    This
      TRUST AGREEMENT, dated as of July 1, 2006
      (the
“Agreement”), is by and among STRUCTURED ASSET SECURITIES CORPORATION, a
      Delaware corporation, as depositor (the “Depositor”), AURORA LOAN SERVICES LLC,
      as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), and U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION,
      a national banking association, as trustee (the “Trustee”).

     

    PRELIMINARY
      STATEMENT

     

    The
      Depositor has acquired the Mortgage Loans from Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc.
      (the “Seller”), and at the Closing Date is the owner of the Mortgage Loans and
      the other property being conveyed by it to the Trustee hereunder for inclusion
      in the Trust Fund. On the Closing Date, the Depositor will acquire the
      Certificates from the Trust Fund as consideration for its transfer to the Trust
      Fund of the Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust Fund.
      The Depositor has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement
      to provide for the conveyance to the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans and the
      other
      property constituting the Trust Fund. All covenants and agreements made by
      the
      Seller in the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement and by the Depositor, the Master
      Servicer and the Trustee herein with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the
      other
      property constituting the Trust Fund are for the benefit of the Holders from
      time to time of the Certificates and, to the extent provided herein, any NIMS
      Insurer and the Swap Counterparty. The Depositor, the Trustee and the Master
      Servicer are entering into this Agreement, and the Trustee is accepting the
      Trust Fund created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt
      and
      sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.

     

    As
      provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund (other than (i)
      the
      Basis Risk Reserve Fund, (ii) the Capitalized Interest Account, (iii) the rights
      to receive Prepayment Premiums distributable to the Class P Certificates, (iv)
      the Cap Agreements and the Cap Agreement Account, (v) the Swap Agreements and
      the Supplemental Interest Trust. (vi) the Class X Account and (vii) the Lower
      Tier Interests) be treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising four
      real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a “REMIC” or, in the alternative,
      the “MTA SWAP REMIC,” the “Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC,” “REMIC 1” and “REMIC 2”).
      Each Certificate (other than the Class C, Class R and Class P Certificates)
      represents ownership of one or more regular interests in REMIC 2 for purposes
      of
      the REMIC Provisions. In addition, each LIBOR Certificate represents (i) the
      right to receive payments with respect to Excess Interest and (ii) the
      obligation to make payments in respect of Class I Shortfalls. In addition,
      each
      of the Class 1-A2A1 and Class 1-A3A1A Certificates represents ownership of
      the
      related Cap Agreement. The Class R Certificate represents ownership of the
      sole
      Class of residual interest in each of the MTA SWAP REMIC, the Fixed Rate SWAP
      REMIC, REMIC 1 and REMIC 2 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        
        

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    REMIC
      2
      shall hold as its assets the several Classes of uncertificated REMIC 1 Regular
      Interests and each such REMIC 1 Regular Interest is hereby designated as a
      regular interest in REMIC 1. REMIC 1 shall hold as its assets the several
      Classes of uncertificated Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests and each
      such
      Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interest is hereby designated as a regular
      interest in the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC. The Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC shall hold

    LIBOR:
      With
      respect to the first Accrual Period, the Initial LIBOR Rate. With respect to
      each subsequent Accrual Period, a per annum rate determined on the LIBOR
      Determination Date in the following manner by the Trustee on the basis of the
      “Interest Settlement Rate” set by the British Bankers’ Association (the “BBA”)
      for one-month United States dollar deposits, as such rates appear on the
      Telerate Page 3750, as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such LIBOR Determination
      Date.

     

    If
      on
      such a LIBOR Determination Date, the BBA’s Interest Settlement Rate does not
      appear on the Telerate Page 3750 as of 11:00 a.m. (London time), or if the
      Telerate Page 3750 is not available on such date, the Trustee will obtain such
      rate from Reuters’ “page LIBOR 01” or Bloomberg’s page “BBAM.” If such rate is
      not published for such LIBOR Determination Date, LIBOR for such date will be
      the
      most recently published Interest Settlement Rate. In the event that the BBA
      no
      longer sets an Interest Settlement Rate, the Trustee will designate an
      alternative index that has performed, or that the Trustee expects to perform,
      in
      a manner substantially similar to the BBA’s Interest Settlement Rate. The
      Trustee will select a particular index as the alternative index only if it
      receives an Opinion of Counsel (a copy of which shall be furnished to any NIMS
      Insurer), which opinion shall be an expense reimbursed from the Certificate
      Account pursuant to Section 4.04, that the selection of such index will not
      cause any of the REMICs to lose their classification as REMICs for federal
      income tax purposes.

                Loans.

            


    

     

    (a)           Concurrently
      with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor does hereby
      transfer, assign, set over, deposit with and otherwise convey to the Trustee,

      Such conveyance includes, without limitation, the right to all payments of

      before such date), and all such payments due after such date but received prior
      to such date and intended by the related Mortgagors to be applied after such
      date together with all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to
      the Collection Account, the Cap Agreement Account, the Certificate Account
      and
      all amounts from time to time credited to and the proceeds of the Certificate
      Account, any Custodial Accounts, any Escrow Account established pursuant to
      Section 9.06, the Basis Risk Reserve Fund established pursuant to Section 5.06
      and all amounts from time to time credited to and the proceeds of each such
      account, the Class X Account established pursuant to Section 5.12 and all
      amounts from time to time credited to and the proceeds of each such account,
      any
      REO Property and the proceeds thereof, the Depositor’s rights under any
      Insurance Policies related to the Mortgage Loans, the Depositor’s security
      interest in any collateral pledged to secure the Mortgage Loans, including
      the
      Mortgaged Properties, and any proceeds of the foregoing, to have and to hold,
      in
      trust; and the Trustee declares that, subject to the review provided for in
      Section 2.02, it has received and shall hold the Trust Fund, as trustee, in
      trust, for the benefit and use of the Holders of the Certificates and for the
      purposes and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement,
      and, concurrently with such receipt, has caused to be executed, authenticated
      and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, in exchange for the Trust
      Fund, Certificates in the authorized denominations evidencing the entire
      ownership of the Trust Fund.

    Concurrently
      with the execution of this Agreement, the Swap Agreements shall be delivered
      to
      the Trustee. In connection therewith, the Depositor hereby directs the Trustee
      (solely in its capacity as such) and the Trustee is hereby authorized to execute
      and deliver the Swap Agreements (on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust)
      for the benefit of, the Certificateholders. The Seller, the Master Servicer,
      the
      Depositor, the Servicers and the Certificateholders (by their acceptance of
      such
      Certificates) acknowledge and agree that the Trustee is executing and delivering
      the Swap Agreements solely in its capacity as Trustee of the Supplemental
      Interest Trust and the Trust Fund not in its individual capacity. The Trustee
      shall have no duty or responsibility to enter into any other interest rate
      swap
      agreement upon the expiration or termination of the Swap
      Agreements.

     

    Concurrently
      with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor does hereby
      assign to the Trustee all of its rights and interest under the Mortgage Loan
      Sale Agreement, including all rights of the Sellers under the Servicing
      Agreements and each related Transfer Agreement (including the right to enforce
      the Transferor’s obligation pursuant to the PPTLS) but, in each case, only to
      the extent assigned under the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement. The Trustee hereby
      accepts such assignment and delegation, and shall be entitled to exercise all
      the rights of the Depositor under the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement as if, for
      such purpose, it were the Depositor. The foregoing sale, transfer, assignment,
      set-over, deposit, delegation and conveyance does not and is not intended to
      result in the creation or assumption by the Trustee of any obligation of the
      Depositor, the Sellers or any other Person in connection with the Mortgage
      Loans
      or any other agreement or instrument relating thereto except as specifically
      set
      forth herein.

     

    (b)           In
      connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor does hereby deliver
      to, and deposit with, or cause to be delivered to and deposited with, the
      Trustee, and/or a Custodian acting on the Trustee’s behalf, the following
      documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan (each a “Mortgage
      File”) so transferred and assigned:

     

    (i)           with
      respect to each Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage Note endorsed without
      recourse in proper form to the order of the Trustee, as shown on Exhibit B-4
      hereto, or in blank (in each case, with all necessary intervening endorsements,
      as applicable) or with respect to any lost Mortgage Note, a lost note affidavit
      stating that the original Mortgage Note was lost, misplaced or destroyed,
      together with a copy of the related Mortgage Note;

    
      
        
        

      

      
        66

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (ii)           if
      applicable, the original of any guarantee, security agreement or pledge
      agreement executed in connection with the Mortgage Note, assigned to the
      Trustee;

     

    (iii)           with
      respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Loan, the original
      recorded Mortgage with evidence of recording indicated thereon and the original
      recorded power of attorney, with evidence of recording thereon. If, in
      connection with any Mortgage Loan, the Depositor cannot deliver the Mortgage
      or
      power of attorney with evidence of recording thereon on or prior to the Closing
      Date because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such
      Mortgage has been delivered for recordation or because such Mortgage or power
      of
      attorney has been lost, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered
      to
      the Trustee (or the applicable Custodian), in the case of a delay due to
      recording, a true copy of such Mortgage or power of attorney, pending delivery
      of the original thereof, together with an Officer’s Certificate of the Depositor
      certifying that the copy of such Mortgage or power of attorney delivered to
      the
      Trustee (or its Custodian) is a true copy and that the original of such Mortgage
      or power of attorney has been forwarded to the public recording office, or,
      in
      the case of a Mortgage or power of attorney that has been lost, a copy thereof
      (certified as provided for under the laws of the appropriate jurisdiction)
      and a
      written Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee and the Depositor that
      an
      original recorded Mortgage or power of attorney is not required to enforce
      the
      Trustee’s interest in the Mortgage Loan;

     

    (iv)           the
      original of each assumption, modification or substitution agreement, if any,
      relating to the Mortgage Loans, or, as to any assumption, modification or
      substitution agreement which cannot be delivered on or prior to the Closing
      Date
      because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such assumption,
      modification or substitution agreement has been delivered for recordation,
      a
      photocopy of such assumption, modification or substitution agreement, pending
      delivery of the original thereof, together with an Officer’s Certificate of the
      Depositor certifying that the copy of such assumption, modification or
      substitution agreement delivered to the Trustee (or the applicable Custodian)
      is
      a true copy and that the original of such agreement has been forwarded to the
      public recording office;

     

    (v)           with
      respect to each Non-MERS Mortgage Loan, an original Assignment of Mortgage,
      in
      form and substance acceptable for recording. The related Mortgage shall be
      assigned either (A) in blank, without recourse or (B) to “U.S. Bank National
      Association, as Trustee of the Lehman XS Trust Mortgage Pass-Through
      Certificates, Series 2006-12N,” without recourse;

     

    (vi)           if
      applicable, such original intervening assignments of the Mortgage, notice of
      transfer or equivalent instrument (each, an “Intervening Assignment”), as may be
      necessary to show a complete chain of assignment from the originator, or, in
      the
      case of an Intervening Assignment that has been lost, a written Opinion of
      Counsel delivered to the Trustee that such original Intervening Assignment
      is
      not required to enforce the Trustee’s interest in the Mortgage
      Loans;

    
      
        
        

      

      
        67

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (vii)           with
      respect to any Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative Loan, the original
      mortgagee title insurance policy or attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of
      title, and, if applicable, the original Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or
      certificate;

     

    (viii)           the
      original of any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent instrument
      executed in connection with the Mortgage or as to any security agreement,
      chattel mortgage or their equivalent instrument that cannot be delivered on
      or
      prior to the Closing Date because of a delay caused by the public recording
      office where such document has been delivered for recordation, a photocopy
      of
      such document, pending delivery of the original thereof, together with an
      Officer’s Certificate of the Depositor certifying that the copy of such security
      agreement, chattel mortgage or their equivalent instrument delivered to the
      Trustee (or the applicable Custodian) is a true copy and that the original
      of
      such document has been forwarded to the public recording office;

     

    (ix)           with
      respect to any manufactured housing contract, any related manufactured housing
      sales contract, installment loan agreement or participation interest;
      and

     

    (x)           with
      respect to any Cooperative Loan, the Cooperative Loan Documents.

     

    The
      parties hereto acknowledge and agree that the form of endorsement attached
      hereto as Exhibit B-4 is intended to effect the transfer to the Trustee, for
      the
      benefit of the Certificateholders, of the Mortgage Notes and the
      Mortgages.

     

    (c)           (i)           Assignments
      of Mortgage with respect to each Non-MERS Mortgage Loan other than a Cooperative
      Loan shall be recorded; provided, however, that such Assignments need not be
      recorded if, on or prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor delivers, at its
      own
      expense, an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (which must be
      Independent counsel) acceptable to the Trustee, the Rating Agencies and any
      NIMS
      Insurer, to the effect that recording in such states is not required to protect
      the Trustee’s interest in the related Non-MERS Mortgage Loans; provided,
      further, that notwithstanding the delivery of any Opinion of Counsel, the Master
      Servicer shall cause the Servicer to submit each Assignment of Mortgage for
      recording upon the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure
      relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage. Subject to the preceding
      sentence, as soon as practicable after the Closing Date (but in no event more
      than three months thereafter except to the extent delays are caused by the
      applicable recording office), the Master Servicer, at the expense of the
      Depositor and with the cooperation of the applicable Servicer, shall cause
      to be
      properly recorded by such Servicer in each public recording office where the
      related Mortgages are recorded each Assignment of Mortgage referred to in
      subsection (b)(v) above with respect to each Non-MERS Mortgage Loan. With
      respect to each Cooperative Loan, the Master Servicer, at the expense of the
      Depositor and with the cooperation of the applicable Servicer, shall cause
      such
      Servicer to take such actions as are necessary under applicable law in order
      to
      perfect the interest of the Trustee in the related Mortgaged
      Property.

     

    (ii)           With
      respect to each MERS Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer, at the expense of
      the
      Depositor and with the cooperation of the Servicer, shall cause the Servicer
      to
      take such actions as are necessary to cause the Trustee to be clearly identified
      as the owner of each such Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS for purposes
      of
      the system of recording transfers of beneficial ownership of mortgages
      maintained by MERS.

    (d)           In
      instances where a Title Insurance Policy is required to be delivered to the
      Trustee or the applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee under clause
      (b)(vii) above and is not so delivered, the Depositor will provide a copy of
      such Title Insurance Policy to the Trustee, or to the applicable Custodian
      on
      behalf of the Trustee, as promptly as practicable after the execution and
      delivery hereof, but in any case within 180 days of the Closing
      Date.

     

    (e)           For
      Mortgage Loans (if any) that have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date
      and prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above
      documents, herewith delivers to the Trustee, or to the applicable Custodian
      on
      behalf of the Trustee, an Officer’s Certificate which shall include a statement
      to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such prepayment
      that
      are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section
      4.01
      have been so deposited. All original documents that are not delivered to the
      Trustee or the applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee shall be held
      by
      the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer in trust for the benefit of
      the
      Trustee and the Certificateholders.

    (a)           The
      Trustee, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt by it or by
      the
      applicable Custodian on its behalf of the Mortgage Files pertaining to the
      Mortgage Loans listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, subject to review thereof
      by the Trustee, or by the applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, under
      this Section 2.02. The Trustee, or the applicable Custodian on behalf of the
      Trustee, will execute and deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master
      Servicer and any NIMS Insurer on the Closing Date an Initial Certification
      in
      the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B-1 (or in the form annexed to the applicable
      Custodial Agreement as Exhibit B-1, as applicable).

     

    (b)           Within
      45 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the applicable Custodian on
      behalf of the Trustee, will, for the benefit of Holders of the Certificates
      and
      any NIMS Insurer, review each Mortgage File to ascertain that all required
      documents set forth in Section 2.01 have been received and appear on their
      face
      to contain the requisite signatures by or on behalf of the respective parties
      thereto, and shall deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer
      and any NIMS Insurer an Interim Certification in the form annexed hereto as
      Exhibit B-2 (or in the form annexed to the applicable Custodial Agreement as
      Exhibit B-2, as applicable) to the effect that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed
      in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan prepaid in full
      or
      any specifically identified in such certification as not covered by such
      certification), (i) all of the applicable documents specified in Section 2.01(b)
      are in its possession and (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and
      appear to relate to such Mortgage Loan. The Trustee, or the applicable Custodian
      on behalf of the Trustee, shall determine whether such documents are executed
      and endorsed, but shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or
      examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to
      determine that the same are valid, binding, legally effective, properly
      endorsed, genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or
      that they have actually been recorded or are in recordable form or that they
      are
      other than what they purport to be on their face. Neither the Trustee nor the
      applicable Custodian shall have any responsibility for verifying the genuineness
      or the legal effectiveness of or authority for any signatures of or on behalf
      of
      any party or endorser.

    (c)           If
      in the course of the review described in paragraph (b) above the Trustee or
      the
      applicable Custodian discovers any document or documents constituting a part
      of
      a Mortgage File that is missing, does not appear regular on its face (i.e.,
      is
      mutilated, damaged, defaced, torn or otherwise physically altered) or appears
      to
      be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule
      (each, a “Material Defect”), the Trustee, or the applicable Custodian on behalf
      of the Trustee, discovering such Material Defect shall promptly identify the
      Mortgage Loan to which such Material Defect relates in the Interim Certification
      delivered to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and any NIMS
      Insurer. Within 90 days of its receipt of such notice, the Transferor, or,
      if
      the Transferor does not do so, the Depositor shall be required to cure such
      Material Defect (and, in such event, the Depositor shall provide the Trustee
      with an Officer’s Certificate confirming that such cure has been effected). If
      the applicable Transferor or the Depositor, as applicable, does not so cure
      such
      Material Defect, the Transferor, or, if the Transferor does not do so, the
      Depositor, shall, if a loss has been incurred with respect to such Mortgage
      Loan
      that would, if such Mortgage Loan were not purchased from the Trust Fund,
      constitute a Realized Loss, and such loss is attributable to the failure of
      the
      Depositor to cure such Material Defect, repurchase the related Mortgage Loan
      from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price. A loss shall be deemed to be
      attributable to the failure of the Depositor to cure a Material Defect if,
      as
      determined by the Depositor, upon mutual agreement with the Trustee each acting
      in good faith, absent such Material Defect, such loss would not have been
      incurred. Within the two-year period following the Closing Date, the Depositor
      may, in lieu of repurchasing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.02,
      substitute for such Mortgage Loan a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan subject
      to the provisions of Section 2.05. The failure of the Trustee or the applicable
      Custodian to give the notice contemplated herein within 45 days after the
      Closing Date shall not affect or relieve the Depositor of its obligation to

      of this Agreement requiring the repurchase of Mortgage Loans from the Trust

    (d)           Within
      180 days following the Closing Date, the Trustee, or the applicable Custodian,
      shall deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and any NIMS
      Insurer a Final Certification substantially in the form attached as Exhibit
      B-3
      (or in the form annexed to the applicable Custodial Agreement as Exhibit B-3,
      as
      applicable) evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files in its possession
      or control, with any exceptions noted thereto.

     

    (e)           Nothing
      in this Agreement shall be construed to constitute an assumption by the Trust
      Fund, the Trustee, any Custodian or the Certificateholders of any unsatisfied
      duty, claim or other liability on any Mortgage Loan or to any
      Mortgagor.

     

    (f)           Each
      of the parties hereto acknowledges that the applicable Custodian shall perform
      the applicable review of the Mortgage Loans and respective certifications
      thereof as provided in this Section 2.02 and in the applicable Custodial
      Agreement.

              Representations
                and Warranties of the
                Depositor.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee, for the benefit of
      Certificateholders and to the Master Servicer as of the Closing Date or such
      other date as is specified, that:

     

    (i)           the
      Depositor is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
      under the laws governing its creation and existence and has full corporate
      power
      and authority to own its property, to carry on its business as presently
      conducted, to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement,
      and
      to create the trust pursuant hereto;

     

    (ii)           the
      execution and delivery by the Depositor of this Agreement have been duly
      authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Depositor;
      neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation
      of
      the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions hereof,
      will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under,
      any
      of the provisions of any law, governmental rule, regulation, judgment, decree
      or
      order binding on the Depositor or its properties or the certificate of
      incorporation or bylaws of the Depositor;

     

    (iii)           the
      execution, delivery and performance by the Depositor of this Agreement and
      the
      consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require the consent
      or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking
      of
      any other action in respect of, any state, federal or other governmental
      authority or agency, except such as has been obtained, given, effected or taken
      prior to the date hereof;

     

    (iv)           this
      Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Depositor and, assuming
      due authorization, execution and delivery by the Trustee and the Master Servicer
      constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Depositor enforceable against
      it in accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be subject
      to
      (A) applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws and other similar laws affecting
      the enforcement of the rights of creditors generally and (B) general principles
      of equity regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding
      in equity or at law;

     

    (v)           there
      are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the
      Depositor, threatened or likely to be asserted against or affecting the
      Depositor, before or by any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or
      governmental body (A) with respect to any of the transactions contemplated
      by
      this Agreement or (B) with respect to any other matter which in the judgment
      of
      the Depositor will be determined adversely to the Depositor and will if
      determined adversely to the Depositor materially and adversely affect it or
      its
      business, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, or adversely
      affect its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement;
      and

    (vi)           immediately
      prior to the transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee,
      the
      Depositor was the sole owner of record and holder of each Mortgage Loan, and
      the
      Depositor had good and marketable title thereto, and had full right to transfer
      and sell each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee free and clear, subject only to
      (1)
      liens of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable
      and, if the related Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, any lien for
      common charges permitted by statute, (2) covenants, conditions and restrictions,
      rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date
      of
      recording of such Mortgage acceptable to mortgage lending institutions in the
      area in which the related Mortgaged Property is located and specifically
      referred to in the lender’s Title Insurance Policy or attorney’s opinion of
      title and abstract of title delivered to the originator of such Mortgage Loan,
      and (3) such other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which
      do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the benefits
      of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage, of any encumbrance,
      equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security
      interest, and had full right and authority, subject to no interest or
      participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign each
      Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement.

     

    (b)           The
      representations and warranties of the Transferor with respect to the related
      Mortgage Loans in the applicable Transfer Agreement, which have been assigned
      to
      the Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date specified in the applicable
      Transfer Agreement (or underlying agreement, if such Transfer Agreement is
      in
      the form of an assignment of a prior agreement). To the extent that any fact,
      condition or event with respect to a Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of
      both
      (i) a representation or warranty of the applicable Transferor under the
      applicable Transfer Agreement and (ii) a representation or warranty of the
      Seller under the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, the only right or remedy of
      the
      Trustee or any Certificateholder hereunder (other than a breach by the Seller
      of
      the representations made pursuant to Sections 1.04(b)(xii), 1.04(b)(xvii),
      1.04(b)(xviii), 1.04(b)(ix) and 1.04(b)(xx) of the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement)
      shall be their rights to enforce the obligations of the applicable Transferor
      under any applicable representation or warranty made by it. Pursuant to the
      terms of the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, the representations and warranties
      made by the Seller pursuant to Sections 1.04(b)(xii), 1.04(b)(xvii),
      1.04(b)(xviii), 1.04(b)(ix) and 1.04(b)(xx) of the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement
      shall be the direct obligations of the Seller. With the exception of the
      immediately proceeding sentence, the Seller shall not have any other obligation
      or liability with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty made
      by
      it with respect to the Mortgage Loans sold by it if the fact, condition or
      event
      constituting such breach also constitutes a breach of a representation or
      warranty made by the applicable Transferor in the applicable Transfer Agreement,
      without regard to whether such Transferor fulfills its contractual obligations
      in respect of such representation or warranty. The Depositor shall have no
      obligation or liability with respect to any breach of any representation or
      warranty with respect to the Mortgage Loans (except as set forth in Section
      2.03(a)(vi)) under any circumstances.

              Discovery
                of Breach.

            


    

     

    It
      is
      understood and agreed that the representations and warranties (i) set forth
      in
      Section 2.03, (ii) of the Seller set forth in the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement
      and assigned to the Depositor by the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Sale
      Agreement and to the Trustee by the Depositor hereunder and (iii) of the
      Transferor and of the Servicer assigned by the Seller to the Depositor pursuant
      to the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement and assigned to the Trustee by the Depositor
      hereunder, shall each survive delivery of the Mortgage Files and the Assignment
      of Mortgage of each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee and shall continue throughout
      the term of this Agreement. Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, any NIMS
      Insurer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any of such
      representations and warranties that materially and adversely affects the value
      of the related Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give
      prompt written notice to the other parties. Within 90 days of the discovery
      of a
      breach of any representation or warranty given to the Trustee by the Depositor
      or given by a Transferor or the Seller and assigned to the Trustee, the
      Depositor, such Transferor or the Seller, as applicable, shall either (a) cure
      such breach in all material respects, (b) repurchase such Mortgage Loan or
      any
      property acquired in respect thereof from the Trustee at the Purchase Price
      (or,
      with respect to Mortgage Loans as to which there is a breach of a representation
      or warranty set forth in Section 1.04(b)(v) of the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement,
      at the purchase price therefor paid by the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Sale
      Agreement) or (c) within the two-year period following the Closing Date,
      substitute a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage
      Loan.
      In the event of discovery of a breach of any representation and warranty of
      a
      Transferor assigned to the Trustee, the Trustee shall enforce its rights under
      the applicable Transfer Agreement and the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement for
      the
      benefit of Certificateholders. As provided in the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreements,
      if a Transferor substitutes a mortgage loan for a Deleted Mortgage Loan pursuant
      to the Transfer Agreement and such substitute mortgage loan is not a Qualifying
      Substitute Mortgage Loan, then pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Sale
      Agreement the Seller will, in exchange for such substitute mortgage loan, (i)
      pay to the Trust Fund the applicable Purchase Price for the affected Mortgage
      Loan or (ii) within two years of the Closing Date, substitute a Qualifying
      Substitute Mortgage Loan.

              Repurchase,
                Purchase or Substitution of Mortgage
                Loans.

            


    

     

    (a)           With
      respect to any Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Depositor pursuant to this
      Agreement, by the Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, or by
      the
      Transferor pursuant to the applicable Transfer Agreement, the principal portion
      of the funds (including the related PPTL Purchase Price in the case of a First
      Payment Default Mortgage Loan) received by the Master Servicer in respect of
      such repurchase of a Mortgage Loan will be considered a Principal Prepayment
      and
      the Purchase Price or PPTL Purchase Price shall be deposited in the Collection
      Account or a Custodial Account, as applicable. The Trustee (i) upon receipt
      of
      the full amount of the Purchase Price for a Deleted Mortgage Loan, (ii) upon
      receipt of a written certification from the Master Servicer that it has received
      the full amount of the Purchase Price for a Deleted Mortgage Loan and has
      deposited such amount in the Collection Account or (iii) upon receipt of
      notification from the applicable Custodian that it had received the Mortgage
      File for a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan substituted for a Deleted
      Mortgage Loan (and any applicable Substitution Amount), shall release or cause
      to be released and reassign to the Depositor, the Seller or the Transferor,
      as
      applicable, the related Mortgage File for the Deleted Mortgage Loan and shall
      execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case
      without recourse, representation or warranty, as shall be necessary to vest
      in
      such party or its designee or assignee title to any Deleted Mortgage Loan
      released pursuant hereto, free and clear of all security interests, liens and
      other encumbrances created by this Agreement, which instruments shall be
      prepared by the applicable Servicer and the Trustee shall have no further
      responsibility with respect to the Mortgage File relating to such Deleted
      Mortgage Loan. The Seller indemnifies and holds the Trust Fund, the Master
      Servicer, the Trustee, the Depositor and each Certificateholder harmless against
      any and all taxes, claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable
      legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses
      that the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Depositor and any
      Certificateholder may sustain in connection with any actions of the Seller
      relating to a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan other than in compliance with the
      terms of this Section 2.05 and the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, to the extent
      that any such action causes an Adverse REMIC Event.

    (b)           With
      respect to each Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan to be delivered to the
      Trustee (or the applicable Custodian) pursuant to the terms of this Article
      II
      in exchange for a Deleted Mortgage Loan: (i) the Depositor, the Transferor
      or
      the Seller, as applicable, must deliver to the Trustee (or the applicable
      Custodian) the Mortgage File for the Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan
      containing the documents set forth in Section 2.01(b) along with a written
      certification certifying as to the delivery of such Mortgage File and containing
      the granting language set forth in Section 2.01(a); and (ii) the Depositor
      will
      be deemed to have made, with respect to such Qualifying Substitute Mortgage
      Loan, each of the representations and warranties made by it with respect to
      the
      related Deleted Mortgage Loan. As soon as practicable after the delivery of
      any
      Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan hereunder, the Master Servicer, at the
      expense of the Depositor and with the cooperation of the applicable Servicer,
      shall (i) with respect to a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a
      Non-MERS Mortgage Loan, cause the Assignment of Mortgage to be recorded by
      the
      applicable Servicer if required pursuant to Section 2.01(c), or (ii) with
      respect to a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan,
      cause to be taken such actions as are necessary to cause the Trustee to be
      clearly identified as the owner of each such Mortgage Loan on the records of
      MERS if required pursuant to Section 2.01(c).

     

    (c)           Notwithstanding
      any other provision of this Agreement, the right to substitute Mortgage Loans
      pursuant to this Article II shall be subject to the additional limitations
      that
      no substitution of a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan for a Deleted Mortgage
      Loan shall be made unless the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer have received an
      Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make the
      substitution) that, under current law, such substitution will not result in
      an
      Adverse REMIC Event.

                Clause.

            


    

     

    (a)           It
      is intended that the conveyance of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in
      and to property constituting the Trust Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall
      constitute, and shall be construed as, a sale of such property and not a grant
      of a security interest to secure a loan. However, if such conveyance is deemed
      to be in respect of a loan, it is intended that: (1) the rights and obligations
      of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement;
      (2)
      the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of
      the
      Certificates and the Certificate Insurer a first priority security interest
      to
      secure repayment of an obligation in an amount equal to the aggregate Class
      Principal Amount of the Certificates in all of the Depositor’s right, title and
      interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, the Trust
      Fund and the Supplemental Interest Trust and all proceeds of any and all
      property constituting the Trust Fund and the Supplemental Interest Trust to
      secure payment of the Certificates (such security interest being, to the extent
      of the assets that constitute the Supplemental Interest Trust, pari passu with
      the security interest as provided in clause (4) below; (3) this Agreement shall
      constitute a security agreement under applicable law; and (4) the Swap
      Counterparty shall be deemed, during the term of such agreement and while such
      agreement is the property of the Trustee, to have a security interest in all
      of
      the assets that constitute the Supplemental Interest Trust, but only to the
      extent of such Swap Counterparty’s right to payment under the Swap Agreement
      (such security interest being pari passu with the security interest as provided
      in clause (2) above). If such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan
      and the trust created by this Agreement terminates prior to the satisfaction
      of
      the claims of any Person holding any Certificate, the security interest created
      hereby shall continue in full force and effect and the Trustee shall be deemed
      to be the collateral agent for the benefit of such Person, and all proceeds
      shall be distributed as herein provided.

    (b)           The
      Depositor shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such
      reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were
      deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and the other
      property described above, such security interest would be deemed to be a
      perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and shall
      be
      maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement. The Depositor shall,
      at its own expense, make all initial filings on or about the Closing Date and
      shall forward a copy of such filing or filings to the Trustee. Without limiting
      the generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and forward for
      filing, or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, at the expense of the
      Depositor, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original
      filings necessary under the relevant UCC to perfect the Trustee’s security
      interest in or lien on the Mortgage Loans, including without limitation (x)
      continuation statements, and (y) such other statements as may be occasioned
      by
      (1) any change of name of the Seller, the Depositor or the Trustee, (2) any
      change of location of the jurisdiction of organization of the Seller or the
      Depositor, (3) any transfer of any interest of the Seller or the Depositor
      in
      any Mortgage Loan or (4) any change under the relevant UCC or other applicable
      laws. Neither the Seller nor the Depositor shall organize under the law of
      any
      jurisdiction other than the State under which each is organized as of the
      Closing Date (whether changing its jurisdiction of organization or organizing
      under an additional jurisdiction) without giving 30 days prior written notice
      of
      such action to its immediate and intermediate transferee, including the Trustee.
      Before effecting such change, the Seller or the Depositor proposing to change
      its jurisdiction of organization shall prepare and file in the appropriate
      filing office any financing statements or other statements necessary to continue
      the perfection of the interests of its immediate and mediate transferees,
      including the Trustee, in the Mortgage Loans. In connection with the
      transactions contemplated by this Agreement, the Seller and the Depositor
      authorizes its immediate or mediate transferee to file in any filing office
      any
      initial financing statements, any amendments to financing statements, any
      continuation statements, or any other statements or filings described in this
      paragraph (b).

      governed by Article 8 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code. The Book-Entry

      Certificate and maintained in definitive, fully registered form in a minimum
      denomination equal to 100% of the Percentage Interest of such Class. The
      Certificates may be issued in the form of typewritten certificates.

     

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

     

    
      (c)    The
        Class
        M9 Certificates offered and sold in reliance on the exemption from registration
        under Rule 144A under the Act 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 added
        to the
        forms of such Certificates (each, a “Restricted Global Security”), which shall
        be deposited on behalf of the subscribers for such Certificates represented
        thereby with the Trustee, as custodian for The Depository Trust Company (“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
        Restricted 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.

      


      (d)    The
        Class
        M9 Certificates 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 hereto 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.

      


      (e)    The
        Class
        M9 Certificates sold to an “accredited investor” under Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3)
        or (7) under the Act shall be issued initially in the form of one or more
        Definitive Certificates.

              Registration.

            


    

     

    The
      Trustee is hereby appointed, and hereby accepts its appointment as, Certificate
      Registrar in respect of the Certificates and shall maintain books for the
      registration and for the transfer of Certificates (the “Certificate Register”).
      The Trustee may appoint a bank or trust company to act as Certificate Registrar.
      A registration book shall be maintained for the Certificates collectively.
      The
      Certificate Registrar may resign or be discharged or removed and a new successor
      may be appointed in accordance with the procedures and requirements set forth
      in
      Sections 6.06 and 6.07 hereof with respect to the resignation, discharge or
      removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor trustee. The
      Certificate Registrar may appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the
      Holders and the Master Servicer, any bank or trust company to act as co
      registrar under such conditions as the Certificate Registrar may prescribe;
      provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall not be relieved of
      any
      of its duties or responsibilities hereunder by reason of such
      appointment.

                3.03.

            	
              Transfer
                and Exchange of Certificates.

            


    

     

    (a)           A
      Certificate (other than a Book-Entry Certificate, which shall be subject to
      Section 3.09 hereof) may be transferred by the Holder thereof only upon
      presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate
      Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by such
      Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as shall be satisfactory
      to
      the Certificate Registrar. Upon the transfer of any Certificate in accordance
      with the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall execute, and the Trustee or
      any
      Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the transferee, one
      or
      more new Certificates of the same Class and evidencing, in the aggregate, the
      same aggregate Certificate Principal Amount or Percentage Interest as the
      Certificate being transferred. No service charge shall be made to a
      Certificateholder for any registration of transfer of Certificates, but the
      Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any
      tax
      or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration
      of transfer of Certificates.

     

    (b)           A
      Certificate may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for any number of new
      Certificates of the same Class, in authorized denominations, representing in
      the
      aggregate the same Certificate Principal Amount or Percentage Interest as the
      Certificate surrendered, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged
      at
      the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by a
      written instrument of transfer duly executed by such Holder or his duly
      authorized attorney in such form as is satisfactory to the Certificate
      Registrar. Certificates delivered upon any such exchange will evidence the
      same
      obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the
      Certificates surrendered. No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder
      for any exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require
      payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may
      be
      imposed in connection with any exchange of Certificates. Whenever any
      Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, and
      the
      Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, date and deliver the
      Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to
      receive.

     

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

    
      
        
        

      

      
        77

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    The
      following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and registration
      of transfer of a Restricted Certificate to a transferee that takes delivery
      in
      the form of a Definitive Certificate:

     

    (i)           The
      Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate
      if
      the requested transfer is (x) to the Depositor or the Placement Agent, an
      affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the Act) of the Depositor or the
      Placement Agent or (y) being made to a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”)
      as defined in Rule 144A under the Act by a transferor that has provided the
      Trustee with a certificate in the form of Exhibit F hereto; and

     

    (ii)           The
      Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate
      if
      the requested transfer is being made to an “accredited investor” under Rule
      501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the
      “Act”), or to any Person all of the equity owners in which are such accredited
      investors, by a transferor who furnishes to the Trustee a letter of the
      transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto.

     

    (d)           No
      Transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate shall be made unless the
      Trustee shall have received a representation letter from the transferee of
      such
      Certificate, substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit H, to the effect
      that either (i) such transferee is not, and is not acting for, on behalf of
      or
      with any assets of, an employee benefit plan or other arrangement subject to
      Title I of ERISA or plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or (ii) until
      the
      termination of the Swap Agreement, the acquisition and holding of the
      ERISA-Restricted Swap Certificate are eligible for exemptive relief under
      Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14, PTCE 90-1, PTCE 91-38,
      PTCE 95-60 or PTCE 96-23. 

     

               No
      Transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate or a Class R Certificate will be
      registered unless the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor
      receive (A) a representation as set forth in Exhibit D-1 for Class R
      Certificates or Exhibit H for ERISA-Restricted Certificates to the effect that
      such transferee is not an employee benefit plan or other arrangement subject
      to
      Title I of ERISA, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject
      to any provisions under any federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or
      regulations that are substantively similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA
      or the Code (“Similar Law”) (collectively, a “Plan”), and is not directly or
      indirectly acquiring the Class R Certificate for, on behalf of, or with any
      assets of any such Plan, or (B) solely in the case of an ERISA-Restricted
      Certificate (I) a representation as set forth in Exhibit H for ERISA-Restricted
      Certificates that, if the Certificate has been the subject of an
      ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, such transferee is an insurance company that
      is
      acquiring the Certificate with assets contained in an “insurance company general
      account,” as defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption
      (“PTCE”) 95-60, and the acquisition and holding of the Certificate are covered
      and exempt under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 (solely in the case of the
      Class X Certificate, after the termination of the Swap Agreement), or (II)
      solely in the case of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Definitive
      Certificate, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee, the Certificate
      Registrar and the Depositor, and upon which the Trustee, the Certificate
      Registrar and the Depositor shall be entitled to rely, to the effect that the
      acquisition and holding of such Certificate will not constitute or result in
      a
      nonexempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code, or a violation of
      Similar Law, and will not subject the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the
      Master Servicer, any Servicer or the Depositor to any obligation in addition
      to
      those expressly undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall
      not
      be an expense of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer,
      any Servicer or the Depositor.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        78

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    Except
      in
      the case of Definitive Certificates, the representations set forth in the two
      preceding paragraphs, other than clause (B)(II) in the immediately preceding
      paragraph, shall be deemed to have been made to the Trustee, the Certificate
      Registrar and the Depositor by the transferee’s acceptance of an ERISA
      Restricted Swap Certificate, an ERISA Restricted Certificate or a Class R
      Certificate (or the acceptance by a Certificate Owner of the beneficial interest
      in any Class of ERISA Restricted Swap Certificate, ERISA Restricted Certificate
      or Class R Certificate). The Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the
      Depositor shall not have any obligation to monitor transfers of Book-Entry
      Certificates or Restricted Global Securities that are ERISA Restricted Swap
      Certificates, ERISA Restricted Certificates or Class R Certificates or any
      liability for transfers of such Certificates in violation of the transfer
      restrictions.

     

    Notwithstanding
      any other provision herein to the contrary, any purported transfer of an ERISA
      Restricted Swap Certificate, ERISA Restricted Certificate or Class R Certificate
      to or on behalf of a Plan without the delivery to the Trustee, the Certificate
      Registrar and the Depositor of a representation or an Opinion of Counsel
      satisfactory to the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor as
      described above shall be void and of no effect and the next preceding permitted
      beneficial owner will be treated as the beneficial owner of that Certificate,
      retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial owner. The
      Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor shall not have any
      liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of any ERISA Restricted
      Swap Certificate, ERISA Restricted Certificate or Class R Certificate that
      is in
      fact not permitted by this Section 3.03(d) and the Trustee, the Certificate
      Registrar and the Depositor shall not have any liability 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 Certificate Registrar in accordance with the
      foregoing requirements. The Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor
      shall be entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any ERISA
      Restricted Swap Certificate, ERISA Restricted Certificate or Class R Certificate
      that was in fact a Plan and that held such Certificate in violation of this
      Section 3.03(d) all payments made on such ERISA Restricted Swap Certificate,
      ERISA Restricted Certificate or Class R Certificate at and after the time it
      commenced such holding. Any such payments so recovered shall be paid and
      delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that is not a
      Plan.

    (e)           As
      a condition of the registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate,
      the
      Certificate Registrar may require the certified taxpayer identification number
      of the owner of the Certificate and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover
      any
      tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith; provided,
      however, that the Certificate Registrar shall have no obligation to require
      such
      payment or to determine whether or not any such tax or charge may be applicable.
      No service charge shall be made to the Certificateholder for any registration,
      transfer or exchange of a Certificate.

     

    (f)           Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained herein, no Residual Certificate may be owned,
      pledged or transferred, directly or indirectly, by or to (i) a Disqualified
      Organization or (ii) an individual, corporation or partnership or other person
      unless, in the case of clause (ii), such person is (A) not a Non-U.S. Person
      or
      (B) is a Non-U.S. Person that holds a Residual Certificate in connection with
      the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and has furnished
      the transferor and the Trustee with an effective Internal Revenue Service Form
      W-8ECI or successor form at the time and in the manner required by the Code
      (any
      such person who is not covered by clause (A) or (B) above is referred to herein
      as a “Non-permitted Foreign Holder”).

     

    Prior
      to
      and as a condition of the registration of any transfer, sale or other
      disposition of a Residual Certificate, the proposed transferee shall deliver
      to
      the Trustee an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit
      D-1 representing and warranting, among other things, that such transferee is
      neither a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee acting on behalf of
      a
      Disqualified Organization, nor a Non-permitted Foreign Holder (any such
      transferee, a “Permitted Transferee”), and the proposed transferor shall deliver
      to the Trustee an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit
      D-2. In addition, the Trustee may (but shall have no obligation to) require,
      prior to and as a condition of any such transfer, the delivery by the proposed
      transferee of an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Depositor, the Master
      Servicer, any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee satisfactory in form and substance
      to
      the Depositor, that such proposed transferee or, if the proposed transferee
      is
      an agent or nominee, the proposed beneficial owner, is not a Disqualified
      Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder.
      Notwithstanding the registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer,
      sale, or other disposition of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualified
      Organization, an agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder,
      such
      registration shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and
      such Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted
      Foreign Holder shall not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose
      hereunder, including, but not limited to, the receipt of distributions on such
      Residual Certificate. The Trustee shall not be under any liability to any person
      for any registration or transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualified
      Organization, agent or nominee thereof or Non-permitted Foreign Holder or for
      the maturity of any payments due on such Residual Certificate to the Holder
      thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the
      provisions of the Agreement, so long as the transfer was effected in accordance
      with this Section 3.03(f), unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall
      have actual knowledge at the time of such transfer or the time of such payment
      or other action that the transferee is a Disqualified Organization, or an agent
      or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder. The Trustee shall be
      entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of a Residual
      Certificate that was a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof,
      or
      Non-permitted Foreign Holder at the time it became a Holder or any subsequent
      time it became a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or
      Non-permitted Foreign Holder, all payments made on such Residual Certificate
      at
      and after either such times (and all costs and expenses, including but not
      limited to attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection therewith). Any payment (not
      including any such costs and expenses) so recovered by the Trustee shall be
      paid
      and delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Residual
      Certificate.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        80

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    If
      any
      purported transferee shall become a registered Holder of a Residual Certificate
      in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.03(f), then upon receipt of
      written notice to the Trustee that the registration of transfer of such Residual
      Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section 3.03(f), the last
      preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof
      retroactive to the date of such registration of transfer of such Residual
      Certificate. The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any
      registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted
      by this Section 3.03(f), for making any payment due on such Certificate to
      the
      registered Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such
      Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was
      registered upon receipt of the affidavit described in the preceding paragraph
      of
      this Section 3.03(f).

     

    (g)           Each
      Holder or Certificate Owner of a Restricted Certificate, ERISA-Restricted
      Certificate or Residual Certificate, or an interest therein, by such Holder’s or
      Owner’s acceptance thereof, shall be deemed for all purposes to have consented
      to the provisions of this section.

     

    (h)           Notwithstanding
      any provision to the contrary herein, so long as a Global Security representing
      any Class M9 Certificate remains outstanding and is held by or on behalf of
      DTC,
      transfers of a Global Security representing any such Certificates, in whole
      or
      in part, shall only be made in accordance with Section 3.01 and this Section
      3.03(h).

     

    (i)           Subject
      to clauses (ii) and (iii) of this Section 3.03(h), transfers of a Global
      Security representing any Class M9 Certificate shall be limited to transfers
      of
      such Global Security, in whole or in part, to nominees of DTC or to a successor
      of DTC or such successor’s nominee.

     

    (ii)           Restricted
      Global Security to Regulation S Global Security. If a holder of a beneficial
      interest in a Restricted Global Security deposited with or on behalf of DTC
      wishes at any time to exchange its interest in such Restricted Global Security
      for an interest in a Regulation S Global Security, or to transfer its interest
      in such Restricted Global Security to a Person who wishes to take delivery
      thereof in the form of an interest in a Regulation S Global Security, such
      holder, provided such holder is not a U.S. person, may, subject to the rules
      and
      procedures of DTC, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an
      equivalent beneficial interest in the Regulation S Global Security. Upon receipt
      by the Trustee, as Certificate Registrar, of (I) instructions from DTC directing
      the Trustee, as Certificate Registrar, to be credited a beneficial interest
      in a
      Regulation S Global Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interest
      in
      such Restricted Global Security to be exchanged but not less than the minimum
      denomination applicable to such holder’s Certificates held through a Regulation
      S Global Security, (II) a written order given in accordance with DTC’s
      procedures containing information regarding the participant account of DTC
      and,
      in the case of a transfer pursuant to and in accordance with Regulation S,
      the
      Euroclear or Clearstream account to be credited with such increase and (III)
      a
      certificate in the form of Exhibit U-1 hereto given by the holder of such
      beneficial interest stating that the exchange or transfer of such interest
      has
      been made in compliance with the transfer restrictions applicable to the Global
      Securities, including that the holder is not a U.S. person, and pursuant to
      and
      in accordance with Regulation S, the Trustee, as Certificate Registrar, shall
      reduce the principal amount of the Restricted Global Security and increase
      the
      principal amount of the Regulation S Global Security by the aggregate principal
      amount of the beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security to be
      exchanged, and shall instruct Euroclear or Clearstream, as applicable,
      concurrently with such reduction, to credit or cause to be credited to the
      account of the Person specified in such instructions a beneficial interest
      in
      the Regulation S Global Security equal to the reduction in the principal amount
      of the Restricted Global Security.

    (iii)           Regulation
      S Global Security to Restricted Global Security. If a holder of a beneficial
      interest in a Regulation S Global Security deposited with or on behalf of DTC
      wishes at any time to transfer its interest in such Regulation S Global Security
      to a Person who wishes to take delivery thereof in the form of an interest
      in a
      Restricted Global Security, such holder may, subject to the rules and procedures
      of DTC, exchange or cause the exchange of such interest for an equivalent
      beneficial interest in a Restricted Global Security. Upon receipt by the
      Trustee, as Certificate Registrar, of (I) instructions from DTC directing the
      Trustee, as Certificate Registrar, to cause to be credited a beneficial interest
      in a Restricted Global Security in an amount equal to the beneficial interest
      in
      such Regulation S Global Security to be exchanged but not less than the minimum
      denomination applicable to such holder’s Certificates held through a Restricted
      Global Security, to be exchanged, such instructions to contain information
      regarding the participant account with DTC to be credited with such increase,
      and (II) a certificate in the form of Exhibit U-2 hereto given by the holder
      of
      such beneficial interest and stating, among other things, that the Person
      transferring such interest in such Regulation S Global Security reasonably
      believes that the Person acquiring such interest in a Restricted Global Security
      is a QIB, is obtaining such beneficial interest in a transaction meeting the
      requirements of Rule 144A under the Act and in accordance with any applicable
      securities laws of any State of the United States or any other jurisdiction,
      then the Trustee, as Certificate Registrar, will reduce the principal amount
      of
      the Regulation S Global Security and increase the principal amount of the
      Restricted Global Security by the aggregate principal amount of the beneficial
      interest in the Regulation S Global Security to be transferred and the Trustee,
      as Certificate Registrar, shall instruct DTC, concurrently with such reduction,
      to credit or cause to be credited to the account of the Person specified in
      such
      instructions a beneficial interest in the Restricted Global Security equal
      to
      the reduction in the principal amount of the Regulation S Global
      Security.

     

    (iv)           Other
      Exchanges. In the event that a Global Security is exchanged for Certificates
      in
      definitive registered form without interest coupons, pursuant to Section 3.09(c)
      hereof, such Certificates may be exchanged for one another only in accordance
      with such procedures as are substantially consistent with the provisions above
      (including certification requirements intended to insure that such transfers
      comply with Rule 144A, comply with Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) or are to
      non-U.S. persons in compliance with Regulation S under the Act, as the case
      may
      be), and as may be from time to time adopted by the Trustee.

    (v)           Restrictions
      on U.S. Transfers. Transfers of interests in the Regulation S Global Security
      to
      U.S. persons (as defined in Regulation S) shall be limited to transfers made
      pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.03(h)(iii).

                of Certificates.

            


    

     

    Any
      Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be
      cancelled and retained in accordance with normal retention policies with respect

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

      to the provisions of Section 3.09 with respect to Book Entry Certificates,
      the
      Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer, the Certificate
      Registrar and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any
      Certificate is registered upon the books of the Certificate Registrar as the
      owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant
      to
      Sections 5.01 and 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the
      Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer, the Certificate
      Registrar nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the
      contrary.

    (a)           Pending
      the preparation of Definitive Certificates, upon the order of the Depositor,
      the
      Trustee shall execute and shall authenticate and deliver temporary Certificates
      that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced,
      in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive
      Certificates in lieu of which they are issued and with such variations as the
      authorized officers executing such Certificates may determine, as evidenced
      by
      their execution of such Certificates.

    (b)           If
      temporary Certificates are issued, the Depositor will cause Definitive
      Certificates to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation
      of
      Definitive Certificates, the temporary Certificates shall be exchangeable for
      Definitive Certificates upon surrender of the temporary Certificates at the
      office or agency of the Trustee without charge to the Holder. Upon surrender
      for
      cancellation of any one or more temporary Certificates, the Trustee shall
      execute and authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like aggregate
      Certificate Principal Amount of Definitive Certificates of the same Class in
      the
      authorized denominations. Until so exchanged, the temporary Certificates shall
      in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as
      Definitive Certificates of the same Class.

              Appointment
                of Paying Agent.

            


    

     

    The
      Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent (which may be the Trustee), acceptable to
      the
      NIMS Insurer, for the purpose of making distributions to Certificateholders
      hereunder. The Trustee shall cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver
      to
      the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the
      Trustee that such Paying Agent will hold all sums held by it for the payment
      to
      Certificateholders in an Eligible Account in trust for the benefit of the
      Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to the
      Certificateholders. All funds remitted by the Trustee to any such Paying Agent
      for the purpose of making distributions shall be paid to Certificateholders
      on
      each Distribution Date and any amounts not so paid shall be returned on such
      Distribution Date to the Trustee. If the Paying Agent is not the Trustee, the
      Trustee shall cause to be remitted to the Paying Agent on or before the Business
      Day prior to each Distribution Date, by wire transfer in immediately available
      funds, the funds to be distributed on such Distribution Date. 

     

    Any
      Paying Agent shall be either a bank or trust company or otherwise authorized
      under law to exercise corporate trust powers. A Paying Agent shall comply with
      its reporting obligations under Regulation AB with respect to the Trust Fund
      in
      form and substance similar to those of the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.21,
      and
      the related assessment of compliance shall cover, at a minimum, the matters
      indicated as obligations with respect to the Paying Agent on Exhibit R attached
      hereto. In addition, the Paying Agent (other than the Trustee) shall notify
      the
      Sponsor, the Master Servicer and the Depositor within five (5) calendar days
      of
      knowledge thereof (i) of any legal proceedings pending against the Paying Agent
      of the type described in Item 1117 (§ 229.1117) of Regulation AB, (ii) any
      merger, consolidation or sale of substantially all of the assets of the Paying
      Agent and (iii) if the Paying Agent shall become (but only to the extent not
      previously disclosed) at any time an Affiliate of any of the parties listed
      on
      Exhibit S hereto or any of their Affiliates.

                Entry Certificates.

            


    

     

    (a)           Each
      Class of Book Entry Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in
      the
      form of one or more typewritten Certificates representing the Book Entry
      Certificates. The Book Entry Certificates shall initially be registered on
      the
      Certificate Register in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency, and
      no
      Certificate Owner will receive a Definitive Certificate representing such
      Certificate Owner’s interest in the Book Entry Certificates, except as provided
      in Section 3.09(c). Unless Definitive Certificates have been issued to
      Certificate Owners of Book Entry Certificates pursuant to Section
      3.09(c):

    (i)           the
      provisions of this Section 3.09 shall be in full force and effect;

     

    (ii)           the
      Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent, the Registrar and the Trustee
      may deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes (including the making of
      distributions on the Book Entry Certificates) as the authorized representatives
      of the Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency shall be responsible for
      crediting the amount of such distributions to the accounts of such Persons
      entitled thereto, in accordance with the Clearing Agency’s normal
      procedures;

     

    (iii)           to
      the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.09 conflict with any other
      provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.09 shall control;
      and

     

    (iv)           the
      rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency
      and the Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those established
      by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency
      and/or the Clearing Agency Participants. Unless and until Definitive
      Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the initial Clearing Agency
      will make book entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and
      receive and transmit distributions of principal of and interest on the Book
      Entry Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants.

     

    (b)           Whenever
      notice or other communication to the Certificateholders is required under this
      Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued
      to
      Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the Trustee shall give all
      such
      notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Book
      Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency.

     

    (c)           If
      (i) (A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the Clearing Agency
      is
      no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities with
      respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, and (B) the Trustee or the Depositor
      is
      unable to locate a qualified successor, or (ii) after the occurrence of an
      Event
      of Default, Certificate Owners representing beneficial interests aggregating
      not
      less than 50% of the Class Principal Amount of a Class of Book Entry
      Certificates identified as such to the Trustee by an Officer’s Certificate from
      the Clearing Agency advise the Trustee and the Clearing Agency through the
      Clearing Agency Participants in writing that the continuation of a book entry
      system through the Clearing Agency is no longer in the best interests of the
      Certificate Owners of a Class of Book Entry Certificates, the Trustee shall
      notify or cause the Certificate Registrar to notify the Clearing Agency to
      effect notification to all Certificate Owners, through the Clearing Agency,
      of
      the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive
      Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the
      Trustee of the Book Entry Certificates by the Clearing Agency, accompanied
      by
      registration instructions from the Clearing Agency for registration, the Trustee
      shall issue the Definitive Certificates. Neither the Depositor nor the Trustee
      shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may
      conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.
      Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates all references herein to
      obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Clearing Agency shall be
      deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to the extent
      applicable, with respect to such Definitive Certificates and the Trustee shall
      recognize the holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders
      hereunder.

    (a)           On
      the Closing Date, the Master Servicer shall open and shall thereafter maintain
      a
      segregated account held in trust (the “Collection Account”), entitled
“Collection Account, Aurora Loan Services LLC, as Master Servicer, in trust
      for
      the benefit of the Holders of Lehman XS Trust Mortgage Pass-Through
      Certificates, Series 2006-12N” or its nominee. The Collection Account shall
      relate solely to the Certificates issued by the Trust Fund hereunder, and funds
      in such Collection Account shall not be commingled with any other
      monies.

     

    (b)           The
      Collection Account shall be an Eligible Account. If an existing Collection
      Account ceases to be an Eligible Account, the Master Servicer shall establish

      new Collection Account that is an Eligible Account within 15 days and transfer
      all funds and investment property on deposit in such existing Collection Account
      into such new Collection Account.

      notice of the name and address of the depository institution at which the
      Collection Account is maintained and the account number of such Collection
      Account. The Master Servicer shall take such actions as are necessary to cause
      the depository institution holding the Collection Account to hold such account
      in the name of the Master Servicer under this Agreement. No later than 2:00
      p.m.
      New York City time on each Deposit Date, the entire amount on deposit in the
      Collection Account (subject to permitted withdrawals set forth in Section 4.02),
      other than amounts not included in the Total Distribution Amount for such
      Distribution Date, shall be remitted to the Trustee for deposit into the
      Certificate Account by wire transfer in immediately available funds. The Master
      Servicer, at its option (but with prior notice to the Trustee), may choose
      to
      make daily remittances from the Collection Account to the Trustee for deposit
      into the Certificate Account.

     

    (d)           The
      Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited into the Collection

    (ii)           all
      payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans, in all cases, net of
      the
      Servicing Fee (or, with respect to the GMACM Transferred Mortgage Loans, the
      General Servicing Fee) with respect to each such Mortgage Loan, but only to
      the
      extent of the amount permitted to be withdrawn or withheld from the Collection
      Account in accordance with Sections 5.04 and 9.21;

      or withheld from the Collection Account in accordance with Sections 5.04 and
      9.21) and (y) any amounts reimbursable to the applicable Servicer with respect

      and at the written direction of the Master Servicer, which shall mature not
      later than one Business Day prior to the Deposit Date (except that if such
      Eligible Investment is an obligation of the Trustee, then such Eligible
      Investment shall mature not later than such applicable Deposit Date) and any
      such Eligible Investment shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity.
      All such Eligible Investments shall be made in the name of the Master Servicer
      in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders of Lehman XS Trust

      respect of any such investments shall be deposited in such Collection Account
      by
      the Master Servicer out of its own funds, without any right of reimbursement
      therefor, immediately as realized. The foregoing requirements for deposit in
      the
      Collection Account are exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without
      limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments of interest on funds in
      the
      Collection Account and payments in the nature of late payment charges,
      assumption fees, prepayment penalties with respect to mortgages for which the
      Seller does not own the servicing rights, and other incidental fees and charges

      deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection Account and may be retained
      by the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer as additional servicing
      compensation. If the Master Servicer deposits in the Collection Account any
      amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such
      amount from such Collection Account.

                of Funds in the Collection
                Account.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Master Servicer may, from time to time, make, or cause to be made, withdrawals
      from the Collection Account for the following purposes:

     

    (i)           to
      reimburse itself or any Servicer for Advances or Servicing Advances made by
      it
      or by such Servicer pursuant to Section 5.04 or the applicable Servicing
      Agreement; such right to reimbursement pursuant to this sub-clause (i) is
      limited to amounts received on or in respect of a particular Mortgage Loan
      (including, for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds and amounts representing
      Insurance Proceeds with respect to the property subject to the related Mortgage)
      which represent late recoveries (net of the applicable Servicing Fee or, with
      respect to the GMACM Transferred Mortgage Loans, the General Servicing Fee)
      of
      payments of principal or interest respecting which any such Advance was made,
      it
      being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement, that the Master
      Servicer’s or Servicer’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the
      Certificateholders;

     

    (ii)           to
      reimburse itself or any Servicer, following a final liquidation of a Mortgage
      Loan (except as otherwise provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) for
      any previously unreimbursed Advances or Servicing Advances made by it or by
      such
      Servicer (A) that it or such Servicer determines in good faith will not be
      recoverable from amounts representing late recoveries of payments of principal
      or interest respecting the particular Mortgage Loan as to which such Advance
      or
      Servicing Advance was made or from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds
      with respect to such Mortgage Loan and/or (B) to the extent that such
      unreimbursed Advances or Servicing Advances exceed the related Liquidation
      Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, it being understood, in the case of each such
      reimbursement, that such Master Servicer’s or Servicer’s right thereto shall be
      prior to the rights of the Certificateholders;

     

    (iii)           to
      reimburse itself or any Servicer from Liquidation Proceeds for Liquidation
      Expenses and for amounts expended by it pursuant to Sections 9.20 and 9.22(c)
      or
      the applicable Servicing Agreement in good faith in connection with the
      restoration of damaged property and, to the extent that Liquidation Proceeds
      after such reimbursement exceed the unpaid principal balance of the related
      Mortgage Loan, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the
      applicable Mortgage Rate less the applicable Servicing Fee Rate (or, with
      respect to the GMACM Transferred Mortgage Loans, the General Servicing Fee
      Rate), for such Mortgage Loan to the Due Date next succeeding the date of its
      receipt of such Liquidation Proceeds, to pay to itself out of such excess the
      amount of any unpaid assumption fees, late payment charges or other Mortgagor
      charges on the related Mortgage Loan and to retain any excess remaining
      thereafter as additional servicing compensation, it being understood, in the
      case of any such reimbursement or payment, that such Master Servicer’s or
      Servicer’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the
      Certificateholders;

    
      
        
        

      

      
        88

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (iv)           [Reserved];

     

    (v)           to
      reimburse itself or any Servicer for expenses incurred by and recoverable by
      or
      reimbursable to it or such Servicer pursuant to Sections 9.04, 9.05, 9.06,
      9.07(a), 9.16, 9.30 or 11.15 or pursuant to the applicable Servicing
      Agreement;

     

    (vi)           to
      pay to the Depositor, the Seller or the Transferor, as applicable, with respect
      to each Mortgage Loan or REO Property acquired in respect thereof that has
      been
      purchased pursuant to this Agreement, all amounts received thereon and not
      distributed on the date on which the related repurchase was effected, and to
      pay
      to the applicable Person any Advances and Servicing Advances to the extent
      specified in the definition of Purchase Price (or PPTL Purchase Price (in the
      case of a First Payment Default Loan));

     

    (vii)           subject
      to Section 5.05, to pay to itself income earned on the investment of funds
      deposited in the Collection Account;

     

    (viii)           to
      make payments to the Trustee on each Deposit Date for deposit into the
      Certificate Account in the amount provided in Section 4.04;

     

    (ix)           to
      make payment to itself, the Trustee and others pursuant to any other provision
      of this Agreement and to reimburse any Custodian pursuant to the applicable
      Custodial Agreement, but only to the extent that the items reimbursed constitute
      “unanticipated expenses” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
      1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii);

     

    (x)           to
      withdraw funds deposited in error in the Collection Account;

     

    (xi)           to
      clear and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to Section
      7.02;

     

    (xii)           to
      reimburse the Trustee and a successor Master Servicer (solely in its capacity
      as
      successor Master Servicer), for any fee or advance occasioned by a termination
      of the Master Servicer, and the assumption of such duties by the Trustee or
      a
      successor Master Servicer appointed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14,
      in
      each case to the extent not reimbursed by the terminated Master Servicer, it
      being understood, in the case of any such reimbursement or payment, that the
      right of the Master Servicer or the Trustee thereto shall be prior to the rights
      of the Certificateholders; and

    
      
        
        

      

      
        89

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (xiii)           to
      reimburse any Servicer for such amounts as are due thereto under the applicable
      Servicing Agreement and have not been retained by or paid to such Servicer,
      to
      the extent provided in such Servicing Agreement.

     

    If
      provided in its applicable Servicing Agreement, a Servicer shall be entitled
      to
      retain as additional servicing compensation any Prepayment Interest Excess
      (to
      the extent not offset by Prepayment Interest Shortfalls).

     

    In
      the
      event that the Master Servicer fails on any Deposit Date to remit to the Trustee
      any amounts required to be so remitted to the Trustee pursuant to sub-clause
      (viii) by such date, the Master Servicer shall pay the Trustee, for the account
      of the Trustee, interest calculated at the “prime rate” (as published in the
“Money Rates” section of The Wall Street Journal) on such amounts not timely
      remitted for the period from and including that Deposit Date to but not
      including the related Distribution Date. The Master Servicer shall only be
      required to pay the Trustee interest for the actual number of days such amounts
      are not timely remitted (e.g., one day’s interest, if such amounts are remitted
      one day after the Deposit Date).

     

    In
      connection with withdrawals pursuant to sub-clauses (i), (ii), (iii), and (vi)
      above, the Master Servicer’s, any Servicer’s or such other Person’s entitlement
      thereto is limited to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage
      Loan. The Master Servicer shall therefore keep and maintain a separate
      accounting for each Mortgage Loan it master services for the purpose of
      justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account it maintains pursuant
      to
      such sub-clause (i), (ii), (iii) and (vi).

     

    Any
      withdrawals described in this section shall be allocated and limited to
      collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Pool and shall be
      accounted for in such manner.

     

    (b)           The
      Trustee shall afford the NIMS Insurer upon reasonable notice, during normal
      business hours, access to all records maintained by the Trustee in respect
      of
      its duties hereunder and access to officers of the Trustee responsible for
      performing such duties. The Trustee shall cooperate fully with the NIMS Insurer
      and shall make available to the NIMS Insurer for review and copying at the
      expense of the NIMS Insurer, such books, documents or records as may be
      requested with respect to the Trustee’s duties hereunder. The NIMS Insurer shall
      not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by
      the
      Trustee and are not obligated to supervise the performance of the Trustee under
      this Agreement or otherwise. The Trustee shall also afford the NIMS Insurer,
      upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours, access to the Mortgage
      Files and shall cause the Master Servicer and the Servicer to provide such
      access to the Mortgage Files.

      Certificateholders, any NIMS Insurer, and the Rating Agencies via the Trustee’s
      internet website. The Trustee’s internet website shall initially be located at
      http://trustinvestorreporting.com and assistance in using the website can be
      obtained by emailing the Trustee’s customer service desk at
      t.information.delivery@usbank.com. Such parties that are unable to use the
      website are entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first class mail
      by
      calling the customer service desk and indicating such. The Trustee shall have
      the right to change the way such statements are distributed in order to make
      such distribution more convenient and/or more accessible to the above parties
      and the Trustee shall provide timely and adequate notification to all above
      parties regarding any such changes.

     

    The
      Trustee shall provide a “zero settlement file” to Bloomberg L.P. within seven
      (7) calendar days after the receipt of the collateral data file from the
      Depositor, but in no event later than the first Distribution Date, which shall

      effect to any distributions); provided, however, that in no event will such
      zero
      settlement file contain any mortgagor-specific information.

     

    The

    (b)           Upon
      the reasonable advance written request of any Certificateholder that is a
      savings and loan, bank or insurance company, the Master Servicer shall provide,
      or cause to be provided, to the extent such information is available to the

      information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans as such
      Certificateholder may reasonably deem necessary to comply with applicable
      regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or its successor or other
      regulatory authorities with respect to the NIM Securities or an investment
      in
      the Certificates; provided, however, that the Trustee shall be entitled to
      be
      reimbursed by such Certificateholder for the actual expenses incurred in
      providing such reports and access.

     

    (c)           Within
      90 days, or such shorter period as may be required by statute or regulation,
      after the end of each calendar year, the Trustee shall, upon written request,

      for the Trustee to prepare such reports.

      of
      Taxpayer Identification Number Assigned, shall upon request promptly forward
      a
      copy of such notice to the Master Servicer and the Depositor. The Trustee shall

      be
      commingled with any other monies including, without limitation, other monies
      of
      the Trustee held under this Agreement. The Trustee shall give to the Depositor,
      Master Servicer and any NIMS Insurer prior written notice of the name and
      address of the depository institution at which the Certificate Account is
      maintained and the account number of such Certificate Account.

    (b) The
      Trustee shall deposit or cause to be deposited into the Certificate Account,
      on
      the day on which, or, if such day is not a Business Day, the Business Day
      immediately following the day on which, any monies are remitted by the Master
      Servicer to the Trustee, all such amounts. The Trustee shall make withdrawals

    (i) to
      pay
      itself any investment income earned with respect to funds in the Certificate
      Account invested in Eligible Investments as set forth in subsection (c) below,
      and to make payments to itself and others prior to making distributions pursuant
      to Section 5.02 for any expenses or other indemnification owing to itself and
      others pursuant to any provision of this Agreement or any Custodial Agreement;
      provided that such payments are for “unanticipated expenses” within the meaning
      of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii);

     

    (ii) to
      make
      payment to itself pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, or to reimburse
      itself or its agents for any amounts reimbursable to it pursuant to Sections
      6.11, 6.12 or 7.01; provided that such payments are for “unanticipated expenses”
within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section
      1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii);

     

    (iii) to
      withdraw amounts deposited in the Certificate Account in error;

     

    (iv) to
      make
      payments to itself and others pursuant to any provision of this
      Agreement;

     

    (v) to
      make
      distributions to Certificateholders pursuant to Article V; and

     

    (vi) to
      clear
      and terminate the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 7.02.

     

    Any
      withdrawals described in the preceding sentence shall be allocated and limited
      to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Pool and shall be
      accounted for in such manner.

     

    The
      Trustee may invest, or cause to be invested, funds held in the Certificate
      Account, which funds, if invested, shall be invested in Eligible Investments
      (which may be obligations of the Trustee). All such investments must be payable
      on demand or mature no later than the next Distribution Date, and shall not
      be
      sold or disposed of prior to their maturity. All such Eligible Investments
      will
      be made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such) or its nominee.
      All
      income and gain realized from any such investment shall be compensation to
      the
      Trustee and shall be subject to its withdrawal on order from time to time.
      The
      amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall be paid
      by the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate Account out of its own funds,
      without any right of reimbursement therefor, immediately as
      realized.

    Except
      as
      otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, if any default occurs in the
      making of a payment due under any Eligible Investment, or if a default occurs
      in
      any other performance required under any Eligible Investment, the Trustee may
      and, subject to Section 6.01 and Section 6.02(iv), upon the request of the
      NIMS
      Insurer, shall take such action as may be appropriate to enforce such payment
      or
      performance, including the institution and prosecution of appropriate
      proceedings.

              Distributions
                Generally.

            


    

     

    (a)           Subject
      to Section 7.01 respecting the final distribution on the Certificates, on each
      Distribution Date the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall make distributions
      in
      accordance with this Article V. Such distributions shall be made by wire
      transfer if the Certificateholder has provided the Trustee with wire
      instructions or by check mailed to the address of such Certificateholder as
      it
      appears in the books of the Trustee if the Certificateholder has not provided
      the Trustee with wire instructions in immediately available funds to an account
      specified in the request and at the expense of such Certificateholder; provided,
      however, that the final distribution in respect of any Certificate shall be
      made
      only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust
      Office; provided, further, that the foregoing provisions shall not apply to
      any
      Class of Certificates as long as such Certificate remains a Book-Entry
      Certificate in which case all payments made shall be made through the Clearing
      Agency and its Clearing Agency Participants. Notwithstanding such final payment
      of principal of any of the Certificates, each Residual Certificate will remain
      outstanding until the termination of each REMIC and the payment in full of
      all
      other amounts due with respect to the Residual Certificates and at such time
      such final payment in retirement of any Residual Certificate will be made only
      upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the Corporate Trust
      Office. If any payment required to be made on the Certificates is to be made
      on
      a day that is not a Business Day, then such payment will be made on the next
      succeeding Business Day. 

     

    (b)           All
      distributions or allocations made with respect to Certificateholders within
      each
      Class on each Distribution Date shall be allocated among the outstanding
      Certificates of such Class equally in proportion to their respective initial
      Class Principal Amounts or initial Class Notional Amounts (or Percentage
      Interests).

     

    (c)           The
      Trustee shall make payments to Certificateholders and the Swap Counterparty
      and
      any other person pursuant to this Article V based solely on the information
      set
      forth in the monthly report furnished by the Trustee in accordance with Section
      4.03(a), and shall be entitled to conclusively rely on such information and
      reports, and on the calculations contained therein, when making distributions
      to
      Certificateholders and the Swap Counterparty. The Trustee shall have no
      liability for any errors in such reports or information, and shall not be
      required to verify, recompute, reconcile or recalculate any such information
      or
      data.

      payment to the Swap Counterparty and shall allocate such amount to the interests
      issued in respect of each REMIC and shall distribute such amount as specified

    (B)           for
      deposit into the Supplemental Interest Trust Account, any Net Swap Payment

      by
      each such Class’s share of any Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for such
      Distribution Date) accrued on the Related REMIC 2 Interest, then such excess
      Net

      extent payments would otherwise be made to the Class X Certificates in respect
      of the Uncertificated Class X Interest, and then, if necessary, among the

      M1, Class M2, Class M3, Class M4, Class M5, Class M6 and Class M7 Certificates,
      after giving effect to distributions on such Distribution Date, equals the

      the Class M8 Certificates, in reduction of their Class Principal Amount, until

      the aggregate Class Principal Amount of the Senior Certificates and the Class
      M1, Class M2, Class M3, Class M4, Class M5, Class M6, Class M7, Class M8 and
      Class M9 Certificates, after giving effect to distributions on such Distribution
      Date, equals the M9 Target Amount.

      the Residual Certificate, any remaining amount.

     

    (e)           On
      each Distribution Date (or, with respect to clauses (i), (ii) and (viii) below,
      on the related Swap Payment Date), the Trustee shall distribute the Supplemental
      Interest Trust Amount, together with any investment earnings on deposit in
      the

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, however, after giving effect to proposed distributions on any
      Distribution Date, the sum of the cumulative amounts distributed pursuant to
      clause (iv) above and the cumulative amounts distributed pursuant to clause
      (v)
      above shall be limited to the aggregate amount of cumulative Realized Losses
      incurred from the Cut-off Date through the last day of the related Collection
      Period.

     

    (f)           (1)           On
      each Distribution Date on and prior to the Class X Account Termination Date,
      the
      Trustee shall withdraw the Class C Distributable Amount for such Distribution
      Date from the Class X Account, pursuant to Section 5.12 herein, and shall
      distribute such amount to the Class C Certificates. 

     

    (2)           On
      each Distribution Date on or prior to the Class X Termination Date, the Trustee
      shall withdraw amounts on deposit in the Class X Account and distribute such
      amounts to the Class X Certificates, an amount equal to the excess, if any,
      of
      the sum of Realized Losses attributable to the Class C Mortgage Loans over
      the
      sum of all amounts distributed pursuant to this Section 5.02(f)(2) on prior
      Distribution Dates to the Class X Certificates. 

     

    (g)           On
      each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute to the Class P Certificates
      any Prepayment Premiums paid by borrowers upon voluntary full or partial
      prepayment of the Mortgage Loans.

     

    (h)           On
      the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, in
      trust
      for the benefit of the holders of the Class 1-A2A1 and Class 1-A3A1A
      Certificates, a Cap Agreement Account. The Trustee shall deposit all amounts
      received on each Cap Agreement into the Cap Agreement Account. The Cap Agreement
      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 Trustee held pursuant to
      this
      Agreement. On each Distribution Date, each Class of LIBOR Certificates shall
      only be entitled to receive amounts from the Cap Agreement related to such
      Class. Subject to the preceding sentence, on each Distribution Date, the Trustee
      shall distribute the amounts in the Cap Agreement Account to the Class 1-A2A1
      and Class 1-A3A1A Certificates, as applicable, up to the amount of any
      applicable Basis Risk Shortfall and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfall for each such
      Class on such Distribution Date prior to distributions pursuant to Section
      5.02(d)(iv) hereof. On each Distribution Date, all remaining amounts in the
      Cap
      Agreement Account derived from the Cap Agreement related to the Class 1-A2A1
      Certificates shall be distributed to the holders of the Class 1-A2A1
      Certificates and all remaining amounts in the Cap Agreement Account derived
      from
      the Cap Agreement related to the Class 1-A3A1A Certificates shall be distributed
      to the holders of the Class 1-A3A1A Certificates, but such distributions shall
      not reduce the Class Principal Amounts of such Certificates and such excess
      distributions shall be disregarded for purposes of computing any future
      distributions to such Certificates.

     

    Funds
      in
      the Cap Agreement Account shall remain uninvested. For federal income tax
      purposes, the Class 1-A2A1 Certificates and the Class 1-A3A1A Certificates
      shall
      each evidence ownership of the Cap Agreement related to such Class and the
      portion of the Cap Agreement Account related to such Cap Agreement.

    The
      Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to enter into and execute the Cap
      Agreements on the Closing Date on behalf of the Trust Fund (for the benefit
      of
      the Certificateholders). The Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
      Certificateholders (by their acceptance of such Certificates) acknowledge that
      U.S. Bank National Association is entering into the Cap Agreements solely in
      its
      capacity as Trustee of the Trust Fund and not in its individual
      capacity.

    (a)           On
      each Distribution Date, the aggregate Class Principal Amount of the Certificates
      shall be reduced by the amount of any Applied Loss Amount for such date, in
      the
      following order of priority:

      the Class M9 Certificates, until the Class Principal Amount of such Class has

      the Class M5 Certificates, until the Class Principal Amount of such Class has
      been reduced to zero;

     

    (vi)           to
      the Class M4 Certificates, until the Class Principal Amount of such Class has
      been reduced to zero;

     

    (vii)           to
      the Class M3 Certificates, until the Class Principal Amount of such Class has

    (viii)           to
      the Class M2 Certificates, until the Class Principal Amount of such Class has

    (ix)           to
      the Class M1 Certificates, until the Class Principal Amount of such Class has

    (x)           pro

      on the
      basis of Realized Losses on the related Mortgage Pool, (A) concurrently (i)

      Class 1-A4B Certificates and
      second,

      Principal Amounts have been reduced to zero and (iv) first, the Class 1-A1B
      Certificates and second, pro
      rata,

              Advances
                by Master Servicer, Servicer and
                Trustee.

            


    

     

    (a)           Subject
      to Section 9.07, Advances shall be made in respect of each Determination Date
      as
      provided herein. If, on any Determination Date, any Servicer determines that
      any
      Scheduled Payments due during the related Collection Period (other than Balloon
      Payments) and relating to any of the Mortgage Loans that it services have not
      been received, such Servicer shall advance such amount to the extent provided
      in
      the related Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that with respect to the
      GMACM Transferred Mortgage Loans the Master Servicer shall advance any such
      amounts. If the applicable Servicer fails to remit Advances required to be
      made
      under the related Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall itself make,
      or
      shall cause the successor Servicer to make, such Advance on the Deposit Date
      immediately following such Determination Date; provided, however, that required
      Advances remitted by the applicable Servicer or the Master Servicer may be
      reduced by an amount, if any, to be set forth in an Officer’s Certificate to be
      delivered to the Trustee on such Determination Date, which if advanced the
      Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer has determined would not be
      recoverable from amounts received with respect to such Mortgage Loan, including
      late payments, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or otherwise. If the
      Master Servicer determines that an Advance is required, it shall on the Deposit
      Date immediately following such Determination Date either (i) remit to the
      Trustee from its own funds (or funds advanced by the applicable Servicer) for
      deposit in the Certificate Account immediately available funds in an amount
      equal to such Advance, (ii) cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records
      of the Collection Account that funds in such account being held for future
      distribution or withdrawal have been, as permitted by this Section 5.04, used
      by
      the Master Servicer to make such Advance, and remit such immediately available
      funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Certificate Account or (iii) make
      Advances in the form of any combination of clauses (i) and (ii) aggregating
      the
      amount of such Advance. Any funds being held in the Collection Account for
      future distribution to Certificateholders and so used shall be replaced by
      the
      Master Servicer from its own funds by remittance to the Trustee for deposit
      in
      the Certificate Account on or before any future Deposit Date to the extent
      that
      funds in the Certificate Account on such Deposit Date shall be less than
      payments to Certificateholders required to be made on the related Distribution
      Date. The Master Servicer and the Servicers shall be entitled to be reimbursed
      from the Collection Account for all Advances made by it as provided in Section
      4.02. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event the Master
      Servicer determines in its reasonable judgment that an Advance is
      non-recoverable, the Master Servicer shall be under no obligation to make such
      Advance. The Trustee shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon any
      determination by the Master Servicer that an Advance, if made, would constitute
      a non-recoverable Advance.

     

    (b)           In
      the event that the Master Servicer or any Servicer fails for any reason to
      make
      an Advance required to be made pursuant to this Section 5.04 on or before the
      Deposit Date, the Trustee, solely in its capacity as successor Master Servicer
      pursuant to Section 6.14, shall, on or before the related Distribution Date,
      deposit in the Certificate Account an amount equal to the excess of (a) Advances
      required to be made by the Master Servicer or any Servicer that would have
      been
      deposited in such Certificate Account over (b) the amount of any Advance made
      by
      the Master Servicer or such Servicer with respect to such Distribution Date;
      provided, however, that the Trustee shall be required to make such Advance
      only
      if it is not prohibited by law from doing so and it has determined that such
      Advance would be recoverable from amounts to be received with respect to such
      Mortgage Loan, including late payments, Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance
      Proceeds, or otherwise. The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from
      the
      Certificate Account for Advances made by it pursuant to this Section 5.04 as
      if
      it were the Master Servicer.

      Master Servicer shall be responsible for making Compensating Interest Payments
      with respect to the GMACM Transferred Mortgage Loans, but shall not otherwise
      be
      responsible for making any Compensating Interest Payments not made by the
      Servicers. Any Compensating Interest Payments made by the Servicers or the
      Master Servicer shall be a component of the Interest Remittance
      Amount.

      the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, in
      trust
      for the benefit of the holders of the Certificates, a Basis Risk Reserve Fund.
      The Basis Risk Reserve Fund 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 Trustee
      held pursuant to this Agreement.

     

    (b)           [Reserved]

     

    (c)           Funds
      in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund shall be invested in Eligible Investments. The
      Class X Certificates shall evidence ownership of the Basis Risk Reserve Fund
      for
      federal income tax purposes and LBH, on behalf of the Holders thereof, shall
      direct the Trustee, in writing, as to investment of amounts on deposit therein.
      LBH shall be liable for any losses incurred on such investments. In the absence
      of written instructions from LBH as to investment funds on deposit in the Basis
      Risk Reserve Fund, such funds shall remain uninvested.

              Supplemental
                Interest Trust.

            


    

     

    (a)           A
      separate trust is hereby established (the “Supplemental Interest Trust”), the
      corpus of which shall be held by the Trustee, in trust, for the benefit of
      the
      holders of the Certificates and the Swap Counterparty. The Trustee, as trustee
      of the Supplemental Interest Trust, shall establish an account (the
“Supplemental Interest Trust Account”), into which LBH shall initially deposit
      $1,000. The Supplemental Interest Trust 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 Trustee held pursuant to this Agreement. 

     

    (b)           The
      Trustee shall deposit into the Supplemental Interest Trust Account any Net
      Swap
      Payment required pursuant to Sections 5.02(a) and 5.02(c), any Swap Termination
      Payment required pursuant to Sections 5.02(a) and 5.02(c), any amounts received
      from the Swap Counterparty under the Swap Agreement and any amounts distributed
      from the Basis Risk Reserve Fund required pursuant to Section 5.02(d)(v), and
      shall distribute from the Supplemental Interest Trust Account any Net Swap
      Payment required pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(i) or Swap Termination Payment
      required pursuant to Sections 5.02(e)(ii) and (viii).

    (c)           Funds
      in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account shall be invested in Eligible
      Investments. Any earnings on such amounts shall be distributed on each
      Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.02(e). The Class X Certificates shall
      evidence ownership of the Supplemental Interest Trust Account for federal income
      tax purposes and the Holder thereof shall direct the Trustee, in writing, as
      to
      investment of amounts on deposit therein. The Class X Certificateholders shall
      be liable for any losses incurred on such investments. In the absence of written
      instructions from the Class X Certificateholders as to investment of funds
      on
      deposit in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account, such funds shall be invested
      in the First American Government Obligations Fund or comparable investment
      vehicle. Any amounts on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Trust Account
      in
      excess of the Supplemental Interest Trust Amount on any Distribution Date shall
      be held for distribution pursuant to Section 5.02(e) on the following
      Distribution Date.

     

    (d)           Upon
      termination of the Trust Fund, any amounts remaining in the Supplemental
      Interest Trust Account shall be distributed pursuant to the priorities set
      forth
      in Section 5.02(e).

     

    (e)           It
      is the intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and
      state and local franchise tax purposes, the Supplemental Interest Trust be
      disregarded as an entity separate from the holder of the Class X Certificates
      unless and until the date when either (a) there is more than one Class X
      Certificateholder or (b) any Class of Certificates in addition to the Class
      X
      Certificates is recharacterized as an equity interest in the Supplemental
      Interest Trust for federal income tax purposes. The Trustee shall not be
      responsible for any entity level tax reporting for the Supplemental Interest
      Trust.

     

    (f)           To
      the extent that the Supplemental Interest Trust is determined to be a separate
      legal entity from the Trustee, any obligation of the Trustee under the Swap
      Agreement shall be deemed to be an obligation of the Supplemental Interest
      Trust.

              Rights
                of Swap Counterparty. 

            


    

     

    The
      Swap
      Counterparty shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement to
      the
      same extent as if it were a party hereto and shall have the right, upon
      designation of an “Early Termination Date” (as defined in the Swap Agreement),
      to enforce its rights under this Agreement, which rights include but are not
      limited to the obligation of the Trustee (A) to deposit any Net Swap Payment
      required pursuant to Sections 5.02(a) and 5.02(c), and any Swap Termination
      Payment required pursuant to Sections 5.02(a) and 5.02(c), into the Supplemental
      Interest Trust Account, (B) to deposit any amounts from the Basis Risk Reserve
      Fund required pursuant to Section 5.07(b) into the Supplemental Interest Trust
      Account, (C) to pay any Net Swap Payment required pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(i)
      or Swap Termination Payment required pursuant to Sections 5.02(e)(ii) and (viii)
      to the Swap Counterparty and (D) to establish and maintain the Supplemental
      Interest Trust Account, to make such deposits thereto, investments therein
      and
      distributions therefrom as are required pursuant to Section 5.07. For the
      protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section the Swap
      Counterparty shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law
      or
      in equity.

              Termination
                Receipts. 

            


    

     

    In
      the
      event of an “Early Termination Event” as defined under the Swap Agreement, (i)
      any Swap Termination Payment made by the Swap Counterparty to the Supplemental
      Interest Trust and paid pursuant to Section 5.02(e)(viii) (“Termination
      Receipts”) will be deposited in a segregated non-interest bearing account which
      shall be an Eligible Account established by the Trustee (the “Termination
      Receipts Account”) and (ii) any amounts received from a replacement Swap
      Counterparty (“Replacement Receipts”) will be deposited in a segregated
      non-interest bearing account which shall be an Eligible Account established
      by
      the Trustee (the “Replacement Receipts Account”). The Trustee shall invest, or
      cause to be invested, funds held in the Termination Receipts Account and the
      Replacement Receipts Account in time deposits of the Trustee as permitted by
      clause (ii) of the definition of Eligible Investments or as otherwise directed
      in writing by a majority of the Certificateholders. All such investments must
      be
      payable on demand or mature on a Swap Payment Date or such other date as
      directed by the Certificateholders. All such Eligible Investments will be made
      in the name of the Trustee of the Supplemental Interest Trust (in its capacity
      as such) or its nominee. All income and gain realized from any such investment
      shall be deposited in the Termination Receipts Account or the Replacement
      Receipts Account, as applicable, and all losses, if any, shall be borne by
      the
      related account. 

     

    Unless
      otherwise permitted by the Rating Agencies as evidenced in a written
      confirmation, the Depositor shall arrange for replacement Swap Agreement(s)
      and
      the Trustee shall promptly, with the assistance and cooperation of the
      Depositor, use amounts on deposit in the Termination Receipts Account, if
      necessary, to enter into replacement Swap Agreement(s) which shall be executed
      and delivered by the Trustee on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust upon
      receipt of written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such replacement
      Swap Agreement(s) will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating
      of any outstanding Class of Certificates with respect to which it is a Rating
      Agency. 

     

    Amounts
      on deposit in the Replacement Receipts Account shall be held for the benefit
      of
      the related Swap Counterparty and paid to such Swap Counterparty if the
      Supplemental Interest Trust is required to make a payment to such Swap
      Counterparty following an event of default or termination event with respect
      to
      the Supplemental Interest Trust under the related Swap Agreement. Any amounts
      not so applied shall, following the termination or expiration of such Swap
      Agreement, be paid to the Class X Certificates. Neither the Termination Receipts
      Account nor the Replacement Receipts Account shall be the asset of any
      REMIC.

              Capitalized
                Interest Account.

            


    

     

    (a)           No
      later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain a
      segregated trust account that is an Eligible Account, which shall be titled
      “Capitalized Interest Account, U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee for
      the registered holders of Lehman XS Trust Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates
      Series 2006-12N” (the “Capitalized Interest Account”). The Trustee shall,
      promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Capitalized Interest Account and retain
      therein the Capitalized Interest Amount remitted on the Closing Date to the
      Trustee by the Depositor. Funds deposited in the Capitalized Interest Account
      shall be held in trust by the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders for
      the uses and purposes set forth herein. With respect to each Distribution Date
      up to and including the Distribution Date in October 2006, the Trustee will
      withdraw funds from the Capitalized Interest Account and such funds shall be
      used to pay (i) first, to the Senior Certificates, the amount of any Basis
      Risk
      Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls for each such Class and such
      Distribution Date, in proportion to the amount of such shortfalls and (ii)
      second, to the Subordinate Certificates, in accordance with the Subordinate
      Priority, any applicable Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls
      for each such Class and such Distribution Date,
      in each
      case, after giving effect (x) to distributions under Section 5.02(d)
      and
      Section 5.02(e) and (y) in the case of the Class 1-A2A1 and Class 1-A3A1A
      Certificates, amounts paid to such Class on such Distribution Date out of
      amounts received on the related Cap Agreement.

    (b)           The
      Trustee will invest funds deposited in the Capitalized Interest Account in
      Eligible Investments as directed in writing by the Depositor (provided that
      if
      the Trustee does not receive written direction from the Depositor, the amounts
      in the Capitalized Interest Account shall not be invested) with a maturity
      date
      no later than the Business Day preceding each Distribution Date. For federal
      income tax purposes, the Depositor shall be the owner of the Capitalized
      Interest Account and shall report all items of income, deduction, gain or loss
      arising therefrom. At no time will the Capitalized Interest Account be an asset
      of any of the REMICs provided for herein. All income and gain realized from
      investment of funds deposited in the Capitalized Interest Account shall be
      for
      the sole and exclusive benefit of the Depositor and shall be remitted by the
      Trustee to the Depositor on each Distribution Date. The Depositor shall deposit
      in the Capitalized Interest Account the amount of any net loss incurred in
      respect of any such Eligible Investment immediately upon realization of such
      loss.

     

    (c)           On
      the Distribution Date in October 2006, any amount remaining on deposit in the
      Capitalized Interest Account after withdrawals pursuant to paragraph (a) above
      shall be withdrawn by the Trustee and paid to the Depositor or its
      designee.

    (a)           On
      the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, in
      trust
      for the benefit of the holders of the Class X Certificates, the Class X Account.
      No later than the first date on which any NIMS Securities are issued, the
      Depositor shall deposit a dollar amount into the Class X Account. The Class
      X
      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 Trustee held pursuant to
      this
      Agreement.

     

    (b)           Funds
      in the Class X Account may be invested in Eligible Investments having fixed
      maturities described in clauses (i), (iv), (v) or (vii) of the definition
      thereof by the Trustee at the direction of the holders of the Class C
      Certificates maturing on or prior to the next succeeding Distribution Date.
      No
      Eligible Investments shall be acquired or disposed of for the primary purpose
      of
      recognizing gains or decreasing losses from market value changes. Any funds
      held
      in the Class X Account that are not invested shall be held in cash. In the
      absence of such written direction, all funds in the Class X Account shall remain
      uninvested. Any investment earnings on such amounts shall be payable to the
      holders of the Class C Certificates. The Trustee shall account for the Class
      X
      Account as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury regulation
      1.860G-2(h) and not an asset of any REMIC created pursuant to this Agreement.
      The Class C Certificates shall evidence ownership of the Class X Account for
      federal tax purposes and the Holders thereof shall direct the Trustee in writing
      as to the investment of amounts therein. The Trustee shall have no liability
      for
      losses on investments in Eligible Investments made pursuant to this Section
      5.12(b) (other than as obligor on any such investments). Upon termination of
      the
      Class X Account, any amounts remaining in the Class X Account shall be
      distributed to the Holders of the Class C Certificates in the same manner as
      if
      distributed pursuant to Section 5.02(f)(1) hereof.

    (c)           On
      each Distribution Date on or prior to the Class X Termination Date, amounts
      on
      deposit in the Class X Account will be withdrawn and applied to make payments
      on
      the Class X and Class C Certificates, as provided in Section 5.02(f)(1) of
      this
      Agreement. Any amounts that the Trustee is not required to distribute from
      the
      Class X Account pursuant to Section 5.02(f) of this Agreement shall remain
      on
      deposit in the Class X Account.

     

    (d)           The
      Class X Account shall terminate on the earlier of (i) the Class X Account
      Termination Date or (ii) the Distribution Date on which the amount on deposit
      in
      the Class X Account is reduced to zero.

    CONCERNING
      THE TRUSTEE EVENTS OF DEFAULT

     

    
      	 	
              Section
                6.01.

            	
              Duties
                of Trustee.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Trustee, except during the continuance of an Event of Default of which a
      Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge, undertakes
      to
      perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this
      Agreement. Any permissive right of the Trustee provided for in this Agreement
      shall not be construed as a duty of the Trustee. If an Event of Default (of
      which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge) has
      occurred and has not otherwise been cured or waived, the Trustee shall exercise
      such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement and use the same
      degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent Person would exercise
      or
      use under the circumstances in the conduct of such Person’s own affairs, unless
      the Trustee is acting as Master Servicer, in which case it shall use the same
      degree of care and skill as the Master Servicer hereunder.

     

    (b)           The
      Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions,
      reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee which
      are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this
      Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they are, on their face,
      in
      the form required by this Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee shall
      not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any such resolution,
      certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order or other instrument
      furnished by the Master Servicer, the Cap Provider, the Swap Counterparty or
      any
      Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, and shall not be required
      to
      recalculate or verify any numerical information furnished to the Trustee
      pursuant to this Agreement. Subject to the immediately preceding sentence,
      if
      any such resolution, certificate, statement, opinion, report, document, order
      or
      other instrument is found not to conform on its face to the form required by
      this Agreement in a material manner the Trustee shall notify the Person
      providing such resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports or
      other
      documents of the non-conformity, and if the instrument is not corrected to
      the
      Trustee’s satisfaction, the Trustee will provide notice thereof to the
      Certificateholders and any NIMS Insurer and will, at the expense of the Trust
      Fund, which expense shall be reasonable given the scope and nature of the
      required action, take such further action as directed by the Certificateholders
      and any NIMS Insurer.

    (c)           The
      Trustee shall not have any liability arising out of or in connection with this
      Agreement, except for its negligence or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding
      anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee shall not be liable
      for
      special, indirect or consequential losses or damages of any kind whatsoever
      (including, but not limited to, lost profits). No provision of this Agreement
      shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent
      action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct;
      provided, however, that:

     

    (i)           The
      Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken,
      suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
      consent or direction of the Holders of Certificates as provided in Section
      6.18
      hereof;

     

    (ii)           For
      all purposes under this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have
      notice of any Event of Default (other than resulting from a failure by the
      Master Servicer to remit funds or to furnish information to the Trustee when
      required to do so) unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual
      knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such
      a
      default is received by the Trustee at the address provided in Section 11.07,
      and
      such notice references the Holders of the Certificates and this Agreement;
      and

     

    (iii)           The
      Trustee shall not be responsible for the acts or omissions of any
      Servicer, Custodian or the
      Master Servicer,
      it being understood that this Agreement shall not be construed to render any
      of
      them agents of one another.

     

    (d)           The
      Trustee shall have no duty hereunder with respect to any complaint, claim,
      demand, notice or other document it may receive or which may be alleged to
      have
      been delivered to or served upon it by the parties as a consequence of the
      assignment of any Mortgage Loan hereunder; provided, however, that the Trustee
      shall promptly remit to the Master Servicer upon receipt any such complaint,
      claim, demand, notice or other document (i) which is delivered to the Corporate
      Trust Office of the Trustee and makes reference to this series of Certificate
      or
      this Agreement, (ii) of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, and
      (iii) which contains information sufficient to permit the Trustee to make a
      determination that the real property to which such document relates is a
      Mortgaged Property.

    (e)           The
      Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken,
      suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the
      direction of any NIMS Insurer or the Certificateholders of any Class holding
      Certificates which evidence, as to such Class, Percentage Interests aggregating
      not less than 25% as to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding
      for any remedy available to the Trustee or exercising any trust or power
      conferred upon the Trustee under this Agreement.

     

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


     

    (g)           The
      Trustee shall not be held liable by reason of any insufficiency in any account
      (including without limitation the Collection Account, the Cap Agreement Account
      and the Certificate Account) held by or on behalf of the Trustee resulting
      from
      any investment loss on any Eligible Investment included therein (except to
      the
      extent that the Trustee is the obligor and has defaulted thereon).

    The
      Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
      Agreement, the Swap Agreements, the Cap Agreements or of the Certificates (other
      than the certificate of authentication on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage
      Loan, or related document save that the Trustee represents that, assuming due
      execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, this Agreement has been
      duly
      authorized, executed and delivered by it and constitutes its valid and binding
      obligation, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except that
      such

      and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors

      any
      other fund or account maintained with respect to the Certificates. The Trustee
      shall not be responsible for the legality or validity of this Agreement, the
      Swap Agreements, the Cap Agreements or the validity, priority, perfection or
      sufficiency of the security for the Certificates issued or intended to be issued

      security interest or lien granted to it hereunder or to record this
      Agreement.

    The
      Trustee hereunder shall at all times be (i) an institution whose accounts are
      insured by the FDIC, (ii) a corporation or national banking association,
      organized and doing business under the laws of any State or the United States
      of
      America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having
      a
      combined capital and surplus of not less than $50,000,000 and subject to
      supervision or examination by federal or state authority and (iii) not an
      Affiliate of the Master Servicer or any Servicer. If such corporation or
      national banking association publishes reports of condition at least annually,
      pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining
      authority, then, for the purposes of this Section, the combined capital and
      surplus of such corporation or national banking 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 provisions of this Section, the Trustee shall resign

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

     

    (b)           If
      at any time (i) the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
      provisions of Section 6.05 and shall fail to resign after written request
      therefor by the Depositor or any NIMS Insurer, (ii) the Trustee shall become
      incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged a 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 tax is
      imposed or threatened with respect to the Trust Fund by any state in which
      the
      Trustee or the Trust Fund held by the Trustee is located, (iv) the continued
      use
      of the Trustee would result in a downgrading of the rating by any Rating Agency
      of any Class of Certificates with a rating, or (v) the Trustee shall fail to
      provide the information required pursuant to Section 6.01(k) or (l) or Section
      9.25 hereof,
      then
      the Depositor, any NIMS Insurer or the Master Servicer shall remove the Trustee
      and the Depositor shall appoint a successor trustee acceptable to any NIMS
      Insurer and the Master Servicer by written instrument, one copy of which
      instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed, one copy each to the
      successor trustee and one copy to the Master Servicer, the Swap Counterparty
      and
      any NIMS Insurer.

      of each Class of Certificates (or any NIMS Insurer in the event of failure
      of
      the Trustee to perform its obligations hereunder) may at any time upon 30 days’
written notice to the Trustee and the Depositor remove the Trustee by such
      written instrument, signed by such Holders or their attorney in fact duly
      authorized (or by any NIMS Insurer), one copy of which instrument shall be
      delivered to the Depositor, one copy to the Trustee and one copy to the Master
      Servicer, the Swap Counterparty and any NIMS Insurer; the Depositor shall
      thereupon appoint a successor trustee in accordance with this Section mutually
      acceptable to the Depositor and the Master Servicer and any NIMS
      Insurer.

     

    (d)           Any
      resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee
      pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall become effective upon
      (i) the payment of all unpaid amounts owed to the Trustee and (ii) the
      acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section

      successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 6.06 shall execute,
      acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and the Master Servicer and any NIMS
      Insurer, the Swap Counterparty 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
      like effect as if originally named as trustee herein. The predecessor trustee
      (or its custodian) shall deliver to the successor trustee (or assign to the
      Trustee its interest under each Custodial Agreement, to the extent permitted
      thereunder) all Mortgage Files and documents and statements related to each
      Mortgage File held by it hereunder, and shall duly assign, transfer, deliver
      and
      pay over to the successor trustee the entire Trust Fund, together with all
      necessary instruments of transfer and assignment or other documents properly
      executed necessary to effect such transfer and such of the records or copies
      thereof maintained by the predecessor trustee in the administration hereof
      as
      may be requested by the successor trustee and shall thereupon be discharged
      from
      all duties and responsibilities under this Agreement. In addition, the Master
      Servicer and the predecessor trustee shall execute and deliver such other
      instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required to more
      fully
      and certainly vest and confirm in the successor trustee all such rights, powers,
      duties and obligations.

      the
      provisions of Section 6.05.

     

    (c)           Upon
      acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section,
      the predecessor trustee shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee
      hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in the
      Certificate Register and to any Rating Agency. The expenses of such mailing
      shall be borne by the predecessor trustee.

      act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
      notwithstanding, provided that such Person shall be eligible under the
      provisions of Section 6.05. As

    (a)           Notwithstanding
      any other provisions hereof, at any time, the Trustee, the Depositor or the
      Certificateholders evidencing more than 50% of the Class Principal Amount (or
      Percentage Interest) of every Class of Certificates shall have the power from
      time to time to appoint one or more Persons, approved by the Trustee and any
      NIMS Insurer, to act either as co trustees jointly with the Trustee, or as
      separate trustees, or as custodians, for the purpose of holding title to,
      foreclosing or otherwise taking action with respect to any Mortgage Loan outside
      the state where the Trustee has its principal place of business where such
      separate trustee or co trustee is necessary or advisable (or the Trustee has
      been advised by the Master Servicer that such separate trustee or co-trustee
      is
      necessary or advisable) under the laws of any state in which a property securing
      a Mortgage Loan is located or for the purpose of otherwise conforming to any
      legal requirement, restriction or condition in any state in which a property
      securing a Mortgage Loan is located or in any state in which any portion of
      the
      Trust Fund is located. The separate Trustees, co trustees, or custodians so
      appointed shall be trustees or custodians for the benefit of all the
      Certificateholders and shall have such powers, rights and remedies as shall
      be
      specified in the instrument of appointment; provided, however, that no such
      appointment shall, or shall be deemed to, constitute the appointee an agent
      of
      the Trustee. The obligation of the Trustee to make Advances pursuant to Section

      trustee. Prior
      to

      pursuant to this Section 6.09, such Person shall enter into an agreement, in
      form and substance satisfactory to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the
      Trustee, relating to the satisfaction of such Person of its reporting
      obligations under Regulation AB with respect to any servicing performed by
      it in
      connection with the Trust Fund. The
      Trustee shall not be responsible for any action or omission of any separate
      trustee, co-trustee or custodian.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such co-custodian or co-trustee is determined
      to be a Servicing Function Participant, no such co-custodian or co-trustee
      shall
      be vested with any powers, rights and remedies under this Agreement unless
      such
      party has agreed to comply with all Regulation AB requirements set forth under
      this Agreement or each Custodial Agreement, as applicable.

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

     

    (i)           all
      powers, duties, obligations and rights conferred upon the Trustee in respect
      of
      the receipt, custody and payment of moneys shall be exercised solely by the
      Trustee;

     

    (ii)           all
      other rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the
      Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the
      Trustee and such separate trustee, co trustee, or custodian jointly, except
      to
      the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act
      or
      acts are to be performed the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to
      perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and
      obligations, including the holding of title to the Trust Fund or any portion
      thereof in any such jurisdiction, shall be exercised and performed by such
      separate trustee, co trustee, or custodian;

     

    (iii)           no
      trustee or custodian hereunder shall be personally liable by reason of any
      act
      or omission of any other trustee or custodian hereunder; and

     

    (iv)           the
      Trustee or the Certificateholders evidencing more than 50% of the Aggregate
      Voting Interests of the Certificates may at any time accept the resignation
      of
      or remove any separate trustee, co trustee or custodian, so appointed by it
      or
      them, if such resignation or removal does not violate the other terms of this
      Agreement.

     

    (c)           Any
      notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have
      been given to each of the then separate trustees and co trustees, as effectively
      as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee,
      co trustee or custodian shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of
      this
      Article VI. 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 given to the Master
      Servicer and any NIMS Insurer.

     

    (d)           Any
      separate trustee, co trustee or custodian 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, co trustee
      or
      custodian shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all
      of
      its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be
      exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the
      appointment of a new or successor trustee.

    (e)           No
      separate trustee, co trustee or custodian hereunder shall be required to meet
      the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.05 hereunder
      and
      no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment shall be required under
      Section 6.07 hereof.

     

    (f)           The
      Trustee agrees to instruct the co trustees, if any, to the extent necessary
      to
      fulfill the Trustee’s obligations hereunder.

     

    (g)           The
      Trustee shall pay the reasonable compensation of the co trustees requested
      by
      the Trustee to be so appointed (which compensation shall not reduce any
      compensation payable to the Trustee) and, if paid by the Trustee, shall be
      a
      reimbursable expense pursuant to Section 6.12.

     

    (h)           Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, for so long as reports are required to be filed with the
      Commission under the Exchange Act with respect to the Trust, the Trustee shall
      not utilize any Subcontractor for the performance of its duties hereunder if
      such Subcontractor would be “participating in the servicing function” within the
      meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB without (a) giving notice to the Seller,
      the Master Servicer and the Depositor and (b) requiring any such Subcontractor
      to provide to the Trustee an assessment report as provided in Section 9.25(a)
      and an attestation report as provided in Section 9.25(b), which reports the
      Trustee shall include in its assessment and attestation reports. The Trustee
      shall indemnify the Depositor and the Master Servicer and any director, officer,
      employee or agent of each of the Depositor and the Master Servicer and hold
      them
      harmless against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines,
      forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments,
      and any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain in any
      way
      related to any failure by the Trustee (i) to give notice of the engagement
      of
      any Subcontractor or (ii) to require any Subcontractor to provide the Trustee
      an
      assessment of compliance as provided in Section 9.25(a) and an attestation
      report as provided in Section 9.25(b). This indemnity shall survive the
      termination of this Agreement or the earlier resignation or removal of the
      Trustee.

              Authenticating
                Agents.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents which shall be authorized
      to act on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating Certificates. Wherever
      reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by
      the
      Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, such reference shall be
      deemed to include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating
      Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee
      by
      an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent must be a corporation
      organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America
      or
      of any state, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000,
      authorized under such laws to do a trust business and subject to supervision
      or
      examination by federal or state authorities and acceptable to any NIMS
      Insurer.

    (b)           Any
      Person into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or converted or with
      which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger,
      conversion or consolidation to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party,
      or any Person succeeding to the corporate agency business of any Authenticating
      Agent, shall continue to be the Authenticating Agent without the execution
      or
      filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the
      Authenticating Agent.

     

    (c)           Any
      Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at least 30 days’ advance
      written notice of resignation to the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the
      Depositor. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any
      Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such
      Authenticating Agent, any NIMS Insurer and the Depositor. Upon receiving a
      notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time any
      Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
      provisions of this Section 6.10, the Trustee may appoint a successor
      Authenticating Agent, shall give written notice of such appointment to the
      Depositor and any NIMS Insurer and shall mail notice of such appointment to
      all
      Holders of Certificates. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance
      of
      its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers,
      duties and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect
      as if
      originally named as Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent
      shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.10.
      No
      Authenticating Agent shall have responsibility or liability for any action
      taken
      by it as such at the direction of the Trustee. Any Authenticating Agent shall
      be
      entitled to reasonable compensation for its services and, if paid by the
      Trustee, it shall be a reimbursable expense pursuant to Section
      6.12.

              Indemnification
                of Trustee.

            


    

     

    The
      Trustee and its respective directors, officers, employees and agents shall
      be
      entitled to indemnification from the Trust Fund for any loss, liability or
      expense incurred in connection with any legal proceeding or incurred without
      negligence or willful misconduct on their part (it being understood that the
      negligence or willful misconduct of any Custodian shall not constitute
      negligence or willful misconduct on the part of the Trustee or its directors,
      officers, employees or agents for such purpose), arising out of, or in
      connection with, the acceptance or administration of the trusts created
      hereunder or in connection with the performance of their duties hereunder,
      the
      Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, the Cap Agreements, the Swap Agreements, any
      Transfer Agreement, any Servicing Agreement or any Custodial Agreement,
      including any applicable fees and expenses payable pursuant to Section 6.12
      and
      the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim in connection
      with the exercise or performance of any of their powers or duties hereunder,
      provided that:

     

    (i)           with
      respect to any such claim, the Trustee shall have given the Depositor, the
      Master Servicer and the Holders written notice thereof promptly after the
      Trustee shall have knowledge thereof; provided that failure to so notify shall
      not relieve the Trust Fund of the obligation to indemnify the Trustee; however,
      any reasonable delay by the Trustee to provide written notice to the Depositor,
      the Master Servicer and the Holders promptly after the Trustee shall have
      obtained knowledge of a claim shall not relieve the Trust Fund of the obligation
      to indemnify the Trustee under this Section 6.11;

    (ii)           while
      maintaining control over its own defense, the Trustee shall cooperate and
      consult fully with the Depositor in preparing such defense; and

     

    (iii)           notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary in this Section 6.11, the Trust Fund shall not be
      liable for settlement of any such claim by the Trustee entered into without
      the
      prior consent of the Depositor, which consent shall not be unreasonably
      withheld.

     

    The
      provisions of this Section 6.11 shall survive any termination of this Agreement
      and the resignation or removal of the Trustee and shall be construed to include,
      but not be limited to any loss, liability or expense under any environmental
      law.

    The
      Trustee shall be entitled to (i) receive, and is authorized to pay itself,
      the

      Account and (ii) reimbursement of all reasonable expenses, disbursements and
      advances incurred or made by the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement

      its
      employment and any amounts described in Section 10.01 to which the Trustee
      is
      entitled as provided therein), except for expenses, disbursements and advances
      that either (i) do not constitute “unanticipated expenses” within the meaning of
      Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) or (ii) arise from its
      negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. The Custodian shall receive
      compensation and reimbursement or payment of its expenses under the Custodial
      Agreement as provided therein; provided that, to the extent required under
      Section 6 or Section 20 of the Custodial Agreement, the Trustee is hereby
      authorized to pay such compensation or reimbursement from amounts on deposit
      in
      the Certificate Account prior to any distributions to Certificateholders
      pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof.

      payable to or receivable by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement. The Trustee
      shall hold all such money and property received by it as part of the Trust
      Fund
      and shall distribute it as provided in this Agreement. If the Trustee shall
      not
      have timely received amounts to be remitted with respect to the Mortgage Loans
      from the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall request the Master Servicer to
      make
      such distribution as promptly as practicable or legally permitted. If the
      Trustee shall subsequently receive any such amount, it may withdraw such
      request.

      or
      Holders of not less than 25% of the Class Principal Amount of each Class of

      Class
      Principal Amount (or Class Notional Amount) of each Class of Certificates
      affected thereby or by any NIMS Insurer; or

      decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having
      jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator
      in

      Master Servicer has notice or actual knowledge that a Servicer at any time
      is
      not either a Fannie Mae- or Freddie Mac- approved Seller/Servicer, and the
      Master Servicer has not terminated the rights and obligations of such Servicer
      under the Servicing Agreement and replaced such Servicer with a Fannie Mae-
      or
      Freddie Mac-approved servicer within 60 days of the date the Master Servicer

    If
      an

      6.14 shall occur, then, in each and every case, subject to applicable law,
      so
      long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied within the time
      period prescribed by clause (x) of this Section 6.14, the Trustee, by notice
      in
      writing to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, shall promptly terminate
      all the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder and in and
      to
      the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. On or after the receipt by the
      Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Master
      Servicer, and only in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement,
      whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and
      be
      vested in the Trustee and pursuant to and under the terms of this Agreement;
      provided, however, the parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding
      sentence, there may be a transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order
      to
      effect the transfer of the Master Servicer’s obligations to the Trustee, the
      Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf
      of
      the defaulting Master Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all
      documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or
      things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
      termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment
      of
      the Mortgage Loans and related documents or otherwise. The defaulting Master
      Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination
      of
      the defaulting Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder as Master
      Servicer including, without limitation, notifying the Servicers of the
      assignment of the master servicing function and providing the Trustee or its
      designee all documents and records in electronic or other form reasonably
      requested by it to enable the Trustee or its designee to assume the defaulting
      Master Servicer’s functions hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee for
      administration by it of all amounts which shall at the time be or should have
      been deposited by the defaulting Master Servicer in the Collection Account
      maintained by such defaulting Master Servicer and any other account or fund
      maintained with respect to the Certificates or thereafter received with respect
      to the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer being terminated (or the Trust Fund,
      if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) as a
      result of an Event of Default shall bear all costs of a master servicing
      transfer, including but not limited to those of the Trustee reasonably allocable
      to specific employees and overhead, legal fees and expenses, accounting and
      financial consulting fees and expenses, and costs of amending the Agreement,
      if
      necessary.

    The
      Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Master Servicer (or by
      the
      Trust Fund, if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations
      hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer of master servicing from
      the predecessor Master Servicer, including, without limitation, any costs or
      expenses associated with the complete transfer of all master servicing data
      and
      the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be
      required by the Trustee to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the master
      servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee to master service the Mortgage
      Loans properly and effectively. If the terminated Master Servicer does not
      pay
      such reimbursement within thirty (30) days of its receipt of an invoice
      therefor, such reimbursement shall be an expense of the Trust Fund and the
      Trustee shall be entitled to withdraw such reimbursement from amounts on deposit
      in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 4.04(b); provided that the
      terminated Master Servicer shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any such expense
      incurred by the Trust Fund.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the termination of its activities as Master Servicer, each terminated Master
      Servicer shall continue to be entitled to reimbursement to the extent provided
      in Section 4.02(a)(i), (ii), (iii), (v), (vii) and (ix) to the extent such
      reimbursement relates to the period prior to such Master Servicer’s
      termination.

     

    If
      any
      Event of Default shall occur of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee
      has
      actual knowledge, the Trustee, shall promptly notify any NIMS Insurer, the
      Swap
      Counterparty and each Rating Agency of the nature and extent of such Event
      of
      Default. The Trustee shall immediately give written notice to the Master
      Servicer upon the Master Servicer’s failure to remit funds on the Deposit
      Date.

     

    (b)           On
      or after the time the Master Servicer (and the Trustee, if notice is sent by
      any
      NIMS Insurer) receives a notice of termination from the Trustee pursuant to
      Section 6.14(a) or the Trustee receives the resignation of the Master Servicer
      evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 9.28, the Trustee, within
      90 days of such notice unless another master servicer acceptable to the NIMS
      Insurer shall have been appointed, shall be the successor in all respects to
      the
      Master Servicer in its capacity as such under this Agreement and the
      transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall have all the rights
      and
      powers and be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
      relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Master Servicer hereunder,
      including the obligation to make Advances; provided, however, that any failure
      to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master Servicer’s
      failure to provide information required by this Agreement shall not be
      considered a default by the Trustee hereunder. In addition, the Trustee shall
      have no responsibility for any act or omission of the Master Servicer prior
      to
      the issuance of any notice of termination. The Trustee shall have no liability
      relating to the representations and warranties of the Master Servicer set forth
      in Section 9.14. In the Trustee’s capacity as such successor, the Trustee shall
      have the same limitations on liability herein granted to the Master Servicer.
      As
      compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to receive all compensation
      payable to the Master Servicer under this Agreement, including the Master
      Servicing Fee. The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Master
      Servicer (or by the Trust Fund if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill
      its
      obligations hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer of master
      servicing from the predecessor master servicer, including, without limitation,
      any costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer of all master
      servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such master
      servicing data as may be required by the Trustee to correct any errors or
      insufficiencies in the master servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee
      to master service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.

    (c)           Notwithstanding
      the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to continue to so act,
      or
      shall, if it is unable to so act or if any NIMS Insurer so requests in writing
      to the Trustee, request the Depositor to appoint, petition a court of competent
      jurisdiction to appoint, or appoint on its own behalf any established housing
      and home finance institution servicer, master servicer, servicing or mortgage
      servicing institution acceptable to the NIMS Insurer having a net worth of
      not
      less than $15,000,000 and meeting such other standards for a successor master
      servicer as are set forth in this Agreement, as the successor to such Master
      Servicer in the assumption of all of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities
      of a master servicer, like the Master Servicer hereunder. Any entity designated
      by the Trustee as a successor master servicer may be an Affiliate of the
      Trustee; provided, however, that, unless such Affiliate meets the net worth
      requirements and other standards set forth herein for a successor master
      servicer, the Trustee in its individual capacity shall agree, at the time of
      such designation, to be and remain liable to the Trust Fund for such Affiliate’s
      actions and omissions in performing its duties hereunder. In connection with
      such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for
      the
      compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and
      such
      successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be
      in
      excess of that permitted to the Master Servicer hereunder. The Trustee and
      such
      successor shall take such actions, consistent with this Agreement, as shall
      be
      necessary to effectuate any such succession and may make other arrangements
      with
      respect to the servicing to be conducted hereunder which are not inconsistent
      herewith. The Master Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee and any successor
      master servicer in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s
      responsibilities and rights hereunder including, without limitation, notifying
      Mortgagors of the assignment of the master servicing functions and providing
      the
      Trustee and successor master servicer, as applicable, all documents and records
      in electronic or other form reasonably requested by it to enable it to assume
      the Master Servicer’s functions hereunder and the transfer to the Trustee or
      such successor master servicer, as applicable, all amounts which shall at the
      time be or should have been deposited by the Master Servicer in the Collection
      Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to the
      Certificates or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.
      Neither the Trustee nor any other successor master servicer shall be deemed
      to
      be in default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in
      making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof caused by (i) the
      failure of the Master Servicer to deliver, or any delay in delivering, cash,
      documents or records to it, (ii) the failure of the Master Servicer to cooperate
      as required by this Agreement, (iii) the failure of the Master Servicer to
      deliver the Mortgage Loan data to the Trustee as required by this Agreement
      or
      (iv) restrictions imposed by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over
      the Master Servicer. No successor master servicer shall be deemed to be in
      default hereunder by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making,
      any
      distribution hereunder or any portion thereof caused by (i) the failure of
      the
      terminated Master Servicer to deliver, or any delay in delivering cash,
      documents or records to it, or (ii) the failure of the terminated Master
      Servicer to cooperate as required by this Agreement.

    During
      the continuance of any Event of Default, so long as such Event of Default shall
      not have been remedied, the Trustee, in addition to the rights specified in
      Section 6.14, shall have the right, in its own name and as trustee of an express
      trust, to take all actions now or hereafter existing at law, in equity or by
      statute to enforce its rights and remedies and to protect the interests, and
      enforce the rights and remedies, of any NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders
      (including the institution and prosecution of all judicial, administrative
      and
      other proceedings and the filings of proofs of claim and debt in connection
      therewith). Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement, no remedy
      provided for by this Agreement shall be exclusive of any other remedy, and
      each
      and every remedy shall be cumulative and in addition to any other remedy, and
      no
      delay or omission to exercise any right or remedy shall impair any such right
      or
      remedy or shall be deemed to be a waiver of any Event of Default.

    More
      than
      50% of the Aggregate Voting Interests of Certificateholders (with the consent
      of
      any NIMS Insurer) may waive any default or Event of Default by the Master
      Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder, except that a default
      in the making of any required deposit to the Certificate Account that would
      result in a failure of the Trustee to make any required payment of principal
      of
      or interest on the Certificates may only be waived with the consent of 100%
      of
      the affected Certificateholders and with the consent of any NIMS Insurer. Upon
      any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any
      Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for
      every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent
      or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent
      expressly so waived.

    Upon
      termination of the Master Servicer or appointment of a successor to the Master
      Servicer, in each case as provided herein, the Trustee shall promptly mail
      notice thereof by first class mail to the Certificateholders at their respective
      addresses appearing on the Certificate Register, the Swap Counterparty and
      any
      NIMS Insurer. The Trustee shall also, within 45 days after the occurrence of
      any
      Event of Default known to a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, give written
      notice thereof to any NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders, unless such
      Event
      of Default shall have been cured or waived prior to the issuance of such notice
      and within such 45 day period.

    Subject
      to the provisions of Section 8.01 hereof, during the continuance of any Event
      of
      Default, Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Class
      Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class of Certificates affected
      thereby may, with the consent of any NIMS Insurer, direct the time, method
      and
      place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee,
      or
      exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement;
      provided, however, that the Trustee shall be under no obligation to pursue
      any
      such remedy, or to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this
      Agreement (including, without limitation, (i) the conducting or defending of
      any
      administrative action or litigation hereunder or in relation hereto and (ii)
      the
      terminating of the Master Servicer or any successor master servicer from its
      rights and duties as master servicer hereunder) at the request, order or
      direction of any of the Certificateholders, or any NIMS Insurer, unless such
      Certificateholders, or any NIMS Insurer, shall have offered to the Trustee
      reasonable security or indemnity against the cost, expenses and liabilities
      which may be incurred therein or thereby; and, provided further, that, subject
      to the provisions of Section 8.01, the Trustee shall have the right to decline
      to follow any such direction if the Trustee, in accordance with an Opinion
      of
      Counsel, determines that the action or proceeding so directed may not lawfully
      be taken or if the Trustee in good faith determines that the action or
      proceeding so directed would involve it in personal liability for which it
      is
      not indemnified to its satisfaction or be unjustly prejudicial to the non
      assenting Certificateholders.

      Trustee shall give notice thereof to the Master Servicer and the Swap
      Counterparty. For all purposes of this Agreement, in the absence of actual
      knowledge by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee, the Trustee shall not be
      deemed to have knowledge of any failure of the Master Servicer or any other
      Event of Default unless notified in writing by the Depositor, the Master
      Servicer or the Certificateholders.

    (a)           The
      Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared on behalf of the Trust Fund,
      based
      upon information calculated in accordance with this Agreement pursuant to
      instructions given by the Depositor, and the Trustee shall file federal tax
      returns, all in accordance with Article X hereof. The Trustee shall prepare
      and
      file required state income tax returns and such other returns as may be required
      by applicable law relating to the Trust Fund, and, if required by state law,
      and
      shall file any other documents to the extent required by applicable state tax
      law (to the extent such documents are in the Trustee’s possession). The Trustee
      shall forward copies to the Depositor of all such returns and Form 1099
      supplemental tax information and such other information within the control
      of
      the Trustee as the Depositor may reasonably request in writing, and shall
      distribute to each Certificateholder such forms and furnish such information
      within the control of the Trustee as are required by the Code and the REMIC
      Provisions to be furnished to them, and will prepare and distribute to
      Certificateholders Form 1099 (supplemental tax information) (or otherwise
      furnish information within the control of the Trustee) to the extent required
      by
      applicable law. The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for any
      liability of or assessment against the Trustee resulting from any error in
      any
      of such tax or information returns directly resulting from errors in the
      information provided by such Master Servicer.

    (b)           The
      Trustee shall prepare and file with the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”), on
      behalf of each REMIC created hereby, an application on IRS Form SS-4. The
      Trustee, upon receipt from the IRS of the Notice of Taxpayer Identification
      Number Assigned for each REMIC, shall promptly forward copies of such notices
      to
      the Master Servicer and the Depositor. The Trustee will file an IRS Form 8811
      for all REMICs created hereunder. The Trustee shall have no obligation to verify
      the information in any Form 8811 or Form SS-4 filing.

     

    (c)           Reports
      Filed on Form 10-D.

     

    (i)           Within
      15 days after each Distribution Date (or, if applicable, within such shorter
      period of time as is required under the rules of the Commission as in effect
      from time to time (the “Rules”)), the Trustee shall prepare and file on behalf
      of the Trust Fund any Form 10-D required by the Exchange Act, in form and
      substance as required by the Exchange Act. The Trustee shall file each Form
      10-D
      with a copy of the related Distribution Date Statement attached thereto. Any
      disclosure in addition to the Distribution Date Statement that is required
      to be
      included on Form 10-D (“Additional Form 10-D Disclosure”) shall be determined
      and prepared by and at the direction of the Depositor pursuant to the following
      paragraph and the Trustee will have no duty or liability for any failure
      hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, except
      as
      set forth in the next paragraph.

     

    (ii)           As
      set forth on Exhibit Q-1 hereto, within five calendar days after the related
      Distribution Date, (A) certain parties to the Lehman XS Trust Mortgage
      Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-12N transaction shall be required to
      provide to the Trustee, to the extent known by a responsible officer thereof,
      in
      EDGAR-compatible form (which may be Word or Excel documents easily convertible
      to EDGAR format), or in such other form as otherwise agreed upon by the Trustee
      and such party, the form and substance of any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure,
      if applicable, and included with such Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, an
      Additional Disclosure Notification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit Q-4,
      (B) the Trustee shall forward to the Depositor, the form and substance of the
      Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, and (C) the Depositor will approve, as to
      form
      and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the
      Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D. The Sponsor will be responsible
      for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trustee in
      connection with including any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D
      pursuant to this paragraph.

     

    (iii)           After
      preparing the Form 10-D, the Trustee shall forward electronically a draft copy
      of the Form 10-D to the Exchange Act Signing Party for review and approval.
      If
      the Master Servicer is the Exchange Act Signing Party and the Form 10-D includes
      Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, then the Form 10-D shall also be electronically
      distributed to the Depositor for review and approval. No later than two Business
      Days prior to the 15th calendar day after the related Distribution Date, a
      senior officer of the Exchange Act Signing Party shall sign the Form 10-D and

      any
      loss, expense, damage, 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 Trustee’s inability or failure to obtain or 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

      related to the timely preparation and filing of Form 10-K is contingent upon
      such parties (and any Additional Servicer or Servicing Function Participant)

      under this Section 6.20(d), Section 9.25(a), Section 9.25(b) and Section 9.26.
      The Trustee 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 Trustee’s inability or
      failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other
      party hereto needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 10-K,
      not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful

      fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and
      any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain arising out
      of
      or based upon the engagement of any Subcontractor in violation of Section 6.01
      or any failure by the Trustee to deliver any assessment of compliance pursuant
      to Section 9.25(a). This indemnification shall survive the termination of this

    (a)           The
      respective obligations and responsibilities of the Trustee and the Master
      Servicer created hereby (other than the obligation of the Trustee to make
      payments to Certificateholders and the Swap Counterparty as set forth in Section
      7.02, the obligation of the Master Servicer to make a final remittance to the
      Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01, and the obligations of the Master Servicer
      to
      the Trustee pursuant to Sections 9.10 and 9.14) shall terminate on the earliest
      of (i) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan
      remaining in the Trust Fund and the disposition of all REO Property, (ii) the
      sale of the property held by the Trust Fund in accordance with Section 7.01(b)
      and (iii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date; provided, however, that in no
      event
      shall the Trust Fund created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years
      from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy,
      the
      late Ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James’s, living on the
      date hereof. Any termination of the Trust Fund shall be carried out in such
      a
      manner so that the termination of each REMIC included therein shall qualify
      as a
“qualified liquidation” under the REMIC Provisions.

    (b)           On
      any Distribution Date occurring on or after the Initial Optional Termination
      Date, the Master Servicer, with the prior written consent of any NIMS Insurer
      and the Seller, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, has the option
      to cause each of the MTA SWAP REMIC, the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC, REMIC 1 and
      REMIC 2 to adopt a plan of complete liquidation and to purchase the Mortgage
      Loans and any REO Property related to the Mortgage Pool (the “Pool Assets”) for
      a price equal to the Purchase Price, pursuant to Section 7.03 hereof. Upon
      exercise of such option, the property of the Mortgage Pool shall be sold to
      the
      Master Servicer at a price (the “Purchase Price”) equal to the sum of (i) 100%
      of the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan on the day of such
      purchase plus interest accrued thereon at the Mortgage Rate with respect to
      such
      Mortgage Loan to the Due Date in the Collection Period immediately preceding
      the
      Distribution Date on which the proceeds of such sale will be distributed to
      the
      holders of the Certificates, (ii) the fair market value of any REO Property
      related to the Mortgage Loans and any other property related to the Mortgage
      Loans held by any REMIC, such fair market value to be determined by an
      independent appraiser or appraisers mutually agreed upon by the Master Servicer,
      any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee (reduced, in the case of REO Property, by
      (1)
      reasonably anticipated disposition costs and (2) any amount by which the fair
      market value as so reduced exceeds the outstanding principal balance of the
      related Mortgage Loan plus interest accrued thereon at the applicable Net
      Mortgage Rate to the date of such purchase) and (iii) any unreimbursed Servicing
      Advances and other amounts to be reimbursed pursuant to the immediately
      following sentence related to the Mortgage Loans, and (iv) any Swap Termination
      Payment payable to the Swap Counterparty as a result of a termination pursuant
      to Section 7.01; provided, however, if there are any NIM Securities outstanding,
      the Master Servicer may only exercise its option after receiving the prior
      written consent of the holders of such NIM Securities and, if such consent
      is
      given, the Purchase Price shall also include an amount equal to the sum of
      (1)
      any accrued interest on the NIM Securities related to the Mortgage Loans, (2)
      the unpaid principal balance of any such NIM Securities and (3) any other
      reimbursable expenses owed by the issuer of the NIM Securities (the “NIM
      Redemption Amount”). If the Master Servicer fails to exercise such right, the
      NIMS Insurer will have the option to direct the Master Servicer to exercise
      such
      option so long as it is insuring the NIMS Securities or it is owed any amounts
      in connection with its guaranty of the NIM Securities. Following receipt of
      such
      notice from the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer shall advise the NIMS Insurer
      whether it will exercise the option under this Section 7.01(b) for its own
      account and using its own funds, or whether it will exercise such option in
      its
      own name but for the NIMS Insurer's account and utilizing the NIMS Insurer's
      funds. If the Master Servicer exercises such option for the NIMS Insurer's
      account, the NIMS Insurer will remit the Purchase Price to the Master Servicer
      one Business Day prior to the day the Master Servicer is required to remit
      the
      Purchase Price to the Trustee. Following its receipt from the NIMS Insurer
      of
      the entire Purchase Price and its subsequent remittance to the Trustee of the
      entire Purchase Price, the Master Servicer will convey to the NIMS Insurer
      all
      of the rights it receives from the Trustee with respect to the related Mortgage
      Loans as a result of such remittance. The Master Servicer, the Servicer, the
      Trustee and the Custodian shall be reimbursed from the Purchase Price for any
      Mortgage Loan or related REO Property for any Advances made or other amounts
      advanced with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are reimbursable to any such
      entity under this Agreement, the related Servicing Agreement or the related
      Custodial Agreement, together with any accrued and unpaid compensation and
      any
      other amounts due to the Master Servicer or the Trustee hereunder or the
      applicable Servicer or the applicable Custodian, to the extent such amounts
      relate to the Mortgage Loans. Subject to Section 7.03, the Trustee shall
      distribute the assets of the Trust Fund on the Distribution Date on which the
      repurchase occurred. If the NIMS Insurer directs the Master Servicer to exercise
      such right as described above, then (i) the Master Servicer shall cause each
      REMIC to adopt a plan of complete liquidation as described above and (ii) the
      NIMS Insurer shall remit the Purchase Price in immediately available funds
      to
      the Master Servicer at least three Business Days prior to the applicable
      Distribution Date and, upon receipt of such funds from the NIMS Insurer, the
      Master Servicer shall promptly deposit such funds in the Collection Account.
      The
      NIMS Insurer shall be obligated to reimburse the Master Servicer and the Trustee
      for their reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with the
      purchase of the Mortgage Loans and REO Property related to the Mortgage Pool
      at
      the direction of the NIMS Insurer and shall indemnify and hold harmless the
      Master Servicer and the Trustee for any losses, liabilities or expenses
      resulting from any claims directly resulting from or relating to the Master
      Servicer’s or Trustee’s purchase of the Pool Assets at the direction of the NIMS
      Insurer at the direction of the NIMS Insurer, except to the extent such losses,
      liabilities or expenses arise out of or result from the Master Servicer’s or
      Trustee’s, as the case may be, negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.
      Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, only an amount equal to the
      Purchase Price, reduced by the portion thereof consisting of any Swap
      Termination Payment (such portion, the “Swap Optional Termination Payment”),
      shall be made available for distribution to the Certificates. The Swap Optional
      Termination Payment shall be withdrawn by the Trustee from the Collection
      Account and remitted to the Supplemental Interest Trust for payment to the
      Swap
      Counterparty. The Swap Optional Termination Payment shall not be part of any
      REMIC and shall not be paid into any account which is part of any
      REMIC.

              Procedure
                Upon Termination of Trust Fund.

            


    

     

    (a)           Notice
      of any termination pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.01 (or the retirement
      of Certificates), specifying the Distribution Date upon which the final
      distribution shall be made, shall be given promptly by the Trustee by first
      class mail to the Certificateholders and any NIMS Insurer, mailed upon (x)
      no
      later than five Business Days after the Trustee has received notice from the
      Master Servicer of its intent to exercise its right to cause the termination
      of
      the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 7.01(b) (or the retirement of the
      Certificates ) or (y) upon final payment or other liquidation of the last
      Mortgage Loan or REO Property in the Trust Fund. Such notice shall specify
      (A)
      the Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the Certificates of
      all
      amounts required to be distributed to Certificateholders pursuant to Section
      5.02 will be made upon presentation and surrender of the related Certificates
      at
      the Corporate Trust Office, and (B) that the Record Date otherwise applicable
      to
      such Distribution Date is not applicable, distribution being made only upon
      presentation and surrender of the related Certificates at the office or agency
      of the Trustee therein specified. The Trustee shall give such notice to the
      Master Servicer, the Swap Counterparty and the Certificate Registrar at the
      time
      such notice is given to Holders of the related Certificates. The Master Servicer
      shall give notice to the Swap Counterparty on the date the Master Servicer
      elects its option pursuant to Section 7.01(b). Upon any termination pursuant
      to
      Section 7.01(b), the duties of the Certificate Registrar with respect to the
      applicable Certificates shall terminate and the Trustee shall terminate or
      request the Master Servicer to terminate, the Collection Account it maintains,
      the Certificate Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect
      to
      the related Certificates, subject to the Trustee’s obligation hereunder to hold
      all amounts payable to Certificateholders in trust without interest pending
      such
      payment.

     

    (b)           In
      the event that all of the Holders do not surrender their Certificates for
      cancellation within three months after the time specified in the above mentioned
      written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining
      Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive
      the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second
      notice any Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the
      Trustee may take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Certificateholders
      concerning surrender of such Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid
      out of the amounts distributable to such Holders. If within two years after
      the
      second notice any Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation,
      the Trustee shall, subject to applicable state law relating to escheatment,
      hold
      all amounts distributable to such Holders for the benefit of such Holders.
      No
      interest shall accrue on any amount held by the Trustee and not distributed
      to a
      Certificateholder due to such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its
      Certificate(s) for payment of the final distribution thereon in accordance
      with
      this Section.

    (c)           Any
      reasonable expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with any termination
      or liquidation of the Trust Fund (or a Mortgage Pool thereof) shall be
      reimbursed from proceeds received from the liquidation of the related Mortgage
      Pool or Mortgage Pools.

                Trust Fund Termination
                Requirements.

            


    

     

    Any
      sale
      pursuant to Section 7.01(b) shall be effected in accordance with the following
      additional requirements, unless the Trustee seeks (at the request of the party
      exercising the option to repurchase all of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to
      Section 7.01(b)), and subsequently receives, an Opinion of Counsel (at the
      expense of such requesting party), addressed to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer
      to the effect that the failure of the Trust Fund to comply with the requirements
      of this Section 7.03 will not (I) result in the imposition of taxes on any
      REMIC
      under the REMIC Provisions or (II) cause any REMIC established hereunder to
      fail
      to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
      outstanding:

     

    (i)           On
      the date specified for final payment of the Certificates, the Trustee shall
      make
      final distributions of principal and interest on the Certificates and shall
      pay
      any Swap Termination Payment owed to the Swap Counterparty on the related Swap
      Payment Date (to the extent not paid on previous Swap Payment Dates) in
      accordance with Section 5.02 and, after payment of, or provision for any
      outstanding expenses, distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed or
      credited, to the Holders of the Residual Certificates all cash on hand after
      such final payment (other than cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust
      Fund
      (and each REMIC) shall terminate at that time; 

     

    (ii)           In
      the case of a sale of assets:

     

    (A)           The
      Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the Mortgage Pool for cash and, within
      90 days of such sale, shall distribute the proceeds of such sale to the
      Certificateholders in complete liquidation of each REMIC; and

     

    (B)           The
      Trustee shall attach a statement to the final Federal income tax return for
      each
      REMIC stating that pursuant to Treasury Regulation § 1.860F-1, the first day of
      the 90-day liquidation period for each such REMIC was the date on which the
      Trustee sold such assets.

                Purchase Right of NIMS Insurer.

            


    

     

    The
      NIMS
      Insurer may purchase any Distressed Mortgage Loan for a purchase price equal
      to
      the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan, plus accrued interest
      thereon to the date of repurchase plus any unreimbursed Advances, Servicing
      Advances, Servicing Fees, General Servicing Fees or Trustee Fees and any
      unreimbursed expenses of the Trustee allocable to such Distressed Mortgage
      Loan.
      Any such purchase shall be accomplished by the NIM Insurer’s remittance of the
      purchase price for the Distressed Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer for
      deposit into the Collection Account.

                on Rights of Holders.

            


    

     

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

     

    (b)           No
      Certificateholder, solely by virtue of its status as Certificateholder, shall
      have any right by virtue or by availing of any provision of this Agreement
      to
      institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under
      or
      with respect to this Agreement, unless such Holder previously shall have given
      to the Trustee a written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance
      thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of Certificates
      evidencing not less than 25% of the Class Principal Amount or Class Notional
      Amount (or Percentage Interest) of Certificates of each Class affected thereby
      shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action,
      suit
      or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to
      the
      Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the cost, expenses
      and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for sixty
      days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall
      have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding
      and
      no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given such Trustee
      during such sixty day period by such Certificateholders; it being understood
      and
      intended, and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every
      other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of
      Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by
      availing of any provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice
      the
      rights of the Holders of any other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek
      to
      obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, or to enforce
      any
      right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the
      benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and enforcement of the
      provisions of this Section, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee
      shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in
      equity.

    (a)           If
      the Trustee is not acting as Certificate Registrar, the Certificate Registrar
      will furnish or cause to be furnished to the Trustee, within fifteen days after
      receipt by the Certificate Registrar of a request by the Trustee in writing,
      a
      list, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require, of the names and
      addresses of the Certificateholders of each Class as of the most recent Record
      Date.

     

    (b)           If
      three or more Holders or Certificate Owners (hereinafter referred to as
“Applicants”) apply in writing to the Trustee, and such application states that
      the Applicants desire to communicate with other Holders with respect to their
      rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and is accompanied by
      a
      copy of the communication which such Applicants propose to transmit, then the
      Trustee shall, within five Business Days after the receipt of such application,
      afford such Applicants reasonable access during the normal business hours of
      the
      Trustee to the most recent list of Certificateholders held by the Trustee or
      shall, as an alternative, send, at the Applicants’ expense, the written

      Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent or the Trustee shall
      be
      held accountable by reason of the disclosure of any such information as to
      the

      expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument
      or
      instruments are delivered to the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar and the
      Paying Agent and, where expressly required herein, to the Master Servicer.
      Such
      instrument or instruments (as the action embodies therein and evidenced thereby)
      are herein sometimes referred to as an “Act” of the Holders signing such
      instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of
      a
      writing appointing any such agents shall be sufficient for any purpose of this
      Agreement and conclusive in favor of the Trustee and the Master Servicer, if
      made in the manner provided in this Section. Each of the Trustee and the Master
      Servicer shall promptly notify the other of receipt of any such instrument
      by
      it, and shall promptly forward a copy of such instrument to the
      other.

     

    (b)           The
      fact and date of the execution by any Person of any such instrument or writing
      may be proved by the affidavit of a witness of such execution or by the
      certificate of any notary public or other officer authorized by law to take
      acknowledgments or deeds, certifying that the individual signing such instrument
      or writing acknowledged to him the execution thereof. Whenever such execution
      is
      by an officer of a corporation or a member of a partnership on behalf of such
      corporation or partnership, such certificate or affidavit shall also constitute
      sufficient proof of his authority. The fact and date of the execution of any
      such instrument or writing, or the authority of the individual executing the
      same, may also be proved in any other manner which the Trustee deems
      sufficient.

    (c)           The
      ownership of Certificates (whether or not such Certificates shall be overdue
      and
      notwithstanding any notation of ownership or other writing thereon made by
      anyone other than the Trustee) shall be proved by the Certificate Register,
      and
      none of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Paying Agent or the Depositor
      shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

     

    (d)           Any
      request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other
      action by the Holder of any Certificate shall bind every future Holder of the
      same Certificate and the Holder of every Certificate issued upon the
      registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof,
      in
      respect of anything done, omitted or suffered to be done by the Trustee or
      the
      Master Servicer in reliance thereon, whether or not notation of such action
      is
      made upon such Certificate.

    The
      Certificateholders, by their purchase and acceptance of the Certificates,
      appoint Aurora Loan Services LLC, as Master Servicer. For and on behalf of
      the
      Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall
      master service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this
      Agreement and the provisions of the Servicing Agreements.

                Policy.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a Master Servicer
      Fidelity Bond and a Master Servicer Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy,
      affording coverage with respect to all directors, officers, 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
      Master Servicer Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy and the Master Servicer
      Fidelity Bond shall be in such form and amount that would meet the requirements
      of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac if it were the purchaser of the Mortgage Loans,
      and
      if the Master Servicer receives notice that such policy is or shall be
      cancelled, it shall immediately notify the NIMs Insurer. The Master Servicer
      shall provide the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer upon request, with a copy of
      such
      policy and fidelity bond. The Master Servicer shall (i) require each Servicer
      to
      maintain an Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy and the Servicer Fidelity
      Bond
      in accordance with the provisions of the applicable Servicing Agreement, (ii)
      cause each Servicer to provide to the Master Servicer certificates evidencing
      that such policy and bond is in effect and to furnish to the Master Servicer
      any
      notice of cancellation, non-renewal or modification of the policy or bond
      received by it, as and to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing
      Agreement, and (iii) furnish copies of such policies and of the certificates
      and
      notices referred to in clause (ii) to the Trustee upon request. The Fidelity
      Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy may be obtained and maintained
      in
      blanket form.

    (b)           The
      Master Servicer shall promptly report to the Trustee any material changes that
      may occur in the Master Servicer Fidelity Bond or the Master Servicer Errors
      and
      Omissions Insurance Policy and shall furnish to the Trustee, on request,
      certificates evidencing that such bond and insurance policy are in full force
      and effect. The Master Servicer shall promptly report to the Trustee all cases
      of embezzlement or fraud, if such events involve funds relating to the Mortgage
      Loans. The total losses, regardless of whether claims are filed with the
      applicable insurer or surety, shall be disclosed in such reports together with
      the amount of such losses covered by insurance. If a bond or insurance claim
      report is filed with any of such bonding companies or insurers, the Master
      Servicer shall promptly furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee. Any
      amounts relating to the Mortgage Loans collected by the Master Servicer under
      any such bond or policy shall be promptly remitted by the Master Servicer to
      the
      Trustee for deposit into the Certificate Account. Any amounts relating to the
      Mortgage Loans collected by a Servicer under any such bond or policy shall
      be
      remitted to the Master Servicer to the extent provided in the applicable
      Servicing Agreement.

      notes and schedules and shall be in comparative form, certified by a nationally

    (a)           The
      Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full
      power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of
      Article X hereof, and each Servicer shall have full power and authority (to
      the
      extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) to do any and all things
      that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the servicing and
      administration of the Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power
      and
      authority (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and
      the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents,
      (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the
      Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds
      and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion
      of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each
      case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the applicable
      Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided that the Master Servicer shall
      not
      take, or knowingly permit any Servicer to take, any action that is inconsistent
      with or prejudices the 

    
      
        
        

      

      
        146

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    interests
      of the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan or the rights
      and interests of the Depositor, the Trustee, or the Certificateholders under
      this Agreement. The Master Servicer further is authorized and empowered by
      the
      Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name
      or
      in the name of any Servicer (to the extent permitted in the applicable Servicing
      Agreement), when the Master Servicer or a Servicer, as the case may be, believes
      it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan with MERS,
      or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS
      system, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the
      Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of assignment and
      other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording
      of
      a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee and its
      successors and assigns. The Master Servicer shall represent and protect the
      interests of the Trust Fund in the same manner as it protects its own interests
      in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding or litigation
      regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not make or knowingly permit any Servicer
      to
      make any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan
      that
      would cause an Adverse REMIC Event. Without limiting the generality of the
      foregoing, the Master Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Servicer,
      and
      each Servicer, to the extent such authority is delegated to such Servicer under
      the applicable Servicing Agreement, is hereby authorized and empowered by the
      Trustee when the Master Servicer or a Servicer, as the case may be, believes
      it
      appropriate in its best judgment and in accordance with Accepted Servicing
      Practices and the applicable Servicing Agreement, to execute and deliver, on
      behalf of itself and the Certificateholders, the Trustee or any of them, any
      and
      all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release
      or discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage
      Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. The Trustee shall execute,
      upon request, any powers of attorney furnished to it by the Master Servicer
      empowering the Master Servicer or such Servicer to execute and deliver
      instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release
      or
      discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property,
      and
      to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the Mortgage
      Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with the applicable Servicing
      Agreement and this Agreement, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such
      other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, necessary or appropriate
      to
      enable the Master Servicer to master service the Mortgage Loans and carry out
      its duties hereunder and to allow each Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans,
      in each case in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (and the Trustee
      shall have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master
      Servicer or the applicable Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee
      has
      been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is
      to
      be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Trustee or that the
      Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of
      such state if such action is taken in its name, then upon request of the Trustee
      the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee in the appointment of a co
      trustee pursuant to Section 6.09 hereof. In the performance of its duties
      hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an independent contractor and shall
      not,
      except in those instances where it is taking action in the name of the Trustee,
      be deemed to be the agent of the Trustee. Notwithstanding anything to the
      contrary, the Master Servicer shall not without the Trustee’s written consent:
      (i) initiate any action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name
      without indicating the Master Servicer’s representative capacity or (ii) take
      any action with the intent to cause, and which actually does cause, the Trustee
      to be registered to do business in any state.

    (b)           In
      master servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer
      shall
      employ procedures, and shall exercise the same care that it customarily employs
      and exercises master servicing and administering loans for its own account,
      giving due consideration to Accepted Servicing Practices where such practices
      do
      not conflict with this Agreement. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master
      Servicer may, and may permit the Servicer to, in its discretion (i) waive any
      late payment charge (but not any Prepayment Premium, except as set forth below)
      and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period
      not greater than 120 days; provided, however, that the maturity of any Mortgage
      Loan shall not be extended past the date on which the final payment is due
      on
      the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date. In the event of any
      extension described in clause (ii) above, the Master Servicer shall make or
      cause the applicable Servicer (if required by the related Servicing Agreement)
      to make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions
      of Section 5.04 on the basis of the amortization schedule of such Mortgage
      Loan
      without modification thereof by reason of such extension. Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not make
      or knowingly permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any material term
      of any Mortgage Loan unless: (1) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default
      by
      the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer
      or
      the applicable Servicer, reasonably foreseeable, (2) in the case of a waiver
      of
      a Prepayment Premium if (a) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default by
      the
      related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or
      Servicer, reasonably foreseeable, and such waiver would maximize recovery of
      total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Premium and
      the
      related Mortgage Loan or (b) if the prepayment is not the result of a
      refinancing by the Servicer or any of its Affiliates and (i) such Mortgage
      Loan
      is in default or default by the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment
      of the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer, reasonably foreseeable,
      and
      such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the
      value of such Prepayment Premium and the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) the
      collection of the Prepayment Premium would be in violation of applicable laws
      or
      (iii) the collection of such Prepayment Premium would be considered “predatory”
pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable federal,
      state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and having
      jurisdiction over such matters, and (3) the Master Servicer shall have provided
      or caused to be provided to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to
      the
      Trustee (which opinion shall, if provided by the Master Servicer, be an expense
      reimbursed from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 4.02(a)(v)) in
      writing to the effect that such modification, waiver or amendment would not
      cause an Adverse REMIC Event; provided, in no event shall an Opinion of Counsel
      be required for the waiver of a Prepayment Premium under clause (2)
      above.

    (a)           Each
      Servicing Agreement requires the applicable Servicer to service the Mortgage
      Loans in accordance with the provisions thereof. References in this Agreement
      to
      actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include actions taken or
      to
      be taken by a Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer. Any fees, costs,
      expenses and other amounts payable to such Servicer shall be deducted from
      amounts remitted to the Master Servicer by the Servicer to the extent permitted
      by the applicable Servicing Agreement and shall not be an obligation of the
      Trust Fund, the Trustee or the Master Servicer.

    (b)           The
      Master Servicer shall not be required to (i) take any action with respect to
      the
      servicing of any Mortgage Loan that the applicable Servicer is not required
      to
      take under the related Servicing Agreement and (ii) cause a Servicer to take
      any
      action or refrain from taking any action if the related Servicing Agreement
      does
      not require such Servicer to take such action or refrain from taking such
      action; in both cases notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement that
      requires the Master Servicer to take such action or cause such Servicer to
      take
      such action.

     

    (c)           The
      Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders,
      shall use its reasonable best efforts to enforce the obligations of each
      Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement, and shall, upon obtaining actual
      knowledge of the failure of a Servicer to perform its obligations in accordance
      therewith, to the extent that such non-performance of such obligations would
      have a material adverse effect on a Mortgage Loan, the Trust Fund or the
      Certificateholders, terminate the rights and obligations of such Servicer
      thereunder and either act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or cause
      the
      other parties hereto to enter into a Servicing Agreement (and such parties
      hereby agree to execute and deliver any such successor Servicing Agreement),
      with a successor Servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation,
      the
      legal prosecution of claims, termination of Servicing Agreements and the pursuit
      of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such
      an
      extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business
      judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The
      Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense,
      and
      shall be reimbursed therefor initially (i) from a general recovery resulting
      from such enforcement only to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds
      all
      amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans, (ii) from a specific
      recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom
      such enforcement is directed, and then, (iii) to the extent that such amounts
      are insufficient to reimburse the Master Servicer for the costs of such
      enforcement, from the Collection Account.

     

    (d)           The
      Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any certifications
      or
      other information provided by the Servicers under the terms of the applicable
      Servicing Agreement, in its preparation of any certifications, notifications,
      filings or reports, in accordance with the terms hereof or as may be required
      by
      applicable law or regulation.

    (a)           To
      the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer
      shall cause each Servicer to establish and maintain one or more custodial
      accounts at a depository institution (which may be a depository institution
      with
      which the Master Servicer or the Servicer establishes accounts in the ordinary
      course of its servicing activities), the accounts of which are insured to the
      maximum extent permitted by the FDIC (each, an “Escrow Account”) and to deposit
      therein any collections of amounts received with respect to amounts due for
      taxes, assessments, water rates, Standard Hazard Insurance Policy premiums,
      Payaheads, if applicable, or any comparable items for the account of the
      Mortgagors. Withdrawals from any Escrow Account may be made (to the extent
      amounts have been escrowed for such purpose) only in accordance with the
      Servicing Agreements. Each Servicer shall be entitled to all investment income
      not required to be paid to Mortgagors on any Escrow Account maintained by such
      Servicer. The Master Servicer shall make (or cause to be made) to the extent
      provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement advances to the extent necessary
      in order to effect timely payment of taxes, water rates, assessments, Standard
      Hazard Insurance Policy premiums or comparable items in connection with the
      related Mortgage Loan (to the extent that the Mortgagor is required, but fails,
      to pay such items), provided that it or the applicable Servicer has determined

      Loans
      may be added to the amount owing under the related Mortgage Note where the
      terms
      of the Mortgage Note so permit; provided, however, that the addition of any
      such
      cost shall not be taken into account for purposes of calculating the
      distributions to be made to Certificateholders. Such costs, to the extent that
      they are unanticipated, extraordinary costs, and not ordinary or routine costs
      shall be recoverable as a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer pursuant
      to
      Section 4.02.

              Termination
                of Servicing Agreements; Successor
                Servicers.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of
      any
      Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms
      and conditions of such Servicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue
      of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of termination of any
      Servicing Agreement by the Master Servicer or a related Servicer, the Master
      Servicer shall either act as Servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or provide
      for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by a successor Servicer to be appointed
      as provided in the related Servicing Agreement.

     

    The
      parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding sentence, there may
      be a
      transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect the transfer of
      servicing to a successor Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to
      be
      reimbursed from each Servicer (or by the Trust Fund, if such Servicer is unable
      to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer
      of servicing from the predecessor servicer, including without limitation, any
      costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data
      and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data, as may
      be
      required by the Master Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in
      the
      servicing data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer to service the
      Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.

     

    (b)           If
      the Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will not assume liability
      for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any, that it
      replaces. The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the successor
      Servicer assume liability for the representations and warranties made by the
      terminated Servicer in the related Servicing Agreement, and in the event of
      any
      such assumption by the successor Servicer, the Trustee or the Master Servicer,
      as applicable, may, in the exercise of its business judgment, release the
      terminated Servicer from liability for such representations and
      warranties.

     

    (c)           If
      the Master Servicer acts as a successor servicer, it will have no obligation
      to
      make an Advance if it determines in its reasonable judgment that such Advance
      is
      non-recoverable. To the extent that the Master Servicer is unable to find a
      successor servicer that is willing to service the Mortgage Loans for the
      Servicing Fee because of the obligation of the servicer to make Advances
      regardless of whether such Advance is recoverable, the applicable Servicing
      Agreement may be amended to provide that the successor servicer shall have
      no
      obligation to make an Advance if it determines in its reasonable judgment that
      such Advance is non-recoverable and provides an Officer’s Certificate to such
      effect to the Master Servicer and the Trustee.

    Notwithstanding
      any Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable
      to the Trustee and the Certificateholders in accordance with the provisions
      of
      this Agreement, to the extent of its obligations hereunder, without diminution
      of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Servicing Agreements. The
      Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the
      Mortgage Loans are serviced in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement
      and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of
      each
      Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Master
      Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with the Servicers for
      indemnification of the Master Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement
      shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. Except as expressly
      set
      forth herein, the Master Servicer shall have no liability for the acts or
      omissions of any Servicer in the performance by such Servicer of its obligations
      under the related Servicing Agreement.

    Any
      Servicing Agreement and any other transactions or services relating to the
      Mortgage Loans involving a Servicer in its capacity as such and not as an
      originator shall be deemed to be between such Servicer, the Seller and the
      Master Servicer, and the Trustee and the Depositor shall not be deemed parties
      thereto and shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to
      such Servicer except as set forth in Section 9.10 hereof, but shall have rights
      thereunder as third party beneficiaries.

    (a)           In
      the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master
      Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement),
      after a period not to exceed ninety days after the issuance of any notice of
      termination pursuant to Section 6.14 or Section 9.28, as applicable, the
      Trustee, or a successor master servicer appointed by it in accordance with
      Section 6.14, shall assume all of the rights and obligations of such Master
      Servicer hereunder and under each Servicing Agreement entered into with respect
      to the Mortgage Loans. The Trustee, its designee or any successor master
      servicer appointed by the Trustee shall be deemed to have assumed all of the
      Master Servicer’s interest herein and therein to the same extent as if such
      Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that the
      Master Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations
      of
      the Master Servicer under such Servicing Agreement accruing prior to its
      replacement as Master Servicer, and shall be liable to the Trustee, and hereby
      agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee from and against all costs,
      damages, expenses and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees)
      incurred by the Trustee as a result of such liability or obligations of the
      Master Servicer and in connection with the Trustee’s assumption (but not its
      performance, except to the extent that costs or liability of the Trustee are
      created or increased as a result of negligent or wrongful acts or omissions
      of
      the Master Servicer prior to its replacement as Master Servicer) of the Master
      Servicer’s obligations, duties or responsibilities thereunder; provided that the
      Master Servicer shall not indemnify or hold harmless the Trustee against
      negligent or willful misconduct of the Trustee.

    (b)           The
      Master Servicer that has been terminated shall, upon request of the Trustee
      but
      at the expense of such Master Servicer or at the expense of the Trust Fund,
      deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each
      Servicing Agreement and the related Mortgage Loans and an accounting of amounts
      collected and held by it and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the
      orderly and efficient transfer of each Servicing Agreement to the assuming
      party.

    (a)           To
      the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, to the extent
      Mortgage Loans contain enforceable due on sale clauses, and to the extent that
      the Master Servicer has knowledge of the conveyance of a Mortgaged Property,
      the
      Master Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to cause the Servicers
      to
      enforce such clauses in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
      If
      applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a due on sale clause or such clause
      is otherwise not enforced in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement,
      and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan is assumed, the original Mortgagor may
      be
      released from liability in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
      

     

    (b)           The
      Master Servicer or the related Servicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled
      to approve a request from a Mortgagor for the granting of an easement thereon
      in
      favor of another Person or any alteration or demolition of the related Mortgaged
      Property if it has determined, exercising its good faith business judgment
      in
      the same manner as it would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan,
      that the security for, and the timely and full collectability of, such Mortgage
      Loan would not be materially adversely affected thereby. Any fee collected
      by
      the Master Servicer or the related Servicer for processing such a request will
      be retained by the Master Servicer or such Servicer as additional servicing
      compensation.

    (a)           Upon
      (i) becoming aware of the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan or (ii) the
      receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been
      or will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer
      shall, or shall cause the applicable Servicer to, promptly notify the Trustee
      (or the applicable Custodian) by a certification (which certification shall
      include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with
      such payment that are required to be deposited in the Collection Account
      maintained by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof have been
      or
      will be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request (on the form
      attached hereto as Exhibit C or on the form attached to the applicable Custodial
      Agreement) the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, to deliver to the applicable
      Servicer the related Mortgage File; provided, however, that in lieu of sending
      a
      hard copy certification of a Servicing Officer, the Master Servicer may, or
      may
      cause the applicable Servicer to, deliver the request for release in a mutually
      agreeable electronic format, and to the extent that such a request, on its
      face,
      originates from a Servicing Officer, no original signature shall be required.
      Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee or the applicable
      Custodian, shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer
      and
      neither the Trustee nor such Custodian shall have any further responsibility
      with regard to such Mortgage File. Upon any such payment in full, the Master
      Servicer is authorized, and the applicable Servicer, to the extent such
      authority is provided for under the related Servicing Agreement, is authorized,
      to give, as agent for the Trustee, as the mortgagee under the Mortgage that
      secured the Mortgage Loan, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of
      mortgage without recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property subject to the
      Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be,
      shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt
      therefor of such payment, it being understood and agreed that no expenses
      incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment,
      as
      the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Collection Account.

    (b)           From
      time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage
      Loan and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the applicable
      Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall execute such documents as shall be
      prepared and furnished to the Trustee by the Master Servicer, or by the
      applicable Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and as are
      necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. The Trustee or the
      applicable Custodian, shall, upon request of the Master Servicer, or of the
      applicable Servicer, and delivery to the Trustee or such Custodian, of a trust
      receipt signed by a Servicing Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit
      C,
      release the related Mortgage File held in its possession or control to the
      Master Servicer (or the applicable Servicer). Such trust receipt shall obligate
      the Master Servicer or applicable Servicer to return the Mortgage File to the
      Trustee or the applicable Custodian, as applicable, when the need therefor
      by
      the Master Servicer or applicable Servicer no longer exists unless (i) the
      Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate
      of a Servicing Officer similar to that hereinabove specified, the trust receipt
      shall be released by the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, to the Master
      Servicer (or the applicable Servicer) or (ii) the Mortgage File has been
      delivered directly or through a Servicer to an attorney, or to a public trustee
      or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or
      pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged
      Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer has
      delivered directly or through a Servicer to the Trustee a certificate of a
      Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which
      such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose of such
      delivery.

      Master Servicer or by a Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which
      otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer or a Servicer as a Subsequent
      Recovery, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage

      Account the Master Servicing Fee, the General Servicing Fee and other amounts

      Servicing Agreement) cause each Servicer to, provide access to information
      and
      documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, its respective agents
      and accountants and to any NIMS Insurer, at any time upon reasonable request
      and
      during normal business hours, and to Certificateholders that are savings and
      loan associations, banks or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift
      Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of such Office
      and Corporation or examiners of any other federal or state banking or insurance

      fulfilling such a request the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for
      determining the sufficiency of such information. The Master Servicer shall
      afford the NIMS Insurer, and shall (to the extent provided in the Servicing
      Agreement) cause the Servicer to afford the NIMS Insurer, upon reasonable
      advance notice, during normal business hours access to all records related
      to
      their respective rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of
      the
      Master Servicer and the Servicer responsible for such obligations.

      Master Servicer, or any Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether
      from
      the collection of principal and interest payments or from a Subsequent Recovery,
      Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Master
      Servicer, or by such Servicer, for and on behalf of the Trustee and the
      Certificateholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property
      of
      the Trustee; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and each Servicer
      shall
      be entitled to setoff against, and deduct from, any such funds any amounts
      that
      are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer or such Servicer under
      this
      Agreement or the applicable Servicing Agreement and shall be authorized to
      remit
      such funds to the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement.

     

    (c)           The
      Master Servicer hereby acknowledges that concurrently with the execution of
      this
      Agreement, the Trustee shall own or, to the extent that a court of competent
      jurisdiction shall deem the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller
      to
      the Depositor not to constitute a sale, the Trustee shall have a security
      interest in the Mortgage Loans and in all Mortgage Files representing such
      Mortgage Loans and in all funds and investment property now or hereafter held
      by, or under the control of, a Servicer or the Master Servicer that are

      Mortgage Loans, whether as scheduled installments of principal and interest

      Recovery, Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds or otherwise, and in all
      proceeds of the foregoing and proceeds of proceeds (but excluding any fee or
      other amounts to which such Servicer is entitled under the applicable Servicing
      Agreement, or the Master Servicer or the Depositor is entitled to hereunder);
      and the Master Servicer agrees that so long as the Mortgage Loans are assigned
      to and held by the Trustee or the any Custodian, all documents or instruments
      constituting part of the Mortgage Files, and such funds relating to the Mortgage
      Loans which come into the possession or custody of, or which are subject to
      the
      control of, the Master Servicer or any Servicer shall be held by the Master
      Servicer or such Servicer for and on behalf of the Trustee as the Trustee’s
      agent and bailee for purposes of perfecting the Trustee’s security interest
      therein as provided by the applicable Uniform Commercial Code or other

      corporate action on the part of the Master Servicer;

     

    (ii)           the
      execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Master Servicer and its
      performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement will not (A) violate
      the Master Servicer’s charter or bylaws, (B) violate any law or regulation or
      any administrative decree or order to which it is subject or (C) constitute
      a
      default (or an event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would
      constitute a default) under, or result in the breach of, any material 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
      of
      the Master Servicer, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof,
      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
      Master Servicer is not a party to or bound by any agreement or instrument or
      subject to any charter provision, bylaw or any other corporate restriction
      or
      any judgment, order, writ, injunction, decree, law or regulation that may
      materially and adversely affect its ability as Master Servicer to perform its
      obligations under this Agreement or that requires the consent of any third
      person to the execution of this Agreement or the performance by the Master
      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;

     

    (vii)           the
      Master Servicer, or an Affiliate thereof the primary business of which is the
      servicing of conventional residential mortgage loans, is a Fannie Mae- or

    (viii)           no
      consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency

      and
      effect, and each of which provides at least such coverage as is required
      hereunder; and

     

    (xi)           the
      information about the Master Servicer under the heading “The Master Servicer” in
      the Offering Document relating to the Master Servicer does not include an untrue
      statement of a material fact and does not omit to state a material fact, with
      respect to the statements made, necessary in order to make the statements in
      light of the circumstances under which they were made not
      misleading.

     

    (b)           It
      is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth
      in
      this Section 9.14 shall survive the execution and delivery of this Agreement.
      The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor and the Trustee and hold
      them
      harmless against any loss, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees
      and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any
      claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting
      from, a breach of the Master Servicer’s representations and warranties contained
      in Section 9.14(a). It is understood and agreed that the enforcement of the
      obligation of the Master Servicer set forth in this Section to indemnify the
      Depositor and the Trustee as provided in this Section constitutes the sole
      remedy (other than as set forth in Section 6.14) 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 any of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, any
      NIMS
      Insurer or the Trustee or notice thereof by any one of such parties to the
      other
      parties. Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Master
      Servicer shall not be liable for special, indirect or consequential losses
      or
      damages of any kind whatsoever (including, but not limited to, lost
      profits).

     

    (c)           It
      is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties of the
      Depositor set forth in Sections 2.03(a)(i) through (vi) shall survive the
      execution and delivery of this Agreement. The Depositor shall indemnify the
      Master Servicer and hold each harmless against any loss, damages, penalties,
      fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and other costs
      and
      expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or
      grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach of the Depositor’s representations
      and warranties contained in Sections 2.03(a)(i) through (vi) hereof. It is
      understood and agreed that the enforcement of the obligation of the Depositor
      set forth in this Section to indemnify the Master Servicer as provided in this
      Section constitutes the sole remedy hereunder of the Master Servicer respecting
      a breach by the Depositor of the representations and warranties in Sections
      2.03(a)(i) through (vi) hereof.

     

    Any
      cause
      of action against the Depositor relating to or arising out of the breach of
      the
      representations and warranties made in Sections 2.03(a)(i) through (vi) hereof
      shall accrue upon discovery of such breach by either the Depositor or the Master
      Servicer or notice thereof by any one of such parties to the other
      parties.

      the

      Closing Date, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor

    For
      each
      Mortgage Loan (other than a Cooperative Loan), the Master Servicer shall
      maintain, or cause to be maintained by each Servicer, standard fire and casualty
      insurance and, where applicable, flood insurance, all in accordance with the
      provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as applicable. It
      is
      understood and agreed that such insurance shall be with insurers meeting the
      eligibility requirements set forth in the applicable Servicing Agreement and
      that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any
      Mortgagor or to be maintained on property acquired in respect of a defaulted
      loan, other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall
      at
      any time be in force and as shall require such additional
      insurance.

      Servicer, under any insurance policies maintained pursuant to this Section
      9.16
      or the applicable Servicing Agreement (other than amounts to be applied to
      the
      restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or
      released to the Mortgagor in accordance with such Servicing Agreement) shall
      be
      deposited into the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
      4.02. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or any Servicer in maintaining
      any such insurance if the Mortgagor defaults in its obligation to do so shall
      be
      added to the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan where the terms of the
      Mortgage Loan so permit; provided, however, that the addition of any such cost
      shall not be taken into account for purposes of calculating the distributions
      to
      be made to Certificateholders and shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer
      or
      such Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02.

    The
      Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer (to the extent provided in the
      applicable Servicing Agreement) to, prepare and present on behalf of the Trustee
      and the Certificateholders all claims under the Insurance Policies with respect
      to the Mortgage Loans, and take such actions (including the negotiation,
      settlement, compromise or enforcement of the insured’s claim) as shall be
      necessary to realize recovery under such policies. Any proceeds disbursed to
      the
      Master Servicer (or disbursed to the Servicer and remitted to the Master
      Servicer) in respect of such policies or bonds shall be promptly deposited
      in
      the Collection Account or any Custodial Account upon receipt, except that any
      amounts realized that are to be applied to the repair or restoration of the
      related Mortgaged Property or released to the related Mortgagor in accordance
      with the Master Servicer’s or the applicable Servicer’s normal servicing
      procedures need not be so deposited (or remitted).

                of the Primary Mortgage Insurance
                Policies.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Master Servicer shall not take, or knowingly permit any Servicer (consistent
      with the applicable Servicing Agreement) to take, any action that would result
      in noncoverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any
      loss which, but for the actions of such Master Servicer or such Servicer, would
      have been covered thereunder. To the extent that coverage is available, the
      Master Servicer shall use its best reasonable efforts to keep in force and
      effect, or to cause each Servicer to keep in force and effect (to the extent
      that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance),
      primary mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan in accordance with
      the provisions of this Agreement and the applicable Servicing Agreement, as
      applicable. The Master Servicer shall not, and shall not knowingly permit any
      Servicer to, cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance
      Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Certificates
      and is required to be kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the
      provisions of this Agreement and the applicable Servicing Agreement, as
      applicable.

     

    (b)           The
      Master Servicer agrees, to the extent provided in the related Servicing
      Agreement, to cause each Servicer to present, on behalf of the Trustee and
      the
      Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance
      Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be
      necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies
      respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to Section 4.01, any amounts
      collected by the Master Servicer or any Servicer under any Primary Mortgage
      Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to
      withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02.

    The
      Trustee (or the applicable Custodian) shall retain possession and custody of
      the
      originals of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies or certificate of insurance
      if applicable and any certificates of renewal as to the foregoing as may be
      issued from time to time as contemplated by this Agreement. Until all amounts
      distributable in respect of the Certificates have been distributed in full
      and
      the Master Servicer otherwise has fulfilled its obligations under this
      Agreement, the Trustee (or the applicable Custodian) shall also retain
      possession and custody of each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject
      to
      the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall promptly
      deliver or cause the applicable Servicer to deliver to the Trustee (or the
      applicable Custodian), upon the execution or receipt thereof the originals
      of
      the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and any certificates of renewal thereof,
      and such other documents or instruments that constitute portions of the Mortgage
      File that come into the possession of the Master Servicer or a Servicer from
      time to time.

                Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Master Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to, or to cause the
      applicable Servicer to, foreclose upon, repossess or otherwise comparably
      convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties securing such of the Mortgage
      Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory
      arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments, all in
      accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement. Alternatively, the Master
      Servicer may take, or authorize the applicable Servicer to take, other actions
      in respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan, which may include (i) accepting a
      short
      sale (a payoff of the Mortgage Loan for an amount less than the total amount
      contractually owed in order to facilitate a sale of the Mortgaged Property
      by
      the Mortgagor) or permitting a short refinancing (a payoff of the Mortgage
      Loan
      for an amount less than the total amount contractually owed in order to
      facilitate refinancing transactions by the Mortgagor not involving a sale of
      the
      Mortgaged Property), (ii) arranging for a repayment plan or (iii) agreeing
      to a
      modification in accordance with Section 9.04. In connection with such
      foreclosure or other conversion or action, the Master Servicer shall, consistent
      with Section 9.18, follow such practices and procedures as it shall reasonably
      determine to be in the best interests of the Trust Fund and the
      Certificateholders and which shall be consistent with its customary practices
      in
      performing its general mortgage servicing activities; provided that the Master
      Servicer shall not be liable in any respect hereunder if the Master Servicer
      is
      acting in connection with any such foreclosure or other conversion or action
      in
      a manner that is consistent with the provisions of this Agreement. Neither
      the
      Master Servicer, nor any Servicer, shall be required to expend its own funds
      or
      incur other reimbursable charges in connection with any foreclosure, or
      attempted foreclosure which is not completed, or toward the correction of any
      default on a related senior mortgage loan, or towards the restoration of any
      property unless it shall determine (i) that such restoration and/or foreclosure
      will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan to the
      Certificateholders after reimbursement to itself for such expenses or charges
      and (ii) that such expenses and charges will be recoverable to it through
      Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds (as provided in Section
      4.02).

    (b)           Notwithstanding
      the foregoing provisions of this Section 9.20 or any other provision of this
      Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer
      has
      received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any
      toxic
      or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer
      shall not, on behalf of the Trustee, either (i) obtain title to such Mortgaged
      Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or (ii)
      otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to,
      such
      Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, the Trust
      Fund or the Certificateholders would be considered to hold title to, to be
      a
“mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such
      Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental
      Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time,
      or any comparable law, unless the Master Servicer has obtained the prior written
      consent of the NIMS Insurer.

    The
      Master Servicer shall be entitled to withdraw from the Collection Account,
      subject to Section 5.05, the Master Servicing Fee to the extent permitted by
      Section 4.02. Servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, if any,
      late payment charges, as collected, if any, or otherwise (but not including
      any
      Prepayment Premium) shall be retained by the Master Servicer (or the applicable
      Servicer) and shall not be deposited in the Collection Account. If the Master
      Servicer does not retain or withdraw the Master Servicing Fee from the
      Collection Account as provided herein, the Master Servicer shall be entitled
      to
      direct the Trustee to pay the Master Servicing Fee to such Master Servicer
      by
      withdrawal from the Certificate Account to the extent that payments have been
      received with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer
      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. Pursuant to Section 4.01(e), all income and gain realized
      from any investment of funds in the Collection Account shall be for the benefit
      of the Master Servicer as compensation. The provisions of this Section 9.21
      are
      subject to the provisions of Section 6.14.

    (a)           In
      the event the Trust Fund acquires ownership of any REO Property in respect
      of
      any Mortgage Loan, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the
      Trustee, or to its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Master
      Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to sell, or cause the applicable
      Servicer, to the extent provided in the related Servicing Agreement, to sell
      any
      REO Property as expeditiously as possible and in accordance with the provisions
      of this Agreement and such Servicing Agreement, as applicable, but in all events
      within the time period, and subject to the conditions set forth in Article
      X
      hereof. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer
      shall protect and conserve, or cause the applicable Servicer to protect and
      conserve, such REO Property in the manner and to such extent required by the
      related Servicing Agreement, subject to Article X hereof.

     

    (b)           The
      Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited all funds collected
      and

              Notice
                to the Sponsor, the Depositor and the Trustee.

            


    

     

    (a)           The
      Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Trustee, the Sponsor and the Depositor
      (i) of any legal proceedings pending against the Master Servicer of the type
      described in Item 1117 (§ 229.1117) of Regulation AB.

     

    (b)           On
      or before March 1st
      of each
      year, the Depositor shall distribute the information in Exhibit S to the Master
      Servicer. If the Master Servicer shall become at any time an affiliate of any
      of
      the parties listed on Exhibit S hereto or any of their affiliates who have
      been
      identified to the Master Servicer in writing, the Master Servicer shall notify
      the Trustee, the Sponsor and the Depositor of such affiliation by March 15
      of
      each year (but only to the extent that the Master Servicer has not previously
      notified the Trustee, the Sponsor or the Depositor of such
      affiliation.)

     

    (c)           Not
      later than two Business Days prior to the Distribution Date of each month,
      the
      Master Servicer shall provide to the Trustee, the Sponsor and the Depositor
      notice of the occurrence of any material modifications, extensions or waivers
      of
      terms, fees, penalties or payments relating to the Mortgage Loans during the
      related Collection Period or that have cumulatively become material over time
      (Item 1121(a)(11) of Regulation AB) along with all information, data, and
      materials related thereto as may be required to be included in the related
      Distribution Report on Form 10-D, in each case solely as reported to the Master
      Servicer by the applicable Servicer. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge
      that the performance by the Master Servicer of its duties under this Section
      9.23(c) related to the timely preparation and delivery of such information
      is
      contingent upon each applicable Servicer strictly observing all requirements
      and
      deadlines in the performance of their duties under their related Servicing
      Agreements. The Master Servicer 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 deliver all such information where such failure results
      from the Master Servicer’s inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a
      timely basis, any information from any Servicer needed to prepare or deliver
      such information, which failure does not result from the Master Servicer’s own
      negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

      later than 30 days after each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall,

      have
      been certified by a Servicing Officer, setting forth the status of the
      Collection Account maintained by the Master Servicer as of the close of business
      on the related Distribution Date, indicating that all distributions required
      by
      this Agreement to be made by the Master Servicer have been made (or if any
      required distribution has not been made by the Master Servicer, specifying
      the
      nature and status thereof) and showing, for the period covered by such
      statement, the aggregate of deposits into and withdrawals from the Collection
      Account maintained by the Master Servicer. Copies of such statement shall be
      provided by the Master Servicer, upon request, to the Depositor, Attention:
      Contract Finance and to any Certificateholders (or by the Trustee at the Master
      Servicer’s expense if the Master Servicer shall fail to provide such copies to
      the Certificateholders (unless (i) the Master Servicer shall have failed to
      provide the Trustee with such statement or (ii) the Trustee shall be unaware
      of
      the Master Servicer’s failure to provide such statement)).

     

    (b)           Not
      later than two Business Days following each Distribution Date, the Master
      Servicer shall deliver to one Person designated by the Depositor, in a format
      consistent with other electronic loan level reporting supplied by the Master
      Servicer in connection with similar transactions, “loan level” information with
      respect to the Mortgage Loans as of the related Determination Date, to the
      extent that such information has been provided to the Master Servicer by the
      Servicers or by the Depositor.

     

    (c)           All
      information, reports and statements prepared by the Master Servicer under this
      Agreement shall be based upon information supplied to the Master Servicer by
      the
      Servicers without independent verification thereof and the Master Servicer
      shall
      be entitled to rely on such information.

     

    (d)           The
      Master Servicer shall provide the Trustee with such information as the Trustee
      may reasonably request in connection with its responsibilities under Section

    (b)           Attestation
      Reports

     

    (i)           On
      or before March 15th of each calendar year in which the Depositor is required
      to
      file reports with respect to the Trust Fund in accordance with the Exchange

      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

      Person to the Master Servicer shall be a Person that shall be qualified and
      approved to service mortgage loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and shall
      have

    Except
      as
      otherwise provided in Sections 9.27 and 9.29 hereof, the Master Servicer shall
      not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it unless it or
      the
      Trustee determines that 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 and the NIMS Insurer. No such resignation shall become
      effective until a period of time not to exceed 90 days after the Trustee and
      the
      NIMS Insurer receives written notice thereof from the Master Servicer and until
      the Trustee shall have assumed, or a successor master servicer shall have been
      appointed by the Trustee, such successor master servicer being acceptable to
      the
      NIMS Insurer, and until such successor 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.

    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
      hereunder; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall have the right
      without the prior written consent of the Trustee or the Depositor to delegate
      or
      assign to or subcontract with or authorize or appoint an Affiliate of the Master
      Servicer to perform and carry out any duties, covenants or obligations to be
      performed and carried out by the Master Servicer hereunder. In no case, however,
      shall any such delegation, subcontracting or assignment to an Affiliate of
      the
      Master Servicer relieve the Master Servicer of any liability 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 amount of the Master Servicing Fees and other compensation payable to
      the
      Master Servicer pursuant hereto, including amounts payable to or permitted
      to be
      retained or withdrawn by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 9.21 hereof,
      shall thereafter be payable to such successor master servicer.

     

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing, for so long as reports are required to be filed with the
      Commission under the Exchange Act with respect to the Trust, the Master Servicer
      shall not utilize any Subcontractor for the performance of its duties hereunder
      if such Subcontractor would be “participating in the servicing function” within
      the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB without (a) giving notice to the
      Trustee and the Depositor and (b) requiring any such Subcontractor to provide
      to
      the Master Servicer an attestation report as provided for in Section 9.25(b)
      and
      an assessment report as provided in Section 9.25(a), which reports the Master
      Servicer shall include in its attestation and assessment reports.

      provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Master Servicer
      from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act

      its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that the duties and obligations
      of the Master Servicer shall be determined solely by the express provisions
      of

      performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in
      this
      Agreement; no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement
      against the Master Servicer and, in absence of bad faith on the part of the

      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, the Seller, any NIMS Insurer or the
      Depositor or any such person against any liability that would otherwise be
      imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in its
      performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard for its obligations
      and duties under this Agreement. The Master Servicer, the Seller, any NIMS
      Insurer and the Depositor and any director, officer, employee or agent of any
      of
      them shall be entitled to indemnification by the Trust Fund and will be held
      harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with
      any
      legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates other than any
      loss,
      liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or
      negligence in the performance of his or its duties hereunder or by reason of
      reckless disregard of his or its obligations and duties hereunder. The Master
      Servicer, the Seller, any NIMS Insurer and the Depositor and any director,
      officer, employee or agent of any of them 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 Master Servicer shall be under no obligation
      to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to
      its
      duties to master service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with 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 expenses, costs
      and
      liabilities of the Trust Fund and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to
      be
      reimbursed therefor out of the Collection Account it maintains as provided
      by
      Section 4.02.

              Indemnification;
                Third Party Claims.

            


    

     

    The
      Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor, the Certificate
      Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Trustee (and each of their respective
      directors, officers, employees and agents) and hold each of them harmless
      against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable
      legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, liability, fees
      and expenses that the Depositor, the Sponsor, the Certificate Registrar, the
      Paying Agent or the Trustee may sustain as a result of (a)
      any
      material breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations hereunder,
      including particularly its obligations to provide any report under Section
      9.25(a), Section 9.25(b) or Section 9.26 or any information, data or materials
      required to be included in any Exchange Act report, provided, however, that
      in
      no event shall the Master Servicer be liable for any special, consequential,
      indirect or punitive damages pursuant to this Section 9.31, even if advised
      of
      the possibility of such damages, (b) any material misstatement or omission
      on
      any information, data, or materials provided by the Master Servicer, or (c)
      the
      negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Master Servicer in connection
      with its performance hereunder. The Depositor, the Sponsor,
      the
      Certificate Registrar, the Paying Agent and the Trustee shall immediately notify
      the Master Servicer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this
      Agreement or the Mortgage Loans entitling the Depositor, the Sponsor or the
      Trustee to indemnification hereunder, whereupon the Master Servicer shall assume
      the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith,
      including counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment
      or
      decree which may be entered against it or them in respect of such claim. This
      indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the
      termination of the Master Servicer as a party to this Agreement.

      of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, a
      Special Servicer to special service any Distressed Mortgage Loans. Any
      applicable Termination Fee related to the termination of the Servicer and the
      appointment of any Special Servicer shall be paid by the Seller. Any fees paid
      to any such Special Servicer shall not exceed the applicable Servicing Fee

      (or, with respect to the GMACM Transferred Mortgage Loans, the General Servicing
      Fee Rate).

    (a)           REMIC
      elections as set forth in the Preliminary Statement and this Section 10.01
      shall
      be made on Forms 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return
      for
      the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the
      Certificates are issued. The regular interests and residual interest in each
      REMIC shall be as designated in the Preliminary Statement and this Section
      10.01. For purposes of such designations, the interest rate of any regular
      interest that is computed by taking into account the weighted average of the
      Net
      Mortgage Rates of the Mortgage Loans shall be reduced to take into account
      any
      expense paid by the Trust to the extent that (i) such expense was not taken
      into
      account in computing the Net Mortgage Rate of any Mortgage Loan, (ii) such
      expense does not constitute an “unanticipated expense” of a REMIC within the
      meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) and (iii) the amount
      of such expense was not taken into account in computing the interest rate of
      a
      more junior Class of regular interests.

    (b)           The
      Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each REMIC within the
      meaning of section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The latest possible maturity date
      for
      purposes of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-1(a)(4) will be the Latest Possible
      Maturity Date.

     

    (c)           The
      Trustee shall represent the Trust Fund in any administrative or judicial
      proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing
      authority with respect thereto. The Trustee shall pay any and all tax related
      expenses (not including taxes) of each REMIC and Grantor Trust, including but
      not limited to any professional fees or expenses related to audits or any
      administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to such REMIC or Grantor
      Trust that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities, but
      only to the extent that (i) such expenses are ordinary or routine expenses,
      including expenses of a routine audit but not expenses of litigation (except
      as
      described in (ii)); or (ii) such expenses or liabilities (including taxes and
      penalties) are attributable to the negligence or willful misconduct of the
      Trustee in fulfilling its duties hereunder (including its duties as tax return
      preparer). The Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Certificate
      Account of the expenses to the extent (x) provided in clause (i) above and
      (y)
      with respect to each REMIC, such expenses are “unanticipated expenses” within
      the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii). Any reimbursement
      described in the preceding sentence shall be allocated and limited to
      collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Pool and shall be
      accounted for in such manner.

     

    (d)           The
      Trustee shall prepare, the Trustee shall sign, and the Trustee will file, all
      of
      each REMIC’s federal and state tax and information returns as such REMIC’s
      direct representative. The Trustee shall prepare, sign and file all of the
      tax
      or information returns in respect of each Grantor Trust. The Trustee shall
      comply with such requirement by filing Form 1041. The expenses of preparing
      and
      filing such returns shall be borne by the Trustee.

     

    (e)           The
      Trustee or its designee shall perform on behalf of the Trust Fund and each
      REMIC
      and Grantor Trust all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the
      responsibility of the Trust Fund or such REMIC or Grantor Trust under the Code,
      the REMIC Provisions, or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal
      Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority. Among its other duties,
      if required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other such guidance, the
      Trustee shall provide (i) to the Treasury or other governmental authority such
      information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the
      transfer of a Residual Certificate to any disqualified person or organization
      pursuant to Treasury Regulation 1.860E-2(a)(5) and any person designated in
      Section 860E(e)(3) of the Code and (ii) to the Certificateholders such
      information or reports as are required by the Code or REMIC
      Provisions.

     

    (f)           The
      Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Holders of Certificates shall take any
      action, within their respective control and scope of their duties, or cause
      any
      REMIC to take any action necessary to create or maintain the status of any
      REMIC
      as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and shall assist each other as necessary
      to create or maintain such status. Neither the Trustee, the Master Servicer
      nor
      the Holder of any Residual Certificate shall knowingly take any action, cause
      any REMIC to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken)
      any
      action, within their respective control and scope of their duties, that, under
      the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could result
      in
      an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Master
      Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party
      seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will
      not
      result in an Adverse REMIC Event. In addition, prior to taking any action with
      respect to any REMIC or the assets therein, or causing any REMIC to take any
      action, which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement,
      any
      Holder of a Residual Certificate will consult with the Trustee, the NIMS
      Insurer, the Master Servicer or their respective designees, in writing, with
      respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur
      with
      respect to any REMIC, and no such Person shall take any such action or cause
      any
      REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or
      the
      Master Servicer has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could
      occur.

    (g)           Each
      Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due any and all taxes imposed
      on
      the related REMIC by federal or state governmental authorities. To the extent
      that such taxes are not paid by a Residual Certificateholder, the Trustee shall
      pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of current or future amounts otherwise
      distributable to the Holder of the Residual Certificate in any such REMIC or,
      if
      no such amounts are available, out of other amounts held in the Collection
      Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise payable to holders of regular
      interests in any such REMIC, as the case may be.

     

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

     

    (i)           No
      additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC, except as
      expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to Qualifying Substitute
      Mortgage Loans.

     

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

     

    (k)           Upon
      the request of any Rating Agency or any NIMS Insurer, the Trustee shall deliver
      an Officer’s Certificate to the Rating Agency and to the NIMS Insurer stating,
      without regard to any actions taken by any party other than the Trustee, the
      Trustee’s compliance with provisions of this Section 10.01.

     

    (l)           The
      Class P Certificates shall be neither regular interests nor residual interests
      in any REMIC created hereunder. It is the intention of the parties hereto that
      the segregated pool of assets consisting of any collections of Prepayment
      Premiums related to the Mortgage Loans shall constitute a grantor trust for
      federal income tax purposes. The Trustee, by its execution and delivery hereof,
      acknowledges the assignment to it of the rights to receive such Prepayment
      Premiums and declares that it holds and will hold such assets in trust for
      the
      exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Holders of the Class P
      Certificates. The rights of Holders of the Class P Certificates to receive
      distributions from the proceeds of such Prepayment Premiums, and all ownership
      interests of such Holders in and to such distributions, shall be as set forth
      in
      this Agreement.

     

    (m)           The
      MTA SWAP REMIC shall consist of all of the assets of the Trust Fund (other
      than
      (i) the Lower Tier Interests, (ii) the grantor trusts described in Section
      10.01
      hereof, (iii) the rights to receive Prepayment Premiums distributable to the
      Class P Certificates, (iv) the Basis Risk Reserve Fund, (v) the Swap Agreements,
      (vi) the Supplemental Interest Trust, (vii) the Cap Agreements, (viii) the
      Cap
      Agreement Account, (ix) the Capitalized Interest Account and (x) the Class
      X
      Account. The MTA SWAP REMIC Regular Interests shall be designated as the regular
      interests in the MTA SWAP REMIC, and the Class MTASW-R Interest shall be
      designated as the sole Class of residual interest in the MTA SWAP REMIC. Each
      of
      the MTA SWAP REMIC Regular Interests shall have the characteristics set forth
      in
      the Preliminary Statement.

    The
      Fixed
      Rate SWAP REMIC shall consist of the MTA SWAP REMIC Regular Interests. The
      Fixed
      Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests shall be designated as the regular interests
      in the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC, and the Class FIXSW-R Interest shall be designated
      as the sole Class of residual interest in the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC. Each of
      the
      Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests shall have the characteristics set
      forth
      in the Preliminary Statement.

     

    REMIC
      1
      shall consist of the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests. The REMIC 1
      Regular Interests shall be designated as the regular interests in REMIC 1,
      and
      the Class LT1-R Interest shall be designated as the sole Class of residual
      interest in REMIC 1. Each of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests shall have the
      characteristics set forth in the Preliminary Statement.

     

    The
      assets of REMIC 2 shall be the REMIC 1 Regular Interests. The REMIC 2 Regular
      Interests shall be designated as the regular interests in REMIC 2 and the
      Residual Interest shall be designated as the sole Class of residual interest
      in
      REMIC 2. For federal income tax purposes, the interest rate on each REMIC 2
      Regular Interest (other than (i) the Uncertificated Class X Interest, (ii)
      the
      Class LT2-MTAIO Interest and (iii) the Class LT2-FIXIO Interest) shall be
      subject to a cap equal to the REMIC Pass-Through Rate.

     

    The
      beneficial ownership of the Class MTASW-R Interest, the Class FIXSW-R Interest,
      the Class LT1-R Interest and the Residual Interest shall be represented by
      the
      Class R Certificate. None of the Class MTASW-R Interest, the Class FIXSW-R
      Interest, the Class LT1-R Interest and the Residual Interest shall have a
      principal balance or bear interest.

     

    (n)           It
      is intended that the rights of each Class of LIBOR Certificates to receive
      payments in respect of Excess Interest shall be treated as a right in interest
      rate cap contracts written by the holders of the Class X Certificates in favor
      of the holders of each Class of the LIBOR Certificates and such shall be
      accounted for as property held separate and apart from the regular interests
      in
      REMIC 2 held by the holders of the LIBOR Certificates. This provision is
      intended to satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(i)
      for the treatment of property rights coupled with REMIC interests to be
      separately respected and shall be interpreted consistently with such regulation.
      On each Distribution Date, to the extent that any of the LIBOR Certificates
      receive payments in respect of Excess Interest, such amounts, to the extent
      not
      derived from payments on the Cap Agreements , from payments on the Swap
      Agreements, from amounts in the Capitalized Interest Account or from payments
      in
      respect of Class X Shortfalls as set forth in Section 10.01(p), will be treated
      as distributed by REMIC 2 to the Class X Certificates in
      respect of the Uncertificated Class X Interest pro
      rata
      and then
      paid to the relevant Class of Certificates pursuant to the related interest
      cap
      agreement. The Trustee is hereby directed to perform its duties and obligations
      in accordance with this Section 10.01(n).

    It
      is
      intended that the beneficial owners of the LIBOR Certificates shall be treated
      as having entered into a notional principal contract with respect to the
      beneficial owners of the Class X Certificates. Pursuant to each such notional
      principal contract, all beneficial owners of the LIBOR Certificates shall be
      treated as having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the beneficial
      owners of the Class X Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess,
      if
      any, of (i) the amount payable on such Distribution Date on the Related REMIC
      2
      Interest corresponding to such Class of LIBOR Certificates over (ii) the amount
      payable on such Class of LIBOR Certificates on such Distribution Date
      (disregarding any amount payable from the Capitalized Interest Account or in
      respect of the Cap Agreements) (such excess, a “Class I Shortfall”). A Class I
      Shortfall shall be allocated to each Class of LIBOR Certificates to the extent
      that interest accrued on such Class for the related Accrual Period at the
      Certificate Interest Rate for a Class, computed by substituting “REMIC
      Pass-Through Rate” for the Net Funds Cap set forth in the definition thereof,
      exceeds the amount of interest payable on such Certificate for the related
      Accrual Period (disregarding any amount payable from the Capitalized Interest
      Account or in respect of the Cap Agreements), 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 X Certificates shall be treated as having agreed
      to make payments in respect of Excess Interest to the beneficial holders of
      the
      LIBOR Certificates in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any payments
      to the Certificates in light of the foregoing shall not be payments with respect
      to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section
      860G(a)(1). However, any payment by beneficial owners of LIBOR Certificates
      of a
      Class I Shortfall shall be treated for tax purposes as having been received
      by
      the beneficial owners of such Certificates in respect of their interests in
      the
      REMIC 2 and as having been paid by such beneficial owners to the Class X
      Certificates pursuant to the notional principal contract. Thus, each LIBOR
      Certificate and each Class X Certificate shall be treated as representing not
      only ownership of regular interests in REMIC 2, but also ownership of an
      interest in (and obligations with respect to) a notional principal
      contract.

     

    It
      is
      intended that the rights of the Class 1-A2A1 Certificates and Class 1-A3A1A
      Certificates to receive payments in respect of the related Cap Agreement shall
      be treated as a right in interest rate cap contracts written by the Cap Provider
      in favor of the holders of the Class 1-A2A1 Certificates and Class 1-A3A1A
      Certificates and such shall be accounted for as property held separate and
      apart
      from the regular interests in REMIC 2 held by the holders of the Class 1-A2A1
      Certificates and Class 1-A3A1A Certificates. This provision is intended to
      satisfy the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(i) for the
      treatment of property rights coupled with REMIC interests to be separately
      respected and shall be interpreted consistently with such regulation. The
      Trustee is hereby directed to perform its duties and obligations in accordance
      with this Section 10.01(n).

     

    It
      is
      intended that the rights of each Class of LIBOR Certificates to receive payments
      from the Capitalized Interest Account shall be treated as a right in interest
      rate cap contracts written by the Depositor in favor of the holders of each
      Class of the LIBOR Certificates and such shall be accounted for as property
      held
      separate and apart from the regular interests in REMIC 2 held by the holders
      of
      the LIBOR Certificates. This provision is intended to satisfy the requirements
      of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(i) for the treatment of property rights
      coupled with REMIC interests to be separately respected and shall be interpreted
      consistently with such regulation. The Trustee is hereby directed to perform
      its
      duties and obligations in accordance with this Section 10.01(n).

    (o)           The
      parties hereto intend that the Uncertificated Class X Interest, the Swap
      Agreements , the Supplemental Interest Trust, the uncertificated Class LT2-MTAIO
      Interest, the uncertificated Class LT2-FIXIO Interest, the right to receive
      payments in respect of Class I Shortfalls from the holders of the LIBOR
      Certificates, the Basis Risk Reserve Fund, the right to receive payments in
      respect of Class X Shortfalls as set forth in Section 10.01(p) and the
      obligation of the holders of the Class X Certificates to pay amounts of Excess
      Interest to the holders of the LIBOR Certificates shall be treated as a “grantor
      trust” under the Code, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted
      consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, the Trustee
      shall (i) furnish or cause to be furnished to the holders of the Class X
      Certificates information regarding their allocable share, if any, of the income
      with respect to such grantor trust, (ii) file or cause to be filed with the
      Internal Revenue Service Form 1041 (together with any necessary attachments)
      and
      such other forms as may be applicable and (iii) comply with such information
      reporting obligations with respect to payments from such grantor trust to the
      holders of LIBOR Certificates as may be applicable under the Code. The Trustee
      is hereby directed to perform its duties and obligations in accordance with
      this
      Section 10.01(o).

     

    The
      parties intend that all amounts paid to the Swap Counterparty under the MTA
      Swap
      Agreement shall be deemed for federal income tax purposes to be paid by the
      Class X Certificates first, out of funds deemed received in respect of the
      Class
      LT2-MTAIO Interest, second, out of funds deemed received in respect of the
      Uncertificated Class X Interest and third, out of funds deemed received in
      respect of Class I Shortfalls described in Section 10.01(n), and the provisions
      hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. 

     

    The
      parties intend that all amounts paid to the Swap Counterparty under the Fixed
      Rate Swap Agreement shall be deemed for federal income tax purposes to be paid
      by the Class X Certificates first, out of funds deemed received in respect
      of
      the Class LT2-FIXIO Interest, second, out of funds deemed received in respect
      of
      the Uncertificated Class X Interest and third, out of funds deemed received
      in
      respect of Class I Shortfalls described in Section 10.01(n), and the provisions
      hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. 

     

    The
      Supplemental Interest Trust shall be an “outside reserve fund” for federal
      income tax purposes and not an asset of any REMIC. Furthermore, the Holders
      of
      the Class X Certificates shall be the beneficial owners of the Supplemental
      Interest Trust for all federal income tax purposes, and shall be taxable on
      all
      income earned thereon.

     

    (p)           The
      excess, if any, of amounts payable with respect to the REMIC regular interests
      held by REMIC 2 over the amounts payable with respect to the REMIC 2 Regular
      Interests with respect to each Accrual Period shall, solely for purposes of
      the
      REMIC Provisions, be deemed earned by the Master Servicer as an additional
      fee,
      which amount shall be deemed paid by the Master Servicer to the holders of
      the
      Class X Certificates. It is intended that the rights of the holders of the
      Class
      X Certificates to receive such deemed payments (“Class X Shortfalls”) shall be
      treated as rights in respect of an interest rate cap contract written by the
      Master Servicer in favor of the holders of the Class X Certificates and shall
      be
      accounted for as property separate and apart from any REMIC regular interest
      represented by the Class X Certificates. This provision is intended to comply
      with the requirements of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(i) for the
      treatment of property rights coupled with regular interests to be separately
      respected and shall be interpreted consistently with such regulation. The
      holders of the Class X Certificates agree by their acceptance of such
      Certificates, that they will take tax reporting positions that allocate no
      more
      than a nominal value to the right to receive deemed payments in respect of
      Class
      X Shortfalls. The Master Servicer and Trustee shall agree to take tax reporting
      positions consistent with the allocations by the holders of the Class X
      Certificates of no more than a nominal value to the right to receive deemed
      payments in respect of Class X Shortfalls. For information reporting purposes,
      it will be assumed that such rights have no value. Each payment deemed made
      to
      the Class X Certificates in respect of Class X Shortfalls shall be treated
      for
      federal income tax purposes or having been paid to the Master Servicer as an
      additional servicing fee and then paid by the Master Servicer to the Holders
      of
      the Class X Certificates. The Trustee and Master Servicer agree and each holder
      or beneficial owner of a Class X Certificate agrees, by virtue of its
      acquisition of such Certificate or beneficial interest, to adopt tax reporting
      positions consistent with the payments deemed made to the Class X Certificates
      in respect of Class X Shortfalls as payments in respect of interest rate cap
      agreements written by the Master Servicer. The Trustee is hereby directed to
      perform its duties and obligations in accordance with this Section
      10.01(p).

    (q)           Payments
      in the nature of expenses, reimbursements and indemnifications made from the
      Trust Fund shall be allocated and limited to collections or other recoveries
      on
      the related Mortgage Pool or Mortgage Pools (if applicable) and shall be
      accounted for in such manner.

     

    (r)           The
      Trustee shall treat the Class X Account as an outside reserve fund within the
      meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h) that is owned by the Holder of the
      Class C Certificates and that is not an asset of any REMIC.

     

    (s)           The
      MTA SWAP REMIC:
      On each
      Distribution Date, the Trustee shall first pay or charge as an expense of the
      MTA SWAP REMIC all expenses of the Trust Fund for such Distribution Date, other
      than any Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment required to be made from
      the Trust Fund.

     

    On
      each
      Distribution Date the Trustee shall distribute the aggregate Interest Remittance
      Amount (net of expenses described in the preceding paragraph) with respect
      to
      each of the MTA SWAP REMIC Regular Interests based on the interest rates for
      such interests set forth in the Preliminary Statement hereto.

     

    On
      each
      Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute the aggregate Principal
      Remittance Amount with respect to the MTA SWAP REMIC Regular Interests, first
      to
      the Class MTASW-Z Interest until its principal balance is reduced to zero,
      and
      then sequentially, to the other MTA SWAP REMIC Regular Interests in ascending
      order of their numerical Class designation, and, with respect to each pair
      of
      Classes having the same numerical designation, in equal amounts to each such
      Class, until the principal balance of each such Class is reduced to zero. All
      losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated among the MTA SWAP REMIC Regular
      Interests in the same manner that principal distributions are allocated.
      Increases in principal amount as a result of Subsequent Recoveries with respect
      to the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated among the MTA SWAP REMIC Regular
      Interests in the reverse fashion from the manner in which losses are allocated.
      Increases in principal amount as a result of Net Negative Amortization with
      respect to the Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated
      among
      the MTA SWAP REMIC Regular Interests, first to the Class MTASW-Z Interest up
      to
      an amount equal to the accrued interest thereon for such Distribution Date,
      and
      then sequentially, to the other MTA SWAP REMIC Regular Interests in ascending
      order of their numerical Class designation, and, with respect to each pair
      of
      Classes having the same numerical designation, in equal amounts to each such
      Class, up to an amount equal to the accrued interest thereon for such
      Distribution Date. Any amounts remaining in the MTA SWAP REMIC after the
      aforementioned distributions shall be distributed to the Class MTASW-R
      Interest.

    
      
        
        

      

      
        173

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    The
      Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC.
      On each
      Distribution Date the Trustee shall distribute the aggregate Interest Remittance
      Amount (net of expenses charged to the MTA SWAP REMIC described above) with
      respect to each of the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests based on the
      interest rates for such interests set forth in the Preliminary Statement
      hereto.

     

    On
      each
      Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute the aggregate Principal
      Remittance Amount with respect to the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests,
      first to the Class FIXSW-Z Interest until its principal balance is reduced
      to
      zero, and then sequentially, to the other Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular
      Interests in ascending order of their numerical Class designation, and, with
      respect to each pair of Classes having the same numerical designation, in equal
      amounts to each such Class, until the principal balance of each such Class
      is
      reduced to zero. All losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated among
      the
      Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests in the same manner that principal
      distributions are allocated. Increases in principal amount as a result of
      Subsequent Recoveries with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated
      among the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests in the reverse fashion from
      the manner in which losses are allocated. Increases in principal amount as
      a
      result of Net Negative Amortization with respect to the Mortgage Loans for
      any
      Distribution Date shall be allocated among the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular
      Interests, first to the Class FIXSW-Z Interest up to an amount equal to the
      accrued interest thereon for such Distribution Date, and then sequentially,
      to
      the other Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests (other than the Class
      FIXSW-MTAIO Interest) in ascending order of their numerical Class designation,
      and, with respect to each pair of Classes having the same numerical designation,
      in equal amounts to each such Class, up to an amount equal to the accrued
      interest thereon for such Distribution Date. Any amounts remaining in the Fixed
      Rate SWAP REMIC after the aforementioned distributions shall be distributed
      to
      the Class FIXSW-R Interest.

     

    REMIC
      1:
      All
      payments received by REMIC 1 with respect to the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular
      Interests shall be paid to the REMIC 1 Regular Interests until the principal
      balance of all such interests have been reduced to zero and any losses allocated
      to such interests have been reimbursed. Any excess amounts shall be distributed
      to the Class LT1-R Interest. 

     

    On
      each
      Distribution Date,

     

    (i)           interest
      shortfalls with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than interest shortfalls
      attributable to Negative Amortization) shall be allocated to the REMIC 1 Regular
      Interests (other than the Class LT1-FIXIO Interest and the Class LT1-MTAIO
      Interest) pro
      rata
      based on
      the principal amounts of such interests immediately prior to such Distribution
      Date;

    (ii)           the
      principal balance of each REMIC 1 Regular Interest shall be increased by the
      amount of interest accrued thereon (net of interest shortfalls allocated thereto
      pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (i));

     

    (iii)           cash
      received by REMIC 1 with respect to the Fixed Rate SWAP REMIC Regular Interests
      shall be distributed first to the Class LT1-MTAIO Interest and Class LT1-FIXIO
      Interest in reduction of their principal balances so that their principal
      balances are as close as possible to zero. Any remaining cash shall be
      distributed to, and losses with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated

      the Trustee shall account for all distributions with respect to a Class of

      interest in REMIC 2 corresponding to such Class as amounts paid or received
      (as
      appropriate) pursuant to the interest rate cap contracts or notional principal
      contracts provided for in this Section. In no event shall any such amounts
      be
      treated as payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the
      meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1).

      (at the expense of the party causing such sale, disposition, or substitution),a
      copy of which shall be provided to any NIMS Insurer, that such disposition,
      acquisition, substitution, or acceptance will not (a) result in an Adverse
      REMIC
      Event, (b) affect the distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates,

    Upon
      the
      occurrence of an Adverse REMIC Event due to the negligent performance by the
      Trustee of its duties and obligations set forth herein, the Trustee shall
      indemnify the NIMS Insurer, the Holder of the related Residual Certificate
      or
      the Trust Fund, as applicable, against any and all losses, claims, damages,
      liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from such negligence; provided,
      however, that the Trustee shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable
      to the action or inaction of the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Class
      X or
      Class R Certificateholder, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting
      from
      misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which
      the
      Trustee has relied. The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict
      the
      rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter
      existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no
      event shall the Trustee have any liability (1) for any action or omission that
      is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or
      which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement or any Servicing
      Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance
      by the Trustee of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for
      any
      special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment
      of principal and interest on the Certificates).

              REO
                Property.

            


    

     

    (a)           Notwithstanding
      any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, acting on behalf
      of
      the Trustee hereunder, shall not, except to the extent provided in the
      applicable Servicing Agreement, knowingly permit any Servicer to, rent, lease,
      or otherwise earn income on behalf of any REMIC with respect to any REO Property
      which might cause an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Master Servicer has advised,
      or has caused such Servicer to advise, the Trustee in writing to the effect
      that, under the REMIC Provisions, such action would not result in an Adverse
      REMIC Event.

     

    (b)           The
      Master Servicer shall cause the applicable Servicer (to the extent provided
      in
      the related Servicing Agreement) to make reasonable efforts to sell any REO
      Property for its fair market value. In any event, however, the Master Servicer
      shall, or shall cause the applicable Servicer to, dispose of any REO Property
      within three years of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Master
      Servicer has received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service
      to
      the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions, the REMIC may hold REO Property
      for
      a longer period without causing an Adverse REMIC Event. If the Master Servicer
      has received such an extension, then the Master Servicer, acting on the
      Trustee’s behalf hereunder, shall, or shall cause the Servicer to, continue to
      attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period
      longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”). If
      the Master Servicer has not received such an extension and the Master Servicer
      or the applicable Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, is unable
      to sell the REO Property within 33 months after its acquisition by the Trust
      Fund or if the Master Servicer has received such an extension, and the Master
      Servicer or such Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period
      ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Master Servicer
      shall cause such Servicer, before the end of the three year period or the
      Extended Period, as applicable, to (i) purchase such REO Property at a price
      equal to the REO Property’s fair market value or (ii) auction the REO Property
      to the highest bidder (which may be such Servicer) in an auction reasonably
      designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three year
      period or the Extended Period, as the case may be.

              Amendment.

            


    

     

    (a)           This
      Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer
      and the Trustee, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, but without the consent
      of the Swap Counterparty (except to the extent that the rights or obligations
      of
      (1) the Swap Counterparty hereunder or (2) the Swap Counterparty under the
      Swap
      Agreement (or the ability of the Trustee on behalf of the Supplemental Interest
      Trust to perform fully and timely its obligations under the Swap Agreement),
      are
      affected thereby, in which case prior written consent of the Swap Counterparty
      is required) and without notice to or the consent of any of the Holders, (i)
      to
      cure any ambiguity, (ii) to cause the provisions herein to conform to or be
      consistent with or in furtherance of the statements made with respect to the
      Certificates, the Trust Fund or this Agreement in any Offering Document, or
      to
      correct or supplement any provision herein which may be inconsistent with any
      other provisions herein or with the provisions of any Servicing Agreement,
      (iii)
      to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under
      this Agreement or (iv) to add, delete, or amend any provisions to the extent
      necessary or desirable to comply with any requirements imposed by the Code
      and
      the REMIC Provisions. No such amendment effected pursuant to the preceding
      sentence shall, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, result in an Adverse
      REMIC Event, nor shall such amendment effected pursuant to clause (iii) of
      such
      sentence adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Holder.
      Prior to entering into any amendment without the consent of Holders pursuant
      to
      this paragraph, the Trustee, the Swap Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer shall
      be
      provided with an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee, the Swap
      Counterparty and the NIMS Insurer (at the expense of the party requesting such
      amendment) to the effect that such amendment is permitted under this Section.
      Any such amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material
      respect any Holder, if the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer receive written
      confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment will not cause such
      Rating Agency to reduce the then current rating assigned to the Certificates
      (and any Opinion of Counsel requested by the Trustee in connection with any
      such
      amendment may rely expressly on such confirmation as the basis
      therefor).

    (b)           This
      Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Master
      Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee, but without the consent of the
      Swap
      Counterparty (except to the extent that the rights or obligations of (1) the
      Swap Counterparty hereunder or (2) the Swap Counterparty under the Swap
      Agreement (or the ability of the Trustee on behalf of the Supplemental Interest
      Trust to perform fully and timely its obligations under the Swap Agreement
      are
      affected thereby, in which case the prior written consent of the Swap
      Counterparty is required) with the consent of the Holders of not less than
      66
      2/3% of the Class Principal Amount or Class Notional Amount (or Percentage
      Interest) of each Class of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose of
      adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the
      provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the
      Holders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall be made unless the
      Trustee receives an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee and the NIMS
      Insurer, at the expense of the party requesting the change, that such change
      will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event; and provided further, that no such
      amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of,
      payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on
      any
      Certificate, without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate or (ii)
      reduce the aforesaid percentages of Class Principal Amount (or Percentage
      Interest) of Certificates of each Class, the Holders of which are required
      to
      consent to any such amendment without the consent of the Holders of 100% of
      the
      Class Principal Amount or Class Notional Amount (or Percentage Interest) of
      each
      Class of Certificates affected thereby. For purposes of this paragraph,
      references to “Holder” or “Holders” shall be deemed to include, in the case of
      any Class of Book-Entry Certificates, the related Certificate
      Owners.

     

    (c)           Promptly
      after the execution of any such amendment, the Trustee shall furnish written
      notification of the substance of such amendment to each Holder, the NIMS
      Insurer, the Depositor, the Swap Counterparty and to the Rating
      Agencies.

     

    (d)           It
      shall not be necessary for the consent of Holders under this Section 11.03
      to
      approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be
      sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner
      of
      obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution
      thereof by Holders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the
      Trustee may prescribe.

     

    (e)           Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary in any Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall not
      consent to any amendment of any Servicing Agreement unless (i) such amendment
      is
      effected pursuant to the standards provided in this Section with respect to
      amendment of this Agreement and (ii) except for a Permitted Servicing Amendment,
      any such amendment pursuant to Section 11.03(a)(iii) shall not be materially
      inconsistent with the provisions of such Servicing Agreement.

      from time to time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee to
      the
      extent necessary, in the judgment of the Depositor and its counsel, to comply
      with the Rules, Regulation AB and any related rules and
      regulations.

      (or Percentage Interest), Certificates owned by the Depositor, the Master
      Servicer, the Trustee, the Servicer or Affiliates thereof are not to be counted

      so long as any of the Certificates of any Series or Class are “restricted
      securities” within the meaning of Rule 144(a)(3) under the Act, each of the
      Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee agree to cooperate with each
      other to provide to any Certificateholders, and to any prospective purchaser
      of
      Certificates designated by such holder, upon the request of such holder or
      prospective purchaser, any information required to be provided to such holder
      or
      prospective purchaser to satisfy the condition set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4)
      under the Act. Any reasonable, out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the Trustee
      in
      providing such information shall be reimbursed by the Depositor.

     

    (b)           The
      Trustee shall make available to any person to whom a Prospectus was delivered,
      upon the request of such person specifying the document or documents requested,
      (i) a copy (excluding exhibits) of any report on Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form
      10-K filed with the Commission pursuant to Section 6.20(c), (d) or (e) and
      (ii)
      a copy of any other document incorporated by reference in the Prospectus (to
      the
      extent that the Trustee has such documents in its possession or such documents
      are reasonably obtainable by the Trustee). Any reasonable out-of-pocket expenses
      incurred by the Trustee in providing copies of such documents shall be
      reimbursed by the Depositor.

     

    (c)           On
      each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall make available on its website or
      otherwise deliver to the Depositor a copy of the report delivered to

              Transfer
                of Servicing.

            


    

     

    The
      Seller agrees that it shall provide written notice to the Master Servicer,
      the
      NIMS Insurer and the Trustee thirty days prior to any proposed transfer or
      assignment by the Seller of its rights under any Servicing Agreement or of
      the
      servicing thereunder from time to time with respect to any Mortgage Loan or
      group of Mortgage Loans, or delegation of its rights or duties thereunder or
      any
      portion thereof to any other Person other than the initial Servicer under such
      Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that the Seller shall not be required
      to
      provide prior notice of any transfer of servicing that occurs within three
      months following the Closing Date to an entity that is a Servicer on the Closing
      Date. In addition, the ability of the Seller to transfer or assign its rights
      and delegate its duties under a Servicing Agreement or to transfer the servicing
      thereunder, from time to time with respect to any Mortgage Loan or group of
      Mortgage Loans, to a successor servicer shall be subject to the following
      conditions:

     

    (i)           Satisfaction
      of the conditions to such transfer as set forth in the Servicing Agreement
      including, without limitation, receipt of written consent of the Master Servicer
      to such transfer;

     

    (ii)           Receipt
      of the written consent of the NIMS Insurer, such consent not to be unreasonably
      withheld;

     

    (iii)           Such
      successor servicer must be qualified to service loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie
      Mac, and must be a member in good standing of MERS;

     

    (iv)           Such
      successor servicer must satisfy the seller/servicer eligibility standards in
      the
      applicable Servicing Agreement, exclusive of any experience in mortgage loan
      origination and must be reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer, whose
      approval shall not be unreasonably withheld;

    
      
        
        

      

      
        184

        
          

        

      

      
        
        

      

    

     

    (v)           Such
      successor servicer must execute and deliver to the Trustee and the Master
      Servicer an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the
      Trustee and the Master Servicer, that contains an assumption by such successor
      servicer of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant
      and
      condition to be performed and observed by the applicable Servicer under the
      related Servicing Agreement or such successor servicer shall execute and deliver
      to the Trustee and Master Servicer a servicing agreement which contains
      customary and reasonable servicing provisions and which will not cause either
      Rating Agency to qualify, withdraw or downgrade the then-current rating of
      any
      of the Certificates
      or, (i)
      in the case of a transfer of servicing to a party that is already a Servicer
      pursuant to this Agreement, an agreement to add the related Mortgage Loans
      to
      the Servicing Agreement already in effect with such Servicer and (ii) in the
      case of a transfer of servicing to a Special Servicer pursuant to Section 9.32
      herein, a special servicing agreement in the form of that attached to the
      applicable Servicing Agreement;

     

    (vi)           If
      the successor servicer is not a Servicer of Mortgage Loans at the time of the
      transfer, there must be delivered to the Trustee and the Master Servicer a
      letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing
      will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current
      rating of any of the Certificates; and

     

    (vii)           The
      Seller shall, at its cost and expense, take such steps, or cause the
      transferring Servicer to take such steps, as may be necessary or appropriate
      to
      effectuate and evidence the transfer of the servicing of the specified Mortgage
      Loans to such successor or replacement servicer, including, but not limited
      to,
      the following: (A) to the extent required by the terms of the Mortgage Loans
      and
      by applicable federal and state laws and regulations, the Seller shall cause
      the
      prior Servicer to timely mail to each obligor under a Mortgage Loan any required
      notices or disclosures describing the transfer of servicing of the Mortgage
      Loans to the successor or replacement servicer; (B) prior to the effective
      date
      of such transfer of servicing, the Seller shall cause the prior Servicer to
      transmit to any related insurer notification of such transfer of servicing;
      (C)
      on or prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the Seller
      shall cause the prior Servicer to deliver to the successor or replacement
      servicer all Mortgage Loan Documents and any related records or materials;
      (D)
      on or prior to the effective date of such transfer of servicing, the Seller
      shall cause the prior Servicer to transfer to the successor or replacement
      servicer, or, if such transfer occurs after a Servicer Remittance Date but
      before the next succeeding Deposit Date, to the Trustee, all funds held by
      the
      prior Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans; (E) on or prior to the
      effective date of such transfer of servicing, the Seller shall cause the prior
      Servicer to, after the effective date of the transfer of servicing to the
      successor or replacement servicer, continue to forward to such successor or
      replacement servicer, within one Business Day of receipt, the amount of any
      payments or other recoveries received by the prior Servicer, and to notify
      the
      successor or replacement servicer of the source and proper application of each
      such payment or recovery; and (F) the Seller shall cause the prior Servicer
      to,
      after the effective date of transfer of servicing to the successor or
      replacement servicer, continue to cooperate with the successor or replacement
      servicer to facilitate such transfer in such manner and to such extent as the
      successor or replacement servicer may reasonably request. Notwithstanding the
      foregoing, the prior Servicer shall be obligated to perform the items listed
      above to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement.

                to
                be made to any person unless the Depositor and Trustee have received
                a
                certificate from such transferee containing the representations in
                paragraphs 3 and 4 hereof.

                to
                facilitate the clearance and settlement of such securities through

                collection of any federal, state or local taxes legally required
                to be
                paid with respect to such Residual Certificate, and that the Purchaser
                has
                provided financial statements or other financial information requested
                by
                the transferor in connection with the transfer of the Residual Certificate
                in order to permit the transferor to assess the financial capability
                of
                the Purchaser to pay such taxes.

                the Purchaser may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows

                with
                holding such Residual Certificate as they become

                W-8ECI (Certificate of Foreign Person’s Claim for Exemption From

                of the
                Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder and that such transfer
                of
                a Residual Certificate will not be disregarded for federal income
                tax

      Sirs:

     

    In
      connection with our proposed purchase of $______________ principal amount of

                should
                sell any Privately Offered Certificates within two years of the later
                of
                the date of original issuance of the Privately Offered Certificates
                or the

                delivers to the Trustee under the Trust Agreement dated as of July

              (2)

            	
              We
                understand that, in connection with any proposed resale of any Privately
                Offered Certificates to an Institutional Accredited Investor, we
                will be

                from
                such transferee in the form hereof to confirm that the proposed sale
                is
