    WITNESSETH:

     

    In
      consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the parties hereto
      agree as follows:

     

    PRELIMINARY
      STATEMENT

    

      The
        Securities Administrator on behalf of the Trust shall elect that three
        segregated asset pools within the Trust Fund be treated for federal income
        tax
        purposes as comprising four REMICs (each, a “Trust
        REMIC”
or,
        in
        the alternative, the “Lower-Tier REMIC,” the “Middle-Tier REMIC,” the
“Upper-Tier REMIC” and the “Class XP REMIC”). The Class XP Interest and
        each Class of LIBOR Certificates (exclusive of the right to receive Basis
        Risk
        Carry Forward Amounts), represents ownership of a regular interest in the
        Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class R
        Certificates represent ownership of the sole class of residual interest in
        the
        Middle-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC, the Class RC Certificates represent
        ownership of the sole class of residual interest in the Lower-Tier REMIC
        and the
        Class RX Certificates represent ownership of the sole class of residual interest
        in the Class XP REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Startup Day
        for
        each REMIC described herein is the Closing Date. The latest possible maturity
        date for each Certificate is the latest date referenced in Section 2.04.
        The
        Class XP REMIC shall hold as its assets the Class XP Interest, as set out
        below.
        The Upper-Tier REMIC shall hold as assets the several classes of uncertificated
        Middle-Tier Regular Interests, as set out below. The Middle-Tier REMIC shall
        hold as assets the several classes of uncertificated Lower-Tier Regular
        Interests, as set out below. The Lower-Tier REMIC shall hold as assets the
        assets described in the definition of “Trust Fund” herein (other than the Excess
        Reserve Fund Account, the Supplemental Interest Trust and the Final Maturity
        Reserve Account). Each Middle-Tier Regular Interest is herby designated as
        a
        regular interest in the Middle-Tier REMIC. Each Lower-Tier Regular Interest
        is
        hereby designated as a regular interest in the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Class
        XP
        Certificates represent beneficial ownership of a regular interest in the
        Class
        XP REMIC and the Excess Reserve Fund Account. 

    

     

    The
      Lower-Tier REMIC

     

    The
      Lower-Tier REMIC Interests shall have the Initial Principal Balances and
      Pass-Through Rates as set forth in the following table:

              The
                interest rate with respect to any Distribution Date (and the related
                Interest Accrual Period) for the Class LT1-A Interest is a per annum
                rate
                equal to the weighted average of the Adjusted Net Mortgage Interest
                Rate
                of the Mortgage Loans, provided that, for each Distribution Date
                on or
                after the Distribution Date in May 2017 through and including the
                Distribution Date in May 2037, the Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate of
                each
                Mortgage Loans with original terms to maturity in excess of 30 years
                interest shall be reduced by a per annum rate of 1% (the “REMIC Net WAC
                Rate”).

            


    

     

    
      	
              (2)

            	
              The
                interest rate with respect to any Distribution Date (and the related
                Interest Accrual Period) for this interest is a per annum rate equal
                to
                the lesser of (i) 10.26% and (ii) the product of (a) the REMIC Net
                WAC
                Rate and (b) 2.

            


    

     

    
      	
              (3)

            	
              For
                any Distribution Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) the
                interest rate for each of these Lower Tier Interests shall be the
                excess,
                if any, of (i) the product of (a) the REMIC Net WAC Rate and (b)
                2, over
                (ii) 10.26%.

            


    

     

    
      	
              (4)

            	
              This
                interest shall be an interest-only interest. For each Distribution
                Date on
                or after the Distribution Date in May 2017 through and including
                the
                Distribution Date in May 2037, this interest shall be entitled to
                receive
                interest at a rate of 1% that accrues on the Mortgage Loans with
                original
                terms to maturity in excess of 30
                years.

                This
                  interest shall also be entitled to all Prepayment Premiums received
                  in
                  respect of the Mortgage Loans.

              


      

       

      
        	
                (6)

              	
                This
                  interest shall have an initial principal amount equal to the excess
                  of the
                  stated Principal Balance of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the
                  Cut-off
                  Date over the sum of $100 and the aggregate initial Principal Balance
                  of
                  each other Lower-Tier Regular
                  Interest.

    On
      each
      Distribution Date, interest shall be allocated with respect to the interests
      in
      the Lower-Tier REMIC based on the above-described interest rates.

     

    On
      each
      Distribution Date, all Realized Losses and all payments of principal in respect
      of the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated in the following order of
      priority:

     

    
      	 	
              (a)

            	
              First,
                to the Class LT1-A interest until the outstanding principal balance
                of
                such interest is reduced to zero, and


            


    

     

    
      	 	
              (b)

            	
              Second,
                sequentially, to the other Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests in
                ascending

                  Date (and the related Interest Accrual Period) for this interest
                  is a per

                This
                  interest shall be an interest-only interest. This interest shall
                  be
                  entitled to receive all interest that accrues on the LT1-FMT
                  interest.

              This
                interest shall have an initial principal amount equal to the excess
                of the
                Stated Principal Balance of all the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off
                Date
                over the sum of $100 and the aggregate initial principal balance
                of each
                other Middle-Tier Regular Interest.

            


    

     

     

    On
      each
      Distribution Date, the Available Funds (not reduced by the Final Maturity
      Reserve Amount) for each Loan Group shall be distributed as interest with
      respect to the Middle Tier Interests based on the interest rates described
      above. 

    

      On
        each
        Distribution Date, the remaining Available Funds for each Loan Group shall
        be
        distributed as principal on Middle Tier Regular Interests as follows: 
         

      

       

      
        	 	
                (i)

              	
                to
                  each Middle-Tier Regular Interest with a Corresponding Upper-Tier
                  REMIC
                  Class, until the principal balance of each such Middle-Tier Interest
                  equals one-half of the principal balance of the related Upper-Tier
                  REMIC
                  Class as of such Distribution Date;


              


      

        


    

    
      	 	
              (ii)

            	
              to
                the Class MT-Accrual Interest until its principal balance is reduced
                to
                zero. 

            


    

    
    

    
      On
        each
        Distribution Date, Realized Losses attributable to principal with respect
        to any
        Loan Group shall each be allocated among the Middle Tier Regular Interests
        in
        the same manner that principal is distributed among such Middle Tier Regular
        Interests.

       

      Notwithstanding
        the above, principal payments allocated to the Class XP Interest that result
        in
        the reduction in the Overcollateralized Amount shall be allocated to the
        Class
        MT-Accrual Interest (until paid in full). Realized Losses shall be applied
        so
        that after all distributions have been made on each Distribution Date the
        principal amount of each of the Middle-Tier REMIC Regular Interest having
        a
        corresponding Upper-Tier REMIC Class is equal to 50% of the Class Principal
        Balance of its Corresponding Class.

    On

      Loans
      will be distributed to the Class MT-Accrual Interest. 

     

    In
      addition to issuing the Middle-Tier Regular Interests, the Middle-Tier REMIC
      shall issue the Class R-2 Interest which shall be the sole class of residual
      interests in the Middle-Tier REMIC. The Class R Certificates will represent
      ownership of the Class R-2 Interest. The Class R-2 Interest shall have no
      interest rate or principal amount.

                  excess, if any, of the Maximum REMIC Rate over the product of (i)
                  2 and
                  (ii) the weighted average interest rate of the Middle-Tier Regular
                  Interests (other than any interest-only regular interest), where
                  the
                  interest rates on the Class MT-Accrual Interest is subject to a
                  cap equal
                  to zero and each remaining Middle-Tier Regular Interest is subject
                  to a
                  cap equal to the Pass-Through Rate on its Corresponding Class,
                  determined
                  by substituting the REMIC Maximum Rate for the Net WAC Cap Rate.
                  With
                  respect to any Distribution Date, interest that so accrues on the
                  notional
                  principal balance of the Class XP Interest shall be deferred in
                  an amount
                  equal to any increase in the Overcollateralized Amount on such
                  Distribution Date. Such deferred interest shall not itself bear
                  interest.
                  The Class XP Certificates will represent beneficial ownership of
                  a regular
                  interest issued by the Class XP REMIC and amounts in the Excess
                  Reserve

                  and the
                  Supplemental Interest Trust in respect of Basis Risk Carry Forward
                  Amounts. For federal income tax purposes, the Securities Administrator
                  will treat the Class XP Certificateholders’ obligation to make payments
                  from the Excess Reserve Fund Account and the Supplemental Interest
                  Trust
                  as payments made pursuant to a notional principal contract between
                  the

              For
                purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the Class of Certificates corresponding
                to an interest in the Upper-Tier REMIC shall represent beneficial
                ownership of such interest in the Upper-Tier REMIC. Any amount distributed
                on a Corresponding Class of Certificates on any Distribution Date
                in
                excess of the amount distributable on each interest in the Upper-Tier
                REMIC corresponding to such Class of Certificates shall be treated
                as
                having been paid from the Final Maturity Reserve Fund, the Excess
                Reserve

                on such
                Distribution Date shall be treated as having been paid to the Supplemental
                Interest Trust, all pursuant to and as further provided in Section
                8.14
                hereof.

            


    

     

     

    In
      addition to issuing the Upper-Tier Regular Interests, the Upper-Tier REMIC
      shall
      issue the Class R-3 Interest, which shall be the sole class of residual
      interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class R Certificates shall represent
      ownership of the Class R-3 Interest. 

     

    Class

    The

              The
                Class XP Certificates are entitled to 100% of the interest and principal
                on the Class XP Interest and 100% of the Prepayment Premiums received
                on
                the Class XP Interest on each Distribution
                Date.

            


    

     

    In
      addition to issuing the Class XP Certificates, the Class XP REMIC shall issue
      the Class RX-XP Interest which shall be the sole class of residual interests
      in
      the Class XP REMIC. The Class RX Certificates shall be issued as a single
      Certificate in definitive form in a principal amount of $100 and shall have
      no
      interest rate. The Class RX Certificates shall evidence ownership of the Class
      RX-XP Interest.

     

    The
      foregoing REMIC structure is intended to cause all of the cash from the Mortgage
      Loans to flow through to the Upper-Tier REMIC as cash flow on a REMIC regular
      interest, without creating any actual or potential shortfall (other than for
      credit losses) to any Trust REMIC regular interest. It is not intended that
      the
      Class R, Class RC or Class RX Certificates be entitled to any cash flow pursuant
      to this Agreement except as provided in Section 4.01(a)(ii)(A)(a)
      hereunder.

    For
      any
      purpose for which the Pass-Through Rates are calculated, the interest rate
      on
      the Mortgage Loans shall be appropriately adjusted to account for the difference
      between the monthly day count convention of the Mortgage Loans and the monthly
      day count convention of the regular interests issued by each of the REMICs.
      For
      purposes of calculating the Pass-Through Rates for each of the interests issued
      by the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Middle-Tier REMIC such rates shall be adjusted
      to equal a monthly day count convention based on a 30 day month for each Due
      Period and a 360-day year so that the Mortgage Loans and all regular interests
      will be using the same monthly day count convention.

     

    The
      minimum denomination for each Class of the Senior Certificates (other than
      the
      Residual Certificates) shall be $25,000 initial Class Principal Balance, with
      integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof except that one Certificate in each
      Class may be issued in a different amount. The minimum denomination for each
      Class of Subordinate Certificates shall be $100,000 initial Class Principal
      Balance, with integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof except that one
      Certificate in each Class may be issued in a different amount. The minimum
      denomination for (a) each Class of the Residual Certificates shall be $100
      and
      each shall be a 100% Percentage Interest in each such respective Class and
      (b)
      the Class XP Certificates shall be a 1% Percentage Interest in such
      Class.

      (a) The

      necessary to show a complete chain of title from the original mortgagee to
      the
      seller and evidencing recording; provided
      that
      except in the case of the Goldman Conduit Mortgage Loans, the assignment may
      be

      evidence of recording shall be acceptable;

     

    (vi) originals
      of all assumption, modification, consolidation or extension agreements or

    (vii) if
      applicable to the files held by the related Custodian, an original or copy
      of a
      title insurance policy or evidence of title;

     

    (viii) to
      the
      extent applicable, an original power of attorney;

     

    (ix) for
      each
      Mortgage Loan (if applicable to the files held by the related Custodian) with
      respect to which the Mortgagor’s name as it appears on the note does not match
      the borrower’s name on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, one of the following: the
      original of the assumption agreement, or a certified copy thereof, in either
      case with evidence of recording thereon if required to maintain the lien of
      the
      mortgage or if otherwise required, or, if recordation is not so required, an
      original or copy of such assumption agreement;

     

    (x) if
      applicable to the files held by the related Custodian, a security agreement,
      chattel mortgage or equivalent document executed in connection with the
      Mortgage, if any; and

     

    (xi) with
      respect to each Mortgage Loan, the complete Custodial File including all items
      as set forth in the applicable Servicing Agreement to the extent in the
      possession of the Depositor or the Depositor’s Agents.

     

    The
      Depositor shall deliver or cause each Seller to deliver to the applicable
      Custodian the applicable recorded document promptly upon receipt from the
      respective recording office but in no event later than 120 days from the Closing
      Date.

     

    From
      time
      to time, pursuant to the applicable Sale Agreement, the Seller may forward
      to
      the related Custodian additional original documents, additional documents
      evidencing an assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of a Mortgage
      Loan, in accordance with the terms of the applicable Sale Agreement. All such
      mortgage documents held by the related Custodian as to each Mortgage Loan shall
      constitute the “Custodial
      File.”

     

    On
      or
      prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deliver to the related Custodian
      Assignments of Mortgages (except in the case of MERS Loans), in blank, for
      each
      applicable Mortgage Loan. On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall provide a
      written request to each Seller to submit the Assignments of Mortgage for
      recordation, at the Seller’s expense, pursuant to the applicable Sale Agreement.
      The related Custodian shall deliver the Assignment of Mortgages to be submitted
      for recordation to the applicable Seller upon receipt of a written request
      for
      release in standard and customary form as set forth in Exhibit
      L.

     

    On
      or
      prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deliver to each Custodian and

      Master Servicer a copy of the Mortgage Loan Schedule in electronic, machine
      readable medium in a form mutually acceptable to the Depositor, each such
      Custodian, the Master Servicer and the Trustee.

     

    In
      the
      event that such original or copy of any document submitted for recordation
      to
      the appropriate public recording office is not so delivered to the applicable
      Custodian within the time period and in the manner specified in the applicable
      Sale Agreement, the Trustee shall take or cause to be taken such remedial
      actions under the Sale Agreement against the applicable Seller as may be
      permitted to be taken thereunder, including without limitation, if applicable,
      the repurchase by the applicable Seller of such Mortgage Loan. The foregoing
      repurchase remedy shall not apply in the event that the Seller cannot deliver
      such original or copy of any document submitted for recordation to the
      appropriate public recording office within the specified period due to a delay
      caused by the recording office in the applicable jurisdiction; provided
      that the
      applicable Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such recording
      office or, if such recording receipt is not available, an officer’s certificate
      of an officer of the applicable Seller, confirming that such document has been
      accepted for recording.

    Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained in this Section 2.01, in those instances
      where the public recording office retains or loses the original Mortgage or
      assignment after it has been recorded, the obligations of the Seller shall
      be
      deemed to have been satisfied upon delivery by the Seller to the related
      Custodian prior to the Closing Date of a copy of such Mortgage or assignment,
      as
      the case may be, certified (such certification to be an original thereof) by
      the
      public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the recorded original
      thereof.

     

    (c) The
      Depositor does hereby establish, pursuant to the further provisions of this
      Agreement and the laws of the State of New York, an express trust (the
“Trust”)
      to be
      known, for convenience, as “GSR Mortgage Loan Trust 2007-OA1” and Deutsche Bank
      is hereby appointed as Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this
      Agreement.

     

    (d) It
      is the
      policy and intention of the Trust that none of the Mortgage Loans included
      in
      the Trust is (a) covered by the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of
      1994, or (b) considered a “high cost home,” “threshold,” “predatory” or
“covered” loan (excluding “covered home loans” as defined under clause (1) of
      the definition of “covered home loans” in the New Jersey Home Ownership Security
      Act of 2002) under applicable state, federal or local laws.

     

    (e) The
      Depositor hereby directs the Securities Administrator to execute and deliver
      the
      Interest Rate Swap Agreement and to make the representations required therein
      and authorizes the Securities Administrator to perform its obligations
      thereunder on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust in accordance with
      the
      terms of such agreement. The Securities Administrator in its individual capacity
      shall have no responsibility for any of the undertakings, agreements or
      representations with respect to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, including,
      without limitation, the making of any payments thereunder, all of which shall
      be
      the obligations of the Supplemental Interest Trust. The Securities Administrator
      shall not be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge
      of
      any Swap Disclosure Event (as defined in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement)
      unless a Responsible Officer of the Securities Administrator obtains actual
      knowledge of the occurrence of a Swap Disclosure Event or shall have received
      written notice thereof from the Depositor. In the absence of such actual
      knowledge or notice, the Securities Administrator may conclusively assume that
      no Swap Disclosure Event has occurred.

    Prior
      to
      and as a condition to the Closing, each Custodian shall deliver via facsimile
      (with original to follow the next Business Day) to the Depositor an Initial
      Certification prior to the Closing Date, or as the Depositor agrees to, on
      the
      Closing Date, certifying receipt of a Mortgage Note and Assignment of Mortgage,
      subject to any exceptions listed on the exception report attached thereto,
      for
      each Mortgage Loan. The Custodians shall not be responsible for verifying the
      validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document in any Custodial
      File.

     

    On
      the
      Closing Date, each Custodian shall ascertain that all documents required to
      be
      delivered to it on or prior to the Closing Date are in its possession, subject
      to any exceptions listed on the exception report attached thereto, and shall
      deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee an Initial Certification, in the form
      annexed hereto as Exhibit
      E,
      and
      shall deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee a Document Certification and
      Exception Report, in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit
      F,
      within
      ninety (90) days after the Closing Date to the effect that, as to each
      applicable Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any
      Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in
      such
      certification as an exception and not covered by such certification): (i) all
      documents required to be delivered to it are in its possession; (ii) such
      documents have been reviewed by it and appear regular on their face and relate
      to such Mortgage Loan; (iii) based on its examination and only as to the
      foregoing documents, as to Deutsche Bank, the information set forth in items
      2,
      8, 33, and 34 of the Mortgage Loan Schedule respecting such Mortgage Loan is
      correct; and (iv) each Mortgage Note has been endorsed as provided in Section
      2.01 of this Agreement. The Custodians shall not be responsible for verifying
      the validity, sufficiency or genuineness of any document in any Custodial
      File.

     

    Each
      Custodian shall retain possession and custody of each applicable Custodial
      File
      in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth
      herein.

     

    Each
      Custodian shall notify the Trustee of any Mortgage Loans that do not conform
      to
      the requirements of Sections 2.01 and 2.02 hereof by delivery of the Document
      Certification and Exception Report. In its capacity as “Assignee” under the Step
      2 Assignment Agreements, the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the Sellers
      to cure or repurchase Mortgage Loans that do not conform to such requirements
      as
      determined in the Custodian’s review as required herein, or based upon
      notification from the Master Servicer (who shall be entitled to rely on
      information regarding any such defaults by a Seller that has been provided
      by
      the applicable Servicer for purposes of providing such notification to the
      Trustee), by notifying the applicable Seller to correct or cure such default.

    (b) In
      its
      capacity as “Assignee” under the Step 2 Assignment Agreements, the Trustee shall
      also enforce the obligation of the Sellers under the Sale Agreements, and to
      the
      extent applicable, of any Servicer under the Servicing Agreements, and of the
      Purchaser under the Step 1 Assignment Agreements to cure or repurchase Mortgage
      Loans for which there is a defect or a breach of a representation or warranty
      thereunder of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge,
      by notifying the applicable party to correct or cure such default; provided
      that
      with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty contained in a Sale
      Agreement regarding a First Payment Default Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall
      only enforce the obligation of a Relevant Party to repurchase such First Payment
      Default Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms of the applicable Sale Agreement
      if
      the Trustee is directed to take such action by the Majority Class XP
      Certificateholder (the Majority Class XP Certificateholder, by acceptance of
      the
      Class XP Certificates, shall be deemed to consent to such obligation so to
      direct the Trustee). If any Servicer, any Seller or the Purchaser, as the case
      may be, fails or is unable to correct or cure the defect or breach within the
      period set forth in the applicable agreement, the Trustee shall notify the
      Depositor of such failure to correct or cure. Unless otherwise directed by
      the
      Depositor within five (5) Business Days after notifying the Depositor of such
      failure by the applicable party to correct or cure, the Trustee shall notify
      such party to repurchase the Mortgage Loan. If, within ten (10) Business Days
      of
      receipt of such notice by such party, such party fails to repurchase such
      Mortgage Loan, the Trustee shall notify the Depositor of such failure. The
      Trustee shall pursue all legal remedies available to the Trustee against the
      Servicers, the Sellers and the Purchaser, as applicable, under this Agreement,
      if the Trustee has received written notice from the Depositor directing the
      Trustee to pursue such remedies.

     

    Section
      2.03 Execution
      and Delivery of Certificates.
      The
      Trustee acknowledges the transfer and assignment to it of the Trust Fund and,
      concurrently with such transfer and assignment, the Securities Administrator
      has
      executed and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, the Certificates
      in authorized denominations evidencing directly or indirectly the entire
      ownership of the Trust Fund. The Trustee agrees to hold the Trust Fund and
      exercise the rights referred to above for the benefit of all present and future
      Holders of the Certificates.

    

      Section
        2.04 REMIC
        Matters.
        The
        Preliminary Statement sets forth the designations for federal income tax
        purposes of all interests created hereby. The “Startup
        Day”
for
        purposes of the REMIC Provisions shall be the Closing Date. The “latest possible
        maturity date” is the 36th
        Distribution Date following the latest Mortgage Loan maturity date of any
        Mortgage Loan included in the Trust Fund on the Closing Date. Amounts paid
        to
        the Class XP Certificates (prior to any reduction for any Basis Risk Payment,
        Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment) shall be deemed paid from the
        Upper-Tier REMIC to the Class XP REMIC in respect of the Class XP Interest
        and
        from the Class XP REMIC to the Holders of the Class XP Certificates prior
        to
        distribution of Basis Risk Payments to the Offered Certificates (other than
        the
        Residual Certificates) or payment to the Swap Provider.

    Section
      2.05 Representations
      and Warranties of the Depositor.
      The
      Depositor hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Trustee that as
      of
      the date of this Agreement or as of such date specifically provided
      herein:

     

    (a) The
      Depositor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
      under the laws of the State of Delaware;

     

    (b) The
      Depositor has the corporate power and authority to convey the Mortgage Loans
      and
      to execute, deliver and perform, and to enter into and consummate the
      transactions contemplated by, this Agreement;

     

    (c) This
      Agreement has been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the
      Depositor, all requisite corporate action having been taken, and, assuming
      the
      due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other parties hereto,
      constitutes or will constitute the legal, valid and binding agreement of the
      Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms,
      except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
      reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws relating to or affecting the
      rights of creditors generally, and by general equity principles (regardless
      of
      whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
      law);

     

    (d) No
      consent, approval, authorization or order of or registration or filing with,
      or
      notice to, any governmental authority or court is required for the execution,
      delivery and performance of or compliance by the Depositor with this Agreement
      or the consummation by the Depositor of any of the transactions contemplated
      hereby, except as have been made on or prior to the Closing Date;

     

    (e) None
      of
      the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the consummation of the
      transactions contemplated hereby or thereby, or the fulfillment of or compliance
      with the terms and conditions of this Agreement, (i) conflicts or will conflict
      with or results or will result in a breach of, or constitutes or will constitute
      a default or results or will result in an acceleration under (A) the charter
      or
      bylaws of the Depositor, or (B) any term, condition or provision of any material
      indenture, deed of trust, contract or other agreement or instrument to which
      the
      Depositor or any of its subsidiaries is a party or by which it or any of its
      subsidiaries is bound; (ii) results or will result in a violation of any law,
      rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree applicable to the Depositor of
      any
      court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor or its
      subsidiaries; or (iii) results in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge
      or encumbrance which would have a material adverse effect upon the Mortgage
      Loans or any documents or instruments evidencing or securing the Mortgage
      Loans;

     

    (f) There
      are
      no actions, suits or proceedings before or against or investigations of, the
      Depositor pending, or to the knowledge of the Depositor, threatened, before
      any
      court, administrative agency or other tribunal, and no notice of any such
      action, which, in the Depositor’s reasonable judgment, might materially and
      adversely affect the performance by the Depositor of its obligations under
      this
      Agreement, or the validity or enforceability of this Agreement;

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        57

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (g) The
      Depositor is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any court
      or
      any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state, municipal or governmental
      agency that may materially and adversely affect its performance hereunder;
      and

     

    (h) Immediately
      prior to the transfer and assignment by the Depositor to the Trustee on the
      Closing Date, the Depositor had good title to, and was the sole owner of each
      Mortgage Loan, free of any interest of any other Person, and the Depositor
      has
      transferred all right, title and interest in each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee.
      The transfer of each Mortgage Note and each Mortgage as and in the manner
      contemplated by this Agreement is sufficient either (i) fully to transfer to
      the
      Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, all right, title, and
      interest of the Depositor thereto as note holder and mortgagee or (ii) to grant
      to the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the security interest
      referred to in Section 12.04 hereof.

     

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

     

    Section
      2.06 Representations
      and Warranties of Deutsche Bank.
      Each
      Custodian hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor, the Master Servicer
      and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date:

     

    (a) The
      Custodian is duly organized and is validly existing and in good standing under
      the laws of its jurisdiction of incorporation and is duly authorized and
      qualified to transact any and all business contemplated by this Agreement to
      be
      conducted by the Custodian or is otherwise not required under applicable law
      to
      effect such qualification and, in any event, is in compliance with the doing
      business laws of any such state, to the extent necessary to perform any of
      its
      obligations under this Agreement in accordance with the terms
      thereof.

     

    (b) The
      Custodian has the full power and authority to execute, deliver and perform,
      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 Custodian the
      execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement; and this Agreement,
      assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the other
      parties thereto, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
      Custodian, enforceable against the Custodian in accordance with its terms,
      except that (i) the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
      insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to
      creditors’ rights generally and (ii) the remedy of specific performance and
      injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to equitable
      defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor
      may be brought.

     

    (c) The
      execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Custodian, the consummation
      of
      any other of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, and the
      fulfillment of or compliance with the terms thereof are in the ordinary course
      of business of the Custodian and will not result in a material breach of any
      term or provision of the articles of incorporation or by laws of the
      Custodian.

    ARTICLE
      III


     

    TRUST
      ACCOUNTS

     

    Section
      3.01 Excess
      Reserve Fund Account; Certificate Account.
      (a) The
      Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain the Excess Reserve Fund
      Account to receive any Basis Risk Payment and to secure their limited recourse
      obligation to pay to the Holders of the Offered Certificates (other than the
      Residual Certificates) any Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts (prior to using
      any
      Net Swap Receipt Amounts). On each Distribution Date, the Securities
      Administrator shall deposit the amount of any Basis Risk Payment received by
      it
      for such date into the Excess Reserve Fund Account. For the avoidance of doubt,
      any Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts shall be paid to the LIBOR Certificates
      first from the Excess Reserve Fund Account and then from the Supplemental
      Interest Trust.

     

    On
      each
      Distribution Date on which there exists a Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount on
      any
      Class or Classes of Offered Certificates (other than the Residual Certificates),
      the Securities Administrator shall (1) withdraw from the Certificate Account,
      to
      the extent of funds available therefor in the Certificate Account, and deposit
      in the Excess Reserve Fund Account, as set forth in Section 4.01(a)(iii)(f),
      the
      lesser of (x) the Class XP Distributable Amount (without regard to the reduction
      in clause (iii) of the definition thereof with respect to Basis Risk Payments)
      (to the extent remaining after the distributions specified in Sections
      4.01(a)(iii)(a)-(f)) and (y) the aggregate Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount
      of
      the Offered Certificates (other than the Residual Certificates) for such
      Distribution Date and (2) withdraw from the Excess Reserve Fund Account and
      the
      Certificate Account amounts necessary (including Net Swap Payment Amounts or
      Swap Termination Payments (other than amounts received pursuant to an ISDA
      Credit Support Annex negotiated between the Trust and the Swap Provider)) to
      pay
      to such Class or Classes of Certificates the related Basis Risk Carry Forward
      Amount. Such payments shall be allocated to those Classes based upon the amount
      of Basis Risk Carry Forward Amount owed to each such Class and shall be paid
      in
      the priority set forth in Section 4.01(a)(iii)(g).

    

      The
        Securities Administrator shall account for the Excess Reserve Fund Account
        as
        a disregarded entity as long as there is a single holder of the Class XP
        Certificates and, in no event, as an asset of any Trust REMIC created pursuant
        to this Agreement. The beneficial owners of the Excess Reserve Fund Account
        are
        the Class XP Certificateholders. For all federal income tax purposes, amounts
        transferred to the Excess Reserve Fund Account in respect of Net Monthly
        Excess
        Cash Flow shall be treated as distributions by the Securities Administrator
        from
        the Upper-Tier REMIC to the Class XP Interest and from the Class XP REMIC
        to the
        Class XP Certificates and then contributed by the Class XP Certificateholders
        to
        the Excess Reserve Fund Account.

       

    

    Any
      Basis
      Risk Carry Forward Amounts distributed by the Securities Administrator to the
      Holders of the Offered Certificates (other than the Residual Certificates)
      shall
      be accounted for by the Securities Administrator, for federal income tax
      purposes, as amounts paid first to the Holders of the Class XP Certificates
      and
      then to the respective Class or Classes of Offered Certificates (other than
      the
      Residual Certificates) in accordance with the priority of payments in this
      Section 3.01. In addition, the Securities Administrator shall account for such
      Offered Certificateholders’ rights to receive payments of Basis Risk Carry
      Forward Amounts as rights in a limited recourse interest rate cap contract
      written by the Class XP Certificateholders in favor of the Holders of each
      such
      Class.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        59

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    Notwithstanding
      any provision contained in this Agreement, the Securities Administrator shall
      not be required to make any distributions from the Excess Reserve Fund Account
      except as expressly set forth in this Section 3.01(a).

     

    (b) The
      Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain the Certificate Account
      on
      behalf of the Certificateholders. So long as Wells Fargo Bank shall be both
      the
      Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer Account
      shall be the same account as, or a sub-account of, the Certificate Account.
      The
      amount remitted by the Servicer to the Master Servicer on each Remittance Date
      shall be credited to the Certificate Account within two (2) Business Days once
      the amounts are identified as a remittance in connection with the Trust and
      reconciled to the reports provided by the Servicer. The Securities Administrator
      shall establish and maintain the Certificate Account on behalf of the
      Certificateholders. The Master Servicer shall, promptly upon receipt on the
      Business Day received, deposit in the Certificate Account and retain therein
      the
      following:

     

    (i) the
      aggregate amount remitted by the Servicers to the Master Servicer pursuant
      to
      the Servicing Agreements; 

     

    (ii) any
      Net
      Swap Receipt Amounts or Swap Termination Payments (other than amounts received
      pursuant to an ISDA Credit Support Annex negotiated between the Supplemental
      Interest Trust and the Swap Provider) remitted by the Swap Provider;


     

    (iii) any
      First
      Payment Default Purchase Price received in respect of the repurchase of a First
      Payment Default Mortgage Loan; and

     

    (iv) any
      other
      amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be deposited in the
      Certificate Account.

     

    In
      the
      event that any Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be remitted
      pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreement, and such Servicer directs the
      Master Servicer in writing to withdraw such amount from the Certificate Account,
      the Master Servicer shall return such funds to the applicable Servicer. All
      funds deposited in the Certificate Account shall be held by the Securities
      Administrator in trust for the Certificateholders until disbursed in accordance
      with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with Section 4.01.

     

    (c) From
      time
      to time, the Securities Administrator may also establish any other accounts
      for
      the purposes of carrying out its duties hereunder (including, without
      limitation, any account necessary under the Interest Rate Swap
      Agreement).

     

    Section
      3.02 Investment
      of Funds in the Certificate Account.
      (a)
      Other than during the Master Servicer Float Period, the Depositor shall direct
      the investment of funds held in the Certificate Account in one or more Permitted
      Investments. Absent such direction, the Securities Administrator shall invest
      such funds during such period in the Wells Fargo Bank Advantage Prime Investment
      Money Market Fund so long as such fund is a Permitted Investment. The Securities
      Administrator may (but shall not be obligated to) invest funds in the
      Certificate Account during the Master Servicer Float Period (for purposes of
      this Section 3.02, such Account is referred to as an “Investment
      Account”),
      in
      one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and
      maturing, unless payable on demand, or maturing on such Distribution Date,
      in
      the case of an investment that is an obligation of Wells Fargo Bank, 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. 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
      Securities Administrator. The Securities Administrator shall be entitled to
      sole
      possession over each such investment, and any certificate or other instrument
      evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Securities
      Administrator or its agent, together with any document of transfer necessary
      to
      transfer title to such investment to the Securities Administrator. In the event
      amounts on deposit in an Investment Account are at any time invested in a

      Interest is allocated among those classes of certificates, with the allocation
      to the Senior Certificates being allocated pro rata based on their respective
      entitlements to those amounts;

      any
      exercise of the purchase option set forth in Section 11.01, the Securities

      obtained by calling the Securities Administrator’s investor relations desk at
      (866) 856-4526. The Securities Administrator will also make a paper copy of
      the

    (c) Upon
      request, within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar

      the Securities Administrator shall cause to be furnished to each Person who
      at
      any time during the calendar year was a Certificateholder, a statement
      containing the information set forth in clauses (a)(i), (a)(ii), (a)(iii) and
      (a)(vii) of this Section 4.02 aggregated for such calendar year or applicable
      portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder. Such
      obligation of the Securities Administrator shall be deemed to have been
      satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be
      provided by the Securities Administrator pursuant to any requirements of the
      Code as from time to time in effect.

     

    The
      Securities Administrator shall be entitled to rely on information provided

      third parties for purposes of preparing the foregoing report, but shall not
      be
      responsible for the accuracy of such information.

     

    Section
      4.03 Allocation
      of Applied Realized Loss Amounts.
      Any
      Applied Realized Loss Amounts shall be allocated to the most junior Class of
      Subordinate Certificates then outstanding in reduction of the Class Principal
      Balance thereof. After the aggregate Class Principal Balance of the Subordinate
      Certificates has been reduced to zero, any Applied Loss Amounts with respect
      to
      the Group 1 Mortgage Loans and the Group 2 Mortgage Loans shall be allocated
      to
      the Class 1A-2 Certificates and the Class 2A-M Certificates, respectively,
      in
      each case in reduction of the respective Class Principal Balance thereof. In
      the
      event Applied Realized Loss Amounts are allocated to any Class of Certificates,
      their Class Principal Balance shall be reduced by the amount so allocated and
      no
      funds shall be distributed with respect to the written down amounts or with
      respect to interest or Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts on the written down
      amounts on that Distribution Date or any future Distribution Dates, even if
      funds are otherwise available therefor.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, the Class Principal Balance of each Class of Subordinate
      Certificates that has been previously reduced by Applied Realized Loss Amounts
      shall be increased, in the order of seniority, by the amount of the Subsequent
      Recoveries (but not in excess of the Applied Realized Loss Amount allocated
      to
      the applicable Class of Subordinate Certificates).

    Section
      4.04 Certain
      Matters Relating to the Determination of LIBOR.
      LIBOR
      shall be calculated by the Securities Administrator in accordance with the
      definition of “LIBOR.”
Until
      all of the LIBOR Certificates are paid in full, the Securities Administrator
      will at all times retain at least four Reference Banks for the purpose of
      determining LIBOR with respect to each LIBOR Determination Date. The Securities
      Administrator initially shall designate the Reference Banks (after consultation
      with the Depositor). Each “Reference
      Bank”
shall
      be a leading bank engaged in transactions in Eurodollar deposits in the
      international Eurocurrency market, shall not control, be controlled by, or
      be
      under common control with, the Securities Administrator and shall have an
      established place of business in London. If any such Reference Bank should
      be
      unwilling or unable to act as such or if the Securities Administrator should
      terminate its appointment as Reference Bank, the Securities Administrator shall
      promptly appoint or cause to be appointed another Reference Bank (after
      consultation with the Depositor). The Securities Administrator shall have no
      liability or responsibility to any Person for (i) the selection of any Reference
      Bank for purposes of determining LIBOR or (ii) any inability to retain at least
      four Reference Banks which is caused by circumstances beyond its reasonable
      control.

     

    The
      Pass-Through Rate for each Class of LIBOR Certificates for each Interest Accrual
      Period shall be determined by the Securities Administrator on each LIBOR
      Determination Date so long as the LIBOR Certificates are outstanding on the
      basis of LIBOR and the respective formulae appearing in footnotes corresponding
      to the LIBOR Certificates in the table relating to the Certificates in the
      Preliminary Statement. The Securities Administrator shall not have any liability
      or responsibility to any Person for its inability, following a good faith
      reasonable effort, to obtain quotations from the Reference Banks or to determine
      the arithmetic mean referred to in the definition of LIBOR, all as provided
      for
      in this Section 4.04 and the definition of LIBOR. The establishment of LIBOR
      and
      each Pass-Through Rate for the LIBOR Certificates by the Securities
      Administrator shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final, conclusive
      and
      binding upon each Holder of a Certificate and the Trustee.

      4.05 Supplemental
      Interest Trust.
      On the
      Closing Date, the Securities Administrator on behalf of the Trustee shall
      establish and maintain a separate non-interest bearing trust (the “Supplemental
      Interest Trust”).
      The
      Supplemental Interest Trust shall be an Eligible Account, and funds on deposit
      therein shall be held separate and apart from, and shall not be commingled
      with,
      any other moneys, including, without limitation, other moneys of the Securities
      Administrator held pursuant to this Agreement.

     

    On
      any
      Distribution Date, Swap Termination Payments, Net Swap Payment Amounts owed
      to
      the Swap Provider and Net Swap Receipt Amounts for that Distribution Date shall
      be deposited into the Supplemental Interest Trust. Funds in the Supplemental
      Interest Trust shall be distributed in the following order of
      priority:

     

    (i) to
      the
      Swap Provider, the sum of (x) all Net Swap Payment Amounts and (y) any Swap
      Termination Payment, other than a Defaulted Swap Termination Payment, if any,
      owed for that Distribution Date;

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        72

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (ii) to
      the
      Certificateholders, to pay Accrued Certificate Interest and, if applicable,
      any
      Unpaid Interest Amounts pursuant to Section 4.01(i), to the extent unpaid from
      other Available Funds;

     

    (iii) to
      the
      Certificateholders, to pay principal pursuant to Sections 4.01(ii)(A) and (B),
      but only to the extent necessary to maintain the Overcollateralized Amount
      at
      the Specified Overcollateralized Amount, after giving effect to payments and
      distributions from other Available Funds;

     

    (iv) to
      the
      Certificateholders, to pay Unpaid Interest Amounts and Basis Risk Carry Forward
      Amounts pursuant to Section 4.01(iii) (a) through (g), to the extent unpaid
      from
      other Available Funds (including funds on deposit in the Excess Reserve Fund
      Account);

     

    (v) to
      the
      Swap Provider, any Defaulted Swap Termination Payment owed to the Swap Provider
      for that Distribution Date; and

     

    (vi) to
      the
      holders of the Class XP Certificates, any remaining amounts.

     

    Upon
      termination of the Trust, any amounts remaining in the Supplemental Interest
      Trust shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities set forth in this Section
      4.05.

    

      The
        Securities Administrator shall account for the Supplemental Interest Trust
        as a
        disregarded entity as long as the Class XP Certificates are held by a single
        holder and, in no event, as an asset of any Trust REMIC created pursuant
        to this
        Agreement. The Supplemental Interest Trust shall be an “outside reserve fund”
for federal income tax purposes. The beneficial owners of the Supplemental
        Interest Trust are the Class XP Certificateholders.

       
Section
      4.06 Trust’s
      Obligations under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement; Replacement and Termination
      of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement.

     

    (a) Upon
      the
      Securities Administrator’s obtaining actual knowledge of the rating of the Swap
      Provider falling below the Approved Ratings Threshold (as defined in the
      Interest Rate Swap Agreement), the Securities Administrator, acting at the
      written direction of the Depositor, shall set up an account in accordance with
      Section 3.01(c) to hold cash or other eligible investments pledged under the
      ISDA Credit Support Annex. Any cash or other eligible investments pledged under
      the ISDA Credit Support Annex shall not be part of the Distribution Account,
      the
      Excess Reserve Fund Account or the Supplemental Interest Trust unless they
      are
      applied in accordance with the ISDA Credit Support Annex to make a payment
      due
      to the Supplemental Interest Trust pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap
      Agreement.

     

    (b) Upon
      the
      Securities Administrator’s obtaining actual knowledge of an Event of Default (as
      defined in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) or Termination Event (as defined
      in
      the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) for which the Supplemental Interest Trust
      has
      the right to designate an Early Termination Date (as defined in the Interest
      Rate Swap Agreement), the Securities Administrator shall act at the written
      direction of the Depositor as to whether it shall designate an Early Termination
      Date; provided,
      however,
      that
      the Securities Administrator, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust,
      shall provide written notice to each Rating Agency following the Event of
      Default or Termination Event. Upon the termination of the Interest Rate Swap
      Agreement under the circumstances contemplated by this Section 4.06(b), the
      trustee of the Supplemental Interest Trust shall use its reasonable best efforts
      at the direction of the Depositor, to enforce the rights of the Supplemental
      Interest Trust and the trustee thereunder as may be permitted by the terms
      of
      the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and consistent with the terms hereof, and
      shall
      apply the proceeds of any such efforts to enter into a replacement interest
      rate
      swap agreement with another swap provider. To the extent such replacement
      interest rate swap agreement can be entered into, any termination payments
      received by the Supplemental Interest Trust in respect of the terminated
      interest rate swap agreement shall be used, to the extent necessary, by the
      Supplemental Interest Trust for the purpose of entering into such replacement
      interest rate swap agreement.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        73

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (c) Notwithstanding
      any other provision in this Agreement, in the event that the Interest Rate
      Swap
      Agreement is terminated and the Supplemental Interest Trust enters into a
      replacement interest rate swap agreement and the Supplemental Interest Trust
      is
      entitled to receive a payment from a replacement swap provider, the Securities
      Administrator shall direct the replacement swap provider to make such payment
      (the “Replacement Swap Provider Payment”) to the Supplemental Interest Trust.
      The Supplemental Interest Trust shall pay to the Swap Provider that is being
      replaced the lesser of (x) the amount so received and (y) any Swap Termination
      Payment owed to the Swap Provider (to the extent not already paid by the
      Supplemental Interest Trust) immediately upon receipt of the Replacement Swap
      Provider Payment, regardless of whether the date of receipt thereof is a
      Distribution Date; provided
      that to
      the extent that the Replacement Swap Provider Payment is less than the Swap
      Termination Payment owed to the Swap Provider, any remaining amounts shall
      be
      paid to the Swap Provider on the subsequent Distribution Date (unless the
      Replacement Swap Provider Payment is paid to the Swap Provider on a Distribution
      Date, in which case such remaining amounts shall be paid on such Distribution
      Date) in accordance with the priority of payments described in Section 4.05
      of
      this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, the parties agree that the Swap
      Provider shall have first priority to any Replacement Swap Provider Payment
      over
      the payment by the Trust to Certificateholders, any Servicer, any Custodian,
      the
      Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or any other
      Person.

     

    Section
      4.07 Final
      Maturity Reserve Trust.
      On the
      Closing Date, the Securities Administrator on behalf of the Trustee shall
      establish and maintain a separate non-interest bearing trust (the “Final
      Maturity Reserve Trust”),
      the
      sole asset of which shall be the Final Maturity Reserve Account and the funds
      therein. The Final Maturity Reserve Account shall be an Eligible Account, and
      funds on deposit therein shall be held separate and apart from, and shall not
      be
      commingled with, any other moneys, including, without limitation, other moneys
      of the Securities Administrator held pursuant to this Agreement.

     

    If,
      on
      the Distribution Date occurring in May 2017, or on any Distribution Date
      thereafter through and including the Distribution Date in May 2037, any LIBOR
      Certificates are outstanding and any Mortgage Loans with original terms to
      maturity in excess of 30 years are outstanding, the Securities Administrator
      shall be required to deposit from interest collections on the Mortgage Loans
      into the Final Maturity Reserve Account, the Final Maturity Reserve Amount
      for
      such Distribution Date. Any investment earnings on amounts on deposit in the
      Final Maturity Reserve Account shall remain in such account until distributed
      as
      provided in this Section.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        74

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    On
      each
      Distribution Date, any amounts on deposit in the Final Maturity Reserve Account
      in excess of the lesser of (i) the aggregate Class Principal Balance of the
      LIBOR Certificates and (ii) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
      Mortgage Loans with original terms to maturity in excess of 30 years, shall
      be
      withdrawn from the Final Maturity Reserve Account and shall be included in
      the
      Available Distribution Amount for such Distribution Date.

     

    On
      the
      earlier of the Distribution Date occurring in May 2037 and the Distribution
      Date
      on which the final distribution of payments from the Mortgage Loans and the
      other assets in the Trust Fund is expected to be made, any remaining amounts
      on
      deposit in the Final Maturity Reserve Account shall be distributed first,
      to the
      Senior Certificates, on a pro
      rata
      basis,
      in reduction of the Class Principal Balance of each such class, in each case
      until the Class Principal Balance of each such class has been reduced to zero,
      second,
      to the
      Subordinate Certificates in ascending order of numerical designation, in
      reduction of the Class Principal Balance of each such class, in each case until
      the Class Principal Balance of each such class has been reduced to zero, and
      third,
      to the
      Class RC Certificates. The Final Maturity Reserve Account may, upon written
      direction of the Holder of the Class RC Certificates, be terminated if none
      of
      the Mortgage Loans with original terms to maturity in excess of 30 years remains
      outstanding.

    THE
      CERTIFICATES

     

    Section
      5.01 The
      Certificates.
      The
      Certificates shall be substantially in the forms attached hereto as exhibits.
      The Certificates shall be issuable in registered form, in the minimum
      denominations, integral multiples in excess thereof (except that one Certificate
      in each Class may be issued in a different amount) and aggregate denominations
      per Class set forth in the Preliminary Statement.

     

    The
      Depositor hereby directs the Securities Administrator to register the Class
      XP
      Certificates in the name of the Depositor or its designee. On a date as to
      which
      the Depositor notifies the Securities Administrator, the Depositor hereby
      directs the Securities Administrator to transfer the Class XP Certificates
      in
      the name of the NIM Trustee or such other name or names as the Depositor shall
      request, and to deliver the Class XP Certificates to the NIM Trustee, or to
      such
      other person or persons as the Depositor shall request.

     

    Subject
      to Section 11.02 respecting the final distribution on the Certificates, on
      each
      Distribution Date the Securities Administrator shall make distributions to
      each
      Certificateholder of record on the preceding Record Date either (x) by wire
      transfer in immediately available funds to the account of such Holder at a
      bank
      or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor as directed by that
      Certificateholder by written wire instructions provided to the Securities
      Administrator or (y), in the event that no wire instructions are provided to
      the
      Securities Administrator, by check mailed by first class mail to such
      Certificateholder at the address of such Holder appearing in the Certificate
      Register.

    The
      Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of
      the
      Securities Administrator by an authorized officer. Certificates bearing the
      manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time such
      signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the Securities
      Administrator shall bind the Securities Administrator, notwithstanding that
      such
      individuals or any of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the
      authentication and delivery of any such Certificates or did not hold such office
      at the date of such Certificate. No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
      under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless authenticated by
      the
      Securities Administrator by manual signature, and such authentication upon
      any
      Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such
      Certificate has been duly executed and delivered hereunder. All Certificates
      shall be dated the date of their authentication. On the Closing Date, the
      Securities Administrator shall authenticate the Certificates to be issued at
      the
      direction of the Depositor, or any affiliate thereof.

     

    Section
      5.02 Certificate
      Register; Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
      (a) The
      Securities Administrator shall maintain, in accordance with the provisions
      of
      Section 5.06, a Certificate Register for the Trust Fund in which, subject to
      the
      provisions of subsections (b) and (c) below and to such reasonable regulations
      as it may prescribe, the Securities Administrator shall provide for the
      registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates
      as
      herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate,
      the Securities Administrator shall execute and deliver, in the name of the
      designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same
      Class and aggregate Percentage Interest.

     

    At
      the
      option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for other
      Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the
      same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Certificates to be
      exchanged at the office or agency of the Securities Administrator. Whenever
      any
      Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Securities Administrator
      shall
      execute, authenticate and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder
      making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or
      surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by
      a
      written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities
      Administrator duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly
      authorized in writing. In the event, the Depositor or an Affiliate transfers
      the
      Class XP Certificates, or a portion thereof, to another Affiliate, it shall
      notify the Securities Administrator in writing of the affiliated status of
      the
      transferee. The Securities Administrator shall have no liability regarding
      the
      lack of notice with respect thereto.

     

    No
      service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any registration
      of
      transfer or exchange of Certificates, but 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 may be required.

     

    All
      Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be
      cancelled and subsequently destroyed by the Securities Administrator in
      accordance with the Securities Administrator’s customary
      procedures.

    (b) No
      transfer of a Private Certificate shall be made unless such transfer is made
      pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act and
      any
      applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration requirements
      under said Act and such state securities laws. Except with respect to (i) the
      initial transfer of the Class XP Certificates on the Closing Date, (ii) the
      transfer of the Class XP Certificates to the NIM Issuer or the NIM Trustee,
      or
      (iii) a transfer of the Class XP Certificates to the Depositor or any Affiliate
      of the Depositor, in the event that a transfer of a Private Certificate which
      is
      a Physical Certificate is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the
      Securities Act and such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities
      Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer shall
      certify to the Securities Administrator in writing the facts surrounding the
      transfer in substantially the form set forth in Exhibit
      H
      (the
“Transferor
      Certificate”)
      and
      either (i) there shall be delivered to the Securities Administrator a letter
      in
      substantially the form of Exhibit
      I-1
      (the
“Rule
      144A Letter”)
      (in
      the case of a Rule 144A Certificate) or (ii) there shall be delivered to the
      Securities Administrator at the expense of the transferor an Opinion of Counsel
      that such transfer may be made without registration under the Securities Act.
      

     

    In
      the
      event that a transfer of a Private Certificate which is a Book-Entry Certificate
      is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and such
      laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws,
      the
      Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer will be deemed to have made
      as of the transfer date each of the certifications set forth in the Transferor
      Certificate in respect of such Certificate and the transferee will be deemed
      to
      have made as of the transfer date each of the certifications set forth in the
      Rule 144A Letter in respect of such Certificate (if the Certificate is a Rule
      144A Certificate), in each case as if such Certificate were evidenced by a
      Physical Certificate. 

     

    The
      Depositor shall provide to any Holder of a Private Certificate and any
      prospective transferee designated by any such Holder, information regarding
      the
      related Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and such other information as shall
      be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule
      144A(d)(4) for transfer of any such Certificate without registration thereof
      under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration exemption provided by
      Rule
      144A. The Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall cooperate with the
      Depositor in providing the Rule 144A information referenced in the preceding
      sentence, including providing to the Depositor such information regarding the
      Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other matters regarding the Trust Fund
      as
      the Depositor shall reasonably request to meet its obligation under the
      preceding sentence. 

     

    Any
      Private Certificate sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation
      S
      shall be issued initially in the form of one or more permanent global
      Certificates in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons
      with
      the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit A to this Agreement added to the
      forms of such Certificates (each, a “Regulation
      S Global Security”),
      which
      shall be deposited on behalf of the subscribers for such Certificates
      represented thereby with the Trustee, as custodian for DTC and registered in
      the
      name of a nominee of DTC, duly executed and authenticated by the Trustee as
      hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amounts of the Regulation S Global
      Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made
      on the records of the Trustee or DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as
      hereinafter provided.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        77

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    Each
      Holder of a Regulation S Global Security shall be deemed to have represented
      and
      warranted to the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Securities
      Administrator and the Depositor and any of their respective successors that:
      (i)
      such Person is not a U.S. person within the meaning of Regulation S and was,
      at
      the time the buy order was originated, outside the United States and (ii) such
      Person understands that such Certificates have not been registered under the
      Securities Act, and that (x) until the expiration of the 40-day distribution
      compliance period (within the meaning of Regulation S), no offer, sale, pledge
      or other transfer of such Certificates or any interest therein shall be made
      in
      the United States or to or for the account or benefit of a U.S. person (each
      as
      defined in Regulation S), (y) if in the future it decides to offer, resell,
      pledge or otherwise transfer such Certificates, such Certificates may be
      offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) to a person which
      the
      seller reasonably believes is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) as
      defined in Rule 144A, that is purchasing such Certificates for its own account
      or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer to which notice is given
      that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (B) in an offshore
      transaction (as defined in Regulation S) in compliance with the provisions
      of
      Regulation S, in each case in compliance with the requirements of this
      Agreement; and it will notify such transferee of the transfer restrictions
      specified in this Section.

     

    Each
      Holder of a Private Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and
      does
      hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the Depositor and each Servicer
      against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is
      not
      made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

     

    Except
      with respect to (i) the initial transfer of the Class XP Certificates on the
      Closing Date, (ii) the transfer of the Class XP Certificates to the NIM Issuer
      or the NIM Trustee or (iii) a transfer of the Class XP Certificates to the
      Depositor or any Affiliate of the Depositor, no transfer of an ERISA-Restricted
      Certificate shall be made unless the Securities Administrator shall have
      received either (i) a representation from the transferee of such Certificate
      acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Securities
      Administrator (in the event such Certificate is a Private Certificate or a
      Residual Certificate, such requirement is satisfied only by the Securities
      Administrator’s receipt of a representation letter from the transferee
      substantially in the form of Exhibit
      I-2),
      to the
      effect that such transferee is not an employee benefit plan or arrangement
      subject to Section 406 of ERISA, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code
      or a
      plan subject to any Federal, state or local law (“Similar
      Law”)
      materially similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code, nor a
      person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement nor using the assets
      of
      any such plan or arrangement to effect such transfer (each such investor a
      “Plan”),
      (ii)
      in the case of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that has been the subject of
      an
      ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a representation that the purchaser is an
      insurance company that is purchasing such Certificates with funds contained
      in
      an “insurance company general account” (as such term is defined in Section V(e)
      of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”)
      95-60)
      and that the purchase and holding of such Certificates satisfy the requirements
      for exemptive relief under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 or (iii) in the
      case
      of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate presented for registration in the name
      of an
      employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, a plan or arrangement subject
      to Section 4975 of the Code (or comparable provisions of any subsequent
      enactments), or a plan subject to Similar Law, or a trustee of any such plan
      or
      any other person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement or using
      such
      plan’s or arrangement’s assets, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the
      Securities Administrator and the Depositor, which Opinion of Counsel shall
      not
      be an expense of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Securities Administrator or
      the
      Trust Fund, addressed to the Securities Administrator and the Depositor, to
      the
      effect that the purchase and holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate will
      not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction within the
      meaning of ERISA, Section 4975 of the Code or any Similar Law and will not
      subject the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, any other servicer
      or
      the Securities Administrator to any obligation in addition to those expressly
      undertaken in this Agreement or to any liability. For purposes of the preceding
      sentence, with respect to an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is not a Private
      Certificate or a Residual Certificate, in the event the representation letter
      referred to in the preceding sentence is not furnished, such representation
      shall be deemed to have been made to the Securities Administrator by the
      transferee’s (including an initial acquirer’s) acceptance of the
      ERISA-Restricted Certificates. In the event that such representation is
      violated, or any attempt is made to transfer to a plan or arrangement subject
      to
      Section 406 of ERISA, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan
      subject to Similar Law, or a person acting on behalf of any such plan or
      arrangement or using the assets of any such plan or arrangement, without such
      Opinion of Counsel, such attempted transfer or acquisition shall be void and
      of
      no effect.

    No
      transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate shall be made unless the
      Securities Administrator shall have received either a representation from the
      transferee of such ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate acceptable to and in
      form
      and substance satisfactory to the Securities Administrator to the effect that
      such transferee is not a Plan, or (ii) a representation that the purchase and
      holding of the ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate satisfy the requirements
      for
      exemptive relief under the statutory exemption for non-fiduciary service
      providers under Section 408(b)(17) of ERISA and Section 4975(d)(20) of the
      Code,
      PTCE 84-14, PTCE 90-1, PTCE 91-38, PTCE 95-60, PTCE 96-23 or some other
      applicable exemption, or in the case of a Plan subject to Similar Law, will
      not
      constitute a non-exempt violation of such Similar Law. In the event such a
      representation letter is not delivered, one of the foregoing representations,
      as
      appropriate, shall be deemed to have been made by the transferee’s (including an
      initial acquirer’s) acceptance of the ERISA-Restricted Trust Certificate. In the
      event that such representation is violated, such transfer or acquisition shall
      be void and of no effect. The Residual Certificates may not be sold to any
      employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA, any plan subject to Section
      4975 of the Code, or any plan subject to any Similar Law or any person investing
      on behalf of or with plan assets of such plan.

     

    The
      Securities Administrator shall have no duty to monitor transfers of beneficial
      interests in any Book-Entry Certificate and shall not be under liability to
      any
      Person for any registration of transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate
      that
      is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(b) or for making any payments
      due
      on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with
      respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the
      transfer was registered by the Securities Administrator in accordance with
      the
      foregoing requirements.

     

    (c) Each
      Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
      shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest
      to
      have agreed to be bound by the following provisions, and the rights of each
      Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly
      subject to the following provisions:

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        79

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (i) Each
      Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
      shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Securities
      Administrator of any change or impending change in its status as a Permitted
      Transferee;

     

    (ii) No
      Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate may be registered on the Closing
      Date or thereafter transferred, and the Securities Administrator shall not
      register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate unless, in addition to the
      Certificates required to be delivered to the Securities Administrator under
      subparagraph (b) above, the Securities Administrator shall have been furnished
      with an affidavit (a “Transfer
      Affidavit”)
      of the
      initial owner or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as
Exhibit
      G;

     

    (iii) Each
      Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate
      shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from any other Person to whom
      such Person attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual
      Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from any Person for whom such
      Person is acting as nominee, trustee or agent in connection with any Transfer
      of
      a Residual Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a
      Residual Certificate or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a
      Residual Certificate to any other Person if it has actual knowledge that such
      Person is not a Permitted Transferee;

     

    (iv) Any
      attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual
      Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 5.02(c) shall be
      absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported Transferee.
      If any purported transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate
      in
      violation of the provisions of this Section 5.02(c), then the last preceding
      Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof
      retroactive to the date of registration of Transfer of such Residual
      Certificate. Neither the Securities Administrator nor the Trustee shall have
      any
      liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual
      Certificate that is in fact not permitted by Section 5.02(b) and this Section
      5.02(c) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof
      or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions
      of
      this Agreement. The Securities Administrator shall be entitled but not obligated
      to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was in fact not a
      Permitted Transferee at the time it became a Holder or, at such subsequent
      time
      as it became other than a Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such
      Residual Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments so
      recovered by the Securities Administrator shall be paid and delivered by the
      Securities Administrator to the last preceding Permitted Transferee of such
      Certificate; and

     

    (v) The
      Depositor shall use its best efforts to make available, upon receipt of written
      request from the Securities Administrator, all information necessary to compute
      any tax imposed under Section 860E(e) of the Code as a result of a Transfer
      of
      an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Holder who is not a
      Permitted Transferee.

    The
      restrictions on Transfers of a Residual Certificate set forth in this Section
      5.02(c) shall cease to apply (and the applicable portions of the legend on
      a
      Residual Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers occurring after
      delivery to the Securities Administrator of an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion
      of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, or the
      Securities Administrator, to the effect that the elimination of such
      restrictions will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at
      any
      time that the Certificates are outstanding or result in the imposition of any
      tax on the Trust Fund, a Certificateholder or another Person. Each Person
      holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate hereby
      consents to any amendment of this Agreement which, based on an Opinion of
      Counsel furnished to the Securities Administrator, is reasonably necessary
      (a)
      to ensure that the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a
      Residual Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a Person
      that is not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel
      the
      Transfer of a Residual Certificate which is held by a Person that is not a
      Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee.

     

    (d) The
      preparation and delivery of all certificates and opinions referred to above
      in
      this Section 5.02 in connection with transfer shall be at the expense of the
      parties to such transfers.

     

    (e) Except
      as
      provided below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times remain registered
      in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at all times: (i) registration
      of the Certificates may not be transferred by the Securities Administrator
      except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain book entry
      records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership
      and
      transfers of such Book-Entry Certificates; (iii) ownership and transfers of
      registration of the Book-Entry Certificates on the books of the Depository
      shall
      be governed by applicable rules established by the Depository; (iv) the
      Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and expenses from
      its Depository Participants; (v) the Trustee and the Securities Administrator
      shall deal with the Depository, Depository Participants and indirect
      participating firms as representatives of the Certificate Owners of the
      Book-Entry Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights of Holders under
      this Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of such
      representatives shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with
      respect to different Certificate Owners; and (vi) the Securities Administrator
      may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished
      by
      the Depository with respect to its Depository Participants and furnished by
      the
      Depository Participants with respect to indirect participating firms and persons
      shown on the books of such indirect participating firms as direct or indirect
      Certificate Owners.

     

    All
      transfers by Certificate Owners of 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 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.

    If
      a
      holder of a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Certificate deposited with or
      on
      behalf of DTC wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Rule 144A
      Certificate for an interest in a Regulation S Global Security, or to transfer
      its interest in such Rule 144A Certificate to a Person who wishes to take
      delivery thereof in the form of an interest in a Regulation S Global Security,
      such holder, provided
      such
      holder or proposed transferee is not a U.S. person, may, subject to the rules
      and procedures of DTC, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for
      an
      equivalent beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security. Upon receipt
      by the Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar, of (I) instructions
      from DTC directing the Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar,
      to be
      credited a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security in an amount
      equal to the beneficial interest in such Rule 144A Certificate to be exchanged
      but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such holder’s
      Certificates held through a Regulation S Global Security, (II) a written order
      given in accordance with DTC’s procedures containing information regarding the
      participant account of DTC and, in the case of a transfer pursuant to and in
      accordance with Regulation S, the Euroclear or Clearstream account to be
      credited with such increase and (III) a certificate in the form of Exhibit
      I-3
      hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest stating that the exchange
      or transfer of such interest has been made in compliance with the transfer
      restrictions applicable to the Global Securities, including that the holder
      is
      not a U.S. person, and pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S, the
      Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar, shall reduce the principal
      amount of the Rule 144A Certificate and increase the principal amount of the
      Regulation S Global Security by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial
      interest in the Rule 144A Certificate to be exchanged, and shall instruct
      Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable, concurrently with such reduction,
      to
      credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in such
      instructions a beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security equal
      to
      the reduction in the principal amount of the Rule 144A Certificate.

     

    If
      a
      holder of a beneficial interest in a Regulation S Global Security deposited
      with
      or on behalf of DTC wishes at any time to transfer its interest in such
      Regulation S Global Security to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof
      in
      the form of an interest in a Rule 144A Certificate, such holder may, subject
      to
      the rules and procedures of DTC, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest
      for an equivalent beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Certificate. Upon receipt
      by the Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar, of (I) instructions
      from DTC directing the Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar,
      to
      cause to be credited a beneficial interest in a Rule 144A Certificate in an
      amount equal to the beneficial interest in such Regulation S Global Security
      to
      be exchanged but not less than the minimum denomination applicable to such
      holder’s Certificates held through a Rule 144A Certificate, to be exchanged,
      such instructions to contain information regarding the participant account
      with
      DTC to be credited with such increase, and (II) a certificate in the form of
      Exhibit I-4 hereto given by the holder of such beneficial interest and stating,
      among other things, that the Person transferring such interest in such
      Regulation S Global Security reasonably believes that the Person acquiring
      such
      interest in a Rule 144A Certificate is a QIB, is obtaining such beneficial
      interest in a transaction meeting the requirements of Rule 144A and in
      accordance with any applicable securities laws of any State of the United States
      or any other jurisdiction, then the Securities Administrator, as Certificate
      Registrar, will reduce the principal amount of the Regulation S Global Security
      and increase the principal amount of the Rule 144A Certificate by the aggregate
      principal amount of the beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security
      to be transferred and the Securities Administrator, as Certificate Registrar,
      shall instruct DTC, concurrently with such reduction, to credit or cause to
      be
      credited to the account of the Person specified in such instructions a
      beneficial interest in the Rule 144A Certificate equal to the reduction in
      the
      principal amount of the Regulation S Global Security. Transfers of interests
      in
      any Regulation S Global Security to U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation
      S)
      shall be limited to transfers made pursuant to the provisions of this paragraph.

    If
      (x)
      (i) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Securities Administrator in
      writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge
      its responsibilities as Depository, and (ii) the Securities Administrator or
      the
      Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, or (y) the Depositor
      notifies the Depository of its intent to terminate the book entry system through
      the Depository, the Depository Participants holding beneficial interests in
      the
      Book-Entry Certificates agree to initiate such termination, the Securities
      Administrator shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the Depository,
      of
      the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of definitive, fully
      registered Certificates (the “Definitive
      Certificates”)
      to
      Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Securities
      Administrator of the related Class of Certificates by the Depository,
      accompanied by the instructions from the Depository for registration, the
      Securities Administrator shall issue the Definitive Certificates. Neither the
      Depositor nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for any delay in
      delivery of such instruction and each may conclusively rely on, and shall be
      protected in relying on, such instructions. The Depositor shall provide the
      Securities Administrator with an adequate inventory of Certificates to
      facilitate the issuance and transfer of Definitive Certificates. 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 Securities Administrator, to the extent applicable with respect
      to such Definitive Certificates and the Securities Administrator shall recognize
      the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder;
      provided
      that the
      Securities Administrator shall not by virtue of its assumption of such
      obligations become liable to any party for any act or failure to act of the
      Depository.

     

    (f) Each
      Private Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or
      exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer and
      accompanied by IRS Form W-8ECI, W-8BEN, W-8IMY (and all appropriate attachments)
      or W-9 in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator, duly executed
      by
      the Certificateholder or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Each
      Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange
      shall be canceled and subsequently disposed of by the Securities Administrator
      in accordance with its customary practice. No service charge shall be made
      for
      any registration of transfer or exchange of Private Certificates, but the
      Securities Administrator 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 Private Certificates.

     

    Section
      5.03 Mutilated,
      Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.
      If (a)
      any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Securities Administrator, or
      the
      Securities Administrator receives evidence to its satisfaction of the
      destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to
      the
      Depositor, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator such security or
      indemnity as may be required by them to hold each of them harmless, then, in
      the
      absence of notice to the Securities Administrator that such Certificate has
      been
      acquired by a protected purchaser, the Securities Administrator 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 Class, tenor
      and Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate
      under this Section 5.03, the Securities Administrator may require the payment
      of
      a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be
      imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and
      expenses of the Securities Administrator) connected therewith. Any replacement
      Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 5.03 shall constitute complete
      and
      indefeasible evidence of ownership, 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
      Trustee, the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the
      Depositor, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee may treat the Person
      in
      whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for
      the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for
      all
      other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trustee, the Securities
      Administrator, the Depositor or any agent of the Depositor, the Securities
      Administrator or the Trustee shall be affected by any notice to the
      contrary.

     

    Section
      5.05 Access
      to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses.
      If
      three or more Certificateholders (a) request such information in writing from
      the Securities Administrator, (b) state that such Certificateholders desire
      to
      communicate with other Certificateholders with respect to their rights under
      this Agreement or under the Certificates, and (c) provide a copy of the
      communication which such Certificateholders propose to transmit, or if the
      Depositor or a Servicer shall request such information in writing from the
      Securities Administrator, then the Securities Administrator shall, within ten
      (10) Business Days after the receipt of such request, provide the Depositor,
      such Servicer or such Certificateholders at such recipients’ expense the most
      recent list of the Certificateholders of such Trust Fund held by the Securities
      Administrator, if any. The Depositor and every Certificateholder, by receiving
      and holding a Certificate, agree that the Securities Administrator shall not
      be
      held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to
      the
      list of the Certificateholders hereunder, regardless of the source from which

      or Consolidation of the Depositor.
      The
      Depositor will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as
      a
      corporation or federally chartered savings bank, as the case may be, under
      the
      laws of the United States or under the laws of one of the states thereof and
      will each obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign
      corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be
      necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, or

    Any
      Person into which the Depositor may be merged or consolidated, or any Person
      resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor shall be
      a
      party, or any person succeeding to the business of the Depositor, shall be
      the
      successor of the Depositor, 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.

     

    Section
      6.03 Limitation
      on Liability of the Depositor and Others.
      Neither
      the Depositor nor any of its directors, officers, employees or agents shall
      be
      under any liability to 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 or any such Person against any
      breach of representations or warranties made by it herein or protect the
      Depositor or any such Person from any liability which would otherwise be imposed
      by reasons of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the
      performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and
      duties hereunder. The Depositor and any director, officer, employee or agent
      of
      the Depositor may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie
      properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising
      hereunder. The Depositor and any director, officer, employee or agent of the
      Depositor shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against
      any
      loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any audit, controversy
      or
      judicial proceeding relating to a governmental taxing authority or 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
      gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless
      disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. The Depositor shall not be under
      any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not
      incidental to its respective duties hereunder and which in its opinion may
      involve it in any expense or liability; provided,
      however,
      that
      the Depositor may in its discretion undertake any such action (or direct the
      Trustee to undertake such actions for the benefit of the Certificateholders)
      that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the
      rights and duties of the parties hereto and interests of the Trustee and the
      Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of
      such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs
      and
      liabilities of the Trust Fund, the Depositor shall be entitled to be reimbursed
      therefor out of the Certificate Account.

     

    Section

      by
      such Servicer in the fulfillment of any of its Servicer’s obligations under the

    Section
      7.01 Events
      of Default.
      If an
      Event of Default described in any Servicing Agreement shall occur with respect
      to the related Servicer then, and in each and every such case, so long as such
      Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Master Servicer may, or
      at
      the direction of Certificateholders entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights
      the Master Servicer shall, by notice in writing to the applicable Servicer
      (with
      a copy to each Rating Agency), terminate all of the rights and obligations
      of
      such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement and in and to the
      Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. The Holders of Certificates evidencing
      at least 66% of the Voting Rights of Certificates affected by a Event of Default
      may waive such Event of Default; provided,
      however,
      that
      (a) an Event of Default with respect to any Servicer’s obligation to make
      Advances may be waived only by all of the Holders of the Certificates affected
      by such Event of Default and (b) no such waiver is permitted that would
      materially adversely affect any non consenting Certificateholder. On and after
      the receipt by such Servicer of such written notice of termination, all
      authority and power of such Servicer hereunder or under the applicable Servicing
      Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass
      to and be vested in the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer is hereby
      authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of such Servicer,
      as
      attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments,
      and
      to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect
      the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer
      and
      endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or
      otherwise.

     

    Section
      7.02 Master
      Servicer to Act; Appointment of Successor.
      Within
      120 days after the Master Servicer gives, and the applicable Servicer receives
      a
      notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01, the Master Servicer shall,
      subject to and to the extent provided in Section 7.03, and subject to the rights
      of the Master Servicer to appoint a successor Servicer pursuant to this Section
      7.02, be the successor to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under the
      applicable Servicing Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for
      herein and in such Servicing Agreement and shall be subject to all the
      responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer
      by the terms and provisions of such Servicing Agreement and applicable law
      including the obligation to make Advances pursuant to such Servicing Agreement
      (it being understood and agreed that if any Servicer fails to make an Advance,
      the Master Servicer shall do so unless a determination has been made that such
      Advance would constitute a Nonrecoverable Delinquency Advance or a
      Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance). As compensation therefor, the Master Servicer
      shall be entitled to all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans that the Servicer
      would have been entitled to charge to the Collection Account if the Servicer
      had
      continued to act under the Servicing Agreement including, if the Servicer was
      receiving the Servicing Fee at the Servicing Fee Rate set forth in the Servicing
      Agreement (as set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the
      related Group 1 Mortgage Loans and Group 2 Mortgage Loans, respectively) such
      Servicing Fee and the income on investments or gain related to the Collection
      Account.

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, the Master Servicer may, if it shall be unwilling to so act,
      or
      shall, if it is prohibited by applicable law from making Advances pursuant
      to
      the applicable Servicing Agreement, or if it is otherwise unable to so act,
      or,
      at the written request of Certificateholders entitled to a majority of the
      Voting Rights, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to
      appoint, any established mortgage loan servicing institution the appointment
      of
      which does not adversely affect the then current rating of the Certificates
      by
      each Rating Agency, as the successor to such Servicer under the applicable
      Servicing Agreement in the assumption of all or any part of the
      responsibilities, duties or liabilities of such Servicer. No such appointment
      of
      a successor to a Servicer hereunder shall be effective until the Depositor
      shall
      have consented thereto. Any successor to such Servicer shall be an institution
      which is a Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac approved seller/servicer in good standing,
      which has a net worth of at least $25,000,000, which is willing to service
      the
      Mortgage Loans and which executes and delivers to the Depositor and the Master
      Servicer an agreement accepting such delegation and assignment, containing
      an
      assumption by such Person of the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities,
      obligations and liabilities of such terminated Servicer, (other than liabilities
      of such terminated Servicer incurred prior to termination of such Servicer
      under
      Section 7.01), with like effect as if originally named as a party to this
      Agreement; provided
      that
      each Rating Agency acknowledges that its rating of the Certificates in effect
      immediately prior to such assignment and delegation will not be qualified or
      reduced, as a result of such assignment and delegation. Pending appointment
      of a
      successor to a Servicer hereunder, the Master Servicer, unless the Master
      Servicer is prohibited by law from so acting, shall, subject to this Section
      7.02, act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such
      appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer may make such arrangements
      for
      the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it,
      the
      Depositor and such successor shall agree; provided,
      however,
      that no
      such compensation shall be in excess of the Servicing Fee Rate and amounts
      paid
      to the Servicer from investments. The Master Servicer and such successor shall
      take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to
      effectuate any such succession. Neither the Master Servicer nor any other
      successor to a Servicer shall be deemed to be in default hereunder by reason
      of
      any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or
      any
      portion thereof or any failure to perform, or any delay in performing, any
      duties or responsibilities hereunder, in either case caused by the failure
      of
      the predecessor Servicer to deliver or provide, or any delay in delivering
      or
      providing, any cash, information, documents or records to it.

     

    Any
      successor Servicer shall give notice to the Mortgagors of such change of
      Servicer, in accordance with applicable federal and state law, and shall, during
      the term of its service as servicer, maintain in force the policy or policies
      that each Servicer is required to maintain pursuant to the applicable Servicing
      Agreement.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, the Master Servicer may not terminate a Servicer without
      cause.

      Servicer to Act as Servicer.
      In the

      the
      Master Servicer or another successor Servicer, shall thereupon assume all of
      the
      rights and obligations of the predecessor Servicer hereunder arising thereafter
      pursuant to Section 7.02.

    Section
      8.01 Duties
      of the Trustee and the Custodians.
      The
      Trustee, before the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default and after
      the curing of all Master Servicer Events of Default that may have occurred,
      shall undertake to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically
      set forth in this Agreement. In case a Master Servicer Event of Default has
      occurred and remains uncured, 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.

     

    The
      Trustee and the Custodians, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates,
      statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished
      to the Trustee or the Custodians, as applicable, that are specifically required
      to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement shall examine them
      to determine whether on their face they are in the form required by this
      Agreement, or with respect to the documents in the respective Custodial Files
      whether they satisfy the review criteria set forth in Section 2.02. None of
      the
      Trustee or the Custodians shall be responsible for the accuracy or content
      of
      any resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or
      other instrument.

     

    No
      provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee or the
      Custodians from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent
      failure to act or its own bad faith or willful misfeasance; provided,
      however,
      that:

     

    (a) unless
      a
      Master Servicer Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
      obtains actual knowledge has occurred and is continuing, 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
      the duties and obligations specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied
      covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee,
      and 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 and conforming to the requirements of this Agreement
      which it believed in good faith to be genuine and to have been duly executed

      proven that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts;
      and

      Trustee shall not be 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 evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights of

      shall have no responsibility to ascertain or confirm the genuineness of any
      signature of any such party or parties;

     

    (b) before
      taking any action under this Agreement, the Trustee and the Custodians may
      consult with counsel, financial advisers or accountants and the advice of any
      such counsel, financial advisers or accountants 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
      advice or Opinion of Counsel;

      unless requested in writing so to do by Holders of Certificates evidencing
      not
      less than 25% of the Voting Rights allocated to each Class of Certificates;

      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 assured to the Trustee by the security
      afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require indemnity
      satisfactory to the Trustee against such cost, expense or liability as a
      condition to taking any such action. The reasonable expense of every such
      examination shall be paid by the applicable Servicer or, if paid by the Trustee,
      shall be repaid by the Servicer upon demand from the applicable Servicer’s own
      funds;

      8.04 Trustee
      and Custodians Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
      The
      recitals contained herein and in the Certificates shall be taken as the
      statements of the Depositor and none of the Trustee or the Custodians assumes
      any responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee and the Custodians make
      no
      representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement or of the
      Certificates or of any Mortgage Loan or related document. None of the Trustee
      or
      the Custodians shall be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor,
      the Master Servicer, any Servicer or the Securities Administrator of any funds
      paid to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, any Servicer or the Securities
      Administrator in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn
      from
      the Collection Account or the Certificate Account by the Depositor, the Master
      Servicer, any Servicer, or the Securities Administrator.

    The
      Trustee shall have no responsibility (i) for filing or recording any financing
      or continuation statement in any public office at any time or to otherwise
      perfect or maintain the perfection of any security interest or lien granted
      to
      it hereunder (unless the Trustee shall have become and remains the successor
      Master Servicer) (ii) to see to any insurance (unless the Trustee shall have
      become the successor Master Servicer), or (iii) to confirm or verify the
      contents of any reports or certificates of the Servicers, Securities
      Administrator or Master Servicer delivered to the Trustee pursuant to this
      Agreement believed by the Trustee to be genuine and to have been signed or
      presented by the proper party or parties.

     

    The
      Securities Administrator executes the Certificates not in its individual
      capacity but solely as Securities Administrator of the Trust Fund created by
      this Agreement, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested
      in it by this Agreement. Each of the undertakings and agreements made on the
      part of the Securities Administrator on behalf of the Trust Fund in the
      Certificates is made and intended not as a personal undertaking or agreement
      by
      the Securities Administrator but is made and intended for the purpose of binding
      only the Trust Fund.

     

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

     

    Section
      8.06 Trustee’s
      Fees and Expenses.
      As
      compensation for its activities under this Agreement, the Trustee shall be
      paid
      an annual fee by the Securities Administrator pursuant to a separate agreement.
      The Trustee shall have no lien on the Trust Fund for the payment of such fees.
      The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed, from funds on deposit in the
      Certificate Account, amounts sufficient to indemnify and hold harmless the
      Trustee and any director, officer, employee, or agent of the Trustee against
      any
      loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred in
      connection with any claim or legal action relating to

     

    (a) this
      Agreement,

     

    (b) the
      Certificates, or

     

    (c) the
      performance of any of the Trustee’s duties under this Agreement,

     

    other
      than any loss, liability, or expense (i) resulting from any breach of any
      Servicer’s obligations in connection with its Servicing Agreement for which that
      Servicer has performed its obligation to indemnify the Trustee pursuant to
      Servicing Agreement, (ii) resulting from any breach of the Seller’s obligations
      in connection with any Sale Agreement for which it has performed its obligation
      to indemnify the Trustee pursuant to the Sale Agreement, (iii) resulting from
      any breach of the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder for which the Master
      Servicer has performed its obligation to indemnify the Trustee pursuant to
      this
      Agreement, or (iv) incurred because of willful misfeasance, bad faith, or
      negligence in the performance of any of the Trustee’s duties under this
      Agreement. This indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or
      the
      resignation or removal of the Trustee under this Agreement. Without limiting
      the
      foregoing, except for any expense, disbursement or advance arising from the
      Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misfeasance, the Trust Fund shall pay
      or reimburse the Trustee, for all reasonable expenses, disbursements, and
      advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement
      with
      respect to:

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        91

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (A) the
      reasonable compensation, expenses, and disbursements of its counsel not
      associated with the closing of the issuance of the Certificates,
      and

     

    (B) the
      reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of any accountant, engineer
      or appraiser that is not regularly employed by the Trustee, to the extent that
      the Trustee must engage them to perform services under this
      Agreement.

     

    Except
      as
      otherwise provided in this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be entitled to
      payment or reimbursement for any routine ongoing expenses incurred by the
      Trustee in the ordinary course of its duties as Trustee under this Agreement
      or
      for any other expenses.

     

    Section
      8.07 Eligibility
      Requirements for the Trustee.
      The
      Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation, banking association
      or
      other association organized and doing business under the laws of a 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, subject
      to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and the appointment
      of which would not cause any of the Rating Agencies to reduce or withdraw their
      respective then current ratings of the Certificates (or having provided such
      security from time to time as is sufficient to avoid such reduction) as
      evidenced in writing by each Rating Agency. If such corporation or association
      publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the
      requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for
      the
      purposes of this Section 8.07 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 condition so published. In
      case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with
      this
      Section 8.07, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the
      effect specified in Section 8.08. The entity serving as Trustee may have normal
      banking and trust relationships with the Depositor and its affiliates or with
      the Servicer and its affiliates; provided,
      however,
      that
      such entity cannot be an affiliate of the Depositor or of any Servicer other
      than the Trustee in its role as successor to the Master Servicer.

     

    Section
      8.08 Resignation
      and Removal of the Trustee.
      The
      Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created
      by giving written notice of resignation to the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
      the Securities Administrator and each Rating Agency not less than sixty (60)
      days before the date specified in such notice, when, subject to Section 8.09,
      such resignation is to take effect, and acceptance by a successor trustee in
      accordance with Section 8.09 meeting the qualifications set forth in Section
      8.07. If no successor trustee meeting such qualifications shall have been so
      appointed and have accepted appointment within thirty (30) days after the giving
      of such notice or resignation, the resigning Trustee may petition any court
      of
      competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

    If
      at any
      time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with Section
      8.07
      and shall fail to resign after written request thereto by the Depositor, (ii)
      the Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged as 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, (iii)(A) a tax is imposed with respect to the Trust Fund by any
      state in which the Trustee or the Trust Fund is located and (B) the imposition
      of such tax would be avoided by the appointment of a different trustee, or
      (iv)
      the Trustee fails to comply with its obligations under the last sentence of
      Section 9.04 in the preceding paragraph, Section 8.10 or Article XIII and such
      failure is not remedied within the lesser of ten (10) calendar days or such
      period in which the applicable Exchange Act Report can be timely filed (without
      taking into account any extensions), then, in the case of clauses (i) through
      (iv), the Depositor may remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee
      by
      written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which shall be delivered to the
      Trustee and one copy to the successor trustee.

     

    The
      Holders of Certificates entitled to a majority of the Voting Rights may at
      any
      time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument
      or
      instruments, in duplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys in fact
      duly authorized, one complete set of which shall be delivered to the Trustee
      so
      removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. The successor
      trustee shall notify each Rating Agency of any removal of the
      Trustee.

     

    Any
      resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee
      pursuant to this Section 8.08 shall become effective upon acceptance of
      appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 8.09.

     

    Section
      8.09 Successor
      Trustee.
      Any
      successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.08 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
      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 8.09
      unless at the time of its acceptance, the successor trustee is eligible under
      Section 8.07 and its appointment does not adversely affect the then current
      rating of the Certificates and has provided to the Depositor in writing and
      in
      form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor, all information
      reasonably requested by the Depositor in order to comply with its reporting
      obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to a replacement
      Trustee.

    Upon
      acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section
      8.09, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee
      hereunder to all Holders of Certificates and the Custodians. If the Depositor
      fails to mail such notice within ten (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
      8.10 Merger
      or Consolidation of the Trustee or a Custodian.
      Any
      corporation into which the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, may be merged
      or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation resulting
      from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or a
      Custodian, as applicable, shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to
      the
      business of the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, shall be the successor
      of
      the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, hereunder; provided
      that
      such corporation shall be eligible under Section 8.07 without the execution
      or
      filing of any paper or further act on the part of any of the parties hereto,
      anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

     

    Section
      8.11 Appointment
      of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.
      Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at any time, for the
      purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any
      part
      of the Trust Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note may at the time be
      located, the Trustee shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all
      instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as co-trustee or co-trustees
      jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all
      or
      any part of the Trust Fund, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such
      capacity and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust
      Fund or any part thereof, whichever is applicable, and, subject to the other
      provisions of this Section 8.11, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and
      trusts as the Trustee may consider appropriate. No co-trustee or separate
      trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a
      successor trustee under Section 8.09 and no notice to Certificateholders of
      the
      appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under
      Section 8.09.

     

    Every
      separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent permitted by law, be
      appointed and act subject to the following provisions and
      conditions:

     

    (a) To
      the
      extent necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Section 8.11, all rights,
      powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee, except
      for
      the obligation of the Trustee (as successor Master Servicer) under this
      Agreement to advance funds on behalf of the Master Servicer, shall be conferred
      or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate
      trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee
      or
      co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining
      in
      such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which
      any particular act or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder
      or
      as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent
      or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers,
      duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the applicable Trust
      Fund or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and
      performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the
      direction of the Trustee;

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        94

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (b) No
      trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable because of any act or omission
      of any other trustee hereunder and such appointment shall not, and shall not
      be
      deemed to, constitute any such separate trustee or co-trustee as agent of the
      Trustee;

     

    (c) The
      Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee
      or co-trustee; and

     

    (d) The
      Trust
      Fund, and not the Trustee, shall be liable for the payment of reasonable
      compensation, reimbursement and indemnification to any such separate trustee
      or
      co-trustee.

     

    Any
      notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have
      been given to each of the separate trustees and co-trustees, when and as
      effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any
      separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions
      of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance
      of the trusts conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified
      in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately,
      as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement,
      specifically including every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct
      of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every
      such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to
      the
      Master Servicer and the Depositor.

     

    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
      8.12 Tax
      Matters.
      It is
      intended that the assets with respect to which any REMIC election pertaining
      to
      the Trust Fund is to be made, as set forth in the Preliminary Statement, shall
      constitute, and that the conduct of matters relating to such assets shall be
      such as to qualify such assets as, a “real estate mortgage investment conduit”
as defined in, and in accordance with, the REMIC Provisions. The Securities
      Administrator shall acquire a Residual Certificate in each REMIC and shall
      act
      as the Tax Matters Person of each REMIC and perform various tax administration
      functions of each REMIC as its agent, as set forth in this Agreement,
provided
      that the
      Securities Administrator shall not be required to sign a Transfer Affidavit
      as
      required under Section 5.02(c)(ii) of this Agreement. If the Securities
      Administrator or an Affiliate is unable for any reason to fulfill its duties
      as
      Tax Matters Person for a REMIC, the holder of the largest Percentage Interest
      of
      the Residual Certificates in such REMIC shall become the successor Tax Matters
      Person of such REMIC. In its capacity as Tax Matters Person, the Securities
      Administrator shall:

     

    (a) prepare
      and file, in a timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit
      (REMIC) Income Tax Return (Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the
      Internal Revenue Service) and prepare and file with the Internal Revenue Service
      and applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or information returns
      for each taxable year with respect to each Trust REMIC containing such
      information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code
      or
      state or local tax laws, regulations, or rules, and furnish to
      Certificateholders the schedules, statements or information at such times and
      in
      such manner as may be required thereby;

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        95

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (b) within
      thirty (30) days of the Closing Date, apply for an employer identification
      number from the Internal Revenue Service via Form SS-4 or any other acceptable
      method for all tax entities and shall also furnish to the Internal Revenue
      Service, on Form 8811 or as otherwise may be required by the Code, the name,
      title, address, and telephone number of the person that the Holders of the
      Certificates may contact for tax information relating thereto, together with
      such additional information as may be required by such Form, and update such
      information at the time or times in the manner required by the
      Code;

     

    (c) make
      an
      election that each Trust REMIC be treated as a REMIC on the federal tax return
      for its first taxable year (and, if necessary, under applicable state
      law);

     

    (d) prepare
      and forward to the Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and,
      if necessary, state tax authorities, all information returns and reports as
      and
      when required to be provided to them in accordance with the REMIC Provisions,
      including the calculation of any original issue discount using the prepayment
      assumption (as described in the Prospectus Supplement);

     

    (e) provide
      information necessary for the computation of tax imposed on the transfer of
      a
      Residual Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee (a
“Non
      Permitted Transferee”),
      or an
      agent (including a broker, nominee or other middleman) of a Non Permitted
      Transferee, or a pass through entity in which a Non Permitted Transferee is
      the
      record holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and furnishing
      such information may be charged to the Person liable for such tax);

     

    (f) to
      the
      extent that they are under its control, conduct matters relating to such assets
      at all times that any Certificates are outstanding so as to maintain the status
      of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions;

     

    (g) not
      knowingly or intentionally take any action or omit to take any action that
      would
      cause the termination of the REMIC status of any Trust REMIC created
      hereunder;

     

    (h) pay,
      from
      the sources specified in the last paragraph of this Section 8.12, the amount
      of
      any federal or state tax, including prohibited transaction taxes as described
      below, imposed on any Trust REMIC before its termination when and as the same
      shall be due and payable (but such obligation shall not prevent the Securities
      Administrator or any other appropriate Person from contesting any such tax
      in
      appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Securities Administrator
      from
      withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of
      such proceedings);

     

    (i) cause
      federal, state or local income tax or information returns to be signed by the

    (j) maintain
      records relating to each of the Trust REMICs, including the income, expenses,
      assets, and liabilities thereof on a calendar year basis and on the accrual
      method of accounting and the fair market value and adjusted basis of the assets
      determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code, as may be necessary
      to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information;
      and

     

    (k) as
      and
      when necessary and appropriate, represent each Trust REMIC in any administrative
      or judicial proceedings relating to an examination or audit by any governmental
      taxing authority, request an administrative adjustment as to any taxable year
      of
      each Trust REMIC, enter into settlement agreements with any governmental taxing
      agency, extend any statute of limitations relating to any tax item of any Trust
      REMIC, and otherwise act on behalf of each Trust REMIC in relation to any tax
      matter or controversy involving it.

    

      The
        Securities Administrator shall file or cause to be filed with the Internal
        Revenue Service any form as may be applicable and shall furnish or cause
        to be
        furnished, to the Class XP Certificateholders and the Holders of the Offered
        Certificates (other than the Residual Certificates), any such forms, in the
        time
        or times and in the manner required by the Code.

       

    

    To
      enable
      the Securities Administrator to perform its duties under this Agreement, the
      Depositor shall provide to the Securities Administrator within ten (10) days
      after the Closing Date all information or data that the Securities Administrator
      requests in writing and determines to be relevant for tax purposes to the
      valuations and offering prices of the Certificates, including the price, yield,
      prepayment assumption, and projected cash flows of the Certificates and the
      Mortgage Loans. Moreover, the Depositor shall provide information to the
      Securities Administrator concerning the value, if any, to each Class of
      Certificates of the right to receive Basis Risk Carry Forward Amounts from
      the
      Excess Reserve Fund Account and the Supplemental Interest Trust. Thereafter,
      the
      Depositor shall provide to the Securities Administrator promptly upon written
      request therefor any additional information or data that the Securities
      Administrator may, from time to time, reasonably request to enable the
      Securities Administrator to perform its duties under this Agreement. The
      Depositor hereby indemnifies the Securities Administrator for any losses,
      liabilities, damages, claims, or expenses of the Securities Administrator
      arising from any errors or miscalculations of the Securities Administrator
      that
      result from any failure of the Depositor to provide, or to cause to be provided,
      accurate information or data to the Securities Administrator on a timely
      basis.

     

    If
      any
      tax is imposed on “prohibited transactions” of any Trust REMIC as defined in
      Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the “net income from foreclosure property” of
      the Lower-Tier REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any
      contribution to any Trust REMIC after the Startup Day pursuant to Section
      860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed, including any minimum tax
      imposed on any Trust REMIC pursuant to Sections 23153 and 24874 of the
      California Revenue and Taxation Code, if not paid as otherwise provided for
      herein, the tax shall be paid by (i) the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the
      Securities Administrator, as applicable if such tax arises out of or results
      from negligence of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities
      Administrator, as applicable in the performance of any of its obligations under
      this Agreement, (ii) a Servicer, in the case of any such minimum tax, and
      otherwise if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Servicer
      of
      any of its obligations under the applicable Servicing Agreement, (iii) a Seller
      if such tax arises out of or results from the Seller’s obligation to repurchase
      a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the applicable Sale Agreement or (iv) in all other
      cases, or if the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator,
      the
      Servicer or the Seller fails to honor its obligations under the preceding clause
      (i), (ii), or (iii), any such tax will be paid with amounts otherwise to be
      distributed to the Certificateholders, as provided in Section
      4.01(a).

    For
      as
      long as each Trust REMIC shall exist, the Securities Administrator shall act
      as
      specifically required herein, and the Securities Administrator shall comply
      with
      any directions of the Depositor or a Servicer stating that such directions
      are
      being given to assure such continuing treatment. In particular, the Securities
      Administrator shall not (a) sell or authorize the sale of all or any portion
      of
      the Mortgage Loans or of any investment of deposits in an Account unless such
      sale is as a result of a purchase or repurchase of the Mortgage Loans pursuant
      to this Agreement or (b) accept any contribution to any Trust REMIC after the
      Startup Day without receipt of an Opinion of Counsel that such action described
      in clause (a) or (b) will not result in the imposition of a tax on any Trust
      REMIC or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that
      any Certificates are outstanding.

     

    Section
      8.13 [Reserved]

    

      Section
        8.14 Tax
        Classification of the Excess Reserve Fund Account and Supplemental Interest
        Trust.
        For
        federal income tax purposes, the Securities Administrator shall treat the
        Excess
        Reserve Fund Account, the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Supplemental
        Interest Trust as beneficially owned by the holder of the Class XP Certificates
        and as a disregarded entity for so long as the Class XP Certificates are
        held by
        a single holder. The Securities Administrator shall treat the beneficial
        owners
        of the LIBOR Certificates as having entered into a notional principal contract
        with respect to the beneficial owners of the Class XP Certificates. Pursuant
        to
        each such notional principal contract, all beneficial owners of LIBOR
        Certificates shall be treated as having agreed to pay, on each Distribution
        Date, to the beneficial owners of the Class XP Certificates an aggregate
        amount
        equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount payable on such Distribution
        Date on the interest in the Upper-Tier REMIC corresponding to such Class
        of
        Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on such Class of Certificates on
        such Distribution Date (such excess, a “Class I Shortfall”). A Class I Shortfall
        payable from interest collections shall be allocated to each Class of
        Certificates to the extent that interest accrued on such Class for the related
        Interest Accrual Period at the Pass-Through Rate for a Class, computed by
        substituting the “REMIC Maximum Rate” for the “Net WAC Cap Rate” in the
        definition thereof, exceeds the amount of interest accrued for the related
        Interest Accrual Period based on the Net WAC Cap Rate, and a Class I Shortfall
        payable from principal collections shall be allocated to the most subordinate
        Class of LIBOR Certificates with an outstanding principal balance to the
        extent
        of such balance. In addition, pursuant to such notional principal contract,
        the
        beneficial owner of the Class XP Certificates shall be treated as having
        agreed
        to pay Basis Risk Carryforward Amounts from the Excess Reserve Fund Account
        and
        the Supplemental Interest Trust to the beneficial owners of the LIBOR
        Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Thus, each LIBOR
        Certificate shall be treated as representing not only ownership of regular
        interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC, but also ownership of an interest in (and
        obligations with respect to) a notional principal contract. For tax purposes,
        the notional principal contract shall be deemed to have a value in favor
        of the
        Certificates entitled to receive Basis Risk Carryforward Amounts of $10,000
        as
        of the Closing Date.

    Section

    Section
      8.16 Custodial
      Responsibilities.
      Each
      Custodian shall provide access to the related Mortgage Loan documents in
      possession of such Custodian regarding the related Mortgage Loans and REO
      Property and the servicing thereof to the Trustee, the Certificateholders,
      the
      FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the FDIC, such access being
      afforded only upon two (2) Business Days prior written request and during normal
      business hours at the office of such Custodian; provided,
      however,
      that
      unless otherwise required by law or any regulatory or administrative agency
      (including the FDIC), such Custodian shall not be required to provide access
      to
      such records and documentation if the provision thereof would violate the legal
      right to privacy of any Mortgagor. Each Custodian shall allow representatives
      of
      the above entities to photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall
      provide equipment for that purpose at the expense of the Trust that covers
      such
      Custodian’s actual costs.

     

    Upon
      receipt of a request for release by a Servicer substantially in the form of
      Exhibit
      L
      hereto,
      the related Custodian shall release within five (5) Business Days the related
      Mortgage File to such Servicer and the Trustee shall execute and deliver to
      such
      Servicer, without recourse, a request for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance
      or
      release or satisfaction of mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of
      the
      Mortgage (furnished by such Servicer), together with the Mortgage
      Note.

     

    The
      Custodians may resign at any time or may be terminated by the Trustee with
      cause, in each case, upon sixty (60) days written notice to the applicable
      Servicer, the Depositor and the Securities Administrator, in which event the
      Depositor will be obligated to appoint a successor. If no successor has been
      appointed and has accepted appointment within sixty (60) days after the
      resignation or termination of a Custodian, such Custodian may petition any
      court
      of competent jurisdiction for appointment of a successor.

     

    The
      Securities Administrator, pursuant to a separate agreement, shall pay to the
      Custodian its customary ongoing safekeeping and release fees. The Custodians
      shall have no lien on the Trust Fund for the payment of such fees. Each
      Custodian shall be entitled to be reimbursed, from funds on deposit in the
      Certificate Account, amounts sufficient to indemnify and hold harmless such
      Custodian and any director, officer, employee, or agent of such Custodian
      against any loss, liability, or expense (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
      incurred in connection with any claim or legal action relating to:

     

    (a) this
      Agreement;

    (b) the
      Certificates; or

     

    (c) the
      performance of any of a Custodian’s duties under this Agreement,

     

    other
      than any loss, liability, or expense (i) resulting from any breach of a
      Servicer’s obligations in connection with a Servicing Agreement for which the
      Servicer has performed its obligation to indemnify the related Custodian
      pursuant to such Servicing Agreement, (ii) resulting from any breach of the
      Seller’s obligations in connection with a Sale Agreement for which the Seller
      has performed its obligation to indemnify the related Custodian pursuant to
      such
      Sale Agreement, or (iii) incurred because of willful misfeasance, bad faith,
      or
      negligence in the performance of any of such Custodian’s duties under this
      Agreement. This indemnity shall survive the termination of this Agreement or
      the
      earlier resignation or removal of the related Custodian.

    ADMINISTRATION
      OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

    BY
      THE MASTER SERVICER

     

    Section
      9.01 Duties
      of the Master Servicer; Enforcement of Servicer’s Obligations.
      (a) The
      Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the
      Depositor and the Certificateholders, shall monitor the performance of the
      Servicers under the related Servicing Agreements, and (except as set forth
      below) shall use its reasonable good faith efforts to cause the Servicers to
      duly and punctually perform their duties and obligations thereunder as
      applicable. Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a Responsible
      Officer of the Master Servicer has actual knowledge, the Master Servicer shall
      promptly notify the Securities Administrator and the Trustee and shall specify
      in such notice the action, if any, the Master Servicer plans to take in respect
      of such default. So long as an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing,
      the Master Servicer shall take the actions specified in Article VII.


     

    If
      (i) a
      Servicer reports a delinquency on a monthly report and (ii) such Servicer,
      by 11
      a.m. (New York Time) on the Business Day preceding the related Remittance Date,
      neither makes a Delinquency Advance nor provides the Securities Administrator
      and the Master Servicer with a report certifying that such a Delinquency Advance
      would be a Nonrecoverable Delinquency Advance, then the Master Servicer shall
      deposit in the Certificate Account not later than the Business Day immediately
      preceding the related Distribution Date a Delinquency Advance in an amount
      equal
      to the difference between (x) with respect to each Scheduled Payment due on
      a
      Mortgage Loan that is delinquent (other than Relief Act Interest Shortfalls)
      and
      for which the related Servicer was required to make a Delinquency Advance
      pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement and (y) amounts deposited in the
      Collection Account to be used for Delinquency Advances with respect to such
      Mortgage Loan, except to the extent the Master Servicer determines any such
      Delinquency Advance to be a Nonrecoverable Delinquency Advance or Nonrecoverable
      Servicing Advance. Subject to the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall continue
      to make such Delinquency Advances for so long as the related Servicer is
      required to do so under the related Servicing Agreement. If applicable, on
      the
      Business Day immediately preceding the Distribution Date, the Master Servicer
      shall deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee stating that the Master
      Servicer elects not to make a Delinquency Advance in a stated amount and
      detailing the reason(s) it deems the Delinquency Advance to be a Nonrecoverable
      Delinquency Advance. Any amounts deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant
      to
      this Section 9.01 shall be net of the Servicing Fee for the related Mortgage
      Loans.

    (b) The
      Master Servicer shall pay the costs of monitoring the Servicers as required
      hereunder (including costs associated with (i) termination of any Servicer,
      (ii)
      the appointment of a successor servicer or (iii) the transfer to and assumption
      of, the servicing by the Master Servicer) and shall, to the extent permitted
      by
      the related Servicing Agreement, seek reimbursement therefor initially from
      the
      terminated Servicer. In the event the full costs associated with the transition
      of servicing responsibilities to the Master Servicer or to a successor servicer
      are not paid for by the predecessor or successor Servicer (provided
      such
      successor Servicer is not the Master Servicer), the Master Servicer may be
      reimbursed therefor by the Trust for out-of-pocket costs incurred by the Master
      Servicer associated with any such transfer of servicing duties from a Servicer
      to the Master Servicer or any other successor servicer.

     

    (c) If
      the
      Master Servicer assumes the servicing with respect to any of the Mortgage Loans,
      it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of any
      Servicer it replaces or for any errors or omissions of such
      Servicer.

     

    If
      the
      Depositor or an affiliate of the Depositor, is the owner of the servicing rights
      for a servicer and the Depositor chooses to terminate such servicer with or
      without cause and sell those servicing rights to a successor servicer, then
      the
      Depositor must provide thirty (30) days’ notice to the Master Servicer, such
      successor servicer must be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, the
      terminated servicer must be reimbursed for any unreimbursed Delinquency
      Advances, servicing fees and any related expenses, the successor servicer must
      be qualified to service mortgage loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and the
      Depositor must obtain prior written consent from the Rating Agencies that the
      transfer of the servicing of the mortgage loans will not result in a downgrade,
      qualification or withdrawal of the then current ratings of the Certificates.
      The
      costs of such transfer (including any costs of the Master Servicer) are to
      be
      borne by the Depositor.

     

    Neither
      the Depositor nor the Securities Administrator shall consent to the assignment
      by any Servicer of such Servicer’s rights and obligations under the Agreement
      without the prior written consent of the Master Servicer, which consent shall
      not be unreasonably withheld.

     

    Section
      9.02 Maintenance
      of Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance.
      The
      Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a blanket fidelity
      bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording coverage with
      respect to all directors, officers, directors, employees and other Persons
      acting on such Master Servicer’s behalf, and covering errors and omissions in
      the performance of the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder. The errors and
      omissions insurance policy and the fidelity bond shall be in such form and
      amount generally acceptable for entities serving as master servicers or
      trustees.

     

    Section
      9.03 Representations
      and Warranties of the Master Servicer and Others.
      (a) The
      Master Servicer hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor, the Securities
      Administrator and the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, as
      of
      the Closing Date that:

      any administrative decree or order to which it is subject or (C) constitute
      a

      constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of, any material contract,
      agreement or other instrument to which the Master Servicer is a party or by
      which it is bound or to which any of its assets are subject, which violation,
      default or breach would materially and adversely affect the Master Servicer’s
      ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement;

     

    (iii) this
      Agreement constitutes, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery hereof
      by the other respective parties hereto, a legal, valid and binding obligation

      except as such enforcement may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency,
      reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the enforcement of
      creditors’ rights in general, and by general equity principles (regardless of
      whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at
      law);

     

    (iv) the
      Master Servicer is not in default with respect to any order or decree of any
      court or any order or regulation of any federal, state, municipal or
      governmental agency to the extent that any such default would materially and
      adversely affect its performance hereunder;

     

    (v) the

      Servicer of its obligations under this Agreement;

     

    (vi) no
      litigation is pending or, to the best of the Master Servicer’s knowledge,
      threatened against the Master Servicer which would prohibit its entering into
      this Agreement or performing its obligations under this Agreement;

      ordinary course of business of the Master Servicer.

     

    (b) Section
      11.01 of this Agreement provides that the Depositor, at its option, may request
      the Master Servicer to solicit bids in a commercially reasonable manner, on
      or
      after the Initial Optional Termination Date (such event, the “Auction
      Call”),
      for
      the purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) at the
      Termination Price. The Master Servicer shall accommodate such request to conduct
      an Auction Call at its sole discretion. The Depositor hereby represents,
      covenants and agrees with any applicable NIM Issuer that it will not exercise
      its right to request the Master Servicer to solicit bids in a commercially
      reasonable manner, on or after the Initial Optional Termination Date, for the
      purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) unless it has
      received (x) written notification from the NIM Trustee that all of the
      outstanding notes issued under the applicable indenture have been paid in full
      or (y) an Officer’s Certificate of the NIM Issuer pursuant to the applicable
      section of the relevant indenture to the effect that all conditions precedent
      to
      the satisfaction and discharge of the indenture have been complied with. The
      Master Servicer shall give Avelo written notice of the occurrence of the Initial
      Optional Termination Date as promptly as practicable after the related Due
      Period upon which the Initial Optional Termination Date is based.

     

    (c) It
      is
      understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in
      this
      Section shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Master
      Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor, Securities Administrator, and the
      Trustee and hold them harmless against any loss, damages, penalties, fines,
      forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and other
      reasonable costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or
      assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a material breach of
      the
      Master Servicer’s representations and warranties contained in Section 9.03(a)
      above. It is understood and agreed that the enforcement of the obligation of
      the
      Master Servicer set forth in this Section 9.03 to indemnify the Depositor,
      Securities Administrator, and the Trustee constitutes the sole remedy of the
      Depositor and the Trustee, respecting a breach of the foregoing representations
      and warranties. Such indemnification shall survive any termination of the Master
      Servicer as Master Servicer hereunder and any termination of this
      Agreement.

     

    Any
      cause
      of action against the Master Servicer relating to or arising out of the breach
      of any representations and warranties made in this Section shall accrue upon
      discovery of such breach by either the Depositor, the Master Servicer,
      Securities Administrator or the Trustee or notice thereof by any one of such
      parties to the other parties.

     

    Section
      9.04 Master
      Servicer Events of Default.
      Each of
      the following shall constitute a “Master
      Servicer Event of Default”:

      received by it from any Servicer or required to be made by the Master Servicer
      under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of
      two
      (2) Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure,
      requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer
      by any other party hereto;

    (b) failure
      by the Master Servicer to duly observe or perform, in any material respect,
      any
      other covenants, obligations or agreements of the Master Servicer as set forth
      in this Agreement (including any obligation to cause any subservicer, Servicer
      or Reporting Subcontractor to take any action specified in Sections 13.07(a)(3),
      13.08(a) or 13.08(b)), which failure continues unremedied for a period of thirty
      (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring
      the
      same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee
      or to the Master Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates
      evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights; provided
      that the
      thirty (30) day cure period shall not apply so long as the Depositor is required
      to file Exchange Act Reports with respect to the Trust Fund, the failure to
      comply with the requirements set forth in Article XIII, for which the grace
      period shall not exceed the lesser of ten (10) calendar days or such period
      in
      which the applicable Exchange Act Report can be timely filed (without taking
      into account any extensions);

     

    (c) a
      decree
      or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction
      for
      the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency,
      bankruptcy, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or
      similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall
      have been entered against the Master Servicer and such decree or order shall
      have remained in force, undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty (60)
      days;

     

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

     

    (e) the
      Master Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts as they
      become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency
      or
      reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors,
      or
      voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations for three (3) Business
      Days;

     

    (f) except
      as
      otherwise set forth herein, the Master Servicer attempts to assign this
      Agreement or its responsibilities hereunder or to delegate its duties hereunder
      (or any portion thereof) without the consent of the Securities Administrator
      and
      the Depositor; or

     

    (g) the
      indictment of the Master Servicer for the taking of any action by the Master
      Servicer, any employee thereof, any Affiliate or any director or employee
      thereof that constitutes fraud or criminal activity in the performance of its
      obligations under this Agreement, in each case, where such indictment materially
      and adversely affects the ability of the Master Servicer to perform its
      obligations under this Agreement (subject to the condition that such indictment
      is not dismissed within ninety (90) days).

     

    In
      each
      and every such case, so long as a Master Servicer Event of Default shall not
      have been remedied, in addition to whatever rights the Trustee may have at
      law
      or equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance,
      the
      Trustee, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer, may, and (a) upon the
      request of the Holders of Certificates representing at least 51% of the Voting
      Rights (except with respect to any Master Servicer Event of Default related
      to a
      failure to comply with an Exchange Act Filing Obligation) or (b) the Depositor,
      in the case of a failure related to an Exchange Act Filing Obligation, shall,
      terminate with cause all the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer
      under
      this Agreement.

    The
      Depositor shall not be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of
      the
      Master Servicer, pursuant to the above paragraph, if a failure of the Master
      Servicer to identify a Subcontractor “participating in the servicing function”
within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB was attributable solely to
      the
      role or functions of such Subcontractor with respect to mortgage loans other
      than the Mortgage Loans.

     

    Upon
      receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power
      of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, shall pass to and be vested in
      any
      successor master servicer appointed hereunder which accepts such appointments.
      Upon written request from the Trustee or the Depositor, the Master Servicer
      shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity designated by the
      Trustee any and all documents and other instruments related to the performance
      of its duties hereunder as the Master Servicer and, place in such successor’s
      possession all such documents with respect to the master servicing of the
      Mortgage Loans and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary
      or
      appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, at the Master
      Servicer’s sole expense. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee
      and such successor master servicer in effecting the termination of the Master
      Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, including without limitation,
      the transfer to such successor master servicer for administration by it of
      all
      cash amounts which shall at the time be credited to the Certificate Account
      or
      are thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

     

    Upon
      the
      occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default, the Securities Administrator
      shall provide the Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably
      satisfactory to the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the
      Depositor in order to comply with its reporting obligation under Item 6.02
      of
      Form 8-K with respect to a successor master servicer in the event the Trustee
      should succeed to the duties of the Master Servicer as set forth
      herein.

     

    Section
      9.05 Waiver
      of Default.
      By a
      written notice, the Trustee may with the consent of a Holders of Certificates
      evidencing at least 51% of the Voting Rights waive any default by the Master
      Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences.
      Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any
      Master Servicer Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have
      been
      remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to
      any
      subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to
      the
      extent expressly so waived.

    Section
      9.06 Successor
      to the Master Servicer.
      Upon
      termination of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this
      Agreement, the Trustee shall appoint or may petition any court of competent
      jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor, which shall succeed to all
      rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the
      Master Servicer under this Agreement prior to the termination of the Master
      Servicer. Any successor shall be a Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac approved servicer
      in good standing and acceptable to the Depositor and the Rating Agencies. In
      connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such
      arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage
      Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided,
      however,
      that in
      no event shall any fees in respect of master servicing paid to such successor
      master servicer exceed any fees in respect of master servicing paid hereunder.
      In the event that the Master Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities
      under this Agreement are terminated, the Master Servicer shall continue to
      discharge its duties and responsibilities hereunder until the effective date
      of
      such termination with the same degree of diligence and prudence which it is
      obligated to exercise under this Agreement and shall take no action whatsoever
      that might impair or prejudice the rights of its successor. The termination
      of
      the Master Servicer shall not become effective until a successor shall be
      appointed pursuant hereto and shall in no event (i) relieve the Master Servicer
      of responsibility for the representations and warranties made pursuant to
      Section 9.03(a) hereof and the remedies available to the Trustee under Section
      9.03(b) hereof, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of Section
      9.03 hereof shall be applicable to the Master Servicer notwithstanding any
      such
      sale, assignment, resignation or termination of the Master Servicer or the
      termination of this Agreement; or (ii) affect the right of the Master Servicer
      to receive payment and/or reimbursement of any amounts accruing to it hereunder
      prior to the date of termination (or during any transition period in which
      the
      Master Servicer continues to perform its duties hereunder prior to the date
      the
      successor master servicer fully assumes its duties). 

     

    If
      no
      successor Master Servicer has accepted its appointment within ninety (90) days
      of the time the Trustee receives the resignation of the Master Servicer, the
      Trustee shall be the successor Master Servicer in all respects under this
      Agreement and shall have all the rights and powers and be subject to all the
      responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto, including the
      obligation to make Delinquency Advances; provided,
      however,
      that
      any failure to perform any duties or responsibilities caused by the Master
      Servicer’s failure to provide information required by this Agreement shall not
      be considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. In the Trustee’s capacity as
      such successor, the Trustee shall have the same limitations on liability herein
      granted to the Master Servicer. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall
      be
      entitled to receive the compensation, reimbursement and indemnities otherwise
      payable to the Master Servicer, including the fees and other amounts payable
      pursuant to Section 9.07 hereof.

     

    At
      least
      fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the effective date of such appointment,
      the
      Trustee shall provide written notice to the Depositor of such successor pursuant
      to this Section 9.06.

     

    Any
      successor master servicer appointed as provided herein, shall execute,
      acknowledge and deliver to the Master Servicer and to the Trustee an instrument
      accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations
      and warranties set forth in Section 9.03 hereof, and whereupon such successor
      shall become fully vested with all of the rights, powers, duties,
      responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Master Servicer, with
      like
      effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement. Any termination
      or
      resignation of the Master Servicer or termination of this Agreement shall not
      affect any claims that the Trustee may have against the Master Servicer arising
      out of the Master Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such
      termination or resignation or in connection with the Trustee’s assumption as
      successor master servicer of such obligations, duties and
      responsibilities.

    Upon
      a
      successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, the Master Servicer shall notify
      by mail the Trustee of such appointment.

     

    Section
      9.07 Compensation
      of the Master Servicer.
      As
      compensation for its activities under this Agreement, the Master Servicer and
      the Securities Administrator shall be paid, together and without duplication,
      the Combined Master Servicing and Securities Administrator Fee.

     

    Section
      9.08 Merger
      or Consolidation.
      Any
      Person into which the Master Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any
      Person resulting from any merger, conversion, other change in form or
      consolidation to which the Master Servicer shall be a party, or any Person
      succeeding to the business of the Master Servicer, shall be the successor to
      the
      Master Servicer 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 resulting Person to the Master Servicer shall (i) be a Person
      (or have an Affiliate) that is qualified and approved to service mortgage loans
      for Fannie Mae and FHLMC (provided, further,
      that a
      successor Master Servicer that satisfies subclause (i) through an Affiliate
      agrees to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with all applicable Fannie
      Mae and FHLMC guidelines) and (ii) have a net worth of not less than
      $25,000,000.

     

    Section
      9.09 Resignation
      of the Master Servicer.
      Except
      as otherwise provided in Sections 9.08 and 9.10 hereof, the Master Servicer
      shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it unless
      the
      Master Servicer’s duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable
      law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other
      activities carried on by it and cannot be cured. Any such determination
      permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an
      Opinion of Counsel that shall be independent to such effect delivered to the
      Trustee. No such resignation shall become effective until the Trustee shall
      have
      assumed, or a successor master servicer satisfactory to the Trustee and the
      Depositor shall have assumed, the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and
      obligations under this Agreement. Notice of such resignation shall be given
      promptly by the Master Servicer and the Depositor to the Trustee.

     

    At
      least
      fifteen (15) calendar days prior to the effective date of such resignation,
      the
      Master Servicer shall provide written notice to the Depositor of any successor
      pursuant to this Section.

     

    If
      at any
      time, Wells Fargo Bank, as Master Servicer, resigns under this Section 9.09,
      or
      is removed as Master Servicer pursuant to Section 9.04, then at such time Wells
      Fargo Bank shall also resign (and shall be entitled to resign) as Securities
      Administrator under this Agreement, pursuant to Section 10.07.

     

    Section
      9.10 Assignment
      or Delegation of Duties by the Master Servicer.
      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, or
      delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other Person to
      perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the
      Master Servicer; provided,
      however,
      that
      the Master Servicer shall have the right with the prior written consent of
      the
      Depositor (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and upon
      delivery to the Trustee and the Depositor of a letter from each Rating Agency
      to
      the effect that such action shall not result in a downgrade of the ratings
      assigned to any of the Certificates, to delegate or assign to or subcontract
      with or authorize or appoint any qualified Person to perform and carry out
      any
      duties, covenants or obligations to be performed and carried out by the Master
      Servicer hereunder. Notice of such permitted assignment shall be given promptly
      by the Master Servicer to the Depositor and the Trustee. If, pursuant to any
      provision hereof, the duties of the Master Servicer are transferred to a
      successor master servicer, the entire compensation payable to the Master
      Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor master
      servicer but in no event shall the fee payable to the successor master servicer
      exceed that payable to the predecessor master servicer.

    Section
      9.11 Limitation
      on Liability of the Master Servicer.
      Neither
      the Master Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents
      of
      the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trustee, the Securities
      Administrator, the Servicers 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 Master Servicer or any such person against
      any liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful malfeasance,
      bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties or by reason of
      reckless disregard for its obligations and duties under this Agreement. The
      Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master
      Servicer may rely in good faith on any document prima facie properly executed
      and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Master
      Servicer shall be under no obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any
      legal action that is not incidental to its duties as Master Servicer with
      respect to the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement and that in its opinion
      may
      involve it in any expenses or liability; provided,
      however,
      that
      the Master Servicer may in its sole discretion undertake any such action that
      it
      may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights
      and
      duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders
      hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any
      liability resulting therefrom, shall be liabilities of the Trust, and the Master
      Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the Master Servicer
      Account in accordance with the provisions of Section 9.12.

     

    The
      Master Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of any Servicer
      except to the extent that damages or expenses are incurred as a result of such
      act or omissions and such damages and expenses would not have been incurred
      but
      for the negligence, willful malfeasance, bad faith or recklessness of the Master
      Servicer in supervising, monitoring and overseeing the obligations of the
      Servicers as required under this Agreement.

     

    Section
      9.12 Indemnification;
      Third Party Claims.
      The
      Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Securities Administrator
      and the Trustee, and hold them harmless against, any and all claims, losses,
      penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and
      any
      other costs, liability, fees and expenses that the Depositor, the Securities
      Administrator or the Trustee may sustain as a result of the Master Servicer’s
      willful malfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties
      hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard for its obligations and duties
      under this Trust Agreement. Each of the Depositor, the Securities Administrator
      and the Trustee shall immediately upon notice to such Person notify the Master
      Servicer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Trust
      Agreement or the Mortgage Loans which would entitle the Depositor, the

      facts;

     

    (iii) the
      Securities Administrator shall not be liable with respect to any action or

      the related Mortgage Loan proceeds, (iii) an aggregate annual amount to
      indemnify the Master Servicer and itself for amounts due in accordance with
      this
      Agreement, and (iv) any other amounts which it or the Master Servicer is
      entitled to receive hereunder for reimbursement, indemnification or otherwise,
      including the amount to which the Securities Administrator is entitled pursuant
      to Section 3.02 hereof. The Securities Administrator shall be required to pay
      all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder and
      shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as provided in this
      Agreement.

      successor Securities Administrator pursuant to any of the provisions of this
      Section 10.07 shall become effective upon acceptance by the successor Securities
      Administrator of appointment as provided in Section 10.08 hereof. If at any
      time, Wells Fargo Bank, as Securities Administrator, resigns or is removed

    Section
      10.08 Successor

      provided in Section 10.07 hereof shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to
      the
      Depositor and to its predecessor Securities Administrator and the Trustee an
      instrument accepting such appointment hereunder and thereupon the resignation
      or

      and
      such successor Securities Administrator, 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 Securities Administrator herein. The Depositor, the Trustee, the Master
      Servicer and the predecessor Securities Administrator 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 Securities
      Administrator all such rights, powers, duties, and obligations.

     

    No
      successor Securities Administrator shall accept appointment as provided in
      this
      Section 10.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Securities
      Administrator shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 10.06 hereof
      and
      its appointment shall not adversely affect the then current rating of the
      Certificates, as confirmed in writing by each Rating Agency and has provided
      to
      the Depositor in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
      to
      the Depositor, all information reasonably requested by the Depositor in order

    Upon
      acceptance by a successor Securities Administrator of appointment as provided
      in
      this Section 10.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such
      Securities Administrator hereunder to all Holders of Certificates. If the
      Depositor fails to mail such notice within ten (10) days after acceptance by
      the
      successor Securities Administrator of appointment, the successor Securities
      Administrator shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the
      Depositor.

     

    Section
      10.09 Merger
      or Consolidation of the Securities Administrator.
      Any
      corporation or other entity into which the Securities Administrator may be

      other entity resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which
      the

      successor of the Securities Administrator hereunder, provided
      that
      such corporation or other entity shall be eligible under the provisions of
      Section 10.06 hereof, without the execution or filing of any paper or further
      act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
      notwithstanding.

     

    Section
      10.10 Assignment
      or Delegation of Duties by the Securities Administrator.

      Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other
      Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed
      by
      the Securities Administrator; provided,
      however,
      that
      the Securities Administrator shall have the right with the prior written consent
      of the Depositor (which shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), and
      upon
      delivery to the Trustee and the Depositor of a letter from each Rating Agency
      to
      the effect that such action shall not result in a downgrade of the ratings
      assigned to any of the Certificates, to delegate or assign to or subcontract
      with or authorize or appoint any qualified Person to perform and carry out
      any
      duties, covenants or obligations to be performed and carried out by the

      If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Securities Administrator
      are transferred to a successor securities administrator, the entire compensation
      payable to the Securities Administrator pursuant hereto shall thereafter be
      payable to such successor securities administrator but in no event shall the

    TERMINATION

     

    Section
      11.01 Termination
      upon Liquidation or Purchase of the Mortgage Loans.
      Subject
      to Section 11.03, the obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the
      Master Servicer, the Servicers, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee
      created hereby with respect to the Trust Fund shall terminate upon the earlier
      of: (a) the Depositor’s requesting the Master Servicer to exercise its option to
      conduct an Auction Call for the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and all other
      property of the Trust Fund on a non-recourse basis with no representations
      or
      warranties of any nature whatsoever and the sale of all of the Property of
      the
      Trust Fund, on or after the Initial Optional Termination Date and (b) the later
      of (i) the maturity or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto)
      of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of
      all
      REO Property and (ii) the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts
      required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement. In no event
      shall
      the trusts created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the
      death of the survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late
      Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date
      hereof. 

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        116

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    The
      Master Servicer shall accommodate such request to conduct an Auction Call at
      its
      sole discretion. The Property of the Trust Fund shall be sold by the Trustee
      as
      directed by the Depositor or the Master Servicer to the entity with the highest
      bid received by the Master Servicer from closed bids solicited by the Master
      Servicer or its designee; provided
      that to
      effectuate such sale, the Master Servicer or its designee shall have made
      reasonable efforts to sell all of the property of the Trust Fund for its fair
      market value in a commercially reasonable manner and on commercially reasonable
      terms, which includes the good faith solicitation of competitive bids to
      prospective purchasers that are recognized broker/dealers for assets of this
      type; and provided,
      further,
      that (i)
      such sale price shall not be less than the Par Value as certified by the
      Depositor, (ii) the Master Servicer receives bids from no fewer than three
      prospective purchasers (which may include the Majority Class XP
      Certificateholder) and (iii) such sale price shall be deposited with the Master
      Servicer prior to the Distribution Date following the month in which such value
      is determined; 

     

    The
      proceeds of the purchase or sale of such assets of the Trust pursuant to the
      Auction Call described in this Section 11.01 (other than any Fair Market Value
      Excess) shall be distributed to the Holders of the Certificates in accordance
      with Section 4.01. Any Fair Market Value Excess shall be distributed to the
      Holders of the Class RC Certificates pursuant to Section 4.01(d).

     

    Except
      to
      the extent provided above with regard to allocating any Fair Market Value Excess
      to the Holders of the Class RC Certificates, the proceeds of such a purchase
      or
      sale will be treated as a prepayment of the Mortgage Loans for purposes of
      distributions to Certificateholders. Accordingly, the sale of the Mortgage
      Loans
      and the REO Properties as a result of the exercise of the Auction Call will
      result in the final distribution on the Certificates on that Distribution
      Date.

     

    Section
      11.02 Final
      Distribution on the Certificates.
      If, on
      any Remittance Date, the Servicers notify the Securities Administrator that
      there are no Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other funds or assets in the
      Trust Fund other than the funds in the Collection Account, the Securities
      Administrator shall promptly send a Notice of Final Distribution to the
      applicable Certificateholders. If Avelo exercises its option to terminate the
      Trust Fund pursuant to clause (a) of Section 11.01, or if an Auction Call is
      requested pursuant to clause (b) of such Section, the Master Servicer, pursuant
      to the applicable Step 2 Assignment Agreements and by no later than the tenth
      (10th)
      day of
      the month of final distribution, shall notify the Trustee, each Servicer and
      the
      Securities Administrator of the final Distribution Date and of the applicable
      sale price of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.

    A
      Notice
      of Final Distribution, specifying the Distribution Date on which
      Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment of the final
      distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Securities
      Administrator by letter to Certificateholders mailed not later than the 15th
      day
      of the month of such final distribution. Any such Notice of Final Distribution
      shall specify (a) the Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the
      Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at
      the
      office therein designated, (b) the amount of such final distribution, (c) the
      location of the office or agency at which such presentation and surrender must
      be made, and (d) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution
      Date is not applicable, distributions being made only upon presentation and
      surrender of the Certificates at the office therein specified. The Securities
      Administrator will give such Notice of Final Distribution to each Rating Agency
      at the time such Notice of Final Distribution is given to
      Certificateholders.

     

    In
      the
      event the Mortgage Loans (and REO Properties) and all rights and obligations
      under the Servicing Agreements are purchased or sold pursuant to Section 11.01
      and pursuant to the applicable Step 2 Assignment Agreement, the Master Servicer
      on behalf of the Trustee is required thereunder to remit to the Securities
      Administrator the applicable Termination Price on the applicable Remittance
      Date
      immediately preceding the applicable final Distribution Date. Upon such final
      deposit with respect to the Trust Fund and the receipt by the Securities
      Administrator and the related Custodian of a request for release therefor in
      the
      form of Exhibit
      L,
      the
      Master Servicer shall direct the related Custodian to release and such Custodian
      shall promptly release to the Master Servicer or its designee the related
      Custodial Files for the Mortgage Loans.

     

    Upon
      presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Securities Administrator
      shall cause to be distributed to the Certificateholders of each Class (after
      reimbursement of all amounts due the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the
      Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Custodians hereunder), in each
      case on the final Distribution Date and in the order set forth in Section 4.01,
      in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests, with respect to
      Certificateholders of the same Class, an amount up to an amount equal to (i)
      as
      to each Class of Regular Certificates (except the Class XP Certificates), the
      Certificate Balance thereof plus for each such Class and the Class XP
      Certificates accrued interest thereon in the case of an interest-bearing
      Certificate and all other amounts to which such Classes are entitled pursuant
      to
      Section 4.01, and (ii) as to the Residual Certificates, the amount, if any,
      which remains on deposit in the Certificate Account after application pursuant
      to clause (i) above (other than the amounts retained to meet claims). The
      foregoing provisions are intended to distribute to each Class of Regular
      Certificates any accrued and unpaid interest and principal to which they are
      entitled based on the Pass-Through Rates and actual Class Principal Balances
      or
      notional principal balances set forth in the Preliminary Statement upon
      liquidation of the Trust Fund.

     

    In
      the
      event that any affected Certificateholders shall not surrender Certificates
      for
      cancellation within six (6) months after the date specified in the above
      mentioned written notice, the Securities Administrator shall give a second
      written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their
      Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect
      thereto. If within six months after the second notice all the applicable
      Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Securities
      Administrator may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take
      appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning
      surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of
      the
      funds and other assets which remain a part of the Trust Fund. If within one
      (1)
      year after the second notice all Certificates shall not have been surrendered
      for cancellation, the Class R Certificateholders shall be entitled to all
      unclaimed funds and other assets of the Trust Fund which remain subject
      hereto.

    Section
      11.03 Additional
      Termination Requirements.
      In the
      event of a Terminating Purchase as provided in Section 11.01, the Trust
      Fund shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional
      requirements, unless the Securities Administrator receives (i) a Special
      Tax Opinion, at the expense of the Purchaser, and (ii) a Special Tax
      Consent from each of the Holders of the Residual Certificates (unless the
      Special Tax Opinion specially provides that no REMIC-level tax will result
      from
      the Terminating Purchase):

     

    (a) The
      Securities Administrator on behalf of the Trustee shall sell all of the assets
      of the Trust Fund to the entity with the highest bid received pursuant to the
      Auction Call and, by the next Distribution Date after such sale, shall
      distribute to the Certificateholders the proceeds of such sale in complete
      liquidation of each of the Trust REMICs; and

     

    (b) The
      Securities Administrator shall attach a statement to the final federal income
      tax return for each of the Trust REMICs stating that pursuant to Treasury
      Regulations Section 1.860F-1, the first day of the ninety (90) day liquidation
      period for each such Trust REMIC was the date on which the Securities
      Administrator on behalf of the Trustee sold the assets of the Trust Fund to
      the
      entity with the highest bid received pursuant to the Auction Call.

      owned by the Depositor or any of its Affiliates or by the Seller or any of
      its
      Affiliates shall be deemed not to be outstanding (and shall not be considered
      when determining the percentage of Certificateholders consenting or when
      calculating the total number of Certificates entitled to consent) for purposes
      of determining if the requisite consents of Certificateholders under this
      Section 12.01 have been obtained.

     

    Promptly
      after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement or any Servicing
      Agreement requiring the consent of Certificateholders, the Trustee shall furnish
      written notification of the substance or a copy of such amendment to each
      Certificateholder and each Rating Agency.

     

    It
      shall
      not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 12.01
      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.

     

    Nothing
      in this Agreement shall require the Trustee, any Custodian, the Master Servicer
      or the Securities Administrator to enter into an amendment which modifies its
      obligations or liabilities without its consent and in all cases without
      receiving an Opinion of Counsel (which Opinion shall not be an expense of the
      Trustee, any Custodian, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or
      the
      Trust Fund), satisfactory to the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Securities
      Administrator, as applicable, that (i) such amendment is permitted and is not
      prohibited by this Agreement or the applicable Servicing Agreement and that
      all
      requirements for amending this Agreement or such Servicing Agreement have been
      complied with; and (ii) either (A) the amendment does not adversely affect
      in
      any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder or (B) the
      conclusion set forth in the immediately preceding clause (A) is not required
      to
      be reached pursuant to this Section 12.01.

    Notwithstanding
      the Trustee’s consent to, or the Master Servicer’s request for, any amendment of
      any Servicing Agreement pursuant to the terms of this Section 12.01, such
      Servicing Agreement cannot be amended without the consent of the applicable
      Servicer. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall be responsible
      for
      any failure by such Servicer to consent to any amendment to the applicable
      Servicing Agreement.

     

    Section
      12.02 Recordation
      of Agreement; Counterparts.
      This
      Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real
      property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which
      any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in
      any
      other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation shall
      be caused to be effected by the Depositor at the expense of the Trust, but
      only
      if an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such recordation materially and
      beneficially affects the interests of the Certificateholders is delivered to
      the
      Depositor.

     

    For
      the
      purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as herein provided
      and
      for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number
      of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original,
      and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same
      instrument.

     

    Section
      12.03 Governing
      Law.
      THIS
      AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF
      THE
      STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER
      THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS
      AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH
      SUCH LAWS.

     

    Section
      12.04 Intention
      of Parties.
      It is
      the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance (i) of the Mortgage
      Loans by the Depositor and (ii) of the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the
      Trustee each be, and be construed as, an absolute sale thereof. It is, further,
      not the intention of the parties that such conveyances be deemed a pledge
      thereof. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties,
      such assets are held to be the property of the Depositor, or if for any other
      reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in either
      of such assets, then (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security
      agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of
      New
      York and (ii) the conveyances provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed
      to
      be an assignment and a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee, for the benefit
      of
      the Certificateholders, of a security interest in all of the assets transferred,
      whether now owned or hereafter acquired.

     

    The
      Depositor, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall, to the extent
      consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure
      that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Trust
      Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest
      of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout
      the term of the Agreement. The Depositor shall arrange for filing any Uniform
      Commercial Code continuation statements in connection with any security interest
      granted or assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the
      Certificateholders.

      for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any
      failure to properly prepare and/or timely file such Form 8-K, where such failure
      results from the Securities Administrator’s inability or failure to receive on a
      timely basis, any information from any other party hereto or under the
      applicable servicing agreement needed to prepare, arrange for execution or
      file
      such Form 8-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful
      misconduct.

    After
      preparing the Form 10-D, the Securities Administrator shall forward
      electronically a draft copy of the Form 10-D to the Depositor for review. No
      later than two Business Days following the tenth calendar day after the related
      Distribution Date, a duly authorized representative of the Master Servicer
      in
      charge of the master servicing function shall sign the Form 10-D and return
      such
      signed Form 10-D to the Securities Administrator and Depositor, and no later
      than 5:00 p.m. New York City time on the fifteenth calendar day after such

      the Commission. If a Form 10-D cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed
      Form 10-D needs to be amended, the Securities Administrator shall follow the
      procedures set forth in Section 13.05. Promptly (but no later than one Business
      Day) after filing with the Commission, the Securities Administrator shall make
      available on its internet website (located at www.ctslink.com) a final executed

      Administrator of its duties under this Section related to the timely preparation
      and filing of Form 10-D is contingent upon such parties strictly observing
      all
      applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section.
      The
      Securities Administrator shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage
      or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare
      and/or timely file such Form 10-D, where such failure results from the
      Securities Administrator’s inability or failure to receive on a timely basis,
      any information from any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for
      execution or file such Form 10-D, not resulting from its own negligence, bad
      faith or willful misconduct.

     

    Form
      10-D
      requires the registrant to indicate (by checking “yes” or “no”) that it “(1) has
      filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange

      registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to
      such
      filing requirements for the past 90 days.” The Depositor hereby represents to
      the Securities Administrator that the Depositor has filed all such required
      reports during the preceding 12 months and that it has been subject to such
      filing requirement for the past 90 days. The Depositor shall notify the

      days after the end of each fiscal year of the Trust or such earlier date as

      with servicing criteria described under Section 13.07 identifies any material
      instance of noncompliance, disclosure identifying such instance of
      noncompliance, or if each Reporting Servicer’s report on assessment of
      compliance with servicing criteria is not included as an exhibit to such Form
      10-K, disclosure that such report is not included and an explanation why such
      report is not included, (iii)(A) the registered public accounting firm
      attestation report for each Reporting Servicer, as described under Section

      such report is not included, and (iv) a Sarbanes-Oxley Certification as
      described in Section 13.06. Any disclosure or information in addition to the
      disclosure or information specified in items (i) through (iv) above that is
      required to be included on Form 10-K (“Additional Form 10-K Disclosure”) shall
      be determined and prepared by and at the direction of the Depositor pursuant
      to
      the following paragraph and the Securities Administrator shall have no duty
      or
      liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional
      Form
      10-K Disclosure, except as set forth in this Section 13.04. 

     

    As
      set
      forth on Exhibit O hereto, no later than March 1 of each year that the Trust
      is
      subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, commencing in 2007, (i)
      certain parties to the GSR Mortgage Loan Trust 2007-OA1 Mortgage Pass-Through
      Certificates, Series 2007-OA1 transaction shall be required to provide to the
      Securities Administrator and the Depositor, to the extent known, in
      EDGAR-compatible form, or in such other form as otherwise agreed upon by the
      Securities Administrator and such party, the form and substance of any
      Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, if applicable and (ii) the Depositor shall
      approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the
      inclusion of the Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K. The Depositor
      shall be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred
      by the Securities Administrator in connection with including any Additional
      Form
      10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K pursuant to this Section.

     

    After
      preparing the Form 10-K, the Securities Administrator shall forward
      electronically a draft copy of the Form 10-K to the Depositor for review. No
      later than 12:00 noon New York City time on the fourth Business Day prior to
      the
      10-K Filing Deadline, a senior officer of the Depositor shall sign the Form
      10-K
      and return such signed Form 10-K to the Securities Administrator. If a Form
      10-K
      cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 10-K needs to be amended,
      the Securities Administrator shall follow the procedures set forth in Section
      13.05. Promptly (but no later than one Business Day) after filing with the
      Commission, the Securities Administrator shall make available on its internet
      website located at (located at www.ctslink.com) a final executed copy of each
      Form 10-K prepared by the Securities Administrator. The parties to this
      Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Securities Administrator
      of
      its duties under this Section related to the timely preparation and filing
      of
      Form 10-K is contingent upon such parties (and any Additional Servicer or
      Servicing Function Participant) strictly observing all applicable deadlines
      in
      the performance of their duties under this Section 13.04, Section 13.06, Section
      13.01, and Section 13.07. The Securities Administrator shall have no liability
      for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out of or with respect to any
      failure to properly prepare and/or timely file such Form 10-K, where such
      failure results from the Securities Administrator’s inability or failure to
      receive on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto or under
      the applicable Servicing Agreement needed to prepare, arrange for execution
      or
      file such Form 10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful
      misconduct.

    Form
      10-K
      requires the registrant to indicate (by checking “yes” or “no”) that it “(1) has
      filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
      Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the
      registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to
      such
      filing requirements for the past 90 days.” The Depositor hereby represents to
      the Securities Administrator that the Depositor has filed all such required
      reports during the preceding 12 months and that it has been subject to such
      filing requirement for the past 90 days. The Depositor shall notify the
      Securities Administrator in writing, no later than March 15th if the answer
      to
      the questions should be no. The Securities Administrator shall be entitled
      to
      rely on such representations in preparing, executing and/or filing any such
      report.

     

    Section
      13.05 Form
      15 Filing.

     

    Prior
      to
      January 30 of the first year in which the Securities Administrator is able
      to do
      so under applicable law, the Master Servicer shall sign and the Securities
      Administrator shall prepare and file a Form 15 relating to the automatic
      suspension of reporting in respect of the Trust under the Exchange Act.


     

    In
      the
      event that the Securities Administrator becomes aware that it will be unable
      to
      timely file with the Commission all or any required portion of any Form 8-K,
      10-D or 10-K required to be filed by this Agreement because required disclosure
      information was either not delivered to it or delivered to it after the delivery
      deadlines set forth in this Agreement or for any other reason, the Securities
      Administrator shall immediately notify the Depositor. In the case of Form 10-D
      and 10-K, the parties to this Agreement shall cooperate and cause such other
      Servicers or Servicing Function Participants, as applicable, to cooperate,
      to
      prepare and file a Form 12b-25 and a 10-DA and 10-KA as applicable, pursuant
      to
      Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Securities
      Administrator shall, upon receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure
      Information and upon the approval and direction of the Depositor, include such
      disclosure information on the next Form 10-D. In the event that any previously
      filed Form 10-D or 10-K needs to be amended, the Securities Administrator shall
      notify the Depositor and prepare any necessary 10-DA or 10-KA. Any Form 15,
      Form
      12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K or 10-D shall be signed by a duly authorized
      representative of the Master Servicer in charge of the master servicing
      function. Any amendment to Form 10-K shall be signed by the Depositor. The
      parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by the Securities
      Administrator of its duties under this Section related to the timely preparation
      and filing of Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, 10-D or
      10-K
      is contingent upon each such party performing its duties under this Section.
      The
      Securities Administrator shall have no liability for any loss, expense, damage
      or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare
      and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Forms
      8-K,
      10-D or 10-K, where such failure results from the Securities Administrator’s
      inability or failure to receive on a timely basis, any information from or
      on
      behalf of any other party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or
      file such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Forms 8-K, 10-D or 10-K,
      not
      resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

      Certification.

     

    Each
      Form
      10-K shall include a Sarbanes-Oxley Certification, required to be included
      therewith pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. Each Servicer, the Securities
      Administrator and the Master Servicer shall cause any Servicing Function
      Participant engaged by it to provide to the Person who signs the Sarbanes-Oxley
      Certification (the “Certifying Person”), by March 15 of each year in which the
      Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherwise
      within a reasonable period of time upon request, a certification (each, a
“Back-Up Certification”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-1 (in the
      case of the Master Servicer) and Exhibit J-2 (in the case of the Securities
      Administrator), upon which the Certifying Person, the entity for which the
      Certifying Person acts as an officer, and such entity’s officers, directors and
      Affiliates (collectively with the Certifying Person, “Certification Parties”)
      can reasonably rely. The senior officer of the Depositor shall serve as the
      Certifying Person on behalf of the Trust. In the event the Master Servicer,
      the
      Securities Administrator, the Trustee or any Servicing Function Participant
      engaged by parties is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this
      Agreement, or any applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be, such
      party shall provide a Back-Up Certification to the Certifying Person pursuant
      to
      this Section with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement
      or any applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be.

     

    The
      Master Servicer shall enforce any obligation of the Servicers, to the extent
      set
      forth in the related Servicing Agreement, to deliver to the Master Servicer
      a
      certification similar to the Back-Up Certification within the time frame set
      forth in, and in such form and substance as may be required pursuant to, the
      related Servicing Agreement.

     

    Section
      13.07 Report
      on Assessment of Compliance and Attestation.

     

    (a) On
      or
      before March 15th of each calendar year, commencing in 2008:

     

    (1) Each
      of
      the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and each Custodian shall
      deliver to the Depositor and the Securities Administrator a report regarding
      the
      Master Servicer’s, the Securities Administrator’s or Custodian’s, as applicable,
      assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria applicable to it during
      the
      immediately preceding calendar year, as required under Rules 13-A-18 and 15d-18
      of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB; provided,
      however,
      the
      Securities Administrator and each Custodian shall deliver such report until
      a
      Form 15 is filed pursuant to Section 13.06. Such report shall be signed by
      an
      authorized officer of such Person and shall address each of the Servicing
      Criteria applicable to it identified in Exhibit
      K
      hereto
      delivered to the Depositor concurrently with the execution of this Agreement.
      To
      the extent any of the Servicing Criteria so specified are not applicable to
      such
      Person, with respect to asset-backed securities transactions taken as a whole
      involving such Person and that are backed by the same asset type backing the
      Certificates, such report shall include such a statement to that effect. The
      Depositor and its respective officers and directors shall be entitled to rely
      on
      upon each such servicing criteria assessment.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        131

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (2) Each
      of
      the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Custodians shall
      deliver to the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer
      a
      report of a registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports
      on,
      the assessment of compliance made by Master Servicer, the Securities
      Administrator or such Custodian, as applicable, and delivered pursuant to the
      preceding paragraphs. Such attestation shall be in accordance with Rules
      1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the
      Exchange Act, including, without limitation that in the event that an overall
      opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state
      in such report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Such report must
      be
      available for general use and not contain restricted use language. To the extent
      any of the Servicing Criteria are not applicable to such Person, with respect
      to
      asset-backed securities transactions taken as a whole involving such Person
      and
      that are backed by the same asset type backing the Certificates, such report
      shall include such a statement to that effect.

     

    (3) The
      Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer and Reporting Subcontractor to deliver
      to the Depositor an assessment of compliance and accountant’s attestation as and
      when provided in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 13.07.

     

    (4) The
      Securities Administrator shall cause each Reporting Subcontractor under its
      employ, if any, to deliver to the Depositor and the Master Servicer an
      assessment of compliance and accountant’s attestation as and when provided in
      paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section.

     

    (b) Each
      assessment of compliance provided by the Securities Administrator, the Master
      Servicer or a Custodian pursuant to Section 13.07(a)(2) shall address each
      of
      the Servicing Criteria applicable to it specified on a Exhibit
      K
      hereto
      delivered to the Depositor concurrently with the execution of this Agreement
      or,
      in the case of a securities administrator, master servicer or custodian
      subsequently appointed as such, on or prior to the date of such appointment.
      An
      assessment of compliance provided by a Subcontractor pursuant to Section
      13.07(a)(3) or (4) need not address any elements of the Servicing Criteria
      other
      than those specified pursuant to Section 13.07(a)(1).

    (a) The
      Master Servicer shall cause any subservicer used by the Master Servicer and
      shall cause each Servicer to cause any subservicer used by such servicer for
      the
      benefit of the Depositor to comply with the provisions of this Article XIII
      to
      the same extent as if such Servicer or subservicer were the Master Servicer
      (except with respect to the Master Servicer’s duties with respect to preparing
      and filing any Exchange Act Reports or as the Certifying Person). The Master
      Servicer shall be responsible for obtaining from each Servicer and subservicer
      and delivering to the Depositor any servicer compliance statement required
      to be
      delivered by such Servicer or subservicer pursuant to the second paragraph
      of
      Section 13.04, any assessment of compliance and attestation required to be
      delivered by such Servicer or subservicer under Section 13.07 and any
      certification required to be delivered to the Certifying Person under Section
      13.05 as and when required to be delivered.

     

    (b) It
      shall
      not be necessary for the Master Servicer, any Servicer, any subservicer or
      the
      Securities Administrator to seek the consent of the Depositor or any other
      party
      hereto to the utilization of any Subcontractor. The Master Servicer or the
      Securities Administrator, as applicable, shall promptly upon request provide
      to
      the Depositor (or any designee of the Depositor, such as the Master Servicer
      or
      administrator) a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to
      the
      Depositor) of the role and function of each Subcontractor utilized by such
      Person (or in the case of the Master Servicer, any Servicer or any subservicer),
      specifying (i) the identity of each such Subcontractor, (ii) which (if any)
      of
      such Subcontractors are “participating in the servicing function” within the
      meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, and (iii) which elements of the Servicing
      Criteria will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each
      Subcontractor identified pursuant to clause (ii) of this paragraph.

     

    As
      a
      condition to the utilization of any Subcontractor determined to be a Reporting
      Subcontractor, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator, as
      applicable, shall cause any such Subcontractor used by such Person (or in the
      case of the Master Servicer, any Servicer or any subservicer) for the benefit
      of
      the Depositor to comply with the provisions of Sections 13.07 of this Agreement
      to the same extent as if such Subcontractor were the Master Servicer (except
      with respect to the Master Servicer’s duties with respect to preparing and
      filing any Exchange Act Reports or as the Certifying Person) or the Securities
      Administrator, as applicable. The Master Servicer or the Securities
      Administrator, as applicable, shall be responsible for obtaining from each
      Subcontractor and delivering to the Depositor and the Master Servicer, any
      assessment of compliance and attestation required to be delivered by such
      Subcontractor under Section 13.07, in each case as and when required to be
      delivered.

    Ladies

    In
      accordance with Section 2.02 of the above-captioned Master Servicing and Trust
      Agreement (the “Trust
      Agreement”),
      the
      undersigned, as Custodian, for each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan
      Schedule for which the undersigned is specified as the Custodian (other than
      any
      Mortgage Loan listed in the attached exception report), it has
      received:

     

    (i) the
      original Mortgage Note, endorsed as provided in the following form: “Pay to the
      order of ________, without recourse”; and

     

    (ii) except
      with respect to a MERS Loan, an executed Assignment of Mortgage (which may
      be
      included in a blanket assignment or assignments).

     

    Based
      on
      its review and examination and only as to the foregoing documents, such
      documents appear regular on their face and related to such Mortgage
      Loan.

     

    The
      Custodian has made no independent examination of any documents contained in
      each
      Mortgage File beyond the review specifically required in the Trust Agreement.
      The Custodian makes no representations as to: (i) the validity, legality,
      sufficiency, enforceability, recordability or genuineness of any of the
      documents contained in each Mortgage File of any of the Mortgage Loans
      identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or (ii) the collectibility,
      insurability, effectiveness or suitability of any such Mortgage Loan or the
      perfection or priority of any Mortgage. Notwithstanding anything herein to
      the
      contrary, the Custodian has made no determination and makes no representations
      as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all right, title
      and
      interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and
      to
      that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable form or sufficient
      to
      effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee thereof, under the
      Mortgage to which the assignment relates.

    (e) except
      with respect to a MERS Loan, originals of any intervening Mortgage assignment
      or
      certified copies in either case evidencing recording; provided
      that the

    (f) if
      provided, originals of all assumption, modification, agreements or certified
      copies thereof, in either case with evidence of recording if required to
      maintain the lien of the mortgage or if otherwise required, or, if recordation
      is not required, an original or copy of the agreement;

     

    (g) an

      such power of attorney relates is recorded, and (2) if provided, an original
      or
      copy of any surety agreement or guaranty agreement;

     

    (i) for

    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 a Class [R][RC][RX] Certificate (the “Certificate”)
      issued
      pursuant to the Master Servicing and Trust Agreement (the “Agreement”),
      among
      GS Mortgage Securities Corp., as depositor (the “Depositor”),
      Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”)
      and as
      a custodian, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Master Servicer (in such capacity,
      the
“Master
      Servicer”)
      and
      Securities Administrator (in such capacity, the “Securities
      Administrator”),
      and
      U.S. Bank National Association, as a custodian. 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 for the benefit of the Depositor, the Securities Administrator
      and the Trustee.

     

    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 for its own account. The Transferee has no knowledge
      that any such affidavit is false.

     

    3. The
      Transferee has been advised of, 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) for 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 of, 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.)

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        G-1

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    5. The
      Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 5.02(c) 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(c) 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 Securities
      Administrator a certificate substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit
      H
      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 has historically paid its debts as they have come due, intends to
      pay
      its debts as they come due in the future, and understands that the taxes payable
      with respect to the Certificate may exceed the cash flow with respect thereto
      in
      some or all periods and intends to pay such taxes as they become due. 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 a “noneconomic residual
      interest” within the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations promulgated
      pursuant to the Code and that the transferor of a noneconomic residual interest
      will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual
      interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer was to impede the
      assessment or collection of tax.

     

    11. The
      Transferee will not cause income from the Certificate to be attributable to
      a
      foreign permanent establishment or fixed base, within the meaning of an
      applicable income tax treaty, of the Transferee or any other U.S.
      person.

     

    12. Check
      one
      of the following:

     

    o
      The
      present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the
      Certificate, as applicable, does not exceed the sum of:

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        G-2

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    (i) the
      present value of any consideration given to the Transferee to acquire such
      Certificate;

     

    (ii) the
      present value of the expected future distributions on such Certificate;
      and

     

    (iii) the
      present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding such
      Certificate as the related REMIC generates losses.

     

    For
      purposes of this calculation, (i) the Transferee is assumed to pay tax at the
      highest rate currently specified in Section 11(b) of the Code (but the tax
      rate
      in Section 55(b)(1)(B) of the Code may be used in lieu of the highest rate
      specified in Section 11(b) of the Code if the Transferee has been subject to
      the
      alternative minimum tax under Section 55 of the Code in the preceding two years
      and will compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the
      alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a
      discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Section 1274(d)
      of the Code for the month of the transfer and the compounding period used by
      the
      Transferee.

     

    o
      The
      transfer of the Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections
      1.860E-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly,

     

    (i) the
      Transferee is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations
      Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Certificate will only
      be
      taxed in the United States;

     

    (ii) at
      the
      time of the transfer, and at the close of the Transferee’s two fiscal years
      preceding the year of the transfer, the Transferee had gross assets for
      financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related
      to
      the Transferee within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulations Section
      1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10
      million;

     

    (iii) the
      Transferee will transfer the Certificate only to another “eligible corporation,”
as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), in a
      transaction that satisfies the requirements of Sections 1.860E-1(c)(4)(i),
      (ii)
      and (iii) and Section 1.860E-1(c)(5) of the U.S. Treasury Regulations;
      and

     

    (iv) the
      Transferee determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Certificate
      based on reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing
      and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment
      assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Transferee) that it
      has
      determined in good faith.

     

    o
      None of
      the above.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        G-3

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    


     

    13. The
      Transferee (a) is not an employee benefit plan that is subject to Title I of
      ERISA or a plan that is subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject
      to
      any federal, state or local law that is substantially similar to Title I of
      ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and the Transferee is not acting on behalf
      of
      or investing plan assets of such a plan or (b) if this certificate has been
      the
      subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, the transferee is an insurance
      company that is purchasing this certificate with funds contained in an
“insurance company general account” (as such term is defined in Section V(e) of
      Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (“PTCE
      95-60”))
      and
      the purchase and holding of such Certificates satisfy the requirements for
      exemptive relief under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60.

     


    
      
        
        

      

      
        G-4

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    


    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 duly authorized
      officer and its corporate seal to be hereunto affixed, duly attested, this

      Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”),
      and
      are being disposed by us in a transaction that is exempt from the registration
      requirements of the Act, (b) we have not offered or sold any Certificates to,
      or
      solicited offers to buy any Certificates from, any person, or otherwise
      approached or negotiated with any person with respect thereto, in a manner
      that
      would be deemed, or taken any other action which would result in, a violation
      of
      Section 5 of the Act and (c) to the extent we are disposing of a Residual
      Certificate, (A) we have no knowledge the Transferee is not a Permitted
      Transferee and (B) after conducting a reasonable investigation of the financial
      condition of the Transferee, we have no knowledge and no reason to believe
      that
      the Transferee will not pay all taxes with respect to the Residual Certificates
      as they become due and (C) we have no reason to believe that the statements
      made
      in paragraphs 7, 10 and 11 of the Transferee’s Residual Transfer Affidavit are
      false.

    Ladies
      and Gentlemen:

     

    In
      connection with our acquisition of the above Certificates we certify that (a)
      we
      understand that the Certificates are not being registered under the Securities
      Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”),
      or
      any state securities laws and are being transferred to us in a transaction
      that
      is exempt from the registration requirements of the Act and any such laws,
      (b)
      we have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that
      we
      are capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investments in the
      Certificates, (c) we have had the opportunity to ask questions of and receive
      answers from the Depositor concerning the purchase of the Certificates and
      all
      matters relating thereto or any additional information deemed necessary to
      our
      decision to purchase the Certificates, (d) either we are purchasing a Class
      1A-1, Class 2A-1, Class 2A-2, Class 2A-3A, Class 2A-3B or Class 2A-4
      Certificate, or we are not an employee benefit plan that is subject to Title
      I
      of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended
      (“ERISA”),
      or a
      plan or arrangement that is subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue
      Code
      of 1986, as amended (the “Code”),
      or a
      plan subject to any federal, state or local law materially similar to the
      foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code, nor are we acting on behalf of any
      such plan or arrangement or using the assets of any such plan or arrangement
      to
      effect such acquisition, or, with respect to an ERISA-Restricted Certificate
      that has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, the purchaser
      is
      an insurance company that is purchasing this certificate with funds contained
      in
      an “insurance company general account” (as such term is defined in Section V(e)
      of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (“PTCE
      95-60”))
      and
      the purchase and holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificates satisfy the
      requirements for exemptive relief under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60, (e)
      we
      have not, nor has anyone acting on our behalf offered, transferred, pledged,
      sold or otherwise disposed of the Certificates, any interest in the Certificates
      or any other similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a
