a certification of a Servicing Officer
(which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.07 have been or will be
so deposited), substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G, or, in the case of the Custodian, an electronic request in a form acceptable to the Custodian, requesting delivery to it of the Custodial File. Upon receipt of such
certification and request, the Trustee shall promptly release, or cause the Custodian to release, the related Custodial File to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer is authorized to execute and deliver to the Mortgagor the request for
reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage, together with the Mortgage Note with, as appropriate, written evidence of cancellation thereon and to cause the removal
from the registration on the MERS® System of such Mortgage and to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee
and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full release, including any applicable UCC termination statements. No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of
satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account. 
 (b) From time
to time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian, with a copy to the Trustee, a certificate of a Servicing Officer substantially in the form attached as
Exhibit G hereto, or, in the case of the Custodian, an electronic request in a form acceptable to the Custodian, requesting that possession of all, or any document constituting part of, the Custodial File be released to the Master Servicer and
certifying as to the reason for such release and that such release will not invalidate any insurance coverage provided in respect of the Mortgage Loan under any Required Insurance Policy. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Trustee shall deliver, or
cause the Custodian to deliver, the Custodial File or any document therein to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall cause each Custodial File or any document therein so released to be returned to the Trustee, or the Custodian as agent for
the Trustee when the need therefor by the 

  
 85 









 
Master Servicer no longer exists, unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Custodial Account or
(ii) the Custodial File or such document has been delivered directly or through a Subservicer to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other
proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer has delivered directly or through a Subservicer to the Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and
address of the Person to which such Custodial File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. In the event of the liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall deliver the Request for Release with respect
thereto to the Master Servicer upon the Trustee’s receipt of notification from the Master Servicer of the deposit of the related Liquidation Proceeds in the Custodial Account. 

(c) The Trustee or the Master Servicer on the Trustee’s behalf shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer, if necessary, any
court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note
or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. Together with such documents or pleadings (if signed by the Trustee),
the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and certifying as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the
execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee shall not invalidate any insurance coverage under any Required Insurance Policy or invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of
the foreclosure or trustee’s sale. 
 Section 3.16. Servicing and Other Compensation; Compensating Interest

 (a) The Master Servicer, as compensation for its activities hereunder, shall be entitled to receive on each Distribution Date
the amounts provided for by clauses (iii), (iv), (v) and (vi) of Section 3.10(a), subject to clause (e) below. The amount of servicing compensation provided for in such clauses shall be accounted for on a Mortgage
Loan-by-Mortgage Loan basis. In the event that Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and REO Proceeds (net of amounts reimbursable therefrom pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(ii)) in respect of a Cash Liquidation or REO Disposition exceed the
unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan plus unpaid interest accrued thereon (including REO Imputed Interest) at a per annum rate equal to the related Net Mortgage Rate (or the Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of a Modified Mortgage
Loan), [plus the Certificate Insurere Premium Modified Rate,] the Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain therefrom and to pay to itself and/or the related Subservicer, any Foreclosure Profits and any Servicing Fee or Subservicing Fee considered
to be accrued but unpaid. 
 (b) Additional servicing compensation in the form of late payment charges, assumption fees,
investment income on amounts in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or otherwise shall be retained by the Master Servicer or the Subservicer to the extent provided herein, subject to clause (e) below. Prepayment charges shall be
deposited into the Certificate Account and shall be paid on each Distribution Date to the holders of the Class SB Certificates. 

  
 86 









 (c) The Master Servicer shall be required to pay, or cause to be paid, all expenses incurred
by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including payment of premiums for the Primary Insurance Policies, if any, to the extent such premiums are not required to be paid by the related Mortgagors, and the fees and expenses of
the Trustee and any Custodian) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided in Sections 3.10 and 3.14. 
 (d) [Reserved]. 
 (e) Notwithstanding clauses (a) and (b) above, the
amount of servicing compensation that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive for its activities hereunder for the period ending on each Distribution Date shall be reduced (but not below zero) by the amount of Compensating Interest (if any)
for such Distribution Date used to cover Prepayment Interest Shortfalls as provided in Section 3.16(f) below. Such reduction shall be applied during such period as follows: first, to any Servicing Fee or Subservicing Fee to which the
Master Servicer is entitled pursuant to Section 3.10(a)(iii); and second, to any income or gain realized from any investment of funds held in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account to which the Master Servicer is entitled pursuant to
Sections 3.07(c) or 4.01(b), respectively. In making such reduction, the Master Servicer shall not withdraw from the Custodial Account any such amount representing all or a portion of the Servicing Fee to which it is entitled pursuant to
Section 3.10(a)(iii) and shall not withdraw from the Custodial Account or Certificate Account any such amount to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 3.07(c) or 4.01(b). 

(f) With respect to any Distribution Date, Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans will be covered first, by the Master
Servicer, but only to the extent such Prepayment Interest Shortfalls do not exceed the Prepayment Offset Amount. 
 Section
3.17. Reports to the Trustee and the Depositor 
 Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Master
Servicer shall forward to the Trustee and the Depositor a statement, certified by a Servicing Officer, setting forth the status of the Custodial Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date as it relates to the Mortgage Loans and
showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate of deposits in or withdrawals from the Custodial Account in respect of the Mortgage Loans for each category of deposit specified in Section 3.07 and each category of withdrawal
specified in Section 3.10. 
 Section 3.18. Annual Statement as to Compliance and Servicing Assessment

 The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee on or before the earlier of (a) March 31 of each year
or (b) with respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor’s annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission, the date on which the annual
report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission, (i) a servicing assessment as described in Section 4.03(f)(ii) and (ii) a servicer compliance statement,
signed by an authorized officer of the Master Servicer, as described in Items 1122(a), 1122(b) and 1123 of Regulation AB, to the effect that: 

  
 87 









 (i) A review of the Master Servicer’s activities during the reporting period and of its
performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision. 
 (ii) To the best of such officer’s
knowledge, based on such review, the Master Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout the reporting period or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material
respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status thereof. 
 The Master Servicer shall use
commercially reasonable efforts to obtain from all other parties participating in the servicing function any additional certifications required under Item 1123 of Regulation AB to the extent required to be included in a Report on Form 10-K;
provided, however, that a failure to obtain such certifications shall not be a breach of the Master Servicer’s duties hereunder if any such party fails to deliver such a certification. 

Section 3.19. Annual Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Report 

On or before the earlier of (a) March 31 of each year or (b) with respect to any calendar year during which the Depositor’s
annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission, the date on which the annual report on Form 10-K is required to be filed in accordance with the Exchange Act and
the rules and regulations of the Commission, the Master Servicer at its expense shall cause a firm of independent public accountants which shall be members of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a report to the
Depositor and the Trustee the attestation required under Item 1122(b) of Regulation AB. In rendering such statement, such firm may rely, as to matters relating to the direct servicing of mortgage loans by Subservicers, upon comparable
statements for examinations conducted by independent public accountants substantially in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (rendered within one year of such statement) with respect to
such Subservicers. 
 Section 3.20. Right of the Depositor in Respect of the Master Servicer 

The Master Servicer shall afford the Depositor and the Trustee, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours access to all records
maintained by the Master Servicer in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Master Servicer responsible for such obligations. Upon request, the Master Servicer shall furnish the Depositor with its most recent
financial statements and such other information as the Master Servicer possesses regarding its business, affairs, property and condition, financial or otherwise. The Master Servicer shall also cooperate with all reasonable requests for information
including, but not limited to, notices, tapes and copies of files, regarding itself, the Mortgage Loans or the Certificates from any Person or Persons identified by the Depositor or
[            ]. The Depositor may enforce the obligation of the Master Servicer hereunder and may, but it is not obligated to, perform or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted
obligation of the Master Servicer hereunder or exercise the rights of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of such


  
 88 









 
performance by the Depositor or its designee. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall have the responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer and the
Depositor is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise. 
 Section
3.21. Advance Facility 
 (a) The Master Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into a financing or other facility
(any such arrangement, an “Advance Facility”) under which (1) the Master Servicer sells, assigns or pledges to another Person (an “Advancing Person”) the Master Servicer’s rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed
for any Advances or Servicing Advances and/or (2) an Advancing Person agrees to fund some or all Advances and/or Servicing Advances required to be made by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. No consent of the Depositor, the Trustee,
the Certificateholders or any other party shall be required before the Master Servicer may enter into an Advance Facility. Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which an Advancing Person agrees to fund Advances and/or Servicing
Advances on the Master Servicer’s behalf, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make Advances and Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement. If the Master Servicer enters into an Advance
Facility, and for so long as an Advancing Person remains entitled to receive reimbursement for any Advances including Nonrecoverable Advances (“Advance Reimbursement Amounts”) and/or Servicing Advances including Nonrecoverable Advances
(“Servicing Advance Reimbursement Amounts” and together with Advance Reimbursement Amounts, “Reimbursement Amounts”) (in each case to the extent such type of Reimbursement Amount is included in the Advance Facility), as
applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, then the Master Servicer shall identify such Reimbursement Amounts consistent with the reimbursement rights set forth in Section 3.10(a)(ii) and (vii) and remit such Reimbursement Amounts in
accordance with this Section 3.21 or otherwise in accordance with the documentation establishing the Advance Facility to such Advancing Person or to a trustee, agent or custodian (an “Advance Facility Trustee”) designated by such
Advancing Person in an Advance Facility Notice described below in Section 3.21(b). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if so required pursuant to the terms of the Advance Facility, the Master Servicer may direct, and if so directed in writing the
Trustee is hereby authorized to and shall pay to the Advance Facility Trustee the Reimbursement Amounts identified pursuant to the preceding sentence. An Advancing Person whose obligations hereunder are limited to the funding of Advances and/or
Servicing Advances shall not be required to meet the qualifications of a Master Servicer or a Subservicer pursuant to Section 3.02(a) or 6.02(c) hereof and shall not be deemed to be a Subservicer under this Agreement. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall Advance Reimbursement Amounts or Servicing Advance Reimbursement Amounts be included in the Available Distribution Amount or distributed to Certificateholders. 

(b) If the Master Servicer enters into an Advance Facility and makes the election set forth in Section 3.21(a), the Master Servicer
and the related Advancing Person shall deliver to the Trustee a written notice and payment instruction (an “Advance Facility Notice”), providing the Trustee with written payment instructions as to where to remit Advance Reimbursement
Amounts and/or Servicing Advance Reimbursement Amounts (each to the extent such type of Reimbursement Amount is included within the Advance Facility) on subsequent Distribution Dates. The payment instruction shall require the applicable


  
 89 









 
Reimbursement Amounts to be distributed to the Advancing Person or to an Advance Facility Trustee designated in the Advance Facility Notice. An Advance Facility Notice may only be terminated by
the joint written direction of the Master Servicer and the related Advancing Person (and any related Advance Facility Trustee). 

(c) Reimbursement Amounts shall consist solely of amounts in respect of Advances and/or Servicing Advances made with respect to the
Mortgage Loans for which the Master Servicer would be permitted to reimburse itself in accordance with Section 3.10(a)(ii) and (vii) hereof, assuming the Master Servicer or the Advancing Person had made the related Advance(s) and/or
Servicing Advance(s). Notwithstanding the foregoing, except with respect to reimbursement of Nonrecoverable Advances as set forth in Section 3.10(c) of this Agreement, no Person shall be entitled to reimbursement from funds held in the
Certificate Account for future distribution to Certificateholders pursuant to this Agreement. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee shall have any duty or liability with respect to the calculation of any Reimbursement Amount, nor shall the Depositor
or the Trustee have any responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the Advance Facility and the Depositor shall not have any responsibility to track, monitor or verify the payment of Reimbursement Amounts to the related Advancing
Person or Advance Facility Trustee. The Master Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor master servicer a detailed accounting on a loan-by-loan basis as to amounts advanced by, sold, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any
Advancing Person. The successor master servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information provided by the Master Servicer and the successor master servicer shall not be liable for any errors in such information. 

(d) Upon the direction of and at the expense of the Master Servicer, the Trustee agrees to execute such acknowledgments, certificates,
and other documents reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee provided by the Master Servicer recognizing the interests of any Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee in such Reimbursement Amounts as the Master Servicer may cause to be made
subject to Advance Facilities pursuant to this Section 3.21, and such other documents in connection with such Advance Facility as may be reasonably requested from time to time by any Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee and reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee. 
 (e) Reimbursement Amounts collected with respect to each Mortgage Loan shall be allocated to
outstanding unreimbursed Advances or Servicing Advances (as the case may be) made with respect to that Mortgage Loan on a “first-in, first out” (“FIFO”) basis, subject to the qualifications set forth below: 

(i) Any successor Master Servicer to [            ] (a “Successor
Master Servicer”) and the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee shall be required to apply all amounts available in accordance with this Section 3.21(e) to the reimbursement of Advances and Servicing Advances in the manner
provided for herein; provided, however, that after the succession of a Successor Master Servicer, (A) to the extent that any Advances or Servicing Advances with respect to any particular Mortgage Loan are reimbursed from payments or
recoveries, if any, from the related Mortgagor, and Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, if any, with respect to that Mortgage Loan, reimbursement shall be made, first, to the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee in respect of
Advances and/or Servicing Advances related to that Mortgage Loan to the extent of the interest of the 

  
 90 









 
Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee in such Advances and/or Servicing Advances, second to the Master Servicer in respect of Advances and/or Servicing Advances related to that Mortgage
Loan in excess of those in which the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee Person has an interest, and third, to the Successor Master Servicer in respect of any other Advances and/or Servicing Advances related to that Mortgage Loan, from such
sources as and when collected, and (B) reimbursements of Advances and Servicing Advances that are Nonrecoverable Advances shall be made pro rata to the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee, on the one hand, and any such Successor
Master Servicer, on the other hand, on the basis of the respective aggregate outstanding unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances that are Nonrecoverable Advances owed to the Advancing Person, Advance Facility Trustee or Master Servicer pursuant
to this Agreement, on the one hand, and any such Successor Master Servicer, on the other hand, and without regard to the date on which any such Advances or Servicing Advances shall have been made. In the event that, as a result of the FIFO
allocation made pursuant to this Section 3.21(e), some or all of a Reimbursement Amount paid to the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee relates to Advances or Servicing Advances that were made by a Person other than
[            ] or the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee, then the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee shall be required to remit any portion of such Reimbursement Amount
to the Person entitled to such portion of such Reimbursement Amount. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, [            ] shall remain entitled to be reimbursed by the Advancing
Person or Advance Facility Trustee for all Advances and Servicing Advances funded by [            ] to the extent the related Reimbursement Amount(s) have not been assigned or pledged to an
Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee. The documentation establishing any Advance Facility shall require [            ] to provide to the related Advancing Person or Advance Facility
Trustee loan by loan information with respect to each Reimbursement Amount distributed to such Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee on each date of remittance thereof to such Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee, to enable the
Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee to make the FIFO allocation of each Reimbursement Amount with respect to each Mortgage Loan. 
 (ii) By way of illustration, and not by way of limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the Master Servicer resigns or is terminated at a time when the Master Servicer is a party to an Advance
Facility, and is replaced by a Successor Master Servicer, and the Successor Master Servicer directly funds Advances or Servicing Advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan and does not assign or pledge the related Reimbursement Amounts to the related
Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee, then all payments and recoveries received from the related Mortgagor or received in the form of Liquidation Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loan (including Insurance Proceeds collected in
connection with a liquidation of such Mortgage Loan) will be allocated first to the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee until the related Reimbursement Amounts attributable to such Mortgage Loan that are owed to the Master Servicer and the
Advancing Person, which were made prior to any Advances or Servicing Advances made by the Successor Master Servicer, have been reimbursed in full, at which point the Successor Master Servicer shall be entitled to retain all related Reimbursement
Amounts subsequently collected with respect to that Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3.10 of this Agreement. To the extent that the Advances or Servicing Advances are Nonrecoverable Advances to be reimbursed on an aggregate basis pursuant to
Section 3.10 of this Agreement, the reimbursement paid in this manner will be made pro rata to the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee, on the one hand, and the Successor Master Servicer, on the other hand, as described in
clause (i)(B) above. 

  
 91 









 (f) The Master Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed for all Advances and
Servicing Advances funded by the Master Servicer to the extent the related rights to be reimbursed therefor have not been sold, assigned or pledged to an Advancing Person. 
 (g) Any amendment to this Section 3.21 or to any other provision of this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an Advance Facility as described generally in this
Section 3.21, including amendments to add provisions relating to a successor master servicer, may be entered into by the Trustee, Depositor and the Master Servicer without the consent of any Certificateholder, with written confirmation from
each Rating Agency that the amendment will not result in the reduction of the ratings on any class of the Certificates below the lesser of the then current or original ratings on such Certificates and delivery of an Opinion of Counsel as required
under Section 11.01(c), notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.01 of or elsewhere in this Agreement. 

(h) Any rights of set-off that the Trust, the Trustee, the Depositor, any Successor Master Servicer or any other Person might otherwise
have against the Master Servicer under this Agreement shall not attach to any rights to be reimbursed for Advances or Servicing Advances that have been sold, transferred, pledged, conveyed or assigned to any Advancing Person. 

(i) At any time when an Advancing Person shall have ceased funding Advances and/or Servicing Advances (as the case may be) and the
Advancing Person or related Advance Facility Trustee shall have received Reimbursement Amounts sufficient in the aggregate to reimburse all Advances and/or Servicing Advances (as the case may be) the right to reimbursement for which were assigned to
the Advancing Person, then upon the delivery of a written notice signed by the Advancing Person and the Master Servicer or its successor or assign) to the Trustee terminating the Advance Facility Notice (the “Notice of Facility
Termination”), the Master Servicer or its Successor Master Servicer shall again be entitled to withdraw and retain the related Reimbursement Amounts from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.10. 

(j) After delivery of any Advance Facility Notice, and until any such Advance Facility Notice has been terminated by a Notice of Facility
Termination, this Section 3.21 may not be amended or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of the related Advancing Person.

correct for all purposes hereunder and the Trustee shall be protected in relying upon the same without any independent check or verification. 
 (b) On or before 2:00 P.M. New York time on each Certificate Account Deposit Date, the Master Servicer shall, subject to any limitations on P&I Advances set forth in this Section 4.04(b), remit
to the Trustee (for deposit in the Certificate Account) a P&I Advance in an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Monthly Payments which were due during the related Due Period and not received as of the close of business as of the related
Determination Date (with each interest portion thereof adjusted to a per annum rate equal to the Net Mortgage Rate [plus the Certificate Insurer Premium Modified Rate]), less the amount of any related Servicing Modifications, Debt Service Reductions
or Relief Act Shortfalls, on the Outstanding Mortgage Loans as of the related Due Date in the related Due Period. Such P&I Advance shall be made (i) from the Master Servicer’s own funds, or funds received therefor from the
Subservicers, (ii) from all or a portion of the Amount Held for Future Distribution in discharge of any such Advance, or (iii) in the form of any combination of clauses (i) and (ii) aggregating the required amount of such P&I
Advance; provided that no such P&I Advance shall be made if it would be a Nonrecoverable Advance; provided, further, that no P&I Advance shall be made with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is 90 or more days Delinquent. Any portion of the
Amount Held for Future Distribution so used shall be replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Certificate Account on or before 11:00 A.M. New York time on any future Certificate Account Deposit Date to the extent that funds attributable to
the Mortgage Loans that are available in the Custodial Account for deposit in the Certificate Account on such Certificate Account Deposit Date shall be less than payments to Certificateholders required to be made on the following Distribution Date.
The Master Servicer shall be entitled to use any Subservicer Advance made by a Subservicer as described in Section 3.07(b) that has been deposited in the Custodial Account on or before such Distribution Date as part of the P&I Advance made
by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 4.04. 
 In the event that the Master Servicer determines as of the
Business Day preceding any Certificate Account Deposit Date that it will be unable to deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal to the P&I Advance required to be made for the immediately succeeding Distribution Date, it shall give
notice to the Trustee of its inability to advance (such notice may be given by telecopy), not later than 3:00 P.M., New York time, on such Business Day, specifying the portion of such amount that it will be unable to deposit. Not later than 3:00
P.M., New York time, on the Certificate Account Deposit Date the Trustee shall, unless by 12:00 Noon, New York time, on such day the Trustee shall have been notified in writing (by telecopy) that the Master Servicer shall have directly or indirectly
deposited in the Certificate Account such portion of the amount of the P&I Advance as to which the Master Servicer shall have given notice pursuant to the preceding sentence, pursuant to Section 7.01, (a) terminate all of the rights
and obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement in accordance with Section 7.01 and 

  
 103









 
(b) assume the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder, including the obligation to deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal to the Advance for the immediately
succeeding Distribution Date. 
 The Trustee shall deposit all funds it receives pursuant to this Section 4.04(b) into
the Certificate Account. 
 Section 4.05. Allocation of Realized Losses 

(a) Prior to each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall determine the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, that resulted from
any Cash Liquidation, Servicing Modifications, Debt Service Reduction, Deficient Valuation or REO Disposition that occurred during the related Prepayment Period or, in the case of a Servicing Modification that constitutes a reduction of the interest
rate on a Mortgage Loan, the amount of the reduction in the interest portion of the Monthly Payment due in the month in which such Distribution Date occurs. The amount of each Realized Loss shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate.

 (b) [All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated as follows: 

 

	 	(i)	first, to Excess Cash Flow in the amounts and priority as provided in Section 4.02; 


 

	 	(ii)	second, in reduction of the Overcollateralization Amount, until such amount has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(iii)	third, the Class B Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(iv)	fourth, to the Class M-9 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(v)	fifth, to the Class M-8 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(vi)	sixth, to the Class M-7 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(vii)	seventh, to the Class M-6 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(viii)	eighth, to the Class M-5 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(ix)	ninth, to the Class M-4 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(x)	tenth, to the Class M-3 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


  
 104










	 	(xi)	eleventh, to the Class M-2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 


 

	 	(xii)	twelfth, to the Class M-1 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and 


 

	 	(xiii)	thirteenth, to the Class A Certificates on a pro rata basis, based on their then outstanding Certificate Principal Balances prior to giving effect to
distributions to be made on such Distribution Date, until the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero.] 

 (c) An allocation of a Realized Loss on a “pro rata basis” among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an allocation on a pro rata basis, among the various Classes so
specified, to each such Class of Certificates on the basis of their then outstanding Certificate Principal Balances prior to giving effect to distributions to be made on such Distribution Date in the case of the principal portion of a Realized Loss
or based on the Accrued Certificate Interest thereon payable on such Distribution Date in the case of an interest portion of a Realized Loss. Any allocation of the principal portion of Realized Losses (other than Debt Service Reductions) to the
Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates or Class B Certificates shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated, which allocation shall be deemed to have occurred on such Distribution
Date; provided, that no such reduction shall reduce the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Certificates below the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans. Allocations of the interest portions of Realized Losses (other
than any interest rate reduction resulting from a Servicing Modification) shall be made by operation of the definition of “Accrued Certificate Interest” for each Class for such Distribution Date. Allocations of the interest portion of
a Realized Loss resulting from an interest rate reduction in connection with a Servicing Modification shall be made by operation of the priority of payment provisions of Section 4.02(c). Allocations of the principal portion of Debt Service
Reductions shall be made by operation of the priority of payment provisions of Section 4.02(c). All Realized Losses and all other losses allocated to a Class of Certificates hereunder will be allocated among the Certificates of such
Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby. 
 (d) All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall
be allocated on each Distribution Date to the REMIC I Regular Interests as provided in the definition of REMIC I Realized Losses. 
 (e) Realized Losses allocated to the Excess Cash Flow or the Overcollateralization Amount pursuant to paragraphs (a), (b) or (c) of this Section, the definition of Accrued Certificate Interest
and the operation of Section 4.02(c) shall be deemed allocated to the Class SB Certificates. Realized Losses allocated to the Class SB Certificates shall, to the extent such Realized Losses represent Realized Losses on an
interest portion, be allocated to the REMIC II Regular Interest SB-IO. Realized Losses allocated to the Excess Cash Flow pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall be deemed to reduce Accrued Certificate Interest on the REMIC II
Regular Interest SB-IO. Realized Losses allocated to the Overcollateralization Amount pursuant to paragraph (b) of this Section shall be deemed first to reduce the principal 

  
 105









 
balance of the REMIC II Regular Interest SB-PO until such principal balance shall have been reduced to zero and thereafter to reduce accrued and unpaid interest on the REMIC II Regular
Interest SB-IO. 
 Section 4.06. Reports of Foreclosures and Abandonment of Mortgaged Property 

The Master Servicer or the Subservicers shall file information returns with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a
trade or business, the reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property and the informational returns relating to cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and
6050P of the Code, respectively, and deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate on or before March 31 of each year, beginning with the first March 31 that occurs at least six months after the Cut off Date, stating that such
reports have been filed. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code. 
 Section 4.07. Optional Purchase of Defaulted Mortgage Loans 
 (a) As
to any Mortgage Loan which is delinquent in payment by 90 days or more, the Master Servicer may, at its option, purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee at the Purchase Price therefor; provided, that any such Mortgage Loan that becomes 90 days
or more delinquent during any given Calendar Quarter shall only be eligible for purchase pursuant to this Section 4.07 during the period beginning on the first Business Day of the following Calendar Quarter, and ending at the close of business
on the second-to-last Business Day of such following Calendar Quarter; and provided further, that such Mortgage Loan is 90 days or more delinquent at the time of repurchase. Such option if not exercised shall not thereafter be reinstated as to any
Mortgage Loan, unless the delinquency is cured and the Mortgage Loan thereafter again becomes delinquent in payment by 90 days or more in a subsequent Calendar Quarter. 
 (b) If at any time the Master Servicer makes a payment to the Certificate Account covering the amount of the Purchase Price for such a Mortgage Loan, and the Master Servicer provides to the Trustee a
certification signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the amount of such payment has been deposited in the Certificate Account, then the Trustee shall execute the assignment of such Mortgage Loan at the request of the Master Servicer without
recourse to the Master Servicer which shall succeed to all the Trustee’s right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage Loan, and all security and documents relative thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment outright and not for
security. The Master Servicer will thereupon own such Mortgage, and all such security and documents, free of any further obligation to the Trustee or the Certificateholders with respect thereto. 

Section 4.08. [Reserved]. 
 Section 4.09. [Yield Maintenance Agreement]. 
 (a) [In the event
that the Trustee does not receive by the Business Day preceding a Distribution Date the amount as specified by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.04(a)(iv) hereof as the amount to be paid with respect to such Distribution Date by the


  
 106









 
Yield Maintenance Agreement Provider under the Yield Maintenance Agreement, the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the Yield Maintenance Agreement Provider thereunder. The parties hereto
acknowledge that the Yield Maintenance Agreement Provider shall be making all calculations, and determine the amounts to be paid, under the Yield Maintenance Agreement. Absent manifest error, the Trustee may conclusively rely on such calculations
and determination and any notice received by it from the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.04(a)(iv) hereof.] 
 (b)
[The Trustee shall deposit or cause to be deposited any amount received under the Yield Maintenance Agreement into the Certificate Account on the date such amount is received from the Yield Maintenance Agreement Provider under the Yield Maintenance
Agreement (including termination payments, if any). All payments received under the Yield Maintenance Agreement shall be distributed in accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 4.02(c) hereof.] 

(c) [In the event that the Yield Maintenance Agreement, or any replacement thereof, terminates prior to the Distribution Date in
[            ], the Master Servicer, but at no expense to the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, to the extent that the termination value under the Yield Maintenance Agreement is
sufficient therefor and only to the extent of the termination payment received from the Yield Maintenance Agreement Provider, shall (i) cause a new yield maintenance agreement provider to assume the obligations of such terminated yield
maintenance agreement provider or (ii) cause a new yield maintenance agreement provider to enter into a new yield maintenance agreement with the Trust Fund having substantially similar terms as those set forth in the Yield Maintenance
Agreement.] 
 Section 4.10. [Supplemental Interest Trust; Swap Agreement]. 

(a) [On the Closing Date, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall (i) establish and maintain in its name, in trust for the
benefit of the Certificateholders, the Supplemental Interest Trust Account and (ii) for the benefit of the Certificateholders, cause the Supplemental Interest Trust to enter into the Swap Agreement. It is intended that the Supplemental Interest
Trust be classified for federal income tax purposes as a grantor trust under Subpart E, part I of subchapter J of chapter 1 of the Code, of which the Class SB Certificateholders are owners, rather than a partnership, an association taxable as a
corporation or a taxable mortgage pool; and the powers granted and obligations undertaken in this Agreement shall be construed so as to further such intent.] 
 (b) [The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall deposit in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account all payments that are payable to the Supplemental Interest Trust under the Swap Agreement. Net Swap
Payments and Swap Termination Payments (other than Swap Termination Payments resulting from a Swap Counterparty Trigger Event) payable by the Supplemental Interest Trust to the Swap Counterparty pursuant to the Swap Agreement shall be excluded from
the Available Distribution Amount and paid to the Swap Counterparty prior to any distributions to the Certificateholders. On each Distribution Date, such amounts will be remitted by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee to the Supplemental
Interest Trust Account for payment to the Swap Counterparty, and such amounts (plus any amounts deposited into the Supplemental Interest Trust Account pursuant to Section 4.02(c)(xi)) shall be paid to the Swap Counterparty in the following
order of priority: first to make any Net Swap Payment owed to the 

  
 107









 
Swap Counterparty pursuant to the Swap Agreement for such Distribution Date; and second to make any Swap Termination Payment (not due to a Swap Counterparty Trigger Event) owed to the Swap
Counterparty pursuant to the Swap Agreement for such Distribution Date. Any Swap Termination Payment triggered by a Swap Counterparty Trigger Event owed to the Swap Counterparty pursuant to the Swap Agreement will be subordinated to distributions to
the Holders of the Class A Certificates a and shall be paid as set forth under Section 4.02.] 
 (c) [Net Swap
Payments payable by the Swap Counterparty to the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust pursuant to the Swap Agreement shall be deposited by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee into the Supplemental
Interest Trust Account and shall be applied in accordance with Section 4.02. Neither the Swap Agreement nor any Net Swap Payments (including Swap Termination Payments) constitute a part of any REMIC created hereunder and to the extent any Net
Swap Payments are included as a part of Excess Cash Flow they are so for definition purposes only.] 
 (d) [Subject to Sections
8.01 and 8.02 hereof, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of the Swap Agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Swap Counterparty at the written direction of the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, or if the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee does not receive such direction from such Certificateholders, then at the written direction of
[            ].] 
 (e) [The Supplemental Interest Trust Account
shall be an Eligible Account. Amounts held in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account from time to time shall continue to constitute assets of the Supplemental Interest Trust, but not of the REMICs, until released from the Supplemental Interest
Trust Account pursuant to this Section 4.10. The Supplemental Interest Trust Account constitutes an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h) and is not an asset of the REMICs. The Class
SB Certificateholders shall be the owners of the Supplemental Interest Trust Account. The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account. The
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall, at the written direction of the Master Servicer, invest amounts on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account in Permitted Investments. In the absence of written direction to the Supplemental
Interest Trust Trustee from the Master Servicer, all funds in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account shall remain uninvested. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Supplemental Interest Trust Account shall be terminated at such time when there are no
payments due or payable pursuant to the Swap Agreement.] 
 (f) [Reserved] 

(g) [Upon the occurrence of an Early Termination Date, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall use reasonable efforts to appoint a
successor swap counterparty. To the extent that the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee receives a Swap Termination Payment from the Swap Counterparty, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall apply such Swap Termination Payment to appoint a
successor swap counterparty. In the event that the Supplemental Interest Trust receives a Swap Termination Payment from the Swap Counterparty and a replacement swap agreement or similar agreement cannot be obtained within 30 days after


  
 108









 
receipt by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee of such Swap Termination Payment, then the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall deposit such Swap Termination Payment into a separate, non
interest bearing account and will, on each subsequent Distribution Date, withdraw from the amount then remaining on deposit in such reserve account an amount equal to the Net Swap Payment, if any, that would have been paid to the Supplemental
Interest Trust by the original Swap Counterparty calculated in accordance with the terms of the original Swap Agreement, and deposit such amount into the Supplemental Interest Trust Account for distribution on such Distribution Date pursuant to
Section 4.02(c). To the extent that the Supplemental Interest Trust is required to pay a Swap Termination Payment to the Swap Counterparty, any upfront payment received from the counterparty to a replacement swap agreement will be used to pay
such Swap Termination Payment prior to using any portion of the Available Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date.] 

(h) [The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee is hereby directed by the Depositor, on or before the Closing Date, to sign the Swap
Agreement on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, in the form presented to it by the Depositor. The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall have no responsibility for the contents, adequacy or
sufficiency of the Swap Agreement, including, without limitation, any representations and warranties contained herein.] 
 (i)
[The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee is hereby directed, on the Closing Date, to remit the lesser of: (i) $[            ] and (ii) the amounts on deposit in the Supplemental
Interest Trust received from the Swap Counterparty pursuant to the Swap Agreement on the Closing Date to the Master Servicer.] 

(j) [The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall provide the Certificate Insurer written notice promptly upon determining that there
are insufficient funds to make any Net Swap Payments owed by the Supplemental Interest Trust to the Swap Counterparty. The Certificate Insurer may, at its sole discretion, advance any such required payments, and the Supplemental Interest Trust
Trustee is hereby authorized to make such payments on behalf of the Certificate Insurer.] 
 Section 4.11. [The
Certificate Guaranty Insurance Policy]. 
 (a) [If pursuant to Section 4.04(a)(v), the Master Servicer determines and
notifies a Responsible Officer of the Trustee in writing that an Insured Payment is required and the amount of such Insured Payment for any Distribution Date, the Trustee shall complete the Notice and submit such Notice in accordance with the
Certificate Guaranty Insurance Policy to the Certificate Insurer no later than 12:00 P.M., New York City time, on the second Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution Date, as a claim for an Insured Payment in an amount equal to such
Insured Payment.] 
 (b) [The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Insurance Account on behalf of the Holders of the
Class A Certificates. Upon receipt of an Insured Payment from the Certificate Insurer on behalf of the Class A Certificates, the Trustee shall deposit such Insured Payment in the Insurance Account. All amounts on deposit in the Insurance
Account shall remain uninvested with no liability for interest or other compensation thereon. On each 

  
 109









 
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall transfer any Insured Payment then on deposit in the Insurance Account to the Certificate Account and distribute such Insured Payment pursuant to
Section 4.02.] 
 (c) [The Trustee shall (i) receive as attorney-in-fact of each Class A Certificateholder any
Insured Payment from the Certificate Insurer and (ii) distribute such Insured Payment to the Class A Certificates as set forth in subsection (b) above. Insured Payments disbursed by the Trustee from proceeds of the Certificate
Guaranty Insurance Policy shall not be considered payment by the Trust Fund with respect to the Class A Certificates, nor shall such disbursement of such Insured Payments discharge the obligations of the Trust Fund with respect to the amounts
thereof, and the Certificate Insurer shall become owner of such amounts to the extent covered by such Insured Payments as the deemed assignee of such Class A Certificateholders. The Trustee hereby agrees on behalf of each Class A
Certificateholder (and each Class A Certificateholder, by its acceptance of its Class A Certificates, as applicable, hereby agrees) for the benefit of the Certificate Insurer that the Trustee shall recognize that to the extent the
Certificate Insurer pays Insured Payments, either directly or indirectly (as by paying through the Trustee), to the Class A Certificates, the Certificate Insurer will be entitled to be subrogated to the rights of the Class A
Certificateholders to the extent of such payments.] 
 Section 4.12. [Posted Collateral Account]. 

(a) [On the Closing Date, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust, shall establish and
maintain a Posted Collateral Account pursuant to the terms of the Swap Agreement.] 
 (b) [The Supplemental Interest Trust
Trustee, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust, shall deposit in the Posted Collateral Account all collateral posted by the Swap Counterparty pursuant to Paragraph 13(g)(i) of the credit support annex to the Swap Agreement and held by the
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust, pursuant to the credit support annex to the Swap Agreement. Assets deposited into the Posted Collateral Account (i) shall not be commingled or used with any
other asset held by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee and (ii) shall not be transferred to any other person or entity except as may be provided in the Swap Agreement.] 

(c) [The Posted Collateral Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall, at the written direction
of the Master Servicer, invest amounts on deposit in the Posted Collateral Account in Permitted Investments. In the absence of written direction to the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee from the Master Servicer, all funds in the Posted Collateral
Account shall remain uninvested.]

 ARTICLE V 
 THE CERTIFICATES 
 Section 5.01. The Certificates 

(a) [The Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates, Class B Certificates, Class SB Certificates and Class R
Certificates shall be substantially in the forms set forth in Exhibits A, B-1, B-2, C and D, respectively, and shall, on original issue, be executed and delivered by the Trustee to the Certificate Registrar for authentication and delivery to or upon
the order of the Depositor upon receipt by the Trustee or one or more Custodians of the documents specified in Section 2.01. The Class A and Class M-1 Certificates shall be issuable in minimum dollar denominations of $[100,000] and
integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class M-2 Certificates, Class M-3 Certificates, Class M-4 Certificates, Class M-5 Certificates, Class M-6 Certificates, Class M-7 Certificates, Class M-8
Certificates, Class M-9 Certificates and Class B Certificates shall be issuable in minimum dollar denominations of $[250,000] and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof. The Class SB Certificates shall be issuable in registered,
certificated form in minimum percentage interests of [5.00]% and integral multiples of [0.01]% in excess thereof. Each Class of Class R Certificates shall be issued minimum percentage interests of [20.00]% and integral multiples of [0.01]%
in excess thereof; provided, however, that one Class R Certificate of each Class will be issuable to the REMIC Administrator as “tax matters person” pursuant to Section 10.01(c) in a minimum denomination
representing a Percentage Interest of not less than 0.01%. 
 The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile
signature on behalf of an authorized officer of the Trustee. Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Trustee shall bind the Trustee, notwithstanding that such individuals
or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificate or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificates. 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 the Certificate Registrar by manual signature, and such certificate 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.] 

(b) The [Class A Certificates, Class R Certificates, Class M Certificates and Class B Certificates] shall initially be
issued as one or more Certificates registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and, except as provided below, registration of such Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository that agrees to hold such
Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership Interests therein. The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests in and to each [Class A Certificate, Class R Certificate, Class M Certificate and
Class B Certificate], through the book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as provided below, shall not be entitled to Definitive Certificates in respect of such Ownership Interests. All transfers by Certificate Owners of their
respective Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm 

  
 111









 
representing such Certificate Owner. Each Depository Participant shall transfer the Ownership Interests only in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage
firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository’s normal procedures. 
 The Trustee, the Master Servicer
and the Depositor may for all purposes (including the making of payments due on the respective Classes of Book-Entry Certificates) deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to the respective
Classes of Book-Entry Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder. The rights of Certificate Owners with respect to the respective Classes of Book-Entry Certificates shall be limited to those established by law
and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms representing such Certificate Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depository as Holder of any Class of Book-Entry
Certificates with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners. The Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in connection with solicitations of consents from
or voting by Certificateholders and shall give notice to the Depository of such record date. 
 If with respect to any
Book-Entry Certificate (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depository with respect to such Book-Entry Certificate and (B) the
Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, or (ii)(A) the Depositor at its option advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the book-entry system for such Book-Entry Certificate through the Depository and
(B) upon receipt of notice from the Depository of the Depositor’s election to terminate the book-entry system for such Book-Entry Certificate, the Depository Participants holding beneficial interests in such Book-Entry Certificates agree
to initiate such termination, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners of such Book-Entry Certificate, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners
requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates.

 In addition, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Certificate Owner materially adversely affected
thereby may at its option request a Definitive Certificate evidencing such Certificate Owner’s Percentage Interest in the related Class of Certificates. In order to make such request, such Certificate Owner shall, subject to the rules and
procedures of the Depository, provide the Depository or the related Depository Participant with directions for the Certificate Registrar to exchange or cause the exchange of the Certificate Owner’s interest in such Class of Certificates
for an equivalent Percentage Interest in fully registered definitive form. Upon receipt by the Certificate Registrar of instructions from the Depository directing the Certificate Registrar to effect such exchange (such instructions to contain
information regarding the Class of Certificates and the Certificate Principal Balance being exchanged, the Depository Participant account to be debited with the decrease, the registered holder of and delivery instructions for the Definitive
Certificate, and any other information reasonably required by the Certificate Registrar), (i) the Certificate Registrar shall instruct the Depository to reduce the related Depository Participant’s account by the aggregate Certificate
Principal Balance of the Definitive Certificate, (ii) the Trustee shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall 

  
 112









 
authenticate and deliver, in accordance with the registration and delivery instructions provided by the Depository, a Definitive Certificate evidencing such Certificate Owner’s Percentage
Interest in such Class of Certificates and (iii) the Trustee shall execute and 
 the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate a new
Book-Entry Certificate reflecting the reduction in the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of such Class of Certificates by the amount of the Definitive Certificates. 
 None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall be liable for any actions taken by the Depository or its nominee, including, without limitation, any delay in delivery of any instructions
required under this Section 5.01 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
Depositor in connection with the issuance of the Definitive Certificates pursuant to this Section 5.01 shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, and the Trustee and the Master Servicer shall recognize the Holders of the
Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder. 
 (c) Each of the Certificates is intended to be a
“security” governed by Article 8 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect in the State of New York and any other applicable jurisdiction, to the extent that any of such laws may be applicable. 

Section 5.02. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates 

(a) The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be appointed by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions
of Section 8.12 a Certificate Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The
Trustee is initially appointed Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Certificate Registrar, or the Trustee, shall provide the Master Servicer with a
certified list of Certificateholders as of each Record Date prior to the related Determination Date. 
 (b) Upon surrender for
registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12 and, in the case of any Class SB Certificate, upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth below, the
Trustee shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of a like Class and aggregate Percentage Interest. 

(c) At the option of the Certificateholders, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of authorized denominations of a like
Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange the Trustee shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall
authenticate and deliver the Certificates of such Class which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Trustee or the
Certificate Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.


  
 113









 (d) No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a [Class B Certificate or
Class SB Certificate] shall be made unless such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and any applicable state securities
laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 5.02(d), in the event that a transfer of a Class B Certificate or Class SB Certificate is to be made, (i) unless the Depositor
directs the Trustee otherwise, the Trustee shall require a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the
applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws or is being made pursuant to said Act and laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Trust, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, and (ii) the
Trustee shall require the transferee to execute a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit I hereto, and the Trustee shall require the transferor to execute a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit J
hereto, each acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee certifying to the Depositor and the Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which representation letters shall not be an expense of the Trustee,
the Trust, the Depositor or the Master Servicer. In lieu of the requirements set forth in the preceding sentence, transfers of Class B Certificates or Class SB Certificates may be made in accordance with this Section 5.02(d) if
the prospective transferee of such a Certificate provides the Trustee and the Master Servicer with an investment letter substantially in the form of Exhibit N attached hereto, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the
Depositor, or the Master Servicer, and which investment letter states that, among other things, such transferee (i) is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined under Rule 144A, acting for its own account or the accounts of other
“qualified institutional buyers” as defined under Rule 144A, and (ii) is aware that the proposed transferor intends to rely on the exemption from registration requirements under the 1933 Act provided by Rule 144A. The Holder of a
Class B Certificate or Class SB Certificate desiring to effect any transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar against
any liability that may result if the transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws and this Agreement. If any transfer of a Class B Certificate held by a transferor
and to be held by a transferee in book-entry form is to made without registration under the 1933 Act, the transferor shall be deemed to have made each of the certifications set forth in Exhibit J hereto as of the transfer date and the
transferee shall be deemed to have made each of the certifications set forth in Exhibit N hereto as of the transfer date, in each case as if such Class B Certificate were in physical form. 

(e) (i) In the case of any Class SB Certificate presented for registration in the name of any Person, either (A) the
Trustee shall require an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer to the effect that the purchase or holding of such Class SB Certificate is permissible under
applicable law, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), and will not subject the Trustee, the
Depositor or the Master Servicer to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in 

  
 114









 
addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, or (B) the prospective transferee shall
be required to provide the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer with a certification to the effect set forth in Exhibit P (with respect to a Class SB Certificate), which the Trustee may rely upon without further inquiry or
investigation, or such other certifications as the Trustee may deem desirable or necessary in order to establish that such transferee or the Person in whose name such registration is requested is not an employee benefit plan or other plan or
arrangement subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or any Person (including an insurance company investing its general accounts, an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any such
plan) who is using “plan assets” of any such plan to effect such acquisition (each of the foregoing, a “Plan Investor”). 
 (ii) [any transferee of a Class M Certificate or Class R Certificate shall be deemed to have represented by virtue of its purchase or holding of such Class M Certificate or Class R Certificate (or
interest therein) that either (a) such transferee is not a Plan Investor, (b) it has acquired and is holding such Certificate in reliance on U.S. Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Exemption (“PTE”) 94-29, as most
recently amended by PTE 2002-41, 67 Fed. Reg. 54487 (Aug. 22, 2002) (the “Issuer Exemption”), and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Issuer Exemption, including that such Certificate must be
rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than “BBB-” (or its equivalent) by Fitch, Standard & Poor’s, Moody’s or DBRS or (c) (x) such Transferee is an insurance company, (y) the source of funds used to
purchase or hold such Certificate (or interest therein) is an “insurance company general account” (as defined in Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 95-60), and (z) the conditions set forth in Sections I and III
of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied (each entity that satisfies this clause (c), a “Complying Insurance Company”).] [Each Holder of a Class A Certificate or any interest therein acquired by a Plan Investor as of any date prior to the
termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust shall be deemed to have represented, by its acquisition or holding of such Certificate or any interest therein, that at least one of PTCE 84-14, 90-1, 91-38, 95-60 or 96-23 or other applicable exemption
applies to such Holder’s right to receive payments from the Supplemental Interest Trust.] 
 (iii) If any Class M
Certificate or Class R Certificate (or any interest therein) is acquired or held by any Person that does not satisfy the conditions described in paragraph (ii) above, then the last preceding Transferee that either (x) is not a Plan
Investor, (y) acquired such Certificate in compliance with the Issuer Exemption or (z) is a Complying Insurance Company shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Certificate Owner thereof
retroactive to the date of such Transfer of such Class M Certificate or such Class R Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for making any payments due on such Certificate to such preceding Transferee. 

(iv) Any purported Certificate Owner whose acquisition or holding of any Class SB Certificate, Class R Certificate or Class M
Certificate (or interest therein) was effected in violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02(e) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Subservicer, any underwriter and the Trust from and
against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by such parties as a result of such acquisition or holding. 

  
 115









 (f) (i) Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class R
Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably authorized the Trustee or its designee under clause (iii)(A) below to deliver
payments to a Person other than such Person and to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (iii)(B) below and to execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale. The
rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions: 
 (A) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its
status as a Permitted Transferee. 
 (B) In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a
Class R Certificate, the Trustee shall require delivery to it, and shall not register the Transfer of any Class R Certificate until its receipt of, (I) an affidavit and agreement (a “Transfer Affidavit and Agreement,” in the
form attached hereto as Exhibit H-1) from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer, representing and warranting, among other things, that it is a Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring its
Ownership Interest in the Class R Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, that for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a Class R
Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee, and that it has reviewed the provisions of this Section 5.02(f) and agrees to be bound by them, and (II) a certificate, in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H-2, from
the Holder wishing to transfer the Class R Certificate, in form and substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer, representing and warranting, among other things, that no purpose of the proposed Transfer is to impede the assessment or
collection of tax. 
 (C) Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed
Transferee under clause (B) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Trustee who is assigned to this Agreement has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R
Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected. 
 (D) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership
Interest in a Class R Certificate shall agree (x) to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate and (y) not to
transfer its Ownership Interest unless it provides a certificate to the Trustee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H-2. 
 (E) Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the Trustee written notice that it is a
“pass-through interest holder” 

  
 116









 
within the meaning of Temporary Treasury Regulations Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, if it is, or is holding
an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate on behalf of, a “pass-through interest holder.” 
 (ii) The
Trustee shall register the Transfer of any Class R Certificate only if it shall have received the Transfer Affidavit and Agreement, a certificate of the Holder requesting such transfer in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H-2 and all of
such other documents as shall have been reasonably required by the Trustee as a condition to such registration. Transfers of the Class R Certificates to Non-United States Persons and Disqualified Organizations (as defined in
Section 860E(e)(5) of the Code) are prohibited. 
 (A) If any Disqualified Organization shall become a
holder of a Class R Certificate, then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such
Class R Certificate. If a Non-United States Person shall become a holder of a Class R Certificate, then the last preceding United States Person shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder
thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Class R Certificate. If a transfer of a Class R Certificate is disregarded pursuant to the provisions of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1 or
Section 1.860G-3, then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights and obligations as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Class R
Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Class R Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(f) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to
the holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such holder under the provisions of this Agreement. 
 (B) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Class R Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02(f) and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of
the rights of the Holder of such Class R Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the Master Servicer shall have the right, without notice to the holder or any prior holder of such
Class R Certificate, to sell such Class R Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Master Servicer on such terms as the Master Servicer may choose. Such purported Transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver each Class R
Certificate in accordance with the instructions of the Master Servicer. Such purchaser may be the Master Servicer itself or any Affiliate of the Master Servicer. The proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which may include commissions
payable to the Master Servicer or its Affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Master Servicer to such purported Transferee. The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be determined in the
sole discretion of the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion. 

  
 117









 (iii) The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, shall make available, upon written
request from the Trustee, all information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, including the information
regarding “excess inclusions” of such Class R Certificates required to be provided to the Internal Revenue Service and certain Persons as described in Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860D-1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5), and
(B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Class R
Certificate having as among its record holders at any time any Person who is a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be required by the Master Servicer from such Person. 

(iv) The provisions of this Section 5.02(f) set forth prior to this clause (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated,
provided that there shall have been delivered to the Trustee the following: 
 (A) Written notification from each
Rating Agency to the effect that the modification, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade its then-current ratings, if any, of any Class of [Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates
or Class B Certificates] below the lower of the then-current rating or the rating assigned to such Certificates as of the Closing Date by such Rating Agency; and 

(B) A certificate of the Master Servicer stating that the Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel, in form and
substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer, to the effect that such modification, addition to or absence of such provisions will not cause any REMIC created hereunder to cease to qualify as a REMIC and will not cause (x) any REMIC created
hereunder to be subject to an entity-level tax caused by the Transfer of any Class R Certificate to a Person that is a Disqualified Organization or (y) a Certificateholder or another Person to be subject to a REMIC-related tax caused by
the Transfer of a Class R Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee. 
 (g) No service charge shall be
made for any transfer or exchange of Certificates of any Class, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

 (h) All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be destroyed by the Certificate Registrar. 

Section 5.03. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates 

If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar, or the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar receive
evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless,
then, in the 

  
 118









 
absence of notice to the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall execute and the Certificate Registrar 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, Class and Percentage Interest but bearing a number not contemporaneously outstanding. Upon the
issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses
of the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not
the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time. 
 Section 5.04. Persons Deemed Owners

 Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving
distributions pursuant to Section 4.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, except as and to the extent provided in the definition of “Certificateholder” and in Section 4.09, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Certificate Registrar nor any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar shall be affected by notice to the contrary except as provided in Section 5.02(f). 

Section 5.05. Appointment of Paying Agent 
 The Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent for the purpose of making distributions to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.02. In the event of any such appointment, on or prior to each Distribution
Date the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee shall deposit or cause to be deposited with the Paying Agent a sum sufficient to make the payments to Certificateholders in the amounts and in the manner provided for in Section 4.02, such sum
to be held in trust for the benefit of Certificateholders. 
 The Trustee shall cause each Paying Agent to execute and deliver
to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee that such Paying Agent will hold all sums held by it for the payment to Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until
such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders. Any sums so held by such Paying Agent shall be held only in Eligible Accounts to the extent such sums are not distributed to the Certificateholders on the date of receipt by such Paying Agent.

 Section 5.06. U.S.A. Patriot Act Compliance 

In order for it to comply with its duties under the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee may obtain and verify certain information from the
other parties hereto, including but not limited to such parties’ name, address and other identifying information.

 ARTICLE VI 
 THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER 
 Section 6.01. Respective
Liabilities of the Depositor and the Master Servicer 
 The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically and respectively imposed upon and undertaken by the Depositor and the Master Servicer herein. By way of illustration and not limitation, the Depositor is not liable for the
servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, nor is it obligated by Section 7.01 or Section 10.01 to assume any obligations of the Master Servicer or to appoint a designee to assume such obligations, nor is it liable for any other
obligation hereunder that it may, but is not obligated to, assume unless it elects to assume such obligation in accordance herewith. 
 Section 6.02. Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Master Servicer; Assignment of Rights and Delegation of Duties by Master Servicer 

(a) The Depositor and the Master Servicer shall each keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a limited liability
company under the laws of the state of its formation, and will each obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign limited liability company in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the
validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement. 
 (b) Any Person into which the Depositor or the Master Servicer may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to
which the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything in this Section 6.02(b) to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Master
Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac; and provided further that the Master Servicer (or the Depositor, as applicable) shall notify each Rating Agency (in accordance with Section 11.10) of
any such merger, conversion or consolidation at least 30 days prior to the effective date of such event. 
 (c) Notwithstanding
anything else in this Section 6.02 and Section 6.04 to the contrary, the Master Servicer may assign its rights and delegate its duties and obligations under this Agreement; provided that the Person accepting such assignment or delegation
shall be a Person which is qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, is reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor, is willing to service the Mortgage Loans and executes and delivers to the Depositor
and the Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be
performed or observed by the Master Servicer under this Agreement; provided, further, that 

  
 120









 
each Rating Agency’s rating of the Classes of Certificates that have been rated in effect immediately prior to such assignment and delegation will not be qualified, reduced or withdrawn as a
result of such assignment and delegation (as evidenced by a letter to such effect from each Rating Agency). In the case of any such assignment and delegation, the Master Servicer shall be released from its obligations under this Agreement, except
that the Master Servicer shall remain liable for all liabilities and obligations incurred by it as Master Servicer hereunder prior to the satisfaction of the conditions to such assignment and delegation set forth in the next preceding sentence.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a pledge or assignment by the Master Servicer solely of its rights to purchase all assets of the Trust under Section 9.01(a) (or, if so specified in Section 9.01(a), its rights to purchase the
Mortgage Loans and property acquired related to such Mortgage Loans or its rights to purchase the Certificates related thereto), the provisos of the first sentence of this paragraph will not apply. 

Section 6.03. Limitation on Liability of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Others 

None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Master Servicer
shall be under any liability to the Trust or the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this
provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any such Person against any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master Servicer
may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor
or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense
related to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) and any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad
faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. 
 Neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal or administrative action, proceeding, hearing or examination that is not incidental
to its respective duties under this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Depositor or the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action, proceeding,
hearing or examination that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such
action, proceeding, hearing or examination and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Depositor and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of amounts attributable
to the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Custodial Account as provided by Section 3.10 and, on the Distribution Date(s) following such reimbursement, the aggregate of such expenses and costs shall be allocated in reduction of the Accrued
Certificate Interest on each Class entitled thereto in the same manner as if such expenses and costs constituted a Prepayment Interest Shortfall. 

  
 121









 Section 6.04. Depositor and Master Servicer Not to Resign 

Subject to the provisions of Section 6.02, neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer shall resign from its respective
obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the resigning party) to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No such resignation by the Master Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer shall have assumed the
Master Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations in accordance with Section 7.02. 

  
 122









 ARTICLE VII 
 DEFAULT 
 Section 7.01. Events of Default 

Event of Default, wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever reason for such Event of Default and whether it
shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body): 

 

	 	(i)	the Master Servicer shall fail to distribute or cause to be distributed to Holders of Certificates of any Class any distribution required to be made under the
terms of the Certificates of such Class and this Agreement and, in either case, such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 5 days after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring such failure to be remedied, shall

not less than 25%; or 

  

	 	(ii)	the Master Servicer shall fail to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Master Servicer contained in
the Certificates of any Class or in this Agreement and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 30 days (except that such number of days shall be 15 in the case of a failure to pay the premium for any Required Insurance Policy)
after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee[, the Certificate Insurer] or the Depositor, or to the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the
Trustee by the Holders of Certificates of any Class evidencing, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 25%; or 

  

	 	(iii)	a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state

shall have been entered against the Master Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or 


 

	 	(iv)	the Master Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and
liabilities, or similar proceedings of, or relating to, the Master Servicer or of, or relating to, all or substantially all of the property of the Master Servicer; or 


  
 123










	 	(v)	the Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of, or commence a voluntary
case under, any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or 


 

	 	(vi)	the Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.04(b) that it is unable to deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal to the
required P&I Advance for the applicable Distribution Date. 

 If an Event of Default described in clauses
(i)-(v) of this Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied, either the Depositor or the Trustee shall at the direction of [the Certificate Insurer (unless a
Certificate Insurer Default is continuing, in which case at the direction of the] Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (and to the Depositor [and the Certificate Insurer]
if given by the Trustee or to the Trustee [and the Certificate Insurer] if given by the Depositor), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof,
other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder; provided, however, that a successor to the Master Servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 and such successor Master Servicer shall have accepted the duties of Master Servicer
effective upon the resignation of the Master Servicer. If an Event of Default described in clause (vi) hereof shall occur, the Trustee [with the written consent of the Certificate Insurer] shall, by notice to the Master Servicer[, the
Certificate Insurer] and the Depositor, immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a Certificateholder
hereunder as provided in Section 4.04(b). On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a
Holder thereof) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall subject to Section 7.02 pass to and be vested in the Trustee or the Trustee’s designee appointed pursuant to Section 7.02; and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby
authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the
purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee as successor Master Servicer
in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee or its designee for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be
credited to the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. No such termination shall release the Master Servicer for any liability that it would otherwise have hereunder for any act or
omission prior to the effective time of such termination. 
 Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of
[            ] in its capacity as Master Servicer hereunder, [            ] shall be entitled to receive, out of any late
collection of a Monthly Payment on a Mortgage Loan which was due prior to the notice terminating [            ]’s rights and obligations as Master Servicer hereunder and received after
such notice, that portion to which [            ] would have been entitled pursuant to Sections 3.10(a)(ii), (vi) and (vii) as well as its Servicing Fee in respect thereof, and


  
 124









 
any other amounts payable to [            ] hereunder the entitlement to which arose prior to the termination of its activities
hereunder. Upon the termination of [            ] as Master Servicer hereunder the Depositor shall deliver to the Trustee, as successor Master Servicer, a copy of the Program Guide [and
upon request of the Certificate Insurer, a copy of the Program Guide to the Certificate Insurer]. 
 Section 7.02.
Trustee or Depositor to Act; Appointment of Successor 
 (a) On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice
of termination pursuant to Section 7.01 or resigns in accordance with Section 6.04, [so long as no Certificate Insurer Default exists, the Certificate Insurer may appoint a successor Master Servicer, and if the Certificate Insurer fails to
do so within 30 days or a Certificate Insurer Default exists,] the Trustee or, upon notice to [the Certificate Insurer and] the Depositor and with the Depositor’s consent [and, so long as no Certificate Insurer Default exists, the Certificate
Insurer’s consent] a designee (which meets the standards set forth below) of the Trustee, shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided
for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer (except for the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Sections 2.02 and 2.03(a), excluding the duty to
notify related Subservicers as set forth in such Sections, and its obligations to deposit amounts in respect of losses incurred prior to such notice or termination on the investment of funds in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account
pursuant to Sections 3.07(c) and 4.01(b) by the terms and provisions hereof); provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the preceding Master Servicer’s failure to provide
information required by Section 4.04 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder, as successor Master Servicer. If the Trustee has become the successor to the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 6.04 or
Section 7.01, then notwithstanding the above, [so long as no Certificate Insurer Default exists, the Certificate Insurer may appoint a successor Master Servicer, and if the Certificate Insurer fails to do so within 30 days or a Certificate
Insurer Default exists,] the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home finance institution, which is also
a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac-approved mortgage servicing institution, having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 as the successor to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or
liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee shall become successor to the Master Servicer and shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. As compensation
therefor, the Trustee, as successor Master Servicer, shall be entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to charge to the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account if the Master
Servicer had continued to act hereunder and, in addition, shall be entitled to the income from any Permitted Investments made with amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans held in the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account. 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 the initial Master Servicer hereunder. The Depositor, the Trustee, the Custodian and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. The
Servicing Fee 

  
 125









 
for any successor Master Servicer appointed pursuant to this Section 7.02 will be lowered with respect to those Mortgage Loans, if any, where the Subservicing Fee accrues at a rate of less
than 0.200% per annum in the event that the successor Master Servicer is not servicing such Mortgage Loans directly and it is necessary to raise the related Subservicing Fee to a rate of 0.200% per annum in order to hire a Subservicer with
respect to such Mortgage Loans. 
 (b) In connection with the termination or resignation of the Master
Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor Master Servicer, including the Trustee if the Trustee is acting as successor Master Servicer, shall represent and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all
material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, in which case the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer in causing
MERS to revise its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to the successor Master Servicer as necessary under MERS’ rules and regulations, or (ii) the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer in
causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to
effect a transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System to the successor
Master Servicer. The predecessor Master Servicer shall file or cause to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office. The predecessor Master Servicer shall bear any and all fees of MERS, costs of preparing any assignments of
Mortgage, and fees and costs of filing any assignments of Mortgage that may be required under this subsection (b). The successor Master Servicer shall cause such assignment to be delivered to the Trustee or the Custodian promptly upon receipt of the
original with evidence of recording thereon or a copy certified by the public recording office in which such assignment was recorded. 
 Section 7.03. Notification to Certificateholders 
 (a) Upon any such
termination or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to [the Certificate Insurer and to] the Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

 (b) Within 60 days after the occurrence of any Event of Default, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Holders of
Certificates [and the Certificate Insurer] notice of each such Event of Default hereunder known to the Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been cured or waived as provided in Section 7.04 hereof. 

Section 7.04. Waiver of Events of Default 
 The [Certificate Insurer or the] Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights of Certificates affected by a default or Event of Default hereunder[, with the written consent of the Certificate
Insurer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld,] may waive any default or Event of Default; provided, however, that (a) a default or Event of Default under clause (i) of Section 7.01 may be waived [with the written
consent of the Certificate Insurer,] only by all of the Holders of Certificates affected by such default or Event of Default [(which Voting Rights of the Class A Certificateholders may be exercised by the Certificate Insurer without the consent
of 

  
 126









 
such Holders and may only be exercised by Holders with the prior written consent of the Certificate Insurer so long as there is no Certificate Insurer Default)] and (b) no waiver pursuant to
this Section 7.04 shall affect the Holders of Certificates in the manner set forth in Section 11.01(b)(i), (ii) or (iii). Upon any such waiver of a default or Event of Default [with the consent of the Certificate Insuer or] by the
Holders representing the requisite percentage of Voting Rights of Certificates affected by such default or Event of Default [with the consent of the Certificate Insurer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld], such default or Event of
Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent
expressly so waived. 

  
 127









 ARTICLE VIII 
 CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 8.01. Duties of Trustee

 (a) The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default which
may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. In case an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights
and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent investor would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such investor’s own affairs. 

(b) The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments
furnished to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement. The Trustee shall notify the
Certificateholders of any such documents which do not materially conform to the requirements of this Agreement in the event that the Trustee, after so requesting, does not receive satisfactorily corrected documents. 

The Trustee shall forward or cause to be forwarded in a timely fashion the notices, reports and statements required to be forwarded by
the Trustee pursuant to Sections 4.03, 7.03, and 10.01. The Trustee shall furnish in a timely fashion to the Master Servicer such information as the Master Servicer may reasonably request from time to time for the Master Servicer to fulfill its
duties as set forth in this Agreement. The Trustee covenants and agrees that it shall perform its obligations hereunder in a manner so as to maintain the status of each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and (subject to
Section 10.01(f)) to prevent the imposition of any federal, state or local income, prohibited transaction, contribution or other tax on the Trust to the extent that maintaining such status and avoiding such taxes are reasonably within the
control of the Trustee and are reasonably within the scope of its duties under this Agreement. 
 (c) No provision of this
Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that: 

(i) Prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default, and after the curing or waiver of all such Events of Default which may have
occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in
this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee by the Depositor or the Master Servicer and which on their face, do not contradict the requirements of this Agreement; 

  
 128









 (ii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of judgment made in good faith
by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee, unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; 
 (iii) The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Certificateholders holding
Certificates which evidence, Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 25% of the affected Classes as to the time, method 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; 
 (iv) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default (other than a
default in payment to the Trustee) specified in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 or an Event of Default under clauses (iii), (iv) and (v) of Section 7.01 unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to and
working in the Corporate Trust Office obtains actual knowledge of such failure or event or the Trustee receives written notice of such failure or event at its Corporate Trust Office from the Master Servicer, the Depositor or any Certificateholder;
and 
 (v) Except to the extent provided in Section 7.02, no provision in this Agreement shall require the Trustee to
expend or risk its own funds (including, without limitation, the making of any Advance) or otherwise incur any personal financial liability in the performance of any of its duties as Trustee hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or
powers, if the Trustee shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. 

(d) The Trustee shall timely pay, from its own funds, the amount of any and all federal, state and local taxes imposed on the Trust or
its assets or transactions including, without limitation, (A) “prohibited transaction” penalty taxes as defined in Section 860F of the Code, if, when and as the same shall be due and payable, (B) any tax on contributions to
a REMIC after the Closing Date imposed by Section 860G(d) of the Code and (C) any tax on “net income from foreclosure property” as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, but only if such taxes arise out of a breach by the
Trustee of its obligations hereunder, which breach constitutes negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee. 
 Section
8.02. Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee 
 (a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01: 

(i) The Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers’ Certificate,
certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper
party or parties; 

  
 129









 (ii) The Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and
complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel; 
 (iii) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at
the request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and
liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default (which has not been cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers
vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent investor would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such investor’s own affairs; 

(iv) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be
authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement; 
 (v) Prior to the occurrence of
an Event of Default hereunder and after the curing of all Events of Default which may have occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument,
opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless directed in writing so to do by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the Voting Rights; provided, however, that if the
payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded
to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense or liability as a condition to so proceeding. The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Master Servicer, if an Event
of Default shall have occurred and is continuing, and otherwise by the Certificateholder requesting the investigation; 
 (vi)
The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys provided that the Trustee shall remain liable for any acts of such agents or attorneys; and

 (vii) To the extent authorized under the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder, each Holder of a Class R
Certificate hereby irrevocably appoints and authorizes the Trustee to be its attorney-in-fact for purposes of signing any Tax Returns required to be filed on behalf of the Trust. The Trustee shall sign on behalf of the Trust and deliver to the
Master Servicer in a timely manner any Tax Returns prepared by or on behalf of the Master Servicer that the Trustee is required to sign as determined by the Master Servicer pursuant to applicable federal, state or local tax laws, provided that the
Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for signing any such Tax Returns that contain errors or omissions. 

  
 130









 (b) Following the issuance of the Certificates (and except as provided for in
Section 2.04), the Trustee shall not accept any contribution of assets to the Trust unless (subject to Section 10.01(f)) it shall have obtained or been furnished with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such contribution will not
(i) cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or (ii) cause the Trust to be subject to any federal tax as a result of such contribution (including the imposition of
any federal tax on “prohibited transactions” imposed under Section 860F(a) of the Code). 
 Section 8.03.
Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans 
 The recitals contained herein and in the
Certificates (other than the execution of the Certificates and relating to the acceptance and receipt of the Mortgage Loans) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor or the Master Servicer as the case may be, and the Trustee assumes no
responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the Certificates (except that the Certificates shall be duly and validly executed and authenticated by it as
Certificate Registrar) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document, or of MERS or the MERS® System. Except as
otherwise provided herein, the Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor or the Master Servicer of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to
the Depositor or the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account by the Depositor or the Master Servicer. 

Section 8.04. Trustee May Own Certificates 
 The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee. 

Section 8.05. Master Servicer to Pay Trustee’s Fees and Expenses; Indemnification 

(a) The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the Trustee and any co-trustee from time to time, and the Trustee and any
co-trustee shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services rendered by each of them in the execution of the trusts
hereby created and in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Trustee and any co-trustee, and the Master Servicer shall pay or reimburse the Trustee and any co-trustee upon request for all reasonable expenses,
disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee or any co-trustee in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not
regularly in its employ, and the expenses incurred by the Trustee or any co-trustee in connection with the appointment of an office or agency pursuant to Section 8.12) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its
negligence or bad faith. 
 (b) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold the Trustee harmless
against, any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence or willful misconduct on its part, arising out of, or in connection with, the acceptance and administration of 

  
 131









 
the Trust, including its obligation to execute the DTC Letter in its individual capacity, and including the costs and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of defending itself
against any claim in connection with the exercise or performance of any of its powers or duties under this Agreement, and the Master Servicer further agrees to indemnify the Trustee for, and to hold the Trustee harmless against, any loss, liability
or expense arising out of, or in connection with, the provisions set forth in the last paragraph of Section 2.01(b) hereof, including without limitation, all costs, liabilities and expenses (including reasonable legal fees and expenses) of
investigating and defending itself against any claim, action or proceeding, pending or threatened, relating to the provisions of such paragraph, provided, that 
 (i) with respect to any such claim, the Trustee shall have given the Master Servicer written notice thereof promptly after the Trustee shall have actual knowledge thereof; 

(ii) while maintaining control over its own defense, the Trustee shall cooperate and consult fully with the Master Servicer in preparing
such defense; and 
 (iii) notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall not be liable
for settlement of any claim by the Trustee entered into without the prior consent of the Master Servicer which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 
 No termination of this Agreement shall affect the obligations created by this Section 8.05(b) of the Master Servicer to indemnify the Trustee under the conditions and to the extent set forth
herein. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnification provided by the Master Servicer in this
Section 8.05(b) shall not pertain to any loss, liability or expense of the Trustee, including the costs and expenses of defending itself against any claim, incurred in connection with any actions taken by the Trustee at the direction of
Certificateholders pursuant to the terms of this Agreement. 
 Section 8.06. Eligibility Requirements for Trustee

 The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a national banking association or a New York banking corporation having its
principal office in a state and city acceptable to the Depositor and organized and doing business under the laws of such state or the United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital
and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and having a sufficient rating so as to maintain the then current ratings of the Certificates. If such corporation or national banking
association publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such corporation
shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall
resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07. 

  
 132









 Section 8.07. Resignation and Removal of the Trustee 

(a) The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor
and the Master Servicer. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and one copy
to the successor trustee. If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation then the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction
for the appointment of a successor trustee. 
 (b) If at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor, or if at any time the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of
its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee and appoint a
successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor trustee. In addition, in the event that the Depositor determines that the Trustee has
failed (i) to distribute or cause to be distributed to Certificateholders any amount required to be distributed hereunder, if such amount is held by the Trustee or its Paying Agent (other than the Master Servicer or the Depositor) for
distribution or (ii) to otherwise observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants, agreements or obligations hereunder, and such failure shall continue unremedied for a period of 5 days (in respect of clause (i) above) or
30 days (in respect of clause (ii) above, other than any failure to comply with the provisions of Article XII, in which case no grace period shall be applicable) after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring that the same be
remedied, shall have been given to the Trustee by the Depositor, then the Depositor, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument delivered as provided in the
preceding sentence. In connection with the appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to the preceding sentence, the Depositor shall, on or before the date on which any such appointment becomes effective, obtain from each Rating Agency written
confirmation that the appointment of any such successor trustee will not result in the reduction of the ratings on any Class of the Certificates below the lesser of the then current or original ratings on such Certificates. 

(c) The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor
trustee by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee so removed and
one complete set to the successor so appointed. 
 (d) Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor
trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 8.08. 

  
 133









 Section 8.08. Successor Trustee 

(a) Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its
predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without
any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as trustee herein. The predecessor trustee shall deliver to
the successor trustee all Custodial Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder (other than any Custodial Files at the time held by a Custodian, which shall become the agent of any successor trustee hereunder), and the Depositor,
the Master Servicer and the predecessor trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers,
duties and obligations. 
 (b) No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time
of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06. 
 (c) Upon acceptance of
appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register. If the Depositor
fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the Depositor. 

Section 8.09. Merger or Consolidation of Trustee 
 Any corporation or national banking association into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation or national banking association resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or national banking association succeeding to the business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation or
national banking association shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The
Trustee shall mail notice of any such merger or consolidation to the Certificateholders at their address as shown in the Certificate Register. 
 Section 8.10. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee 
 (a)
Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust or property securing the same may at the time be located, the Master Servicer and the
Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees,
of all or any part of the Trust, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to the Trust, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of 

  
 134









 
this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Master Servicer shall not have
joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate
trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under
Section 8.08 hereof. 
 (b) In the case of any appointment of a co-trustee or separate trustee pursuant to this
Section 8.10 all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee, and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly, except to the extent
that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or
acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co-trustee at the direction
of the Trustee. 
 (c) Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of
the then separate trustees and co-trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and
co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the
provisions of this Agreement, specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee.
(d) Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on
its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent
permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Custodial Agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Each Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have a
combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Custodial File. Each Custodial Agreement with respect to the Custodial Files, may be amended only as provided in
Section 11.01. The Trustee shall notify the Certificateholders of the appointment of any Custodian (other than the Custodian appointed as of the Closing Date) pursuant to this Section 8.11. 

  
 135

Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Trustee initially designates its offices located at the Corporate Trust Office for the purpose of keeping the Certificate Register. The Trustee shall maintain an office at
the address stated in Section 11.05(c) hereof where notices and demands to or upon the Trustee in respect of this Agreement may be served.

Depositor to send certain notices as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon the last action required to be taken by the Trustee on the Final Distribution Date pursuant to this Article IX following the earlier of:

remaining in the Trust or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, or 
 (ii) at the option of the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as provided in Section 9.01(f), the purchase of all Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any
Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust, at a price equal to the sum of [(A)] 100% of the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan (or, if less than such unpaid principal balance, the fair market value of the related underlying property of such
Mortgage Loan with respect to Mortgage Loans as to which title has been acquired if such fair market value is less than such unpaid principal balance) (and if such purchase is made by the Master Servicer only, net of any unreimbursed P&I
Advances attributable to principal) on the day of repurchase, plus accrued interest thereon at the Net Mortgage Rate (or Modified Net Mortgage Rate in the case of any Modified Mortgage Loan) [plus the Certificate Insurer Premium Modified Rate], to,
but not including, the first day of the month in which such repurchase price is distributed[, including payments of any amounts due to the Certificate Insurer pursuant to the Insurance Agreement and (B) any unpaid Swap Termination Payment and
any Net Swap Payments payable to the Swap Counterparty (or any Swap Termination Payment payable to the Swap Counterparty as a result of the exercise of the option provided for in this Section 9.01(a)(ii))]; 

provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor
of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof; and provided further, that the purchase price set forth above shall be increased as is necessary, as determined
by the Master Servicer, to avoid disqualification of any REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC. 
 The purchase price paid by the
Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, pursuant to Section 9.01(a)(ii) shall also include any amounts owed by [            ] pursuant to the
last paragraph of Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement in respect of any liability, penalty or expense that resulted from a breach of the representation and warranty set forth in clause (w) of Section 4 of the Assignment Agreement
that remain unpaid on the date of such purchase. 

  
 137









 The right of the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable,
to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to clause (ii) above is conditioned upon the date of such purchase occurring on or after the Optional Termination Date. If such right is exercised by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer
shall be deemed to have been reimbursed for the full amount of any unreimbursed P&I Advances theretofore made by it with respect to the Mortgage Loans being purchased. In addition, the Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the
certification required by Section 3.15 and the Trustee and any Custodian shall, promptly following payment of the purchase price, release to the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, the Custodial Files
pertaining to the Mortgage Loans being purchased. [No purchase pursuant to clause (ii) of this Section 9.01(a) is permitted if it would result in a draw on the Certificate Guaranty Insurance Policy, unless the Certificate Insurer consents
in writing.] 
 In addition to the foregoing, on any Distribution Date on or after the Optional Termination Date, the Master
Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as provided in Section 9.01(f), shall have the right, at its option, to purchase the [Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates, Class B Certificates] and Class SB
Certificates in whole, but not in part, at a price equal to the sum of the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance of such Certificates plus the sum of one month’s Accrued Certificate Interest thereon, any previously unpaid Accrued
Certificate Interest, and any unpaid Prepayment Interest Shortfalls previously allocated thereto and, in the case of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, accrued interest thereon at the applicable Pass-Through Rate, plus, with respect to any optional
termination by the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, an amount equal to all accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees and reimbursement for all unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances, in each case through the date of such optional termination. If
the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, exercises this right to purchase the outstanding Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates, Class B Certificates and Class SB Certificates, the
Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, will promptly terminate the respective obligations and responsibilities created hereby in respect of these Certificates pursuant to this Article IX. 

(b) The Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, shall give the Trustee[, the Supplemental Interest
Trust Trustee, the Swap Counterparty (so long as the Swap Agreement has not previously been terminated) and the Certificate Insurer] (and the Master Servicer if the Holder of the Class SB Certificates is exercising its option) not less than 40
days’ prior notice of the Distribution Date on which (1) the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, anticipates that the final distribution will be made to Certificateholders as a result of the exercise
by the Holder of the Class SB Certificates or the Master Servicer, as applicable, of its right to purchase the Mortgage Loans) or (2) on which the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, anticipates that
the Certificates will be purchased as a result of the exercise by the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, to purchase the outstanding Certificates. Notice of any termination, specifying the anticipated Final
Distribution Date (which shall be a date that would otherwise be a Distribution Date) upon which the Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Trustee (if so required by the terms


  
 138









 
hereof) for payment of the final distribution and cancellation or notice of any purchase of the outstanding Certificates, specifying the Distribution Date upon which the Holders may surrender
their Certificates to the Trustee for payment, shall be given promptly by the Master Servicer (if it is exercising the right to purchase the Mortgage Loans or to purchase the outstanding Certificates), or by the Trustee (in any other case) by letter
to the Certificateholders (with a copy to the Certificate Registrar [and the Certificate Insurer]) mailed not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of such final distribution specifying:

 (i) the anticipated Final Distribution Date upon which final payment of the Certificates is anticipated to be made upon
presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein designated where required pursuant to this Agreement or, in the case of the purchase by the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as
applicable, of the outstanding Certificates, the Distribution Date on which such purchase is made, 
 (ii) the amount of any
such final payment or, in the case of the purchase of the outstanding Certificates, the purchase price, in either case, if known, and 
 (iii) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, and that payment will be made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office or agency
of the Trustee therein specified. 
 If the Master Servicer or the Trustee is obligated to give notice to Certificateholders as
required above, it shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event of a purchase of the Mortgage Loans by the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as
applicable, the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, shall deposit in the Certificate Account before the Final Distribution Date in immediately available funds an amount equal to the purchase price computed as
provided above. As a result of the exercise by the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, of its right to purchase the outstanding Certificates, the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as
applicable, shall deposit in an Eligible Account, established by the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee and separate from the Certificate Account, in the name of the Trustee in trust for the registered holders of the Certificates, before the
Distribution Date on which such purchase is to occur, in immediately available funds, an amount equal to the purchase price for the Certificates computed as provided above, and provide notice of such deposit to the Trustee [and the Certificate
Insurer]. The Trustee shall withdraw from such account the amount specified in subsection (c) below and distribute such amount to the Certificateholders as specified in subsection (c) below. The Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class
SB Certificates, as applicable, shall provide to the Trustee written notification of any change to the anticipated Final Distribution Date as soon as practicable. If the Trust is not terminated on the anticipated Final Distribution Date, for any
reason, the Trustee shall promptly mail notice thereof to each affected Certificateholder. 
 (c) Upon presentation and
surrender of the [Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates, Class B Certificates] and Class SB Certificates by the Certificateholders thereof, the Trustee shall distribute to such Certificateholders (i) the amount
otherwise distributable on such 

  
 139









 
Distribution Date, if not in connection with the Holder’s of the Class SB Certificates or the Master Servicer’s, as applicable, election to repurchase the Mortgage Loans or the
outstanding [Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates, Class B Certificates] and Class SB Certificates, or (ii) if the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, elected to so repurchase the
Mortgage Loans or the outstanding [Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates, Class B Certificates] and Class SB Certificates, an amount equal to the price paid pursuant to Section 9.01(a) as follows: first,
with respect to any optional termination by the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, payment of any accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees and reimbursement for all unreimbursed Advances, in each case through the date of such optional termination, to the
Master Servicer, second, with respect to the [Class A Certificates, pari passu, the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance thereof, plus Accrued Certificate Interest thereon for the related Interest Accrual Period and any
previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest, third, with respect to the Class M-1 Certificates, the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance thereof, plus Accrued Certificate Interest thereon for the related Interest Accrual Period

for the related Interest Accrual Period and any previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest, ninth, with respect to the Class M-7 Certificates, the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance thereof, plus Accrued Certificate Interest
thereon for the related Interest Accrual Period and any previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest, tenth, with respect to the Class M-8 Certificates, the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance thereof, plus Accrued Certificate
Interest thereon for the related Interest Accrual Period and any previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest, eleventh, with respect to the Class M-9 Certificates, the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance thereof, plus Accrued
Certificate Interest thereon for the related Interest Accrual Period and any previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest, twelfth, with respect to the Class B Certificates, the outstanding Certificate Principal Balance thereof, plus
Accrued Certificate Interest thereon for the related Interest Accrual Period and any previously unpaid Accrued Certificate Interest, thirteenth, to the Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates, the amount of any
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls allocated thereto for such Distribution Date or remaining unpaid from prior Distribution Dates and accrued interest thereon at the applicable Pass-Through Rate, on a pro rata basis based on Prepayment Interest
Shortfalls allocated thereto for such Distribution Date or remaining unpaid from prior Distribution Dates[, fourteenth, to the Certificate Insurer, any amounts owed to it pursuant to the Insurance Agreement, fifteenth, to the Swap
Counterparty (without duplication of amounts payable to the Swap Counterparty on such date in accordance with Section 4.02) any Swap Termination Payment payable to the Swap Counterparty then remaining unpaid or which is due to the exercise of
any early termination of the Trust Fund pursuant to this Section 9.01] and sixteenth, to the Class SB Certificates, all remaining amounts.] 

  
 140









 (d) In the event that any Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for
final payment and cancellation on or before the Final Distribution Date, the Master Servicer (if it exercised its right to purchase the Mortgage Loans) or the Trustee (in any other case), shall give a second written notice to the remaining
Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within six months after the second notice any Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee
shall take appropriate steps as directed by the Master Servicer to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining the Certificate Account and of contacting
Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain in the Certificate Account. If within nine months after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to the Master Servicer
all amounts distributable to the holders thereof and the Master Servicer shall thereafter hold such amounts until distributed to such Holders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in the Certificate
Account or by the Master Servicer as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 9.01 and the Certificateholders shall look only to the Master
Servicer for such payment. 
 (e) If any Certificateholders do not surrender their Certificates on or before the Distribution
Date on which a purchase of the outstanding Certificates is to be made, the Master Servicer shall give a second written notice to such Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for payment of the purchase price therefor. If within six
months after the second notice any Certificate shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall take appropriate steps as directed by the Master Servicer to contact the Holders of such Certificates concerning surrender of their
Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining the Certificate Account and of contacting Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets which remain in the Certificate Account. If within nine months after the second notice any Certificates
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation in accordance with this Section 9.01, the Trustee shall pay to the Master Servicer all amounts distributable to the Holders thereof and shall have no further obligation or liability therefor and
the Master Servicer shall thereafter hold such amounts until distributed to such Holders. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in the Certificate Account or by the Master Servicer as a result of such
Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for payment in accordance with this Section 9.01. Any Certificate that is not surrendered on the Distribution Date on which a purchase pursuant to this Section 9.01 occurs as
provided above will be deemed to have been purchased and the Holder as of such date will have no rights with respect thereto except to receive the purchase price therefor minus any costs and expenses associated with such Certificate Account and
notices allocated thereto. Any Certificates so purchased or deemed to have been purchased on such Distribution Date shall remain outstanding hereunder. The Master Servicer shall be for all purposes the Holder thereof as of such date. 

(f) With respect to the first possible Optional Termination Date, the Master Servicer shall have the sole option to exercise the purchase
options described in Section 9.01(a) and the Holder of the Class SB Certificates shall have no claim thereto. If, however, the 

  
 141









 
Master Servicer elects not to exercise one of its options to purchase pursuant to Section 9.01(a) with respect to the first possible Optional Termination Date, the Holder of the Class
SB Certificates shall have the sole option to exercise the purchase options described in Section 9.01(a) on the second possible Optional Termination Date and the Master Servicer shall have no claim thereto. If the Holder of the Class SB
Certificates elects not to exercise one of its options to purchase pursuant to Section 9.01(a) with respect to the second possible Optional Termination Date, it shall lose such right and have no claim to exercise any purchase options pursuant
to this Section 9.01(a) thereafter. Beginning with the third possible Optional Termination Date and thereafter, the Master Servicer shall again have the sole option to exercise the purchase options described in Section 9.01(a). 

(g) The Holder of the Class SB Certificates, if it is not the Master Servicer or any Subservicer, shall be deemed to represent that one
of the following will be true and correct: (i) the exercise of the optional termination right set forth in Section 9.01 shall not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code or (ii) the
Holder of the Class SB Certificates is (A) not a party in interest with respect to any Plan and (B) is not a “benefit plan investor” (other than a plan sponsored or maintained by the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as the
case may be, provided that no assets of such plan are invested or deemed to be invested in the Certificates). If the holder of the option is unable to exercise such option by reason of the preceding sentence, then the Master Servicer may exercise
such option. 
 Section 9.02. Additional Termination Requirements 

(a) Each of REMIC I and REMIC II, as the case may be, shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements,
unless the Trustee and the Master Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee) to the effect that the failure of any REMIC created hereunder to comply with the requirements of this
Section 9.02 will not (i) result in the imposition on the Trust of taxes on “prohibited transactions,” as described in Section 860F of the Code, or (ii) cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at
any time that any Certificate is outstanding: 
 (i) The Master Servicer shall establish a 90-day liquidation period for each
of REMIC I and REMIC II, and specify the first day of such period in a statement attached to the Trust’s final Tax Return pursuant to Treasury Regulations §1.860F-1. The Master Servicer also shall satisfy all of the requirements of a
qualified liquidation for each of REMIC I and REMIC II, under Section 860F of the Code and the regulations thereunder; 

(ii) The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee at the commencement of such 90-day liquidation period and, at or prior to the time of
making of the final payment on the Certificates, the Trustee shall sell or otherwise dispose of all of the remaining assets of the Trust in accordance with the terms hereof; and 

(iii) If the Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates is exercising its right to purchase the assets of the Trust, the
Master Servicer or the Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as applicable, shall, during the 90-day liquidation period and at or prior to the Final Distribution Date, purchase all of the assets of the Trust for cash. 

  
 142









 (b) Each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee hereby irrevocably approves and appoints
the Master Servicer as its attorney-in-fact to adopt a plan of complete liquidation for each of REMIC I and REMIC II at the expense of the Trust in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement. 

  
 143









 ARTICLE X 
 REMIC PROVISIONS 
 Section 10.01. REMIC Administration

 (a) The REMIC Administrator shall make an election to treat each of REMIC I and REMIC II as a REMIC under the Code and, if
necessary, under applicable state law. Such election will be made on Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return (including Form 8811) or any appropriate state return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar
year in which the Certificates are issued. The REMIC I Regular Interests shall be designated as the “regular interests” and the Class R-I Certificates shall be designated as the sole Class of “residual interests”
in REMIC I. The REMIC II Regular Interests shall be designated as the “regular interests” and the Class R-II Certificates shall be designated as the sole Class of “residual interests” in REMIC II. The
REMIC Administrator and the Trustee shall not permit the creation of any “interests” (within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) in the REMIC I or REMIC II other than the REMIC I Regular Interests, the REMIC II Regular
Interests, and the Certificates. 
 (b) The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “startup day” of each of REMIC I
and REMIC II within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code (the “Startup Date”). 
 (c) The REMIC
Administrator shall hold a Class R Certificate in each REMIC representing a 0.01% Percentage Interest of the Class R Certificates in each REMIC and shall be designated as the “tax matters person” with respect to each of REMIC I
and REMIC II in the manner provided under Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-4(d) and Treasury Regulations Section 301.6231(a)(7)-1. The REMIC Administrator, as tax matters person, shall (i) act on behalf of each of REMIC I and
REMIC II in relation to any tax matter or controversy involving the Trust and (ii) represent the Trust in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto.
The legal expenses, including without limitation attorneys’ or accountants’ fees, and costs of any such proceeding and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses of the Trust and the REMIC Administrator shall be entitled to
reimbursement therefor out of amounts attributable to the Mortgage Loans on deposit in the Custodial Account as provided by Section 3.10 unless such legal expenses and costs are incurred by reason of the REMIC Administrator’s willful
misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence. If the REMIC Administrator is no longer the Master Servicer hereunder, at its option the REMIC Administrator may continue its duties as REMIC Administrator and shall be paid reasonable compensation not to
exceed $3,000 per year by any successor Master Servicer hereunder for so acting as the REMIC Administrator. 
 (d) The REMIC
Administrator shall prepare or cause to be prepared all of the Tax Returns that it determines are required with respect to the REMICs created hereunder and deliver such Tax Returns in a timely manner to the Trustee and the Trustee shall sign and
file such Tax Returns in a timely manner. The expenses of preparing such returns shall be borne by the REMIC Administrator without any right of reimbursement therefor. The REMIC Administrator agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee with
respect to any tax or 

  
 144









 
liability arising from the Trustee’s signing of Tax Returns that contain errors or omissions. The Trustee and Master Servicer shall promptly provide the REMIC Administrator with such
information as the REMIC Administrator may from time to time request for the purpose of enabling the REMIC Administrator to prepare Tax Returns. 
 (e) The REMIC Administrator shall provide (i) to any Transferor of a Class R Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a
Class R Certificate to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, (ii) to the Trustee and the Trustee shall forward to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including
reports relating to interest, original issue discount, if any, and market discount or premium (using the Prepayment Assumption) and (iii) to the Internal Revenue Service the name, title, address and telephone number of the person who will serve
as the representative of each REMIC created hereunder. 
 (f) The Master Servicer and the REMIC Administrator shall take such
actions and shall cause each REMIC created hereunder to take such actions as are reasonably within the Master Servicer’s or the REMIC Administrator’s control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein as shall be
necessary or desirable to maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions (and the Trustee shall assist the Master Servicer and the REMIC Administrator, to the extent reasonably requested by the Master Servicer and the REMIC
Administrator to do so). In performing their duties as more specifically set forth herein, the Master Servicer and the REMIC Administrator shall not knowingly or intentionally take any action, cause the Trust to take any action or fail to take (or
fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within their respective control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the
status of any REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC created hereunder (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code
(except as provided in Section 2.04) and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, in the absence of an Opinion of Counsel or the indemnification referred to in this sentence, an
“Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action or, if such party fails to pay such expense, and the
Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, determines that taking such action is in the best interest of the Trust and the Certificateholders, at the expense of the Trust, but in no event at the expense of the Master Servicer, the
REMIC Administrator or the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to the Trust created hereunder, endanger such status or, unless the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator or both, as applicable, determine in
its or their sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against the imposition of such a tax, result in the imposition of such a tax. Wherever in this Agreement a contemplated action may not be taken because the timing of such action might result in the
imposition of a tax on the Trust, or may only be taken pursuant to an Opinion of Counsel that such action would not impose a tax on the Trust, such action may nonetheless be taken provided that the indemnity given in the preceding sentence with
respect to any taxes that might be imposed on the Trust has been given and that all other preconditions to the taking of such action have been satisfied. The Trustee shall not take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as
to which the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, has advised it in writing that it has received 

  
 145









 
an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action or inaction, as the case may be. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to
the Trust or its assets, or causing the Trust to take any action, which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee shall consult with the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, or its designee, in
writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to the Trust and the Trustee shall not take any such action or cause the Trust to take any such action as to which the Master Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator, as applicable, has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur. The Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator, as applicable, may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne
by the party seeking to take the action not expressly permitted by this Agreement, but in no event at the expense of the Master Servicer or the REMIC Administrator. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Master Servicer or the REMIC
Administrator, as applicable, will to the extent within its control and the scope of its duties more specifically set forth herein, maintain substantially all of the assets of the REMIC as “qualified mortgages” as defined in
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code. 

(g) In the event that any tax is imposed on “prohibited transactions” of any REMIC created hereunder as defined in
Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on “net income from foreclosure property” of any REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to any REMIC after the Startup Date therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d)
of the Code, or any other tax imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall be charged (i) to the Master Servicer, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer in its
role as Master Servicer or REMIC Administrator of any of its obligations under this Agreement or the Master Servicer has in its sole discretion determined to indemnify the Trust against such tax, (ii) to the Trustee, if such tax arises out of
or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Article X, or (iii) otherwise against amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account as provided by Section 3.10 and on the Distribution Date(s) following such
reimbursement the aggregate of such taxes shall be allocated in reduction of the Accrued Certificate Interest on each Class entitled thereto in the same manner as if such taxes constituted a Prepayment Interest Shortfall. 

(h) The Trustee and the Master Servicer shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to each REMIC on
a calendar year and on an accrual basis or as otherwise may be required by the REMIC Provisions. 
 (i) Following the Startup
Date, neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to any REMIC unless (subject to Section 10.01(f)) the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the
party seeking to make such contribution) to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in any REMIC will not cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject any such
REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances. 

  
 146









 (j) Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall (subject to Section 10.01(f))
enter into any arrangement by which any REMIC created hereunder will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit any REMIC created hereunder to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as defined in
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code. 

(k) Solely for purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury Regulations, the “latest possible maturity
date” by which the principal balance of each regular interest in each REMIC would be reduced to zero is [            ], 20[    ], which is the Distribution Date in
the month following the last scheduled payment on any Mortgage Loan. 
 (l) Within 30 days after the Closing Date, the REMIC
Administrator shall prepare and file with the Internal Revenue Service Form 8811, “Information Return for Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduits (REMIC) and Issuers of Collateralized Debt Obligations” for the Trust. 

(m) Neither the Trustee nor the Master Servicer shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection
with (i) the default, imminent default or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust,
(iii) the termination of any REMIC pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement or (iv) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or III of this Agreement) or acquire any assets for any REMIC or sell or dispose of any investments in
the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account for gain, or accept any contributions to any REMIC after the Closing Date unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel that such sale, disposition, substitution or acquisition will not (a) affect
adversely the status of any REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC or (b) unless the Master Servicer has determined in its sole discretion to indemnify the Trust against such tax, cause any REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited
transactions” or “contributions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions. 
 Section 10.02. Master Servicer,
REMIC Administrator and Trustee Indemnification 
 (a) The Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust, the Depositor, the REMIC
Administrator and the Master Servicer for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as a result of a breach of the Trustee’s
covenants set forth in Article VIII or this Article X. In the event that [            ] is no longer the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall indemnify
[            ] for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by
[            ] as a result of a breach of the Trustee’s covenants set forth in Article VIII or this Article X. 
 (b) The REMIC Administrator agrees to indemnify the Trust, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee for any taxes and costs (including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees)
imposed on or incurred by the Trust, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as a result of a breach of the REMIC Administrator’s covenants set forth in this Article X with respect to compliance with the REMIC Provisions, including
without limitation, any penalties arising from the Trustee’s execution of Tax Returns prepared by the REMIC Administrator that contain errors or omissions; provided, however, that such liability

 ARTICLE XI 
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
 Section 11.01. Amendment 

(a) This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee,
[with the consent of the Certificate Insurer but] without the consent of any of the Certificateholders: 
 (i) to cure any
ambiguity, 
 (ii) to correct or supplement any provisions herein or therein, which may be inconsistent with any other
provisions herein or therein or to correct any error, 
 (iii) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such
extent as shall be necessary or desirable to maintain the qualification of any REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC at all times that any Certificate is outstanding or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on the Trust pursuant to
the Code that would be a claim against the Trust, provided that the Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the
imposition of any such tax and (B) such action will not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder, 
 (iv) to change the timing and/or nature of deposits into the Custodial Account or the Certificate Account or to change the name in which the Custodial Account is maintained, provided that (A) the
Certificate Account Deposit Date shall in no event be later than the related Distribution Date, (B) such change shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder
and (C) such change shall not result in a reduction of the rating assigned to any Class of Certificates below the lower of the then-current rating or the rating assigned to such Certificates as of the Closing Date [(without taking into
account the Certificate Guaranty Insurance Policy)], as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency to such effect, 
 (v) to
modify, eliminate or add to the provisions of Section 5.02(f) or any other provision hereof restricting transfer of the Class R Certificates by virtue of their being the “residual interests” in the Trust provided that
(A) such change shall not result in reduction of the rating assigned to any such Class of Certificates below the lower of the then-current rating or the rating assigned to such Certificates as of the Closing Date, as evidenced by a letter
from each Rating Agency to such effect, and (B) such change shall not (subject to Section 10.01(f)), as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking so to modify, eliminate or add such provisions), cause the
Trust or any of the Certificateholders (other than the transferor) to be subject to a federal tax caused by a transfer to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, or 
 (vi) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement which shall not be materially inconsistent with the provisions of this
Agreement, provided that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder and is authorized or permitted under Section 11.01. 

  
 149









 (b) This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates with a Certificate Principal Balance greater than zero affected
thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates of such Class;
provided, however, that no such amendment shall: 
 (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of,
payments which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, 
 (ii)
adversely affect in any material respect the interest of the Holders of Certificates of any Class in a manner other than as described in clause (i) hereof without the consent of Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing, as to
such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating not less than 66%, or 
 (iii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Certificates of
any Class the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment, in any such case without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates of such Class then outstanding. 

(c) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it
shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking such amendment) to the effect that such amendment or the exercise of any power granted to the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee in accordance with such
amendment will not result in the imposition of a federal tax on the Trust or cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding; provided, that if the indemnity described in
Section 10.01(f) with respect to any taxes that might be imposed on the Trust has been given, the Trustee shall not require the delivery to it of the Opinion of Counsel described in this Section 11.01(c). The Trustee may but shall not
be obligated to enter into any amendment pursuant to this Section that affects its rights, duties and immunities and this Agreement or otherwise; provided, however, such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. 

(d) Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment
to each Certificateholder. It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 11.01 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 Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe. 

  
 150









 (e) The Depositor shall have the option, in its sole discretion, to obtain and deliver to
the Trustee any corporate guaranty, payment obligation, irrevocable letter of credit, surety bond, insurance policy or similar instrument or a reserve fund, or any combination of the foregoing, for the purpose of protecting the Holders of the
Class SB Certificates against any or all Realized Losses or other shortfalls. Any such instrument or fund shall be held by the Trustee for the benefit of the Class SB Certificateholders, but shall not be and shall not be deemed to be under
any circumstances included in any REMIC. To the extent that any such instrument or fund constitutes a reserve fund for federal income tax purposes, (i) any reserve fund so established shall be an outside reserve fund and not an asset of such
REMIC, (ii) any such reserve fund shall be owned by the Depositor, and (iii) amounts transferred by such REMIC to any such reserve fund shall be treated as amounts distributed by such REMIC to the Depositor or any successor, all within the
meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h) in effect as of the Cut-off Date. In connection with the provision of any such instrument or fund, this Agreement and any provision hereof may be modified, added to, deleted or otherwise
amended in any manner that is related or incidental to such instrument or fund or the establishment or administration thereof, such amendment to be made by written instrument executed or consented to by the Depositor and such related insurer but
without the consent of any Certificateholder and without the consent of the Master Servicer or the Trustee being required unless any such amendment would impose any additional obligation on, or otherwise adversely affect the interests of the
Certificateholders, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable; provided that the Depositor obtains an Opinion of Counsel (which need not be an opinion of Independent counsel) to the effect that any such amendment will not cause (a) any
federal tax to be imposed on the Trust, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited transactions” under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or on “contributions after the startup date” under
Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code and (b) any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. 
 (f) [Reserved]. 
 (g) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in
Sections 11.01(b), (c), (d), and (e), any amendment of Section 4.10 of this Agreement shall require the consent of the Swap Counterparty as a third-party beneficiary of Section 4.10 of this Agreement. 

Section 11.02. Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts 

(a) To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real
property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by
the Master Servicer and at its expense on direction by the Trustee (pursuant to the request of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights), but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect
that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of the Certificateholders. 
 (b) For the purpose of
facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such
counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

 Section 11.03. Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders 

(a) The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust, nor entitle such
Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of any of the
parties hereto. 
 (b) No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as expressly provided herein) or in any manner
otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust, or the obligations of the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth, or contained in the terms of the Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from
time to time as partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any third person by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof. 

(c) No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in
equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of
Certificates of any Class evidencing in the aggregate not less than 25% of the related Percentage Interests of such Class, shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee
hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee shall have given its written consent and the Trustee, for 60
days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with
every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates of any Class shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the
Holders of any other of such Certificates of such Class or any other Class, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided
and for the common benefit of Certificateholders of such Class or all Classes, as the case may be. For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 11.03, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be
entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

 ARTICLE XII 
 COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION AB 
 Section 12.01. Intent of the
Parties; Reasonableness. 
 The Depositor, the Trustee and the Master Servicer acknowledge and agree that the purpose of
this Article XII is to facilitate compliance by the Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB and related rules and regulations of the Commission. The Depositor shall not exercise its right to request delivery of information or other
performance under these provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and the rules and regulations of the Commission under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Each of the
Master Servicer and the Trustee acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, consensus among participants in the
mortgage-backed securities markets, advice of counsel, or otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests made by the Depositor in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of evolving interpretations of Regulation AB.
Each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Depositor to deliver to the Depositor (including any of its assignees or designees), any and all disclosure, statements, reports, certifications, records and any other
information necessary in the reasonable, good faith determination of the Depositor to permit the Depositor or such Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Master Servicer, the Trustee
and the Mortgage Loans, or the servicing of the Mortgage Loans, reasonably believed by the Depositor to be necessary in order to effect such compliance. 
 Section 12.02. Additional Representations and Warranties of the Trustee. 
 (a) The Trustee shall be deemed to represent to the Depositor as of the date hereof and on each date on which information is provided to the Depositor under Sections 12.01, 12.02(b) or 12.03 that, except
as disclosed in writing to the Depositor prior to such date: (i) it is not aware and has not received notice that any default, early amortization or other performance triggering event has occurred as to any other Securitization Transaction due
to any default of the Trustee; (ii) there are no aspects of its financial condition that could have a material adverse effect on the performance by it of its trustee obligations under this Agreement or any other Securitization Transaction as to
which it is the trustee; (iii) there are no material legal or governmental proceedings pending (or known to be contemplated) against it that would be material to Certificateholders; (iv) there are no relationships or transactions relating
to the Trustee with respect to the Depositor or any sponsor, issuing entity, servicer, trustee, originator, significant obligor, enhancement or support provider or other material transaction party (as such terms are used in Regulation AB) relating
to the Securitization Transaction contemplated by the Agreement, as identified by the Depositor to the Trustee in writing as of the Closing Date (each, a “Transaction Party”) that are outside the ordinary course of business or on terms
other than would be obtained in an arm’s length transaction with an unrelated third party, apart from the Securitization Transaction, and that are material to the investors’ understanding of the Certificates; and (v) the Trustee is
not an affiliate of any Transaction Party. The Depositor shall notify the Trustee of any change in the identity of a Transaction Party after the Closing Date. 

  
 157









 (b) If so requested by the Depositor on any date following the Closing Date, the Trustee
shall, within five Business Days following such request, confirm in writing the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section or, if any such representation and warranty is not accurate as of the date
of such request or such confirmation, provide reasonably adequate disclosure of the pertinent facts, in writing, to the requesting party. 
 Section 12.03. Information to Be Provided by the Trustee. 
 For so
long as the Certificates are outstanding, for the purpose of satisfying the Depositor’s reporting obligation under the Exchange Act with respect to any class of Certificates, the Trustee shall provide to the Depositor a written description of
(a) any litigation or governmental proceedings pending against the Trustee as of the last day of each calendar month that would be material to Certificateholders, and (b) any affiliations or relationships (as described in Item 1119 of
Regulation AB) that develop following the Closing Date between the Trustee and any Transaction Party of the type described in Section 12.02(a)(iv) or 12.02(a)(v) as of the last day of each calendar year. Any descriptions required with respect
to legal proceedings, as well as updates to previously provided descriptions, under this Section 12.03 shall be given no later than five Business Days prior to the Determination Date following the month in which the relevant event occurs, and
any notices and descriptions required with respect to affiliations, as well as updates to previously provided descriptions, under this Section 12.03 shall be given no later than January 31 of the calendar year following the year in which
the relevant event occurs. As of the date the Depositor or Master Servicer files each Report on Form 10 D and Report on Form 10 K with respect to the Certificates, the Trustee will be deemed to represent that any information previously provided
under this Article XII is materially correct and does not have any material omissions unless the Trustee has provided an update to such information. The Depositor will allow the Trustee to review any disclosure relating to material litigation
against the Trustee prior to filing such disclosure with the Commission to the extent the Depositor changes the information provided by the Trustee. 
 Section 12.04. Report on Assessment of Compliance and Attestation. 

On or before March 15 of each calendar year, the Trustee shall: 

(a) deliver to the Depositor a report (in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor) regarding the Trustee’s
assessment of compliance with the applicable Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding calendar year, as required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report shall be addressed to the
Depositor and signed by an authorized officer of the Trustee, and shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on Exhibit R hereto; and

and former directors, officers, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and any

Information”), or (B) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Trustee Information a material fact required to be stated in the Trustee Information or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading; provided, by way of clarification, that clause (B) of this paragraph shall be construed solely by reference to the Trustee Information and not to any other information communicated in

(ii) any failure by the Trustee to deliver any information, report, certification, accountants’ attestation or other material when

and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising out of or based upon (i) any untrue statement of a
material fact contained or alleged to be contained in any information provided under this Agreement by or on behalf of the Depositor or [            ] for inclusion in any report filed with
Commission under the Exchange Act (collectively, the “[            ] Information”), or (ii) the omission or alleged omission to state in the
[            ] Information a material fact required to be stated in the [            ] Information or necessary in order to make
the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under

evidencing a percentage interest in the distributions allocable to the Class A-[    ] Certificates with respect
to a Trust consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest rate, first lien mortgage loans sold by PHOENIX RESIDENTIAL SECURITIES, LLC 
 This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to
below or [            ] or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by
Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or [            ] or any of their affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
[            ] or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates. 

This certifies that [            ] is the registered owner of the Percentage
Interest evidenced by this Certificate (obtained by dividing the Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate by the aggregate Initial Certificate Principal Balance of all Class A-[    ] Certificates, both as
specified above) in certain distributions with respect to the Trust consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest rate, first lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), sold by Phoenix
Residential Securities, LLC (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as specified above
(the “Agreement”) among the Depositor, the Master Servicer and [            ], as trustee (the “Trustee”), a summary of certain of the


  
 A-2









 
pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued
under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound. 

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business
Day, the Business Day immediately following (the “Distribution Date”), commencing as described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the day prior (or if such last day is
not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such day) to such Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this
Certificate and the amount of interest and principal, if any, required to be distributed to Holders of Class A-[    ] Certificates on such Distribution Date. 

Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the Master Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent
appointed by the Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the address
of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. 
 Notwithstanding the above,
the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of, this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose in
[            ]. The Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth above. The Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced from time to time pursuant to the
Agreement. 
 This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as
Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the “Certificates”). 
 The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master
Servicer funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been
distributable to Certificateholders. 
 As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the
Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them. 

  
 A-3









 The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the
Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee
with the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and
binding on such Holder and upon all future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The
Agreement also permits the amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates.

 As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is
registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee [            ], duly endorsed by,
or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing,
and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement.
As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder
surrendering the same. 
 No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Trustee may
require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 The
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner
hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 
 The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the
Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in
lieu of foreclosure 

  
 A-4









 
of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer or Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as described in the Agreement, thereby effecting early retirement of the related
Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the purchase by the Master Servicer or Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as described in the Agreement, (i) from the Trust of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired
in respect of such Mortgage Loans, at a price determined as provided in the Agreement, or (ii) in whole, but not in part, of all of the Class A Certificates, [Class M Certificates] and Class SB Certificates from the Holders thereof;
provided, that any such options may only be exercised if the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans (before giving effect to the distributions to be made on such Distribution Date), as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any
such purchase are distributed is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans. 
 Unless
the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

evidencing a percentage interest in the distributions allocable to the Class M-[    ] Certificates with respect to a
Trust consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest rate, first lien mortgage loans sold by PHOENIX RESIDENTIAL SECURITIES, LLC 
 This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to
below or [            ] or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by
Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or [            ] or any of their affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
[            ] or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates. 

This certifies that [            ] is the registered owner of the Percentage
Interest evidenced by this Certificate (obtained by dividing the Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate by the aggregate Initial Certificate Principal Balance of all Class M-[    ] Certificates, both as
specified above) in certain distributions with respect to the Trust consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of one- to four-family fixed and adjustable rate, first lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), sold by Phoenix
Residential Securities, LLC (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as specified above
(the “Agreement”) among the Depositor, the Master Servicer and [            ], as trustee (the “Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is
set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which
Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound. 

  
 B-1-3









 Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each
month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (the “Distribution Date”), commencing as described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the day prior (or if such last day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such day) to such Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product
of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of interest and principal, if any, required to be distributed to Holders of Class M-[    ] Certificates on such Distribution Date. 

Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the Master Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent
appointed by the Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the address
of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. 
 Notwithstanding the above,
the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose in
[            ]. The Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth above. The Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to the extent of the distributions
allocable to principal and any Realized Losses allocable hereto. 
 Any Transferee of this Certificate will be deemed to have
made representations relating to the permissibility of such transfer under ERISA and Section 4975 of the Code, as described in Section 5.02(e)(ii) of the Agreement. In addition, any purported Certificate Owner whose acquisition or holding
of this Certificate (or interest therein) was effected in violation of the restrictions in Section 5.02(e)(ii) of the Agreement shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Subservicer, any underwriter
and the Trust from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by such parties as a result of such acquisition or holding. 
 This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively
called the “Certificates”). The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer
funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable
to Certificateholders. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than
distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them.

 The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the
Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with
the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding
on such Holder and upon all future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also

 MORTGAGE-BACKED PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES 

SERIES 20[    ]-[ABC][    ] 

evidencing a percentage interest in the distributions allocable to the Class B-[    ] Certificates with respect to a
Trust consisting primarily of a pool of one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest rate, first lien mortgage loans sold by PHOENIX RESIDENTIAL SECURITIES, LLC 
 This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to
below or [            ] or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by
Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or [            ] or any of their affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
[            ] or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates. 

  
 B-2-2









 This certifies that Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC is the registered owner of the
Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate (obtained by dividing the Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate by the aggregate Initial Certificate Principal Balance of all Class B-[    ] Certificates, both
as specified above) in certain distributions with respect to the Trust consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of one- to four-family fixed and adjustable rate, first lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), sold by Phoenix
Residential Securities, LLC (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as specified above
(the “Agreement”) among the Depositor, the Master Servicer and [            ], as trustee (the “Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is
set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which
Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound. 

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business
Day, the Business Day immediately following (the “Distribution Date”), commencing as described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the day prior (or if such last day is
not a Business Day, the Business Day next preceding such day) to such Distribution Date (the “Record Date”), from the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate
and the amount of interest and principal, if any, required to be distributed to Holders of Class B-[    ] Certificates on such Distribution Date. 
 Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the Master Servicer acting on behalf of the Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed by the Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer
or otherwise) for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on
the Certificate Register. 
 Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice
of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose in [            ]. The
Initial Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate is set forth above. The Certificate Principal Balance hereof will be reduced to the extent of the distributions allocable to principal and any Realized Losses allocable hereto. 

  
 B-2-3









 No transfer of this Class B Certificate will be made unless such transfer is exempt from the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event that such a transfer is to be made, (i) the Trustee or the Company may
require an opinion of counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Company that such transfer is exempt (describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor) from or is being made pursuant to the
registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and of any applicable statute of any state and (ii) the transferee shall execute an investment letter in the form described by the Agreement. The Holder hereof desiring to
effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Company, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar acting on behalf of the Trustee against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is
not made in accordance with such Federal and state laws. In connection with any such transfer, the Trustee will also require either (i) an opinion of counsel addressed to the Trustee, the Company and the Master Servicer, acceptable to and in
form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee with respect to the permissibility of such transfer under the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), and Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code (the
“Code”) and stating, among other things, that the transferee’s acquisition of a Class B Certificate will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code
or (ii) a representation letter, in the form as described by Section 5.02(e) of the Agreement, either stating that the transferee is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or
Section 4975 of the Code (a “Plan”), or any other person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any Plan) acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of or purchasing any Certificate with “plan
assets” of any Plan, or stating that the transferee is an insurance company, the source of funds to be used by it to purchase the Certificate is an “insurance company general account” (within the meaning of Department of Labor
Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 95-60), and the purchase is being made in reliance upon the availability of the exemptive relief afforded under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60. 

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through
Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively called the “Certificates”). The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set
forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such
Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable to Certificateholders. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made
by the Master Servicer from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred,
by either of them. 

  
 B-2-4









 The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the
Agreement and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with
the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding
on such Holder and upon all future holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also
permits the amendment thereof in certain circumstances without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates. 

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in
[                    ], duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form
satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class
and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Certificates are issuable
only as registered Certificates without coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of
authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in
connection therewith. 
 The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such
agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York. 

  
 B-2-5









 The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and the Trust
created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the maturity or other liquidation
of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer or Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as
described in the Agreement, thereby effecting early retirement of the related Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the purchase by the Master Servicer or Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as described in the Agreement,
(i) from the Trust of all remaining Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans, at a price determined as provided in the Agreement, or (ii) in whole, but not in part, of all of the Class A Certificates,
Class M Certificates and Class SB Certificates from the Holders thereof; provided, that any such options may only be exercised if the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans (before giving effect to the distributions to be made on such
Distribution Date), as of the Distribution Date upon which the proceeds of any such purchase are distributed is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans. 

Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate
shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose.

evidencing a percentage interest in the distributions allocable to the Class SB Certificates with respect to a Trust consisting primarily
of a pool of one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest rate, first lien mortgage loans sold by PHOENIX RESIDENTIAL SECURITIES, LLC 
 This Certificate is payable solely from the assets of the Trust, and does not represent an obligation of or interest in Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, the Master Servicer, the Trustee referred to
below or any of their affiliates. Neither this Certificate nor the underlying Mortgage Loans are guaranteed or insured by any governmental agency or instrumentality or by Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or any
of their affiliates. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of their affiliates will have any obligation with respect to any certificate or other obligation secured by or payable from payments on the Certificates. 

This certifies that [            ] is the registered owner of the Percentage
Interest evidenced by this Certificate (obtained by dividing the Certificate Principal Balance of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of all Class SB Certificates, both as specified above) in certain distributions with
respect to the Trust consisting primarily of an interest in a pool of one- to four-family fixed and adjustable interest rate, first lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), sold by Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC (hereinafter called
the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement referred to below). The Trust was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as specified above (the “Agreement”) among the Depositor,
the Master Servicer and [            ], as trustee (the “Trustee”), a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter. To the extent not defined
herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement. This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by
virtue of the acceptance hereof, assents and by which such Holder is bound. 

  
 C-2









 Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each
month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (the “Distribution Date”), commencing as described in the Agreement, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the last day (or if such last day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately preceding such last day) of the month immediately preceding the month in which the related Distribution Date occurs (the “Record Date”), from
the Available Distribution Amount in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount of interest and principal, if any, required to be distributed to Holders of Class SB Certificates on such
Distribution Date. 
 Distributions on this Certificate will be made either by the Master Servicer acting on behalf of the
Trustee or by a Paying Agent appointed by the Trustee in immediately available funds (by wire transfer or otherwise) for the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Master Servicer or such Paying Agent, or by
check mailed to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. 

Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution
and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose in [            ]. 

The Notional Amount of this Class SB Certificate as of any date of determination will be calculated as described in the Agreement. This
Class SB Certificate will not accrue interest on its Certificate Principal Balance. 
 No transfer of this Class SB Certificate
will be made unless such transfer is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event that such a transfer is
to be made, (i) the Trustee or the Depositor may require an opinion of counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor that such transfer is exempt (describing the applicable exemption and the basis
therefor) from or is being made pursuant to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and of any applicable statute of any state and (ii) the transferee shall execute an investment letter in the form described by
the Agreement. The Holder hereof desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar acting on behalf of the Trustee against any liability that may
result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such Federal and state laws. 
 No transfer of this
Certificate or any interest therein shall be made to any employee benefit plan or other plan or arrangement subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or any person (including an insurance company
investing its general account, an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any such plan) who is using “plan assets” of any such plan to effect such acquisition (each of the foregoing, a “Plan Investor”) unless the
Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer are provided with either (i) a 

  
 C-3









 
certification pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(i)(B) of the Agreement or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Depositor and the
Master Servicer to the effect that the purchase or holding of this Certificate is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the
Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent enactments), and will not subject the Trustee, the Depositor or the Master Servicer to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code)
in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Master Servicer. 
 This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively
called the “Certificates”). 
 The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries
respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent
provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable to Certificateholders. 
 As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for
purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them. 

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future holders
of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof in certain
circumstances without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of the. Holders of certain Classes of Certificates. 

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in [            ], duly endorsed by, or accompanied
by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon
one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 

  
 C-4









 The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in Classes and
in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate
Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge will be made for any such
registration of transfer or exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith. 
 The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name
this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 

This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York. 

The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and the Trust created thereby shall terminate upon the payment to
Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the maturity or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan subject thereto or the
disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, and (ii) the purchase by the Master Servicer or Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as described in the Agreement, thereby effecting
early retirement of the related Certificates. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the purchase by the Master Servicer or Holder of the Class SB Certificates, as described in the Agreement, (i) from the Trust of all remaining Mortgage
Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans, at a price determined as provided in the Agreement, or (ii) in whole, but not in part, of all of the [Class A Certificates, Class M Certificates] and Class SB Certificates from
the Holders thereof; provided, that any such options may only be exercised if the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans (before giving effect to the distributions to be made on such Distribution Date), as of the Distribution Date upon which
the proceeds of any such purchase are distributed is less than ten percent of the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Certificate Registrar by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid
for any purpose.

 Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the
office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose in [            ]. The Holder of this Certificate may have additional obligations with respect to this Certificate, including tax
liabilities. 
 No transfer of this Class R-[    ] Certificate will be made unless such transfer is exempt
from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with said Act and laws. In the event that such a transfer is to be made, (i) the Trustee or the
Depositor may require an opinion of counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor that such transfer is exempt (describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor) from or is being made
pursuant to the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and of any applicable statute of any state and (ii) the transferee shall execute an investment letter in the form described by the Agreement. The Holder hereof
desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar acting on behalf of the Trustee against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such Federal and state laws. 
 No transfer of this Certificate or any interest therein
shall be made to any employee benefit plan or other plan or arrangement subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or any person (including an insurance company investing its general account, an
investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any such plan) who is

using “plan assets” of any such plan to effect such acquisition (each of the foregoing, a “Plan Investor”) unless the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer are
provided with either (i) a certification pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(i)(B) of the Agreement or (ii) an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer to
the effect that the purchase or holding of this Certificate is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable
provisions of any subsequent enactments), and will not subject the Trustee, the Depositor or the Master Servicer to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those
undertaken in the Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Master Servicer. 
 This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates issued in several Classes designated as Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified hereon (herein collectively
called the “Certificates”). 
 The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries
respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. In the event Master Servicer funds are advanced with respect to any Mortgage Loan, such advance is reimbursable to the Master Servicer, to the extent
provided in the Agreement, from related recoveries on such Mortgage Loan or from other cash that would have been distributable to Certificateholders. 
 As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Custodial Account and/or the Certificate Account created for the benefit of Certificateholders may be made by the Master Servicer from time to time for
purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including without limitation reimbursement to the Depositor and the Master Servicer of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, by either of them. 

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment of the Agreement and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates
evidencing in the aggregate not less than 66% of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future holders
of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon the Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof in certain
circumstances without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates and, in certain additional circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of certain Classes of Certificates. 

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the
Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee in [            ], duly endorsed by, or accompanied
by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar 

  
 D-5









 
duly executed by the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and
aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees. 
 The Certificates are issuable only
as registered Certificates without coupons in Classes and in denominations specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of
authorized denominations evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same. 
 No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in
connection therewith. 
 The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of the
Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee nor any such
agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary. 
 This Certificate shall be governed by and construed in accordance with the
laws of the State of New York. 
 The obligations created by the Agreement in respect of the Certificates and the Trust created
thereby shall terminate upon the payment to Certificateholders of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement. 
 Unless the certificate of authentication hereon has been executed by the Certificate Registrar, by manual signature, this Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid
for any purpose.

 EXHIBIT E 
 FORM OF CUSTODIAL AGREEMENT 
 THIS CUSTODIAL AGREEMENT (as amended and
supplemented from time to time, the “Agreement”), dated as of [            ] 1, 20[    ], by and among
[            ]., as trustee (including its successors under the Pooling Agreement defined below, the “Trustee”), PHOENIX RESIDENTIAL SECURITIES, LLC, as company (together with any
successor in interest, the “Company”), [            ], as master servicer (together with any successor in interest or successor under the Pooling Agreement referred to below, the
“Master Servicer”) and [            ], as custodian (together with any successor in interest or any successor appointed hereunder, the “Custodian”). 

W I T N E S S E T H T H A T: 
 WHEREAS, the Company, the Master Servicer, and the Trustee have entered into a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of [            ] 1,
20[    ], relating to the issuance of Phoenix Residential Securities, LLC, Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 20[    ]-[ABC][    ] (as in effect on the date of this
Agreement, the “Original Pooling Agreement,” and as amended and supplemented from time to time, the “Pooling Agreement”); and 
 WHEREAS, the Custodian has agreed to act as agent for the Trustee for the purposes of receiving and holding certain documents and other instruments delivered by the Company and the Master Servicer under
the Pooling Agreement, all upon the terms and conditions and subject to the limitations hereinafter set forth; 
 NOW,
THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants and agreements hereinafter set forth, the Trustee, the Company, the Master Servicer and the Custodian hereby agree as follows: 

ARTICLE I 

Definitions 

Capitalized terms used in this Agreement and not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned in the Original Pooling Agreement,
unless otherwise required by the context herein. 
 ARTICLE II 

Custody of Mortgage Documents 
 Section 2.1 Custodian to Act as Agent: Acceptance of Custodial Files. The Custodian, as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee for these purposes, acknowledges receipt of the Custodial Files
relating to the Mortgage Loans identified on the schedule attached hereto (the “Custodial Files”) and declares that it holds and will hold the Custodial Files as agent for the Trustee, in trust, for the use and benefit of all present and
future Certificateholders. 







 Section 2.2 Recordation of Assignments. If any Custodial File includes one or
more assignments of the related Mortgage Loans to the Trustee that have not been recorded, each such assignment shall be delivered by the Custodian to the Company for the purpose of recording it in the appropriate public office for real property
records, and the Company, at no expense to the Custodian, shall promptly cause to be recorded in the appropriate public office for real property records each such assignment and, upon receipt thereof from such public office, shall return each such
assignment to the Custodian. 
 Section 2.3 Review of Custodial Files. 

(a) On or prior to the Closing Date, the Custodian shall deliver to the Trustee an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as
Exhibit One evidencing receipt of a Custodial File for each Mortgage Loan listed on the Schedule attached hereto (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”). The parties hereto acknowledge that certain documents referred to in Subsection 2.01(b)(i) of
the Pooling Agreement may be missing on or prior to the Closing Date and such missing documents shall be listed as a Schedule to Exhibit One. 
 (b) Within [45] days after the Closing Date, the Custodian agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to review in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 of the Pooling Agreement each
Custodial File and to deliver to the Trustee an Interim Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit Two to the effect that all documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01 (b) of the Pooling Agreement have been
executed and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on Schedule A attached to such Interim Certification. For purposes of such review, the Custodian
shall compare the following information in each Custodial File to the corresponding information in the Mortgage Loan Schedule: (i) the loan number, (ii) the borrower name and (iii) the original principal balance. In the event that any
Mortgage Note or Assignment of Mortgage has been delivered to the Custodian by the Company in blank, the Custodian, upon the direction of the Company, shall cause each such Mortgage Note to be endorsed to the Trustee and each such Assignment of
Mortgage to be completed in the name of the Trustee prior to the date on which such Interim Certification is delivered to the Trustee. Within [45] days of receipt of the documents required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(c) of the
Pooling Agreement, the Custodian agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review each such document, and upon the written request of the Trustee to deliver to the Trustee and an updated Schedule A to the Interim Certification. The
Custodian shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have
actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face, or that the MIN is accurate. If in performing the review required by this Section 2.3 the Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a part of
a Custodial File to be missing or defective in respect of the items reviewed as described in this Section 2.3(b), the Custodian shall promptly so notify the Company, the Master Servicer and the Trustee. 

(c) Upon receipt of all documents required to be in the Custodial Files the Custodian shall deliver to the Trustee a Final Certification
in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit Three evidencing the completeness of the Custodial Files. 
 Upon receipt of written
request from the Trustee, the Company or the Master Servicer, the Custodian shall as soon as practicable supply the Trustee with a list of all of the documents relating to the Mortgage Loans required to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01
(b) of the Pooling Agreement not then contained in the Custodial Files. 

  
 E-2









 Section 2.4 Notification of Breaches of Representations and Warranties. If the
Custodian discovers, in the course of performing its custodial functions, a breach of a representation or warranty made by the Master Servicer or the Company as set forth in the Pooling Agreement with respect to a Mortgage Loan relating to a
Custodial File, the Custodian shall give prompt written notice to the Company, the Master Servicer and the Trustee. 

Section 2.5 Custodian to Cooperate: Release of Custodial Files. Upon the repurchase or substitution of any Mortgage Loan
pursuant to Article II of the Pooling Agreement or payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer shall
immediately notify the Custodian by delivering to the Custodian a Request for Release (in the form of Exhibit Four attached hereto or a mutually acceptable electronic form) and shall request delivery to it of the Custodial File. The Custodian
agrees, upon receipt of such Request for Release, promptly to release to the Master Servicer the related Custodial File. 
 Upon
receipt of a Request for Release from the Master Servicer, signed by a Servicing Officer, that (i) the Master Servicer or a Subservicer, as the case may be, has made a deposit into the Certificate Account in payment for the purchase of the
related Mortgage Loan in an amount equal to the Purchase Price for such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the Company has chosen to substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such Mortgage Loan, the Custodian shall release to the Master Servicer
the related Custodial File. 
 Upon written notification of a substitution, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian
and the Custodian agrees to accept the Mortgage Note and other documents constituting the Custodial File with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, upon receiving written notification from the Master Servicer of such substitution.

 From time to time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosures of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose,
collection under any Primary Insurance Policy or any Mortgage Pool Insurance Policy, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Custodian a Request for Release certifying as to the reason for such release. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Custodian
shall deliver the Custodial File or such document to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall cause each Custodial File or any document therein so released to be returned to the Custodian when the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer
exists, unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Custodial Account or (ii) the Custodial File or such document has been delivered to an attorney,
or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer
has delivered to the Custodian an updated Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Custodial File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.
Immediately upon receipt of any Custodial File returned to the Custodian by the Master Servicer, the Custodian shall deliver a signed acknowledgement to the Master Servicer, confirming receipt of such Custodial File. 

  
 E-3









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

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

The Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Custodian in writing if it shall no longer be a member of MERS, or if it otherwise shall no
longer be capable of registering and recording Mortgage Loans using MERS. In addition, the Master Servicer shall (i) promptly notify the Custodian in writing when a MERS Mortgage Loan is no longer registered with and recorded under MERS and
(ii) concurrently with any such deregistration of a MERS Mortgage Loan, prepare, execute and record an original assignment from MERS to the Trustee and deliver such assignment to the Custodian. 

Section 3.2 Indemnification. The Company hereby agrees to indemnify and hold the Custodian harmless from and against all
claims, liabilities, losses, actions, suits or proceedings at law or in equity, or any other expenses, fees or charges of any character or nature, which the Custodian may incur or with which the Custodian may be threatened by reason of its acting as
custodian under this Agreement, including indemnification of the Custodian against any and all expenses, including attorney’s fees if counsel for the Custodian has been approved by the Company, and the cost of defending any action, suit or
proceedings or resisting any claim. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is specifically understood and agreed that in the event any such claim, liability, loss, action, suit or proceeding or other expense, fee or charge shall have been caused by
reason of any negligent act, negligent failure to act or willful misconduct on the part of the Custodian, or which shall constitute a willful breach of its duties hereunder, the indemnification provisions of this Agreement shall not apply.


  
 E-4









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

Section 3.4 Master Servicer to Pay Custodian’s Fees and Expenses. The Master Servicer covenants and agrees to pay to the
Custodian from time to time, and the Custodian shall be entitled to, reasonable compensation for all services rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the powers and duties hereunder of the Custodian, and the Master Servicer will pay
or reimburse the Custodian upon its request for all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Custodian in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation and the expenses
and disbursements of its counsel and of all persons not regularly in its employ), except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its negligence or bad faith. 

Section 3.5 Custodian May Resign; Trustee May Remove Custodian. The Custodian may resign from the obligations and duties
hereby imposed upon it as such obligations and duties relate to its acting as Custodian of the Mortgage Loans. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Trustee shall either take custody of the Custodial Files itself and give prompt notice
thereof to the Company, the Master Servicer and the Custodian, or promptly appoint a successor Custodian by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Custodian and one copy to the successor
Custodian. If the Trustee shall not have taken custody of the Custodial Files and no successor Custodian shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning
Custodian may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Custodian. 
 The Trustee may
remove the Custodian at any time. In such event, the Trustee shall appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, a successor Custodian hereunder. Any successor Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to supervision
or examination by federal or state authority and shall be able to satisfy the other requirements contained in Section 3.7 and shall be unaffiliated with the Master Servicer or the Company. 

Any resignation or removal of the Custodian and appointment of a successor Custodian pursuant to any of the provisions of this
Section 3.5 shall become effective upon acceptance of appointment by the successor Custodian. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Company and the Master Servicer of the appointment of any successor Custodian. No successor Custodian
shall be appointed by the Trustee without the prior approval of the Company and the Master Servicer. 
 Section 3.6
Merger or Consolidation of Custodian. Any Person into which the Custodian may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Custodian shall be a
party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Custodian, shall be the successor of the Custodian hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the
contrary notwithstanding. 
 Section 3.7 Representations of the Custodian. The Custodian hereby represents that it
is a depository institution subject to supervision or examination by a federal or state authority, has a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000 and is qualified to do business in the jurisdictions in which it will hold any Custodial
File.

Commission under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act. Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its
staff, consensus among participants in the mortgage-backed securities markets, advice of counsel, or otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests made by the Company in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of
evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. The Custodian shall cooperate reasonably with the Company to deliver to the Company (including any of its assignees or designees), any and all disclosure, statements, reports, certifications, records and
any other information necessary in the reasonable, good faith determination of the Company to permit the Company to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB.

[            ] relating to the Certificates do not contain any untrue statement of a material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary in order to

aspects of its financial condition that could have a material adverse effect on the performance by it of its Custodian obligations under this Agreement or any other Securitization Transaction as to which it is the custodian; (ii) there are no
material legal or governmental proceedings pending (or known to be contemplated) against it; and (iii) there are no affiliations, relationships or transactions relating to the Custodian with respect to the Company or any sponsor, issuing

identified by the Company to the Custodian in writing as of the Closing Date (each, a “Transaction Party”). 

  
 E-6









 (c) If so requested by the Company on any date following the Closing Date, the Custodian
shall, within five Business Days following such request, confirm in writing the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in paragraph (a) of this Section or, if any such representation and warranty is not accurate as of the date
of such confirmation, provide reasonably adequate disclosure of the pertinent facts, in writing, to the requesting party. Any such request from the Company shall not be given more than once each calendar quarter, unless the Company shall have a
reasonable basis for a determination that any of the representations and warranties may not be accurate. 
 Section 4.3

the Custodian shall (a) notify the Company in writing of any material litigation or governmental proceedings pending against the Custodian that would be material to Certificateholders, and (b) provide to the Company a written description
of such proceedings. Any notices and descriptions required under this Section 4.3 shall be given no later than five Business Days prior to the Determination Date following the month in which the Custodian has knowledge of the occurrence of the
relevant event. As of the date the Company or Master Servicer files each Report on Form 10-D or Form 10-K with respect to the Certificates, the Custodian will be deemed to represent that any information previously provided under this
Section 4.3, if any, is materially correct and does not have any material omissions unless the Custodian has provided an update to such information. For purposes of this Section 4.3, the term “Determination Date” shall mean, with
respect to any Distribution Date, the second Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, and the term “Distribution Date” shall mean the 25th day of any month beginning in the month immediately following the month of the initial issuance
of the Certificates or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following such 25th day.

the Custodian’s assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding calendar year, as required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report shall be
addressed to the Company and signed by an authorized officer of the Custodian, and shall address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit Five hereto; and 

(b) deliver to the Company a report of a registered public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Company that attests to, and
reports on, the assessment of compliance made by the Custodian and delivered pursuant to the preceding paragraph. Such attestation shall be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange
Act. 
 Section 4.5 Indemnification; Remedies. 

(a) The Custodian shall indemnify the Company, each affiliate of the Company, the Master Servicer and each broker dealer acting as
underwriter, placement agent or initial purchaser of the Certificates or each Person who controls any of such parties (within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act and Section 20 of the Exchange Act); and the respective present
and former directors, officers, employees and agents of each of the foregoing, and shall hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and any
other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising out of or based upon: 

  
 E-7









 (i) (A) any untrue statement of a material fact contained or alleged to be contained in
the Custodian Disclosure and any information, report, certification, accountants’ attestation or other material provided under this Article IV by or on behalf of the Custodian (collectively, the “Custodian Information”), or
(B) the omission or alleged omission to state in the Custodian Information a material fact required to be stated in the Custodian Information or necessary in order to make the statements therein, in the light of the circumstances under which
they were made, not misleading; or 
 (ii) any failure by the Custodian to deliver any information, report, certification,
accountants’ attestation or other material when and as required under this Article IV. 
 (b) In the case of any failure of
performance described in clause (ii) of Section 4.5(a), the Custodian shall promptly reimburse the Company for all costs reasonably incurred by the Company in order to obtain the information, report, certification, accountants’ letter
or other material not delivered as required by the Custodian. 
 ARTICLE V 

Miscellaneous Provisions 
 Section 5.1 Notices. All notices, requests, consents and demands and other communications required under this Agreement or pursuant to any other instrument or document delivered hereunder
shall be in writing and, unless otherwise specifically provided, may be delivered personally, by telegram or telex, or by registered or certified mail, postage prepaid, return receipt requested, at the addresses specified on the signature page
hereof (unless changed by the particular party whose address is stated herein by similar notice in writing).

Amendments. No modification or amendment of or supplement to this Agreement shall be valid or effective unless the same is in writing and signed by all parties hereto, and neither the Company, the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall enter
into any amendment hereof except as permitted by the Pooling Agreement. The Trustee shall give prompt notice to the Custodian of any amendment or supplement to the Pooling Agreement and furnish the Custodian with written copies thereof. 

Section 5.3 GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED A CONTRACT MADE UNDER THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL
BE CONSTRUED AND ENFORCED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO THE CONFLICT OF LAW PRINCIPLES THEREOF, OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW. 

Section 5.4 Recordation of Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation in
all appropriate public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or
elsewhere, 

  
 E-8

aggregate of not less than 25% of the Trust), but only upon direction accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Master Servicer to the effect that the failure to effect such recordation is likely to materially and adversely
affect the interests of the Certificateholders. 
 For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as herein
provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

 Section 5.5 Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of
this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect
the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the holders thereof.

	 STATE OF
	  	)
		  	) ss.:
	 COUNTY OF
	  	)

 [NAME OF OFFICER], being first duly sworn, deposes and says: 

1. That he is [Title of Officer] of [Name of Owner] (record or beneficial owner of the Mortgage-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series
20[    ]-[ABC][    ], Class R-     (the “Owner”)), a [savings institution] [corporation] duly organized and existing under the laws of [the State of
                            ] [the United States], on behalf of which he makes this affidavit and agreement.

 2. That the Owner (i) is not and will not be a “disqualified organization” or an electing large partnership as
of [date of transfer] within the meaning of Section 860E(e)(5) and 775, respectively, of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or an electing large partnership under Section 775(a) of the Code, (ii) will
endeavor to remain other than a disqualified organization for so long as it retains its ownership interest in the Class R-     Certificates, and (iii) is acquiring the Class R-     Certificates for its
own account or for the account of another Owner from which it has received an affidavit and agreement in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. (For this purpose, a “disqualified organization” means an electing large
partnership under Section 775 of the Code, the United States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality all of the activities of which are subject to tax
and, except for the Federal Home Loan Mortgage Corporation, a majority of whose board of directors is not selected by any such governmental entity) or any foreign government, international organization or any agency or instrumentality of such
foreign government or organization, any rural electric or telephone cooperative, or any organization (other than certain farmers’ cooperatives) that is generally exempt from federal income tax unless such organization is subject to the tax on
unrelated business taxable income). 
 3. That the Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on transfers of
Class R-     Certificates to disqualified organizations or an electing large partnership under the Code, that applies to all transfers of Class R-     Certificates after March 31, 1988; (ii) that
such tax would be on the transferor (or, with respect to transfers to electing large partnerships, on each such partnership), or, if such transfer is through an agent (which person includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a disqualified
organization, on the agent; (iii) that the person (other than with respect to transfers to electing large partnerships) otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the tax if the transferee furnishes to such person an
affidavit that the transferee is not a disqualified organization and, at the time of transfer, such person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false; and (iv) that the Class R-     Certificates may be
“noneconomic residual interests” within the meaning of Treasury regulations promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such
residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer was to impede the assessment or collection of tax. 

  
 H-1-1









 4. That the Owner is aware of the tax imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding
Class R-     Certificates if either the pass-through entity is an electing large partnership under Section 775 of the Code or if at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a disqualified organization is
the record holder of an interest in such entity. (For this purpose, a “pass through entity” includes a regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain
cooperatives.) 
 5. That the Owner is aware that the Trustee will not register the transfer of any Class
R-     Certificates unless the transferee, or the transferee’s agent, delivers to it an affidavit and agreement, among other things, in substantially the same form as this affidavit and agreement. The Owner expressly agrees
that it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any of the representations contained in such affidavit and agreement are false. 
 6. That the Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face of the Class R -     Certificates and the provisions of Section 5.02(f) of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement under which the Class R-     Certificates were issued (in particular, clause (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) of Section 5.02(f) which authorize the Trustee to deliver payments to a person other than the Owner and negotiate a
mandatory sale by the Trustee in the event the Owner holds such Certificates in violation of Section 5.02(f)). The Owner expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such restrictions and provisions. 

7. That the Owner consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to
constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R-     Certificates will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by an Owner that is not a disqualified organization. 

8. The Owner’s Taxpayer Identification Number is
                            . 
 9. This affidavit and agreement relates only to the Class R-     Certificates held by the Owner and not to any other holder of the Class R-    Certificates. The
Owner understands that the liabilities described herein relate only to the Class R-     Certificates. 
 10.
That no purpose of the Owner relating to the transfer of any of the Class R-     Certificates by the Owner is or will be to impede the assessment or collection of any tax; in making this representation, the Owner warrants that
the Owner is familiar with (i) Treasury Regulation 1.860E-1(c) and recent amendments thereto, effective as of July 19, 2002, and (ii) the preamble describing the adoption of the amendments to such regulation, which is attached hereto
as Annex I. 
 11. That the Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will be unable to pay any United States taxes
owed by it so long as any of the Certificates remain outstanding. In this regard, the Owner hereby represents to and for the benefit of the person from whom it acquired the Class R-     Certificate that the Owner intends to pay
taxes associated with holding such Class R-     Certificate as they become due, fully understanding that it may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the Class R-     Certificate.


  
 H-1-2









 12. That the Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will become insolvent or
subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as any of the Class R-     Certificates remain outstanding. 

13. The Owner is either (i) a citizen or resident of the United States, (ii) a corporation, partnership or other entity treated
as a corporation or a partnership for U.S. federal income tax purposes and created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (other than a partnership that is not treated as a United
States person under any applicable Treasury regulations), (iii) an estate that is described in Section 7701(a)(30)(D) of the Code, or (iv) a trust that is described in Section 7701(a)(30)(E) of the Code. 

14. The Owner hereby agrees that it will not cause income from the Class R-     Certificates to be attributable to a
foreign permanent establishment or fixed base (within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty) of the Owner or another United States taxpayer. 
 15. The Owner hereby certifies, represents and warrants to, and covenants with the Company, the Trustee and the Master Servicer that the following statements in (a) or (b) are accurate:

 (a) The Owner is not an employee benefit or other plan subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), or Section 4975 of the Code (a “Plan”), or any other person (including an investment manager, a named fiduciary or a trustee of any Plan) acting, directly or
indirectly, on behalf of or purchasing any Certificate with “plan assets” of any Plan within the meaning of the Department of Labor (“DOL”) regulation at 29 C.F.R. §2510.3-101; or

 An agency may not conduct or sponsor, and a person is not
required to respond to, a collection of information unless it displays a valid control number assigned by the Office of Management and Budget. 
 The estimated total annual reporting burden is 470 hours, based on an estimated number of respondents of 470 and an estimated average annual burden hours per respondent of one hour. 

Books or records relating to a collection of information must be retained as long as their contents may become material in the
administration of any internal revenue law. Generally, tax returns and tax return information are confidential, as required by 26 U.S.C. 6103. 

Background 
 This document
contains final regulations regarding the proposed amendments to 26 CFR part 1 under section 860E of the Internal Revenue Code (Code). The regulations provide the circumstances under which a transferor of a noneconomic REMIC residual interest meeting
the investigation and representation requirements may avail itself of the safe harbor by satisfying either the formula test or the asset test. 
 Final regulations governing REMICs, issued in 1992, contain rules governing the transfer of noneconomic REMIC residual interests. In general, a transfer of a noneconomic residual interest is disregarded
for all tax purposes if a significant purpose of the transfer is to enable the transferor to impede the assessment or collection of tax. A purpose to impede the assessment or collection of tax (a wrongful purpose) exists if the transferor, at the
time of the transfer, either knew or should have known that the transferee would be unwilling or unable to pay taxes due on its share of the REMIC’s taxable income. Under a safe harbor, the transferor of a REMIC noneconomic residual interest is
presumed not to have a wrongful purpose if two requirements are satisfied: (1) the transferor conducts a reasonable investigation of the transferee’s financial condition (the investigation requirement); and (2) the transferor secures
a representation from the transferee to the effect that the transferee understands the tax obligations associated with holding a residual interest and intends to pay those taxes (the representation requirement). 

  
 H-1-6









 The IRS and Treasury have been concerned that some transferors of noneconomic residual
interests claim they satisfy the safe harbor even in situations where the economics of the transfer clearly indicate the transferee is unwilling or unable to pay the tax associated with holding the interest. For this reason, on February 7,
2000, the IRS published in the Federal Register (65 FR 5807) a notice of proposed rulemaking (REG-100276-97; REG-122450-98) designed to clarify the safe harbor by adding the “formula test,” an economic test. The proposed regulation
provides that the safe harbor is unavailable unless the present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the residual interest does not exceed the sum of: (1) The present value of any consideration given to the
transferee to acquire the interest; (2) the present value of the expected future distributions on the interest; and (3) the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding the interest as the REMIC generates losses.

 The notice of proposed rulemaking also contained rules for FASITs. Section 1.860H-6(g) of the proposed regulations
provides requirements for transfers of FASIT ownership interests and adopts a safe harbor by reference to the safe harbor provisions of the REMIC regulations. In January 2001, the IRS published Rev. Proc. 2001-12 (2001-3 I.R.B. 335) to set forth an
alternative safe harbor that taxpayers could use while the IRS and the Treasury considered comments on the proposed regulations. Under the alternative safe harbor, if a transferor meets the investigation requirement and the representation
requirement but the transfer fails to meet the formula test, the transferor may invoke the safe harbor if the transferee meets a two-prong test (the asset test). A transferee generally meets the first prong of this test if, at the time of the
transfer, and in each of the two years preceding the year of transfer, the transferee’s gross assets exceed $100 million and its net assets exceed $10 million. A transferee generally meets the second prong of this test if it is a domestic,
taxable corporation and agrees in writing not to transfer the interest to any person other than another domestic, taxable corporation that also satisfies the requirements of the asset test. A transferor cannot rely on the asset test if the
transferor knows, or has reason to know, that the transferee will not comply with its written agreement to limit the restrictions on subsequent transfers of the residual interest. 

Rev. Proc. 2001-12 provides that the asset test fails to be satisfied in the case of a transfer or assignment of a noneconomic residual
interest to a foreign branch of an otherwise eligible transferee. If such a transfer or assignment were permitted, a corporate taxpayer might seek to claim that the provisions of an applicable income tax treaty would resource excess inclusion income
as foreign source income, and that, as a consequence, any U.S. tax liability attributable to the excess inclusion income could be offset by foreign tax credits. Such a claim would impede the assessment or collection of U.S. tax on excess inclusion
income, contrary to the congressional purpose of assuring that such income will be taxable in all events. See, e.g., sections 860E(a)(1), (b), (e) and 860G(b) of the Code. 

The Treasury and the IRS have learned that certain taxpayers transferring noneconomic residual interests to foreign branches have
attempted to rely on the formula test to obtain safe harbor treatment in an effort to impede the assessment or collection of U.S. tax on excess inclusion income. Accordingly, the final regulations provide that if a noneconomic residual interest is
transferred to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base of a U.S. taxpayer, the transfer is not eligible for safe harbor treatment under either the asset test or the formula test. The final regulations also require a transferee to represent
that it will not cause income from the noneconomic residual interest to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base. 

  
 H-1-7









 Section 1.860E-1(c)(8) provides computational rules that a taxpayer may use to qualify
for safe harbor status under the formula test. Section 1.860E-1(c)(8)(i) provides that the transferee is presumed to pay tax at a rate equal to the highest rate of tax specified in section 11(b). Some commentators were concerned that this
presumed rate of taxation was too high because it does not take into consideration taxpayers subject to the alternative minimum tax rate. In light of the comments received, this provision has been amended in the final regulations to allow certain
transferees that compute their taxable income using the alternative minimum tax rate to use the alternative minimum tax rate applicable to corporations. 
 Additionally, Sec. 1.860E-1(c)(8)(iii) provides that the present values in the formula test are to be computed using a discount rate equal to the applicable Federal short-term rate prescribed by section
1274(d). This is a change from the proposed regulation and Rev. Proc. 2001-12. In those publications the provision stated that ``present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the applicable Federal rate prescribed in section 1274(d)
compounded semiannually” and that “[a] lower discount rate may be used if the transferee can demonstrate that it regularly borrows, in the course of its trade or business, substantial funds at such lower rate from an unrelated third
party.” The IRS and the Treasury Department have learned that, based on this provision, certain taxpayers have been attempting to use unrealistically low or zero interest rates to satisfy the formula test, frustrating the intent of the test.
Furthermore, the Treasury Department and the IRS believe that a rule allowing for a rate other than a rate based on an objective index would add unnecessary complexity to the safe harbor. As a result, the rule in the proposed regulations that
permits a transferee to use a lower discount rate, if the transferee can demonstrate that it regularly borrows substantial funds at such lower rate, is not included in the final regulations; and the Federal short-term rate has been substituted for
the applicable Federal rate. To simplify taxpayers’ computations, the final regulations allow use of any of the published short-term rates, provided that the present values are computed with a corresponding period of compounding. With the
exception of the provisions relating to transfers to foreign branches, these changes generally have the proposed applicability date of February 4, 2000, but taxpayers may choose to apply the interest rate formula set forth in the proposed
regulation and Rev. Proc. 2001-12 for transfers occurring before August 19, 2002. 
 It is anticipated that when final
regulations are adopted with respect to FASITs, Sec. 1.860H-6(g) of the proposed regulations will be adopted in substantially its present form, with the result that the final regulations contained in this document will also govern transfers of FASIT
ownership interests with substantially the same applicability date as is contained in this document. 
 Effect on Other Documents 

Rev. Proc. 2001-12 (2001-3 I.R.B. 335) is obsolete for transfers of noneconomic residual interests in REMICs occurring on or after
August 19, 2002. 
 Special Analyses 
 It is hereby certified that these regulations will not have a significant economic impact on a substantial number of small entities. This certification is based on the fact that it is unlikely that a
substantial number of small entities will hold REMIC residual interests. Therefore, a Regulatory Flexibility Analysis under the Regulatory Flexibility Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 6) is not required. It has been determined that this Treasury decision is
not a significant regulatory action as defined in Executive Order 12866. Therefore, a regulatory assessment is not required. It also has been determined that sections 553(b) and 553(d) of the Administrative Procedure Act (5 U.S.C. chapter 5) do not
apply to these regulations.
