Schedule 2              Prepayment Charge Schedule



 









 


This Pooling and Servicing Agreement, is dated and effective as of April 1, 2005 among MORTGAGE ASSET SECURITIZATION TRANSACTIONS, INC. as Depositor, OCWEN FEDERAL BANK FSB as Servicer and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION as Trustee.


PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:


The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates to be issued hereunder in multiple classes, which in the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in each REMIC (as defined herein) created hereunder. The Trust Fund will consist of a segregated pool of assets comprised of the Mortgage Loans and certain other related assets subject to this Agreement.






 









 


REMIC I


As provided herein, the Trustee will elect to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other related assets (other than the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, the Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amount and the Cap Contracts) subject to this Agreement as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as “REMIC I.”  The Class R-I Interest will be the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC I for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined herein).  The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the REMIC I Remittance Rate, the initial Uncertificated Balance and, for purposes of satisfying Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” for each of the REMIC I Regular Interests (as defined herein).  None of the
REMIC I Regular Interests will be certificated.

  CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS;


ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES



	
            SECTION 2.01.
 	
            Conveyance of the Mortgage Loans.
 



The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Trustee without recourse, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, all the right, title and interest of the Depositor, including any security interest therein for the benefit of the Depositor, in and to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, the rights of the Depositor under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and all other assets included or to be included in REMIC I.  Such assignment includes all interest and principal received by the Depositor or the Servicer on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than payments of principal and interest due on such Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date). The Depositor herewith delivers to the Trustee an executed original Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.


In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor does hereby deliver to, and deposit with, the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so transferred and assigned (a “Mortgage File”):


(i)         the original Mortgage Note, endorsed in blank or in the following form: “Pay to the order of U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee under the applicable agreement, without recourse,” with all prior and intervening endorsements showing a complete chain of endorsement from the originator to the Person so endorsing to the Trustee;


(ii)         the original Mortgage, noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loan and language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, with evidence of recording thereon, and the original recorded power of attorney, if the Mortgage was executed pursuant to a power of attorney, with evidence of recording thereon;


(iii)        unless the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System, an original Assignment in blank;


(iv)        the original recorded Assignment or Assignments showing a complete chain of assignment from the originator to the Person assigning the Mortgage to the Trustee (or to MERS, if the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System and noting the presence of the MIN) as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (iii);


(v)        the original or copies of each assumption, modification, written assurance or substitution agreement, if any; and


 









 


(vi)        the original lender’s title insurance policy, together with all endorsements or riders that were issued with or subsequent to the issuance of such policy, insuring the priority of the Mortgage as a first or second lien on the Mortgaged Property represented therein as a fee interest vested in the Mortgagor, or in the event such original title policy is unavailable, a written commitment or uniform binder or preliminary report of title issued by the title insurance or escrow company.


With respect to a maximum of approximately 1.0% of the Mortgage Loans, by outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, if any original Mortgage Note referred to in Section 2.01(i) above cannot be located, the obligations of the Depositor to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) of a photocopy of such Mortgage Note, if available, with a lost note affidavit substantially in the form of Exhibit I attached hereto.  If any of the original Mortgage Notes for which a lost note affidavit was delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) is subsequently located, such original Mortgage Note shall be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) within three Business Days.


Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which MERS is identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage as the mortgagee of record, the Trustee shall promptly (within sixty Business Days following the later of the Closing Date and the date of receipt by the Trustee or the Custodian of the recording information for a Mortgage, but in no event later than ninety days following the Closing Date) enforce the obligations of the Originator pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at no expense to the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Custodian, the Servicer or the Depositor, in the appropriate public office for real property records, each Assignment referred to in Sections 2.01(iii) and (iv) above and in connection therewith, the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the Originator pursuant to
the terms of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to execute each original Assignment in the following form: “U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee under the applicable agreement.”  In the event that any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the Originator pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to promptly prepare or cause to be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded.


In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS® System, the Depositor further agrees that it will cause, 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 Servicer to, and the 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.


If any of the documents referred to in Sections 2.01(ii), (iii) or (iv) has, as of the Closing Date, been submitted for recording but either (x) has not been returned from the applicable public recording office or (y) has been lost or such public recording office has retained the original of such document, the obligations of the Depositor to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon (1) delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) of a copy of each such document certified by the Originator in the case of (x) above or the applicable public recording office in the case of (y) above to be a true and complete copy of the original that was submitted for recording and (2) if such copy is certified by the Originator, delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) promptly upon receipt thereof of either the original or a copy of such
document certified by the applicable public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original.  Pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, notice shall be provided to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies by the Originator if delivery pursuant to clause (2) above will be made more than 180 days after the Closing Date.


If the original lender’s title insurance policy was not delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(vi) above, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), promptly after receipt thereof, the original lender’s title insurance policy with a copy thereof to the Servicer.  The Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) promptly upon receipt thereof any other original documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents evidencing an assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan with a copy thereof to the Servicer.


The Depositor shall deliver or cause the Originator or the Trustee to deliver to the Servicer copies of all trailing documents required to be included in the servicing file at the same time the originals or certified copies thereof are delivered to the Trustee, such documents including but not limited to the mortgagee policy of title insurance and any mortgage loan documents upon return from the recording office.  The Servicer shall not be responsible for any costs incurring in obtaining such documents and the Depositor shall cause the Servicer to be reimbursed for any such costs it may incur in connection with performing its obligations under this Agreement.  Subject to Section 6.03(a), the Servicer shall have no liability as a result of an inability to service any Mortgage Loan due to its failure to receive any documents missing from the Mortgage File or servicing file.


All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) are and shall be held by or on behalf of the Originator, the Seller, the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, in trust for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. In the event that any such original document is required pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.01 to be a part of a Mortgage File, such document shall be delivered promptly to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee).  Any such original document delivered to or held by the Depositor that is not required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, shall be delivered promptly to the Servicer.


 









 


The Depositor and the Trustee hereto understand and agree that it is not intended that any Mortgage Loan be included in the Trust that is a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined by the Homeownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 or any other applicable predatory or abusive lending laws.


The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to, and the Trustee hereby agrees to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Cap Contracts on the Closing Date and thereafter on behalf of the Holders of the Group I Certificates, the Group II Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates. The Depositor, the Servicer and the Holders of the Group I Certificates, the Group II Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, by their acceptance of such Certificates, acknowledge and agree that the Trustee shall execute, deliver and perform its obligations under each of the Cap Contracts and shall do so solely in its capacity as Trustee of the Trust Fund and not in its individual capacity.



	
            SECTION 2.02.
 	
            Acceptance of REMIC I by Trustee.
 



The Trustee acknowledges receipt (or receipt by the Custodian as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee), subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph below, of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) above and all other assets included in the definition of “REMIC I” under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (v) (to the extent of amounts deposited into the Distribution Account) and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “REMIC I” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.


The Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) agrees to execute and deliver to the Depositor and the NIMS Insurer on or prior to the Closing Date an acknowledgment of receipt of the original Mortgage Note (with any exceptions noted), substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C-3 hereto.


The Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the NIMS Insurer, to review each Mortgage File and, within 45 days of the Closing Date, to certify in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it or the Custodian and appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on its or the Custodian’s examination and only as
to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (1), (3), (12), (15) and (18) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File.  It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) is under no duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine whether they are genuine, 


 









enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or whether they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face or (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clause (v) of Section 2.01.


Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Trustee shall deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C-2 evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon, and the Servicer shall forward a copy thereof to any Sub-Servicer.


If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in any material respect, at the conclusion of its review the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall so notify the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer.  In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Originator or the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give
prompt written notice to the other parties.


The Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall, at the written request and expense of any Certificateholder, provide a written report to such Certificateholder of all Mortgage Files released to the Servicer for servicing purposes.


The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders and that such property not be part of the Depositor’s estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any insolvency by the Depositor.  In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be, or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, and that this Agreement shall
constitute a security agreement under applicable law.



	
            SECTION 2.03.
 	
            Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the Originator or the Seller.
 



(a)        Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or of the breach by the Originator or the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (including any representation, warranty or covenant regarding the Prepayment Charge Schedule) in respect of any Mortgage Loan that materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee shall promptly 


 









notify the Originator, the NIMS Insurer, the Seller and the Servicer of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, was notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC I at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, was notified (subject to Section 2.03(c)) of such missing document, defect or breach, if and to the
extent that the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, is obligated to do so under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.  The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be remitted to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account and the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, the related Mortgage File and the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.  In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, is not a member of MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is registered on the
MERS® System, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, 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 the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations.   Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian shall have any further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File.  In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, if so provided in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from REMIC I (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(b); provided, however, the Originator
or the Seller, as applicable, may not substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for any Deleted Mortgage Loan that violates any predatory or abusive lending law.  It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, to cure or to repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee and the Certificateholders.


(b)        Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be effected prior to the date which is two years after the Startup Day for REMIC I.


As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, delivering to the Trustee (or the Custodian 


 









on behalf of the Trustee), for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment in blank or to the Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01, together with an Officers’ Certificate providing that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Adjustment Amount (as described below), if any, in connection with such substitution.  The Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall acknowledge receipt for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within ten Business Days thereafter, review such documents as specified in Section 2.02 and deliver to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a certification substantially in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.  Within one year of the date of substitution, the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall deliver to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit C-2 hereto with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.  Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of REMIC I and will be retained by the Originator or the Seller, as applicable.  For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the Monthly Payment due on such Deleted Mortgage Loan on or before the Due Date in the month of substitution, and the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan.  The Depositor
shall give or cause to be given written notice to the Certificateholders and the NIMS Insurer that such substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee, the Custodian, the Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.  Upon such substitution, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, all applicable representations and warranties thereof included in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.


For any month in which the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Servicer will determine the amount (the “Substitution Adjustment Amount”), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate of, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Stated Principal Balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one month’s interest on such Stated Principal Balance at the applicable Net Mortgage Rate, plus all outstanding Advances and Servicing Advances (including Nonrecoverable Advances and Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances) related thereto.  On the date of such substitution, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection
Account an amount equal to the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, and the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and written notice by the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, the related Mortgage File or Files and the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without 


 









recourse, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.


In addition, the Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on any Trust REMIC, 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 Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.


(c)        Upon discovery by the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Originator, the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties hereto and the Trustee shall give written notice to the Originator and the Seller. In connection therewith, the Originator, the Seller or the Depositor shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(b), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Such repurchase or substitution shall be made by (i) the Originator
or the Seller, as the case may be, if the affected Mortgage Loan’s status as a non-qualified mortgage is or results from a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Originator or the Seller, as the case may be, under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, or (ii) the Depositor, if the affected Mortgage Loan’s status as a non-qualified mortgage is a breach of no representation or warranty.  Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a).  The Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall reconvey to the Depositor, the Originator or the Seller, as the case may be, the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.

Supplement made by the Servicer in agreements and Officers’ Certificates delivered by the Servicer on the Closing Date in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement shall be interpreted such that the information in the Prospectus Supplement is deemed to correct and/or supersede as of the Closing Date, within the meaning of this parenthetical, any information, statement or report delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee prior to the Closing Date that is inconsistent with the information in the Prospectus Supplement or that was omitted from such information, statement or report delivered prior to the Closing Date);

It is understood and agreed that the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Section 2.05 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee or the Custodian and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificateholders.

representation or covenant of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.05(x) above which materially and adversely affects the interests of 


 









the Holders of the Class P Certificates in any Prepayment Charge, the Servicer must pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates, by depositing such amount into the Collection Account.

ARTICLE III


 


ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING 


OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS



	
            SECTION 3.01.
 	
            Servicer to Act as Servicer.
 



The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trust Fund and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (as determined by the Servicer in its reasonable judgment) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the respective Mortgage Loans and, to the extent consistent with such terms, in the same manner in which it services and administers similar mortgage loans for its own portfolio, giving due consideration to customary and usual standards of practice of mortgage lenders and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans but without regard to: 


(i)         any relationship that the Servicer, any Sub-Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer may have with the related Mortgagor;


(ii)         the ownership or non-ownership of any Certificate by the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer;



	
            (iii)
 	
            the Servicer’s obligation to make Advances or Servicing Advances; or
 



(iv)        the Servicer’s or any Sub-Servicer’s right to receive compensation for its services hereunder or with respect to any particular transaction.


To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer (a) shall seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes and (b) shall waive (or permit a Sub-Servicer to waive) a Prepayment Charge only under the following circumstances: (i) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans and such waiver relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the collection of such Prepayment Charge would be in violation of applicable laws, (iii) the amount of the Prepayment Charge set forth on the Prepayment Charge Schedule is not consistent with the related Mortgage Note or is otherwise unenforceable or (iv) the collection of such
Prepayment Charge would be considered “predatory” pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable federal, state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and having jurisdiction over such matters. If a Prepayment Charge is waived as permitted by meeting the standard described in clauses (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, then the Trustee shall, enforce the obligation of the Originator to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates.  Subject only to the above-described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Sub-Servicer is 


 









hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment in accordance with the servicing standards set forth above, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, and upon notice to the Trustee, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties and to institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such properties, on behalf of the Trustee and Certificateholders. The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with applicable state and federal law and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be provided to them
thereby.  The Servicer shall also comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any standard hazard insurance policy.  Subject to Section 3.17, within 15 days of the Closing Date, the Trustee shall execute, at the written request of the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer and any Sub-Servicer any special or limited powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder and the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer or any Sub-Servicers under such powers of attorney.


The 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 Sub-Servicer, when the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, 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 reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence or as a result of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue
operations in connection with the MERS® System, shall be reimbursable to the Servicer by withdrawal from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11.


Subject to Section 3.09, in accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be Servicing Advances reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09, and further as provided in Section 3.11. Any cost incurred by the Servicer or by Sub-Servicers in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on a Mortgaged Property shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.


Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan (except as provided in Section 4.03) and the Servicer shall not (i) permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Rate, reduce or increase the Stated Principal Balance (except for reductions resulting from actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such 


 









Mortgage Loan (unless, as provided in Section 3.07, the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) or (ii) permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (A) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (B) cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions after the startup date” under the REMIC Provisions.


Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and notwithstanding its ability to do so pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer shall not be required to enforce any provision in any Mortgage Note the enforcement of which would violate federal, state or local laws or ordinances designed to discourage predatory lending practices.


The Servicer may delegate its responsibilities under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such delegation shall release the Servicer from the responsibilities or liabilities arising under this Agreement.



	
            SECTION 3.02.
 	
            Sub-Servicing Agreements Between Servicer and Sub-Servicers.
 



(a)        The Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that (i)  such sub-servicing arrangement and the terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement must provide for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans in a manner consistent with the servicing arrangement contemplated hereunder and (ii) the NIMS Insurer shall have consented to such Sub-Servicing Agreement.  The Trustee is hereby authorized to acknowledge, at the request of the Servicer, any Sub-Servicing Agreement that meets the requirements applicable to Sub-Servicing Agreements set forth in this Agreement and that is otherwise permitted under this Agreement.


Each Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states where the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Sub-Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and (ii) a Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae approved mortgage servicer.  Each Sub-Servicing Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 and provide for servicing of the Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Agreement.  The Servicer will examine each Sub-Servicing Agreement and will be familiar with the terms thereof.  The terms of any Sub-Servicing Agreement will not be inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement.  The Servicer and the Sub-Servicers may enter into and make amendments to the Sub-Servicing
Agreements or enter into different forms of Sub-Servicing Agreements; provided, however, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights; provided, further, that the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights shall not be required (i) to cure any ambiguity or defect in a Sub-Servicing 


 









Agreement, (ii) to correct, modify or supplement any provisions of a Sub-Servicing Agreement, or (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under a Sub-Servicing Agreement, which, in each case, shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.  Any variation without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights from the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 relating to insurance or priority requirements of Sub-Servicing Accounts, or credits and charges to the Sub-Servicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the Sub-Servicers to the Servicer, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and therefore prohibited.  The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the
Servicer’s execution and delivery of such instruments.


(b)        As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, including, without limitation, any obligation of a Sub-Servicer to make advances in respect of delinquent payments as required by a Sub-Servicing Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements, and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The 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 Loans, or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.  



	
            SECTION 3.03.
 	
            Successor Sub-Servicers.
 



The Servicer, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, shall be entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement and the rights and obligations of any Sub-Servicer pursuant to any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Sub-Servicing Agreement.  In the event of termination of any Sub-Servicer, all servicing obligations of such Sub-Servicer shall be assumed simultaneously by the Servicer without any act or deed on the part of such Sub-Servicer or the Servicer, and the Servicer either shall service directly the related Mortgage Loans or shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a successor Sub-Servicer which qualifies under Section 3.02.


Any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall include the provision that such agreement may be immediately terminated by the Trustee (if the Trustee is acting as Servicer) without fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the Servicer (or the Trustee, if it is then acting as Servicer) shall, for any reason, no longer be the Servicer (including termination due to a Servicer Event of Default).



	
            SECTION 3.04.
 	
            Liability of the Servicer.
 



Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement or the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Sub-Servicer or 


 









reference to actions taken through a Sub-Servicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee and the 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 Sub-Servicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Sub-Servicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.  The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub-Servicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such Sub-Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.



	
            SECTION 3.05.
 	
            No Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicers and the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or Certificateholders.
 



Any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Sub-Servicer in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone, and the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Sub-Servicer except as set forth in Section 3.06.  The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Sub-Servicer, irrespective of whether the Servicer’s compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.



	
            SECTION 3.06.
 	
            Assumption or Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements by Trustee.
 



In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under each Sub-Servicing Agreement that the Servicer may have entered into, unless the Trustee elects to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with its terms as provided in Section 3.03. Upon such assumption, the Trustee, its designee or the successor Servicer for the Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 shall be deemed, subject to Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the Servicer as a party to each Sub-Servicing Agreement to the same extent as if each Sub-Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that (i) the Servicer shall not thereby be
relieved of any liability or obligations under any Sub-Servicing Agreement that arose before it ceased to be the Servicer and (ii) neither of the Trustee nor, its designee or any successor Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed any liability or obligation of the Servicer that arose before it ceased to be the Servicer.


The Servicer at its expense shall, upon request of the Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by or on behalf of it, and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing Agreements to the assuming party. 


 









 



	
            SECTION 3.07.
 	
            Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.
 



The Servicer shall diligently 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 applicable insurance policies provided to the Servicer, follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account.  Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any penalty interest, (ii) waive any provisions of any Mortgage Loan requiring the related Mortgagor to submit to mandatory arbitration with respect to disputes arising thereunder or (iii) extend the due dates for the Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided, however, that any extension
pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except as provided below; provided further that the NIMS Insurer’s prior written consent shall be required for any modification, waiver or amendment if the aggregate number of outstanding Mortgage Loans which have been modified, waived or amended exceeds 5% of the number of Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.  In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (iii) above, the Servicer shall make timely Advances on such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.03 and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Servicer, consistent with the standards set forth in Section 3.01, may
also waive, modify or vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including modifications that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of principal or interest or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan), accept payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated Principal Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan (such payment, a “Short Pay-off”), or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant indulgence to any Mortgagor without the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer.



	
            SECTION 3.08.
 	
            Sub-Servicing Accounts.
 



In those cases where a Sub-Servicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to a Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Sub-Servicer will be required to establish and maintain one or more accounts (collectively, the “Sub-Servicing Account”).  The Sub-Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall comply with all requirements of this Agreement relating to the Collection Account.  The Sub-Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Sub-Servicer’s receipt thereof, all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by the Sub-Servicer less its servicing compensation to the extent permitted by the Sub-Servicing Agreement, and shall thereafter deposit such amounts in the Sub-Servicing
Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the receipt of such amounts. The Sub-Servicer shall thereafter deposit such proceeds in the Collection Account or remit such proceeds to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than two Business Days after the deposit of such amounts in the 


 









Sub-Servicing Account.  For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on the Mortgage Loans when the Sub-Servicer receives such payments.



	
            SECTION 3.09.
 	
            Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts.
 



The Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all collections from the Mortgagors (or related advances from Sub-Servicers) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums and comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors (“Escrow Payments”) shall be deposited and retained. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts.  The Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans and shall thereafter deposit such Escrow Payments in the Servicing Accounts, in no
event more than two Business Days after the receipt of such Escrow Payments, all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from a Servicing Account may be made only to (i) effect payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items in a manner and at a time that assures that the lien priority of the Mortgage is not jeopardized (or, with respect to the payment of taxes, in a manner and at a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien); (ii) reimburse the Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer to the extent provided in the related Sub-Servicing Agreement) out of related collections for any advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 3.14 (with respect to hazard insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any
sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account; or (v) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of the Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement in accordance with Article IX.  In the event the Servicer shall deposit in a Servicing Account any amount not required to be deposited therein or any amount previously deposited therein is unpaid by the related Mortgagor’s banking institution, it may at any time withdraw such amount from such Servicing Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer or Sub-Servicers shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in the Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Servicing Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from its or their own
funds, without any reimbursement therefor. The Servicer may pay to itself any excess interest on funds in the Servicing Accounts, to the extent such action is in conformity with the servicing standard set forth in Section 3.01, is permitted by law and such amounts are not required to be paid to Mortgagors or used for any of the other purposes set forth above.



	
            SECTION 3.10.
 	
            Collection Account and Distribution Account.
 



(a)        On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the “Collection Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.  On 


 









behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the clearing account in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the Collection Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, as and when received or as otherwise required hereunder, the following payments and collections received or made by it subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal or interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date), or payments (other than Principal Prepayments) received by it on or prior to the Cut-off Date but allocable to a Due Period subsequent thereto:


(i)         all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments (but not Prepayment Charges), on the Mortgage Loans;


(ii)         all payments on account of interest (net of the related Servicing Fee) on each Mortgage Loan;


(iii)        all Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and condemnation proceeds (other than proceeds collected in respect of any particular REO Property and amounts paid in connection with a purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01);


(iv)        any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12 in connection with any losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection Account;


(v)        any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant to the second paragraph of Section 3.14(a) in respect of any blanket policy deductibles;


(vi)        all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or purchased in accordance with Section 2.03, Section 3.16(c) or Section 9.01;


(vii)       all amounts required to be deposited in connection with Substitution Adjustments pursuant to Section 2.03; and


(viii)      all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer in connection with the Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans and any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts.


The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of Servicing Fees, late payment charges, Prepayment Interest Excess, assumption fees, insufficient funds charges and ancillary income (other than Prepayment Charges) need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account and may be retained by the Servicer as additional compensation. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.


 









 


(b)        On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall establish and maintain one or more  accounts (such account or accounts, the “Distribution Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee in immediately available funds for deposit in the Distribution Account by 3:00 p.m. New York time (i) on the Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of Available Funds (calculated without regard to the references in clause (ii) of the definition thereof to amounts that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account) for the related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account and the amount of all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer in connection with the Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans and any Servicer Prepayment
Charge Payment Amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account and the amount of any funds reimbursable to an Advancing Person pursuant to Section 3.26 (unless such amounts are to be remitted in another manner as specified in the documentation establishing the related Advance Facility) and (ii) on each Business Day as of the commencement of which the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 following any withdrawals pursuant to the next succeeding sentence, the amount of such excess, but only if the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account.”  If the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 as of the commencement of business on any Business Day and the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account,” the Servicer shall, by 3:00 p.m. New York time on such Business Day,
withdraw from the Collection Account any and all amounts payable or reimbursable to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Originator, the Seller or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11 and shall pay such amounts to the Persons entitled thereto.


(c)        Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.12.  The Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change thereof.  The Trustee shall give notice to the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor of the location of the Distribution Account when established and prior to any change thereof.


(d)        Funds held in the Collection Account at any time may be delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee for deposit in an account (which may be the Distribution Account and must satisfy the standards for the Distribution Account as set forth in the definition thereof) and for all purposes of this Agreement shall be deemed to be a part of the Collection Account; provided, however, that the Trustee shall have the sole authority to withdraw any funds held pursuant to this subsection (d).  In the event the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time request that the Trustee withdraw such amount from the Distribution Account and remit to it any such amount, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.  In addition, the Servicer shall deliver
to the Trustee from time to time for deposit, and the Trustee shall so deposit, in the Distribution Account:



	
            (i)
 	
            any Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.03;
 



(ii)         any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.23(d) or (f) in connection with any REO Property; 


 









 


(iii)        any amounts to be paid in connection with a purchase of Mortgage Loans and REO Properties pursuant to Section 9.01; and


(iv)        any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.24 in connection with any Prepayment Interest Shortfall; 


(e)        The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12(b) in connection with losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection Account.  The Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12(b) in connection with losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Distribution Account.



	
            SECTION 3.11.
 	
            Withdrawals from the Collection Account and Distribution Account.
 



(a)        The Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account for any of the following purposes or as described in Section 4.03:


(i)         to remit to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account the amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section 3.10(b) or permitted to be so remitted pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.10(d);


(ii)         subject to Section 3.16(d), to reimburse the Servicer for unreimbursed Advances, but only to the extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net of the related Servicing Fees) on Mortgage Loans or REO Properties with respect to which such Advances were made in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03;


(iii)        subject to Section 3.16(d), to pay the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer (a) any unpaid Servicing Fees, (b) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Late Collections, received with respect to such Mortgage Loan or REO Property and (c) any Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances with respect to the final liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent that Late Collections, received with respect to such Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for Servicing Advances;


(iv)        to pay to the Servicer as servicing compensation (in addition to the Servicing Fee) on the Servicer Remittance Date any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Collection Account; 


(v)        to pay to the Servicer, the Depositor, the Originator or the Seller, as the case may be, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has previously been purchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 or Section 3.16(c) all amounts received thereon subsequent to the date of purchase or substitution, as the case may be; 


 









 


(vi)        to reimburse the Servicer for any Advance or Servicing Advance previously made which the Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03; 


(vii)       to reimburse the Servicer or the Depositor for expenses incurred by or reimbursable to the Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.03; 


(viii)      to reimburse the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for expenses reasonably incurred in connection with any breach or defect giving rise to the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 of this Agreement, including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of the purchase obligation; 


(ix)        to pay, or to reimburse the Servicer for Servicing Advances in respect of, expenses incurred in connection with any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 3.16(b); 



	
            (x)
 	
            to withdraw amounts deposited therein in error;
 
	
            (xi)
 	
            to pay itself any Prepayment Interest Excess (to the extent not otherwise    retained); 
 	
             

	
            (xii)
 	
            to  withdraw amounts deposited therein in error; and
 
	
            (xiii)
 	
            to clear and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to Section 9.01.
 
				



The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan-by-Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of it, pursuant to subclauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) above.  The Servicer shall provide written notification to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer on or prior to the next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date, upon making any withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclauses (iii)(c) and (vi) above; provided that an Officer’s Certificate in the form described under Section 4.03(d) shall suffice for such written notification to the Trustee respect of clause (vi) hereof.


(b)        The Trustee shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Distribution Account, for any of the following purposes, without priority:


(i)         to make distributions to Certificateholders in accordance with Section 4.01;


(ii)         to pay itself the Trustee Fee and any Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses pursuant to Section 8.05;



	
            (iii)
 	
            to pay the Credit Risk Manager the Credit Risk Manager;
 



(iv)        to pay to itself on each Distribution Date any interest or investment income earned on funds deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.12(b);


 









 



	
            (v)
 	
            to reimburse itself pursuant to Section 7.02;
 
	
            (vi)
 	
            to pay any amounts in respect of taxes pursuant to Section 10.01(g)(iii);
 



(vii)       to pay to an Advancing Person reimbursements for Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 3.26; and



	
            (viii)
 	
            to clear and terminate the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 9.01.
 



The foregoing requirements for withdrawal from the Distribution Account shall be exclusive. In the event the Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Distribution Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.



	
            SECTION 3.12.
 	
            Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account.
 



(a)        The Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account and any REO Account and the Trustee may direct any depository institution maintaining the Distribution Account (each, for purposes of this Section 3.12, an “Investment Account”) to invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the Trustee is the obligor thereon or if such investment is managed or advised by a Person other than the Trustee or an Affiliate of the Trustee, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn
from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Trustee is the obligor thereon or if such investment is managed or advised by the Trustee or any Affiliate.  All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand.  Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such), or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee.  The Trustee shall be entitled to sole possession (except with respect to investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account or any REO Account and any income and gain realized thereon) over each such investment, and any certificate or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Trustee or its agent, together with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Trustee or its nominee.  In the event amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a Permitted Investment payable on
demand, the Trustee shall:


(x)        consistent with any notice required to be given thereunder, demand that payment thereon be made on the last day such Permitted Investment may otherwise mature hereunder in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) all amounts then payable thereunder and (2) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and


(y)        demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee that such Permitted Investment would not 


 









constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.


(b)        All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Collection Account and any REO Account held by or on behalf of the Servicer shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.11 or Section 3.23, as applicable.  All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Distribution Account held by or on behalf of the Trustee shall be for the benefit of the Trustee and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.11.  The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account and any REO Account, as applicable, the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of such loss.  The Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account
the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of such loss.


(c)        Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the making of a payment due under any Permitted Investment, or if a default occurs in any other performance required under any Permitted Investment, the Trustee may and, subject to Section 8.01 and Section 8.02(a)(v), upon the request of the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates representing more than 50% of the Voting Rights allocated to any Class of Certificates, shall take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment or performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate proceedings. 



	
            SECTION 3.13.
 	
            [Reserved].
 
	
            SECTION 3.14.
 	
            Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage.
 	
             

				



(a)        The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire insurance with extended coverage on the related Mortgaged Property in an amount which is at least equal to the least of the (i) current Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan (ii) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis and (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are part of such mortgaged property, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy.  The Servicer shall also cause to be maintained fire insurance with extended coverage on each REO Property in an amount which is at least equal to the least of (i) the maximum
insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property, (ii) the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became an REO Property and (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are part of such REO Property.  The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard policies.  Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the procedures that the Servicer would follow in servicing loans held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to 


 









Section 3.11, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.23, if received in respect of an REO Property.  Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.  If the Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has
been made available, the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the least of (i) the unpaid Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, (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) and (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are part of such Mortgaged Property.


In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of A:X or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide (or such other rating that is comparable to such rating) or otherwise acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac 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 two sentences of this Section 3.14, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first two sentences of this Section 3.14, and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Collection Account from its own funds
the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause.  In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.


(b)        The Servicer shall keep in force during the term of this Agreement a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions for failure in the performance of the Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement, which policy or policies shall be in such form and amount that would meet the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac if it were the purchaser of the Mortgage Loans, unless the Servicer has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, upon request, with copies of such insurance policies and fidelity bond.  The Servicer shall also maintain a fidelity bond in the form and amount that would meet the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, unless the Servicer has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The
Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the Servicer has such errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Servicer.  Any such errors and omissions policy and fidelity bond shall by its terms not be cancelable or materially modifiable without thirty days’ prior written notice to the Trustee and 


 









the NIMS Insurer.  The Servicer shall also cause each Sub-Servicer to maintain a policy of insurance covering errors and omissions and a fidelity bond which would meet such requirements.



	
            SECTION 3.15.
 	
            Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
 



The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to take such action if in its sole business judgment the Servicer believes it is not in the best interests of the Trust Fund and shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so.  If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding
sentence apply, the Servicer will enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon.  The Servicer is also authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note; provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such person satisfies the underwriting criteria of the Servicer and has a credit risk rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor.  In connection with any assumption or substitution, the Servicer shall apply such underwriting standards and follow such practices and procedures as shall be normal and usual in its general
mortgage servicing activities and as it applies to other mortgage loans owned solely by it.  The Servicer shall not take or enter into any assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the extent practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance policy.  Any fee collected by the Servicer in respect of an assumption, modification or substitution of liability agreement shall be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.  In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related Mortgage Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof.  The Servicer shall notify the Trustee and the Custodian that any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Custodian the
executed original of such substitution, modification or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof.


Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law 


 









from preventing, for any reason whatsoever.  For purposes of this Section 3.15, the term “assumption” is deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.



	
            SECTION 3.16.
 	
            Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
 



(a)        The Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with the servicing standards set forth in Section 3.01, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.07.  The Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.11 and Section 3.23.  The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the
restoration of such property unless it shall determine in its discretion that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself for such expenses.


(b)        Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.16 or any other provision of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trustee, either (i) obtain title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, such Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of
the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Servicer has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared by a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry standards, that:


(1)        such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance therewith; and


(2)        there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such environmental audit reveals, or if the Servicer has actual knowledge or notice, that such Mortgaged Property contains such toxic or 


 









hazardous wastes or substances, the Servicer shall not foreclose or accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure without the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer.


The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 3.16 shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.11(a)(ix), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.


If the Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund; provided that any amounts disbursed by the Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.16(b) shall constitute Servicing Advances, subject to Section 4.03(d).  The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Servicer, subject to the Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as
provided in Section 3.11(a)(iii) and (a)(ix), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.


(c)        The Servicer or the NIMS Insurer may, at the option of each, purchase a Mortgage Loan which has become 90 or more days delinquent or for which the Servicer has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  Prior to purchase pursuant to this Section 3.16(c), the Servicer shall be required to continue to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.03.  The Servicer or the NIMS Insurer shall not use any procedure in selecting Mortgage Loans to be repurchased which is materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders.  The Servicer or the NIMS Insurer shall purchase such delinquent Mortgage Loan at a price equal to the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan.  Any such purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16(c)(i) shall be accomplished by remittance to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account of the amount of the
Purchase Price.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer or the NIM Insurer shall purchase Mortgage Loans that are delinquent the greatest number of days before it may purchase any that are delinquent any fewer number of days.  The Trustee shall immediately effectuate the conveyance of such delinquent Mortgage Loan to the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, to the extent necessary to vest in the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, title to such Mortgage Loan, including the prompt delivery of all documentation to the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable.


(d)        Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or condemnation proceeds, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii) and Advances pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii); third, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery Determination, or to the Due Date prior to 


 









the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to be distributed if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan.  The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be reimbursed to the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii). 



	
            SECTION 3.17.
 	
            Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
 



(a)        Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee (or the Custodian on its behalf), in written (with two executed copies) or electronic format, a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit E (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 Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10 have been or will be so deposited) signed by a Servicing Officer (or in a mutually agreeable electronic format that will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer) and shall request delivery to it of the Mortgage File.  Upon receipt of
such certification and request, the Custodian shall, within three Business Days, release and send by overnight mail, the related Mortgage File to the Servicer and the Servicer is authorized to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS® System of any such Mortgage Loan, if applicable.  The Trustee agrees to indemnify the Servicer, out of its own funds, for any loss, liability or expense (other than special, indirect, punitive or consequential damages which will not be paid by the Trustee) incurred by the Servicer as a proximate result of the Trustee’s breach of its obligations pursuant to this Section 3.17.  Except as otherwise provided herein, expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account or the Distribution Account. 


(b)        From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose, collection under any insurance policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Custodian shall, upon any request made by or on behalf of the Servicer and delivery to the Custodian, in written or electronic format, of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit E, release the related Mortgage File within three Business Days to the Servicer, and shall, at the direction of the Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings.  Such Request for Release shall obligate the Servicer to return each and every document previously requested from the Mortgage File to the Custodian when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the
Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Servicer has delivered, or caused to be delivered, to the Custodian an additional Request for Release certifying as to such liquidation or action or proceedings.  Upon the request of the Trustee, the Servicer shall provide notice to the Trustee of the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.  Upon receipt of a Request for Release, in written or electronic format from, a Servicing Officer stating that such Mortgage Loan was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection
with such liquidation that are 


 









required to be deposited into the Collection Account have been so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, any outstanding Requests for Release with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall be released by the Custodian to the Servicer or its designee.


(c)        Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, 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.  Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not 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 3.18.
 	
            Servicing Compensation.
 



As compensation for the activities of the Servicer hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such Mortgage Loan, subject to Section 3.24.  In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees out of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds and condemnation proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.11(a)(iii) and out of amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.23. Except as provided in Section 6.04, the right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Servicer may pay from the Servicing Fee any amounts due to a
Sub-Servicer pursuant to a Sub-Servicing Agreement entered into under Section 3.02. As part of its servicing compensation, the Servicer shall also be entitled to Prepayment Interest Excess.


Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption or modification fees, late payment charges, insufficient funds charges, ancillary income or otherwise (subject to Section 3.24 and other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Servicer only to the extent such fees or charges are received by the Servicer.  The Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account and pursuant to Section 3.23(b) to withdraw from any REO Account, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein, subject to Section 3.12 and Section 3.24.  The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including premiums for the insurance required by Section 3.14, to the extent such premiums are not paid by the related Mortgagors or by a
Sub-Servicer and servicing compensation of each Sub-Servicer) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided herein.


 









 



	
            SECTION 3.19.
 	
            Reports to the Trustee; Collection Account Statements.
 



Not later than twenty days after each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall forward, upon request, to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor the most current available bank statement for the Collection Account.  Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party; provided that such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.



	
            SECTION 3.20.
 	
            Statement as to Compliance.
 



The Servicer will deliver to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor not later than March 15th of each calendar year (beginning in 2006), an Officer’s Certificate, in a form similar to Exhibit L attached hereto as agreed upon by the parties hereto, stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding year and of performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers’ supervision and (ii) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof. Copies of any such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and to any
Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party; provided that such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee. In addition to the foregoing, the Servicer will, to the extent reasonable, provide any other servicing information required by the Commission pursuant to applicable law.  


 



	
            SECTION 3.21.
 	
            Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Report.
 



Not later than March 15th of each calendar year (beginning in 2006), the Servicer, at its expense, shall cause a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants to furnish to the Servicer a report stating that (i) it has obtained a letter of representation regarding certain matters from the management of the Servicer which includes an assertion that the Servicer has complied with certain minimum residential mortgage loan servicing standards, identified in the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers established by the Mortgage Bankers Association of America, with respect to the servicing of residential mortgage loans during the most recently completed calendar year and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted by such firm in accordance with standards established by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, such representation is
fairly stated in all material respects, subject to such exceptions and other qualifications that may be appropriate. In rendering its report such firm may rely, as to matters relating to the direct servicing of residential mortgage loans by Sub-Servicers, upon comparable reports of firms of independent certified public accountants rendered on the basis of examinations conducted in accordance with the same standards (rendered within one year of such report) with respect to those Sub-Servicers. Immediately upon receipt of such report, the Servicer shall furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor.  Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided that such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.


 









 



	
            SECTION 3.22.
 	
            Access to Certain Documentation.
 



The Servicer shall provide to the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificateholder, access to the documentation in the Servicer’s possession regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable laws and regulations. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it. In addition, access to the documentation in the Servicer’s possession regarding the Mortgage Loans will be provided to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders and the NIMS Insurer upon reasonable request during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it at the expense of the Person requesting such access; provided however that providing access to such Person
will not violate any applicable laws. Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors (absent proof that it is in compliance with applicable law) and the failure of the Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.  Nothing in this Section 3.22 shall require the Servicer to collect, create, collate or otherwise generate any information that it does not generate in its usual course of business.  The Servicer shall not be required to make copies of or ship documents to any party unless provisions have been made for the reimbursement of the costs thereof.



	
            SECTION 3.23.
 	
            Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.
 



(a)        The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall, subject to applicable laws, be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  The Servicer, on behalf of REMIC I, shall sell any REO Property as soon as practical and in any event no later than the end of the third full taxable year after the taxable year in which such REMIC acquires ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or request from the Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days before the day on which the three-year grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of such three-year period, unless the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and addressed to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the
Depositor, to the effect that the holding by the REMIC of such REO Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result in the imposition on the REMIC of taxes on “prohibited transactions” thereof, as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause any of the REMICs created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC under Federal law at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.  The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by any of the REMICs created hereunder of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any “net income from foreclosure property” which is subject to taxation under the
REMIC Provisions.


(b)        The Servicer shall separately account for all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property and shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, with respect to REO Properties an account held in trust for the 


 









Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders (the “REO Account”), which shall be an Eligible Account.  The Servicer shall be permitted to allow the Collection Account to serve as the REO Account, subject to separate ledgers for each REO Property.  The Servicer shall be entitled to retain or withdraw any interest income paid on funds deposited in the REO Account.


(c)        The Servicer shall have full power and authority, subject only to the specific requirements and prohibitions of this Agreement, to do any and all things in connection with any REO Property as are consistent with the manner in which the Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by the Servicer or any of its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such period (subject to the requirement of prompt disposition set forth in Section 3.23(a)) as the Servicer deems to be in the best interests of Certificateholders.  In connection therewith, the Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited in the clearing account in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Servicer’s
receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the REO Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, all revenues received by it with respect to an REO Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of such REO Property including, without limitation:



	
            (i)
 	
            all insurance premiums due and payable in respect of such REO Property;
 



(ii)         all real estate taxes and assessments in respect of such REO Property that may result in the imposition of a lien thereon; and



	
            (iii)
 	
            all costs and expenses necessary to maintain such REO Property.
 



To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account with respect to an REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above with respect to such REO Property, the Servicer shall advance from its own funds such amount as is necessary for such purposes if, but only if, the Servicer would make such advances if the Servicer owned the REO Property and if in the Servicer’s judgment, the payment of such amounts will be recoverable from the rental or sale of the REO Property.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, neither the Servicer nor the Trustee shall:


(a)  authorize the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms will give rise to any income that does not constitute Rents from Real Property;


(b)  authorize any amount to be received or accrued under any New Lease other than amounts that will constitute Rents from Real Property;


(c)  authorize any construction on any REO Property, other than the completion of a building or other improvement thereon, and then only if more than ten percent of the construction of such building or other improvement was completed before default on the related Mortgage Loan became imminent, all within the meaning of Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the Code; or


 









 


(d)  authorize any Person to Directly Operate any REO Property on any date more than 90 days after its date of acquisition by the Trust Fund;


unless, in any such case, the Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel, provided to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held by the REMIC, in which case the Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.


The Servicer may contract with any Independent Contractor for the operation and management of any REO Property; provided that:


  (i)     the terms and conditions of any such contract shall not be inconsistent herewith;


  (ii)     any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including those listed above and remit all related revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty days following the receipt thereof by such Independent Contractor;


(iii)  none of the provisions of this Section 3.23(c) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Servicer of any of its duties and obligations to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and 


(iv)  the Servicer shall be obligated with respect thereto to the same extent as if it alone were performing all duties and obligations in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property.


The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.  The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether the Servicer’s compensation pursuant to Section 3.18 is sufficient to pay such fees; provided, however, that to the extent that any payments made by such Independent Contractor would constitute Servicing Advances if made by the Servicer, such amounts shall be reimbursable as Servicing Advances made by the Servicer.


(d)        In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section 3.23(c), the Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the REO Account for any REO Property: (i) to pay itself or any Sub-Servicer unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of the related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse itself or any Sub-Servicer for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances made in respect of such REO Property or the related Mortgage Loan.  On the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account maintained by it and deposit into the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 


 









3.10(d)(ii), for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01, the income from the related REO Property received during the prior calendar month, net of any withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.23(c) or this Section 3.23(d).


(e)        Subject to the time constraints set forth in Section 3.23(a), each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer shall deem necessary or advisable, as shall be normal and usual in the servicing standards set forth in Section 3.01.


(f)         The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any amount required by law to be remitted to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan and net of any payment or reimbursement to the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer as provided above, shall be deposited in the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii) on the Servicer Remittance Date in the month following the receipt thereof for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01.  Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only (unless changes in the REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration).


(g)        The Servicer shall file information returns with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a trade or business, reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property and cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property as required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code, respectively. 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 3.24.
 	
            Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.
 



The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit into the Distribution Account by 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date from its own funds an amount  (“Compensating Interest”) equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for the related Distribution Date resulting from full Principal Prepayments during the related Prepayment Period and (ii) the aggregate Servicing Fee received in the related Due Period.  The Servicer shall not be obligated to pay Compensating Interest with respect to Relief Act Interest Shortfalls. Any amounts paid by the Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.24 shall not be reimbursed by REMIC I.



	
            SECTION 3.25.
 	
            Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Mortgage Rates and Monthly Payments.  
 



In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the aggregate results from or is attributable to adjustments to Mortgage Rates, Monthly Payments or Stated Principal Balances that were made by the Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Servicer, upon discovery or receipt of notice thereof, immediately shall deposit in the Collection Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and any successor Servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities shall survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement.  


 









Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3.25 shall not limit the ability of the Servicer to seek recovery of any such amounts from the related Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Note, as permitted by law.



	
            SECTION 3.26.
 	
            Advance Facility
 



(a)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, (i) the Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into an advance facility (“Advance Facility”) under which (A) the Servicer sells, assigns or pledges to another Person (together with such person’s successors and assigns, an “Advancing Person”) the Servicer’s rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed for any Advances or Servicing Advances and/or (B) an Advancing Person agrees to fund some or all Advances or Servicing Advances required to be made by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement and (ii) the Servicer is hereby authorized to assign its rights to the Servicing Fee; it being understood that neither the Trust Fund nor any party hereto shall have a right or claim (including
without limitation any right of offset) to the portion of the Servicing Fee so assigned.  No consent of the Trustee, Certificateholders or any other party is required before the 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 Servicer’s behalf, the Servicer shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make Advances and Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement, and shall not be relieved of such obligations by virtue of such Advance Facility.  If the 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 related thereto (“Advance Reimbursement Amounts”) and/or Servicing Advances, including Nonrecoverable Servicing Advances related thereto (“Servicing Advance Reimbursement
Amounts” and, together with Advance Reimbursement Amounts, “Reimbursement Amounts”) (in each case to the extent that such type of Reimbursement Amount is included in the Advance Facility), then the Servicer shall identify such Reimbursement Amounts as received, consistently with the reimbursement rights set forth in this Agreement, and shall remit such Reimbursement Amounts 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.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if so required pursuant to the terms of the Advance Facility, the Servicer may direct the Trustee to, and if so directed the Trustee is hereby authorized to and shall, pay to the Advancing Person or the Advance Facility Trustee the Reimbursement Amounts identified pursuant to the preceding sentence.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event
shall Reimbursement Amounts be included in Available Funds or distributed to Certificateholders.  


If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, the Servicer and the related Advancing Person shall deliver to the Trustee a written notice of the existence of such Advance Facility (an “Advance Facility Notice”), stating the identity of the Advancing Person and any related Advance Facility Trustee.  An Advance Facility Notice may only be terminated by the joint written direction of the Servicer and the related Advancing Person as described in Section 3.26(h) below.


(b)        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 


 









Servicer would be permitted to reimburse itself in accordance with this Agreement, assuming the Servicer had made the related Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s).  The Trustee shall have no duty or liability with respect to the calculation of any Reimbursement Amount, nor shall the Trustee have any responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the Advance Facility or the payment of Reimbursement Amounts to the related Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee.  The Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor Servicer a detailed accounting on a loan by loan basis as to amounts advanced by, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advancing Person.  The successor Servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information provided by the predecessor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall not be liable for any errors in such information.


(c)        An Advancing Person who receives an assignment or pledge of the rights to be reimbursed for Advances and/or Servicing Advances, and/or whose obligations are limited to the making or funding of Advances will not be deemed to be a Sub-servicer under this Agreement or be required to meet the criteria for qualification as a Sub-servicer under this Agreement.


(d)        Reimbursement Amounts allocated to reimburse Advances or Servicing Advances made with respect to any particular Mortgage Loan shall be allocated to the reimbursement of the 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, such that the Reimbursement Amounts shall be applied to reimburse the Advance or Servicing Advance (as the case may be) for that Mortgage Loan that was disbursed earliest in time first, and to reimburse the Advance or Servicing Advance (as the case may be) for that Mortgage Loan that was disbursed latest in time last.  Liquidation Proceeds with respect to a Mortgage Loan shall be applied to reimburse Servicing Advances outstanding with respect to that Mortgage Loan before being applied to reimburse
Advances outstanding with respect to that Mortgage Loan.  The Servicer shall provide to the related Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee loan-by-loan information with respect to each Reimbursement Amount remitted to such Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee, to enable the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee to make the FIFO allocation of each such Reimbursement Amount with respect to each Mortgage Loan.  


(e)        The Servicer who enters into an Advance Facility shall indemnify the Trustee, the Trust Fund, the Depositor and any successor Servicer for any claim, loss, liability or damage resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Person, except to the extent that such claim, loss, liability or damage (i) in the case of the Depositor, was incurred by reason of the Depositor's willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder, (ii) in the case of a successor Servicer, was incurred by reason of such successor Servicer's willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder or by reason of a breach of such successor Servicer's
obligations and duties under this Agreement or (iii) in the case of the Trustee or the Trust Fund, (A) resulted from a breach of the Servicer's or a successor Servicer's obligations and duties under this Agreement for which the Trustee is indemnified under Section 6.03(a) or (B) was incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence of the Trustee in the performance of its duties hereunder or by reason of the Trustee's reckless disregard of obligations and duties 


 









hereunder or as a result of a breach of the Trustee's obligations under Article VIII hereof. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the exclusions set forth in clauses (i), (ii) and (iii) above from the Servicer's obligation to indemnify the Depositor, any successor Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust Fund shall not be applicable, in any case, to the extent the applicable claim, loss, liability or damage was incurred by reason of the Servicer's willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder or by reason of a breach of the Servicer's obligations and duties under this Agreement.


(f)         Any amendment to this Section 3.26 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 3.26, including amendments to add provisions relating to a successor Servicer, may be entered into by the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer without the consent of any Certificateholder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement.


(g)        Any rights of set-off that the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor, any successor Servicer or any other Person might otherwise have against the 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.


(h)        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 Servicer to the Trustee terminating the Advance Facility Notice (the “Notice of Facility Termination”), the Servicer shall again be entitled to withdraw and retain the related Reimbursement Amounts from the Collection Account pursuant to the applicable Sections of this Agreement.


(i)         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 3.26 may not be amended or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of the related Advancing Person.

Amounts payable as Uncertificated Interest in respect of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ shall be reduced and deferred when the REMIC I Overcollateralized Amount is less than the REMIC I Required Overcollateralization Amount, by the lesser of (x) the amount of such difference and (y) the Maximum I-LTZZ Uncertificated Interest Deferral Amount and such amount will be payable to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA1, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA2, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA3, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA4, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA5, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM1, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM2, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM3, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM4, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM5, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM6, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM7, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM8, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM9,
REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM10, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM11 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM12 in the same proportion as the Overcollateralization Deficiency Amount is allocated to the Corresponding Certificates and the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ shall be increased by such amount; and


(b)        to Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LT1SUB, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LT1GRP, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LT2SUB, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LT2GRP and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTXX, pro rata, in an amount equal to (A) the Uncertificated Interest for such Distribution Date, plus (B) any amounts in respect thereof remaining unpaid from previous Distribution Dates;

Distribution Date after the distributions made pursuant to clause (i) above, allocated as follows:


(a)        98.00% of such remainder to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTP, until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC I Regular Interests are reduced to zero; provided, however, that REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTP shall not be reduced until the Distribution Date immediately following the expiration of the latest Prepayment Charge as identified on the Prepayment Charge Schedule or any Distribution Date thereafter, at which point such amount shall be distributed to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTP, until $100 has been distributed pursuant to this clause;


(b)        2.00% of such remainder, first to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA1, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA2, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA3, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA4, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTA5, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM1, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM2, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM3, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM4, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM5, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM6, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM7, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM8, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM9, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM10, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM11 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM12 equal to 1.00% of and in the same proportion as principal payments are allocated to the Corresponding Certificates, until the Uncertificated Balances of such REMIC I Regular Interests are reduced to zero and second,
to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 1.00%, until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC I Regular Interest is reduced to zero; and


(c)        any remaining amount to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-I Interest);


provided, however, that (i) 98.00% and (ii) 2.00% of any principal payments that are attributable to an Overcollateralization Release Amount shall be allocated to Holders of (i) REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTP, in that order and (ii) REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, respectively; provided that REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTP shall not be reduced until the Distribution Date immediately following the expiration of the latest Prepayment Charge as identified on the Prepayment Charge Schedule or any Distribution Date thereafter, at which point such amount shall be distributed to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTP, until $100 has been distributed pursuant to this clause.


On each Distribution Date, all amounts representing Prepayment Charges in respect of the Mortgage Loans during the related Prepayment Period and any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amount paid by the Servicer during the related Prepayment Period will be distributed by REMIC I to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTP. The payment of the foregoing amounts to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTP shall not reduce the Uncertificated Balance thereof.


(iii)  to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interests, in an amount equal to the remainder of the REMIC I Sub WAC Allocation Percentage of Available Funds for such Distribution Date after the distributions made pursuant to clause (i) above, allocated so that 


 









distributions of principal shall be deemed to be made to the REMIC I Regular Interests first, so as to keep the Uncertificated Balance of each REMIC I Regular Interest ending with the designation “GRP” equal to 0.01% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group; second, to each REMIC I Regular Interest ending with the designation “SUB,” so that the Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC I Regular Interest is equal to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group over (y) the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificate in the related Loan Group (except that if any such excess is a larger number than in the preceding distribution period, the least amount of principal shall be distributed to such REMIC I Regular Interests such that the REMIC I
Subordinated Balance Ratio is maintained); and third, any remaining principal to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTXX.


(2)(I)    On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account that portion of Available Funds for such Distribution Date consisting of the Group I Interest Remittance Amount for such Distribution Date, and make the following distributions in the order of priority described below, in each case to the extent of the Group I Interest Remittance Amount remaining for such Distribution Date:

(ii)         concurrently, to the Holders of the Group II Certificates, on a pro rata basis, based on the entitlement of each such Class, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the amount required to be distributed pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(2)(II)(i) for such Distribution Date over (y) the amount actually distributed pursuant to such sections, from the Group II Interest Remittance Amount.


(II)        On each Distribution Date the Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account that portion of Available Funds for such Distribution Date consisting of the Group II Interest Remittance Amount for such Distribution Date, and make the following distributions in the order of priority described below, in each case to the extent of the Group II Interest Remittance Amount remaining for such Distribution Date:

(ii)         concurrently, to the Holders of the Group I Certificates, on a pro rata basis, based on the entitlement of each such Class, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of (x) the amount required to be distributed pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(2)(I)(i) for such Distribution Date over (y) the amount actually distributed pursuant to such sections from the Group I Interest Remittance Amount.


 









 


(III)                  On each Distribution Date, following the distributions made pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(2)(I) and Section 4.01(a)(2)(II) above, the Trustee shall distribute, in each case to the extent of the sum of the Group I Interest Remittance Amount and the Group II Interest Remittance Amount remaining undistributed for such Distribution Date, sequentially to the Holders of the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8, Class M-9, Class M-10, Class M-11 and Class M-12 Certificates, in that order, in an amount equal to the Monthly Interest Distributable Amount for each such Class.

Notwithstanding any provisions contained in this Agreement to the contrary, on any Distribution Date on which the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Subordinate Certificates has been reduced to zero, all distributions of principal to the Group I Certificates or Group II Certificates, as applicable, shall be distributed on a pro rata basis based on the Certificate Principal Balance of each such Class.


(4)        On each Distribution Date, the Net Monthly Excess Cashflow shall be distributed as follows:


(i)         to the Holders of the Class or Classes of Certificates then entitled to receive distributions in respect of principal, in an amount equal to any Extra Principal Distribution Amount, distributable to such Holders as part of the Group I Principal Distribution Amount and/or the Group II Principal Distribution Amount as described under Section 4.01(a)(3) above;

(v)    if such Distribution Date follows the Prepayment Period during which occurs the latest date on which a Prepayment Charge may be required to be paid in respect of any Mortgage Loans, to the Holders of the Class P Certificates, in reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance thereof, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof is reduced to zero; and


(vi)   any remaining amounts to the Holders of the Residual Certificates (in respect of the appropriate Class R Interest).


Without limiting the provisions of Section 9.01(b), by acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the Holders of the Residual Certificates agree, and it is the understanding of the parties hereto, that for so long as any of the notes issued pursuant to the Indenture are outstanding or any amounts are reimbursable or payable to the NIMS Insurer in accordance with 


 









the terms of the Indenture, to pledge their rights to receive any amounts otherwise distributable to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (and such rights are hereby assigned and transferred) to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates.


On each Distribution Date, after making the distributions of the Available Funds as set forth above, the Trustee will withdraw from the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, to the extent of amounts remaining on deposit therein, the amount of any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount for such Distribution Date and distribute such amount in the following order of priority:

(E)        to the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, any related unpaid Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount (after taking into account distributions pursuant to (A), (B) and (C) above), distributed in the following order of priority:


(i)         to the Class A Certificates, on a pro rata basis based on the remaining Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount for each such Class; and

On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw any amounts then on deposit in the Distribution Account that represent (i) Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer in connection with the Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans or (ii) any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amount, and shall distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Class P Certificates.  Such distributions shall not be applied to reduce the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class P Certificates.


Following the foregoing distributions, an amount equal to the amount of Subsequent Recoveries remitted to the Servicer shall be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the Highest Priority up to the extent of such Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04.  An 


 









amount equal to the amount of any remaining Subsequent Recoveries shall be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the next Highest Priority, up to the amount of such Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04.  Holders of such Certificates will not be entitled to any distribution in respect of interest on the amount of such increases for any Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date on which such increase occurs.  Any such increases shall be applied to the Certificate Principal Balance of each Certificate of such Class in accordance with its respective Percentage Interest.


(b)  All distributions made with respect to each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be allocated pro rata among the outstanding Certificates in such Class based on their respective Percentage Interests.  Distributions in respect of each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date will be made to the Holders of the respective Class of record on the related Record Date (except as otherwise provided in Section 4.01(e) or Section 9.01 respecting the final distribution on such Class), based on the aggregate Percentage Interest represented by their respective Certificates, and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of any such Holder at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if such Holder shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five
Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Certificates having an initial aggregate Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount that is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the initial Certificate Principal Balance or Notional Amount of such Class of Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate Register.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust Office of the Trustee or such other location specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.


Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Certificate shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures.  Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Certificate Owners that it represents and to each indirect participating brokerage firm (a “brokerage firm” or “indirect participating firm”) for which it acts as agent.  Each brokerage firm shall be responsible for disbursing funds to the Certificate Owners that it represents.  None of the Trustee,  the Depositor or the Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor except as otherwise provided by this Agreement or applicable law.


(c)  The rights of the Certificateholders to receive distributions in respect of the Certificates, and all interests of the Certificateholders in such distributions, shall be as set forth in this Agreement.  None of the Holders of any Class of Certificates, the Trustee or the Servicer shall in any way be responsible or liable to the Holders of any other Class of Certificates in respect of amounts properly previously distributed on the Certificates.


(d) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Trustee expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Trustee shall, no later than three (3) days before the related Distribution Date, mail to each Holder on such date of such Class of Certificates a notice to the effect that:


 









 



	
            (i)
 	
            the Trustee expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will be made on such Distribution Date but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office of the Trustee therein specified, and
 
	
            (ii)
 	
            no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after the end of the related Accrual Period.
 



Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust by the Trustee and credited to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders.  If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(e) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto.  If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, directly or through an agent, mail a
final notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates but shall continue to hold any remaining funds for the benefit of non-tendering Certificateholders.  The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in the Trust Fund.  If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to UBS Securities LLC all such amounts, and all rights of non-tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust by the Trustee as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(e).  Any such amounts held in trust by the Trustee shall be held in an Eligible Account and the Trustee
may direct any depository institution maintaining such account to invest the funds in one or more Permitted Investments.  All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in such accounts held in trust by the Trustee shall be for the benefit of the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee shall deposit in such account the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon the realization of such loss.


(e)  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) in no event shall the Certificate Principal Balance of a Class A Certificate or a Mezzanine Certificate be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both (a) allocated to such Certificate in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 4.04 and (b) distributed to the Holder of such Certificate in reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance thereof pursuant to this Section 4.01 from Net Monthly Excess Cashflow and (ii) in no event shall the Uncertificated Balance of a REMIC I Regular Interest be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both (a) allocated to such REMIC I Regular Interest in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 4.04 and (b) distributed on such REMIC I Regular Interest in reduction of the Uncertificated Balance thereof pursuant to this Section 4.01.

            SECTION 4.03.
 	
            Remittance Reports; Advances.
 



(a)  Not later than the eighteenth day of each calendar month or if such eighteenth day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Credit Risk Manager and the NIMS Insurer by telecopy or electronic mail (or by such other means as the Servicer and the Trustee may agree from time to time) a Remittance Report with respect to the related Distribution Date.  Not later than the eighteenth day of each 


 









calendar month or if such eighteenth day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day, the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee in addition to the information provided on the Remittance Report, such other information reasonably available to it with respect to the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee may reasonably require to perform the calculations necessary to make the distributions contemplated by Section 4.01 and to prepare the statements to Certificateholders contemplated by Section 4.03. The Trustee shall not be responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify any information provided to it by the Servicer.


(b)  The amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer for any Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.03(d), the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Monthly Payments (net of the related Servicing Fee), due during the related Due Period in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which Monthly Payments were delinquent on a contractual basis as of the close of business on the related Determination Date; provided however, that with respect to any Balloon Mortgage Loan that is delinquent on its maturity date, the Servicer will not be required to advance the related Balloon Payment but will be required to continue to make Advances in accordance with this Section 4.04(b) with respect to such Balloon Mortgage Loan in an amount equal to an assumed scheduled interest that would otherwise be due based on the original amortization schedule for that Balloon Mortgage Loan (with interest
at the Mortgage Rate less the Servicing Fee Rate) and (ii) with respect to each REO Property, which REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Due Period and as to which REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the related Due Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the REO Imputed Interest on such REO Property for the most recently ended calendar month, over the net income from such REO Property transferred to the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.23 for distribution on such Distribution Date.


On or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution (in which case it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this Section 4.03, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties. Any amounts held
for future distribution used by the Servicer to make an Advance as permitted in the preceding sentence shall be appropriately reflected in the Servicer’s records and replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Funds for the related Distribution Date (determined without regard to Advances to be made on the Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be distributed to the Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on such Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had not been so used to make Advances. The Trustee will provide notice to the Servicer and the NIMS Insurer by telecopy by the close of business on any Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the Servicer to the Trustee on such date is less than the Advances required to be made by the Servicer for the related Distribution Date, as set
forth in the related Remittance Report.


 









 


(c)  The obligation of the Servicer to make such Advances is mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to (d) below and (b) above with respect to Balloon Loan Payments, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, shall continue until the Mortgage Loan is paid in full or until all Liquidation Proceeds thereon have been recovered, or a Final Recovery Determination has been made thereon.


(d)  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advance or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Servicer if such Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively. The determination by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed Advance or Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively, shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Credit Risk Manager and the Trustee.  Furthermore, the Servicer shall not be required to advance Relief Act Interest Shortfalls.



	
            SECTION 4.04.
 	
            Allocation of Realized Losses.
 



(a)  Not later than the eighteenth day of the calendar month in which such Distribution Date occurs or if such eighteenth day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day, the Servicer shall determine as to each Mortgage Loan and REO Property: (i) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Final Recovery Determinations made during the related Prepayment Period;  and (ii) the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and allocable to principal. Not later than the eighteenth day of the calendar month in which such Distribution Date occurs or if such eighteenth day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day, the Servicer shall also determine as to each Mortgage Loan: (i) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Deficient Valuations made during the related Prepayment Period;
and (ii) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with Debt Service Reductions in respect of Monthly Payments due during the related Due Period.  The information described in the preceding sentence that is to be supplied by the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee by the Servicer not later than the eighteenth day of the calendar month in which such Distribution Date occurs or if such eighteenth day is not a Business Day, the following Business Day, immediately following the end of the Prepayment Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred.


(b)  All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date as follows: first, to Net Monthly Excess Cashflow; second, to the Class CE Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; third to the Class M-12 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fourth to the Class M-11 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fifth to the Class M-10 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the Class M-9 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Class M-8 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; eighth, to the Class M-7 Certificates, until the
Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; ninth, to the Class M-6 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been 


 









reduced to zero; tenth, to the Class M-5 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; eleventh, to the Class M-4 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; twelfth, to the Class M-3 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; thirteenth, to the Class M-2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and fourteenth, to the Class M-1 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero.  All Realized Losses to be allocated to the Certificate Principal Balances of all Classes on any Distribution Date shall be so allocated after the actual distributions to be made on such date as provided above.  All references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates shall be to the
Certificate Principal Balance of such Class immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by any Realized Losses, in each case to be allocated to such Class of Certificates, on such Distribution Date.


Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Mezzanine Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated; any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class CE Certificate shall be made by reducing the amount otherwise payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(4)(iv).  No allocations of any Realized Losses shall be made to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Class A Certificates or the Class P Certificates.


As used herein, 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.  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.


(c)  (i)         The REMIC I Marker Percentage of all Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date to the following REMIC I Regular Interests in the specified percentages, as follows: first, to Uncertificated Interest payable to the REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC I Interest Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively; second, to the Uncertificated Balances of the REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC I Principal Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively; third, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM12 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%,
respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM12 has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM11 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM11 has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM10 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM10 has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM9 and REMIC 


 









I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM9 has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM8 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM8 has been reduced to zero; eighth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM7 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM7 has been reduced to zero; ninth to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM6 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular
Interest I-LTM6 has been reduced to zero; tenth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM5 and REMIC I Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM5 has been reduced to zero; eleventh, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM4 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM4 has been reduced to zero; twelfth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM3 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM3 has been reduced to zero; thirteenth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM2 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ,
98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM2 has been reduced to zero; and fourteenth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTAA, REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM1 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTM1 has been reduced to zero.


(ii)         The REMIC I Sub WAC Allocation Percentage of all Realized Losses shall be applied after all distributions have been made on each Distribution Date first, so as to keep the Uncertificated Balance of each REMIC I Regular Interest ending with the designation “GRP” equal to 0.01% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group; second, to each REMIC I Regular Interest ending with the designation “SUB,” so that the Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC I Regular Interest is equal to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group over (y) the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificate in the related Loan Group (except that if any such excess is a larger number than in the preceding distribution
period, the least amount of Realized Losses shall be applied to such REMIC I Regular Interests such that the REMIC I Subordinated Balance Ratio is maintained); and third, any remaining Realized Losses shall be allocated to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LTXX.



	
            SECTION 4.05.
 	
            Compliance with Withholding Requirements
 



Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall comply with all federal withholding requirements respecting payments to Certificateholders of interest or original issue discount that the Trustee reasonably believes are applicable under the Code.  The consent of Certificateholders shall not be required for such withholding.  In the event the Trustee 


 









does withhold any amount from interest or original issue discount payments or advances thereof to any Certificateholder pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the Trustee shall indicate the amount withheld to such Certificateholders.



	
            SECTION 4.06.
 	
            Exchange Commission; Additional Information.
 



(a)  The Trustee and the Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with satisfying the reporting requirements of the Trust Fund under the Exchange Act.  The Trustee shall prepare and sign on behalf of the Trust Fund any Forms 8-K customary for similar securities as required by the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Commission thereunder, and the Trustee shall file (via the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System) such forms on behalf of the Trust Fund.  The Trustee shall prepare and sign any Form 10-K which includes as exhibits (i) the Certification (as defined in (b) below), (ii) the Servicer’s annual statement of compliance described under Section 3.20 and (iii) the accountant’s report described under Section 3.21 and the Trustee shall file (via the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering and
Retrieval System) such forms on behalf of the Trust Fund.  To the extent that the Commission requires any additional information to be filed pursuant to a Form 10-K, the Trustee, shall prepare, sign and promptly file an amended Form 10-K containing such additional information.  To the extent that the Servicer acquires actual knowledge of material information (as determined by the Servicer in good faith) concerning the Trust Fund, it shall notify the Trustee of such information.


(b)  Each Form 8-K shall be filed by the Trustee within 15 days after each Distribution Date with a copy of the Monthly Statement for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto.  Prior to March 31st of each year (or such earlier date as may be required by the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Commission), the Trustee shall file a Form 10-K, in substance as required by applicable law or applicable Commission staff’s interpretations.  Such Form 10-K shall include as exhibits the Servicer’s annual statement of compliance described under Section 3.20 and the accountant’s report described under Section 3.21, in each case to the extent they have been timely delivered to the Trustee.  If they are not so timely delivered, the Trustee shall file an amended Form 10-K including such documents as exhibits
reasonably promptly after they are delivered to the Trustee.  The Trustee shall have no liability with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file such periodic reports resulting from or relating to (a) the Trustee’s inability or failure to obtain any information not resulting from its own negligence or willful misconduct or (b) any inaccuracy in such periodic reports resulting from incorrect information provided to the Trustee by the Servicer in a Remittance Report or otherwise.  The Form 10-K shall also include a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-1 (the “Certification”), which shall be signed by the Trustee.


(c)  In addition, the Servicer shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-2) for the benefit of the Trustee and its officers, directors and Affiliates regarding certain aspects of the Certification (provided, however, that the Servicer shall not undertake an analysis of the accountant’s report attached as an exhibit to the Form 10-K).  The Servicer’s certification shall be delivered to the Trustee by no later than March 15th of each year (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day).


 









 


In addition, (i) the Trustee shall, subject to the provisions of Sections 8.01 and 8.02, indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and the Servicer and their respective officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach of the Trustee’s obligations under Section 4.06(b) or the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith, and (ii) the Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trustee and their respective officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach of the
Servicer’s obligations under this Section 4.06(b) or the Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.  If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor or the Servicer, then (i) the Trustee agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Depositor or the Servicer, as applicable, as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Depositor or the Servicer, as applicable, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the or the Depositor or the Servicer, as applicable, on the one hand and the Trustee on the other in connection with  a breach of the Trustee’s obligations under this Section 4.06(b) or the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith and (ii) the Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Depositor or the Trustee, as applicable, as a
result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Depositor or the Trustee, as applicable, in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Depositor or the Trustee, as applicable, on the one hand and the Servicer on the other in connection with a breach of the Servicer’s obligations under this Section 4.06(b) or the Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.  Notwithstanding any other provision in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer shall not have any responsibility or liability to any party relating to the certification or information prepared, certified or distributed by the Trustee or any other party other than the Servicer unless such information was derived from erroneous or incomplete information required to be provided by the Servicer under this Agreement.


(d)  Upon any filing with the Commission pursuant to this Section 4.06(b), the Trustee shall promptly deliver to the Depositor a copy of any executed report, statement or information.


(e)  Prior to January 30 of the first year in which the Trustee is able to do so under applicable law, the Trustee shall file a Form 15 Suspension Notification with respect to the Trust Fund.



	
            SECTION 4.07.
 	
            Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.
 



No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain with itself a separate, segregated trust account titled, “U.S. Bank National Association as Trustee, in trust for the registered holders of MASTR Asset Backed Securities Trust 2005-WMC1, Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-WMC1—Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.” All amounts deposited in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class A Certificates and/or the Mezzanine Certificates in the manner set forth in Section 4.01(d).


 









 


On each Distribution Date as to which there is a Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount payable to the Class A Certificates and/or the Mezzanine Certificates, the Trustee has been directed by the Class CE Certificateholders to, and therefore will, deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amounts described in Section 4.01(a)(4)(iv), rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE Certificateholders. In addition, any payments received by the Trustee under the Cap Contracts on each Distribution Date will be deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.  On each such Distribution Date, the Trustee shall hold all such amounts for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, and will distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, as applicable, in the amounts and priorities
set forth in Section 4.01(d).


On each Distribution Date, any amounts remaining in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account (representing payments received by the Trustee under the Cap Contracts) after the payment of any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts on the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, as applicable, for such Distribution Date, shall be payable to the Trustee.


For federal and state income tax purposes, the Trustee will be deemed to be the owner of the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account (other than amounts paid by the Cap Contracts). All amounts deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account (other than amounts received under the Cap Contracts) shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC II to the Holder of the Class CE Interest and by REMIC III to the Holder of the Class CE Certificates.  The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h).  Upon the termination of the Trust, or the payment in full of the Class A and the Mezzanine Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be released by the Trust and distributed to the Trustee or its designee.  The Net WAC Rate Carryover
Reserve Account will be part of the Trust but not part of any REMIC and any payments to the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860(G)(a)(1).


By accepting a Class CE Certificate, each Class CE Certificateholder hereby agrees to direct the Trustee, and the Trustee hereby is directed, to deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amounts described above on each Distribution Date as to which there is any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE Certificateholders. By accepting a Class CE Certificate, each Class CE Certificateholder further agrees that such direction is given for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by such acceptance.


Amounts on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall remain uninvested.


For federal tax return and information reporting, the purchase price allocated to each applicable Cap Contract in respect of any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount shall be 


 









$146,900, $195,200 and $ 503,900 with respect to the Group I Certificates, Group II Certificate and Mezzanine Certificates, respectively.

THE CERTIFICATES



	
            SECTION 5.01.
 	
            The Certificates.
 



(a)  The Certificates in the aggregate will represent the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other assets included in REMIC I.


The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibits A-1 through A-21. The Certificates of each Class will be issuable in registered form only, in denominations of authorized Percentage Interests as described in the definition thereof.  Each Certificate will share ratably in all rights of the related Class.


Upon original issue, the Certificates shall be executed by the Trustee and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee to or upon the order of the Depositor.  The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized signatory.  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 Certificates 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 herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature,
and such certificate of authentication 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 and the Mezzanine Certificates shall initially be issued as one or more Certificates held by the Book-Entry Custodian or, if appointed to hold such Certificates as provided below, the Depository and 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 such Certificates through the book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as provided below, shall not be entitled to definitive, fully registered Certificates (“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 representing such Certificate Owner.  Each Depository Participant shall only transfer the Ownership Interests 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 is hereby initially appointed as the Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance herewith and in accordance with the agreement that it has with the Depository authorizing it to act as such. The Book-Entry Custodian may, and, if it is no longer qualified to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall, appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee, any other transfer agent 


 









(including the Depository or any successor Depository) to act as Book-Entry Custodian under such conditions as the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian and the Depository or any successor Depository may prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities by reason of any such appointment of other than the Depository.  If the Trustee resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, the successor trustee or, if it so elects, the Depository shall immediately succeed to its predecessor’s duties as Book-Entry Custodian.  The Depositor shall have the right to inspect, and to obtain copies of, any Certificates held as Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian.


The Trustee, the Servicer and the Depositor may for all purposes (including the making of payments due on the Book-Entry Certificates) deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates for the purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder.  The rights of Certificate Owners with respect to the 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 the 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 (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, and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) after the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default, Certificate Owners representing in the aggregate not less than 51% of the Ownership Interests of the Book-Entry Certificates advise the Trustee through the Depository, in writing, that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, 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 Book-Entry Custodian or the
Depository, as applicable, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer, the Trustee shall cause the Definitive Certificates to be issued. Such Definitive Certificates will be issued in minimum denominations of $25,000, except that any beneficial ownership that was represented by a Book-Entry Certificate in an amount less than $25,000 immediately prior to the issuance of a Definitive Certificate shall be issued in a minimum denomination equal to the amount represented by such Book-Entry Certificate. None of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in the delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such
Definitive Certificates, and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.


 









 



	
            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 8.11, a Certificate Register for the Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.


(b)  No transfer of any Class M-11 Certificate, Class M-12 Certificate, Class CE Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate (collectively, the “Private Certificates”) shall be made unless that transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification.  In the event that such a transfer of a Private Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) the transfer of any such Class CE, Class P or Residual Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the
indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor), the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall each require receipt of: (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and from such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit F-1; and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Trust Fund), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee upon which such
Opinion of Counsel is based, if any.  None of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Private Certificates under the 1933 Act or any other securities laws or to take any action not otherwise required under this Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.  If a transfer of an Ownership Interest in the Class M-11 Certificates or Class M-12 Certificates is to be made without registration under the 1933 Act (other than in connection with the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an affiliate of the Depositor), then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certificate from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and a certificate from such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee (which in the case of the Book-Entry Certificates, the Certificateholder
and the Certificateholder’s prospective transferee shall be deemed to have represented such certification), to the effect that, among other things, the transfer is being made to a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144A.  Any Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer of a Private Certificate shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar 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.


 









 


(c)  No transfer of a Private Certificate or any interest therein shall be made to any Plan, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring such Certificates with “Plan Assets” of a Plan within the meaning of the Department of Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C. F. R. § 2510.3-101 (“Plan Assets”), as certified by such transferee in the form of Exhibit G, unless the Trustee is provided with an Opinion of Counsel for the benefit of the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer and on which they may rely which establishes to the satisfaction of the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer that the purchase of such Certificates is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Servicer,
the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund.  Neither an Opinion of Counsel nor any certification will be required in connection with the (i) the initial transfer of any Private Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) the transfer of any Private Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any Private Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor (in which case, the Transferee thereof shall have deemed to have represented that it is not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets) and the Trustee shall be
entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the Trustee, shall be a written representation) from the Transferor of the status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.


Each beneficial owner of a Mezzanine Certificates or any interest therein shall be deemed to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of that certificate or interest therein, that either (i) it is not a Plan investor, (ii) in the case of each class other than the Class M-11 Certificates and Class M-12 Certificates, it has acquired and is holding such Mezzanine Certificates in reliance on the Underwriters’ Exemption, and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Underwriters’ Exemption, including that the Mezzanine Certificates must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than “BBB-” (or its equivalent) by Moody’s, S&P or Fitch (iii) (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the source of funds used to acquire or hold the certificate or interest therein is an “insurance company general account,” as
such term is defined in PTCE 95-60, and (3) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.


If any Mezzanine Certificate or Private Certificate or any interest therein is acquired or held in violation of the provisions of the preceding two paragraphs, the next preceding permitted beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner of that Certificate retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of any such Certificate or interest therein was effected in violation of the provisions of the preceding two paragraphs shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and the Trust Fund from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by those parties as a result of that acquisition or holding.


 









 


(d)  (i)         Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual 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 Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:



	
            (A)
 	
            Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual 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 Residual Certificate, the Trustee shall require delivery to it, and shall not register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate until its receipt of, an affidavit and agreement (a “Transfer Affidavit and Agreement,” in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2) from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is a Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, that for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, it will endeavor to remain a Permitted
Transferee, and that it has reviewed the provisions of this Section 5.02(d) and agrees to be bound by them.
 
	
            (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 transaction has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected.
 
	
            (D)
 	
            Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (x) to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2 from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate and (y) not to transfer its Ownership Interest unless it provides a Transferor Affidavit (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2) to the Trustee stating that, among other things, it has no actual knowledge that such other Person is not a Permitted Transferee.
 



 


 









 



	
            (E)
 	
            Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the Trustee written notice that it is a “pass-through interest holder” within the meaning of temporary Treasury regulation Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, if it is, or is holding an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a “pass-through interest holder.”
 



(ii)         The Trustee will register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate only if it shall have received the Transfer Affidavit and Agreement and all of such other documents as shall have been reasonably required by the Trustee as a condition to such registration.  In addition, no Transfer of a Residual Certificate shall be made unless the Trustee shall have received a representation letter from the Transferee of such Certificate to the effect that such Transferee is a Permitted Transferee.


(iii)        (A)       If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 5.02(d), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights as holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(d) 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 Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02(d) and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of the rights of the holder of such Residual Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the Trustee shall have the right, without notice to the holder or any prior holder of such Residual Certificate, to sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Trustee on such terms as the Trustee may choose. Such purported Transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver each Residual Certificate in accordance with the instructions of the Trustee. Such purchaser may be the Trustee itself or any Affiliate of the Trustee. The proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which may
include commissions payable to the Trustee or its Affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Trustee 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 Trustee, and the Trustee shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.


(iv)        The Trustee shall make available to the Internal Revenue Service and those Persons specified by the REMIC Provisions all information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, including the information described in Treasury regulations sections 1.860D-1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5) with respect to the “excess inclusions” of such Residual Certificate and (B) as a 


 









result of any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common Trust, partnership, trust, estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate having as among its record holders at any time any Person which is a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be accepted by the Trustee.


(v)        The provisions of this Section 5.02(d) set forth prior to this subsection (v) may be modified, added to or eliminated, provided that there shall have been delivered to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer at the expense of the party seeking to modify, add to or eliminate any such provision 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 of any Class of Certificates; and


(B)        an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, to the effect that such modification of, addition to or elimination of such provisions will not cause any Trust REMIC to cease to qualify as a REMIC and will not cause any Trust REMIC to be subject to an entity-level tax caused by the Transfer of any Residual Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee or a Person other than the prospective transferee to be subject to a REMIC-tax caused by the Transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee.


The Trustee shall forward to the NIMS Insurer a copy of the items delivered to it pursuant to (A) and (B) above.


(e)  Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.11, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated Transferee or Transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class of a like aggregate Percentage Interest.


(f)   At the option of the Holder thereof, any Certificate may be exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class with authorized denominations and a like aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of such Certificate to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.11. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, the Certificates 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) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.  In addition, (i) with respect to each Class R
Certificate, the holder thereof may exchange, in the manner described above, such Class R Certificate for two separate certificates, each representing such holder’s respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-I Interest and the Class R-II Interest, respectively, in each case that was evidenced by the Class R Certificate being 


 









exchanged and (ii) with respect to each Class R-X Certificate, the holder thereof may exchange, in the manner described above, such Class R-X Certificate for two separate certificates, each  representing such holder’s respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-III Interest and the Class R-IV Interest, respectively, in each case that was evidenced by the Class R-X Certificate being exchanged.


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


(h)  All Certificates surrendered for transfer and exchange shall be canceled and destroyed by the Trustee in accordance with its customary procedures.



	
            SECTION 5.03.
 	
            Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
 



If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee, or the Trustee receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer such security or indemnity as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence of actual knowledge by the Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser or the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of the same Class and of like denomination and Percentage Interest. 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) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the applicable REMIC created hereunder, 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.
 



The Depositor, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and any agent of any of them 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 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.



	
            SECTION 5.05.
 	
            Certain Available Information.
 



On or prior to the date of the first sale of any Private Certificate to an Independent third party, the Depositor shall provide to the Trustee ten copies of any private placement memorandum or other disclosure document used by the Depositor in connection with the offer and sale of such Certificates. In addition, if any such private placement memorandum or disclosure document is revised, amended or supplemented at any time following the delivery thereof to the Trustee, the Depositor promptly shall inform the Trustee of such event and shall 


 









deliver to the Trustee ten copies of the private placement memorandum or disclosure document, as revised, amended or supplemented. The Trustee shall maintain at its Corporate Trust Office and shall make available free of charge during normal business hours for review by any Holder of a Certificate or any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, originals or copies of the following items: (i) in the case of a Holder or prospective transferee of a Private Certificate, the related private placement memorandum or other disclosure document relating to such Class of Certificates, in the form most recently provided to the Trustee; and (ii) in all cases, (A) this Agreement and any amendments hereof entered into pursuant to Section 11.01, (B) all monthly statements required to be delivered to Certificateholders of the relevant Class pursuant to Section 4.02 since the Closing

THE DEPOSITOR AND THE SERVICER



	
            SECTION 6.01.
 	
            Liability of the Depositor and the Servicer.
 



The Depositor and the Servicer each shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this Agreement upon them in their respective capacities as Depositor and Servicer and undertaken hereunder by the Depositor and the Servicer herein.



	
            SECTION 6.02.
 	
            Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Servicer.
 



Subject to the following paragraph, the Depositor will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. Subject to the following paragraph, the Servicer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a federally chartered savings bank under the laws of the United States. The Depositor and the Servicer each will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.


The Depositor or the Servicer may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, in which case any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor or the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Servicer, shall be the successor of the Depositor or the 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 herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage loans on behalf of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac; and provided further that the Rating Agencies’ ratings of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates in effect immediately prior to
such merger or consolidation will not be qualified, reduced or withdrawn as a result thereof (as evidenced by a letter to such effect from the Rating Agencies).



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



(a)        The Servicer (except the Trustee if it is required to succeed the Servicer hereunder) indemnifies and holds the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and the Depositor harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and the Depositor may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement.  The Servicer shall immediately notify the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and the Depositor if a claim is made that may result in such claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees or related costs, judgments, or any other costs, fees and expenses, and the Servicer shall assume (with the consent 


 









of the Trustee) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and/or the Depositor in respect of such claim.  The provisions of this Section 6.03 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.


(b)        None of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund 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 Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the Servicer pursuant hereto, or against 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, in the case of the
Servicer, a breach of the servicing standard set forth in Section 3.01.  The Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which is, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Servicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with (i) any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense relating to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or any loss, liability or
expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder or (ii) any breach of a representation or warranty by the Originator or any other party regarding the Mortgage Loans.  None of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties under this Agreement and, in its opinion, does not involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that each of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, unless the Depositor or the Servicer acts without the consent of Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights in the case of legal actions initiated by the Depositor or the Servicer, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except 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) shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as and to the extent provided in Section 3.11, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account. The Servicer’s right to indemnity or reimbursement pursuant to this Section shall survive any resignation or termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.04 or 7.01 with respect to any losses,
expenses, costs or 


 









liabilities arising prior to such resignation or termination (or arising from events that occurred prior to such resignation or termination).



	
            SECTION 6.04.
 	
            Limitation on Resignation of the Servicer.
 



Except as otherwise provided herein, the Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (i) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or (ii) upon the satisfaction of the following conditions: 


(a) the Servicer has proposed a successor Servicer to the Depositor and the Trustee in writing and the proposed successor Servicer is reasonably acceptable to each of them;


(b) the proposed successor Servicer is (1) an affiliate of the Trustee that services mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans in the jurisdictions in which the related Mortgaged Properties are located or (2) the proposed successor Servicer has a rating of at least “Above Average” by S&P and either a rating of at least “RPS2” by Fitch or a rating of at least “SQ2” by Moody’s;


(c) S&P, Moody’s and DBRS have confirmed to the Trustee that the appointment of the proposed successor Servicer as the servicer under the this Agreement will not result in the reduction, withdrawal or qualification of the then current ratings of the offered certificates; and


(d) the proposed successor Servicer has a net worth of at least $25,000,000.


A servicer that satisfies each of these conditions is an “Approved Servicer.” 


Any such determination pursuant to the preceding clause (i) permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Servicer and delivered to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer.  No resignation of the Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor Servicer acceptable to the NIMS Insurer shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations under this Agreement.  Any such resignation shall not relieve the Servicer of responsibility for any of the obligations specified in Sections 7.01 and 7.02 as obligations that survive the resignation or termination of the Servicer.


Except as expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Servicer hereunder.  The foregoing prohibition on assignment shall not prohibit the Servicer from designating a Sub-Servicer as payee of any indemnification amount payable to the Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that as provided in Section 3.06 hereof, no Sub-Servicer shall be a third-party beneficiary hereunder and the parties hereto shall not be required to recognize any Sub-Servicer as an indemnitee under this Agreement. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Servicer are transferred to a successor 


 









Servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor Servicer.


The Trustee and the Depositor hereby specifically (i) consent to the pledge and assignment by the Servicer of all of the Servicer’s right, title and interest in, to and under this Agreement to a specified servicing rights pledgee, for the benefit of certain lenders and (ii) in the event of a Servicer resignation, agree that the Servicer or its designee may appoint an Approved Servicer as the successor Servicer; provided that at the time of such appointment, such successor meets the requirements of a successor Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02(a) hereof and agrees to be subject to the terms of this Agreement.  If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Servicer are transferred to a successor Servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor Servicer.



	
            SECTION 6.05.
 	
            Rights of the Depositor in Respect of the Servicer.
 



The Servicer shall afford (and any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that each Sub-Servicer shall afford) the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Servicer (and any such Sub-Servicer) in respect of the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Servicer (and those of any such Sub-Servicer) responsible for such obligations.  Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee its (and any such Sub-Servicer’s) most recent financial statements and such other information relating to the Servicer’s capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement as it possesses (and that any such Sub-Servicer possesses). To the extent such information is not otherwise available to the public, the Depositor, the
NIMS Insurer and the Trustee shall not disseminate any information obtained pursuant to the preceding two sentences without the Servicer’s written consent, except as required pursuant to this Agreement or to the extent that it is appropriate to do so (i) in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies or (ii) pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor and the Trustee or the Trust Fund, and in any case, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall use its best efforts to assure the confidentiality of any such disseminated non-public information.  Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors (absent proof that it is in compliance with applicable law) and the failure of the Servicer
to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.  Nothing in this Section shall require the Servicer to collect, create, collate or otherwise generate any information that it does not generate in its usual course of business.  The Servicer shall not be required to make copies of or ship documents to any party unless provisions have been made for the reimbursement of the costs thereof. The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Servicer under this Agreement or exercise the rights of the Servicer under this Agreement; provided that the Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations under this Agreement by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any 


 









responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.



	
            SECTION 6.06.
 	
            Duties of the Credit Risk Manager.
 



For and on behalf of the Depositor, the Credit Risk Manager will provide reports and recommendations concerning certain delinquent and defaulted Mortgage Loans, and as to the collection of any Prepayment Charges with respect to the Mortgage Loans.  Such reports and recommendations will be based upon information provided to the Credit Risk Manager pursuant to the Credit Risk Management Agreement, and the Credit Risk Manager shall look solely to the Servicer for all information and data (including loss and delinquency information and data) relating to the servicing of the related Mortgage Loans.  Upon any termination of the Credit Risk Manager or the appointment of a successor Credit Risk Manager, the Depositor shall give written notice thereof to the Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and each Rating Agency.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the termination of the Credit Risk Manager
pursuant to this Section shall not become effective until the appointment of a successor Credit Risk Manager.



	
            SECTION 6.07.
 	
            Limitation Upon Liability of the Credit Risk Manager.
 



Neither the Credit Risk Manager, nor any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents shall be under any liability to the Trustee, the Certificateholders or the Depositor for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action made in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, in reliance upon information provided by the Servicer under the Credit Risk Management Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Credit Risk Manager or any such person against liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful malfeasance or bad faith in its performance of its duties.  The Credit Risk Manager and any director, officer, employee, or agent of the Credit Risk Manager 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, and may
rely in good faith upon the accuracy of information furnished by the Servicer pursuant to the applicable Credit Risk Management Agreement in the performance of its duties thereunder and hereunder.



	
            SECTION 6.08.
 	
            Removal of the Credit Risk Manager.
 



The Credit Risk Manager may be removed as Credit Risk Manager by Certificateholders holding not less than 66 2/3% of the Voting Rights in the Trust Fund, in the exercise of its or their sole discretion.  The Certificateholders shall provide written notice of the Credit Risk Manager's removal to the Trustee.  Upon receipt of such notice, the Trustee shall provide written notice to the Credit Risk Manager of its removal, which shall be effective upon receipt of such notice by the Credit Risk Manager.

DEFAULT



	
            SECTION 7.01.
 	
            Servicer Events of Default.
 



(a)        “Servicer Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events:


(i)         any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Trustee for distribution to the Certificateholders any payment (other than an Advance required to be made from its own funds on any Servicer Remittance Date pursuant to Section 4.03) required to be made under the terms of the Certificates and this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee (in which case notice shall be provided by telecopy), or to the Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or


(ii)         any failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer contained in this Agreement, or the breach by the Servicer of any representation and warranty contained in Section 2.05, which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days (or if such failure or breach cannot be remedied within 30 days, then such remedy shall have been commenced within 30 days and diligently pursued thereafter; provided, however, that in no event shall such failure or breach be allowed to exist for a period of greater than 90 days) after the earlier of (i) the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee or to the Servicer, the
Depositor and the Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights and (ii) actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Officer of the Servicer; 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 bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 90 days; or


(iv)        the 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 it or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or


(v)        the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or 


 









reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or



	
            (vi)
 	
            any failure by the Servicer of the Servicer Termination Test; or
 



(vii)       any failure of the Servicer to make any Advance on any Servicer Remittance Date required to be made from its own funds pursuant to Section 4.03 which continues unremedied until 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day following the Servicer Remittance Date.


If a Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (vi) of this Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Servicer Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Depositor or the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights, or at the direction of the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer (and to the Depositor if given by the Trustee or to the Trustee if given by the Depositor), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. If a Servicer Event of Default described in clause (vii) hereof shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer, the Depositor and the NIMS
Insurer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof.  Subject to Section 7.02 hereof, on or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section, and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to execute and deliver, on behalf of and at the expense of the Servicer, 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 Servicer agrees to promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to such notice) provide the Trustee with all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the Servicer’s functions under this Agreement, and to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the transfer within one Business Day to the Trustee for administration by it of all cash amounts which at the time shall be or should have been credited by the Servicer to the Collection Account held by or on behalf of the Servicer, the Distribution Account or any REO Account or Servicing Account held by or on behalf of the Servicer or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property serviced by the Servicer; provided, however, that the Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this
Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of Advances or otherwise, and shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03, notwithstanding any such termination, with respect to events occurring prior to such termination. For purposes of this Section 7.01, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Servicer Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to and working in the Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a 


 









Servicer Event of Default is received by the Trustee and such notice references the Certificates, the Trust Fund or this Agreement.



	
            SECTION 7.02.
 	
            Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
 



(a)        From the time the Servicer (and the Trustee, if notice is sent by the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights or the NIMS Insurer) receives a notice of termination, the Trustee (or such other successor Servicer as is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer) shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein, and all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter shall be assumed by the Trustee (except for any representations or warranties of the Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Section 2.05 (other than with respect to Section 2.05(x)) and the obligation to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant to Section 3.12) by the
terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, the Trustee shall immediately assume the Servicer’s obligations to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.03; provided, further, however, that if the Trustee is prohibited by law or regulation from obligating itself to make advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans, then the Trustee shall not be obligated to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.03; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer’s failure to provide information required by Section 7.01 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee as successor to the Servicer hereunder.  It is understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the transition of servicing obligations is fully effective. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Servicer would
have been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder.  Notwithstanding the above and subject to Section 7.02(b) below, the Trustee if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or if it is prohibited by law from making advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans or if the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights or the NIMS Insurer so request in writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an established mortgage loan servicing institution acceptable to each Rating Agency and the NIMS Insurer and having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000, as the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement.


Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, unless the Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided.  In connection with such appointment and assumption, the successor shall be entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the compensation which the Servicer would otherwise have received pursuant to Section 3.18 (or such other compensation as the Trustee and such successor shall agree, not to exceed the Servicing Fee).  The appointment of a successor Servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen under this Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer to pay any deductible under an insurance policy pursuant to Section 3.14 or to indemnify the NIMS Insurer pursuant to Section 6.03, nor shall any successor Servicer be liable
for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or for any breach by such Servicer of any of 


 









its representations or warranties contained herein or in any related document or agreement.  The Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. All reasonable Servicing Transfer Costs shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs, and if such predecessor Servicer defaults in its obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the successor Servicer or the Trustee (in which case the successor Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the assets of the Trust Fund).


(b)        No appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this Agreement shall be effective until the assumption by the successor of all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities hereunder. In connection with such appointment and assumption described herein, 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 Servicer as such hereunder.  The Depositor, the Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this Agreement or the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided.  


Any successor to the Servicer, including the Trustee, shall during the term of its service as servicer continue to service and administer the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Certificateholders, and maintain in force a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder and a fidelity bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same extent as the Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.14.


(c)        Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, for a period of 30 days following the date on which the Servicer shall have received a notice of a Servicer Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01, or a default under a loan agreement pursuant to Section 6.04 or a Servicer resignation pursuant to Section 6.04, the terminated Servicer or its designee may appoint a successor Servicer that satisfies the eligibility criteria of a successor Servicer set forth above; provided that such successor Servicer agrees to fully effect the servicing transfer within 90 days following the termination of the Servicer and to make all Advances that would otherwise be made by the Trustee under Section 7.01 as of the date of such appointment.  Any proceeds received in connection with the appointment of such successor Servicer shall be the
property of the terminated Servicer or its designee.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Servicer Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(vii), either (i) the Servicer shall remit the amount of the required Advance by 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day following the Servicer Remittance Date or (ii) by 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day following the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall have appointed a successor Servicer that satisfies the eligibility criteria of a successor Servicer set forth above and that has remitted the amount of the required Advance to the Trustee.  If the Servicer fails to adhere to the requirements set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and shall immediately assume the Servicer’s obligations to make Advances.  In no event shall the



 









termination of the Servicer under this Agreement result in any diminution of the Servicer's right to reimbursement for any outstanding Advances or Servicing Advances or accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees due such Servicer at the time of termination.  Reimbursement of unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances and accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees shall be made on a FIFO, loan-by-loan basis.  The Servicer shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03 hereof related to indemnification, notwithstanding any termination hereunder.  


(d)        In connection with the termination or resignation of the Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor Servicer, including the Trustee if the Trustee is acting as successor 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 Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Servicer in causing MERS to revise its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to the successor Servicer as necessary under MERS’ rules and regulations, or (ii) the predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the successor 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 Servicer.  The predecessor Servicer shall file or cause to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office.  The predecessor 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 Section 7.02(d).



	
            SECTION 7.03.
 	
            Notification to Certificateholders.
 



(a)        Upon any termination of the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 above or any appointment of a successor to the Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 above, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Credit Risk Manager and the NIMS Insurer and to the Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.


(b)        Not later than the later of 60 days after the occurrence of any event, which constitutes or which, with notice or lapse of time or both, would constitute a Servicer Event of Default or five days after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee becomes aware of the occurrence of such an event, the Trustee shall transmit by mail to the Credit Risk Manager, the NIMS Insurer and to all Holders of Certificates notice of each such occurrence, unless such default or Servicer Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.



	
            SECTION 7.04.
 	
            Waiver of Servicer Events of Default.
 



The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights (with the consent of the NIMS Insurer) evidenced by all Classes of Certificates affected by any default or Servicer Event of Default hereunder may waive such default or Servicer Event of Default; provided, however, that a default or Servicer Event of Default under clause (i) or (vii) of Section 7.01 may be waived only by all of the Holders of the Regular Certificates (with the consent of the NIMS Insurer). Upon any such waiver of a default or Servicer Event of Default, such default or Servicer 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 Servicer Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.  Notice of any such waiver shall be given by the Trustee to the Rating Agencies and the NIMS Insurer.



	
            SECTION 7.05.
 	
            Survivability of Servicer Liabilities.
 



Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon termination of the Servicer hereunder, any liabilities of the Servicer which accrued prior to such termination shall survive such termination.



 










ARTICLE VIII


 


CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE



	
            SECTION 8.01.
 	
            Duties of Trustee
 



The Trustee prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default and after the curing of all Servicer Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement.  During a Servicer Event of Default, 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 person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs.  Any permissive right of the Trustee enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.


The Trustee upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to it, 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; provided, however, that the Trustee will not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any such resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents or other instruments.  If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, it shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to its satisfaction, it will provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders and the NIMS Insurer.


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 misconduct; provided, however, that:


(i)         Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default, and after the curing of all such Servicer 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 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 that conform to the requirements of this Agreement;


(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 it unless it shall be proved that it 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 NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to it or exercising any trust or power conferred upon it under this Agreement; and


(iv)  The Trustee shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any default or Master Servicer Event of Termination unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office obtains actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee receives written notice of such failure from the Depositor, the Servicer or the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Voting Rights.


The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement



	
            SECTION 8.02.
 	
            Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee
 	
             

	
             
	
      (a)    Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
 	
             
 
					



(i)   The Trustee may request and rely upon 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 reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;


   (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;

a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’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 a Servicer Event of Default hereunder and after the curing of all Servicer 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 requested in writing to do so by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% 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 such Certificateholders, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such
expense, or liability from such Certificateholders or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, as a condition to taking any such action;


(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 not be responsible for any negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Custodian or any such agents or attorneys appointed by it with due care; and


(vii)    The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any loss resulting from the investment of funds held in the Collection Account at the direction of the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12.


(b)  All rights of action under this Agreement or under any of the Certificates, enforceable by the Trustee, may be enforced by it without the possession of any of the Certificates, or the production thereof at the trial or other proceeding relating thereto, and any such suit, action or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its name for the benefit of all the Holders of such Certificates, subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

            SECTION 8.06.
 	
            Eligibility Requirements for Trustee
 



The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or an association (other than the Depositor, the Originator, the Seller, the Servicer or any Affiliate of the foregoing) organized and doing business under the laws of any 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 (or a member of a bank holding company whose capital and 


 









surplus is at least $50,000,000) and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority.  If such corporation or association publishes reports of conditions at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of conditions 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.



	
            SECTION 8.07.
 	
            Resignation and Removal of the Trustee
 



The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer and the Certificateholders. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor trustee acceptable to the NIMS Insurer by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and to the successor trustee.  A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Servicer by the Depositor.  If no successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.


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 the NIMS Insurer, 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 or the NIMS Insurer may remove the and appoint a successor trustee acceptable to the NIMS Insurer by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and to the successor trustee. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders, the Trustee and the Servicer by the Depositor.


The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights (or the NIMS Insurer upon failure of the Trustee to perform its obligations hereunder) may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee acceptable to the NIMS Insurer 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. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Servicer by the Depositor.


Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee, pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 8.08.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Trustee is unable to continue to perform its obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement prior to the appointment of a successor, the Trustee shall be obligated to perform such obligations until a new trustee is appointed. Such performance shall be without 


 









prejudice to any claim by a party hereto or beneficiary hereof resulting from the Trustee’s breach of its obligations hereunder.



	
            SECTION 8.08.
 	
            Successor Trustee
 



Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and 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, 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 Mortgage Files and related documents and statements to the extent held by it hereunder, as well as all moneys, held by it hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at the time held by the Custodian, which Custodian shall become the agent of any successor trustee hereunder), and the
Depositor 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.


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 and the appointment of such successor trustee shall not result in a downgrading of any Class of Certificates by any Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency.


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 association into which either the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation or association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or association succeeding to the business of the Trustee shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder; provided such corporation or 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.



	
            SECTION 8.10.
 	
            Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
 



Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of REMIC I or property securing the same may at the time be located, the Trustee shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee and the 


 









NIMS Insurer to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of REMIC I, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to REMIC I, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable.  Any such co-trustee or separate trustee shall be subject to the written approval of the NIMS Insurer.  If the NIMS Insurer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request to do so, 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.


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 by the Trustee (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to a defaulting 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 REMIC I 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.


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 trust 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 and a copy thereof given to the NIMS Insurer.


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 or co-trustee.



	
            SECTION 8.11.
 	
            Appointment of Office or Agency; Appointment of Custodian.
 



The Trustee will appoint an office or agency in the City of St. Paul, Minnesota where the Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and presented for final distribution, and where notices and demands to or upon the Trustee in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be served.


 









 


The Trustee may, with the consent of the Depositor, the Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, appoint the Custodian to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee.  The appointment of the Custodian may at any time be terminated and a substitute Custodian appointed therefor upon the reasonable request of the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer to the Trustee, the consent to which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  The Trustee initially appoints U.S. Bank National Association as Custodian, and the Depositor and the Servicer each consent to such appointment.  The Custodian shall be a depository institution or trust company subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have combined capital and surplus of at least $10,000,000 and shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File.  Subject to Section 8.02(a), in no event shall
the appointment of the Custodian diminish the obligations of the Trustee hereunder.



	
            SECTION 8.12.
 	
            Representations and Warranties.
 



The Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Servicer and the Depositor, as of the Closing Date, that:


(i)   It is a national banking association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the United States of America.


(ii)   The execution and delivery of this Agreement by it, and the performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement by it, will not violate its articles of association or bylaws or constitute a default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of, any material agreement or other instrument to which it is a party or which is applicable to it or any of its assets.


(iii)  It has the full power and authority to enter into and consummate all transactions contemplated by this Agreement, has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement, and has duly executed and delivered this Agreement.


(iv)  This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of it, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof, subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (B) general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.


(v)  It is not in violation of, and its execution and delivery of this Agreement and its performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement will not constitute a violation of, any law, any order or decree of any court or arbiter, or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state or local governmental or regulatory authority, which violation, in its good faith and reasonable judgment, is likely to affect materially and adversely either the ability of it to perform its obligations under this Agreement or its financial condition.


 









 


(vi)  No litigation is pending or, to the best of its knowledge, threatened against it, which would prohibit it from entering into this Agreement or, in its good faith reasonable judgment, is likely to materially and adversely affect either the ability of it to perform its obligations under this Agreement or its financial condition.


 









 


ARTICLE IX


 


TERMINATION


SECTION 9.01.       Termination Upon Repurchase or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.


(a)        Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee (other than the indemnification obligations of the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.03 and of the Servicer to make remittances to the Trustee and the Trustee to make payments in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests and the Classes of Certificates as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders and the deposit of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required hereunder to be so paid or deposited on the Distribution Date coinciding with or following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase by the Terminator (as defined below) on a servicing retained basis of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the final payment or other
liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC I; provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (a) 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 or (b) the Latest Possible Maturity Date as defined in the Preliminary Statement.  Subject to Section 3.10 hereof, the purchase by the Terminator of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I shall be at a price (the “Termination Price”) equal to the greater of (i) the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and the appraised value of any REO Properties, such appraisal to be conducted by an Independent appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Terminator and the Trustee in their reasonable discretion and (ii) the fair market value of all of the
assets of REMIC I (as determined by the Terminator and the Trustee, as of the close of business on the third Business Day next preceding the date upon which notice of any such termination is furnished to Certificateholders pursuant to the third paragraph of this Section 9.01) in each case, plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the weighted average of the Mortgage Rates through the end of the Due Period preceding the final Distribution Date, plus unreimbursed Advances, Servicing Advances, any unpaid Servicing Fees and Trustee Fees allocable to such Mortgage Loans and REO Properties, any accrued and unpaid Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount; provided, however, such option may only be exercised if (i) the Termination Price is sufficient to pay all interest accrued on, as well as amounts necessary to retire the principal balance of, each class of notes issued pursuant to the Indenture and any remaining amounts owed to the trustee under the Indenture and the NIMS Insurer on the date such
notes are retired and (ii) the fair market value of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties determined as described above is at least equal to the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans (after giving effect to scheduled payments of principal due during the related Due Period, to the extent received or advanced, and unscheduled collections of principal received during the related Prepayment Period) and the appraised value of the REO Properties.


(b)        The majority holder of the Class CE Certificates (so long as such holder is not the Seller or an affiliate of the Seller) or if such majority holder fails to exercise such right, 


 









the Servicer (or if the Servicer fails to exercise such right, the NIMS Insurer) shall have the right (the party exercising such right, the “Terminator”), to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph no later than the Determination Date in the month immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which the Certificates will be retired; provided, however, that the Terminator may elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) above only if the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund at the time of such election is reduced to less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.  By acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the Holder of the
Residual Certificates agrees for so long as any notes insured by the NIMS Insurer and secured by all or a portion of the Class CE, Class P or Class R Certificates are outstanding, in connection with any termination hereunder, to assign and transfer any amounts in excess of par, and to the extent received in respect of such termination, to pay any such amounts to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in the event the optional termination right is exercised by the majority holder of the Class CE Certificates pursuant to this Section 9.01, the Servicer shall remain as the servicer of record of the Mortgage Loans unless the Servicer was terminated prior to the exercise of such optional termination right.


(c)        Notice of the liquidation of the Certificates shall be given promptly by the Trustee by letter to Certificateholders and the NIMS Insurer mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property by the Terminator, not earlier than the 10th day and not later than the 20th day of the month next preceding the month of the final distribution on the Certificates or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or before the Determination Date in such month, in each case specifying (i) the Distribution Date upon which the Trust Fund will terminate and the final payment in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests and the Certificates will be made upon presentation and
surrender of the related Certificates at the office of the Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment, (iii) that no interest shall accrue in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests or the Certificates from and after the Accrual Period relating to the final Distribution Date therefor and (iv) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Trustee. In the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I by the Terminator, the Terminator shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account not later than the last Business Day of the month next preceding the month of the final distribution on the Certificates an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Termination Price.  The Trustee shall remit to the Servicer from
such funds deposited in the Distribution Account (i) any amounts which the Servicer would be permitted to withdraw and retain from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11 and (ii) any other amounts otherwise payable by the Trustee to the Servicer from amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in each case prior to making any final distributions pursuant to Section 10.01(d) below.  Upon certification to the Trustee by the Terminator of the making of such final deposit, the Trustee shall promptly release to the Terminator the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans, and the Trustee shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments necessary to effectuate such transfer.


 









 


(d)        Upon presentation of the Certificates by the Certificateholders on the final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its Certificates the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01 in respect of the Certificates so presented and surrendered.  Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates being retired on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust and credited to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders.  If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in
such notice, the Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto.  If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates.  The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in the Trust Fund.  If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to UBS Securities LLC, all such amounts, and all rights of non-tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease.  No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder
on any amount held in trust by the Trustee as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 9.01.  Any such amounts held in trust by the Trustee shall be held in an Eligible Account and the Trustee may direct any depository institution maintaining such account to invest the funds in one or more Permitted Investments.  All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in such accounts held in trust by the Trustee shall be for the benefit of the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee shall deposit in such account the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon the realization of such loss.


Immediately following the deposit of funds in trust hereunder in respect of the Certificates, the Trust Fund shall terminate.



	
            SECTION 9.02.
 	
            Additional Termination Requirements.
 



(a)        In the event that the Terminator purchases all the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property or the final payment on or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC I pursuant to Section 9.01, the Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, unless the Trustee and the Servicer have received an Opinion of  Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall be at the expense of the Terminator (or in connection with a termination resulting from the final payment on or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC I, which Opinion of Counsel shall be at the expense of the person seeking nonadherence to the following additional requirements but which in no event shall be at the expense of the Trust Fund or, unless it is the person seeking nonadherence
to the following additional requirements, the Servicer or the  Trustee), to the effect that the failure of REMIC I to comply with such additional requirements of this Section 9.02 will not (A) result in the imposition on the Trust Fund of taxes 


 









on “prohibited transactions,” as described in Section 860F of the Code, or (B) cause REMIC I to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding:


(i)   The Trustee shall specify the first day in the 90-day liquidation period in a statement attached to each Trust REMIC’s final Tax Return pursuant to Treasury regulation Section 1.860F-1 and shall satisfy all requirements of a qualified liquidation under Section 860F of the Code and any regulations thereunder, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel obtained at the expense of the Terminator;


(ii)   During 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 all of the assets of REMIC I to the Terminator for cash; and


(iii)  At the time of the making of the final payment on the Certificates, the Trustee shall distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed or credited, to the Holders of the Residual Certificates all cash on hand in the Trust Fund (other than cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust Fund shall terminate at that time.


(b)        At the expense of the Terminator, the Depositor shall prepare or cause to be prepared the documentation required in connection with the adoption of a plan of liquidation of each Trust REMIC pursuant to this Section 9.02.


(c)        By their acceptance of Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby agree to authorize the Trustee to specify the 90-day liquidation period for each Trust REMIC, which authorization shall be binding upon all successor Certificateholders.

The holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the Residual Certificates shall be
designated, in the manner provided under Treasury Regulations Section 1.860F-4(d) and Treasury Regulations Section 301.6231(a)(7)-1, as the tax matters person of the related REMIC created hereunder.  By their acceptance thereof, the holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the Residual Certificates hereby agrees to irrevocably appoint the Trustee or an Affiliate as its agent to perform all of the duties of the tax matters person for the Trust Fund.


(d)        The Trustee shall prepare, sign and file all of the Tax Returns (including Form 8811, which must be filed within 30 days following the Closing Date) in respect of each Trust REMIC.  The expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Trustee without any right of reimbursement therefor.


 









 


(e)        The Trustee shall perform on behalf of each Trust REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority. Among its other duties, as required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other such compliance guidance, the Trustee shall provide (i) to any Transferor of a Residual Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, (ii) 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 and market discount or premium (using the
Prepayment Assumption as required) 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 Trust REMIC.  The Depositor shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee, within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Trustee reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes as to the valuations and issue prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flow of the Certificates.


(f)         The Trustee shall take such action and shall cause each Trust REMIC to take such action as shall be necessary to create or maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions.  The Trustee shall not take any action or cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer has received an Opinion of
Counsel, addressed to the Trustee (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action but in no event at the expense of the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to any Trust REMIC, endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax, nor shall the Servicer take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action; provided that the Servicer may conclusively rely on such Opinion of Counsel and shall incur no liability for its action or failure to act in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel.  In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any Trust REMIC or the respective assets of each, or causing any Trust REMIC to take any action, which is not contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer will
consult with the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or its designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any Trust REMIC and the Servicer shall not take any such action or cause any Trust REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur; provided that the Servicer may conclusively rely on such writing and shall incur no liability for its action or failure to act in accordance with such writing.  The Trustee or the NIMS Insurer 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 permitted by this Agreement, but in no event shall such cost be an expense of the Trustee.  At all times as may be required by the Code, the Trustee will ensure that substantially all of the assets of 


 









REMIC I will consist of “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, to the extent such obligations are within the Trustee’s control and not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.


(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 the “net income from foreclosure property” of such REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to any such REMIC after the Startup Day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall be charged (i) to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Article X, (ii) to the Servicer pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Servicer of any of its obligations under Article III or this Article X,
or (iii) against amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account and shall be paid by withdrawal therefrom.


(h)        On or before April 15th of each calendar year, commencing April 15, 2005, the Trustee shall deliver to each Rating Agency and the NIMS Insurer an Officer’s Certificate of the Trustee stating the Trustee’s compliance with this Article X (without regard to any action taken by any party other than the Trustee).


(i)          The Trustee shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to each Trust REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.


(j)          Following the Startup Day, neither the Servicer nor the Trustee shall accept any contributions of assets to any Trust REMIC other than in connection with any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in accordance with Section 2.03 unless it shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in the Trust Fund will not cause the related REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject such REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances.


(k)        Neither  the Trustee nor the Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which any Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit either REMIC 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.



	
            SECTION 10.02.
 	
            Prohibited Transactions and Activities.
 



None of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the 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 REMIC I, (iii) the termination of REMIC I pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or III of this Agreement), nor acquire any assets for any Trust REMIC (other than REO Property acquired in 


 









respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan), nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the Distribution Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any Trust REMIC after the Closing Date (other than a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in accordance with Section 2.03), unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer (at the expense of the party seeking to cause such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution but in no event at the expense of the Trustee) that such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution will not (a) affect adversely the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) cause any Trust REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.



	
            SECTION 10.03.
 	
            Servicer and Trustee Indemnification.
 



(a)        In the event that any Trust REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to (i) the negligent performance by the Trustee of its duties and obligations set forth herein or (ii) any state, local or franchise taxes imposed upon the Trust Fund as a result of the location of the Trustee or any co-trustee, the Trustee shall indemnify the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer and the Trust Fund against any and all Losses resulting from such negligence, including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees imposed on or incurred as a result of a breach of the Trustee’s or any co-trustee’s covenants; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be liable for any such Losses
attributable to the action or inaction of the Servicer, the Depositor or the Holder of such Residual Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the Trustee has relied.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Trustee have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Trustee of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates).


(b)        In the event that any Trust REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to (i) the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein or (ii) any state, local or franchise taxes imposed upon the Trust Fund as a result of the location of the Servicer or any sub-servicer, the Servicer shall indemnify the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and the Trust Fund against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from such negligence, including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees imposed on or incurred as a result of a breach of the Servicer’s or any sub-servicer’s covenants;
provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Holder of such Residual Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the Servicer has relied.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.  


 









Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates).

This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the NIMS Insurer and without the consent of any of the Certificateholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or defect, (ii) to correct, modify or supplement any provisions herein (including to give effect to the expectations of Certificateholders), or (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement; provided that such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder as evidenced by either (i) an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer or (ii) confirmation from the Rating Agencies, delivered to the Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, that such amendment will not result
in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates.  No amendment shall be deemed to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder who shall have consented thereto, and no Opinion of Counsel shall be required to address the effect of any such amendment on any such consenting Certificateholder.


This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee with the consent of the NIMS Insurer and the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of any Class of Certificates (as evidenced by either (i) an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer or (ii)
confirmation from the Rating Agencies, delivered to the Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer,  that such action will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates) in a manner, other than as described in (i), or (iii) modify the consents required by the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii) without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates then outstanding.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 11.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof shall be entitled to Voting Rights with respect to matters affecting such Certificates.


Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the NIMS Insurer shall consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the NIMS Insurer to the effect that such amendment will not result in the imposition of any tax on any Trust REMIC pursuant to the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.


 









 


Promptly after the execution of any such amendment the Trustee shall furnish a copy of such amendment to each Certificateholder and make available to each Certificateholder and the NIMS Insurer.


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.


The cost of any Opinion of Counsel to be delivered pursuant to this Section 11.01 shall be borne by the Person seeking the related amendment, but in no event shall such Opinion of Counsel be an expense of the Trustee.


The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to enter into any amendment pursuant to this Section that affects its rights, duties and immunities under this Agreement or otherwise.

No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as expressly provided for 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 any 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.


 









 


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 entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights 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, for 15 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 is understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatsoever by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of such Certificates, 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 equal, ratable and common benefit of all Certificateholders.  For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

            SECTION 11.09.
 	
            Grant of Security Interest.
 



It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee, be, and be construed as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor and not a pledge of the Mortgage Loans to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the aforementioned intent of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Depositor, then, (a) it is the express intent of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee to secure a debt or other obligation of the Depositor and (b)(1) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the Uniform Commercial Code as in effect from time to time in the State of New York; (2) the conveyance provided for in Section 2.01 hereof shall be
deemed to be a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee of a security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and all amounts payable to the holders of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts, other than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (3) the obligations secured by such security agreement shall be deemed to be all of the Depositor’s obligations under this Agreement, including the obligation to provide to the Certificateholders the benefits of this Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Fund; and (4) 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, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Accordingly, 


 









the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other property described in clause (2) of the preceding sentence, for the purpose of securing to the Trustee the performance by the Depositor of the obligations described in clause (3) of the preceding sentence. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto intend the conveyance pursuant to Section 2.01 to be a true, absolute and unconditional sale of the Mortgage Loans and assets constituting the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee.



	
            SECTION 11.010.
 	
            Third Party Rights.
 



The NIMS Insurer shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement to the same extent as if it were a party hereto, and shall have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.






 









 


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee have caused their names to be signed hereto by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, in each case as of the day and year first above written.

The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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






 









 


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

MORTGAGE ASSET SECURITIZATION TRANSACTIONS, INC.


THIS CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT AN OBLIGATION OF OR INTEREST IN MORTGAGE ASSET SECURITIZATION TRANSACTIONS, INC., THE SERVICER, THE TRUSTEE OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES. NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS ARE GUARANTEED BY ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE UNITED STATES.


This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-2 Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class A-2 Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Mortgage Asset Securitization Transactions, Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), the Servicer and 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, distributions 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 (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class A-2 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.


All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class A-2 Certificates the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of which is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-2 Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail 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
by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and 


 









 


only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.


The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall equal a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (ii) the related Net WAC Rate for such Distribution Date.


This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.


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. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.


The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. 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 this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but 


 









 


the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.


The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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






 









 


 


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

The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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

The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.

NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS ARE GUARANTEED BY ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE UNITED STATES.

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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






 









 


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

The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class M-4 Certificates the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of which is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M-4 Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail 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
by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.


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. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.


The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. 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 this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same 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 of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.


The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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

The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class M-7 Certificates the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of which is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M-7 Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail 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
by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and 


 









 


only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.


The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall equal a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (ii) the related Net WAC Rate for such Distribution Date.


This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.


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. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.


The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. 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 this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.


 









 


The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same 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 of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.


The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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

The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class M-10 Certificates the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of which is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M-10 Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail 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
by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and 


 









 


only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.


The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall equal a rate per annum equal to the lesser of (i) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (ii) the related Net WAC Rate for such Distribution Date.


This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.


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. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.


The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. 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 this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.


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


No transfer of this Certificate to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.


 









 


The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same 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 of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.


The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions 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 (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class CE Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.


All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class CE Certificates the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of which is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of the Class CE Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail 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 by
the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and 


 









 


only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.


This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.


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. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.


The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. 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 this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.


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


No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer
may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion of Counsel 


 









 


shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer in their respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the Depositor or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer 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 to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.


The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same 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 of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.


The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


 









 


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






 









 


 


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

MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE


evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in a portion of a Trust Fund (the “Trust Fund”) consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one- to four-family, fixed-rate and adjustable-rate, first and second lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”) formed and sold by


MORTGAGE ASSET SECURITIZATION TRANSACTIONS, INC.


THIS CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT AN OBLIGATION OF OR INTEREST IN MORTGAGE ASSET SECURITIZATION TRANSACTIONS, INC., THE SERVICER, THE TRUSTEE OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES. NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS ARE GUARANTEED BY ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE UNITED STATES.


This certifies that UBS Securities LLC is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (as specified above) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Mortgage Asset Securitization Transactions, Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), the Servicer and 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, distributions 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 (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class R Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.


All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class R Certificates the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of which is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of the Class R Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail 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 by
the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and 


 









 


only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.


This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.


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. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.


The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. 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 this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.


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


No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer
may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer in their 


 









 


respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer 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 to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.


The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same 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 of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.


Prior to registration of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this Certificate, the proposed transferee shall provide to the Trustee (i) an affidavit to the effect that such transferee is any Person other than a Disqualified Organization or the agent (including a broker, nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, and (ii) a certificate that acknowledges that (A) the Class R Certificates have been designated as a residual interest in a REMIC, (B) it will include in its income a pro rata share of the net income of the Trust Fund and that such income may be an “excess inclusion,” as defined in the Code, that, with certain exceptions, cannot be offset by other losses or benefits from any tax exemption, and (C) it expects to have the financial means to satisfy all of its tax obligations including those relating to holding
the Class R Certificates. Notwithstanding the registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or an agent (including a broker, nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, such registration shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Person shall not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose, including, but not limited to, the receipt of distributions in respect of this Certificate.


The Holder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, shall be deemed to have consented to the provisions of Section 5.02 of the Agreement and to any amendment of the Agreement deemed necessary by counsel of the Depositor to ensure that the transfer of this Certificate to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee or any other Person will not cause the Trust Fund to cease to qualify as a REMIC or cause the imposition of a tax upon the REMIC.


 









 


The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee  nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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






 









 


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

MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE


evidencing a beneficial ownership interest in a portion of a Trust Fund (the “Trust Fund”) consisting primarily of a pool of conventional one- to four-family, fixed-rate and adjustable-rate, first and second lien mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”) formed and sold by


MORTGAGE ASSET SECURITIZATION TRANSACTIONS, INC.


THIS CERTIFICATE DOES NOT REPRESENT AN OBLIGATION OF OR INTEREST IN MORTGAGE ASSET SECURITIZATION TRANSACTIONS, INC., THE SERVICER, THE TRUSTEE OR ANY OF THEIR RESPECTIVE AFFILIATES. NEITHER THIS CERTIFICATE NOR THE UNDERLYING MORTGAGE LOANS ARE GUARANTEED BY ANY AGENCY OR INSTRUMENTALITY OF THE UNITED STATES.


This certifies that UBS Securities LLC is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (as specified above) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Mortgage Asset Securitization Transactions, Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), the Servicer and 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, distributions 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 (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class R-X Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.


All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date and is the registered owner of Class R-X Certificates the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of which is in excess of the lesser of (i) $5,000,000 or (ii) two-thirds of the aggregate initial Certificate Principal Balance of the Class R-X Certificates, or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail 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
by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and 


 









 


only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.


This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates of the Series specified on the face hereof (herein called the “Certificates”) and representing a Percentage Interest in the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.


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. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.


The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. 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 this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.


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


No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder's prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer
may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer in their 


 









 


respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder's prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification. Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Servicer 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 to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate shall be made except in accordance with Section 5.02(c) of the Agreement.


The Certificates are issuable in fully registered form only without coupons in Classes and denominations representing Percentage Interests specified in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations evidencing the same 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 of Certificates, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.


Prior to registration of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this Certificate, the proposed transferee shall provide to the Trustee (i) an affidavit to the effect that such transferee is any Person other than a Disqualified Organization or the agent (including a broker, nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, and (ii) a certificate that acknowledges that (A) the Class R-X Certificates have been designated as a residual interest in a REMIC, (B) it will include in its income a pro rata share of the net income of the Trust Fund and that such income may be an “excess inclusion,” as defined in the Code, that, with certain exceptions, cannot be offset by other losses or benefits from any tax exemption, and (C) it expects to have the financial means to satisfy all of its tax obligations including those relating to
holding the Class R-X Certificates. Notwithstanding the registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale or other disposition of this Certificate to a Disqualified Organization or an agent (including a broker, nominee or middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, such registration shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Person shall not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose, including, but not limited to, the receipt of distributions in respect of this Certificate.


The Holder of this Certificate, by its acceptance hereof, shall be deemed to have consented to the provisions of Section 5.02 of the Agreement and to any amendment of the Agreement deemed necessary by counsel of the Depositor to ensure that the transfer of this Certificate to any Person other than a Permitted Transferee or any other Person will not cause the Trust Fund to cease to qualify as a REMIC or cause the imposition of a tax upon the REMIC.


 









 


The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee nor any such agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.


The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement. The exercise of such right will effect early
retirement of the Certificates; however, such right to purchase is subject to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans at the time of purchase being less than 10% of the aggregate principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date.


The recitals contained herein shall be taken as statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness.


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






 









 


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

This is a Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (this “Agreement”), dated April 26, 2005, among UBS Real Estate Securities Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”), Mortgage Asset Securitization Transactions, Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Purchaser”) and WMC Mortgage Corp., a California corporation (the “Originator”).


 


Preliminary Statement


 


The Seller intends to sell the Mortgage Loans (as hereinafter identified) and the Cap Contracts to the Purchaser on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.  The Purchaser intends to deposit the Mortgage Loans into a mortgage pool comprising the Trust Fund.  The Trust Fund will be evidenced by a single series of mortgage pass-through certificates designated as Series 2005-WMC1 (the “Certificates”).  The Certificates will consist of twenty-one classes of certificates. The Certificates will be issued pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement for Series 2005-WMC1, dated as of April 1, 2005 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among the Depositor as depositor, Ocwen Federal Bank FSB as servicer (the  “Servicer”) and U.S. Bank National Association as trustee (the “Trustee”).  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein
shall have the meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


The parties hereto agree as follows:


 


SECTION 1.    Agreement to Purchase. The Seller agrees to sell and the Purchaser agrees to purchase, on or before April 29, 2005 (the “Closing Date”), certain fixed-rate and adjustable-rate conventional, one- to four-family, residential mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), having an aggregate principal balance as of the close of business on April 1, 2005, (the “Cut-off Date”) of approximately $910,000,141.46 (the “Closing Balance”), after giving effect to all payments due on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date, whether or not received including the right to any Prepayment Charges payable by the related Mortgagors in connection with any Principal Prepayments on the Mortgage Loans.  In addition to the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the Seller will cause the Cap Contracts to be
transferred to the Purchaser.


 


SECTION 2.    Mortgage Loan Schedule. The Purchaser and the Seller have agreed upon which of the mortgage loans owned by the Seller are to be purchased by the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement and the Seller will prepare or cause to be prepared on or prior to the Closing Date a final schedule (the “Closing Schedule”) that shall describe such Mortgage Loans and set forth all of the Mortgage Loans to be purchased under this Agreement, including the Prepayment Charges.  The Closing Schedule will conform to the requirements set forth in this Agreement and to the definitions of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” and “Prepayment Charge Schedule” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, it being understood that for purposes of this Agreement, “Mortgage Loan Schedule” shall refer to the schedule
delivered by the Originator to the Seller.  The Closing Schedule shall be used as the Mortgage Loan Schedule and Prepayment Charge Schedule under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

            Consideration.
 



 


(a)        In consideration for the Mortgage Loans to be purchased hereunder, the Purchaser shall, as described in Section 8, pay to or upon the order of the Seller in immediately available funds an amount (the “Mortgage Loan Purchase Price”) equal to the net sale proceeds of the Certificates.


 


(b)        The Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser shall be entitled to all scheduled payments of principal due after the Cut-off Date, all other payments of principal due and collected after the Cut-off Date, and all payments of interest on the Mortgage Loans allocable to the period after the Cut-off Date.  All scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-off Date and collected after the Cut-off Date shall belong to the Seller.


 


(c)        Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Purchaser will assign all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, together with its rights under this Agreement, to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.


 



	
            SECTION 4.
 	
            Transfer of the Mortgage Loans.
 



 


(a)         Possession of Mortgage Files. The Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Purchaser, without recourse but subject to the terms of this Agreement, all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, including the related Prepayment Charges.  The contents of each Mortgage File not delivered to the Purchaser or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser on or prior to the Closing Date are and shall be held in trust by the Seller for the benefit of the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser. Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each Mortgage Note, the related Mortgage and the other contents of the related Mortgage File is vested in the Purchaser and the ownership of all records and
documents with respect to the related Mortgage Loan prepared by or that come into the possession of the Seller on or after the Closing Date shall immediately vest in the Purchaser and shall be delivered immediately to the Purchaser or as otherwise directed by the Purchaser.


 


(b)        Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents. The Seller will, on or prior to the Closing Date, deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser each of the following documents for each Mortgage Loan:

(ii)         the original Mortgage, noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loan and language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, with evidence of recording thereon, and the original recorded power of attorney, if the Mortgage was executed pursuant to a power of attorney, with evidence of recording thereon;


 









 


 


(iii)        unless the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System, an original Assignment in blank;


 


(iv)        the original recorded Assignment or Assignments showing a complete chain of assignment from the Originator to the Person assigning the Mortgage to the Trustee  (or to MERS, if the Mortgage Loan is registered on the MERS® System and noting the presence of the MIN) as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (iii);


 


(v)        the original or copies of each assumption, modification, written assurance or substitution agreement, if any; and


 


(vi)        the original lender’s title insurance policy, together with all endorsements or riders that were issued with or subsequent to the issuance of such policy, insuring the priority of the Mortgage as a first lien on the Mortgaged Property represented therein as a fee interest vested in the Mortgagor, or in the event such original title policy is unavailable, a written commitment or uniform binder or preliminary report of title issued by the title insurance or escrow company.


 


With respect to a maximum of approximately 1.0% of the Mortgage Loans, by outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, if any original Mortgage Note referred to in Section 4(b)(i) above cannot be located, the obligations of the Seller to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon delivery to the Purchaser of a photocopy of such Mortgage Note, if available, with a lost note affidavit substantially in the form of Exhibit I to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

defect therein, the Originator shall promptly prepare or cause to be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the Originator has performed the duties with respect to any Mortgage Loan referenced in this paragraph in connection with the transfer of such Mortgage Loan to the Seller, references to the Originator in this paragraph shall be deemed to be references to the Seller.


 



 









 


In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS®  System, the Seller further agrees that it will cause, within 30 Business Days after the Closing Date, the MERS® System to indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the Purchaser to the Trustee in accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders by including 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 Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser promptly upon receipt thereof any other original documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents evidencing an assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan.


 


Each original document relating to a Mortgage Loan which is not delivered to the Purchaser or its assignee, transferee or designee, if held by the Seller, shall be so held for the benefit of the Purchaser, its assignee, transferee or designee.


 


(c)        Acceptance of Mortgage Loans. The documents delivered pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof shall be reviewed by the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser at any time before or after the Closing Date (and with respect to each document permitted to be delivered after the Closing Date, within seven days of its delivery) to ascertain that all required documents have been executed and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.


 



(d)        Transfer of Interest in Agreements. The Purchaser has the right to assign its interest under this Agreement, in whole or in part, to the Trustee, as may be required to effect the purposes of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, without the consent of the Seller, and the assignee shall succeed to the rights and obligations hereunder of the Purchaser. Any expense reasonably incurred by or on behalf of the Purchaser or the Trustee in connection with enforcing any obligations of the Seller under this Agreement will be promptly reimbursed by the Seller.


 









 


 


(e)        Examination of Mortgage Files. Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall either (i) deliver in escrow to the Purchaser, or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser for examination, the Mortgage File pertaining to each Mortgage Loan or (ii) make such Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser for examination. Such examination may be made by the Purchaser or the Trustee, and their respective designees, upon reasonable notice to the Seller during normal business hours before the Closing Date and within 60 days after the Closing Date.  If any such person makes such examination prior to the Closing Date and identifies any Mortgage Loans that do not conform to the requirements of the Purchaser as described in this Agreement, such
Mortgage Loans shall be deleted from the Closing Schedule.  The Purchaser may, at its option and without notice to the Seller, purchase all or part of the Mortgage Loans without conducting any partial or complete examination.  The fact that the Purchaser or any person has conducted or has failed to conduct any partial or complete examination of the Mortgage Files shall not affect the rights of the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser to demand repurchase or other relief as provided herein or under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 



	
            SECTION 5.

(v)        This Agreement does not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained herein not misleading.  The written statements, reports and other documents prepared and furnished or to be prepared and furnished by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement or in connection with the transactions contemplated hereby taken in the aggregate do not contain any untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading.


 


(vi)        The Seller is not in violation of, and the execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller and its performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement will not constitute a violation with respect to, any order or decree of any court or any order or regulation of any federal, state, municipal or governmental agency having jurisdiction over the Seller or its assets, which violation might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the condition (financial or otherwise) or the operation of the Seller or its assets or might have consequences that would materially and adversely affect the performance of its obligations and duties hereunder.

(xii)       There is no litigation currently pending or, to the best of the Seller’s knowledge without independent investigation, threatened against the Seller that would reasonably be expected to adversely affect the transfer of the Mortgage Loans, the issuance of the Certificates or the execution, delivery, performance or enforceability of this Agreement, or that would result in a material adverse change in the financial condition of the Seller.


 


(xiii)      As of the Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Seller has no knowledge of any circumstances or conditions with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, the related Mortgagor, the Mortgagor’s credit standing or the related Mortgage that can reasonably be expected to cause the Mortgage Loan to be an unacceptable investment, cause the Mortgage Loan to become delinquent, or adversely affect the value of the Mortgage Loan.


 


(xiv)      As of the Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law; all inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to certificates of occupancy, have been made or obtained from the appropriate authorities.

            SECTION 6. 
 	
            Representations and Warranties of the Originator Relating to the Mortgage Loans.
 



 


The Originator hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser that as to each Mortgage Loan as of the Closing Date or the date on which the Originator transferred the servicing for such Mortgage Loan (the “Servicing Transfer Date”) as noted below:


 


(a)        The information provided to the Seller by the Originator concerning the Mortgage Loans, including any information regarding the Prepayment Charge, and any diskette or other related data tapes, was true and correct in all material respects on the date such information was provided to the Seller;


 


(b)        The Mortgage creates a (A) first lien and first priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Originator to be a first lien (as reflected on 


 









 


the Mortgage Loan Schedule) or (B) second lien and second priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Originator to be a second lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), in either case, in the related Mortgaged Property securing the related Mortgage Note;


 


(c)        The Originator has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds from a party other than the owner of the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by the Mortgage Loan; As of the Servicing Transfer Date, no payment with respect to each Mortgage Loan has been 30 days or more delinquent during the preceding twelve-month period;


 


(d)        As of the Servicing Transfer Date, all taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing were paid;


 


(e)        As of the Servicing Transfer Date, the terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage were not impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments which were recorded to the extent any such recordation was required by law.  As of the Servicing Transfer Date, no instrument of waiver, alteration or modification was executed, and no Mortgagor was released, in whole or in part, from the terms thereof except in connection with an assumption agreement and which assumption agreement was part of the Mortgage File and the terms of which are reflected in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule; the substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the issuer of the title insurance policy, to the extent required by the related policy;


 



(f)         The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any valid right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense, including, without limitation, the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage Note or Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any valid right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and no such right of rescission, set off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto; and as of the Servicing Transfer Date, the Mortgagor was not a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated;


 


(g)        All buildings or other customarily insured improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a Qualified Insurer against loss by fire and hazards of extended coverage, in an amount representing coverage not less than the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loans, and (ii) the greater of (a) either (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Originator to be a first lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) or (2) with respect to each second lien Mortgage Loan, the sum of the outstanding principal balance of the first lien on such Mortgage Loan and the outstanding principal balance of such second lien Mortgage Loan, and (b) an amount such that the proceeds thereof shall be sufficient to prevent the
Mortgagor and/or the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer, but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted under applicable law. As of the Servicing Transfer Date, all such standard hazard policies were in 


 









 


full force and effect and on the date of origination contained a standard mortgagee clause naming the Originator and its successors in interest and assigns as loss payee and such clause is still in effect and all premiums due thereon have been paid.  If required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Mortgage Loan is covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration, in an amount not less than the amount required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended.  Such policy was issued by a Qualified Insurer.  The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and upon the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek
reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor;


 


(h)        Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, truth in lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity, fair housing, or disclosure laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan have been complied with in all material respects;


 


(i)         As of the Servicing Transfer Date, the Mortgage was not satisfied, canceled or subordinated (other than the subordination of any second lien Mortgage Loan to the related first lien), in whole or in part, or rescinded, and the Mortgaged Property was not released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part nor was any instrument executed that would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission. The Originator has not waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, nor has the Originator waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor;


 



(j)         As of the Servicing Transfer Date, the related Mortgage was a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected (A) first lien and first priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which was indicated by the Originator to be a first lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), or (B) second lien and second priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which was indicated by the Originator to be a second lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), in either case, on the Mortgaged Property including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems affixed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements consisting of real property or fixtures made at any time with respect to
the foregoing securing the Mortgage Note’s original principal balance. Such lien is free and clear of all adverse claims, liens and encumbrances having priority over the first lien of the Mortgage subject only to (1) the lien of non delinquent current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording which are acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and either (A) which are referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan, or (B) which do not adversely affect the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property as set forth in such appraisal, (3) other matters which are disclosed in the applicable title commitment or policy, or to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage
or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property and (4) with respect to each 


 









 


Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Originator to be a second lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) a first lien on the Mortgaged Property.  Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected (A) first lien and first priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Originator to be a first lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), or (B) second lien and second priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Originator to be a second lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), in either case, on the property described therein;


 


(k)        The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are original and genuine and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in all respects in accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization and other laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors and by general equitable principles and the Originator has taken all action necessary to transfer such rights of enforceability to the Seller.  All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage.  The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties. No fraud, error, misrepresentation, gross negligence or similar occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken
place on the part of the Originator or the Mortgagor, or, on the part of any other party involved in the origination of the Mortgage Loan.  The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder, and any and all requirements as to completion of any on site or off site improvements and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with.  All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid or are in the process of being paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage;


 



(l)         Either the Mortgagor is a natural person or the Mortgagor is an inter-vivos trust acceptable to Fannie Mae.  With respect to each inter-vivos trust, holding title to the Mortgaged Property in such trust will not diminish any rights as a creditor including the right to full title to the Mortgaged Property in the event foreclosure proceedings are initiated;


 


(m)       Each Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy issued by a title insurer acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to the exceptions contained in (j)(1), (2) and (3) above and, with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Originator to be a second lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) clause (4)) the Originator, its successors and assigns, as to the first (or, where applicable, second) priority lien of the Mortgage  in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and, with respect to each Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment
in the Mortgage Rate and Monthly Payment.  Additionally, such policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress to and from the Mortgaged Property.  Where required by applicable state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance.  The Originator, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy.  


 









 


No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the related Mortgage, including the Originator, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy;


 


(n)        As of the Servicing Transfer Date, there was no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and, to the best of Originator’s knowledge, no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration; and neither the Originator nor any prior mortgagee has waived any default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration.  With respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Originator to be a second lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule)  (i) the first lien is in full force and effect, (ii) there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under such first lien mortgage or the related mortgage
note, (iii) to the best of Originator’s knowledge, no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration thereunder, and either (A) the first lien mortgage contains a provision which allows or (B) applicable law requires, the mortgagee under the second lien Mortgage Loan to receive notice of, and affords such mortgagee an opportunity to cure any default by payment in full or otherwise under the first lien mortgage;  


 


(o)        As of the Servicing Transfer Date, there were no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under law could give rise to such liens) affecting the related Mortgaged Property which were or may have been liens prior to or equal to the lien of the related Mortgage, unless insured against by the related title insurance policy;


 



(p)        All improvements subject to the Mortgage which were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property (and wholly within the project with respect to a condominium unit) and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property except those which are insured against by the title insurance policy referred to in clause (m) above and all improvements on the property comply un all material respects with all applicable zoning and subdivision laws and ordinances;


 


(q)        The Mortgage Loan was originated by the Originator or a third-party originator and sold to the Originator.  The Mortgage Loan complies with all the terms, conditions and requirements of the Originator’s Underwriting Standards in effect at the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan, subject to exceptions thereto made in the ordinary course of business.  The Mortgage Notes and Mortgages (exclusive of any riders) are on forms generally acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The Mortgage Loan bears interest at the Mortgage Rate set forth in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule, and Monthly Payments under the Mortgage Note are due and payable on the first day of each month (subject to any grace period set forth in the Mortgage Note).  The Mortgage contains the usual and enforceable provisions of the Originator at the time of origination
for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal amount of the Mortgage Loan if the related Mortgaged Property is sold without the prior consent of the mortgagee thereunder, subject to 


 









 


bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, reorganization and other laws of general application affecting the rights of creditors and by general equitable principles;


 


(r)         As of the Servicing Transfer Date, the Mortgaged Property was not subject to any material damage by waste, fire, earthquake, windstorm, flood or other casualty.  At origination of the Mortgage Loan there was no proceeding pending or scheduled for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property; and as of the Closing Date, the Originator has not received any notice of such a proceeding pending or scheduled, for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property;


 


(s)         The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby.  There is no homestead or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage;


 


(t)         If the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, authorized and duly qualified if required under applicable law to act as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by the Seller to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale or attempted sale after default by the Mortgagor;


 


(u)        The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property signed prior to the final approval of the mortgage loan application by a Qualified Appraiser, who had no interest, direct or indirect, in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and Title XI of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated;


 



(v)        Each of the Originator, any third-party originator, any servicer and any intervening mortgagee which have had any interest in the Mortgage, whether as mortgagee, assignee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) (A) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, and (B) (1) organized under the laws of such state, or (2) qualified to do business in such state, or (3) federal savings and loan associations or national banks or a Federal Home Loan Bank or savings bank having principal offices in such state, or (4) not doing business in such state or (5) not required to be so qualified;


 


(w)       The related Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in (j) above;


 


(x)        The Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required by applicable law with respect to the making of such mortgage loans;


 









 


 


(y)        The Mortgage Loan does not contain (graduated payment( features and does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature;  no Mortgage Loan contains any buydown provisions;


 



	
            (z)
 	
            As of the Servicing Transfer Date, the Mortgagor was not in bankruptcy;
 



 


(aa)       Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than sixty (60) days after the funds were disbursed in connection with the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loans have an original term to maturity of not more than 30 years, with interest payable in arrears on the first day of each month. Each Mortgage Note, other than with respect to a Balloon Mortgage Loan, requires a monthly payment which is sufficient to fully amortize the original principal balance over the original term thereof and to pay interest at the related Mortgage Rate.  With respect to each Balloon Mortgage Loan and Interest-Only Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Note requires a monthly payment which is sufficient to fully amortize the original principal balance over the original term thereof and to pay interest at the related Mortgage Rate and requires a final Monthly Payment
substantially greater than the preceding monthly payment which is sufficient to repay the remained unpaid principal balance of the Balloon Mortgage Loan or the Interest-Only Mortgage Loan, as applicable, as the Due Date of such monthly payment. No Mortgage Loan contains terms or provisions which would result in negative amortization;


 



	
            (bb)
 	
            No Mortgage Loan is subject to a lender-paid mortgage insurance policy;
 



 


(cc)       As to any Mortgage Loan which is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Assignment of Mortgage delivered by the Originator, is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located;


 



(dd)      The Mortgaged Property is located in the state identified in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached single family residence erected thereon, or a townhouse, or a two-to four-family dwelling, or an individual condominium unit in a condominium project, or an individual unit in a planned unit development or a de minimis planned unit development, provided, however, that no residence or dwelling is a single parcel of real property with a cooperative housing corporation erected thereon, or a mobile home.

has been used for commercial purposes (other than a de minimis use);


 


(ee)       Except as set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, none of the Mortgage Loans are subject to a Prepayment Penalty.  For any Mortgage Loan subject to a Prepayment Penalty, the Mortgage Loan Schedule accurately sets forth the term and amount of such Prepayment Penalty;


 


(ff)        As of the Servicing Transfer Date, the Mortgaged Property was lawfully occupied under applicable law, and all inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect to the use

(gg)       If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit or a planned unit development (other than a de minimis planned unit development), or stock in a cooperative housing corporation, such condominium, cooperative or planned unit development project meets the eligibility requirements of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac;

(kk)      No action has been taken or failed to be taken on or prior to the related Closing Date which has resulted or will result in an exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any insurance policy related to a Mortgage Loan (including, without limitation, any exclusions, denials or defenses which would limit or reduce the availability of the timely payment of the full amount of the loss otherwise due thereunder to the insured) whether arising out of actions, representations, errors, omissions, negligence, or fraud, or for any other reason under such coverage;


 


(ll)         Except with respect to each Mortgage Loan identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule as a correspondent loan, the Mortgage Loan was originated by a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance Originator or similar institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority.

SECTION 15. Severability of Provisions. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement that is prohibited or that is held to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement that is prohibited or unenforceable or is held to be void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall, as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction as to any Mortgage Loan shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto
waive any provision of law which prohibits or renders void or unenforceable any provision hereof.


 


SECTION 16. Agreement of Parties.  The Originator, the Seller and the Purchaser each agree to execute and deliver such instruments and take such actions as either of the others may, from time to time, reasonably request in order to effectuate the purpose and to carry out the terms of this Agreement and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 



SECTION 17. Survival. (a) The Seller agrees that the representations, warranties and agreements made by it herein and in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to be relied upon by the Purchaser, notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by the Purchaser or on its behalf, and that the representations, warranties and agreements made by the Seller herein or in any such certificate or other instrument shall survive the delivery of and payment for the Mortgage Loans and shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Mortgage Notes and notwithstanding subsequent termination of this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the Trust Fund. 

 

(b) the Originator agrees that the representations, warranties and agreements made by it herein and in any certificate or other instrument delivered pursuant hereto shall be deemed to be relied upon by the Seller and the Purchaser notwithstanding any investigation heretofore or hereafter made by the Seller or the Purchaser or on the behalf of either of them, and that the representations, warranties and agreements made by the Originator herein or in any such certificate shall continue in full force and effect, notwithstanding subsequent termination of this Agreement, the Pooling and Servicing Agreement or the Trust Fund.


 


SECTION 18.  GOVERNING LAW. THIS AGREEMENT AND THE RIGHTS, DUTIES, OBLIGATIONS AND RESPONSIBILITIES OF THE PARTIES HERETO SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS (OTHER THAN THE CHOICE OF LAW PROVISIONS THEREIN) AND DECISIONS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK. THE PARTIES HERETO INTEND THAT THE PROVISIONS OF SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW SHALL APPLY TO THIS AGREEMENT.


 


 









 


SECTION 19.  Miscellaneous. This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument. This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns. This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof. Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought. The headings in this Agreement are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.


 



It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser as provided in Section 4 hereof be, and be construed as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser and not as a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the aforementioned intent of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of the Seller, then (a) it is the express intent of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller and (b) (1) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; (2) the conveyance provided for in Section 4
hereof shall be deemed to be a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser of a security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and all amounts payable to the holders of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, including without limitation all amounts, other than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested in the Collection Account whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (3) the possession by the Purchaser or its agent of Mortgage Notes, the related Mortgages and such other items of property that constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession” by the secured party for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to the New York Uniform Commercial Code; and (4) 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, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Any assignment of the interest of the Purchaser pursuant to Section 4(d) hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created hereby. The Seller and the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans, 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 and the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.


 


The NIMS Insurer, if any, shall be a third party beneficiary hereof and may enforce the terms hereof as if a party hereto.

As indicated below, the undersigned is the President, Chief Financial Officer, Senior Vice President or other executive officer of the entity purchasing the Certificates (the “Transferee”).2.  In connection with purchases by the Transferee, the Transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933 (“Rule 144A”) because (i) the Transferee owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis $______________________1 in securities (except for the excluded securities referred to below) as of the end of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year (such amount being calculated in accordance with Rule 144A) and (ii) the Transferee satisfies the criteria in the category marked below.

The Transferee is an investment advisor registered under the Investment Advisers Act of 1940.


3.  The term “SECURITIES” as used herein DOES NOT INCLUDE (i) securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee, (ii) securities that are part of an unsold allotment to or subscription by the Transferee, if the Transferee is a dealer, (iii) securities issued or guaranteed by the U.S. or any instrumentality thereof, (iv) bank deposit notes and certificates of deposit, (v) loan participations, (vi) repurchase agreements, (vii) securities owned but subject to a repurchase agreement and (viii) currency, interest rate and commodity swaps.4.  For purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee, the Transferee used the cost of such securities to the Transferee and did not include any of the securities referred to in the preceding paragraph. Further, in determining such aggregate amount, the Transferee may have included securities owned by subsidiaries of the Transferee, but only if such subsidiaries are consolidated with the Transferee in its financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and if the investments of such subsidiaries are managed under the Transferee's direction. However, such securities were not included if the Transferee is a majority-owned, consolidated subsidiary of another enterprise and the Transferee is not itself a reporting company under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934.

the account of a third party that at the time is a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A.

7.  The Transferee will notify each of the parties to which this certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein. Until such notice is given, the Transferee's purchase of the Certificates will constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of such purchase. In addition, if the Transferee is a bank or savings and loan as provided above, the Transferee agrees that it will furnish to such parties updated annual financial statements promptly after they become available.

            COUNTY OF NEW YORK
 	
            )
 



__________________________, being duly sworn, deposes, represents and warrants as follows:

  

                               1.          I am a ______________________ of ____________________________ (the “Owner”) a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of ______________, the record owner of MASTR Asset Backed Securities Trust, Series 2005-WMC1, Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Class [R][R-X] Certificates, (the “Residual Certificates”), on behalf of whom I make this affidavit and agreement.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to which the Residual Certificates were issued.



                               2.          The Owner (i) is and will be a “Permitted Transferee” as of ____________, 20__ and (ii) is acquiring the Residual Certificates for its own account or for the account of another Owner from which it has received an affidavit in substantially the same form as this affidavit.  A “Permitted Transferee” is any person other than a “disqualified organization” or a possession of the United States. For this purpose, a “disqualified organization” means 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.          The Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on transfers of the Residual Certificates to disqualified organizations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 that applies to all transfers of the Residual Certificates after March 31, 1988; (ii) that such tax would be on the transferor or, if such transfer is through an agent (which person includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a non-Permitted Transferee, on the agent; (iii) that the person 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 a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of transfer, such person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false; and (iv) that each of the Residual Certificates may be a “noneconomic residual interest” within
the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations promulgated under 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 is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.


 









 


4.          The Owner is aware of the tax imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding the Residual Certificates if, at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity, a non-Permitted Transferee 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.          The Owner is aware that the Trustee will not register the transfer of any Residual Certificate unless the transferee, or the transferee's agent, delivers to the Trustee, among other things, an affidavit in substantially the same form as this affidavit. 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.         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 Residual Certificates will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by an Owner that is a Permitted Transferee.



	
            7.
 	
            The Owner's taxpayer identification number is _________________.
 



8.         The Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face of the Residual Certificates and the provisions of Section 5.02(d) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the Residual Certificates were issued (in particular, clauses (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) of Section 5.02(d) 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 that the Owner holds such Certificate in violation of Section 5.02(d)); and that the Owner expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such restrictions and provisions.

  

                               9.          The Owner is not acquiring and will not transfer the Residual Certificates in order to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.



                               10.       The Owner anticipates that it will, so long as it holds the Residual Certificates, have sufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by the holder of such Residual Certificates, and hereby represents to and for the benefit of the person from whom it acquired the Residual Certificates that the Owner intends to pay taxes associated with holding such Residual Certificates as they become due, fully understanding that it may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the Residual Certificates.



                               11.       The Owner has no present knowledge that it may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as it holds the Residual Certificates.



                               12.       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.



                               13.       The Owner is not acquiring the Residual Certificates with the intent to transfer the Residual Certificates to any person or entity that will not have sufficient assets to pay 


 









 


any taxes owed by the holder of such Residual Certificates, or that may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding, for so long as the Residual Certificates remain outstanding.


14.       The Owner will, in connection with any transfer that it makes of the Residual Certificates, obtain from its transferee the representations required by Section 5.02(d) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the Residual Certificate were issued and will not consummate any such transfer if it knows, or knows facts that should lead it to believe, that any such representations are false.

  

                               15.       The Owner will, in connection with any transfer that it makes of the Residual Certificates, deliver to the Trustee an affidavit, which represents and warrants that it is not transferring the Residual Certificates to impede the assessment or collection of any tax and that it has no actual knowledge that the proposed transferee: (i) has insufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by such transferee as holder of the Residual Certificates; (ii) may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as the Residual Certificates remains outstanding; and (iii) is not a “Permitted Transferee”.



                               16.       The Owner is a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation, partnership or other entity created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States or any political subdivision thereof, or an estate or trust whose income from sources without the United States may be included in gross income for United States federal income tax purposes regardless of its connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States.


17.       The Owner of the Residual Certificate, hereby agrees that in the event that the Trust Fund created by the Pooling and Servicing Agreement is terminated pursuant to Section 9.01 thereof, the undersigned shall assign and transfer to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates (with respect to a termination of REMIC I) any amounts in excess of par received in connection with such termination.  Accordingly, in the event of such termination, the Trustee is hereby authorized to withhold any such amounts in excess of par and to pay such amounts directly to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates.  This agreement shall bind and be enforceable against any successor, transferee or assignee of the undersigned in the Residual Certificate. In connection with any transfer of the Residual Certificate, the Owner shall obtain an agreement substantially similar to this
clause from any subsequent owner.



 









 


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Owner has caused this instrument to be executed on its behalf, pursuant to the authority of its Board of Directors, by its [Vice] President, attested by its [Assistant] Secretary, this ____ day of __________, 20__.

                                 1.         I am a ____________________ of ____________________________ (the “Owner”), a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of ______________, on behalf of whom I make this affidavit.



                               2.          The Owner is not transferring the Residual Certificates (the “Residual Certificates”) to impede the assessment or collection of any tax.



                               3.         The Owner has no actual knowledge that the Person that is the proposed transferee (the “Purchaser”) of the Residual Certificates: (i) has insufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by such proposed transferee as holder of the Residual Certificates; (ii) may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding for so long as the Residual Certificates remain outstanding; and (iii) is not a Permitted Transferee.



                               4.         The Owner understands that the Purchaser has delivered to the Trustee a transfer affidavit and agreement in the form attached to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement as Exhibit F-2.  The Owner does not know or believe that any representation contained therein is false.



                               5.         At the time of transfer, the Owner has conducted a reasonable investigation of the financial condition of the Purchaser as contemplated by Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i) and, as a result of that investigation, the Owner has determined that the Purchaser has historically paid its debts as they became due and has found no significant evidence to indicate that the Purchaser will not continue to pay its debts as they become due in the future. The Owner understands that the transfer of a Residual Certificate may not be respected for United States income tax purposes (and the Owner may continue to be liable for United States income taxes associated therewith) unless the Owner has conducted such an investigation.


6.          Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.



 









 


IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Owner has caused this instrument to be executed on its behalf, pursuant to the authority of its Board of Directors, by its [Vice] President, attested by its [Assistant] Secretary, this ____ day of ___________, 20__.
