This POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT is dated as of May 1, 2006 (the “Agreement”), among LONG BEACH SECURITIES CORP., as depositor (the “Depositor”), LONG BEACH
MORTGAGE COMPANY, as seller (the “Seller”) and master servicer (the “Master Servicer”) and DEUTSCHE BANK NATIONAL TRUST COMPANY, as trustee (the “Trustee”).




PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:



 



The Depositor intends to sell pass‐through certificates (collectively, the “Certificates”), to be issued hereunder in multiple classes, which in
the aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust Fund created hereunder.  The Certificates will consist of fifteen classes of certificates, designated as (i) the Class A‐1 Certificates, (ii) the Class A‐2
Certificates, (iii) the Class A‐3 Certificates, (iv) the Class M‐1 Certificates, (v) the Class M‐2 Certificates, (vi) the Class M‐3 Certificates, (vii) the Class M‐4 Certificates, (viii) the Class M‐5
Certificates, (ix) the Class M‐6 Certificates, (x) the Class M‐7 Certificates, (xi) the Class B‐1 Certificates, (xii) the Class B‐2 Certificates, (xiii) the Class C Certificates, (xiv) the Class P Certificates and
(xv) the Class R Certificates.


 










REMIC 1


As provided herein, the Trustee shall make an election to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the Mortgage Loans and certain other related assets subject to this Agreement
(exclusive of the Reserve Fund, the Cap Account, the Cap Agreement and the Master Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts) as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets will be designated as “REMIC 1.”  The Class
R‐1 Interest shall represent the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC 1 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions (as defined herein) under federal income tax law.  The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the
Uncertificated REMIC 1 Pass-Through Rate, the initial Uncertificated Principal Balance, and solely for purposes of satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G‐1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” for each of the REMIC 1 Regular
Interests.  None of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests will be certificated.

Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, 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, the Assignments shall not be required to be completed and submitted for recording with respect to any Mortgage Loan if each Rating Agency does not require recordation in order for
such Rating Agency to assign the initial ratings to the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates; provided, however, each such Assignment shall be submitted for recording by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, in the
manner described above, at no expense to the Trust Fund or the Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of:  (i) reasonable direction by Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights, (ii) the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of
Default, (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Seller, (iv) the occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 hereof and (v) if the Seller is not the Master Servicer and with respect to
any one Assignment, the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Master Servicer is unable to pay the cost of recording the Assignments, such expense shall
be paid by the Trustee and shall be reimbursable to the Trustee as an Extraordinary Trust Fund Expense.


In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS® System, the Depositor further agrees that it shall 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 shall not, and shall not permit the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it shall 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(b), (c), (d) or (e) above (collectively, the “Recording Documents”) 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 Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, to deliver
such Recording Documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon (1) delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian of a copy of each such Recording Document certified by the Seller 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 Seller, delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian promptly upon receipt thereof, and in any event no later
than one year after the Closing Date, of either the original or a copy of such Recording Document certified by the applicable public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original.  In instances where, due to a delay on the part of the recording
office where any such Recording Documents have been delivered for recordation, the Recording Documents cannot be delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian within one year after the Closing Date, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall
deliver to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian within such time period an Officer’s Certificate stating the date by which the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, expects to receive such Recording Documents from the applicable recording
office.  In the event that Recording Documents have still not been received by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, and delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian by the date specified in its previous Officer’s Certificate
delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, as the case may be, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian by such date an additional Officer’s Certificate stating a revised date by
which the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, expects to receive the applicable Recording Documents.  This procedure shall be repeated until the Recording Documents have been received by the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, and
delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian.  If the original lender’s title insurance policy was not delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(f) above, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to
the Trustee or the applicable Custodian promptly after receipt thereof, and in any event within 120 days after the Closing Date, the original lender’s title insurance policy.  The Master Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian 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.


All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian are and shall be held by or on behalf of the Seller, the Depositor or
the Master 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 to be a part of a Mortgage File, such
document shall be delivered promptly to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian.  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 Master Servicer.


The Mortgage Loans permitted by the terms of this Agreement to be included in the Trust are limited to (i) the Mortgage Loans (which the Depositor acquired pursuant to the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement, which contains, among other representations and warranties, a representation and warranty of the Seller that no Mortgage Loan is a “high-cost” or “predatory” loan under any state or local law or regulation applicable to the
originator), and (ii) Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans (which, by definition as set forth herein and referred to in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, are required to conform to, among other representations and warranties, the representation and warranty of the
Seller that no Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan is a “high cost” or “predatory” loan under any state or local law or regulation applicable to the originator).  It is agreed and understood by the parties hereto that it is not intended
that any mortgage loan be included in the Trust that is a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003, a “High Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act
effective January 1, 2004, a “High Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Kentucky high-cost loan statute effective June 24, 2003 (Ky. Rev. Stat. Section 360.100), or a “High Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Indiana Home Loan Practices Act
effective January 1, 2005 (Ind. Code Ann. §§ 24-9-1 through 24-9-9) or a “High Cost Mortgage Loan” as defined in the Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act effective November 7, 2004 (Mass. Gen. Laws Ch. 183C. §§1 et
seq.).



Section 2.02          Acceptance of REMIC 1 by 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, the Trustee or a Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee, as applicable, acknowledges receipt of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 above and all other assets included in the definition of “REMIC 1” under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (vi) (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 the Mortgage File, and all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “REMIC 1” in trust for the
exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.


The Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review each Mortgage File on or before the Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan
and to certify to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F‐1 that, as to each Closing Date 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(e)) required to
be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by the Trustee or the Washington Mutual Custodian, as applicable and are not mutilated, torn or defaced unless initialed by the related borrower and
relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on the Trustee’s examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (i), (ii), (ix), (xii) and (xvi) 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, neither the Trustee nor any Custodian is under any 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 (including with respect to Section 2.01(f), whether such title insurance policy (a) contains all
necessary endorsements, (b) insures the priority of the Mortgage as a second lien or (c) whether the interest vested in the Mortgagor is a fee interest) 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 (e) of Section 2.01.


Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Trustee shall deliver (or, with respect to the Mortgage Loans held by another Custodian, such Custodian shall deliver) to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F‐2 evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.


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 holding such Mortgage Files or any Custodian
holding such Mortgage Files 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 shall so notify or such other Custodian shall notify the Depositor, the
Seller and the Master Servicer.  In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage
Loan which materially and adversely affects the value of 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.



Section 2.03          Cure, Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the Seller; Remedies for Breaches by Depositor or Master Servicer; Remedies for Breaches Relating to Prepayment
Charges.



(a)        Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, the
Mortgage File or of the breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the
Certificateholders (it being understood that (i) in the case of any such representation or warranty made to the knowledge or the best of knowledge of the Seller, as to which the Seller has no knowledge, without regard to the Seller’s lack of knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation or warranty being inaccurate at the time it was made or (ii) with respect to the representation and warranty set forth in the last sentence of Section 6(xxxix), Section 6(xlvi), the first sentence of Section 6(xlvii)
and Section 6(lv) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, a breach of any such representation or warranty shall in and of itself be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan), the Trustee shall
promptly notify the Depositor, the Seller and the Master Servicer of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date the Seller was notified of such missing
document, defect or breach (except as described in Section 2.03(e)), and if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the Master Servicer (or, in accordance with Section 3.02(b),
the Trustee) shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC 1 at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Seller was notified (subject to
Section 2.03(e)) of such missing document, defect or breach, if and to the extent that the Seller is obligated to do so under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.  The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, and the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, upon receipt of written certification from the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File, and the Trustee or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable,
shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall furnish to it or such Custodian, as applicable, and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. 
In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Seller is not a member of MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is registered on the MERS® System, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, 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 Seller 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 any 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
Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from REMIC 1 (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(d).  It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller 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 Certificateholders, the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.



(b)        Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Depositor or receipt of notice by the Depositor of the breach of any
representation or warranty of the Depositor set forth in Section 2.05 with respect to any Mortgage Loan, which materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the Depositor shall cure such breach in
all material respects.



(c)        As promptly as practicable (and no later than 90 days) after the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt
of notice by the Master Servicer of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 2.04 which materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Certificateholders in any
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.


Promptly upon the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Master Servicer set
forth in Section 2.04(a)(vii) or (viii) which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Holders of the Class P Certificates to any Prepayment Charge, the Master Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.  If the representation
made by the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller in Section 2.04(a)(vii) is breached, the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller shall pay into the Collection Account the amount of the scheduled Prepayment Charge, less any amount previously collected and
deposited by, or paid by, the Master Servicer into the Collection Account; and if the covenant made by the Master Servicer in Section 2.04(a)(viii) is breached, the Master Servicer shall pay into the Collection Account the amount of the waived Prepayment
Charge.  Payments by the Master Servicer into the Collection Account pursuant to this paragraph shall be made on the later of (i) the Master Servicer Remittance Date next following the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the
Master Servicer of the breach of the related representation, warranty or covenant of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 2.04(a)(vii) or (viii) which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Holders of the Class P Certificates to any Prepayment
Charge and (ii) the Master Servicer Remittance Date next following the Prepayment Period in which such breach occurred.  For the avoidance of doubt, a waiver of a Prepayment Charge by the Sub-Servicer that would constitute a breach of the Master Servicer's
covenant in Section 2.04(a)(viii) if such Prepayment Charge were waived by the Master Servicer shall be a breach by the Master Servicer of its covenant in Section 2.04(a)(viii).



(d)        Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a)
shall be effected prior to the date which is two years after the Startup Date for REMIC 1.


As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Seller delivering to the Trustee (or,
with respect to the Mortgage Loans held by another Custodian, to such Custodian) on behalf of the Trustee, for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment 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 Adjustments (as
described below), if any, in connection with such substitution.  The Trustee shall acknowledge or with respect to the Mortgage Loans held by another Custodian such other Custodian 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 and the Master Servicer, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a certification substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit F‐1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.  Within one year of the date of substitution, the Trustee shall deliver or with respect to the Mortgage Loans held by another Custodian, such other Custodian shall deliver
to the Depositor, the Seller and the Master Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F‐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 1 and will be retained by the Seller.  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 Seller shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan.  The Trustee shall give or cause to be given written
notice to the Certificateholders that such substitution has taken place, and the Master Servicer shall amend or cause to be amended the Mortgage Loan Schedule and, if applicable, the Prepayment Charge 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 and, if applicable, the Prepayment Charge Schedule to the Trustee.  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 as of the date of substitution.


For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will determine the amounts (the
“Substitution Adjustments”), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balance of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans, 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 with respect to such Deleted Mortgage Loan.  On the date of such substitution, the Seller will deliver or cause
to be delivered to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the sum of Substitution Adjustments, if any (which for federal income tax purposes will be treated as payment for the repurchase of that portion of the Deleted Mortgage
Loans), and the Trustee, upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans (or acknowledgement of such receipt by another Custodian) and certification by the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release or, if such Mortgage File is held by
another Custodian, such Custodian shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File or Files and the Trustee shall execute and deliver or, if such Mortgage File is held by another Custodian, such Custodian shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment, without recourse, as the Seller shall deliver to it or such Custodian, as applicable, and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.


In addition, the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not cause
(a) any federal tax to be imposed on  REMIC 1, created hereunder, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited transactions” under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or on contributions after the startup day under
Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code, or (b) any Trust REMIC hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding.



(e)        Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Master 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.  In connection therewith, the Master
Servicer in its capacity as Seller shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d), 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.  Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a) and Section 2.03(d).  The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller 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.



Section 2.04          Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Master Servicer.



(a)        The Master Servicer hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trustee and the

and to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and has duly authorized by all necessary action on the part of the Master Servicer the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement; and this Agreement, assuming the due
authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Depositor and the Trustee, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Master Servicer, enforceable against the Master Servicer in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that (a) the
enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and (b) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be
subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought.



(iii)       The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Master Servicer, the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by the Master
Servicer hereunder, the consummation by the Master Servicer of any other of the transactions herein contemplated, and the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business of the Master Servicer and will not (A) result in
a breach of any term or provision of the charter or by‐laws of the Master Servicer or (B) conflict with, result in a breach, violation or acceleration of, or result in a default under, the terms of any other material agreement or instrument to which the
Master Servicer is a party or by which it may be bound, or any statute, order or regulation applicable to the Master Servicer of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Master Servicer; and the Master
Servicer is not a party to, bound by, or in breach or violation of any indenture or other agreement or instrument, or subject to or in violation of any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having
jurisdiction over it, which materially and adversely affects or, to the Master Servicer’s knowledge, would in the future materially and adversely affect, (x) the ability of the Master Servicer to perform its obligations under this Agreement or (y) the
business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the Master Servicer taken as a whole;

or enforceability of this Agreement or the ability of the Master Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans or to perform any of its other obligations hereunder in accordance with the terms hereof;



(vi)       No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution,
delivery and performance by the Master Servicer of, or compliance by the Master Servicer with, this Agreement or the consummation by the Master Servicer of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for such consents, approvals, authorizations or orders,
if any, that have been obtained prior to the Closing Date;



(vii)      The information set forth in the Prepayment Charge Schedule is complete, true and correct in all material respects at the
date or dates respecting which such information is furnished and each Prepayment Charge is permissible and enforceable in accordance with its terms under applicable law upon the Mortgagor’s voluntary principal prepayment (except to the extent that:  (1)
the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally; or (2) the collectability thereof may be limited due to acceleration in connection with a
foreclosure or other involuntary prepayment); provided that the representation, warranty and covenant contained in this clause (vii) is made by the Master Servicer only in its capacity as Seller;



(viii)      The Master Servicer will not waive any Prepayment Charge or part of a Prepayment Charge unless such waiver is related to a

Loans (including any waiver of a Prepayment Charge in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that is related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer may waive any Prepayment Charge or part
of a Prepayment Charge in any instance when the mortgage debt is accelerated as a result of the Mortgagor’s default in making the Mortgage Loan payments and the Master Servicer may waive any prepayment charges or premiums due in connection with a partial

each Mortgage Loan pursuant to Fannie Mae Guide Announcement 95-19 and that for each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer agrees it shall report one of the following statuses each month as follows:  new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.),
foreclosed, or charged-off; and



(x)        The Master Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer servicing the Mortgage Loans on its behalf) is a member of MERS in good standing,
and will comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS.



(b)        It is understood and agreed that the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in this Section 2.04 shall
survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee or a Custodian, as the case may be, and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificateholders.  Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee of a
breach of any of the foregoing representations, warranties and covenants which materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan, Prepayment Charge or the interests therein of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt
written notice (but in no event later than two Business Days following such discovery) to the other of such parties.  The obligation of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 2.03(c) to cure breaches (or, in the case of (a)(vii) or (a)(viii) above, to pay
a Master Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amount) shall constitute the sole remedy against the Master Servicer available to the Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders respecting a breach of the representations,
warranties and covenants contained in this Section 2.04.  The preceding sentence shall not, however, limit any remedies available to the Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, (i) pursuant to the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement signed by the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller, respecting a breach of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller contained in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or
(ii) pursuant to Section 7.01 hereof.



Section 2.05          Representations and Warranties of the Depositor.


The Depositor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, and to the Master Servicer, that as of the Closing Date or as
of such date specifically provided herein:

of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect affecting the enforcement of
creditors’ rights in general and except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity);



(ii)        Immediately prior to the sale and assignment by the Depositor to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust of each Mortgage
Loan, the Depositor had good and marketable title to each Mortgage Loan subject to no prior lien, claim, participation interest, mortgage, security interest, pledge, charge or other encumbrance or other interest of any nature;



(iii)       As of the Closing Date, the Depositor has transferred all of its right, title and interest in the Mortgage Loans to the
Trustee on behalf of the Trust;



(iv)       The Depositor is solvent and will not be made insolvent by the transfer of the Mortgage Loans.  The Depositor has not
transferred the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee with any intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors;



(v)        The Depositor has been duly incorporated and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of

ARTICLE III



ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING

OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS



Section 3.01          Master Servicer to Act as Master Servicer.


The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trustee 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 in the local areas where the related Mortgaged Property is located and giving due consideration to the related First Mortgage Loan.  Subject only to the above‐described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the
respective Mortgage Loans, the Master 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 in
accordance with policies and procedures generally accepted in the mortgage banking industry.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Sub‐Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the
Trustee when the Master 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 the Certificateholders.  The Master 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 Master Servicer shall also comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and
requirements of each insurer under any applicable standard hazard insurance policy.  Subject to Section 3.17, the Trustee, shall execute, at the written direction of the Master Servicer, and furnish to the Master Servicer and any Sub‐Servicer such
documents as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer or any Sub‐Servicer to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder, and the Trustee hereby grants to the Master Servicer and each Sub-Servicer a power of attorney to carry
out such duties including a power of attorney to take title to Mortgaged Properties after foreclosure on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.  The Trustee, at the direction of the Master Servicer, shall execute a separate power of attorney in favor
of (and furnish such power of attorney to) the Master Servicer and/or each Sub-Servicer for the purposes described herein to the extent necessary or desirable to enable the Master Servicer to perform its duties hereunder.  The Trustee shall not be liable for the
actions of the Master Servicer or any Sub‐Servicers under such powers of attorney.


The Master Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the Sub-Servicer, when the Master
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 Master Servicer by withdrawal from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11.


Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, in accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Master Servicer on escrowed accounts, if any, 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 collections on the related Mortgage Loans from the Mortgagors
pursuant to Section 3.09, and further as provided in Section 3.11.  Any cost incurred by the Master 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 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 Master Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan (except as provided in Section 4.04) and
the Master Servicer shall not (i) permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Rate, reduce or increase the 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 Master 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 final, temporary or proposed 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 day under the REMIC Provisions.


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


If the Mortgage relating to a Mortgage Loan had a First Mortgage Loan on the related Mortgaged Property as of the Cut-off Date, then the Master Servicer, in such capacity, may consent to the
refinancing of the First Mortgage Loan, provided, that such refinancing conforms to the Master Servicer’s standard subordination underwriting guidelines which shall at all times conform with the servicing standard set forth in this Section 3.01 of this
Agreement.


With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer will furnish, or cause to be furnished, information regarding the borrower credit file related to such Mortgage Loan to credit reporting
agencies in compliance with the provisions of the Fair Credit Reporting Act and the applicable implementing regulations.



Section 3.02          Sub‐Servicing Agreements Between the Master Servicer and Sub‐Servicers.



(a)        The Master Servicer may enter into Sub‐Servicing Agreements provided (i) that such agreements would not
result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by any Rating Agency of the ratings on any Class of Certificates as evidenced by a letter to that effect delivered by each Rating Agency to the Depositor and (ii) that, except in the case of any Sub‐Servicing
Agreements the Master Servicer may enter into with Washington Mutual, Inc. or any Affiliate thereof for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans.  That certain Subservicing Agreement by and between the Master Servicer and Washington Mutual Bank
dated April 9, 2001 is hereby acknowledged as being permitted under this Agreement and meeting the requirements applicable to Sub-Servicing Agreements set forth in this Agreement.  The Trustee is hereby authorized to acknowledge, at the request of the Master
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 in which 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, (ii) an institution approved as a mortgagee by the Department of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Section 203
of the National Housing Act of 1934, as amended, or an institution the deposit accounts in which are insured by the FDIC and (iii) a 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.  The Master 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 Master 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.  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 credits and charges to the Sub‐Servicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the Sub‐Servicers to the Master Servicer are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and
therefore prohibited.  The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Sub‐Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Master Servicer’s execution and delivery of such instruments.



(b)        As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer (except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of
this paragraph), for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Sub‐Servicer under the related Sub‐Servicing Agreement and, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, of the Seller under the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement including, without limitation, any obligation to make advances in respect of delinquent payments as required by a Sub‐Servicing Agreement, or to purchase or otherwise remedy as contemplated herein a Mortgage Loan on account of missing or
defective documentation or on account of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant, as described in Section 2.03(a).  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 Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans.  The Master
Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor 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.  Enforcement of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement against the Seller shall be effected by the Master
Servicer to the extent it is not the Seller, and otherwise by the Trustee, in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph.



Section 3.03          Successor Sub‐Servicers.


The Master Servicer 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 Master Servicer without any act or
deed on the part of such Sub‐Servicer or the Master Servicer, and the Master 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 without fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, and
the Trustee shall so terminate such Sub‐Servicing Agreement in the event that the Master Servicer (or the Trustee, if then acting as Master Servicer) shall, for any reason, no longer be the Master Servicer (including termination due to a Master Servicer Event
of Default).



Section 3.04          Liability of the Master Servicer.


Notwithstanding any Sub‐Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master Servicer and a Sub‐Servicer or
reference to actions taken through a Sub‐Servicer or otherwise, the Master 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 Master Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.  The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub‐Servicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer by such Sub‐Servicer and nothing
contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification and no such indemnification shall be an expense of the Trust.



Section 3.05          No Contractual Relationship Between Sub‐Servicers and the Trustee 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 Master Servicer alone, and the Trustee 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 Master Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Sub‐Servicer, irrespective of whether the Master Servicer’s compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees
and such fees shall not be an expense of the Trust.



Section 3.06          Assumption or Termination of Sub‐Servicing Agreements by Trustee.


In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the master servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default), the Trustee or its
designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under each Sub‐Servicing Agreement that the Master 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 Master
Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the Master 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 Master Servicer
shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under any Sub‐Servicing Agreement that arose before it ceased to be the Master Servicer and (ii) none of the Trustee, its designee or any successor Master Servicer shall be deemed to have
assumed any liability or obligation of the Master Servicer that arose before it ceased to be the Master Servicer.


The Master Servicer at its own expense and without reimbursement 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 Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be
consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any applicable insurance policies, follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account giving due
consideration to the related First Mortgage Loan.  Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any penalty interest, or (ii) extend the due dates for the Monthly Payments
due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided that any extension pursuant to this clause (ii) shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except as provided below. 
In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Master Servicer shall make timely advances on such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.04 and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without
modification thereof by reason of such arrangements, subject to Section 4.04(d) pursuant to which the Master Servicer shall not be required to make any such advances that are Nonrecoverable Advances.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any
Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Master 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; provided, that in the judgment of the Master Servicer, any
such modification, waiver or amendment could reasonably be expected to result in collections and other recoveries in respect of such Mortgage Loans in excess of Net Liquidation Proceeds that would be recovered upon the foreclosure of, or other realization upon, such
Mortgage Loan. 



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 shall be required to establish and maintain one or
more segregated accounts (collectively, the “Sub‐Servicing Account”).  The Sub‐Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall be entitled “Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust for registered Holders
of Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A, Asset‐Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A.  The Sub‐Servicer shall be required to deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible 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 deposit of such funds into
the clearing account.  The Sub‐Servicer shall thereafter be required to deposit all such proceeds in the Collection Account or remit such proceeds to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than the Determination Date following
the deposit of such amounts in the Sub‐Servicing Account.  For purposes of this Agreement, the Master 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.


If required by the related Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more segregated accounts (the “Servicing
Accounts”).  Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts.  The Master Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible 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 Master Servicer’s receipt thereof, 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”) 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 deposit of such funds in the clearing account, for the purpose of effecting the 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; (ii) reimburse the Master 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; (v) clear and terminate the Servicing Account upon the termination of the Master Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement in
accordance with Article IX or (vi) recover amounts deposited in error.  As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer or Sub‐Servicers shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in 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.



Section 3.10          Collection Account and Distribution Account.



(a)        On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and
maintained, one or more segregated 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 Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be
deposited in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible 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 Master Servicer’s receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the Collection Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account, 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 related Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut‐off Date or payments (other than Principal

(i)         all payments on account of

(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;

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Accounts shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Prepayment
Interest Excess and payments in the nature of late payment charges, NSF fees, reconveyance fees, assumption fees and other similar fees and charges (other than Prepayment Charges) need not be deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account and shall, upon
collection, belong to the Master Servicer as additional compensation for its servicing activities.  In the event the Master 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 segregated accounts (such account or

definition of “Eligible Account,” the Master Servicer shall, on or before 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 Master Servicer, the
Trustee, the Seller or any Sub‐Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11 and shall pay such amounts to the Persons entitled thereto.  In order to comply with its duties under the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee shall obtain and verify certain information and
documentation from the parties hereto, including, but not limited to, each party’s name, address, and other identifying information.



(c)        Funds in the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with

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 Master 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, and the Trustee shall withdraw, such amount from the Distribution Account and remit to the Master Servicer any such amount, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.  In addition, the
Master 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 4.04, unless delivered directly to the Trustee by an Advancing Person;



(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 by the Master Servicer
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 3.24 in connection with any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls; and



(v)        any Stayed Funds, as soon as permitted by
the federal bankruptcy court having jurisdiction in such matters.



(e)        Promptly upon receipt of any Stayed Funds, whether from the Master Servicer, a trustee in bankruptcy, federal bankruptcy
court or other source, the Trustee shall deposit such funds in the Distribution Account, subject to withdrawal thereof pursuant to Section 7.02(b) or as otherwise permitted hereunder.



Section 3.11          Withdrawals from the Collection Account and Distribution Account.



(a)        The Master Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account, for any of the following

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

Section 4.04;



(iii)       subject to Section 3.16(d), to pay the
Master Servicer or any Sub‐Servicer (a) any unpaid Servicing Fees or (b) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Late Collections, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Gross Subsequent
Recoveries or other amounts as may be collected by the Master Servicer from a Mortgagor, or otherwise received with respect to such Mortgage Loan;



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



(v)        to pay to the Master Servicer 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 Master Servicer for any
Advance or Servicing Advance previously made which the Master Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04;



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



(viii)      to reimburse the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as

arising out of the enforcement of the purchase obligation;



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



(x)        to pay, or to reimburse the Master
Servicer for costs and expenses incurred with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property after it has been charged off as contemplated in Section 3.16(a)(ii), but only to the extent of Gross Subsequent Recoveries received with respect to such Mortgage Loan or REO
Property; and



(xi)       to clear and terminate the Collection Account
pursuant to Section 9.01.


The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on an individual 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), (v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) above.  The Master Servicer shall provide written notification to the Trustee, on or prior to the next succeeding Master Servicer Remittance Date, upon making any
withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclause (vii) above.



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

Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to Section 3.27;

based on information received from the Master Servicer; and



(x)        to pay itself the Trustee Fees.



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



(a)        The Master Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account and any REO Account (for
purposes of this Section 3.12, an “Investment Account”), and the Trustee, in its individual capacity, may direct any depository institution maintaining the Distribution Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, the Distribution Account is also
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 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.  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 and 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 actual notice 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 Master Servicer shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Section 3.11 or Section 3.23, as applicable.  The Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account
or any REO Account, as applicable, from its own funds, 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)        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 at any time.  The Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account, from its own funds, 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.



(d)        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 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)        With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the fire and casualty
insurance coverage maintained by the related Mortgagors with respect to the Mortgaged Properties in accordance with its normal servicing practices.  The Master Servicer shall, if it has received notice of a default or deficiency in respect of the payment of any
ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates or casualty insurance premiums or other charges that are or may become a lien upon the related Mortgaged Property, notify the related Mortgagor and the holder of the related First Mortgage Loan.



(b)        To the extent permitted under the related Mortgage Loan, and to the extent the Master Servicer receives notice that a
fire insurance policy has been cancelled, the Master Servicer shall, to the extent consistent with its normal servicing practices, cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire insurance on the related Mortgaged Property in an amount which is at least equal to
the least of (i) the then current 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 a 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 Master
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 lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the
outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became an REO Property, plus accrued interest at the Mortgage Rate and related Servicing Advances.  The Master 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 Master Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage,
amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the procedures that the Master Servicer would follow in servicing loans held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note and amounts required to be paid
to the holder of the related First Mortgage Loan) 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 Master Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid 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 the time of origination of the related Mortgage Loan 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 Master Servicer will cause to be maintained, to the extent required by the related Mortgage Loan, a flood insurance policy in respect thereof.  Such flood insurance shall be in an
amount equal to the least of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the full insurable value of the related Mortgaged Property and (iii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the
national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program).


In the event that the Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket 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) 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 Master 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 Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance
with the terms of such policy.



(c)        The Master 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 Master 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 Master Servicer or any of its Affiliates has obtained a waiver of such Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac requirements from either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The Master 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 Master Servicer or any of its Affiliates has obtained a waiver of such Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac requirements from either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The Master Servicer shall provide the
Trustee (upon reasonable request) with copies of any such insurance policies and fidelity bond.  The Master Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the Master 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 Master Servicer.  Any such errors and omissions policy and fidelity bond shall by its terms not be cancelable without thirty days’ prior
written notice to the Trustee.  The Master Servicer shall also cause each Sub‐Servicer to maintain a comparable policy of insurance covering errors and omissions and a fidelity bond meeting such requirements.



Section 3.15          Enforcement of Due‐On‐Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.


The Master Servicer shall, 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 Master Servicer shall not be required to take such action if in its sole business judgment the Master Servicer believes that the collections and other recoveries in respect of such Mortgage Loans could reasonably be expected to be
maximized if the Mortgage Loan were not accelerated, and the Master Servicer shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so.  If the Master 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 Master 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 Master Servicer may also 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 Master Servicer and has a credit risk rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor.  In connection with any assumption, modification or substitution, the Master 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 Master Servicer shall not take or enter into any
assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the extent practicable under the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance policy, or a new policy meeting the
requirements of this Section is obtained.  Any fee collected by the Master Servicer in respect of any assumption, modification or substitution of liability agreement will be retained by the Master 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
Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee 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 Master 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 Master Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatever.  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)        (i)         The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the
servicing standard 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 Master Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will constitute and be recoverable as
Servicing Advances by the Master Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.11 and Section 3.23.  The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer
shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property unless it shall determine in its sole and absolute discretion that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to
itself for such expenses.



(ii)        No later than the day on which a Mortgage Loan becomes 180 days Delinquent, the Master Servicer shall determine whether
a significant net recovery is possible through foreclosure proceedings or other liquidation of the related Mortgaged Property.  If the Master Servicer determines that no such recovery is possible, it shall charge off such Mortgage Loan no later than the date it
becomes 180 days Delinquent, and it may charge off such Mortgage Loan prior to that date.  Once a Mortgage Loan has been charged off, the Master Servicer shall discontinue making Advances, the Master Servicer shall not be entitled to any additional Servicing Fee
for such Mortgage Loan, and the Mortgage Loan shall be treated as a Liquidated Mortgage Loan giving rise to a Realized Loss. 



(iii)       Once a Mortgage Loan is charged off pursuant to Section 3.16(a)(ii), the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to service
such Mortgage Loan.  The Master Servicer may cease any collection efforts with respect to such Mortgage Loan, and statements of account may no longer be sent to such Mortgagor.  The Master Servicer shall write off each charged off Mortgage Loan as bad
debt. 



(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 Master 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 Master 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 Master Servicer has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared by an Independent 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.


The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 3.16 shall be advanced by the Master Servicer, subject to the Master 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.  It is understood by the parties hereto that any such advance will constitute a Servicing Advance.


If the Master 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 Master Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund.  The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Master Servicer, subject to the Master
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.  It is understood by the parties hereto that any such advance will constitute a Servicing Advance.



(c)        The Holder of the Class C Certificates (except if such Holder is the Seller or any of its Affiliates) may at its option
purchase from REMIC 1 any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property that is 90 days or more delinquent or that has been otherwise in default for 90 days or more, which such Holder determines in good faith will otherwise become subject to foreclosure proceedings (evidence
of such determination to be delivered in writing to the Trustee prior to purchase), at a price equal to the Purchase Price; provided, however, that the Holder of the Class C Certificates shall purchase any such Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties on the basis of
delinquency or default, purchasing first the Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties that became delinquent or otherwise in default on an earlier date.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder of the Class C Certificates in exercising its right to purchase
Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 3.16(c) shall not be subject to any requirement of this Article III (other than the requirements of this Section 3.16(c)).  The Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property purchased hereunder shall be
deposited in the Collection Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release or cause to be released to the Holder of the Class C Certificates the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall
execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Holder of the Class C Certificates shall furnish and as shall be necessary to vest in the Holder of the Class C Certificates title to any Mortgage Loan or related
REO Property released pursuant hereto.



(d)        Proceeds received (other than any Prepayment Charges received) in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as
well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or Gross Subsequent Recoveries, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the following order of priority:  first, to reimburse the Master
Servicer or any Sub‐Servicer for (A) any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances, pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii) or (a)(iii); and (B) any related costs and expenses incurred with respect to a charged off Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section
3.11(a)(x) from Gross Subsequent Recoveries; second, 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 third, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan.  If the amount of the recovery so allocated to interest is less than the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on such Mortgage Loan, the
amount of such recovery will be allocated by the Master Servicer as follows:  first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; and second, to the balance of the interest then due and owing.  The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees
shall be reimbursed to the Master Servicer or any Sub‐Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii).



(e)        The Master Servicer may (but is not obligated to) enter into a special servicing agreement with an unaffiliated holder
of a 100% Percentage Interest of the Class B Certificates, or if the Class B Certificates are no longer outstanding, the most junior Class of the Mezzanine Certificates, subject to each Rating Agency's acknowledgment that the ratings of the Class A Certificates, the
Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates, in each case, in effect immediately prior to the entering into such agreement would not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn and none of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates or the Class B
Certificates would be placed on credit review status (except for possible upgrading) as a result of such agreement.  Any such agreement may contain provisions whereby such Holder may (i) instruct the Master Servicer to commence or delay foreclosure proceedings
with respect to delinquent Mortgage Loans and will contain provisions for the deposit of cash with the Master Servicer by the Holder that would be available for distribution to Certificateholders if Liquidation Proceeds are less than they otherwise may have been had
the Master Servicer acted in accordance with its normal procedures, (ii) purchase delinquent Mortgage Loans from the Trust Fund immediately prior to the commencement of foreclosure proceedings at a price equal to the Purchase Price, and/or (iii) assume all of the
servicing rights and obligations with respect to delinquent Mortgage Loans so long as such Holder (A) meets the requirements for a Sub-Servicer set forth in Section 3.02(a), (B) will service such Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and (C) the Master
Servicer has the right to transfer such servicing rights without the payment of any compensation to a subservicer.



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 Master Servicer of a notification that payment in
full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer will promptly notify the Trustee and the applicable Custodian holding the related Mortgage File by a certification in the form of Exhibit E‐2 (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) of a Servicing Representative
and shall request delivery to it of the related Mortgage File.  Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee or such Custodian, as applicable, shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer is
authorized to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS® System of any such Mortgage Loan, if applicable.  No 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 Trustee or the applicable Custodian shall, upon request of the Master Servicer and delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian of a Request for Release in the form of
Exhibit E‐l, release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer, and the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, at the direction of the Master Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of
any such proceedings and the Master Servicer shall retain such Mortgage File in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  Such Request for Release shall obligate the Master Servicer to return each and every document previously requested from the Mortgage
File to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian when the need therefor by the Master 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 Master Servicer has delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian a certificate of a Servicing Representative certifying as to 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 certificate of a Servicing Representative 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, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Trustee or the applicable Custodian to the Master Servicer or its
designee.



(c)        At the direction of the Master Servicer and upon written certification of a Servicing Representative, each of the
Trustee or the applicable Custodian shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents reasonably 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, or
shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer a power of attorney sufficient to authorize the Master Servicer or the Sub-Servicer to execute such documents on its behalf, provided that each of the Trustee or the applicable Custodian shall be obligated to execute
the documents identified above if necessary to enable the Master Servicer or the Sub-Servicer to perform their respective duties hereunder or under the Sub-Servicing Agreement.  Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be
executed by the Trustee or the applicable Custodian and a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required.



(d)        If any Mortgage Loan is repurchased, substituted or purchased in accordance with Section 2.03, Section 3.16(c) or
Section 9.01, the Trustee shall execute and deliver the Mortgage Loan Assignment Agreement in the form of Exhibit E-3 with respect to such Mortgage Loan, transferring such Mortgage Loan to the Person entitled thereto pursuant to such Section 2.03, Section 3.16(c) or
Section 9.01, as applicable.



Section 3.18          Servicing Compensation.


As compensation for the activities of the Master Servicer hereunder, the Master 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 Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees out of Late Collections, Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or Gross Subsequent Recoveries 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.  The Master Servicer shall also be entitled to recover from the related Gross Subsequent
Recoveries to the extent permitted by Section 3.11(a)(x) costs and expenses incurred after a Mortgage Loan has been charged off.  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 Master Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that the Master 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.


Additional servicing compensation in the form of Prepayment Interest Excess, assumption or modification fees, late payment charges, NSF fees, reconveyance fees and other similar fees and
charges (other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Master Servicer only to the extent such fees or charges are received by the Master Servicer.  The Master 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.  The Master 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, it being understood
however, that payment of such premiums by the Master Servicer shall constitute Servicing Advances and servicing compensation of each Sub‐Servicer, and to the extent provided herein and in Section 8.05, the fees and expenses of the Trustee) 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 fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall forward to the Trustee and the Depositor a statement prepared by the Master Servicer setting forth the
status of the Collection Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and withdrawals from the Collection Account of each category of deposit specified in
Section 3.10(a) and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.11.  Such statement may be in the form of the then current Fannie Mae Monthly Accounting Report for its Guaranteed Mortgage Pass‐Through Program with appropriate additions and
changes, and shall also include information as to the aggregate of the outstanding principal balances of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding such Distribution Date.  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 such statement is delivered by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee.



Section 3.20         
Annual Statement as to Compliance.



The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor and each Rating Agency, not later than March 15 of each calendar year beginning in the year following
the year of execution of this Agreement through and including the calendar year in which a Form 15 Suspension Notice is filed with respect to the Trust Fund and April 30 of each calendar year thereafter, an Officers’ Certificate (an “Annual Statement of
Compliance”) stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Master Servicer during the preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement or other applicable servicing agreement, if any, has been made under such officers’ supervision and
(ii) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Master Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement or other applicable servicing agreement, if any, in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has
been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.  The Master Servicer shall deliver a similar Annual Statement of Compliance by the Sub-Servicer, and any
other subservicer to which the Master Servicer has delegated any servicing responsibilities with respect to the Mortgage Loans, to the Trustee and the Depositor as described above as and when required with respect to the Master Servicer.  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 the request and at the expense of the requesting party, provided that such statement is delivered by the
Master Servicer to the Trustee.



Section 3.21         
Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports.



(a)        Pursuant to Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB, the Master Servicer shall
deliver to the Depositor on or before March 15 of each calendar year beginning in the year following the year of execution of this Agreement prior to and including the calendar year in which Form 15 Suspension Notice is filed with respect to the Trust Fund and April
30 of each calendar year thereafter, a report regarding the Master Servicer’s assessment of compliance (an “Assessment of Compliance”) with the servicing criteria during the preceding calendar year.  The Assessment of Compliance must be
reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, and as set forth in Regulation AB, the Assessment of Compliance must contain the following:



(i)         A statement by the Master Servicer of its responsibility for assessing compliance with the servicing criteria
applicable to the Master Servicer;



(ii)        A statement by the Master Servicer that it used the servicing criteria applicable to it, including at the minimum those
that are specified on Exhibit N hereto, and which will also be attached to the Assessment of Compliance, to assess compliance with the servicing criteria applicable to the Master Servicer;



(iii)       An assessment by the Master Servicer of the Master Servicer’s compliance with the applicable servicing criteria for
the period consisting of the preceding calendar year, including disclosure of any material instance of noncompliance with respect thereto during such period, which assessment shall be based on the activities it performs with respect to asset-backed securities
transactions taken as a whole involving the Master Servicer, that are backed by the same asset type as the Mortgage Loans;



(iv)       A statement that a registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on the Master Servicer’s
Assessment of Compliance for the period consisting of the preceding calendar year; and



(v)        A statement as to which of the Servicing Criteria, if any, are not applicable to the Master Servicer, which statement
shall be based on the activities it performs with respect to asset-backed securities transactions taken as a whole involving the Master Servicer, that are backed by the same asset type as the Mortgage Loans.


(b)        On or before March 15 of each calendar year beginning in the year following the year of execution of this Agreement prior to and including the calendar year in
which Form 15 Suspension Notice is filed with respect to the Trust Fund and April 30 of each calendar year thereafter, the Master Servicer shall furnish to the Depositor a report (an “Attestation Report”) by a registered public accounting firm that
attests to, and reports on, the Assessment of Compliance made by the Master Servicer, as required by Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122(b) of Regulation AB, which Attestation Report must be made in accordance with standards for attestation
reports issued or adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board.


(c)        The Master Servicer shall cause the Sub-Servicer and any other subservicer to which the Master Servicer delegated any of its responsibilities with respect to the
Mortgage Loans, and each subcontractor determined by the Master Servicer to be “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB to which the Master Servicer delegated any of its responsibilities with respect to
the Mortgage Loans, to deliver to the Trustee and the Depositor an Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report as and when provided above.


(d)        Such Assessment of Compliance, as to the Sub-Servicer and any other subservicer, shall at a minimum address each of the servicing criteria applicable to it,
including at the minimum those that are specified on Exhibit N hereto which are indicated as applicable to any “primary servicer.”  Notwithstanding the foregoing, as to any subcontractor, an Assessment of Compliance is not required to be delivered
unless it is required as part of a Form 10-K with respect to the Trust Fund.



(e)        The Trustee shall also provide to the Depositor an Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report, as and when provided
above, which shall at a minimum address each of the servicing criteria applicable to it, including at the minimum those that are specified on Exhibit N hereto which are indicated as applicable to the “trustee.”



Section 3.22          Access to Certain Documentation.



The Master 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 regarding the Mortgage Loans serviced by the Master Servicer under this Agreement, as may be 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 Master Servicer designated by it.  In addition, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans serviced by the Master Servicer under this Agreement sufficient to permit
the Certificateholder to comply with applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC or any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority with respect to investment in the Certificates will be provided to any Certificateholder
that is a savings and loan association, bank or insurance company, upon reasonable request during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it at the expense of the Person requesting such access.



Section 3.23          Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.



(a)        The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, in trust
for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  The Master Servicer, on behalf of REMIC 1 (and on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders), shall sell any REO Property as soon as practicable and, in any event, shall either sell any REO
Property before the close of the third taxable year after the year REMIC 1 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 the three‐year grace period, unless the Master Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the effect
that the holding by REMIC 1 of such REO Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result in the imposition on any Trust REMIC of taxes on “prohibited transactions” thereof, as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause
any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under Federal law at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.  If an extension of the three‐year period is granted, the Master Servicer shall sell the related REO Property no later than 60 days prior to
the expiration of such extension period.  The Master 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 Trust REMIC 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 Master Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any
REO Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets 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 Master Servicer may allow the Collection Account to serve as the REO Account, subject to separate ledgers for each REO Property.  The Master Servicer may retain or withdraw any interest
income paid on funds deposited in the REO Account.



(c)        The Master 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 Master Servicer manages and operates similar property owned by the Master Servicer or any of its Affiliates, all on such terms and for such
period as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interests of Certificateholders to the extent consistent with the interests of the holder of the related First Mortgage Loan.  In connection therewith, the Master Servicer shall deposit, or
cause to be deposited in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible 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 Master Servicer’s receipt thereof and shall thereafter deposit in the REO Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account, 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 Master Servicer shall advance from its own funds as Servicing Advances such amount as is necessary for such purposes if, but only if, the Master Servicer would make such advances if the Master Servicer owned the REO Property and if such
Servicing Advance would not constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.


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



(i)         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;



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



(iii)       authorize any construction on any REO Property, other than construction permitted under Section 856(e)(4)(B) of the
Code; or



(iv)       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 Master Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall constitute a Servicing Advance), a copy of which shall be provided to the Trustee, 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 REMIC 1, in which case the Master Servicer may take
such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.


The Master 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 Master 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 Master 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 Master 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 Master 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 Master Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.  The Master Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of
whether the Master 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 Master
Servicer, such amounts shall be reimbursable as Servicing Advances made by the Master Servicer.



(d)        In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section 3.23(c), the Master Servicer may from time to time make
withdrawals from the REO Account for any REO Property:  (i) to pay to the holder of the related First Mortgage Loan the amounts to which such holder is entitled by the terms of such First Mortgage Loan; (ii) to pay itself or any Sub‐Servicer unpaid
Servicing Fees in respect of the related Mortgage Loan; and (iii) 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 Master Servicer
Remittance Date, the Master 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
Master Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Master Servicer shall deem necessary or advisable, as shall be normal and usual in its general servicing activities for similar properties.



(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, net of any amounts required to be remitted to the holder of the related First Mortgage Loan and net of any payment or reimbursement to the Master 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 Master 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 Master 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 Master Servicer in Respect of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.


The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit into the Distribution Account on or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Master 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 solely from Principal Prepayments during the related Prepayment Period and (ii) the
amount of its aggregate Servicing Fee for the most recently ended calendar month.



Section 3.25          [Reserved].



Section 3.26          Reserve Fund.


No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain with itself a separate, segregated non-interest bearing trust account titled,
“Reserve Fund, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust for registered Holders of Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A, Asset‐Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A.”  The Trustee shall account for the right to
receive payments from the Reserve Fund as property that the Trustee holds separate and apart from the REMIC Regular Interests.



(a)        The following amounts shall be deposited into the Reserve Fund:



(i)         On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, into the Reserve Fund
$1,000;



(ii)        On each Distribution Date as to which there is a Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount payable to any of the Class A
Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates or the Class B Certificates, the Trustee has been directed by the Holders of the Class C Certificates to, and therefore shall, deposit into the Reserve Fund the amounts described in Section 4.01(d)(i)(u); and



(iii)       On each Distribution Date as to which there are no Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts, the Trustee shall deposit into the
Reserve Fund on behalf of the Holders of the Class C Certificates, from amounts otherwise distributable to such Class C Certificates, an amount such that when added to other amounts already on deposit in the Reserve Fund, the aggregate amount on deposit therein is
equal to $1,000. 



(b)        The Reserve Fund shall be treated as an “outside reserve fund” under applicable Treasury regulations and
shall not be part of any REMIC created hereunder.  For federal and state income tax purposes, the Holders of the Class C Certificates shall be deemed to be the owners of the Reserve Fund and all amounts deposited into the Reserve Fund (other than the initial
deposit therein of $1,000) shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC 2 to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.  For federal and state income tax purposes, payments in respect of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B
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 860G(a)(1).



(c)        By accepting a Class C Certificate, each Holder of a Class C Certificate shall be deemed to have directed the Trustee
to, and the Trustee shall pursuant to such direction, deposit into the Reserve Fund the amounts described in Section 3.26(a)(ii) and (a)(iii) above on each Distribution Date.  By accepting a Class C Certificate, each Holder of a Class C Certificate further
agrees that such direction is given for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by such acceptance.



(d)        At the direction of the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates, the Trustee shall
direct any depository institution maintaining the Reserve Fund to invest the funds in such 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 or an Affiliate manages or advises such investment, 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 or an Affiliate manages or advises such investment.  If no investment direction of the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates with respect to
the Reserve Fund is received by the Trustee, the Trustee shall invest the funds in the Reserve Fund in Permitted Investments managed by the Trustee or an Affiliate of the kind described in clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Investments.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any funds in the Reserve Fund shall be invested in Deutsche Bank Cash Management Fund 541 for so long as such investment complies with clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Investments.  All income and gain earned upon such investment shall
be deposited into the Reserve Fund. 



(e)        For federal tax return and information reporting, the right of the Certificateholders to receive payment on account of
the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates from the Reserve Fund in respect of any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount shall be assigned a value of zero.



Section 3.27          Advance Facility.



(a)        The Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund, at the direction of the Master Servicer, is hereby authorized to enter into a
facility with any Person which provides that such Person (an “Advancing Person”) may make all or a portion of the Advances and/or Servicing Advances to the Trust Fund under this Agreement, although no such facility shall reduce or otherwise affect the
Master Servicer’s obligation to fund such Advances and/or Servicing Advances.  To the extent that an Advancing Person makes all or a portion of any Advance or any Servicing Advance and provides the Trustee with notice acknowledged by the Master Servicer
that such Advancing Person is entitled to reimbursement, such Advancing Person shall be entitled to receive reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement for such amount to the extent provided in Section 3.27(b).  Such notice from the Advancing Person shall
specify the amount of the reimbursement and shall specify which Section of this Agreement permits the applicable Advance or Servicing Advance to be reimbursed.  The Trustee shall be entitled to rely without independent investigation on the Advancing
Person’s statement with respect to the amount of any reimbursement pursuant to this Section 3.27 and with respect to the Advancing Person’s statement with respect to the Section of this Agreement that permits the applicable Advance or Servicing
Advance to be reimbursed.  An Advancing Person whose obligations are limited to the making of Advances and/or Servicing Advances shall not be required to meet the qualifications of a Master Servicer or a Sub‐Servicer pursuant to Article VI hereof and
will not be deemed to be a Sub‐Servicer under this Agreement.



(b)        If an advancing facility is entered into, then the Master Servicer shall not be permitted to reimburse itself under any
Section specified or for any amount specified by the Advancing Person in the notice described under Section 3.27(a) above and acknowledged by the Master Servicer prior to the remittance to the Trust Fund, but instead the Master Servicer shall include such
amounts in the applicable remittance to the Trustee made pursuant to Section 3.10(a).  The Trustee is hereby authorized to pay to the Advancing Person reimbursements for Advances and Servicing Advances from the Distribution Account to the same extent the
Master Servicer would have been permitted to reimburse itself for such Advances and/or Servicing Advances in accordance with the specified Sections had the Master Servicer itself made such Advance or Servicing Advance.  The Trustee is hereby authorized to pay
directly to the Advancing Person such portion of the Servicing Fee as the parties to any advancing facility may agree.



(c)        All Advances and Servicing Advances made pursuant to the terms of this Agreement shall be deemed made and shall be
reimbursed on a “first in‐first out” (FIFO) basis.



Section 3.28          PMI Policy; Claims Under the
PMI Policy


Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Article III, the Master Servicer shall not agree to any modification or assumption of a PMI Mortgage Loan or take any other
action with respect to a  PMI Mortgage Loan that could result in denial of coverage under the PMI Policy.  The Master Servicer shall notify the PMI Insurer that the Trustee, as trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, is the insured, as that term is
defined in the PMI Policy, of each PMI Mortgage Loan.  The Master Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee, prepare and file on a timely basis with the PMI Insurer, with a copy to the Trustee, all claims which may be made under the PMI Policy with respect to the
PMI Mortgage Loans.  The Master Servicer shall take all actions required under the PMI Policy as a condition to the payment of any such claim.  Any amount received from the PMI Insurer with respect to any such PMI Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by the
Master Servicer, no later than two Business Days following receipt thereof, into the Collection Account.  On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall pay to the PMI Insurer the PMI Insurer Fee for such Distribution Date from the amounts on deposit in the
Distribution Account prior to making any distributions to the Certificateholders.



Section 3.29          Cap Agreement.



(a)        The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to execute and deliver on behalf of the Trust the Cap Agreement and authorizes
the Trustee to perform its obligations thereunder and under the Cap Agreement on behalf of the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Cap Assignment.



(b)        If the rating of the Cap Provider’s obligations is withdrawn or reduced (in the manner set forth in
Section 14 of the Cap Agreement) below one of the Approved Rating Thresholds (as defined in Section 14 of the Cap Agreement), the Trustee shall, promptly after a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has received actual knowledge or written notice of the
reduction or withdrawal of the rating (it being understood that the Trustee has no duty to monitor the ratings of the Cap Provider), request the Cap Provider to take actions required to be taken by the Cap Provider by Section 14 of the Cap Agreement.



(c)        In the event that the Cap Agreement is canceled or otherwise terminated for any reason (other than the exhaustion of the
interest rate projection provided thereby or replacement of the Cap Agreement by the Cap Provider in accordance with Section 3.29(b)), the Depositor shall, to the extent a replacement contract is available, direct the Trustee to obtain from a counterparty
designated by the Depositor a replacement contract comparable to the Cap Agreement (which both such counterparty and such replacement contract shall be acceptable to the Trustee and the Holders of the Certificates entitled to at least 50% of the Voting Rights)
providing interest rate protection which is equal to the then existing protection provided by the Cap Agreement, provided, however, that if the cost of any such replacement contract providing the same interest rate protection would be greater than the amount of any
early termination payment received by the Trustee under the Cap Agreement the amount of interest rate protection provided by such replacement contract may be reduced to a level such that the cost of such replacement contract shall not exceed the amount of such early
termination payment.




ARTICLE IV



FLOW OF FUNDS



Section 4.01          Distributions.



(a)        On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account that portion of the Available Funds

related Record Date (except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.01 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

in respect of amounts properly previously distributed on the Certificates.



(h)        Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Trustee expects that the final distribution with respect
to any Class of Certificates shall 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(h) 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 such 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 WaMu Capital Corp. and Goldman, Sachs
& Co., equally, 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(h).



(i)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) in no event shall the Certificate Principal Balance of a
Mezzanine Certificate or a Class B 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 4.06 and (b) distributed to such Certificate in
reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance thereof pursuant to this Section 4.01, and (ii) in no event shall the Uncertificated Principal Balance of a REMIC Regular Interest be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both

related Distribution Date.  Not later than each Master Servicer Remittance Date (or, in the case of certain information, as agreed between the Trustee and the Master Servicer, not later than four Business Days after the end of each Due Period), the Master
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 Master Servicer.



(b)        The amount of Advances to be made by the Master Servicer for any Distribution Date shall equal, subject to
Section 4.04(d), the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Monthly Payments (with each interest portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee), due on the related Due Date in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which Monthly Payments were delinquent as of the
close of business on the related Determination Date, plus (ii) with respect to each REO Property, which REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Prepayment Period and as to which such REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the
related Prepayment Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Monthly Payments (with each interest portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee) that would have been due on the related Due Date in respect of the related Mortgage Loans, 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 Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master 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 4.04, used by the Master 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 Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.  Any amounts held for future
distribution and so used shall be appropriately reflected in the Master Servicer’s records and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Master 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 Master 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 Master Servicer by telecopy by the close of business on any Master Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the
amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trustee on such date is less than the Advances required to be made by the Master Servicer for the related Distribution Date. 



(c)        The obligation of the Master Servicer to make such Advances is mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement but subject to Section 4.04(d) below, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, shall continue until the earliest of the Mortgage Loan is paid in full, charged-off, or until the recovery of all Liquidation Proceeds thereon.



(d)        Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advance or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder
by the Master Servicer if such Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.  The determination by the Master Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or that any proposed Advance or Servicing Advance, if made, would
constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate of the Master Servicer delivered to the Depositor and the Trustee.



Section 4.05          Distributions on the REMIC Regular Interests.



(a)        On each Distribution Date, the following amounts, in the following order of priority, shall be distributed by REMIC 1 to REMIC 2 on account of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests and distributed to the Holders of the
Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-2 Interest), as the case may be:



(i)         to the Holders of REMIC 1 Regular Interests
A1, A2, A3, M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M7, B1, B2, and ZZ, 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.  Amounts payable
as Uncertificated Accrued Interest in respect of REMIC 1 Regular Interest ZZ shall be reduced and deferred when the REMIC 1 Overcollateralized Amount is less than the REMIC 1 Overcollateralization Target Amount, by the lesser of (x) the amount of such difference and
(y) the Maximum ZZ Uncertificated Interest Deferral Amount and such amount shall be payable to the Holders of REMIC 1 Regular Interests A1, A2, A3, M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M7, B1, and B2 in the same proportion as the Extra Principal Distribution Amount is allocated
to the Corresponding Certificates and the Uncertificated Principal Balance of the REMIC 1 Regular Interest ZZ shall be increased by such amount;



(ii)        to the Holders of REMIC 1 Regular Interests, in an
amount equal to the remainder of the Available Funds for such Distribution Date after the distributions made pursuant to clause (i) above, allocated as follows:



(1)        98.00% of such remainder to the Holders of REMIC 1
Regular Interest AA until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC 1 Regular Interest is reduced to zero, provided, however, that REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA 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 1 Regular Interest AA, until $100 has been distributed pursuant to this clause;



(2)        2.00% of such remainder, first, to the Holders of
REMIC 1 Regular Interest A1, A2, A3, M1, M2, M3, M4, M5, M6, M7, B1 and B2, 1.00% and in the same proportion as principal payments are allocated to the Corresponding Certificates, until the Uncertificated Balances of such REMIC 1 Regular Interests are reduced to zero
and second, to the Holders of REMIC 1 Regular Interest ZZ, until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC 1 Regular Interest is reduced to zero; and



(3)        any remaining amount to the Holders of the Class R
Certificates (in respect of the Class R-1 Interest);



(4)        any remaining amount to the Holders of the Class R
Certificates (in respect of the Class R-2 Interest); and



(v)        to the Holders of the REMIC 1 Regular Interest P,
all amounts representing Prepayment Charges in respect of the Mortgage Loans received during the related Prepayment Period, provided that the payment of such amounts shall not reduce the Uncertificated Principal Balance of such REMIC 1 Regular Interest.



(b)        The intent of the principal distribution provisions of this Section, and of the Realized Loss
allocation provisions of Section 4.06, is to maintain an Uncertificated Principal Balance for each REMIC 1 Regular Interest (other than REMIC 1 Regular Interests AA, ZZ, and P) that equals 1% of the Certificate Principal Balance of the Corresponding Certificate, and
to maintain the combined Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interests AA and P at 98% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans.  To the extent that the provisions of this Section 4.05 or Section 4.06 do not produce such
Uncertificated Principal Balances for the REMIC 1 Regular Interests, the Trustee is authorized to reallocate principal payments and Realized Losses in such a manner so as to result in such Uncertificated Principal Balances.



Section 4.06          Allocation of Realized
Losses.



(a)        Prior to each Determination Date, the Master 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; (ii) whether and the extent to which such Realized Losses
constituted Bankruptcy Losses; and (iii) the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and allocable to principal.  Prior to each Determination Date, the Master 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 two preceding sentences that is to be supplied by the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee by the Master
Servicer prior to the Determination Date immediately following the end of (i) in the case of Bankruptcy Losses allocable to interest, the Due Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred, and (ii) in the case of all other Realized Losses, the
Prepayment Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred.



(b)        If on any Distribution Date after giving effect to all Realized Losses incurred
with respect to the Mortgage Loans during or prior to the related Due Period and distributions of principal with respect to the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates on such Distribution Date, the Certificate Principal Balance
of the Class C Certificates is equal to zero, Realized Losses equal to the Undercollateralized Amount shall be allocated by the Trustee on such Distribution Date as follows:  first, to the Class B-2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof
has been reduced to zero, second, to the Class B‐1 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, third, to the Class M‐7 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero,
fourth, to the Class M-6 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, fifth, to the Class M-5 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, sixth, to the Class M‐4
Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, seventh, to the Class M‐3 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, eighth, to the Class M‐2 Certificates until the
Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, and ninth, 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 the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates on any Distribution Date shall be so allocated after the actual distributions to be made on such date as provided in Section 4.01.  All references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of the
Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates shall be to the Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by any Realized Losses or
increase thereof by any Subsequent Recoveries, in each case to be allocated to such Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates on such Distribution Date.



Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Mezzanine Certificate or Class B Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be made by
reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated.  No allocations of any Realized Losses shall be made to the Class A Certificates or the Class P Certificates.



(c)        all Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on
each Distribution Date to the following REMIC 1 Regular Interests in the specified percentages, as follows:



first, to Uncertificated Accrued Interest payable to the REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA and ZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to
the REMIC 1 Interest Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively;



second, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of the REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA and ZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to
the REMIC 1 Principal Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively;



third, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, B2 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively,
until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest B2 has been reduced to zero;



fourth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, B1 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively,
until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest B1 has been reduced to zero;



fifth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, M7 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until
the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest M7 has been reduced to zero;



sixth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, M6 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until
the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest M6 has been reduced to zero;



seventh, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, M5 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively,
until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest M5 has been reduced to zero;



eighth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, M4 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively,
until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest M4 has been reduced to zero;



ninth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, M3 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until
the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest M3 has been reduced to zero;



tenth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, M2 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until
the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest M2 has been reduced to zero; and



eleventh, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 1 Regular Interest AA, M1 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively,
until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest M1 has been reduced to zero.



(b)        If on any Distribution Date Allocated Realized Loss Amounts are to be reinstated
due to Subsequent Recoveries, the Allocated Realized Loss Amounts shall be reinstated by the Trustee on such Distribution Date to increase the Certificate Principal Balances of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates in the following order of
priority, in each case until the related Allocated Realized Loss Amount has been reduced to zero:  first, to the Class M‐1 Certificates, second to the Class M‐2 Certificates, third to the Class M‐3 Certificates,
fourth to the Class M‐4 Certificates, fifth to the Class M‐5 Certificates, sixth to the Class M‐6 Certificates, seventh to the Class M‐7 Certificates, eighth to the Class B-1 Certificates and ninth to
the Class B-2 Certificates.  All Subsequent Recoveries to be allocated to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Mezzanine Certificates or the Class B Certificates on any Distribution Date shall be so allocated after the actual distributions to be made on
such date as provided in Section 4.01.  All references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates shall be to the Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B
Certificates immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by any Realized Losses or increase thereof by any Subsequent Recoveries, in each case to be allocated to the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates on such
Distribution Date.



Any Allocated Realized Loss Amounts to be reinstated to a Certificate on any Distribution Date due to Subsequent Recoveries
shall be made by increasing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so reinstated.  No allocations of any Subsequent Recoveries shall be made to the Class A Certificates or the Class P Certificates. 



(c)        If on any Distribution Date Subsequent Recoveries occurred in the related Prepayment Period, the
amount of such Subsequent Recoveries shall be allocated among the REMIC 1 Regular Interests in the same proportions and amounts, but in the reverse order, as Realized Losses were allocated under Section 4.06(a)(i). 



Section 4.07          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 4.08          Commission Reporting. 



(a)        The Trustee and the Master Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with
the Trust’s satisfying the reporting requirements under the 1934 Act.

together with a copy of the Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report to be delivered by the Master Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.20 and 3.21 (including with respect to the Sub-Servicer and any other subservicer or subcontractor, if required to be

(d) below, file a Form 10-K, in substance as required by applicable law or applicable Securities and Exchange Commission staff’s interpretations and conforming to industry standards, with respect to the Trust Fund. Such Form 10-K shall include the Assessment of
Compliance, Attestation Report, Annual Statements of Compliance and other documentation provided by the Master Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.20 and 3.21 (including with respect to the Sub-Servicer and any other subservicer or subcontractor, if required to be filed)
and with respect to the Trustee, and the Form 10-K (the “Certification”) signed by the senior officer of the Depositor in charge of securitization; provided that the Depositor shall have received no later than March 15 of each calendar year prior to the

file an amended Form 10-K including such documents as exhibits reasonably promptly after they are delivered to the Depositor. 



            (iv)       As to each item of information required to be included in
any Form 10-D, Form 8-K or Form 10-K, the Depositor’s obligation to include the information in the applicable report is subject to receipt from the entity that is indicated in Exhibit O as the responsible party for providing that information, if other than the

(b)        The Depositor shall prepare and the appropriate person shall execute, in accordance with the Exchange
Act or any other applicable law, any certification required under the Exchange Act or any other applicable law to accompany the Form 10‐K or any other periodic report.  The Trustee shall sign a back-up certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit

ARTICLE V



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 1.


The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibits A‐1 through A‐15.  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 and attested 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 Book Entry 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 the Book-Entry Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another
Depository that agrees to hold the Book-Entry Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership Interests therein.  The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests in and to the Book-Entry 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 Master Servicer and if the Trustee is not the Book-Entry Custodian, the Trustee and 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, 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 Master 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 the exercise by Certificateholders of 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.  The Depositor is hereby authorized to execute and deliver on
behalf of the Trust the Letter of Representations to be submitted on behalf of the Trust to the Depository and to perform the obligations of the Issuer (as defined in the Letter of Representations) thereunder.  The Trustee is hereby authorized to execute and
deliver as agent of the Trust the Letter of Representations to be submitted on behalf of the Trust to the Depository and to perform the obligations of the Agent (as defined in the Letter of Representations) thereunder.  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, (ii) the Depositor notifies the Trustee and the Depository of its intent to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository and, upon receipt of notice of such intent from the Depository, the Depository Participants
with a position in the Book Entry Certificates agree to initiate such termination, or (iii) after the occurrence of a Master 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 issue the Definitive Certificates.  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 Master 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 8.12 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, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class B Certificate, Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or
Class R Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the 1933 Act and
laws.  In the event of any such transfer of any Class B Certificate to be made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial sale of the Class B Certificates to the initial purchasers or the initial issuance thereof),
then the Trustee shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certificate from the Class B Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J‐1A hereto
and a certificate from such Class B Certificateholder’s prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J‐1B hereto (which in the case of the Book-Entry Certificates, the Class B Certificateholder’s prospective transferee will
be deemed to have represented such certification).  In the event of any such transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R Certificate (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate
or Class R Certificates by the Depositor to the Seller or (ii) the transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R Certificates by the Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as
evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Trustee, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J‐2) under the 1933 Act, the Trustee and the Depositor shall require a written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in‐house counsel) acceptable
to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act,
which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Trust Fund or the Depositor or (ii) the Trustee shall require the transferor to execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit L) and the transferee
to execute an investment letter (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J‐2) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee certifying to the Depositor and the Trustee the facts surrounding such
transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Depositor.  The Holder of a Class B Certificate, Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to,
indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor and the Trust Fund 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)        Each Transferee of a Mezzanine Certificate will be deemed to have represented by virtue of its purchase or holding of
such Certificate (or interest therein) that either (a) such Transferee is not a Plan or purchasing such Certificate with Plan Assets as defined below, (b) it has acquired and is holding such Certificate in reliance on Prohibited Transaction Exemption
2002‐41 as amended from time to time (the “Exemption”), and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Exemption including that such Certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than
“BBB‐” (or its equivalent) by S&P, Fitch or Moody’s and the Certificate is so rated, or (c) the following conditions are satisfied:  (i) such Transferee is an insurance company, (ii) the source of funds used to purchase
or hold such Certificate (or interest therein) is an “insurance company general account” (as defined in U.S. Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 95‐60, and (iii) the conditions set forth in Sections I
and III of PTCE 95‐60 have been satisfied.  Each transferee of a Class B Certificate shall be deemed to have represented by its purchase or holding of such Certificate (or interest therein) that the conditions in clause (a) or clause (c)(i), (ii) and (iii)
have been satisfied.


No transfer of a Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R Certificate or any interest therein shall be made to any 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 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”) unless, in the case of the Class C Certificates or the Class P Certificates, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Master Servicer are provided with an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the satisfaction of the Depositor, the Trustee and the Master
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 Master Servicer, 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 Master Servicer,
the Trustee or the Trust Fund.  Neither an Opinion of Counsel nor any certification will be required in connection with the (i) initial transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R Certificate by the Depositor to the Seller or (ii) the
transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R Certificate by the Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller (in which case, the Depositor, the Seller and such Affiliate and such entities sponsored by such Affiliate shall have deemed to have
represented that the applicable transferee 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 Depositor of
the status of each transferee, the Seller or such an Affiliate.  Each transferee of a Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R Certificate shall sign a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit I to demonstrate its compliance with this
Section 5.02(c) (other than in connection with the (i) initial transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R Certificate by the Depositor to the Seller or (ii) the transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Class R
Certificate by the Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller. 


If any Certificate or any interest therein is acquired or held in violation of the provisions of the preceding 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 paragraph shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Master Servicer, 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)        Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or
acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably appointed the Depositor or its designee as its attorney‐in‐fact to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v) below
and to execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:



(i)         Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee
and shall promptly notify the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as a Permitted Transferee.



(ii)        No Person shall acquire an Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate unless such Ownership Interest is a pro
rata undivided interest.



(iii)       Except in connection with a transfer to an Affiliate of the Depositor, in connection with any proposed transfer of any
Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, the Trustee shall as a condition to registration of the transfer, require delivery to it, in form and substance satisfactory to it, of each of the following:



A.        an affidavit in the form of Exhibit K hereto from the proposed transferee to the effect that such transferee is a
Permitted Transferee and that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Class R Certificate that is the subject of the proposed transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee; and



B.         a covenant of the proposed transferee to the effect that the proposed transferee agrees to be bound by and to abide
by the transfer restrictions applicable to the Class R Certificates.



(iv)       Any attempted or purported transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate in violation of the provisions of this
Section shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee.  If any purported transferee shall, in violation of the provisions of this Section, become a Holder of a Class R Certificate, then the prior Holder of such Class
R Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall, upon discovery that the registration of transfer of such Class R Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section, be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of transfer
of such Class R Certificate.  The Trustee shall not be under any liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of a Class R Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section or for making any distributions due on such Class R Certificate
to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Trustee received the documents specified in clause (iii).  The Trustee shall be entitled to recover from any Holder of a Class R
Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time such distributions were made all distributions made on such Class R Certificate.  Any such distributions so recovered by the Trustee shall be distributed and delivered by the Trustee to the
prior Holder of such Class R Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee.



(v)        If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate in violation of
the restrictions in this Section, then the Trustee shall have the right but not the obligation, without notice to the Holder of such Class R Certificate or any other Person having an Ownership Interest therein, to notify the Depositor to arrange for the sale of such
Class R Certificate.  The proceeds of such sale, net of commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Depositor or its affiliates in connection with such sale), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Trustee to the previous Holder of
such Class R Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee, except that in the event that the Trustee determines that the Holder of such Class R Certificate may be liable for any amount due under this Section or any other provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee
may withhold a corresponding amount from such remittance as security for such claim.  The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (v) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Trustee and it shall not be liable to any Person having an
Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.



(vi)       If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate in violation of the
restrictions in this Section, then the Trustee will provide to the Internal Revenue Service, and to the persons designated in Section 860E(e)(3) of the Code, information needed to compute the tax imposed under Section 860E(e)(1) of the Code on such
transfer.


The foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to transfers occurring on or after the date on which there shall have been delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee, (i) written notification from each Rating Agency that the removal of the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section will not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade its rating of any of the Certificates and (ii) an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC.



(e)        Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or
agency of the Trustee designated from time to time for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12, the Trustee shall execute and 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 8.12.  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.



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


All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled by the Trustee and disposed of pursuant to its standard 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 Depositor such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them, and the Trust Fund, harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona
fide purchaser, 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 like tenor 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) in connection therewith.  Any
duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section, shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.



Section 5.04          Persons Deemed Owners.


The Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee and any agent of the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Trustee may treat the Person, including a Depository, 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 Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee nor any agent of any of them shall be affected
by notice to the contrary.




ARTICLE VI



THE MASTER SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR



Section 6.01          Liability of the Master Servicer and the Depositor.


The Depositor and the Master Servicer each shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this Agreement and undertaken hereunder by the
Depositor and the Master Servicer herein.



Section 6.02          Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor or the Master 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 Master Servicer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and its qualification as an approved conventional seller/servicer for Fannie
Mae or Freddie Mac in good standing.  The Depositor and the Master 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 Master 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 Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Master Servicer, as the case may be,
hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Master Servicer shall be qualified
to service mortgage loans on behalf of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac; and provided further that the Rating Agencies’ ratings of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B 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 to the Trustee).



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


None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust 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 Master Servicer or any such person
against any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as applicable, pursuant hereto, or against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of
willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.  The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the Master
Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Depositor, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of
the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense
incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.  Neither the Depositor nor the Master Servicer shall be under any obligation to
appear in, prosecute or defend any legal 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 and the Master 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
Master Servicer acts without the consent of Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights (which consent shall not be necessary in the case of litigation or other legal action by either to enforce their respective rights or defend themselves
hereunder), 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 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 and the Master 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 Master Servicer (except the Trustee to the extent it has succeeded the Master Servicer as required hereunder) indemnifies and holds the Trustee, the Depositor and the Trust Fund 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 Trustee, the Depositor or the Trust Fund may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Master
Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement.  The Master Servicer shall immediately notify 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 Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Depositor and/or the Trust Fund in respect of such claim.  The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of
this Agreement and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.



Section 6.04          Limitation on Resignation of Master Servicer.


The Master 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) with the written consent of the Trustee and written confirmation from each Rating Agency (which confirmation shall be furnished to the Depositor and the Trustee) that such resignation will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce the then
current rating of any of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates or the Class B Certificates.  Any such determination pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an
Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Master Servicer and delivered to the Trustee.  No resignation of the Master Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer shall have assumed the Master Servicer’s
responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations under this Agreement.


Except as expressly provided herein, the Master Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, nor delegate to or subcontract
with, nor authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Master Servicer hereunder.  The foregoing prohibition on assignment shall not prohibit the Master Servicer from designating a
Sub‐Servicer as payee of any indemnification amount payable to the Master 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 Master Servicer are transferred to a successor master servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee and other
compensation payable to the Master Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor master servicer.



Section 6.05          Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of the Master Servicer.


The Master Servicer shall afford (and any Sub‐Servicing Agreement shall provide that each Sub‐Servicer shall afford) the Depositor and the Trustee, upon reasonable notice, during
normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Master Servicer (and any such Sub‐Servicer) in respect of the Master Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Master Servicer (and those of any such
Sub‐Servicer) responsible for such obligations.  Upon request, the Master Servicer shall furnish to the Depositor and the Trustee its (and any such Sub‐Servicer’s) most recent financial statements and such other information relating to the
Master Servicer’s capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement that it possesses.  To the extent such information is not otherwise available to the public, the Depositor and the Trustee shall not disseminate any information obtained pursuant to
the preceding two sentences without the Master Servicer’s (or any such Sub‐Servicer’s) written consent, except as required pursuant to this Agreement or to the extent that it is necessary to do so (i) in working with legal counsel, auditors,
taxing authorities or other governmental agencies, rating agencies or reinsurers 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, the Trustee
or the Trust Fund, and in either case, the Depositor or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall use its best efforts to assure the confidentiality of any such disseminated non‐public information.  The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the
obligations of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer under this Agreement or exercise the rights of the Master Servicer under this Agreement;
provided that the Master 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 Master Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Master Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.

If a Master 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 Master 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, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Master 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 Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
proceeds thereof.  If a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (vii) or (viii) hereof shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (delivered immediately by facsimile and effective on the date of acknowledgement of
receipt in the case of a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clause (vii)) and the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
proceeds thereof.  On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer 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 Master 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 Master Servicer agrees, at its sole cost and expense, promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to such notice) to provide the Trustee with all documents and
records requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s functions under this Agreement, and to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master 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 Master Servicer to the Collection Account held by or on behalf of the Master Servicer,
or any REO Account or Servicing Account held by or on behalf of the Master Servicer or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property (provided, however, that the Master 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 Master Servicer Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of Trustee assigned to and working in the Trustee’s
Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Master Servicer Event of Default is received by the Trustee and such notice references the Certificates, any of the Trust REMICs or this
Agreement.


The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Master Servicer (or by the Trust Fund if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all costs associated with
the transfer of servicing from the predecessor master servicer, including without limitation, any costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by
the Trustee to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.



Section 7.02          Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.



(a)        On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination, the Trustee shall be the successor in all
respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter, which shall
be assumed by the Trustee (except for any representations or warranties of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Section 2.03(c) and its obligation to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant to
Section 3.12) by the terms and provisions hereof including, without limitation, the Master Servicer’s obligations to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.04; provided, 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 4.04; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master
Servicer’s failure to provide information required by Section 7.01 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties that there will be a
period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the servicing transfer is fully effected.  As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Master Servicer would have been
entitled if it had continued to act hereunder (other than amounts which were due or would become due to the Master Servicer prior to its termination or resignation).  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for
any Servicing Fee or for any differential in the amount of the Servicing Fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Master Servicer to act as successor Master Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for
herein.  After the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination, notwithstanding the above and subject to the next paragraph, the Trustee may, 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 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, having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000, as the successor to the Master Servicer under this Agreement in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the
Master Servicer under this Agreement.


No appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer under this Agreement shall be effective until the assumption by the successor of all of the Master 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 Master 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 Master Servicer under this Agreement, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided.


In connection with the termination or resignation of the Master Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor Master Servicer, including the Trustee if the Trustee is acting as successor Master
Servicer, shall represent and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, in which
case the predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to revise its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to the successor Master Servicer as necessary under MERS’ rules and regulations, or (ii) the
predecessor Master Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Master Servicer in causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices,
documents and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System to the successor Master Servicer. The predecessor Master Servicer shall file or cause to be filed
any such assignment in the appropriate recording office. The predecessor Master Servicer shall bear any and all fees of MERS, costs of preparing any assignments of Mortgage, and fees and costs of filing any assignments of Mortgage that may be required under this
Section 7.02(a).


Upon removal or resignation of the Master Servicer, the Trustee, with the cooperation of the Depositor, (x) shall solicit bids for a successor Master Servicer as described below and
(y) pending the appointment of a successor Master Servicer as a result of soliciting such bids, shall serve as Master Servicer of the Mortgage Loans serviced by such predecessor Master Servicer.  The Trustee shall solicit, by public announcement, bids from
housing and home finance institutions, banks and mortgage servicing institutions meeting the qualifications set forth in the first paragraph of this Section 7.02 (including the Trustee or any affiliate thereof).  Such public announcement shall specify that the
successor Master Servicer shall be entitled to the servicing compensation agreed upon between the Trustee, the successor Master Servicer and the Depositor; provided, however, that no such fee shall exceed the Servicing Fee.  Within thirty days after any such
public announcement, the Trustee with the cooperation of the Depositor, shall negotiate in good faith and effect the sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder to the qualified party submitting the highest satisfactory bid as
to the price they will pay to obtain such servicing.  The Trustee, upon receipt of the purchase price shall pay such purchase price to the Master Servicer being so removed, after deducting from any sum received by the Trustee from the successor to the Master
Servicer in respect of such sale, transfer and assignment all costs and expenses of any public announcement and of any sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities reasonably incurred hereunder.  After such deductions, the remainder
of such sum shall be paid by the Trustee to the Master Servicer at the time of such sale.



(b)        If the Master Servicer fails to remit to the Trustee for distribution to the Certificateholders any payment required to
be made under the terms of this Agreement (for purposes of this Section 7.02(b), a “Remittance”) because the Master Servicer is the subject of a proceeding under the Bankruptcy Code and the making of such Remittance is prohibited by Section 362
of the Bankruptcy Code, the Trustee shall upon written notice of such prohibition, regardless of whether it has received a notice of termination under Section 7.01, shall be treated as though it had succeeded to the Master Servicer and shall advance the amount
of such Remittance by depositing such amount in the Distribution Account on the related Distribution Date.  The Trustee shall be obligated to make such advance only if (i) such advance, in the good faith judgment of the Trustee can reasonably be expected to
be ultimately recoverable from Stayed Funds and (ii) the Trustee is not prohibited by law from making such advance or obligating itself to do so.  Upon remittance of the Stayed Funds to the Trustee or the deposit thereof in the Distribution Account by the
Master Servicer, a trustee in bankruptcy or a federal bankruptcy court, the Trustee may recover the amount so advanced, without interest, by withdrawing such amount from the Distribution Account; however, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to affect the
Trustee’s rights to recover from the Master Servicer’s own funds interest on the amount of any such advance.  If the Trustee at any time makes an advance under this subsection which it later determines in its good faith judgment will not be
ultimately recoverable from the Stayed Funds with respect to which such advance was made, the Trustee shall be entitled to reimburse itself for such advance, without interest, by withdrawing from the Distribution Account, out of amounts on deposit therein, an amount
equal to the portion of such advance attributable to the Stayed Funds.



Section 7.03          Notification to Certificateholders.



(a)        Upon any termination of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 above or any appointment of a successor to the
Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 above, the Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to 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 Master 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 all Holders of Certificates notice of each such
occurrence, unless such default or Master Servicer Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.



Section 7.04          Waiver of Master Servicer Events of Default.


The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights evidenced by all Classes of Certificates affected by any default or Master Servicer Event of Default hereunder may waive such default
or Master Servicer Event of Default; provided, however, that a default or Master 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.  Upon any such
waiver of a default or Master Servicer Event of Default, such default or Master 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 Master Servicer Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.




ARTICLE VIII



THE TRUSTEE



Section
8.01          Duties of Trustee.


The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default and after the curing of all Master 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 Master 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 the Trustee which are specifically required to be
furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement.  If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the
Trustee shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee’s satisfaction, the Trustee will provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders.


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 Master Servicer Event of Default, and after the curing of all such Master 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 not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically
set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the
correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee 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 the Trustee unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and



(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 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 the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred
upon the Trustee, under 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 conclusively upon and shall be fully 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 and the manner of obtaining consents and evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe;



(ii)        The Trustee may consult with counsel and any Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection
in respect of any action taken or suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel;



(iii)       The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Agreement or to
institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee security or
indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default (which has not
been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent 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 Master Servicer Event of Default hereunder and after the curing of all Master 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 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 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 custodians, nominees or attorneys and shall not be responsible for any willful misconduct or negligence of such agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys (as long as such agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys are appointed with due and proper
care);



(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 Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12 or the Holders of the majority of the Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates, pursuant to Section 4.09, as applicable; and



(viii)      Except as otherwise expressly provided herein, none of the provisions of this Agreement shall require the Trustee to expend or
risk its own funds or otherwise to incur any liability, financial or otherwise, in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers (not including expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee
including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee’s performance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) if it shall have reasonable grounds for believing that repayment of
such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it.



(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
8.03          Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.


The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature of the Trustee, the execution and authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates, the acknowledgments of the
Trustee contained in Article II and the representations and warranties of the Trustee in Section 8.13) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor, and the Trustee shall not assume any responsibility for their correctness.  The Trustee makes no
representations or warranties as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement (other than as specifically set forth in Section 8.13) or of the Certificates (other than execution and authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan
or related document.  The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of the Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Master Servicer in
respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Master Servicer, other than any funds held by or on behalf of the Trustee in accordance with Section 3.10.



Section
8.04          Trustee May Own Certificates.


The Trustee in its individual capacity or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Certificates with the same rights it would have if it were not Trustee and may transact banking
and/or trust business with the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer or their Affiliates.



Section
8.05          Trustee’s Fees and Expenses.



(a)        On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall pay to the Trustee as specified in a separate agreement between the Depositor
and the Trustee.  The Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date and pay to itself the Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date and one day’s interest earnings (net of losses) on amounts on deposit in the Distribution
Account.  The right to receive the Trustee Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Trustee’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.


The Trustee, and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (not including
expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee’s performance in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement) incurred by the Trustee arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its obligations (including, without limitation, its obligation to enter into the Cap Assignment) and duties under this Agreement, other than any loss,
liability or expense (i) in any way relating to the failure of the Master Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement, (ii) that constitutes a specific liability of the Trustee pursuant to
Section 4.08 or 10.01(c) or (iii) 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 reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder, including as a
result of a breach of the Trustee’s obligations under Article X hereof.  Any amounts payable to the Trustee or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee in respect of the indemnification provided by this paragraph (a), or pursuant to any
other right of reimbursement from the Trust Fund that the Trustee or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee may have hereunder in its capacity as such, may be withdrawn by the Trustee from the Distribution Account at any time.  Such indemnity
shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the resignation of the Trustee.


As a limitation on the foregoing with respect to certain expenses of the Trustee, the Trustee shall receive from the Trust Fund amounts with respect to indemnification for counsel fees and
expenses (collectively, “Legal Fees”) in connection with any third‐party litigation or other claims alleging violations of laws or regulations relating to consumer lending and/or servicing of the Trust Fund (collectively, “Third Party
Claims”) in an amount not greater than $25,000 per month, and $600,000 in the aggregate (with amounts in excess of $25,000 for any month carried‐forward to subsequent months, until the $600,000 aggregate maximum is reached).  The Trustee shall have
no obligation to incur additional expenses for which reimbursement is limited pursuant to this paragraph in excess of the aggregate limit set forth above unless it has received reasonable security or indemnity for such additional expenses.  The
Certificateholders shall hold the Trustee harmless for any consequences to such Certificateholders resulting from any failure of the Trustee to incur any such additional expenses in excess of the aforementioned aggregate limit.



(b)        Without limiting the Master Servicer’s indemnification obligations under Section 6.03, the Master Servicer
agrees to indemnify the Trustee from, and hold it harmless against, any loss, liability or expense resulting from a breach of the Master Servicer’s obligations and duties under this Agreement.  Such indemnity shall survive the termination or discharge of
this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Trustee.  Any payment under this Section 8.05(b) made by the Master Servicer to the Trustee shall be from the Master Servicer’s own funds, without reimbursement from the Trust Fund
therefor.



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 Seller, the Master 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 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 or Removal of 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 Master Servicer and the Certificateholders.  Upon
receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee and to the successor Trustee acceptable to the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights.  A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Master 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 if at
any time the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property or affairs for
the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee and the Depositor may appoint a successor Trustee, acceptable to the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, 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 and the Master Servicer by the Depositor.


The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument or instruments, in
triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys‐in‐fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. 
A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Master 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. 



Section
8.08          Successor Trustee.


Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective and such successor Trustee, 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, as well as all moneys, held by it hereunder (other
than any Mortgage Files at the time held by a 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 the ratings 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 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 1, or property securing the same
may at the time be located, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co‐trustee or co‐trustees, jointly with the
Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of REMIC 1, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to REMIC 1, or any part thereof and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such
powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable.  If the Master Servicer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case
a Master Servicer Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment.  No co‐trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor
trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co‐trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08 hereof.  If such appointment is at the request of the Master Servicer
then any expense of the Trustee shall be deemed a Servicing Advance for all purpose of this Agreement, otherwise it will be an expense of the Trustee and will be payable out of the Trustee’s funds.


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 the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to REMIC 1,
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.


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.



Section
8.11          Appointment of Custodians.


The Trustee may, with the consent of the Depositor and the Master Servicer, appoint one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee, by entering
into a Custodial Agreement.  The Trustee shall initially serve as the Custodian and this Agreement shall serve as the Custodial Agreement.  The appointment of any Custodian may at any time be terminated and a substitute Custodian appointed therefor upon the
reasonable request of the Master Servicer to the Trustee, the consent to which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  The Trustee shall pay any and all fees and expenses of any Custodian (other than the Washington Mutual Custodian) in accordance with each
Custodial Agreement.  Subject to Article VIII hereof, the Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of each Custodial Agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit of the Certificateholders having an interest
in any Mortgage File held by such Custodian.  Each 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.  Each Custodial Agreement may be amended only as provided in Section 11.01.  In no event shall the appointment of any Custodian pursuant to a Custodial Agreement diminish the obligations
of the Trustee hereunder.  The Trustee shall at all times remain responsible under the terms of this Agreement notwithstanding the fact that certain duties have been assigned to the Custodian (other than the Washington Mutual Custodian), but only to the extent
the Trustee is responsible for its own acts hereunder.  Any documents delivered by the Depositor or the Master Servicer to a Custodian other than the Trustee, if any, shall be deemed to have been delivered to the Trustee for all purposes hereunder; and any
documents held by such a Custodian, if any, shall be deemed to be held by the Trustee for all purposes hereunder.  In order to comply with its duties under the U.S. Patriot Act, the Custodian shall obtain and verify certain information and documentation from the
other parties to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, such parties’ name, address, and other identifying information.



Section
8.12          Appointment of Office or Agency.


The Trustee will appoint an office or agency in the City of New York 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.  As of the Closing Date, the Trustee designates its offices located at the office of Trustee’s agent, located at DB Services Tennessee,
648 Grassmere Park Road, Nashville, TN 37211-3658, Attn: Transfer Unit for such purpose.



Section
8.13          Representations and Warranties of the Trustee.


The Trustee hereby represents and warrants to the Master 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.



(ii)        the execution and delivery of this Agreement, and the performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement, will
not violate its charter 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 Master Servicer and the Depositor, constitutes its
valid, legal and binding obligation, 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.




ARTICLE IX



TERMINATION



Section 9.01          Termination Upon Purchase or Liquidation of All Mortgage Loans.



(a)        Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and the Trustee (other than the obligations of the Master Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.05 and of the Master Servicer to provide for and the Trustee to make payments in respect of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests, REMIC 2
Regular Interests and the Classes of Certificates as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon the 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) of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC 1 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 1; provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of
Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.  The purchase by the Terminator of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC 1 shall be at a price (the
“Termination Price”) equal to (a) if the Terminator is the Master Servicer purchasing the Mortgage Loans and the REO Properties on its own behalf, 100% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all the Mortgage Loans included in REMIC 1 and
accrued interest on the Stated Principal Balance of each such Mortgage Loan at the applicable Net Mortgage Rate in effect from time to time from the Due Date as to which interest was last paid by the related Mortgagor or by an advance by the Master Servicer to but
not including the first day of the month in which such purchase is to be effected, plus the appraised value of each REO Property, if any, included in REMIC 1, such appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser selected by the Terminator in its reasonable discretion and
(b) if the Terminator is the Master Servicer purchasing the Mortgage Loans and the REO Properties at the request of and on behalf of an unaffiliated third party, the greater of (A) the aggregate Purchase Price of all the Mortgage Loans included in
REMIC 1, plus the appraised value of each REO Property, if any, included in REMIC 1, such appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser selected by the Terminator in its reasonable discretion, and (B) the aggregate fair market value of all of the assets of
REMIC 1 (as determined by the Terminator, 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).



(b)        The Master Servicer shall have the right (when exercising such right, the “Terminator”) to purchase all of
the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC 1 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 1 pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph 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 equal to or less than 10% of the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Closing Date Mortgage Loans.  Additionally, if the Terminator is the Master Servicer purchasing the Mortgage Loans and
the REO Properties on its own behalf, the Terminator may elect to  purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property in REMIC 1 pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph only if the Termination Price is equal to or less than the aggregate fair
market value of all of the assets of REMIC 1 (as determined by the Terminator, 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
Section 9.01(c)), less unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances (other than Advances and Servicing Advances made with respect to Mortgage Loans as to which the Master Servicer expects that that foreclosure is not imminent).



(c)        Notice of the liquidation of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests shall be given promptly by the Trustee by letter to
Certificateholders 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 15th day and not later than the 25th 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 final
payment in respect of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests and the related 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 1 Regular Interests or the related 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 designated in such notice for purposes of such surrender.  The Trustee shall remit to the Master Servicer from such
funds deposited in the Distribution Account (i) any amounts which the Master 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
Master 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 9.01(d) below.  Upon certification to the Trustee by a Servicing
Representative of the making of such final deposit, the Trustee shall promptly release or cause to be released 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 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 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 remaining related 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 funds.  If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee
shall pay to WaMu Capital Corp. and Goldman, Sachs & Co., equally, 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.


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 1 pursuant to Section 9.01, the Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements:



(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 with respect to each Trust REMIC, as
evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor 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 1 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 Class R 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 Trustee 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 the Section 9.02(a).



(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.




ARTICLE X



REMIC PROVISIONS



Section 10.01      REMIC Administration.



(a)        The Trustee shall elect to treat each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the Code and, if necessary, under applicable state
law.  Each such election will be made on Form 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return (including Form 8811) or any appropriate state return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are
issued.  For the purposes of the REMIC election in respect of REMIC 1, the REMIC 1 Regular Interests shall be designated as the Regular Interests in REMIC 1 and the Class R‐1 Interest shall be designated as the Residual Interest in REMIC 1.  For the
purposes of the REMIC election in respect of REMIC 2, the REMIC 2 Regular Interests shall be designated as the Regular Interests in REMIC 2 and the Class R-2 Interest shall be designated as the Residual Interest in REMIC 2.  The Trustee shall not permit
the creation of any “interests” in REMIC 1 and REMIC 2 (within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code) other than the REMIC 1 Regular Interests and the interests represented by the Certificates.



(b)        The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each Trust REMIC within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.



(c)        The Trustee shall pay, out of funds on deposit in the Distribution Account, any and all expenses relating to any tax
audit of the Trust Fund (including, but not limited to, any professional fees or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to any Trust REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities) unless such expenses, professional fees or
any administrative or judicial proceedings are incurred by reason of the Trustee’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence.  The Trustee, as agent for each Trust REMIC’s tax matters person, shall (i) act on behalf of the Trust Fund in
relation to any tax matter or controversy involving any Trust REMIC and (ii) represent the Trust Fund in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto and will be entitled
to reimbursement from the Trust Fund for any expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection therewith unless such administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority is incurred by reason of the
Trustee’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence.  The holder of the largest Percentage Interest of the Class R 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 each Trust REMIC created hereunder.  By its acceptance thereof, each such holder hereby agrees to irrevocably appoint the Trustee or an Affiliate as its agent to perform all of the duties of the
tax matters person of each respective REMIC.



(d)        The Trustee shall prepare, sign and file in a timely manner, all of the Tax Returns in respect of each REMIC created
hereunder.  The expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Trustee without any right of reimbursement therefor.  The Master Servicer shall provide on a timely basis to the Trustee or its designee such information with respect to the
assets of the Trust Fund as is in its possession and reasonably required by the Trustee to enable it to perform its respective obligations under this Article.



(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 such other
compliance guidance, the Trustee shall provide (i) to any Transferor of a Class R Certificate (or other person designated in Section 860E(e)(3) of the Code) and to the Internal Revenue Service such information as is necessary for the computation of any tax
relating to the transfer of a Class R 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
Master Servicer shall provide on a timely basis to the Trustee such information with respect to the assets of the Trust Fund, including, without limitation, the Mortgage Loans, as is in its possession and reasonably required by the Trustee to enable it to perform its
obligations under this subsection.  In addition, 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 created hereunder to take such action as shall
be necessary to create or maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions (and the Master Servicer shall assist the Trustee, to the extent reasonably requested by the Trustee to do specific actions in order to assist in the maintenance of such
status).  The Trustee shall not take any action, 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 set forth in Section 860F(a) 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 shall have 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 Master Servicer take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder)
as to which the Trustee 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 Master 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 assets thereof, or causing any Trust REMIC to take any action, which is not
contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer will consult with the Trustee or its designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to a Trust REMIC, and the Master Servicer shall
not take any such action or cause any Trust REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur; provided that the Master 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 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 1 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.



(g)        If any tax is imposed on prohibited transactions of any Trust REMIC created hereunder pursuant to Section 860F(a)
of the Code, on the net income from foreclosure property of  any such REMIC pursuant to Section 860G(c) of the Code, or on any contributions to any such REMIC after the Startup Day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or if 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 Master Servicer pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations under Article III or this Article X, or (iii) otherwise
against amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account and shall be paid by withdrawal therefrom.



(h)        On or before April 15 of each calendar year commencing after the date of this Agreement, the Trustee shall deliver to
the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency a Certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Trustee stating the Trustee’s compliance with this Article X.



(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, the Trustee shall not 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 any Trust REMIC to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject any Trust 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 Master Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which any Trust REMIC will receive a fee
or other compensation for services or permit any Trust 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.



(l)         [The Trustee shall treat each of the Reserve Fund and the Cap Account as an outside reserve fund within the
meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h) that is owned by the Holders of the Class C Certificates and that is not an asset of any REMIC.  For federal and state income tax purposes, payments in respect of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and
the Class B 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 860G(a)(1).  For federal tax return and information reporting, the right of the
Certificateholders to receive payment on account of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates from the Cap Account shall be assigned a value of [$10,000].]



Section 10.02      Prohibited Transactions and Activities.


None of the Depositor, the Master 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 1, (iii) the termination of REMIC 1 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 shall have received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee 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      Trustee, Master Servicer and Depositor Indemnification.



(a)        The Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the Depositor and the Master Servicer for any taxes and costs including,
without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Master Servicer as a result of a breach of the Trustee’s covenants set forth in this Article X or any state, local or franchise taxes
imposed upon the Trust as a result of the location of the Trustee.



(b)        The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the Depositor and the Trustee for any taxes and costs including,
without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Trustee as a result of a breach of the Master Servicer’s covenants set forth in Article III or this Article X or any state, local
or franchise taxes imposed upon the Trust as a result of the location of the Master Servicer or any subservicer.



(c)        The Depositor agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer and the Trustee for any taxes and costs including,
without limitation, any reasonable attorneys’ fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer or the Trustee as a result of a breach of the Depositor’s covenants set forth in this Article X.




ARTICLE XI



MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS



Section 11.01      Amendment.


This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, if applicable, the Custodian 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 in any Custodial Agreement, (iii) to modify, eliminate
or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary or desirable to maintain the qualification of the Trust Fund as a REMIC at all times that any Certificate is outstanding or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on the Trust
Fund pursuant to the Code that would be a claim against the Trust Fund, provided that the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such
qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (B) such action will not adversely affect the status of the Trust Fund as a REMIC or adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or
(iv) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement or in any Custodial Agreement which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement, provided that, in each case, such
action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the parties hereto, adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder and, provided, further, that (A) such action will not affect in any material respect the
permitted activities of the Trust and (B) such action will not increase in any material respect the degree of discretion which the Master Servicer is allowed to exercise in servicing the Mortgage Loans.  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 or any Custodial Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and, if applicable, the Custodian, with the consent of 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 any Custodial 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 in a manner, other than as described in (i), without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing at least
66% of the Voting Rights allocated to such Class, 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 Master 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, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel 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.


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 or the Trust Fund.


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

Section 11.09      [Reserved].



Section 11.10      Grant of Security Interest.


It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans and the other property specified in Section 2.01 by the Depositor to the Trustee be, and be construed
as, a sale and not a pledge 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 or other property conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 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 and all other property conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 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 and all other property conveyed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 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.

LONG BEACH SECURITIES CORP., as Depositor



 


            Principal in respect of this Certificate is distributable monthly as set forth herein. Accordingly, the Certificate Principal
Balance of this Class A‐1 Certificate at any time may be less than the Initial Certificate Principal Balance set forth on the face hereof, as described herein.  This Class A‐1 Certificate does not evidence an obligation of, or an interest in, and is

further provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.

Asset-Backed Certificates,

Series 2006‐A




            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the
Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

Asset-Backed Certificates,

Series 2006‐A




            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the
Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A

Asset-Backed Certificates,

Series 2006‐A




            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement. 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
therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and

Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A

Asset-Backed Certificates,

Series 2006‐A




            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

            Principal in respect of this Certificate is distributable monthly as set forth herein. Accordingly, the Certificate Principal
Balance of this Class M-5 Certificate at any time may be less than the Initial Certificate Principal Balance set forth on the face hereof, as described herein.  This Class M-5 Certificate does not evidence an obligation of, or an interest in, and is not

“Depositor”).  The Trust was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2006 (the “Agreement”) among the Depositor, Long Beach Mortgage Company, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”) and
Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”).  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Class M-5 Certificate is issued under and is subject to the
terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Class M-5 Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.




            Reference is hereby made to the further provisions of this Class M-5 Certificate set forth on the reverse hereof, which further
provisions shall for all purposes have the same effect as if set forth at this place.




            This Class M-5 Certificate shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Agreement or be valid for any purpose unless manually
countersigned by an authorized signatory of the Trustee.










            IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust has caused this Certificate to be duly executed.

            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

Class B-1





evidencing the Percentage Interest in the distributions allocable to the Certificates of the
above-referenced Class with respect to the Trust consisting of second lien, fixed rate mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”)





LONG BEACH SECURITIES CORP., as Depositor




            Principal in respect of this Certificate is distributable monthly as set forth herein. Accordingly, the Certificate Principal
Balance of this Class B‐1 Certificate at any time may be less than the Initial Certificate Principal Balance set forth on the face hereof, as described herein.  This Class B‐1 Certificate does not evidence an obligation of, or an interest in, and is
not guaranteed by the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee referred to below or any of their respective affiliates.




            This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Class B‐1
Certificate (obtained by dividing the Denomination of this Class B‐1 Certificate by the Original Class Certificate Principal Balance) in certain monthly distributions with respect to a Trust consisting primarily of the Mortgage Loans deposited by Long Beach
Securities Corp. (the “Depositor”).  The Trust was created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2006 (the “Agreement”) among the Depositor, Long Beach Mortgage Company, as master servicer (the “Master
Servicer”) and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”).  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Class B‐1 Certificate is issued
under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Class B‐1 Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.




            No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of a Certificate of this Class shall be made unless such disposition is exempt
from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the 1933 Act and laws.  In the event that a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration under the 1933 Act
(other than in connection with the initial sale of thereof to the initial purchasers or the initial issuance thereof), then the Trustee 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 substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J-1A to the Agreement and a certificate from such Certificateholder's prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J-1B to the Agreement
(which in the case of the Book-Entry Certificates, the Certificateholder and the Certificateholder's prospective transferee will be deemed to have represented such certification).  The Holder hereof desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby
agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the Depositor 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.

Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A

Asset-Backed Certificates,

Series 2006‐A




            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A

Asset-Backed Certificates,

Series 2006‐A




            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

LONG BEACH SECURITIES CORP., as Depositor




            Principal in respect of this Certificate is distributable monthly as set forth herein.  Accordingly, the Certificate

from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the 1933 Act and laws.  In the event that a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Act and such laws, in order to
assure compliance with the Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and such Certificateholder's prospective transferee shall each certify to the Trustee and the Depositor in writing the facts surrounding the transfer.  In
the event that such a transfer is not to be made pursuant to Rule 144A of the Act, there shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor an Opinion of Counsel that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not
be obtained at the expense of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Depositor; or there shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor a transferor certificate by the transferor and an investment letter shall be executed by the transferee.  The Holder
hereof desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the Depositor 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.

Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as

of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed

designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder

            No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the

Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A

Asset-Backed Certificates,

Series 2006‐A




            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐A (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.




            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Trustee is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the
Agreement.




            This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights
and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee.




            Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, a distribution will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a
Business Day then the first Business Day following such Distribution Date (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the first Distribution Date specified on the face hereof, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of
business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution
Date pursuant to the Agreement.




            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

            Distributions on this Certificate shall be made by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as
it appears on the Certificate Register or by wire transfer or otherwise, as set forth in the Agreement.  The final distribution on each Certificate will be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency
of the Trustee specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.




            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by
such amendment, as specified in the Agreement. 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
therefor 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 of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.




            The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement. As
provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and 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, but the Trustee may require payment of a sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.




            The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any agent of the Depositor, the Master 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.




            On any Distribution Date following the date at which the remaining Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties is equal to or less than 10% of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, the Master Servicer may purchase, in whole, from the Trust the Mortgage Loans in the manner and at a purchase price determined as provided in the
Agreement.  In the event that no such optional termination occurs, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon notice to the Trustee upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balances
of the Regular Certificates have been reduced to zero and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan in the Trust.




            Capitalized terms used herein that are defined in the Agreement shall have the meanings ascribed to them in the Agreement, and
nothing herein shall be deemed inconsistent with that meaning.

Re:       Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐A, Asset-Backed Certificates



Series 2006‐A (the “Class B Certificates”) 


Ladies and Gentlemen:


            This certificate is being delivered in connection with the sale by [___________________] (the “Transferor”) to
[_______________] (the “Transferee”) of Class B Certificates having an Initial Certificate Principal Balance as of May 10, 2006 (the “Closing Date”) of $[____________] (the “Transferred Certificates”).  The Class B
Certificates, including the Transferred Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of May 1, 2006 (the “Agreement”) among Long Beach Securities Corp., as depositor (the “Depositor”), Long Beach Mortgage
Company, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”) and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”).  All capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the
Agreement.  The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Trustee, and for the benefit of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Trust Fund and the Transferee, that:





            1.         The Transferor is the lawful owner of the
Transferred Certificates with the full right to transfer such Class B Certificates free from any and all claims and encumbrances whatsoever.





            2.         Neither the Transferor nor anyone acting on its
behalf has (a) offered, transferred, pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of any Transferred Certificate, any interest in any Transferred Certificate or any other similar security to any person in any manner, (b) solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer, pledge
or other disposition of any Transferred Certificate, any interest in any Transferred Certificate or any other similar security from any person in any manner, (c) otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to any Transferred Certificate, any interest in any
Transferred Certificate or any other similar security with any person in any manner, (d) made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or (e) taken any other action, which (in the case of any of the acts described in clauses
(a) through (e) hereof) would constitute a distribution of any Transferred Certificate under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), or would render the disposition of any Transferred Certificate a violation of Section 5 of the
Securities Act or any state securities laws, or would require registration or qualification of any Transferred Certificate pursuant to the Securities Act or any state securities laws.





            3.         The Transferor and any person acting on behalf of
the Transferor in this matter reasonably believe that the Transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A (“Rule 144A”) under the Securities Act (a “Qualified Institutional Buyer”) purchasing
for its own account or for the account of a Qualified Institutional Buyer. In determining whether the Transferee is a Qualified Institutional Buyer, the Transferor and any person acting on behalf of the Transferor in this matter have relied upon the following
method(s) of establishing the Transferee's ownership and discretionary investments of securities (check one or more):





___      (a)  The Transferee's most recent publicly available financial statements, which statements present the
information as of a date within 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred Certificate in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or





___      (b)  The most recent publicly available information appearing in documents filed by the Transferee with the
Securities and Exchange Commission or another United States federal, state, or local governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, or with a foreign governmental agency or self-regulatory organization, which information is as of a date within 16 months
preceding the date of sale of the Transferred Certificate in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or





___      (c)  The most recent publicly available information appearing in a recognized securities manual, which
information is as of a date within 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred Certificate in the case of a U.S. purchaser and within 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign purchaser; or





___      (d)  A certification by the chief financial officer, a person fulfilling an equivalent function, or other
executive officer of the Transferee, specifying the amount of securities owned and invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee as of a specific date on or since the close of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year, or, in the case of a Transferee that
is a member of a “family of investment companies”, as that term is defined in Rule 144A, a certification by an executive officer of the investment adviser specifying the amount of securities owned by the “family of investment companies” as of
a specific date on or since the close of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year.





            4.         The Transferor and any person acting on behalf of
the Transferor understand that in determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and invested on a discretionary basis by an entity for purposes of establishing whether such entity is a Qualified Institutional Buyer:





(a) the following instruments and interests shall be excluded:  securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee; if the Transferee is a dealer
securities that are part of an unsold allotment to or subscription by the Transferee as a participant in a public offering; securities of issuers that are part of the Transferee's “family of investment companies”, if the Transferee is a registered
investment company; bank deposit notes and certificates of deposit; loan participations; repurchase agreements; securities owned but subject to a repurchase agreement; and currency, interest rate and commodity swaps;





(b) the aggregate value of the securities shall be the cost of such securities, except where the entity reports its securities holdings in its financial statements on
the basis of their market value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities has been published, in which case the securities may be valued at market;





(c) securities owned by subsidiaries of the entity that are consolidated with the entity in its financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles may be included if the investments of such subsidiaries are managed under the direction of the entity, except that, unless the entity is a reporting company under Section 13 or 15(d) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, securities
owned by such subsidiaries may not be included if the entity itself is a majority-owned subsidiary that would be included in the consolidated financial statements of another enterprise.





            5.         The Transferor or a person acting on its behalf has
taken reasonable steps to ensure that the Transferee is aware that the Transferor is relying on the exemption from the provisions of Section 5 of the Securities Act provided by Rule 144A.





            6.         The Transferor or a person
acting on its behalf has furnished, or caused to be furnished, to the Transferee all information requested by the Transferee regarding (a) the Transferred Certificates and payments thereon, (b) the nature and performance of the Mortgage Loans, (c) the Agreement, and
(d) any credit enhancement mechanism associated with the Transferred Certificates.



 



Very truly yours,

                        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, unless the Transferee reports its securities holdings in its financial
statements on the basis of their market value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities has been published, in which case the securities were valued at market. 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, as amended.




                        5.         The
Transferee acknowledges that it is familiar with Rule 144A and understands that the Transferor and other parties related to the Transferred Certificates are relying and will continue to rely on the statements made herein because one or more sales to the Transferee
may be in reliance on Rule 144A.




            ___     
___                  Will the Transferee be purchasing the Transferred Certificates


            Yes     
No                   only for the Transferee's own account?




                        6.         If
the answer to the foregoing question is “no”, then in each case where the Transferee is purchasing for an account other than its own, such account belongs to a third party that is itself a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of
Rule 144A, and the “qualified institutional buyer” status of such third party has been established by the Transferee through one or more of the appropriate methods contemplated by 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 Transferred 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 any updated annual financial statements that become available on or before
the date of such purchase, promptly after they become available.

ANNEX 2 TO EXHIBIT J-1B



QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER STATUS UNDER SEC RULE 144A



[for Transferees that are Registered Investment Companies]




                        The undersigned hereby certifies as follows to [name of
Transferor] (the “Transferor”) and [name of Trustee], as Trustee, with respect to the Class B Certificates being transferred (the “Transferred Certificates”) as described in the Transferee Certificate to which this certification relates and to
which this certification is an Annex:




                        1.         As
indicated below, the undersigned is the chief financial officer, a person fulfilling an equivalent function, or other executive officer of the entity purchasing the Transferred Certificates (the “Transferee”) or, if the Transferee is a “qualified
institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144A”), because the Transferee is part of a Family of Investment Companies (as defined below), is an executive officer of the investment
adviser (the “Adviser”).




                        2.         The
Transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A because (i) the Transferee is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and (ii) as marked below, the Transferee alone owned and/or
invested on a discretionary basis, or the Transferee's Family of Investment Companies owned, at least $100,000,000 in securities (other than the excluded securities referred to below) as of the end of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year. For purposes
of determining the amount of securities owned by the Transferee or the Transferee's Family of Investment Companies, the cost of such securities was used, unless the Transferee or any member of the Transferee's Family of Investment Companies, as the case
may be, reports its securities holdings in its financial statements on the basis of their market value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities has been published, in which case the securities of such entity were valued at
market.




____                The Transferee owned and/or invested on a
discretionary basis $[__________________] in securities (other than 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).





____                The Transferee is part of a Family of Investment
Companies which owned in the aggregate $[_____________] in securities (other than 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).




                        3.         The
term “Family of Investment Companies” as used herein means two or more registered investment companies (or series thereof) that have the same investment adviser or investment advisers that are affiliated (by virtue of being majority owned
subsidiaries of the same parent or because one investment adviser is a majority owned subsidiary of the other).




                        4.         The
term “securities” as used herein does not include (i) securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee or are part of the Transferee's Family of Investment Companies, (ii) bank deposit notes and certificates of deposit, (iii)
loan participations, (iv) repurchase agreements, (v) securities owned but subject to a repurchase agreement and (vi) currency, interest rate and commodity swaps. For purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and/or invested on a discretionary
basis by the Transferee, or owned by the Transferee's Family of Investment Companies, the securities referred to in this paragraph were excluded.




                        5.         The
Transferee is familiar with Rule 144A and understands that the parties to which this certification is being made are relying and will continue to rely on the statements made herein because one or more sales to the Transferee will be in reliance on Rule
144A.





____   
____                Will the Transferee be purchasing the Transferred Certificates only for the Transferee's own account?



 Yes     
No                  




                        6.         If
the answer to the foregoing question is “no”, then in each case where the Transferee is purchasing for an account other than its own, such account belongs to a third party that is itself a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of
Rule 144A, and the “qualified institutional buyer” status of such third party has been established by the Transferee through one or more of the appropriate methods contemplated by Rule 144A.





                       
7.         The undersigned will notify the parties to which this certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein. Until such notice, the Transferee's purchase of the Transferred Certificates
will constitute a reaffirmation of this certification by the undersigned as of the date of such purchase.

[For Transferees That are Registered Investment Companies]




            The undersigned (the “Buyer”) hereby certifies as follows to the parties listed in the Rule 144A Transferee
Certificate to which this certification relates with respect to the Certificates described therein:




            1.         As indicated below, the undersigned is the chief financial officer, a person
fulfilling an equivalent function, or other executive officer of the entity purchasing the Certificates or, if the Buyer is a “qualified institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule
144A”) because Buyer is part of a Family of Investment Companies (as defined below), is an executive officer of the investment adviser (the “Adviser”).




            2.         In connection with purchases by Buyer, the Buyer is a “qualified

statements on the basis of their market value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities has been published, in which case, the securities of such entity were valued at market.

recent fiscal year (such amount being calculated in accordance with Rule 144A).

Companies” as used herein means two or more registered investment companies (or series thereof) that have the same investment adviser or investment advisers that are affiliated (by virtue of being majority owned subsidiaries of the same parent or because

            4.         The term “securities” as used herein does not include (i)
securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Buyer or are part of the Buyer's Family of Investment Companies, (ii) bank deposit notes and certificates of deposit, (iii) loan participations, (iv) repurchase agreements, (v) securities owned but subject

 Yes     
No                  




            6.         If the answer to the foregoing question is “no”, then in each
case where the Buyer is purchasing for an account other than its own, such account belongs to a third party that is itself a “qualified institutional buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A, and the “qualified institutional buyer” status of
such third party has been established by the Buyer through one or more of the appropriate methods contemplated by Rule 144A.



            7.         Until the date of purchase of the Certificates, the
undersigned will notify the parties listed in the Rule 144A Transferee Certificate to which this certification relates of any changes in the information and conclusions herein.  Until such notice is given, the Buyer's purchase of the Certificates will
constitute a reaffirmation of this certification by the undersigned as of the date of such purchase.

STATE OF ____________     )

                                                     
) ss.:

COUNTY OF __________      )




            The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:




            1.         The undersigned is an officer of ________________________, the proposed
Transferee of an Ownership Interest in the Class R Certificate (the “Certificate”) issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of May 1, 2006 (the “Agreement”), relating to the above-referenced Certificates, among Long
Beach Securities Corp., as depositor (the “Depositor”), Long Beach Mortgage Company, as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”) and as seller and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”).  Capitalized
terms used, but not defined herein shall have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.  The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.




            2.         The Transferee is, as of the date hereof and will be, as of the date of the
Transfer, a Permitted Transferee.  The Transferee is acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Certificate either (i) for its own account or (ii) as nominee, trustee or agent for another Person and has attached hereto an affidavit from such Person in
substantially the same form as this affidavit.  The Transferee has no knowledge that any such affidavit is false.




            3.         The Transferee has been advised and understands that (i) a tax will be
imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or middleman) of a Person that is not a Permitted
Transferee, on the agent; and (iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time
of Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false.




            4.         The Transferee has been advised and understands that a tax will be imposed
on a “pass-through entity” holding the Certificate if at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest in such entity.  The Transferee understands that such
tax will not be imposed for any period with respect to which the record holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an affidavit that such record holder is a Permitted Transferee and the pass-through entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is
false.  (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 and, except as may be provided in Treasury
Regulations, persons holding interests in pass-through entities as a nominee for another Person.)




            5.         The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(d) of the
Agreement and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the Transfer and mandatory sales.  The
Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of Section 5.02(d) of the Agreement and the restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate.  The Transferee understands and agrees that any breach of any of the representations
included herein shall render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.




            6.         The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any Person to
whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in the Certificate, and in connection with any Transfer by a Person for whom the Transferee is acting as nominee, trustee or agent, and the Transferee will not Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause
any Ownership Interest to be Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted Transferee.  In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the form set
forth as Exhibit L to the Agreement (a “Transferor Certificate”) to the effect that such Transferee has no actual knowledge that the Person to which the Transfer is to be made is not a Permitted Transferee.




            7.         The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the assessment or
collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to the Certificate.




            8.         The Transferee's taxpayer identification number is
_____________.




            9.         The Transferee is a U.S. Person as defined in Code
Section 7701(a)(30).




            10.       The Transferee is aware that the Certificate may be “noneconomic residual
interests” within the meaning of Treasury regulations promulgated pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual interest, if a significant purpose
of the transfer was to impede the assessment or collection of tax.  The Transferee understands that, as the holder of a noneconomic residual interest, the Transferee may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the Certificates.  The
Transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding the Certificate as they become due.




            11.       The Transferee is not an employee benefit plan that is subject to ERISA or a plan that
is subject to Section 4975 of the Code, nor is it acting on behalf of such a plan.










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