shall be absolutely net to Landlord. All costs, operating expenses, and

assembly/manufacturing and warehousing and ancillary offices in connection
therewith and for no other purposes (the "Permitted Use"). Throughout the Term,
Tenant covenants to continuously occupy and use the Demised Premises solely for

representation on the part of Landlord that Tenant's use of the Demised Premises
is permitted under applicable zoning or other land use requirements, and, it
shall be Tenant's obligation, at Tenant's sole cost and expense, research
applicable zoning and other land use requirements and to make application for
and to obtain any and all certificates and/or permits to permit Tenant's use
from any governmental agencies having jurisdiction over the Demised Premises.

      Section 5.02. Tenant shall continuously and without interruption, during

                                   ARTICLE VI

                                 Quiet Enjoyment

      Section 6.01. Landlord covenants that if, and for so long as, Tenant pays
Basic Rent, Additional Rent and all other sums due under this Lease as herein
provided, and observes and performs the covenants and conditions of this Lease,
Landlord shall do nothing to affect Tenant's right to peacefully and quietly
have, hold and enjoy the Demised Premises for the Term, subject to the
provisions of this Lease and to any present or future ground lease, mortgage or
deed of trust to which this Lease shall be subordinate.

Additional Rent, an amount equal to all the real estate taxes assessed against
the Demised Premises together with all governmental and non-governmental water
and sewer charges pertaining to the Demised Premises (collectively, "Taxes"
which, among other charges set forth herein, are deemed a part of Additional
Rent) plus an amount equal to all of the insurance required to be paid pursuant
to Paragraphs 8(A), (B), (C), (D), (E) and (G) below (collectively, "Insurance"
which among other charges set forth herein, are deemed a part of Additional
Rent). Throughout the Term hereof, for each fiscal tax year, Taxes and Insurance
to become due shall be payable by Tenant to Landlord with the monthly Basic Rent
installment in twelve (12) equal installments as reasonably estimated by
Landlord until the actual sum of Taxes and Insurance for such fiscal year is
known, and thereafter an adjustment shall be made, with any deficiency being due
from Tenant within ten (10) days following demand, or any overage being credited
to Tenant against the monthly installment of Taxes and Insurance next following
the billing. If Landlord's lender requires tax and insurance escrows, such
lender's estimate of Taxes and Insurance shall be deemed to be a reasonable
estimate that will not be questioned by Tenant.

      Section 7.02. If at any time during the Term of this Lease, under the laws
of the State of New York or any political subdivision thereof, a tax on rents is
assessed against the Landlord or the Basic Rent, as a substitution, in whole or

rent or other governmental imposition or charge with respect to the Demised
Premises, Tenant shall pay an amount equal to same to the extent that it is in
substitution, in whole or in part, for real estate taxes. Taxes shall not

Premises or income tax imposed upon the rent received by the Landlord unless
such tax is a substitute for any real estate tax, property tax or rent tax. Any
sales, value added, use and similar tax assessed or payable on account of the
acquisition, ownership, leasing operation, possession or use of the Demised
Property shall be paid by Tenant.

      Section 7.04. Landlord shall not be liable in any way to Tenant for any
loss, damage or expense which Tenant may sustain or incur as a result of any
failure, interruption, defect or change in the quantity or character of any
utility or service and, in all events, no such interruption or cessation shall
affect or modify this Lease or give rise to any right of cancellation,
termination, offset or defense to Basic Rent, Additional Rent or any other
charge hereunder. Tenant agrees that such supply may be interrupted for
inspection, repairs and replacement and in emergencies.

                                  ARTICLE VIII

      Section 8.01. During the Term, Tenant, at its sole cost, but for the
mutual benefit of Landlord and Tenant, shall maintain the following insurance:

            (A) General Comprehensive public liability insurance protecting and
      indemnifying Landlord and Tenant against all claims for damages to person
      or property or for loss of life or property occurring in, upon or about
      the Demised Premises and the areas adjacent thereto, in the amount of not
      less than Three Million and 00/100 ($3,000,000.00) per occurrence and Five
      Million and 00/100 ($5,000,000.00) annual general aggregate limit per
      location, naming Landlord, its managing agent, if any, and any
      mortgagee(s), as their respective interests may appear:

            (B) Insurance against damage to the Buildings by all risks of direct
      physical loss (at Landlord's option to include earthquake, flood and such
      other risks as Landlord deems appropriate) with the policy to contain
      either the agreed amount endorsement or a replacement cost endorsement, in
      amounts equal to one hundred (100%) percent of full replacement cost, and
      in any event in an amount sufficient to prevent Landlord from becoming a
      co-insurer. Replacement Cost shall be determined from time to time by an
      independent appraiser, architect or engineer designated by Landlord, at
      Tenant's expense. The policy may include, at Landlord's option, a
      contingent liability endorsement and/or demolition and increased cost of
      construction endorsement in order for the Building to be constructed in
      accordance with all requirements and regulations which may be applicable
      at the time of loss or damage, of all governmental agencies having
      jurisdiction over the Building and construction of the Building.

            (C) "All Risk" property insurance against fire, theft, vandalism,
      malicious mischief, sprinkler leakage and such additional perils as are
      now, or hereafter may be, included in a standard extended coverage
      endorsement from time to time in general use in the State of New York upon
      property of every description and kind owned by Tenant and/or under

                                       6
<PAGE>

      Tenant's care, custody or control located in the Building or the Demised
      Premises or for which Tenant is legally liable or installed by or on
      behalf of Tenant, including by way of example and not by way of
      limitation, furniture, fixtures, fittings, equipment, installations and
      any other personal property in an amount equal to the full replacement
      cost thereof.

            (D) Boiler and machinery insurance coverage, if appropriate, for all
      eligible objects, including pressure vessels and air conditioning
      equipment, with the electrical apparatus clause, with such limits as may
      be reasonably necessary to properly insure the values at risk in the
      Buildings.

            (E) Business interruption and rent loss insurance, against the loss
      of Basic and Additional Rent for no less than one (1) year as provided
      herein, as well as such amounts as will reimburse Landlord for direct or
      indirect loss of earnings attributable to all perils commonly insured
      against by prudent tenants or assumed by Tenant pursuant to this Lease or
      attributable to prevention or denial of access to the Demised Premises or
      the Buildings as a result of any such perils.

            (F) Workers' Compensation Insurance (including employers' liability
      insurance) covering all persons employed at the Demised Premises to the
      extent required by the laws of the State of New York.

            (G) Insurance for such other hazards and in such amounts as Landlord
      may reasonably require and as at the time are commonly insured against
      with respect to buildings similar in character, general location and use
      and occupancy to the Demised Premises in relative amounts normally carried
      with respect thereto. If, by reason of changed economic conditions, the
      insurance amounts referred to in this Section 8.01 become inadequate, in
      Landlord's reasonable determination, Tenant agrees to increase the amounts
      of such insurance promptly upon Landlord's reasonable request.

      Tenant represents, said representation being specifically designed to
induce Landlord to execute this Lease, that Tenant's personal property,
fixtures, goods and inventory and any other items which Tenant may bring to the
Demised Premises or which may be under Tenant's care, custody and control which
may be subject to any claim for damages or destruction shall never exceed the
amount of insurance which Tenant is required to carry pursuant to this Lease.
Tenant shall name Landlord, its managing agent, if any, and Landlord's
mortgagee[s] as an additional named insureds, as their interests may appear,
with Landlord (of its mortgagee(s)) being designated as "loss payee" in all
cases. If at any time the amount of personal property, fixtures, goods and
inventory or other items located at the Demised Premises shall exceed said
amount, Tenant covenants to so notify Landlord and at the same time increase the
amount of insurance required to be carried pursuant to Subsection 8.01(C) to an
amount sufficient to cover the aforesaid to preclude any liability on Landlord's

                                       7
<PAGE>

part to Tenant. Should Tenant fail to do so, or fail to maintain insurance
coverage adequate to cover the aforesaid, naming Landlord, its managing agent,
if any, and Landlord's mortgagee[s] as an additional named insured, then, after
written notice and a ten (10) day opportunity to cure, Tenant shall be in
default hereunder and shall be deemed to have breached its covenants as set
forth herein.

      Tenant shall not do or permit to be done any act or thing on the Demised
Premises which shall invalidate or be in conflict with, or cause additional
premium for any insurance policy insuring the Demised Premises.

      All policies of insurance required pursuant to this Section 8.01 shall be
from a company rated in the A.M. Best Key Rating Guide with a policyholder's
service rating of A and a financial rating of X or such other rating as may be
required by Landlord's mortgagee. The insurance company shall be licensed to do
business in the State of New York and a certificate(s) evidencing the existence
of such policy shall be delivered to Landlord, together with evidence of the
payment of the premiums therefore upon the execution of this Lease. Each
insurance company shall agree to provide a notice of cancellation or non-renewal
to Landlord and any mortgagee at least thirty (30) days prior to said event
becoming effective. At least thirty (30) days prior to the expiration or
termination date of any policy, Tenant shall deliver a renewal or replacement
policy, or certificate(s) evidencing the existence thereof, to Landlord together
with proof of the payment of the premium therefor. No deductible on any
insurance required hereunder shall exceed One Thousand and 00/100 ($1,000.00)
Dollars. If Tenant shall fail to comply with the provisions of this Article
VIII, Landlord shall have the right, but not the obligation, to procure such
insurance and pay the premiums thereof and Landlord shall be entitled to
repayment by Tenant immediately on demand, as Additional Rent.

      Section 8.02 Tenant is and shall be in exclusive control and possession of
the Demised Premises as provided herein, and Landlord shall not be liable to
Tenant for any loss suffered by Tenant under any circumstances, including, but
not limited to: (i) loss of or injury to Tenant or to Tenant's property or that
for which Tenant is legally liable from any cause whatsoever, including but not
limited to theft or burglary; or (ii) that which results from or is incidental
to the furnishing of or failure to furnish or the interruption in connection
with the furnishing of any service; or (iii) that which results from any
inspection, repair, alteration or addition or the failure thereof undertaken or
failed to be undertaken by Landlord; or (iv) any interruption to Tenant's
business, however occurring.

      The aforesaid exculpatory Section is to induce Landlord, in its judgment,
to avoid or minimize covering risks which are better quantified and covered by
Tenant either through insurance, thereby avoiding the need to increase the rent
charged Tenant to compensate Landlord for the additional costs in obtaining said
coverage or reserving against such losses.

      Tenant shall indemnify, defend and save Landlord harmless against and from
all and all liabilities, claims, suits, fines, penalties, damages, losses, fees,
obligations, costs and expenses (including attorneys' fees) which may be imposed
upon, incurred by or asserted against Landlord by reason of:

      (A) Any work or thing done in, on or about the Demised Premises or any
      part thereof;

      (B) Any use, occupation, condition or operation of the Demised Premises;

                                       8
<PAGE>

      (C) Any act or omission on the part of Tenant or any of its agents,
      employees, invitees, licensees or subtenants on or within the Demised
      Premises or any part thereof, or any occurrence on any of the same;

      (D) Any accident, injury (including death) or damage to any third party or
      property owned by someone other than Tenant and not under the care,
      custody or control of Tenant occurring in, on or about the Demised
      Premises or any part thereof;

      (E) Any failure on the part of Tenant to perform or comply with any of the
      covenants, agreements, terms or conditions contained in this Lease.

      The provisions of this Section 8.02 shall survive the expiration or
earlier termination of the Lease.

      Section 8.03. Any policies required to be furnished by Tenant pursuant to
this Article VIII will unequivocally provide an undertaking by the insurers to
notify Landlord and the mortgagees or ground lessors of Landlord in writing not
less than thirty (30) days prior to any material change, reduction in coverage,
cancellation or other termination thereof.

      Section 8.04. All policies of insurance set forth in this Article shall
expressly provide that any losses thereunder shall be adjusted with Landlord,
Tenant and Landlord's mortgagees. The Tenant will not take out separate
insurance concurrent in form or contributing in the event of loss with that
required (or which may reasonably be required) pursuant to this paragraph to be
furnished by the Tenant unless the Landlord and each of Landlord's mortgagees
are included therein as an insured, with all losses payable thereunder as
provided above. Any such additional policy shall be subject to Landlord's prior
consent and if approved, shall be delivered to Landlord.

                                   ARTICLE IX

                       Repairs and Alterations; Surrender

its sole cost and expense, take good care of the Demised Premises, and make all
necessary repairs and replacements thereto, interior and exterior, ordinary and
extraordinary, foreseen and unforeseen, structural and non-structural, needed to
keep the same in good order, repair and condition. As used in this Lease, the
term "repair" shall include all necessary replacements, renewals, alterations,
additions and betterments. Tenant shall keep the Demised Premises and all parts
thereof in a clean and sanitary condition and free from trash, flammable

parking areas and roadways within the Demised Premises. Tenant shall keep,
maintain and replace as required all landscaping on the Demised Premises. Tenant

which may become broken after the Commencement Date. Tenant shall also keep in
effect a service and maintenance contract with respect to the HVAC unit
servicing the Demised Premises and shall be responsible for all repairs and
replacements to any such unit(s). Tenant shall redecorate, paint and renovate
the Demised Premises as may be necessary to keep them in good appearance,

or in the future exist in taking or not taking any action under this Lease.

      Tenant, at its sole cost and expense, shall be responsible for the
maintenance, repair and replacement of: (a) all electric, water, sewer and other
utility lines serving the Demised Premises and the mains to the points of
connection; (b) all structural and non-structural elements of the Buildings and
other improvements, including, without limitation, the roof and all roof

Tenant shall provide snow removal services for the Demised Premises, including
the removal of heavy accumulations of snow from the roof of the Buildings which
threaten to cause the roof to collapse, and removal of snow from all sidewalks,
driveways and parking areas.

      All repairs or replacements made by Tenant shall be equal or better in
quality and class to the original work. Tenant shall quit and surrender the
Demised Premises at the end of the Term in as good condition as the reasonable
use thereof will permit and in compliance with the requirements stated herein
and in a "broom-clean" condition, and shall, by way of example and not by way of
limitation, clean and reseal all concrete floors.

      Section 9.02. Landlord covenants and agrees that Landlord shall not make
any alterations or additions to the Demised premises without Tenant's consent.
Landlord shall not permit any mechanics' or other liens to stand against the
Demised Premises for work or materials furnished to landlord. Notwithstanding
the foregoing, should Tenant fail to keep the Demised Premises in good condition
and repair, Landlord, after notice to Tenant (or without notice in the case of
an emergency), may, without being obligated to do so, make the repairs, but
nothing herein shall be construed to impose a duty on Landlord to mitigate its
damages by undertaking any repair which is Tenant's obligation. Any costs
incurred by Landlord in connection with the making of such repairs shall be paid
to Landlord promptly after demand and shall be deemed Additional Rent under this
Lease.

      Section 9.03. At any time and from time to time, Tenant, at Tenant's cost
and expense, may make such non-structural and structural alterations and
additions to the Demised Premises as Tenant desires, including the construction
of new building(s) on the vacant area included within the Demised Premises,
provided that any such alteration and addition shall be of such character and
condition as not to diminish the structural integrity of any improvement on the
Demised Premises and shall not violate applicable laws. Any such alteration
shall not reduce the square footage of the Buildings by more than 5% from that
as of the date hereof and shall not enlarge the square footage of the Buildings
by more than that allowed by applicable law. Any alterations to the Demised
Premises shall be made subject to compliance with all of the following
conditions: (i) Tenant shall first obtain all governmental permits and
approvals, if any, required therefor; (ii) no alteration of or involving the
structural portions, and no alteration, the cost of which would exceed $125,000,
of or involving the non-structural portions, of the Buildings shall be
undertaken until detailed plans and specifications have first been approved in
writing by the Landlord (which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld,
delayed or conditioned); (iii) all alterations when completed shall be of such a
character as shall not reduce, or otherwise adversely affect, the value, cubic

                                       10

content or structural soundness of the Demised Premises and shall immediately
become the property of the Landlord; (iv) all alterations shall be done promptly
and in a good and workmanlike manner and in compliance with all governmental
laws, ordinances, orders, rules, regulations and requirements, and in accordance
with the orders, rules and regulations of the Board of Fire Underwriters or any
other body exercising similar functions and having jurisdiction thereof; (v)
Tenant, prior to performing any work, shall provide Landlord with evidence that
Tenant and each of its contractors and subcontractors have (and will continue to
have), at their sole cost and expense, adequate insurance therefor, including
statutory worker's compensation insurance (or certificates for contractors
indicating worker's compensation insurance is in force) covering all persons
employed in connection with the work, builder's risk insurance (including
completed operations) and general liability insurance for the mutual benefit of
the Tenant, Landlord and Landlord's mortgagees with limits reasonably acceptable
to Landlord, at all times when any work is in process in connection with any
alteration; (vi) Tenant shall pay all increased taxes and insurance premiums
assessed or charged as a result of the alterations; and (vii) Tenant shall post
with Landlord a completion bond in form and substance acceptable to Landlord.
The Tenant shall not be permitted to do any work on the Demised Premises which
would void any portion of any insurance coverage for Landlord's benefit.

      Section 9.04. All alterations, additions and improvements, whether
temporary or permanent in character, which may be made upon or to the Demised
Premises by Tenant (except furniture or movable trade fixtures installed at the
expense of Tenant) shall become the property of Landlord and shall remain upon
and be surrendered with the Demised Premises as a part thereof at the expiration
or sooner termination of this Lease, without compensation to Tenant.

      Any furniture or movable trade fixtures remaining at the Demised Premises
on the next day after the end of the Term shall be conclusively deemed abandoned
and may be removed by Landlord and discarded or stored at Tenant's sole risk and
expense.

      Section 9.05. On the Termination Date or earlier termination of this
Lease, Tenant shall, at Tenant's sole cost and expense: (1) peaceably surrender
the Demised Premises broom-clean, in good order and condition and upon
Landlord's request, restored to its original condition as of the Commencement
Date; and (2) at its expense remove from the Demised Premises the signage,
movable furniture, equipment, machinery, trade fixtures (the personalty which
belongs to Tenant and which Tenant may remove shall be referred to as "Tenant's
Property"), and any of Tenant's Property not so removed may at Landlord's
election and without limiting Landlord's right to compel removal thereof, be
deemed abandoned. Any damage to the Demised Premises caused by Tenant in the
removal of Tenant's Property shall be repaired by and at Tenant's expense, or if
not done by Tenant in a timely manner, may be performed by Landlord and all sums
expended by Landlord shall be deemed Additional Rent. Any cost or expense
incurred by Landlord in removing Tenant's Property shall be deemed Additional
Rent.

                            Casualty or Condemnation

      Section 11.01. Tenant shall give prompt written notice to Landlord in the
event of any damage, destruction to or condemnation of the Demised Premises.

      Section 11.02. Tenant hereby irrevocably assigns to Landlord any award,
compensation or insurance payment to which Tenant may become entitled by reason
of Tenant's interest in the Demised Premises (i) if the use, occupancy or title
of the Demised Premises or any part thereof, is taken, requisitioned or sold in,
by or on account of any actual or threatened eminent domain proceeding or other
action by any person having the power of eminent domain ("Condemnation") or (ii)
if the Demised Premises or any part thereof are damaged or destroyed by fire,
flood or other casualty ("Casualty"). All awards, compensations and insurance
payments on account of any Condemnation or Casualty are herein collectively
called "Compensation." Landlord may appear in any such proceeding or action to
negotiate, prosecute and adjust any claim for any Compensation, and Landlord
shall collect any such Compensation. Tenant shall pay all of Landlord's costs
and expenses in connection with each such proceeding, action, negotiation,
prosecution and adjustment. Tenant shall be entitled to participate in any such
proceeding, action, negotiation, prosecution or adjustment. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary contained in this Article XI, if permissible under
applicable law, any separate Compensation made to Tenant for its moving and
relocation expenses, anticipated loss of business profits, loss of goodwill or
fixtures and equipment paid for by Tenant and which are not part of the Demised
Premises, shall be paid directly to and shall be retained by Tenant (unless such
Compensation reduces amounts otherwise due to Landlord). All Compensation shall
be applied pursuant to this Section 11.02, and all such Compensation (less the
expense of collecting such Compensation) is herein called the "Net Proceeds".

      Section 11.03. Substantial Condemnation. If a Condemnation shall, in
Tenant's good faith judgment, affect all or a substantial portion of the
Premises and shall render the Premises unsuitable for restoration for continued
use and occupancy in Tenant's business, then Tenant shall, not later than thirty
(30) days after such Condemnation, deliver to Landlord (i) notice of its
intention to terminate this Lease on the rental payment date immediately after
any such Condemnation occurs (the "Condemnation Termination Date"); (ii) a
certificate of an authorized officer of Tenant describing the event giving rise
to such termination and stating that Tenant has determined that such
Condemnation has rendered the Premises unsuitable for restoration for continued
use and occupancy in Tenant's business; and (iii) documentation to the effect
that termination of this Lease will not be in violation of any agreement then in
effect with which Tenant is obligated to comply pursuant to this Lease. This
Lease shall terminate on the Condemnation Termination Date, except with respect
to obligations and liabilities of Tenant hereunder, actual or contingent, which
have arisen on or prior to the Condemnation Termination Date, upon payment by
Tenant of all Basic Rent, Additional Rent and other sums due and payable
hereunder to and including the Condemnation Termination Date and the Net
Proceeds shall belong to Landlord.

      Section 11.04. Substantial Casualty during the Renewal Term. Intentionally
Omitted

      Section 11.05. Less Than Substantial Condemnation or any Casualty. If,
after a Condemnation or Casualty, Tenant does not give or does not have the
right to give notice of its intention to terminate this Lease as provided in
Subsections 11.03 and 11.04, then this Lease shall continue in full force and
effect (with no abatement of Basic Rent, Additional Rent or any other sums due
under this Lease) and Tenant shall, at its expense, rebuild, replace or repair
the Demised Premises in conformity with the requirements of Section IX, and
other applicable Sections of this Lease so as to restore the Demised Premises
(in the case of Condemnation, as nearly as practicable) to the condition,
character and fair market value thereof immediately prior to such Casualty or
Condemnation. Prior to any such rebuilding, replacement or repair, Landlord and
Tenant shall agree on the maximum cost thereof (the "Restoration Cost"). The
Restoration Cost shall be paid first out of Tenant's own funds to the extent
that the Restoration Cost exceeds the Net Proceeds payable in connection with
such occurrence, after which expenditure Tenant shall be entitled to receive the
Net Proceeds, but only against (i) certificates of Tenant delivered to Landlord
from time to time as such work of rebuilding, replacement and repair progresses,
each such certificate describing the work for which Tenant is requesting payment
and the cost incurred by Tenant in connection therewith and stating that Tenant
has not theretofore received payment for such work and (ii) such additional
documentation as Landlord may reasonably require, including, but not limited to,
copies of contracts and subcontracts relating to restoration, architects'
certifications, title policy updates and lien waivers or releases. Any Net
Proceeds remaining after final payment has been made for such work and after
Tenant has been reimbursed for any portions it contributed to the Restoration
Cost shall be retained by Landlord. In the event of any temporary Condemnation,
this Lease shall remain in full effect and Tenant shall be entitled to receive
the Net Proceeds allocable to such temporary Condemnation, except that any
portion of the Net Proceeds allocable to the period after the expiration or
termination of the Term shall be paid to Landlord. If the cost of any
rebuilding, replacement or repair required to be made by Tenant pursuant to this
subsection 11.05 shall exceed the amount of such Net Proceeds, the deficiency
shall be paid by Tenant.

                                     Reserve

      Section 12.01. In addition to any Basic Rent, Additional Rent and any
other sums due under this Lease, Tenant shall pay to Landlord, concurrently with
each payment of Basic Rent, a monthly installment for Annual Replacement Reserve
Costs (as defined below and referred to herein as the "Reserve"). "Annual
Replacement Reserve Costs" is hereby defined as the estimated annual replacement
reserve for repair and replacement to the structure of the Buildings and
replacement of the roof of the Buildings. The annual Reserve shall be 12.5 cents
($0.125) per sq.ft. per annum and each monthly installment shall be one twelfth
(1/12th) of such amount. The Reserve shall be held by the Landlord, in escrow,
and the following shall apply:

            Landlord's mortgagee(s);

      ii)   The Reserve shall be kept in a non-interest bearing account unless
            Landlord is required by law to pay interest in which event the
            Reserve shall be placed in an interest bearing account under
            Tenant's tax identification number and interest earned thereon shall
            be taxed to the Tenant;

      iii)  So long as no default has occurred under this Lease and is
            continuing, any amount remaining in the Reserve at the termination
            of the Lease, including any permitted Renewal Term, shall be
            returned to the Tenant; and

      iv)   Landlord's right to possession of the Demised Property for
            non-payment of Basic Rent, or for any other reason, shall not in any
            event be affected by reason of the Landlord's holding the Reserve.

      Section 12.02. So long as there is no default has occurred under this
Lease and is continuing, Tenant shall have the option, but not the obligation,
to utilize the Reserve for structural repairs or replacements to the Buildings
and for the replacement of the roof(s) of the Building(s). Tenant shall access
the Reserve and conduct any permitted repairs or replacements subject to the
requirements of and in the same manner as set forth in Section 11.03 above
except that any remaining proceeds shall remain in the Reserve.

The foregoing is in addition to, and not in lieu of, Tenant's continuing
obligation to be responsible for all structural and roof repairs and
replacement.

                               Defaults & Remedies

      Section 15.01. The occurrence of any one or more of the following acts or
occurrences shall be referred to as a default or as an "Event of Default" under

                                       18
<PAGE>

      (A) If Tenant shall fail to make any payment of Basic Rent or pay
      Additional Rent or any other amount due under this Lease as and when the
      same shall become due and payable; or

      (B) If Tenant shall default in the performance of or compliance with any
      of the other covenants, agreements, terms or conditions of this Lease to
      be performed by Tenant (other than any default curable by payment of
      money), and such default shall continue for a period of thirty (30) days
      after written notice thereof from Landlord to Tenant; or where such
      default reasonably cannot be cured within such thirty (30) days, if Tenant
      shall not have commenced the curing thereof within such period of time and
      shall not be proceeding with reasonable diligence to cure it, provided,
      however, that such default must be cured within ninety (90) days after
      commencement of the curing thereof; or

      (C) If Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease shall make an assignment for
      the benefit of creditors or file a voluntary petition in bankruptcy or
      shall be adjudicated a bankrupt or insolvent, or shall file any petition
      or answer seeking any reorganization, composition, readjustment or similar
      relief under any present or future bankruptcy or other applicable law, or
      shall seek or consent to or acquiesce in the appointment of any trustee,
      receiver, or liquidator of Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease or of all
      or any substantial part of its properties or of all or any part of the
      Demised Premises; or

      (D) If, within thirty (30) days after the filing of an involuntary
      petition in bankruptcy against Tenant or any guarantor of this Lease, or
      the commencement of any proceeding against Tenant or such guarantor
      seeking any reorganization, composition, readjustment or similar relief
      under any law, such proceeding shall not have been dismissed, or if,
      within thirty (30) days after the appointment (with or without the consent
      or acquiescence of Tenant or such guarantor), of any trustee, receiver or
      liquidator of Tenant or such guarantor, or of all or any part of the
      Demised Premises, such appointment shall not have been vacated or stayed
      on appeal or otherwise, or if, within thirty (30) days after the
      expiration of any such stay, such appointment shall have been vacated, or
      if, within thirty (30) days after the taking possession, without the
      consent or acquiescence of Tenant or such guarantor, of the property of
      Tenant, or of such guarantor by any governmental office or agency pursuant
      to statutory authority for the dissolution or liquidation of Tenant or
      such guarantor, such taking shall not have been vacated or stayed on
      appeal or otherwise; or

      (E) If the Demised Premises shall be abandoned, unoccupied or vacated by
      Tenant; or

      (F) If Tenant liquidates, ceases to exist or sells all or a substantial
      portion of its assets; or

      (G) Intentionally omitted.

      (H) If any representation or warranty made by Tenant or any guarantor of
      this Lease that is set forth herein or in any contract, notice,
      certificate, estoppel or request proves to be incorrect in any respect; or

                                       19
<PAGE>

      (I) If a final judgment of more than $1,000,000 or any amount which
      creates a default under any material debt of Tenant or any guarantor
      occurs and is not discharged or bonded within thirty (30) days of such
      occurrence.

      Section 15.02. Following the occurrence of an Event of Default, Landlord,
in addition to any and all rights and remedies it may have at law and equity,
may at its option exercise any one or more of the following remedies:

      (a) Landlord may give Tenant a notice (the "Eviction Notice") of its
intention to terminate this Lease specifying a date not less than five (5) days
thereafter, upon which date this Lease, the term and estate hereto granted and
all rights of Tenant hereunder shall expire and terminate. Notwithstanding the
foregoing: (i) Tenant shall remain liable for damages as hereinafter set forth,
and (ii) Landlord may institute dispossession proceedings for non-payment of
rent, or other proceedings to enforce the payment of rent without giving the
Eviction Notice. Upon any such eviction or expiration of this Lease, Tenant
shall peaceably quit and surrender the Demised Premises to Landlord, and
Landlord may without further notice enter upon. re-enter, possess and repossess
itself thereof, by summary proceedings, ejectment or otherwise and may have,
hold and enjoy the Demised Premises and the right to receive all rental and
other income of and from the same as heretofore provided. However, so long as
Tenant is not in default in the payment of Basic Rent or Additional Rent or in
the performance of any other terms, covenants and conditions of this Lease
beyond the expiration of relevant cure periods, Landlord shall not terminate
this Lease.

      (b) Landlord may, at Landlord's sole option (without imposing any duty
upon Landlord to do so), and Tenant hereby authorizes and empowers Landlord to:
(i) re-enter the Demised Premises as Tenant's agent or for any occupant of the
Demised Premises under Tenant, or for its own account or otherwise, (ii) relet
the same for any term, (iii) restore the Demised Premises to the condition in
which it was required to be surrendered by Tenant under this Lease, and (iv)
receive and apply the rent so received to pay all reasonable fees and expenses
incurred by Landlord, directly or indirectly, as a result of Tenant's default,
including, without limitation, any reasonable legal fees and expenses arising
therefrom, the reasonable cost of re-entry, repair and reletting and the payment
of the rent and other charges due hereunder. No entry, re-entry or reletting by
Landlord, whether by summary proceedings, termination or otherwise, shall
discharge Tenant from any of its liability to Landlord as set forth in this
Lease, and in no event shall Tenant be entitled to or receive any benefit or
credit from any rental in excess of the rent reserved under this Lease which
results from a reletting of the Demised Premises after Tenant's default;

      (c) Regardless of whether Landlord relets the Demised Premises, or enters
or re-enters the same, whether by summary proceedings, termination or otherwise,
Tenant shall pay Landlord, and be liable to Landlord for the full amount of all
Basic Rent, Additional Rent, and all other charges then due or thereafter to
become due to Landlord hereunder less any sums collected by Landlord during the
remaining term of this Lease, such amount shall be paid by Tenant to Landlord on
the days originally fixed herein for payment thereof. Landlord may apply any or

                                       20
<PAGE>

all sums held by Landlord as a security deposit pursuant to Article XXIII toward
all sums due by Tenant for Basic Rent, Additional Rent or any other obligations
of Tenant;

      (d) If Tenant shall fail to pay any Taxes or make any other payment
required to be made under this Lease, or shall default in the performance of any
covenant, agreement, term, provision or condition herein contained, Landlord
may, without being under any obligation to do so, and without thereby waiving
such default, make such payment and/or remedy such default for the account and
at the sole expense of Tenant. Tenant shall pay to Landlord, on demand, the
amount of all sums so paid and all expenses so incurred by Landlord, together
with interest, at the rate set forth in subparagraph 15.02(e) below, on such
sums and expenses from the date incurred until payment in full;

      (e) Interest on any sums due to Landlord from Tenant under this Lease
shall accrue from the date such sums became due and payable at the lesser of:
(a) the highest permitted rate by law, and (b) eighteen percent (18%) per annum.
Landlord, at its option, shall forthwith, notwithstanding any other provision of
this Lease, be entitled to recover from Tenant (in lieu of all other claims for
damages on account of such termination) as and for liquidated damages an amount
equal to the excess of all Basic Rent and Additional Rent reserved hereunder for
the unexpired portion of the Term of this Lease discounted at the rate of three
(3%) percent per annum to the then present worth, over the fair rental value of
the Demised Premises at the time of termination for such unexpired portion of
the Term (the rent received on a reletting shall be conclusively accepted as the
fair rental value). Additionally, Tenant agrees to pay, as Additional Rent, all
reasonable attorney's fees and other expenses incurred by Landlord in enforcing
any of the obligations under this Lease, including but not limited to the
payment of any rental obligations hereunder. This covenant shall survive the
expiration or sooner termination of this Lease.

      (f) Nothing herein contained shall limit or prejudice the right of
Landlord, in any bankruptcy or reorganization or insolvency proceeding, to prove
for and obtain as liquidated damages by reason of such termination an amount
equal to the maximum allowed by any statute or rule of law whether such amount
shall be greater or less than the excess referred to above.

      Section 15.03. All remedies of Landlord set forth herein, and all remedies
of Landlord at law and in equity, may be exercised from time to time in such
order and in such combination as Landlord elects.

      Section 15.04. Tenant hereby waives all right of redemption or re-entry or
re-possession to which Tenant or any person under it may be entitled by any law
now or hereafter in force. In addition, in the event of an Event of Default
which results in the Landlord recovering possession of the Demised Premises,
Landlord shall be under no duty to mitigate Tenant's damages as provided for in
this Article XV unless such mitigation is required by applicable law. Landlord's
remedies hereunder are in addition to any remedy allowed by law.

      Section 15.05. In the event of any breach or threatened breach by Tenant
of any of the agreements, terms, covenants or conditions contained in this
Lease, Landlord shall be entitled to enjoin such breach or threatened breach and
shall have the right to invoke any right or remedy allowed at law or in equity
or by statute or otherwise as though re-entry, summary dispossession

                                       21
<PAGE>

proceedings, and other remedies were not provided for in this Lease. During the
pendency of any proceedings brought by Landlord to recover possession by reason
of default, Tenant shall continue all money payments required to be made to
Landlord, and Landlord may accept such payments for use and occupancy of the
Demised Premises. In such event, Tenant waives its right in such proceedings to
claim as a defense that the receipt of such money payments by Landlord
constitutes a waiver by Landlord of such default.

      Section 15.06. No failure by Landlord to insist upon the strict
performance of any covenant, agreement or term or condition of this Lease, or to
exercise any right or remedy upon default, and no acceptance of full or partial
Basic Rent, Additional Rent or any other sum due under this Lease during the
continuance of any such default shall constitute a waiver of such default or of
any covenant, agreement, term or condition. No covenant, agreement, term or
condition of this Lease, or any breach thereof, shall be waived, altered or
modified except by a written instrument executed by Landlord.

      Section 15.07. In the event of any breach or threatened breach by Tenant
of any of the terms or conditions contained in this Lease, Landlord shall be
entitled to enjoin such breach or threatened breach and shall have the right to
invoke any right or remedy allowed at law or in equity.

                                   ARTICLE XVI

                            Assignment and Subletting

      Section 16.01. Unless a default shall have occurred hereunder and be
continuing, Tenant may, for its own account, assign this Lease or sublet all or
any part of the Demised Premises for the Term of this Lease subject to the
approval of Landlord which approval shall not be unreasonably withheld, delayed
or conditioned. Each such assignment or sublease shall expressly be made subject
to the provisions hereof. No such assignment or sublease shall modify or limit
any right or power of Landlord hereunder or affect or reduce any obligation of
Tenant hereunder and all such obligations shall be those of Tenant and shall
continue in full effect as obligations of a principal and not of a guarantor or
surety, as though no subletting or assignment had been made, such liability of
the Tenant named herein to continue notwithstanding any subsequent modifications
or amendments of this Lease; provided, however, that (other than with respect to
any modifications required by law or on account of bankruptcy or insolvency) if
any modification or amendment is made without the consent of the Tenant named
herein (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed), such
modification or amendment shall be ineffective as against the Tenant named
herein to the extent, and only to the extent, that the same shall materially
increase the obligations of the Tenant, it being expressly agreed that (even if

                                       22
<PAGE>

any such modification or amendment shall materially increase the likelihood of a
default by Tenant under this Lease) the Tenant named herein shall remain liable
to the full extent of this Lease as if such modification had not been made.
Neither this Lease nor the Term hereby demised shall be mortgaged by Tenant, nor
shall Tenant mortgage or pledge its interest in any sublease of the Demised
Premises or the rentals payable thereunder. Any such mortgage or pledge, any
sublease made otherwise than as expressly permitted by this Section 16.01 and
any assignment of Tenant's interest hereunder made otherwise than as expressly
permitted by this Section 16.01 shall be void. Tenant shall, within twenty (20)
days after the execution of any assignment or sublease, deliver a conformed copy
thereof to Landlord.

      Section 16.02 Related Parties. At any time and from time to time Tenant's
interest under this Lease may be assigned and re-assigned without Landlord's
consent to a corporation or other entity which is a parent, subsidiary or
affiliate of Tenant or to a corporation or other entity resulting from any
consolidation, reorganization, or merger with Tenant, or any ot its parent or
subsidiary entities. For purposes of this paragraph, an affiliate of Tenant
shall mean any entity which directly or indirectly controls or is controlled by
Tenant or Guarantor.

      Section 16.03. Tenant agrees that it shall not be unreasonable for
Landlord to withhold its consent to a proposed sublease or assignment if:

            I.    The proposed assignee refuses to provide Landlord with
                  financial statements covering a period of at least 12 months
                  ending no earlier than six months and no later than three
                  months prior to the as of which they are provided to Landlord
                  or as of the effective date of the proposed assignment, the
                  Proposed Assignee shall have a financial standing
                  substantially inferior to the financial standing of Tenant as
                  of the Commencement Date;

            II.   The Proposed Assignee shall not agree in writing to assume all
                  of the obligations of Tenant under this Lease from and after
                  the date of the assignment;

            III.  The term of any such assignment or sublease shall be less than
                  five (5) years or the balance of the term of this Lease, if
                  less;

            IV.   Tenant or the Proposed Assignee shall fail to pay to Landlord
                  a processing fee of Two Thousand Five Hundred and 00/100
                  ($2,500.00) Dollars in connection with the proposed sublet or
                  assignment of this Lease;

            V.    Tenant shall fail to furnish Landlord with a true and correct
                  copy of the sublease or assignment and assumption not less
                  than thirty (30) days prior to execution for Landlord's review
                  and approval (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld)
                  and a fully executed counterpart of the sublease or assignment
                  and assumption of this Lease, as applicable, within ten (10)
                  days after the date of the execution of same;

            VI.   Tenant shall refuse to pay to Landlord fifty (50%) percent of
                  any sums (including without limitation Basic Rent and
                  Additional Rent) received by Tenant, as and when received, in
                  excess of the Rent payable by Tenant to Landlord as Rent under
                  this Lease.

            VII.  The Proposed Assignee is not solvent or is generally held in
                  disrepute.

Section 16.04 Limits on Assignees

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Lease, Tenant shall
not., without the prior written consent (which consent, to be effective must
expressly state the Landlord is aware that the subject assignee or subtenant, as
the case may be, is a tax-exempt entity) of Landlord in each instance (which
Landlord may grant or withhold in its sole discretion), assign all or any part
of its interest in this Lease or sublet all or any part of the Demised Premises,
or in any other manner grant any right to use, occupy or otherwise "lease"
(within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code of 1986, Section 168(h), as amended

                                       23
<PAGE>

("Section 168(h)")) all or any part of the Demised Premises, to any "tax-exempt
entity", as defined in Section 168(h), to the extent that the aggregate portion
of the Premises sublet, assigned, used, occupied or "leased" by all such
tax-exempt entities shall be more than thirty-five (35%) percent of the Demised
Premises. Tenant agrees that any assignment of lease or subletting made in
violation of the foregoing sentence will be deemed initially void, and Tenant
acknowledges that, notwithstanding such voiding, Landlord may incur damages as a
result of such violations and Tenant agrees to indemnify Landlord from any such
damages

Section 16.05. Transfer or Pledge by Landlord

Landlord shall be free to transfer its fee interest in the Demised Premises or
any part thereof or interest therein, subject, however, to the terms of this
Lease and the assumption of such terms by the proposed assignee. Any such
transfer shall relieve the transferor of all liability and obligation hereunder
(to the extent of the interest transferred) accruing after the date of the
transfer. Landlord shall be free to pledge or mortgage its interest in the
Demised Premises and this Lease. Tenant agrees to make such reasonable
modifications to this Lease as may be requested by Landlord's mortgagee(s), if
any, provided that such modifications do not materially increase Tenant's
obligations or increase the rent due hereunder

      Section 16.06. If Tenant is an entity other than an entity that files
periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission under the
Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and whose stock is publicly traded, the
provisions of this Article XVI shall apply to a transfer (however accomplished,
whether in a single transaction or in a series of related or unrelated
transactions) of stock (or any other mechanism such as, by way of example, the
issuance of additional stock, a stock voting agreement or change in class(es) of
stock) which results in a change of control of Tenant as if such transfer of
stock (or other mechanism) resulting in a change of control of Tenant were an
assignment of this Lease, and if Tenant is a limited liability company,
partnership, limited partnership, joint venture or other entity other than an
entity that files periodic reports with the Securities and Exchange Commission
under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 and whose interests are publicly
traded, such provisions shall apply with respect to a transfer (by one or more
transfers) of an interest in the entity or distributions of profits and losses
of such partnership, limited partnership or joint venture (or other mechanism,
such as, by way of example, the creation of additional general partnership or
limited partnership interests) which results in a change of control of such an
entity, partnership or joint venture as if such transfer of an interest in the
distributions of profits and losses of such entity, partnership or joint venture
which results in a change of control of such entity, partnership or joint
venture were an assignment of this Lease.

      Section 16.07. Tenant shall have no claim, and hereby waives the right to
any claim, against Landlord for money damages by reason of any refusal,
withholding or delaying by Landlord of any consent to Tenant's request for a
proposed subletting or assignment.

      Section 16.08. Any assignment or subletting that is not made in compliance
with the provisions of this Article XVI shall be void, and at Landlord's option,
shall constitute an Event of Default under this Lease. The provisions of this
Article XVI do not and shall not be construed to create any rights in favor of
any third parties.

                                  Holding Over

      Section 18.01. If Tenant shall remain in the Demised Premises after the
expiration of the Term without having executed and delivered a new lease with
Landlord, such holding over shall not constitute a renewal or extension of this
Lease. Landlord may, at its option, elect to treat Tenant as one who has not
removed at the end of its Term, and thereupon be entitled to all the remedies
against Tenant provided by law and in equity in that situation, or Landlord may
elect, at its option, to construe such holding over as a tenancy from month to
month made at the sufferance of Landlord, subject to all the terms and
conditions of this Lease, except: (a) as to duration thereof; and (b) that the
Basic Rent shall be at a monthly rate equal to two hundred (200%) percent of the
Basic Rent payable in the month immediately prior to the expiration of the Term
(or renewal thereof). The time limitations described in this Article XVIII shall
not be subject to extension for Force Majeure.

                                      Liens

      Section 19.01. Tenant shall not do any act, or make any contract, which
may create or be the foundation for any lien or other encumbrance upon any
interest of Landlord or any ground or underlying lessor in any portion of the
Building, the Land, or the Demised Premises. If, because of any act or omission
(or alleged act or omission) of Tenant, any notice of intention, mechanic's or
other lien (collectively, a "Lien"), charge or order for the payment of money or
other encumbrance shall be filed against Landlord and/or any ground or
underlying lessor and/or any portion of the Demised Premises (whether or not
such lien, charge, order, or encumbrance is valid or enforceable as such),
Tenant shall, at its own cost and expense, cause same to be discharged of record
or bonded within fifteen (15) days after the filing thereof; and Tenant shall
indemnify, defend and save harmless Landlord and all ground and underlying
lessor(s) against and from all costs, liabilities, suits, penalties, claims, and
demands, including counsel fees, resulting therefrom. If Tenant fails to comply
with the foregoing provisions, Landlord shall have the right (but not the
obligation) to discharge or bond any such lien, charge, order, or encumbrance,
and Tenant agrees to reimburse Landlord for all costs, expenses and other sums
of money in connection therewith with interest at the maximum rate permitted by
law promptly upon demand, and all such sums shall be Additional Rent.

      Section 19.02. All materialmen, contractors, artisans, mechanics,
laborers, and any other persons now or hereafter contracting with Tenant or any
contractor or subcontractor of Tenant for the furnishing of any labor services,
materials, supplies, or equipment with respect to the Building or any other
portion of the Demised Premises, at any time from the date hereof until the end
of the Lease Term, are hereby charged with notice that they must look
exclusively to Tenant and not to any mechanic's or other lien on the Demised
Premises to obtain payment for same.

                                   Bankruptcy

      Section 20.01. If, as a matter of law, Landlord has no right on the
bankruptcy of Tenant to terminate this Lease, then, if Tenant, as debtor, or its
trustee wishes to assume or assign this Lease, in addition to curing or
adequately assuring the cure of all defaults existing under this Lease on
Tenant's part on the date of filing of the proceeding (such assurances being
defined below), Tenant, as debtor, or the trustee or assignee, must also furnish
adequate assurances of future performance under this Lease (as defined in the
Bankruptcy Code (as hereinafter defined). In the case of an assignee, Tenant or
its trustee shall assure Landlord that the assignee is financially capable of
assuming this Lease, and that its use of the Demised Premises will not be
detrimental to Landlord. In a reorganization under Chapter 11 of 11 U.S.C. ss.
101 et seq. (the "Bankruptcy Code"), the debtor or trustee must assume this
Lease or assign it within sixty (60) days from the filing of the proceedings, or
it shall be deemed to have rejected and terminated this Lease.

      Section 20.02. If this Lease is assigned to any person or entity pursuant
to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code, any and all monies or other
consideration to be delivered in connection with the assignment shall be
delivered to Landlord, shall be and remain the exclusive property of Landlord
and shall not constitute property of Tenant or of the estate of Tenant within
the meaning of the Bankruptcy Code. Any person or entity to which this Lease is
assigned pursuant to the provisions of the Bankruptcy Code shall be deemed to
have assumed all of the obligations arising under this Lease on or after the
date of the assignment and shall on demand execute and deliver to Landlord an
instrument confirming the assumption.

one (1) business day's notice (except that no notice shall be required in an
emergency) to examine the same, or to exhibit the Demised Premises to
prospective purchasers and lenders and to place upon the Demised Premises a

shall, at Tenant's expense, remove the sign and repair all damage done by or in
connection with the installation or removal of the sign.

                     Advanced Rent, Security and Late Charge

      Section 23.01. On or before the Commencement Date, Tenant shall deposit
with Landlord, as security for the payment of the Rent due hereunder and the
full and faithful performance by Tenant of the covenants and conditions on the
part of Tenant to be performed under this Lease, an irrevocable, unconditional,
transferable "evergreen" commercial letter of credit issued by an S&P "A" rated
commercial bank approved in advance by Landlord and otherwise acceptable in all
respects to Landlord, in its sole and absolute discretion (the "Letter of
Credit"). The initial amount of the Letter of Credit shall be the sum of One
Hundred Twenty Seven Thousand Five hundred and 00/100 ($127,500) Dollars. The
Letter of Credit shall have an initial expiration date of not less than one (1)
year from the Commencement Date and shall provide for the automatic extension of
its expiration date for successive one (1) year periods throughout the Term,
unless Landlord is given written notice to the contrary by the issuing bank not
less than sixty (60) days prior to the expiration of the Letter of Credit. Not
less than thirty (30) days prior to the expiration of the Letter of Credit, or
at any time following notice by the issuing bank that it will not renew the
Letter of Credit, Tenant shall provide a substitute letter of credit conforming
in all respects to the requirements of this Section 23.01. In the event: (i) of
any default by Tenant under this Lease; or (ii) that Tenant has failed to
provide a substitute letter of credit as required by this Section 23.01,
Landlord is hereby authorized to draw upon the Letter of Credit, and shall have
the right to retain the cash proceeds of the Letter of Credit, or so much
thereof as shall remain after curing any default. In such case, Tenant shall
immediately provide Landlord with a substitute letter of credit in the amount
equal to the aggregate of twelve (12) monthly payments of the then-current Basic
Rent.

      Section 23.02. Intentionally deleted

      Section 23.03. The original Letter of Credit (less any portions thereof
used, applied or retained by Landlord in accordance with this Article 23) shall
be returned to Tenant after the expiration of the Term, provided that Tenant has
fully and faithfully performed all such covenants and conditions of this Lease,
is not in arrears in Rent and has vacated the Demised Premises. In the event of
a sale, pledge, transfer or encumbrance of the Demised Premises subject to this
Lease, Landlord shall have the right to transfer the Letter of Credit to a
purchaser or lender, as applicable, and Landlord shall be considered released by
Tenant from all liability for the return of the Letter of Credit. All costs
incurred in connection with the transfer of the Letter of Credit shall be paid
by Tenant. Tenant agrees to look solely to the new owner for the return of the
Letter of Credit, and it is agreed that this shall apply to every transfer or
assignment made of the Letter of Credit to the new landlord.

      Section 23.04. In the event of the insolvency of Tenant or in the event of
the entry of a judgment in bankruptcy in any court against Tenant which is not
discharged within thirty (30) days after entry, or in the event a petition is
filed by or against Tenant under any chapter of the bankruptcy or insolvency
laws of any state or the United States of America, then and in such event
Landlord may require Tenant to deposit additional security in such amount as may
be necessary to adequately assure Tenant's performance of all of its obligations
under this Lease, including all payments subsequently accruing. Failure of
Tenant to deposit the additional security required by this section within ten
(10) days after Landlord's written demand shall constitute a default by Tenant
under this Lease.

      Section 23.05. Simultaneously with the execution of this Lease, the Tenant
has delivered to Landlord the sum of $45,000.00 as Basic Rent for the first
month of Tenant's rental obligation.

      Section 23.06. Tenant shall pay a "Late Charge" of eight (8%) percent of
any installment of Basic Rent or Additional Rent received by Landlord more than
five (5) days after the due date thereof. Landlord and Tenant stipulate and
agree that this Late Charge is a reasonable amount to be charged to Tenant for
the purpose of offsetting Landlord's costs and other charges incurred by
Landlord as a result of Tenant's failure (including, but not limited to,
Landlord's cost of collection efforts) which are incapable of precise definition
at this time. The assessment and/or collection of any of the foregoing charges
shall not in any way be construed or deemed to be a waiver or a continuing
waiver of any of the terms, provisions, covenants, and conditions of this Lease
or any of Landlord's rights hereunder or under applicable law nor shall it be
construed as a cure for any non-payment under this Lease. Tenant shall pay any
such Late Charge on demand.

                                  ARTICLE XXIX

                Limitation of Liability; Definition of "Landlord"

      Section 29.01. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary provided in this
Lease, each and every term, covenant, condition and provision of this Lease, is
hereby made specifically subject to the provisions of this Article XXIX. The
term "Landlord" as used in this Lease means only the owner or lessor for the
time being of the Demised Premises so that in the event of any conveyance of
such interest (and the transfer to the transferee of any funds then being held
under this Lease by such owner), the assigning Landlord shall be and hereby is
entirely freed and relieved of any and all obligations of Landlord hereunder
thereafter accruing, and it shall be deemed without further agreement between
the parties and such grantee(s) that the grantee has assumed and agreed to
observe and perform all future obligations of Landlord hereunder. It is
specifically understood and agreed that notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein provided or otherwise provided at law or in equity, there shall be
absolutely no personal liability to the Landlord in excess of its interest in
the Demised Premises (whether the same be an individual, joint venture, limited
liability company, tenancy in common, firm or partnership, general, limited or
otherwise) or on the part of the members of any firm, limited liability company,
partnership or joint venture or other unincorporated Landlord with respect to
any of the terms, covenants and/or conditions of this Lease. In the event of a
breach or default by Landlord or any of its obligations under this Lease, Tenant
shall look solely to the interest in the Demised Premises of the then Landlord
for the satisfaction of each and every remedy of Tenant, such exculpation of
personal and additional liability which is in excess of such interest in the
Demised Premises to be absolute and without any exception whatsoever.

                                   Definitions

those situations beyond either party's control, including by way of example and
not by way of limitation, acts of God; accidents; repairs; strikes; shortages of
labor, supplies or materials; inclement weather; or, where applicable, the
passage of time while waiting for an adjustment of insurance proceeds. Any time
limits required to be met by either party hereunder, whether specifically made
subject to Force Majeure or not, except those related to the payment of Basic
Rent or Additional Rent and except as to the time periods set forth in Article
XVIII, shall, unless specifically stated to the contrary elsewhere in this
Lease, be automatically extended by the number of days by which any performance
called for is delayed due to Force Majeure.

      Section 31.01. Partial Validity. If any term or provision of this Lease or
the application thereof to any party or circumstances shall to any extent be
invalid or unenforceable, the remainder of this Lease or the application of such
term or provision to parties or circumstances other than those to which it is
held invalid or unenforceable, shall not be affected thereby, and each term and
provision of this Lease shall be valid and enforced to the fullest extent
permitted by law.

      Section 31.02. Waivers. One or more waivers by either party of the
obligation of the other to perform any covenant or condition shall not be
construed as a waiver of a subsequent breach of the same or any other covenant
or condition. The receipt of Basic Rent and/or Additional Rent by Landlord, with
knowledge of any breach of this Lease by Tenant or of any default on the part of
Tenant in the observance or performance of any of the conditions or covenants of
this Lease, shall not be deemed to be a waiver of any provision of this Lease.
Neither acceptance of the keys nor any other act or thing done by Landlord or
any agent or employee during the Term herein demised shall be deemed to be an
acceptance of a surrender of the Demised Premises, excepting only an agreement
in writing signed by Landlord accepting or agreeing to accept such a surrender.

      Section 31.03. Number, Gender. Wherever herein the singular number is
used, the same shall include the plural, and the masculine gender shall include
the feminine and neuter genders.

      Section 31.04. Successors, Assigns. The terms, covenants and conditions
herein contained shall be binding upon and inure to the benefit of the

parties to this Lease.

      Section 31.06. Entire Agreement. This document recites the entire and only
agreement between the parties relating to the leasing of the Demised Premises;
and no unwritten statements or representations or prior written matter not
contained in this document shall have any force or effect. This Lease shall not
be modified in any way or terminated except by a writing executed by both
parties.

      Section 31.07. Landlord. The "Landlord" means only the holder, for the
time being, of Landlord's interest under this Lease so that in the event of any
transfer of title to the Demised Premises Landlord shall be and hereby is
entirely freed and relieved of all obligations of Landlord hereunder accruing

                                       32
<PAGE>

after such transfer, and it shall be deemed without further agreement between
the parties that such grantee, transferee or assignee has assumed and agreed to
observe and perform all obligations of Landlord hereunder arising during the
period it is the holder of Landlord's interest hereunder.

      Section 31.08. Words of Duty. Whenever in this Lease any words of
obligation or duty are used, such words or expressions shall have the same force
and effect as though made in the form of covenants.

      Section 31.09. Cumulative Remedies. The specified remedies to which
Landlord or Tenant may resort under the terms of this Lease are cumulative and
are not intended to be exclusive of any other remedies or means of redress to
which Landlord or Tenant may lawfully be entitled in case of any breach or
threatened breach of any provision of this Lease.

      Section 31.10. No Option. The submission of this Lease to Tenant for
examination and/or execution does not constitute a reservation of, or option
for, the Demised Premises; and this Lease becomes effective as a Lease only upon
execution and delivery thereof by Landlord and Tenant.

      Section 31.11. Accord and Satisfaction. No payment by Tenant or receipt by
Landlord of a lesser amount than the Basic Rent and Additional Rent payable
hereunder shall be deemed to be other than a payment on account of the earliest
stipulated monthly Basic Rent and Additional Rent, nor shall any endorsement or
statement on any check or any letter accompanying any check or payment for Basic
Rent or Additional Rent be deemed an accord and satisfaction, and Landlord may
accept such check or payment without prejudice to Landlord's right to recover
the balance of such Basic Rent and Additional Rent or pursue any other remedy
provided herein or by law.

      Section 31.12. Corporate Authority. If Tenant is a corporation, Tenant
represents and warrants that this Lease and the Tenant's execution of this Lease
has been duly authorized and approved by the Tenant's Board of Directors. The
undersigned officers and representatives of the corporation executing this Lease
on behalf of Tenant represent and warrant that they are officers of the
corporation with authority to execute this Lease on behalf of the corporation.

      Section 31.13. Lease Commencement. Notwithstanding anything contained
herein to the contrary, if Landlord, for any reason whatsoever including Force
Majeure and Landlord's negligence, cannot deliver possession of the Demised
Premises to Tenant at the commencement of the agreed Term as set forth in
Section 2.01, this Lease shall not be void or voidable, nor shall Landlord be
liable to Tenant for any loss or damage resulting therefrom, but in that event,
the Term shall be for the full Term as specified in Section 2.01 to commence
from and after the date Landlord shall have delivered possession of the Demised
Premises to Tenant, and, if requested by Landlord or Tenant, Landlord and Tenant

permitted to use any portion of the parking area for on-site storage.

      Section 31.17. Assumption. It shall be a condition precedent to the merger

Persons and to the sale or other disposition of all or substantially all of the
assets of Lessee to one or more Persons that the surviving entity or transferee
of assets, as the case may be, shall deliver to Lessor, and any assignee of any
interest of Lessor, an acknowledged instrument assuming all obligations,
covenants and responsibilities of Lessee hereunder

      Section 31.18. No Merger. There shall be no merger of this Lease or of the
leasehold estate hereby created with the fee estate in the Premises by reason of
the fact that the same person acquires or holds, directly or indirectly, this
Lease or the leasehold estate hereby created or any interest herein or in such
leasehold estate as well as the fee estate in the Premises or any interest in
such fee estate

such counterparts shall be deemed to constitute but one and the same
instrument), and shall have been delivered by each of the parties to the other.

                                  ARTICLE XXXII

                                 Renewal Option

      Section 32.01. Tenant is hereby granted one (1) option to renew (the
"Renewal Option") this Lease upon the following terms and conditions:

      (A) At the time of the exercise of the Renewal Option and at the
      commencement of the renewal term (the "Renewal Term"), the Tenant shall
      not be in default of any of the terms and provisions of this Lease, and
      shall be in possession of the Demised Premises pursuant to this Lease.

                                       34
<PAGE>

      (B) Notice of the exercise of the Renewal Option shall be sent to the
      Landlord in writing at least twenty-four (24) months before the expiration
      of the current Term of this Lease, TIME HEREBY BEING MADE OF THE ESSENCE.

      (C) The Renewal Term shall be for a period of five (5) years, commencing
      at the expiration of the twentieth (20th) Lease Year. All of the terms and
      conditions of this Lease, other than the Basic Rent, shall apply during
      the Renewal Term.

      (D) Should Tenant exercise the Renewal Option in accordance with the
      provisions of this Article, within forty-five (45) days after receipt of
      Tenant's notice of intent to exercise the Renewal Option, Landlord shall
      provide to Tenant, in writing a statement indicating Landlord's
      calculation of the fair market value of the annual Basic Rent for the
      first Lease Year of the Renewal Term (the "FMV Rent"). In calculating the
      FMV Rent for the first Lease Year of the Renewal Term, Landlord shall look
      to arms-length transactions between an unrelated landlord and tenant in
      other comparable buildings, in the geographical area in which the Demised
      Premises are located, taking into account all generally applicable terms
      of tenancy for comparable leases of comparable premises in the Suffolk
      County, New York marketplace at the time of calculation. Tenant shall have
      twenty (20) days from receipt of Landlord's calculation of the FMV Rent
      for the first Lease Year of the Renewal Term in which to accept or reject
      such calculation. Tenant's failure to object within such twenty (20) day
      period shall be deemed Tenant's acceptance of such calculation. In the
      event that Tenant disputes Landlord's calculation, the parties shall seek
      to reach a mutually acceptable amount of the FMV Rent during the first
      Lease Year of the Renewal Term. In the event that the parties are unable
      to reach such mutual agreement within fifteen (15) days of receipt by
      Landlord of Tenant's objection, the parties shall engage the services of a
      mutually acceptable independent MAI appraiser experienced with properties
      located within the geographical area in which the Demised Premises are
      located. The cost of the third party appraiser shall be paid by Tenant.
      The determination of such appraiser shall be binding upon both parties.
      Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Basic Rent for the first Lease Year of
      the Renewal Terms shall not be less than the Basic Rent for the
      immediately preceding Lease Year.

      (E) During each subsequent Lease Year of the Renewal Term, the Basic Rent
      payable by Tenant shall be equal to the greater of: (i) the then-current
      FMV Rent for the Demised Premises, calculated in accordance with the
      provisions set forth in Section 32.01(D) above; or (ii) the Base Rent
      payable by Tenant for the immediately preceding Lease Year.

REMIC 1

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

Balance of each such REMIC 3 Regular Interest.

For purposes of calculating the amount of Uncertificated Accrued Interest for the REMIC 1 Regular Interests for any Distribution Date, the aggregate amount of any Net Prepayment Interest
Shortfalls and Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred in respect of the Group I Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated to REMIC 1 Regular Interests IX and the aggregate amount of any Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls and Relief Act Interest
Shortfalls incurred in respect of the Group II Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated to REMIC 1 Regular Interest IIX.

Section 1.04          Rights of the NIMS
Insurer.

(a)        Each of the rights of the NIMS Insurer set forth in this Agreement shall exist so long as the Insured NIM Notes remain
outstanding; provided, however, the NIMS Insurer shall not have any rights hereunder (except as provided in Section 9.01) so long as any NIMS Insurer Default is continuing.

(b)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary anywhere in this Agreement, all rights and benefits of the NIMS Insurer
hereunder shall permanently terminate upon such time as the Insured NIM Notes shall no longer be outstanding.

ARTICLE II

CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS;

ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES

Section 2.01          Conveyance of Mortgage Loans.

The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey to the Trust, without recourse, all the right, title and
interest of the Depositor, including any security interest therein for the benefit of the Depositor, in and to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, the rights of the Depositor under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (other than the
Depositor’s rights under Section 17 thereof) and all other assets included or to be included in REMIC 1.  Such assignment includes all scheduled payments on the Mortgage Loans due after the Cut-off Date and all unscheduled collections in respect
of the Mortgage Loans received after the Cut-off Date (other than the portion of such collections due on or prior to the Cut-off Date).  The REMIC 1 Regular Interests, REMIC 1 Regular Interest IX and the Class R‐1 Interest shall collectively be a
separate series of beneficial interests in the assets of the Trust consisting of the Trust Fund assets included in the definition of REMIC 1 pursuant to Section 3806(b)(2) of the Statutory Trust Statute.  The Depositor herewith delivers to the Trustee an
executed copy of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and the PMI Policy.  In addition, on or prior to the Closing Date, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall execute the Swap Agreement and the Depositor hereby directs the Supplemental Interest Trust
Trustee to do so.

If the assignment and transfer of the Mortgage Loans and the other property specified in Section 2.01 from the Depositor to the Trust pursuant to this Agreement is held or deemed not to
be a sale or is held or deemed to be a pledge of security for a loan, the Depositor intends that the rights and obligations of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement and that, in such event, (i) the Depositor shall be deemed to
have granted and does hereby grant to the Trust as of the Closing Date a perfected, first priority security interest in the entire right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the Mortgage Loans and all other property conveyed to the Trust pursuant to this
Section 2.01 and all proceeds thereof and (ii) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor does hereby deliver to, and deposit with, the Trustee as custodian (in which capacity it will, unless otherwise specified, be
acting under this Article II) the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so transferred and assigned (with respect to each Mortgage Loan, a “Mortgage File”):

(a)        the original Mortgage Note, endorsed in blank or in the following form:  “Pay to the order of Deutsche Bank
National Trust Company, as Trustee under the applicable agreement, without recourse,” with all prior and intervening endorsements showing a complete chain of endorsement from the originator to the Person so endorsing to the Trustee or (in the case of not more
than 1.00% of the Mortgage Loans, by aggregate principal balance as of the Cut‐off Date) a copy of such original Mortgage Note with an accompanying Lost Note Affidavit executed by the Seller;

(b)        the original Mortgage, noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loan and language indicating that the Mortgage
Loan is a MOM Loan if the Mortgage Loan is a MOM loan, with evidence of recording thereon, and a copy, certified by the appropriate recording office, of the recorded power of attorney, if the Mortgage was executed pursuant to a power of attorney, with evidence of
recording thereon;

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

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

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

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

Except with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which MERS is identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage as the mortgagee of record, the Servicer, in its
capacity as Seller, shall promptly (and in no event later than thirty (30) Business Days, subject to extension upon a mutual agreement between the Servicer and the Trustee), following the later of the Closing Date and the date of receipt by the Servicer of the
recording information for a Mortgage submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at no expense to the Trust, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or the Depositor, in the appropriate public office for real property records, each Assignment referred to in Sections
2.01(c) and (d) above and shall execute each original Assignment referred to in clause (c) above in the following form:  “Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee under applicable agreement, without recourse.”  In the event that any such
Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, shall promptly prepare or cause to be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter cause
each such Assignment to be duly recorded.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Assignments shall not be required to be completed and submitted for recording with respect to any Mortgage Loan if each Rating Agency does not require recordation in order for such
Rating Agency to assign the initial ratings to the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates, the Class B Certificates and the Other NIM Notes and the initial shadow rating to the Insured NIM Notes, without giving effect to any insurance policy issued by the
NIMS Insurer; provided, however, each such Assignment shall be submitted for recording by the Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, in the manner described above, at no expense to the Trust, the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee upon the earliest to occur of: 
(i) reasonable direction by Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights, (ii) the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default, (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Seller, (iv) the
occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 hereof and (v) if the Seller is not the Servicer and with respect to any one Assignment, the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related
Mortgage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Servicer is unable to pay the cost of recording the Assignments, such expense shall be paid by the Trustee and shall be reimbursable to the Trustee as an Extraordinary Trust Fund Expense.

In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the MERS® System, the Depositor further agrees that it shall cause, within 30 Business Days after the Closing Date, the
MERS® System to indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the Depositor to the Trust in accordance with this Agreement by including (or deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans which are repurchased in accordance with this Agreement) in such computer
files (a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Trust and (b) the code in the field “Pool Field” which identifies the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such Mortgage Loans. The Depositor further agrees that it shall not,
and shall not permit the Servicer to, and the Servicer agrees that it shall not, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any Mortgage Loan during the term of this Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the
terms of this Agreement.

If any of the documents referred to in Sections 2.01(b), (c), (d) or (e) above (collectively, the “Recording Documents”) has as of the Closing Date been submitted for recording but
either (x) has not been returned from the applicable public recording office or (y) has been lost or such public recording office has retained the original of such document, the obligations of the Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, to deliver such
Recording Documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon (1) delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian of a copy of each such Recording Document certified by the Seller in the case of (x) above or the applicable public recording office in the case
of (y) above to be a true and complete copy of the original that was submitted for recording and (2) if such copy is certified by the Seller, delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian promptly upon receipt thereof, and in any event no later than
one year after the Closing Date, of either the original or a copy of such Recording Document certified by the applicable public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original.  In instances where, due to a delay on the part of the recording
office where any such Recording Documents have been delivered for recordation, the Recording Documents cannot be delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian within one year after the Closing Date, the Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver to
the Trustee or the applicable Custodian within such time period an Officer’s Certificate stating the date by which the Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, expects to receive such Recording Documents from the applicable recording office.  In the event
that Recording Documents have still not been received by the Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, and delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian by the date specified in its previous Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Trustee or the applicable
Custodian, as the case may be, the Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian by such date an additional Officer’s Certificate stating a revised date by which the Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller,
expects to receive the applicable Recording Documents.  This procedure shall be repeated until the Recording Documents have been received by the Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, and delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian.  If the
original lender’s title insurance policy was not delivered pursuant to Section 2.01(f) above, the Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian promptly after receipt thereof, and
in any event within 120 days after the Closing Date, the original lender’s title insurance policy.  The Servicer, in its capacity as the Seller, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian promptly upon receipt thereof
any other original documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents evidencing an assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan.

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

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

Section 2.02          Acceptance of REMIC 1 by the Trustee.

Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph below, the Trustee or a Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee, as applicable, acknowledges receipt of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 above and all other assets included in the definition of “REMIC 1” under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (vi) (to the extent of amounts deposited into the
Distribution Account) and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage File, and all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “REMIC 1” in trust for the
exclusive use and benefit of all present and future holders of REMIC 1 Regular Interests and the Class R-1 Interest.

The Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, agrees, for the benefit of the holders of REMIC 1 Regular Interests and the Class R-1 Interest, to review each Mortgage File on or before the
Closing Date, with respect to each Mortgage Loan and to certify to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor and the Servicer in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit F‐1 that, as to each Closing Date Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage
Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than
such documents described in Section 2.01(e)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by the Trustee or the Washington Mutual Custodian, as applicable and are not mutilated, torn
or defaced unless initialed by the related borrower and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on the Trustee’s examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (i),
(ii), (ix), (xii), (xiv) (to the extent of the Periodic Rate Cap for the first Adjustment Date and subsequent Adjustment Dates) and (xvi) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. 
It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, neither the Trustee nor any Custodian is under any duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine whether they are
genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose (including with respect to Section 2.01(f), whether such title insurance policy (a) contains all necessary endorsements, (b) insures the priority of the Mortgage as a first or second lien or (c)
whether the interest vested in the Mortgagor is a fee interest) or whether they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face or (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents
specified in clause (e) of Section 2.01.

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

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

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

(a)        Upon discovery or receipt of notice of any materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, the
Mortgage File or of the breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the
Certificateholders (it being understood that (i) in the case of any such representation or warranty made to the knowledge or the best of knowledge of the Seller, as to which the Seller has no knowledge, without regard to the Seller’s lack of knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation or warranty being inaccurate at the time it was made or (ii) with respect to the representation and warranty set forth in the last sentence of Section 6(xxxix), Section 6(xlvi), the first sentence of Section 6(xlvii),
Section 6(lxi) and Section 6(lxiv) of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, a breach of any such representation or warranty shall in and of itself be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan), the
Trustee shall promptly notify the Depositor, the Seller, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date the Seller was
notified of such missing document, defect or breach (except as described in Section 2.03(e)), and if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the Servicer (or, in accordance with
Section 3.02(b), the Trustee) shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC 1 at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Seller was notified (subject
to Section 2.03(e)) of such missing document, defect or breach, if and to the extent that the Seller is obligated to do so under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement.  The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Collection
Account, and the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File, and the Trustee or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable, shall
execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall furnish to it or such Custodian, as applicable, and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.  In
furtherance of the foregoing, if the Seller is not a member of MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is registered on the MERS® System, the Servicer, in its capacity as Seller, at its own expense and without any right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to
execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations. 
Neither the Trustee nor any Custodian shall have any further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File.  In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, if so provided in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller may cause such
Mortgage Loan to be removed from REMIC 1 (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d).  It is understood
and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure or to repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Certificateholders, the Trust, the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Delaware Trustee and the NIMS Insurer.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

(e)        Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a
“qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties.  In connection therewith, the Servicer in its capacity as
Seller shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to
such affected Mortgage Loan.  Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a) and Section 2.03(d).  The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in
the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.

Section 2.04          Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Servicer.

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

execution, delivery and performance by the Servicer of, or compliance by the Servicer with, this Agreement or the consummation by the Servicer of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, except for such consents, approvals, authorizations or orders, if any,
that have been obtained prior to the Closing Date;

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

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

Loans (including any waiver of a Prepayment Charge in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that is related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer may waive any Prepayment Charge or part of a

foreclosed, or charged-off; and

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

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

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING

OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

Section 3.01          Servicer to Act as Servicer.

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

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

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

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

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

To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer shall seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes.  Subject only to the
above‐described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the respective Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through Sub‐Servicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done
any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration in accordance with policies and procedures generally accepted in the mortgage banking industry.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer in its own name or in the name
of a Sub‐Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trust when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment in accordance with the servicing standards set forth above, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Trust
and the Trustee, and upon notice to the Trustee, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties and to
institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed‐in‐lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such properties, on behalf of the Trust and the Certificateholders.  The Servicer
shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with applicable state and federal law and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be provided to them thereby.  The Servicer shall also comply in the performance of this Agreement with
all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any standard hazard insurance policy.  Subject to Section 3.17, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust shall execute, at the written direction of the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer and any
Sub‐Servicer such documents as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer or any Sub‐Servicer to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder, and the Trustee on behalf of the Trust hereby grants to the Servicer and each
Sub-Servicer a power of attorney to carry out such duties including a power of attorney to take title to Mortgaged Properties after foreclosure on behalf of the Trust and the Certificateholders.  The Trustee on behalf of the Trust, at the direction of the
Servicer, shall execute a separate power of attorney in favor of (and furnish such power of attorney to) the Servicer and/or each Sub-Servicer for the purposes described herein to the extent necessary or desirable to enable the Servicer to perform its duties
hereunder.  The Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer or any Sub‐Servicers under such powers of attorney.

The Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, in its own name or in the name of a Sub-Servicer, when the Servicer believes it is appropriate in its
best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS® System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trust, 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 Trust and its successors and assigns. Any reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence or as a
result of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue operations in connection with the MERS® System, shall be reimbursable to the Servicer by withdrawal from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11.

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

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan (except as provided in Section 4.04) and the
Servicer shall not (i) permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Rate, reduce or increase the principal balance (except for reductions resulting from actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date
on such Mortgage Loan (unless, as provided in Section 3.07, the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) or (ii) permit any modification, waiver or amendment of
any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (A) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (B) cause any Trust REMIC to fail
to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or contributions after the startup day under the REMIC Provisions.

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

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

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

(a)        The Servicer may enter into Sub‐Servicing Agreements provided (i) that such agreements would not result in a
withdrawal or a downgrading by any Rating Agency of the ratings on any Class of Certificates, any of the Other NIM Notes or any of the Insured NIM Notes (without giving effect to any insurance policy issued by the NIMS Insurer), as evidenced by a letter to that
effect delivered by each Rating Agency to the Depositor and the NIMS Insurer and (ii) that, except in the case of any Sub‐Servicing Agreements the Servicer may enter into with Washington Mutual, Inc. or any Affiliate thereof, the NIMS Insurer shall have
consented to such Sub‐Servicing Agreements (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) with Sub‐Servicers, for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans.  The Trustee on behalf of the Trust is hereby authorized to acknowledge, at
the request of the Servicer, any Sub‐Servicing Agreement that meets the requirements applicable to Sub‐Servicing Agreements set forth in this Agreement and that is otherwise permitted under this Agreement.

Each Sub‐Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent
required by applicable law to enable such Sub‐Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the related Sub‐Servicing Agreement, (ii) an institution approved as a mortgagee by the Department of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to
Section 203 of the National Housing Act of 1934, as amended, or an institution the deposit accounts in which are insured by the FDIC and (iii) a Fannie Mae approved mortgage servicer.  Each Sub‐Servicing Agreement must impose on the related
Sub‐Servicer requirements conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08.  The Servicer will examine each Sub‐Servicing Agreement and will be familiar with the terms thereof.  The terms of any Sub‐Servicing Agreement will not
be inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement.  The Servicer and the Sub‐Servicers may enter into and make amendments to the Sub‐Servicing Agreements or enter into different forms of Sub‐Servicing Agreements; provided, however,
that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially adverse to the
interests of the Certificateholders, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any variation without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights from the
provisions set forth in Section 3.08 relating to credits and charges to the Sub‐Servicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the Sub‐Servicers to the Servicer are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and
therefore prohibited.  The Servicer shall deliver to the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee copies of all Sub‐Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Servicer’s execution and delivery of such
instruments.

(b)        As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer (except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this
paragraph), for the benefit of the Trust and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Sub‐Servicer under the related Sub‐Servicing Agreement and, subject to the last sentence of this paragraph, of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement including, without limitation, any obligation to make advances in respect of delinquent payments as required by a Sub‐Servicing Agreement, or to purchase or otherwise remedy as contemplated herein a Mortgage Loan on account of missing or
defective documentation or on account of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant, as described in Section 2.03(a).  Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub‐Servicing Agreements,
and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans.  The Servicer shall pay
the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement, to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans or
(ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.  Enforcement of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement against the Seller shall be effected by the Servicer to the extent it
is not the Seller, and otherwise by the Trustee, in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph.

Section 3.03          Successor Sub‐Servicers.

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

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

Section 3.04          Liability of the Servicer.

Notwithstanding any Sub‐Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Sub‐Servicer or reference to
actions taken through a Sub‐Servicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trust and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01
without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Sub‐Servicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from a Sub‐Servicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were
servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.  The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub‐Servicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such Sub‐Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit
or modify such indemnification and no such indemnification shall be an expense of the Trust.

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

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

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

In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon
assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under each Sub‐Servicing Agreement that the Servicer may have entered into, unless the Trustee elects to terminate any Sub‐Servicing Agreement in accordance with its terms as provided in
Section 3.03.  Upon such assumption, the Trustee, its designee or the successor servicer for the Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 shall be deemed, subject to Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the Servicer’s interest therein and
to have replaced the Servicer as a party to each Sub‐Servicing Agreement to the same extent as if each Sub‐Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that (i) the Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or
obligations under any Sub‐Servicing Agreement that arose before it ceased to be the Servicer and (ii) none of the Trustee, its designee or any successor Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed any liability or obligation of the Servicer that arose before
it ceased to be the Servicer.

The Servicer at its own expense and without reimbursement shall, upon request of the Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Sub‐Servicing
Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by or on behalf of it, and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub‐Servicing Agreements to the assuming
party.

Section 3.07          Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.

The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent
with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any applicable insurance policies, follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account.  Consistent with the
foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any penalty interest, or (ii) extend the due dates for the Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided that
any extension pursuant to this clause (ii) shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except as provided below.  In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Servicer
shall make timely advances on such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.04 and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements, subject to Section 4.04(d)
pursuant to which the Servicer shall not be required to make any such advances that are Nonrecoverable Advances.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Servicer, such default is reasonably
foreseeable, the Servicer, consistent with the standards set forth in Section 3.01, may also waive, modify or vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including modifications that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of principal or interest or extend
the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan, accept payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated Principal Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan (such payment, a “Short Pay‐off”) or consent to the postponement
of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant indulgence to any Mortgagor; provided, that in the judgment of the Servicer, any such modification, waiver or amendment could reasonably be expected to result in collections and other recoveries in respect of
such Mortgage Loans in excess of Net Liquidation Proceeds that would be recovered upon the foreclosure of, or other realization upon, such Mortgage Loan and provided further, that the NIMS Insurer’s prior written consent shall be required for any modification,
waiver or amendment if the aggregate number of outstanding Mortgage Loans which have been modified, waived or amended exceeds 5% of the number of Closing Date Mortgage Loans as of the Cut‐off Date. 

Section 3.08          Sub‐Servicing Accounts.

In those cases where a Sub‐Servicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to a Sub‐Servicing Agreement, such Sub‐Servicer shall be required to establish and maintain one or
more segregated accounts (collectively, the “Sub‐Servicing Account”).  The Sub‐Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall be entitled “Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust for registered Holders
of Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐9, Asset‐Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐9.  Such Sub‐Servicer shall be required to deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits
payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after such Sub‐Servicer’s receipt thereof, all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by such
Sub‐Servicer less its servicing compensation to the extent permitted by the related Sub‐Servicing Agreement, and shall thereafter deposit such amounts in the Sub‐Servicing Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of such
funds into the clearing account.  Such Sub‐Servicer shall thereafter be required to deposit all such proceeds in the Collection Account or remit such proceeds to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than the Determination Date
following the deposit of such amounts in the Sub‐Servicing Account.  For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on the Mortgage Loans when such Sub‐Servicer receives such payments.

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

The Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more segregated accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”).  Servicing Accounts shall be
Eligible Accounts.  The Servicer shall deposit in the clearing account (which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily
basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, all collections from the Mortgagors (or related advances from Sub‐Servicers) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums and comparable items for
the account of the Mortgagors (“Escrow Payments”) collected on account of the Mortgage Loans and shall thereafter deposit such Escrow Payments in the Servicing Accounts, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of such funds in the
clearing account, for the purpose of effecting the payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement.  Withdrawals of amounts from a Servicing Account may be made only to (i) effect payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance
premiums, and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Servicer (or a Sub‐Servicer to the extent provided in the related Sub‐Servicing Agreement) out of related collections for any advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and
assessments) and Section 3.14 (with respect to hazard insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account;
(v) clear and terminate the Servicing Account upon the termination of the Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement in accordance with Article IX or (vi) recover amounts deposited in
error.  As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer or Sub‐Servicers shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Servicing Accounts is
insufficient, to pay such interest from its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor.  To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall determine whether any such payments are made by the Mortgagor in a manner
and at a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure of a tax lien.  The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills within such time and shall effect payments of all such bills irrespective
of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments; provided, however, that such advances shall constitute Servicing Advances.

Section 3.10          Collection Account and Distribution Account.

(a)        On behalf of the Trust, the Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or
more segregated accounts (such account or accounts, the “Collection Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Trust and the Certificateholders.  On behalf of the Trust, the Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the clearing account
(which account must be an Eligible Account) in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mortgage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Servicer’s
receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the Collection Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account, as and when received or as otherwise required hereunder, the following payments and collections
received or made by it subsequent to the Cut‐off Date (other than in respect of principal or interest on the related Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut‐off Date or payments (other than Principal Prepayments) received by it on or prior to the
Cut‐off Date but allocable to a Due Period subsequent thereto):

(i)         all payments on account of
principal, including Principal Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;

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

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

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

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

(vi)       all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased
or purchased in accordance with Section 2.03, Section 3.16(c) or Section 9.01 and all Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 2.03;

(vii)      all Substitution Adjustments;

(viii)      all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer;
and

(ix)       without duplication, all payments of claims
received by the Servicer under the PMI Policy, if any.

For purposes of the immediately preceding sentence, the Cut‐off Date with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to be the date of substitution.

The aggregate amount deposited in the Collection Account on any date pursuant to this Section 3.10(a) may be net of any amounts permitted to be withdrawn by the Servicer from the Collection
Account on such date pursuant to Section 3.11(a).

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Accounts shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, any Prepayment
Interest Excess and payments in the nature of late payment charges, NSF fees, reconveyance fees, prepayment charges paid by Mortgagors upon voluntary partial prepayment of certain mortgage loans, assumption fees and other similar fees and charges (other than
Prepayment Charges) need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account and shall, upon collection, belong to the Servicer as additional compensation for its servicing activities.  In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any
amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b)        On behalf of the Trust, the Trustee shall establish and maintain one or more segregated accounts (such account or
accounts, the “Distribution Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Trust and the Certificateholders.  On behalf of the Trust, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee in immediately available funds for deposit on the same day in the
Distribution Account on or before 3:00 p.m. New York time (i) on the Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available Funds (calculated without regard to the references in the definition thereof to amounts that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account)
for the related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account, the amount of all Prepayment Charges on the Prepayment Charge Schedule collected by the Servicer in connection with any of the Mortgage Loans and any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment
Amounts then on deposit in the Collection Account and the amount of any funds reimbursable to an Advancing Person pursuant to Section 3.27 and (ii) on each Business Day as of the commencement of which the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds
$75,000 following any withdrawals pursuant to the next succeeding sentence, the amount of such excess, but only if the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account.”  If
the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 as of the commencement of business on any Business Day and the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account,”
the Servicer shall, on or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on such Business Day, withdraw from the Collection Account any and all amounts payable or reimbursable to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Seller or any Sub‐Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11
and shall pay such amounts to the Persons entitled thereto.  In order to comply with its duties under the U.S.A. Patriot Act, the Trustee shall obtain and verify certain information and documentation from the parties hereto, including, but not limited to, each
party’s name, address, and other identifying information.

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

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

(i)         any Advances, as required pursuant
to Section 4.04, unless delivered directly to the Trustee by an Advancing Person;

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

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

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

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

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

Section 3.11          Withdrawals from the Collection Account and Distribution Account.

(a)        The Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account, for any of the following purposes
or as described in Section 4.04, without priority:

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

(ii)        subject to Section 3.16(d), to
reimburse the Servicer for Advances, but only to the extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net of the related Servicing Fees) of Monthly Payments on the related Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.04;

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

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

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

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

Trustee, as the case may be, for enforcement expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the breach or defect giving rise to the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 of this Agreement that were included in the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loan, including any
expenses arising out of the enforcement of the purchase obligation; provided, however, that the reimbursement to the NIMS Insurer pursuant to this clause shall be limited to an annual amount of $25,000;

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

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

The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on an individual Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account, to the extent held by
or on behalf of it, pursuant to subclauses (ii), (iii), (v), (vi), (viii) and (ix) above.  The Servicer shall provide written notification to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, on or prior to the next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date, upon making any
withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclause (vii) above.

(b)        The Trustee shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Distribution Account, for any of the following purposes,

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

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

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

(y)        demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon actual notice by a Responsible Officer of
the Trustee that such Permitted Investment would not constitute a Permitted Investment in respect of funds thereafter on deposit in the Investment Account.

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

(c)        All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Distribution Account held by or on behalf of
the Trustee shall be for the benefit of the Trustee and shall be subject to its withdrawal at any time.  The Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account, from its own funds, the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted
Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon realization of such loss.

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

Section 3.13          Reserved.

Section 3.14          Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Errors and Omissions and Fidelity Coverage.

(a)        The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire insurance with extended coverage on the related
Mortgaged Property in an amount which is at least equal to the least of (i) the then current principal balance of such Mortgage Loan, (ii) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property
on a replacement cost basis and (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such Mortgaged Property, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause contained in
the related hazard insurance policy.  The Servicer shall also cause to be maintained fire insurance with extended coverage on each REO Property in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which
are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became an REO Property, plus accrued interest at the Mortgage Rate and related Servicing Advances.  The Servicer will comply in the
performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard policies.  Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the
property subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the procedures that the Servicer would follow in servicing loans held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage
Note) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.23, if received in respect of an REO
Property.  Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of
such Mortgage Loan so permit.  It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such
additional insurance.  If the Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been made available, the Servicer
will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof.  Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance
available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program).

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

(b)        The Servicer shall obtain (to the extent commercially available) and maintain fidelity bond and errors and omissions
coverage acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with respect to its obligations under this Agreement, unless the Servicer or any of its Affiliates has obtained a waiver of such Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac requirements from either Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The
Servicer shall provide the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer (upon such party’s reasonable request) with copies of any such insurance policies and fidelity bond.  The Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the Servicer
has such errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Servicer. 

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

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

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder
by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatever.  For purposes of this Section 3.15, the term
“assumption” is deemed to also include a sale of the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.

Section 3.16          Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

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

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

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

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

Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, if such environmental audit reveals, or if the Servicer has knowledge or notice, that the Mortgaged Property securing the
Mortgage Loan contains such wastes or substances or is within one mile of the site of such wastes or substances, the Servicer shall not foreclose or accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure without the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer.

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

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

(c)        The Holder of the Class C Certificates (except if such Holder is the Seller or any of its Affiliates) may at its option
purchase from REMIC 1 any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property that is 90 days or more delinquent or that has been otherwise in default for 90 days or more, which such Holder determines in good faith will otherwise become subject to foreclosure proceedings (evidence
of such determination to be delivered in writing to the Trustee prior to purchase), at a price equal to the Purchase Price; provided, however, that the Holder of the Class C Certificates shall purchase any such Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties on the basis of
delinquency or default, purchasing first the Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties that became delinquent or otherwise in default on an earlier date.  For the avoidance of doubt, the Holder of the Class C Certificates in exercising its right to purchase
Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Section 3.16(c) shall not be subject to any requirement of this Article III (other than the requirements of this Section 3.16(c)).  In the event the Holder of the Class C Certificates does not exercise its option to purchase from
REMIC 1 any such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, the NIMS Insurer shall be entitled to purchase such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property; provided, however, that the NIM Insurer shall purchase any such Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties on the basis of
delinquency or default, purchasing first the Mortgage Loans or related REO Properties that became delinquent or otherwise in default on an earlier date.  The Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property purchased hereunder shall be deposited in
the Collection Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release or cause to be released to the Holder of the Class C Certificates or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, the related Mortgage File and the
Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Holder of the Class C Certificates or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, shall furnish and as shall be necessary to vest in the
Holder of the Class C Certificates or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, title to any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property released pursuant hereto.  For so long as the indenture trustee under the Indenture is the Holder of the Class C Certificate, the holder
(the “Residual NIM Holder”) of the subordinate note, the owner trust certificate or another instrument representing the right to receive the proceeds of the trust estate securing payments on the NIM Notes after all of the NIM Notes have been paid off
shall be deemed to be the “Holder of the Class C Certificates” for purposes of this Section 3.16(c).  The Trustee shall request from the Residual NIM Holder a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit G attached hereto.  The Trustee may
conclusively rely upon and shall be fully protected in acting or refraining from acting based on such certificate.

(d)        Proceeds received (other than any prepayment charges or premiums received) in connection with any Final Recovery
Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or Gross Subsequent Recoveries, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the following order of priority:  first, to
reimburse the Servicer or any Sub‐Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances, pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii) or (a)(iii); second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery
Determination, or to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to be distributed if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination; and third, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan.  If the amount of the
recovery so allocated to interest is less than the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such recovery will be allocated by the Servicer as follows:  first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; and second, to the
balance of the interest then due and owing.  The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be reimbursed to the Servicer or any Sub‐Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iii).

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

Section 3.17          Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.

(a)        Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full
shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer will promptly notify the Trustee and the applicable Custodian holding the related Mortgage File by a certification in the form of Exhibit E‐2 (which certification shall include a
statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10 have been or will be so deposited) of a Servicing Representative and shall
request delivery to it of the related Mortgage File.  Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee or such Custodian, as applicable, shall promptly release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer and the Servicer is authorized to cause the
removal from the registration on the MERS® System of any such Mortgage Loan, if applicable.  No expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Collection Account or the Distribution
Account.

(b)        From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan, including, for this purpose,
collection under any insurance policy relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Trustee or the applicable Custodian shall, upon request of the Servicer and delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit E‐l,
release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer, and the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, at the direction of the Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings and the Servicer
shall retain such Mortgage File in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  Such Request for Release shall obligate the Servicer to return each and every document previously requested from the Mortgage File to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian
when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to
an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non‐judicially, and the Servicer has
delivered to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian a certificate of a Servicing Representative certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.  Upon
receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Representative stating that such Mortgage Loan was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation that are required to be deposited into the Collection Account have been so
deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Trustee or the applicable Custodian to the Servicer or its designee.

(c)        At the direction of the Servicer and upon written certification of a Servicing Representative, each of the Trustee or
the applicable Custodian, on behalf of the Trust, shall execute and deliver to the Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents reasonably necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or
to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity,
or shall execute and deliver to the Servicer a power of attorney sufficient to authorize the Servicer or a Sub-Servicer to execute such documents on its behalf, provided that each of the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, on behalf of the Trust, shall be obligated
to execute the documents identified above if necessary to enable the Servicer or a Sub-Servicer to perform their respective duties hereunder or under the Sub-Servicing Agreement.  Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents
be executed by the Trustee or the applicable Custodian and a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required.

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

Section 3.18          Servicing Compensation.

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

Additional servicing compensation in the form of Prepayment Interest Excess, prepayment premiums or charges in connection with voluntary Principal Prepayments in part, assumption or
modification fees, late payment charges, NSF fees, reconveyance fees and other similar fees and charges (other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Servicer only to the extent such fees or charges are received by the Servicer.  The Servicer shall
also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account, and pursuant to Section 3.23(b) to withdraw from any REO Account, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein, subject to
Section 3.12.  The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including premiums for the insurance required by Section 3.14, to the extent such premiums are not paid by the
related Mortgagors or by a Sub‐Servicer, it being understood however, that payment of such premiums by the Servicer shall constitute Servicing Advances and servicing compensation of each Sub‐Servicer, and to the extent provided herein and in
Section 8.05, the fees and expenses of the Trustee) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided herein.

Section 3.19          Reports to the Trustee; Collection Account Statements.

Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall forward to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor a statement prepared by the Servicer setting forth the
status of the Collection Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and withdrawals from the Collection Account of each category of deposit specified in
Section 3.10(a) and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.11.  Such statement may be in the form of the then current Fannie Mae Monthly Accounting Report for its Guaranteed Mortgage Pass‐Through Program with appropriate additions and
changes, and shall also include information as to the aggregate of the outstanding principal balances of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding such Distribution Date.  Copies of such statement shall be provided
by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trustee.

Section 3.20         
Annual Statement as to Compliance.

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

Section 3.21         
Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

Section 3.22          Access to Certain Documentation.

The Servicer shall provide to the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise
authority over any Certificateholder access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans serviced by the Servicer under this Agreement, as may be required by applicable laws and regulations.  Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon
reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it.  In addition, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans serviced by the Servicer under this Agreement sufficient to permit the Certificateholder
to comply with applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC or any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority with respect to investment in the Certificates will be provided to any Certificateholder that is a savings and
loan association, bank or insurance company, upon reasonable request during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it at the expense of the Person requesting such access.

Section 3.23          Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

(a)        The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, on behalf
of the Trust.  The Servicer, on behalf of REMIC 1 (and on behalf of the Trust), shall sell any REO Property as soon as practicable and, in any event, shall either sell any REO Property before the close of the third taxable year after the year REMIC 1
acquires ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or request from the Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days before the day on which the three‐year grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of the
three‐year grace period, unless the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor, to the effect that the holding by REMIC 1 of such REO
Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result in the imposition on any Trust REMIC of taxes on “prohibited transactions” thereof, as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a
REMIC under Federal law at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.  If an extension of the three‐year period is granted, the Servicer shall sell the related REO Property no later than 60 days prior to the expiration of such extension period. 
The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property”
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by any Trust REMIC of any “income from non‐permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any “net income from foreclosure
property” which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions.

(b)        The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO
Property separate and apart from its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, with respect to REO Properties an account held in trust for the Trust (the “REO Account”), which shall be an
Eligible Account.  The Servicer may allow the Collection Account to serve as the REO Account, subject to separate ledgers for each REO Property.  The Servicer may retain or withdraw any interest income paid on funds deposited in the REO Account.

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

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

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

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

To the extent that amounts on deposit in the REO Account with respect to an REO Property are insufficient for the purposes set forth in clauses (i) through (iii) above with respect
to such REO Property, the Servicer shall advance from its own funds as Servicing Advances such amount as is necessary for such purposes if, but only if, the Servicer would make such advances if the Servicer owned the REO Property and if such Servicing Advance would
not constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance.

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

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

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

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

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

unless, in any such case, the Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel (the cost of which shall constitute a Servicing Advance), a copy of which shall be provided to the NIMS Insurer and
the Trustee, to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held by REMIC 1, in which case the Servicer may
take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

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

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

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

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

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

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

(d)        In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section 3.23(c), the Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals
from the REO Account for any REO Property:  (i) to pay itself or any Sub‐Servicer unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of the related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse itself or any Sub‐Servicer for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and
Advances made in respect of such REO Property or the related Mortgage Loan.  On the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account maintained by it and deposit into the Distribution Account in accordance with
Section 3.10(d)(ii), for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01, the income from the related REO Property received during the prior calendar month, net of any withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.23(c) or this
Section 3.23(d).

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

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

(g)        The Servicer shall file information returns with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a trade or
business, reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property and cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property as required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code, respectively.  Such reports shall be in form
and substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code.

Section 3.24          Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.

The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit into the Distribution Account on or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date from its own funds an amount
(“Compensating Interest”) equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for the related Distribution Date resulting solely from Principal Prepayments during the related Prepayment Period and (ii) the amount of
its aggregate Servicing Fee for the most recently ended calendar month.

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

In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with respect to any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to adjustments to Mortgage Rates, Monthly Payments or Stated
Principal Balances that were made by the Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Servicer, upon discovery or receipt of notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the
Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust, the Trustee, the Depositor and any successor servicer in respect of any such liability.  Such indemnities shall survive the termination or
discharge of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3.25 shall not limit the ability of the Servicer to seek recovery of any such amounts from the related Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Note, as permitted by law and
shall not be an expense of the Trust.

Section 3.26          Reserve Fund.

No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders, shall establish and maintain with itself a separate, segregated non-interest bearing trust account titled,
“Reserve Fund, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust for registered Holders of Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006‐9, Asset‐Backed Certificates, Series 2006‐9.”  The Trustee shall account for the right to
receive payments from the Reserve Fund as property that the Trustee holds separate and apart from the REMIC Regular Interests.  On the first Distribution Date, amounts in the Reserve Fund will include any amounts withdrawn from the Interest Coverage
Account.

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

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

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

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

(b)        The Reserve Fund shall be treated as an “outside reserve fund” under applicable Treasury regulations and
shall not be part of any REMIC created hereunder.  For federal and state income tax purposes, the Holders of the Class C Certificates shall be deemed to be the owners of the Reserve Fund and all amounts deposited into the Reserve Fund (other than the initial
deposit therein of $1,000) shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC 3 to REMIC CX in respect of the Class C Interest, and then distributed by REMIC CX to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.  For federal and state income tax purposes,
payments in respect of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code
Section 860G(a)(1).

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

(d)        At the direction of the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates, the Trustee shall
direct any depository institution maintaining the Reserve Fund to invest the funds in such account in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, (i) no later than the Business Day immediately
preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if a Person other than the Trustee or an Affiliate manages or advises such investment, and (ii) no later than the date on which such funds are
required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement, if the Trustee or an Affiliate manages or advises such investment.  If no investment direction of the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates with respect to
the Reserve Fund is received by the Trustee, the Trustee shall invest the funds in the Reserve Fund in Permitted Investments managed by the Trustee or an Affiliate of the kind described in clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Investments.  Notwithstanding
the foregoing, any funds in the Reserve Fund shall be invested in Deutsche Bank Cash Management Fund 541 for so long as such investment complies with clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Investments.  All income and gain earned upon such investment shall
be deposited into the Reserve Fund. 

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

Section 3.27          Advance Facility.

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

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

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

Section 3.28          PMI Policy; Claims Under the
PMI Policy

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

Section 3.29          Swap Agreement.

The Depositor hereby directs the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee to execute and deliver on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust the Swap Agreement and authorizes and directs the
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee to perform its obligations thereunder on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust in accordance with the terms of the Swap Agreement.  The Depositor hereby authorizes and directs the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee to
ratify on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust, as the Supplemental Interest Trust’s own actions, the terms agreed to by the Depositor (or any of its Affiliates) in relation to the Swap Agreement, as reflected in the Swap Agreement, and the Supplemental
Interest Trust Trustee hereby so ratifies the Swap Agreement.  The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall amend the Swap Agreement in accordance with its terms and as requested by a party to the Swap Agreement to cure any ambiguity in or correct or supplement
any provision of the Swap Agreement, provided, however, that the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall have received a prior written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment would not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade or withdraw the then
current ratings of any outstanding Class A Certificates, Mezzanine Certificates or Class B Certificates.  On the Closing Date, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall enter into the Swap Agreement, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust, with the
Swap Counterparty.  The Swap Agreement shall be part of the Trust Fund but not part of any REMIC. The Swap Counterparty is the calculation agent under the Swap Agreement and shall calculate all amounts pursuant to the Swap Agreement and notify the Supplemental
Interest Trust Trustee of all such amounts.

Section 3.30          Replacement Swap
Agreement.

(a)        The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall, at the direction of the NIMS Insurer or, with the consent of the NIMS
Insurer, at the direction of the Depositor, in the event the Swap Agreement is terminated as a result of the designation by either party thereto of an Early Termination Date, enter into a replacement swap agreement with a replacement counterparty designated by the
Depositor or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable.

(b)        Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, any Swap Termination Payment received by the Supplemental Interest
Trust Trustee shall be deposited in the Supplemental Interest Account and shall be used to make any upfront payment required under a replacement swap agreement and any upfront payment (the “Replacement Payment”) received by the Supplemental Interest Trust
Trustee from the counterparty to a replacement swap agreement shall be used to pay any Swap Termination Payment owed to the Swap Counterparty that is being replaced.  The Swap Counterparty that is being replaced shall have first priority as to such Replacement
Payments versus all other creditors of the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, and the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall pay from the Replacement Payments received the lesser of (x) the Replacement Payments so received and (y) any Swap Termination Payment
owed to the Swap Counterparty (to the extent not already paid by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) that is being replaced immediately upon receipt.

(c)        Notwithstanding anything contained herein, in the event that a replacement swap agreement cannot be obtained within 30
days after receipt by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee of the Swap Termination Payment paid by the terminated Swap Counterparty, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall on each Distribution Date, withdraw from the Supplemental Interest Account, an amount
equal to the Net Counterparty Payment, if any, that would have been paid to the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee by the original Swap Counterparty (computed in accordance with the terms of the original Swap Agreement) and distribute such amount in accordance with
Section 4.01(d)(iv)(b) of this Agreement.

(d)        If a downgrade event (described in Part 5(b) of Schedule to the Swap Agreement) occurs, the Supplemental Interest Trust
Trustee shall, promptly after a Responsible Officer of the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee has received actual knowledge or written notice of the reduction or withdrawal of the rating (it being understood that the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee has no duty
to monitor the ratings of the Swap Counterparty), request the Swap Counterparty to take actions required to be taken by the Swap Counterparty by Part 5(b) of Schedule to the Swap Agreement.

(b)        second,

(A)       if the NIM Notes are outstanding, for payment in the amounts and in accordance with priorities (a) through

after distribution of the amount in the Supplemental Interest Account pursuant to Sections 4.01(d)(i)(a) through (bb) on such Distribution Date and (II) the Class C NIM Payment Amount for such Distribution Date; or

 

(B)       if the NIM Notes are not outstanding, for payment in the amounts and in accordance with priorities (a) through
(aa) of Section 4.01(d)(i) to the extent not paid with Net Monthly Excess Cashflow on such Distribution Date.

provided, however, that the amount that shall be distributed pursuant to Section 4.01(d)(iv)(b) priority (i) cannot exceed the aggregate Realized Losses reduced by the aggregate of amounts

Any amounts in the Supplemental Interest Account received from the Swap Counterparty and not distributed on a Distribution Date after payments pursuant to Section 4.01(d)(iv)(b)(B) will remain
in the Supplemental Interest Account and be distributed pursuant to Section 4.01(d)(iv)(b)(B) on the next Distribution Date.  On the Distribution Date on which the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the
Class B Certificates has been reduced to zero, after making all other distributions on such Distribution Date (including to the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates out of the Supplemental Interest Account), the Supplemental
Interest Trust Trustee shall distribute all remaining amounts in the Supplemental Interest Account to itself.

(v)        On each Distribution Date, all amounts representing Prepayment Charges in respect of the Mortgage Loans
received during the related Prepayment Period shall be withdrawn from the Distribution Account and distributed by the Trustee to the Class P Interest, and shall not be available for distribution to any other Class of Certificates.  On each Distribution Date, all
amounts representing any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts paid by or collected by the Servicer during the related Prepayment Period shall be withdrawn from the Distribution Account and distributed by the Trustee to the Class P Interest, and shall not be
available for distribution to any other Class of Certificates.  The payment of the foregoing amounts in respect of such Regular Interests shall not reduce the Uncertificated Principal Balance thereof.

(e)        [Reserved].

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

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

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

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

(i)         the Trustee expects that the final distribution with respect to such Class of Certificates will
be made on such Distribution Date but only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificates at the office of the Trustee therein specified, and

(ii)        no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after the end of the related Accrual
Period.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall,
on such date, be set aside and held in trust by the Trustee and credited to the account of the appropriate non‐tendering Holder or Holders.  If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(h) shall not have been
surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non‐tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final
distribution with respect thereto.  If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final notice to the remaining non‐tendering
Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates but shall continue to hold any remaining funds for the benefit of non‐tendering Certificateholders.  The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such
Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in such trust fund.  If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to WaMu Capital Corp. and Banc of America
Securities LLC, equally, all such amounts, and all rights of non‐tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease.  No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust by the Trustee as a
result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(h).

(i)         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, (i) in no event shall the Certificate Principal Balance of a
Mezzanine Certificate or a Class B Certificate be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both (a) allocated to such Certificate in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 4.06 and (b) distributed to such Certificate in
reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance thereof pursuant to this Section 4.01, and (ii) in no event shall the Uncertificated Principal Balance of a REMIC Regular Interest be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both
(a) allocated to such REMIC Regular Interest in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 4.06 and (b) distributed on such REMIC Regular Interest in reduction of the Uncertificated Principal Balance thereof pursuant to
Section 4.05.

(j)         Any amounts distributed to REMIC CX on any Distribution Date in respect of the Class C Interest under Section
4.01(d)(i) shall, on such Distribution Date, be distributed by REMIC CX to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.  Any amounts remaining in REMIC CX shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R-CX Certificates in respect of the Class R-CX
Interest.  Any amounts distributed to REMIC PX on any Distribution Date in respect of the Class P Interest shall, on such Distribution Date, be distributed by REMIC PX to the Holders of the Class P Certificates.  Any amounts remaining in REMIC PX shall be
distributed to the Holders of the Class R-PX Certificates in respect of the Class R-PX Interest.  Any amounts distributed to REMIC SwapX on any Distribution Date in respect of the Class Swap IO Interest under Section 4.01(d)(i) shall, on such Distribution
Date, be distributed by REMIC CX to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.  Any amounts remaining in REMIC CX shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class R-CX Certificates in respect of the Class R-CX Interest.  For the avoidance of doubt, the
provisions of Sections 4.01(f), 4.01(g) and 4.01(h) shall apply to the Class C Certificates and the Class P Certificates.

(k)        For purposes of distributions pursuant to Section 4.01(d)(iv)(b) and for purposes of determining the Class C NIM Payment
Amount, the Trustee shall use, and shall be entitled to rely on, the information provided to the Trustee by or on behalf of (i) the Holders of all of the Class C Certificates as to whether and when the NIM Notes have been issued and outstanding and (ii) the indenture
trustee under the Indenture with respect to the amount necessary to pay in full the NIM Notes as provided in the Indenture and to pay in full any amounts owed to the NIMS Insurer as provided in the Indenture.  The Trustee shall determine the Class C NIM Payment
Amount for any Distribution Date using the most current information with respect to such amounts available to the Trustee on such Distribution Date.

Section 4.02          Preference Claims.

The Trustee shall promptly notify the NIMS Insurer of any proceeding or the institution of any action, of which a Responsible Officer of the Trustee has actual knowledge, seeking the avoidance
as a preferential transfer under applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership or similar law (a “Preference Claim”) of any distribution made with respect to the Class C Certificates or the Class P Certificates.  Each Holder of the Class C
Certificates or the Class P Certificates, by its purchase of such Certificates, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee hereby agree that the NIMS Insurer may at any time during the continuation of any proceeding relating to a Preference Claim direct all
matters relating to such Preference Claim, including, without limitation, (i) the direction of any appeal of any order relating to such Preference Claim and (ii) the posting of any surety, supersedeas or performance bond pending any such appeal.  In
addition and without limitation of the foregoing, the NIMS Insurer shall be subrogated to the rights of the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and each Holder of the Class C Certificates and the Class P Certificates in the conduct of any such Preference
Claim, including, without limitation, all rights of any party to an adversary proceeding action with respect to any court order issued in connection with any such Preference Claim; provided, however, that the NIMS Insurer will not have any rights with respect to any
Preference Claim set forth in this paragraph unless the Trustee, as indenture trustee or indenture administrator with respect to the Insured NIM Notes or the holder of any Insured NIM Notes has been required to relinquish a distribution made on the Class C
Certificates, the Class P Certificates or the Insured NIM Notes, as applicable, and the NIMS Insurer made a payment in respect of such relinquished amount.

the case of certain information, as agreed between the Trustee and the Servicer, not later than four Business Days after the end of each Due Period), the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee in addition to the information provided on the

and interest payment (with each interest portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee) that would have been due on the related Due Date based on the original principal amortization schedule for such Balloon Loan assuming such Mortgage Loan was not a Balloon Loan,
plus (iv) with respect to each REO Property relating to a Balloon Loan with a delinquent Balloon Payment, which REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Prepayment Period and as to which REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the related
Prepayment Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the assumed monthly principal and interest payment (with each interest portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee) that would have been due on the related Due Date based on the original principal
amortization schedule for the related Balloon Loan assuming such Mortgage Loan was not a Balloon Loan, over the net income from such REO Property transferred to the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.23 for distribution on such Distribution
Date. 

On or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount
equal to the aggregate amount of Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for
future distribution (in which case, it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this Section 4.04, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such Advance)
or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.  Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be
appropriately reflected in the Servicer’s records and replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Funds for the related Distribution Date (determined without
regard to Advances to be made on the Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be distributed to the Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on such Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had
not been so used to make Advances.  The Trustee will provide notice to the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer by telecopy by the close of business on any Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the Servicer to the Trustee on such date is
less than the Advances required to be made by the Servicer for the related Distribution Date. 

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

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

(1)        first to the Holders of REMIC 2 Regular Interests
1SUB, 1GRP, 2SUB, 2GRP in such a manner as to keep the Uncertificated Principal Balance of each REMIC 2 Regular Interest with the designation “GRP” equal to 0.01% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group
(determined as of the current Distribution Date), and the Uncertificated Principal Balance of each REMIC 2 Regular Interest with the designation “SUB” equal to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the
related Loan Group over (y) the current Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificates in the related Loan Group (except that if any such excess is a larger number than in the preceding distribution period, the least amount of principal shall be
distributed to such REMIC 2 Regular Interests such that the REMIC 2 Subordinated Ratio is maintained); and then to the Holder of REMIC 2 Regular Interest XX, in each case until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of the REMIC 2 Regular Interest has been reduced to

Section 4.06          Allocation of Realized
Losses.

(a)        Prior to each Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine as to each
Mortgage Loan and REO Property:  (i) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Final Recovery Determinations made during the related Prepayment Period; (ii) whether and the extent to which such Realized Losses
constituted Bankruptcy Losses; and (iii) the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and allocable to principal.  Prior to each Determination Date, the Servicer shall also determine as to each Mortgage Loan:  (i) the
total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Deficient Valuations made during the related Prepayment Period; and (ii) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with Debt Service Reductions in respect of
Monthly Payments due during the related Due Period.  The information described in the two preceding sentences that is to be supplied by the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee by the
Servicer prior to the Determination Date immediately following the end of (i) in the case of Bankruptcy Losses allocable to interest, the Due Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred, and (ii) in the case of all other Realized Losses, the
Prepayment Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred.

(b)        If on any Distribution Date after giving effect to all Realized Losses incurred
with respect to the Mortgage Loans during or prior to the related Due Period and distributions of principal with respect to the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates on such Distribution Date, the Uncertificated Principal
Balance of the Class C Interest is equal to zero, Realized Losses equal to the Undercollateralized Amount shall be allocated by the Trustee on such Distribution Date as follows:  first, to the Class B Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof
has been reduced to zero, second, to the Class M-10 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, third, to the Class M-9 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, fourth, to the
Class M-8 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, fifth, to the Class M‐7 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, sixth, to the Class M‐6 Certificates, until
the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, seventh, to the Class M‐5 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, eighth, to the Class M-4 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance
thereof has been reduced to zero, ninth, to the Class M-3 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, tenth, to the Class M‐2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, and
eleventh, to the Class M‐1 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero.  All Realized Losses to be allocated to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates on any
Distribution Date shall be so allocated after the actual distributions to be made on such date as provided in Section 4.01.  All references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates shall be to the
Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by any Realized Losses or increase thereof by any Subsequent Recoveries, in each case to be
allocated to such Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates on such Distribution Date.

Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Mezzanine Certificate or Class B Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be made by
reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated.  No allocations of any Realized Losses shall be made to the Class A Certificates or the Class P Certificates.  Any Realized Losses that reduce the distributions in respect
of and/or the Uncertificated Principal Balance of the Class C Interest, shall be allocated by the Trustee to reduce the distributions in respect of and/or the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class C Certificates.

(c)       
(i)         Realized Losses on the Group I Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date to REMIC 1 Regular Interest IX.  If the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest IX
has been reduced to zero, Realized Losses on the Group I Mortgage Loans shall be allocated to the remaining REMIC 1 Group I Regular Interests in ascending numerical order, in each case until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of such REMIC 1 Regular Interest has
been reduced to zero.  Realized Losses on the Group II Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date to REMIC 1 Regular Interest IIX.  If the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 1 Regular Interest IIX has been reduced to
zero, Realized Losses on the Group II Mortgage Loans shall be allocated to the remaining REMIC 1 Group II Regular Interests in ascending numerical order, in each case until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of such REMIC 1 Regular Interest has been reduced to
zero.

           
(ii)        50% of all Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date to the following REMIC 2 Regular Interests in the specified percentages, as follows:

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

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

third, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 2 Regular Interest
AA, B and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest B has been reduced to zero;

fourth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 2 Regular
Interest AA, M10 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M10 has been reduced to zero;

AA, M8 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M8 has been reduced to zero;

seventh, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 2 Regular
Interest AA, M7 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M7 has been reduced to zero;

eighth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 2 Regular
Interest AA, M6 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M6 has been reduced to zero;

ninth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 2 Regular Interest
AA, M5 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M5 has been reduced to zero;

tenth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 2 Regular Interest
AA, M4 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M4 has been reduced to zero;

Interest AA, M3 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M3 has been reduced to zero;

twelfth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 2 Regular
Interest AA, M2 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M2 has been reduced to zero; and

thirteenth, to the Uncertificated Principal Balances of REMIC 2 Regular
Interest AA, M1 and ZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Principal Balance of REMIC 2 Regular Interest M1 has been reduced to zero.

(iii)       50% of all Realized Losses on the
Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date to REMIC 2 Regular Interest 1GRP, 1SUB, 2GRP, REMIC 2 Regular Interest 2SUB, and REMIC 2 Regular Interest XX, as follows:

after all distributions have been made on such Distribution Date, Realized
Losses shall be applied in such a manner as to keep the Uncertificated Principal Balance of each REMIC 2 Regular Interest ending with the designation “GRP” equal to 0.01% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan
Group (determined as of the current Distribution Date), and the Uncertificated Principal Balance of each REMIC 2 Regular Interest ending with the designation “SUB” equal to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage
Loans in the related Loan Group as of the current Distribution Date over (y) the Certificate Principal Balance of the Senior Certificates related to such Loan Group immediately prior to such Distribution Date (except that if such excess is larger than it was for the
preceding Distribution Date, the least amount of Realized Loss shall be allocated such that the REMIC 2 Subordinated Ratio is maintained); and then to REMIC 2 Regular Interest XX.

(d)        If on any Distribution Date Allocated Realized Loss Amounts are to be reinstated
due to Subsequent Recoveries, the Allocated Realized Loss Amounts shall be reinstated by the Trustee on such Distribution Date to increase the Certificate Principal Balances of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates in the following order of
priority, in each case until the related Allocated Realized Loss Amount has been reduced to zero:  first, to the Class M‐1 Certificates, second to the Class M‐2 Certificates, third to the Class M‐3 Certificates,
fourth to the Class M‐4 Certificates, fifth to the Class M‐5 Certificates, sixth to the Class M‐6 Certificates, seventh to the Class M‐7 Certificates, eighth to the Class M-8 Certificates, ninth to the
Class M-9 Certificates, tenth to the Class M-10 Certificates and eleventh to the Class B Certificates.  All Subsequent Recoveries to be allocated to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Mezzanine Certificates or the Class B Certificates on any
Distribution Date shall be so allocated after the actual distributions to be made on such date as provided in Section 4.01.  All references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates shall be to the
Certificate Principal Balance of the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by any Realized Losses or increase thereof by any Subsequent Recoveries, in each case to be
allocated to the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates on such Distribution Date.

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

(e)       
(i)         If on any Distribution Date Subsequent Recoveries occurred in the related Prepayment Period relating to the Group I Mortgage Loans, the amount of such Subsequent Recoveries shall be allocated first to the REMIC 1
Group I Regular Interests with the designations “A” and “B” in the reverse order in which Realized Losses were allocated under Section 4.06(c)(i), and then to REMIC 1 Regular Interest IX.  If on any Distribution Date Subsequent Recoveries
occurred in the related Prepayment Period relating to the Group II Mortgage Loans, the amount of such Subsequent Recoveries shall be allocated first to the REMIC 1 Group II Regular Interests with the designations “A” and “B” in the reverse
order in which Realized Losses were allocated under Section 4.06(c)(i), and then to REMIC 1 Regular Interest IIX.

(ii)        If on any Distribution Date
Subsequent Recoveries occurred in the related Prepayment Period, the amount of such Subsequent Recoveries shall be allocated among the REMIC 2 Regular Interests as follows:

(i)         50% of the Subsequent
Recoveries from all Loan Groups shall be allocated among the REMIC 3 Regular Interests in the same proportions and amounts, but in the reverse order, as Realized Losses were allocated under Section 4.06(c)(ii). 

(ii)        50% of the Subsequent
Recoveries from all Loan Groups shall be allocated in the same proportions, but in reverse order, as the Realized Losses were allocated under Section 4.06(c)(iii).

Section 4.07          Compliance with Withholding Requirements.

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

On the Closing Date, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, a separate non-interest bearing account for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates, the Class B
Certificates and the Class C Certificates (the “Supplemental Interest Account”), to be held in the Supplemental Interest Trust into which the Depositor shall initially deposit $1,000.  The Supplemental Interest 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 or of the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee held pursuant to this Agreement. 

(b)        The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall deposit, to the extent of available funds, into the Supplemental Interest
Account any amounts required to be paid to the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 and shall distribute from the Supplemental Interest Account any such amounts to the Swap Counterparty as required by Section 4.01(d)(iv).  The

(c)        Funds in the Supplemental Interest Trust shall be invested in Eligible Investments.  The Class C Certificates shall
evidence ownership of the Supplemental Interest Trust for federal income tax purposes and the Holders of the majority of the Percentage Interest thereof shall direct the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, in writing, as to investment of amounts on deposit
therein.  In the absence of written instructions from the Holders of the Class C Certificates as to investment of funds on deposit in the Supplemental Interest Account, such funds shall be invested in Deutsche Bank Cash Management Fund 541 for so long as such
investment complies with clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Investments.  All income and gain earned upon such investment shall be deposited into the Supplemental Interest Account.

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

Section 4.10         
Final Maturity Reserve Trust.

(a)        On the Closing Date, there is hereby established a separate common law trust (the “Final Maturity Reserve
Trust”) into which the Depositor shall deposit $1,000.  The Final Maturity Reserve Trust shall be maintained by the Final Maturity Reserve Trust Trustee, who, initially, shall be the Trustee.  On the Closing Date, the Final Maturity Reserve Trust
Trustee shall establish and maintain in its name, a separate non-interest bearing account for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates, the Class B Certificates and the Class C Certificates (the “Final Maturity Reserve

(c)        Funds in the Final Maturity Reserve Trust shall be held by the Trustee in the Final Maturity Reserve Account
uninvested.  The Class C Certificates shall evidence ownership of the Final Maturity Reserve Trust for federal income tax purposes.

(d)        For federal income tax purposes, any Certificateholder that receives a principal payment from the Final Maturity Reserve
Trust shall be treated as selling a portion of its Certificate to the Holder of the Class C Certificates and as having received the amount of the principal payment from the Holder of the Class C Certificates as the proceeds of the sale.  The portion of the
Certificate that is treated as having been sold shall equal the amount of the corresponding reduction in the Certificate Principal Balance of such Certificate.  Principal payments received from the Final Maturity Reserve Trust shall not be treated as
distributions from any REMIC created hereby.  All principal distributions from the Final Maturity Reserve Trust shall be accounted for hereunder in accordance with this Section 4.10(d).

Section 4.11

Section 4.12         
Interest Coverage Account.

(a)        No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain a segregated non-interest bearing trust account

“Interest Coverage Account”).  The Trustee shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Interest Coverage Account and retain therein the Interest Coverage Amount remitted on the Closing Date to the Trustee by the Depositor.  Funds deposited in
the Interest Coverage Account shall be held in trust by the Trustee for the Certificateholders for the uses and purposes set forth herein.

(b)        For federal income tax purposes, the Servicer shall be the owner of the Interest Coverage Account and shall report all
items of income, deduction, gain or loss arising therefrom.  At no time will the Interest Coverage Account be an asset of any REMIC created hereunder.  All income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in the Interest Coverage Account shall be

the Class B Certificates immediately prior to such Distribution Date net of any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls or Net Prepayment Interest Shortfalls over (y) the sum of the Group I Interest Remittance Amount and the Group II Interest Remittance Amount for such
Distribution Date.  On the second Distribution Date, the Trustee shall withdraw any remaining amounts from the Interest Coverage Account and distribute them to the Servicer.

The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibits A‐1 through A‐6.  The Certificates of each Class will be issuable in registered form
only, in denominations of authorized Percentage Interests as described in the definition thereof.  Each Certificate will share ratably in all rights of the related Class.

Upon original issue, the Certificates shall be executed by the Trustee and authenticated and delivered by the Trustee, to or upon the order of the Depositor.  The Certificates shall be
executed and attested by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized signatory.  Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at any time the proper officers of the Trustee shall bind the Trustee,
notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to hold such offices prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such Certificates.  No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit
under this Agreement or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided herein executed by the Trustee by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.  All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

(b)        The Book Entry Certificates shall initially be issued as one or more Certificates held by the Book-Entry Custodian or,
if appointed to hold such Certificates as provided below, the Depository and registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and, except as provided below, registration of the Book-Entry Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another
Depository that agrees to hold the Book-Entry Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership Interests therein.  The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests in and to the Book-Entry Certificates through the
book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as provided below, shall not be entitled to definitive, fully registered Certificates (“Definitive Certificates”) in respect of such Ownership Interests.  All transfers by Certificate Owners of
their respective Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner.  Each Depository Participant shall only transfer
the Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository’s normal procedures.  The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the Book-Entry
Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance herewith and in accordance with the agreement that it has with the Depository authorizing it to act as such.  The Book-Entry Custodian may, and if it is no longer qualified to act as such, the Book-Entry
Custodian shall, appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Depositor, the Servicer and if the Trustee is not the Book-Entry Custodian, the Trustee and any other transfer agent (including the Depository or any successor Depository) to act as Book-Entry
Custodian under such conditions as the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian and the Depository or any successor Depository may prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities by reason of any
such appointment of other than the Depository.  If the Trustee resigns or is removed in accordance with the terms hereof, successor Trustee or, if it so elects, the Depository shall immediately succeed to its predecessor’s duties as Book-Entry
Custodian.  The Depositor shall have the right to inspect, and to obtain copies of, any Certificates held as Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian.

The Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor may for all purposes (including the making of payments due on the Book-Entry Certificates) deal with the
Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates for the purposes of the exercise by Certificateholders of the rights of Certificateholders hereunder.  The rights of Certificate Owners with respect
to the Book-Entry Certificates shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms representing such Certificate Owners.  The Depositor is hereby authorized to execute
and deliver on behalf of the Trust the Letter of Representations to be submitted on behalf of the Trust to the Depository and to perform the obligations of the Issuer (as defined in the Letter of Representations) thereunder.  The Trustee is hereby authorized to
execute and deliver as agent of the Trust the Letter of Representations to be submitted on behalf of the Trust to the Depository and to perform the obligations of the Agent (as defined in the Letter of Representations) thereunder.  Multiple requests and
directions from, and votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Book-Entry Certificates with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners.  The Trustee may establish a reasonable
record date in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Certificateholders and shall give notice to the Depository of such record date.

If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depository, and (B) the Depositor is
unable to locate a qualified successor, (ii) the Depositor notifies the Trustee and the Depository of its intent to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository and, upon receipt of notice of such intent from the Depository, the Depository Participants
with a position in the Book Entry Certificates agree to initiate such termination, or (iii) after the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default, Certificate Owners representing in the aggregate not less than 51% of the Ownership Interests of the Book-Entry
Certificates advise the Trustee through the Depository, in writing, that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the
Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same.  Upon surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian or the Depository, as
applicable, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates.  Such Definitive Certificates will be issued in minimum denominations of $25,000, except that any
beneficial ownership that was represented by a Book-Entry Certificate in an amount less than $25,000 immediately prior to the issuance of a Definitive Certificate shall be issued in a minimum denomination equal to the amount represented by such Book-Entry
Certificate.  None of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall be liable for any delay in the delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.  Upon the
issuance of Definitive Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates, and the
Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.

Section 5.02          Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.

(a)        The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be appointed by the Trustee in accordance with
the provisions of Section 8.12 a Certificate Register for the Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as
herein provided.

(b)        No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class B Certificate, Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or
Residual Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the 1933 Act and
laws.  In the event of any such transfer of any Class B Certificate to be made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial sale of the Class B Certificates to the initial purchasers or the initial issuance thereof),
then the Trustee shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certificate from the Class B Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J‐1A hereto
and a certificate from such Class B Certificateholder’s prospective transferee substantially in the form attached as Exhibit J‐1B hereto (which in the case of the Book-Entry Certificates, the Class B Certificateholder’s prospective transferee will
be deemed to have represented such certification).  In the event of any such transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate
or Residual Certificates by the Depositor to the Seller, (ii) the transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificates by the Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller or to a trust, the depositor of which is an Affiliate of the Seller, (iii)
the transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificates by an Affiliate of the Seller to one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or to a trust, the depositor of which is one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or (iv) a
subsequent transfer of any Class C Certificates, Class P Certificates or Residual Certificates to the Seller or its designee by such entity or trust described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above to which the Certificates were previously transferred in reliance on clauses
(ii) or (iii) above) (i) unless such transfer is made in reliance upon Rule 144A (as evidenced by the investment letter delivered to the Trustee, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J) under the 1933 Act, the Trustee and the Depositor shall
require a written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in‐house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption
and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Trust Fund or the Depositor or (ii) the Trustee shall require the transferor to
execute a transferor certificate (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit L) and the transferee to execute an investment letter (in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory
to the Depositor and the Trustee certifying to the Depositor and the Trustee the facts surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trustee or the Depositor.  The Holder of a Class B Certificate, Class C Certificate, Class P
Certificate or Residual Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Depositor and the Trust Fund against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made
in accordance with such federal and state laws.

(c)        For so long as the Supplemental Interest Trust or the Final Maturity Reserve Trust is in existence, no transfer of a
Class A Certificate or Mezzanine 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 I, to the effect that either (i) it is neither a Plan nor
a Person acting on behalf of any such Plan or using the assets of any such Plan to effect such transfer or (ii) it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2002-41, as amended from time to time (the “Exemption”)
and  the acquisition and holding of such Certificate and the separate right to receive payments from the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee and the Final Maturity Reserve Trust Trustee are eligible for the exemptive relief available under Prohibited Transaction
Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 84-14 (for transactions by independent “qualified professional asset managers”), 91-38 (for transactions by bank collective investment funds), 90-1 (for transactions by insurance company pooled separate accounts),
95-60 (for transactions by insurance company general accounts) or 96-23 (for transactions effected by “in-house asset managers”).  If the Class A Certificate, or the Mezzanine Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, the transferee will be deemed to
have made a representation as provided in clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph, as applicable.

Subsequent to the termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust and the Final Maturity Reserve Trust, no transfer of a Mezzanine 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 I, to the effect that either (i) it is neither a Plan nor a Person acting on behalf of any such Plan or using the assets of any such Plan to
effect such transfer or (ii) it has acquired and is holding such Certificate in reliance on the Exemption, and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Exemption, including that the certificate must be rated, at the time of
purchase, not lower than “BBB-”(or its equivalent) by S&P, Fitch or Moody's, and the Certificate is so rated or (iii) (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the source of funds used to acquire or hold the certificate or interest therein is an
“insurance company general account,” as such term is defined in PTCE 95-60, and (3) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.   If the Mezzanine Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, the transferee will be deemed
to have made a representation as provided in clause (i), (ii) or (iii) of this paragraph, as applicable.

For so long as the Supplemental Interest Trust or the Final Maturity Reserve Trust is in existence, no transfer of a Class B 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 J-1B, to the effect that either (i) it is neither a Plan nor a Person acting on behalf of any such Plan or using the assets of any such Plan to effect such
transfer or (ii) the Plan is an accredited investor within the meaning of the Exemption and such acquisition or holding is eligible for the exemptive relief available under PTCE 95-60 (for transactions by insurance company general accounts).  If the Class B
Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, the transferee will be deemed to have made a representation as provided in clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph, as applicable.

Subsequent to the termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust and the Final Maturity Reserve Trust, no transfer of a Class B 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 J-1B, to the effect that either (i) it is neither a Plan nor a Person acting on behalf of any such Plan or using the assets of any such Plan to effect such
transfer or it is not a Plan or a trustee or other Person acting on behalf of a Plan or using “plan assets” of a Plan to effect such transfer or (ii) it is an insurance company, the source of funds used to acquire or hold the certificates is an
“insurance company general account” as that term is defined in PTCE 95-60, and the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.  If the Class B Certificate is a Book-Entry Certificate, the transferee will be deemed to have made
a representation as provided in clause (i) or (ii) of this paragraph, as applicable.

No transfer of a Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate or any interest therein shall be made to any Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any
Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring such Certificates with “Plan Assets” of a Plan within the meaning of the Department of Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3‐101
(“Plan Assets”) unless, in the case of the Class C Certificates or the Class P Certificates, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer are provided with an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the satisfaction of the Depositor, the Trustee and the
Servicer that the purchase of such Certificates is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware
Trustee or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Trustee. the Delaware Trustee or the Trust Fund.  Neither an Opinion of Counsel nor any certification will be required in connection with the (i) initial transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificates by the
Depositor to the Seller, (ii) the transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificates by the Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller or to a trust, the depositor of which is an Affiliate of the Seller, (iii) the transfer of any Class C
Certificates, Class P Certificates or Residual Certificates by an Affiliate of the Seller to one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or to a trust the depositor of which is one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or (iv) a subsequent transfer of any
Class C Certificates, Class P Certificates or Residual Certificates to the Seller or its designee by such entity or trust described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above to which the Certificates were previously transferred in reliance on clauses (ii) or (iii) above (in
which case, the Depositor, the Seller, any such Affiliate and such entities sponsored by such Affiliate shall have deemed to have represented that the applicable transferee is not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets) and the Trustee shall be entitled to
conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the Trustee, shall be a written representation) from the Depositor of the status of each transferee, the Seller or such an Affiliate.  Each transferee of a Class C Certificate, Class P
Certificate or Residual Certificate shall sign a letter substantially in the form of Exhibit I to demonstrate its compliance with this Section 5.02(c) (other than in connection with the (i) initial transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or
Residual Certificates by the Depositor to the Seller, (ii) the transfer of any Class C Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificates by the Seller to an Affiliate of the Seller or to a trust, the depositor of which is an Affiliate of the Seller, (iii) the
transfer of any Class C Certificates, Class P Certificates or Residual Certificates by an Affiliate of the Seller to one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or to a trust the depositor of which is one or more entities sponsored by such Affiliate or (iv) a
subsequent transfer of any Class C Certificates, Class P Certificates or Residual Certificates to the Seller or its designee by such entity or trust described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above to which the Certificates were previously transferred in reliance on clauses
(ii) or (iii) above). 

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

(d)        Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance
or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably appointed the Depositor or its designee as its attorney‐in‐fact to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause
(v) below and to execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following
provisions:

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

The foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to transfers occurring on or after the date on which there shall have been delivered to the Trustee, in form and substance
satisfactory to the Trustee, (i) written notification from each Rating Agency that the removal of the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section will not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade its rating of any of the Other NIM Notes, the Insured NIM
Notes (without giving effect to any insurance policy issued by the NIMS Insurer) or the Certificates and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC.

(e)        Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or
agency of the Trustee designated from time to time for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated Transferee or Transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class of a
like aggregate Percentage Interest.

(f)         At the option of the Holder thereof, any Certificate may be exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class
with authorized denominations and a like aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of such Certificate to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12.  Whenever any Certificates are so
surrendered for exchange the Trustee shall execute, authenticate and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.  Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by
the Trustee) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing.

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

All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be canceled by the Trustee and disposed of pursuant to its standard procedures.

Section 5.03          Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

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

Section 5.04          Persons Deemed Owners.

The Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and any agent of the Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, or the NIMS Insurer may treat
the Person, including a Depository, in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Servicer, the Depositor,
the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the NIMS Insurer nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

ARTICLE VI

THE SERVICER AND THE DEPOSITOR

Section 6.01          Liability of the Servicer and the Depositor.

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

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

Subject to the following paragraph, the Depositor will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation. 
Subject to the following paragraph, the Servicer will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the jurisdiction of its incorporation and its qualification as an approved conventional seller/servicer for Fannie Mae or
Freddie Mac in good standing.  The Depositor and the Servicer each will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, the Certificates or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement.

The Depositor or the Servicer may be merged or consolidated with or into any Person, or transfer all or substantially all of its assets to any Person, in which case any Person resulting from
any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor or the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor or the Servicer, shall be the successor of the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, hereunder, without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person to the Servicer shall be qualified to service mortgage loans on
behalf of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac; and provided further that the Rating Agencies’ ratings of the Other NIM Notes, the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class B Certificates and the shadow rating of the Insured NIM Notes (without giving
effect to any insurance policy issued by the NIMS Insurer) in effect immediately prior to such merger or consolidation will not be qualified, reduced or withdrawn as a result thereof (as evidenced by a letter to such effect from the Rating Agencies to the
Trustee).

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

None of the Depositor, the Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund or the
Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Servicer or any such person
against any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the Servicer or the Depositor, as applicable, pursuant hereto, or against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.  The Depositor, the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the Servicer may rely in good
faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Depositor, the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor or the Servicer
shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.  Neither the Depositor nor the Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal
action unless such action is related to its respective duties under this Agreement and, in its opinion, does not involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that each of the Depositor and the Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action
which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder.  In such event, unless the Depositor or the Servicer acts without the consent of
Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights (which consent shall not be necessary in the case of litigation or other legal action by either to enforce their respective rights or defend themselves hereunder), the legal expenses and costs of
such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder)
shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust, and the Depositor and the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as and to the extent provided in Section 3.11, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the
rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account.

The Servicer (except the Trustee to the extent it has succeeded the Servicer as required hereunder) indemnifies and holds the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Depositor and the Trust Fund
harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Depositor or the Trust Fund may sustain in any way
related to the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement.  The Servicer shall immediately notify the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor if a claim is
made that may result in such claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees or related costs, judgments, or any other costs, fees and expenses, and the Servicer shall assume (with the consent of the Trustee) the defense of any such claim and pay all
expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the Depositor and/or the Trust Fund in respect of such
claim.  The provisions of this paragraph shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.

Section 6.04          Limitation on Resignation of Servicer.

The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (i) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law
or (ii) with the written consent of the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer and written confirmation from each Rating Agency (which confirmation shall be furnished to the Depositor and the Trustee) that such resignation will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce the
then current rating of any of the Other NIM Notes, the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates or the Class B Certificates or the shadow rating of the Insured NIM Notes (without giving effect to any insurance policy issued by the NIMS Insurer).  Any
such determination pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Servicer and delivered to the Trustee.  No resignation
of the Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer reasonably acceptable to the NIMS Insurer shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of
such successor) and obligations under this Agreement.

Except as expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, nor delegate to or subcontract with, nor
authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Servicer hereunder.  The foregoing prohibition on assignment shall not prohibit the Servicer from designating a Sub‐Servicer as payee of any
indemnification amount payable to the Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that as provided in Section 3.06 hereof, no Sub‐Servicer shall be a third‐party beneficiary hereunder and the parties hereto shall not be required to recognize any
Sub‐Servicer as an indemnitee under this Agreement.  If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Servicer are transferred to a successor servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant
hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor servicer.

Section 6.05          Rights of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee in Respect of the Servicer.

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

ARTICLE VII

DEFAULT

Section 7.01          Servicer Events of Default.

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

(i)         any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Trustee for distribution to the Certificateholders
any payment (other than an Advance required to be made from its own funds on any Servicer Remittance Date pursuant to Section 4.04) required to be made under the terms of the Certificates and this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business
Day after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Depositor, the Trustee (in which case notice shall be provided by telecopy), or to the Servicer, the Depositor and the
Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; or

(ii)        any failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any of the
covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer contained in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of 45 days (30 days in the case of any failure to maintain a Sub‐Servicing Agreement with an eligible Sub‐Servicer to the extent
required in accordance with Section 3.02(c)) after the earlier of (i) the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee, or to the Servicer, the
Depositor and the Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights and (ii) actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Representative of the Servicer; or

(iii)       a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an
involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding, or
for the winding‐up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and if such proceeding is being contested by the Servicer in good faith, such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60
days or results in the entry of an order for relief or any such adjudication or appointment; or

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

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

(vi)       [reserved]; or

(vii)      any failure of the Servicer to make, or cause an Advancing Person to make, any Advance on any Servicer Remittance
Date required to be made from its own funds pursuant to Section 4.04 which continues unremedied until 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day immediately following the Servicer Remittance Date; or

(viii)      the Servicer ceases to be an approved seller or servicer of Fannie Mae.

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

The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed by the Servicer (or by the Trust if the 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 Trustee to correct
any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Trustee to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.

Section 7.02          Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

(a)        On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination, the Trustee shall be the successor in all respects
to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter, which shall be assumed by the
Trustee (except for any representations or warranties of the Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Section 2.03(c) and its obligation to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant to Section 3.12) by the
terms and provisions hereof including, without limitation, the Servicer’s obligations to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.04; provided, however, that if the Trustee is prohibited by law or regulation from obligating itself to make advances regarding
delinquent Mortgage Loans, then the Trustee shall not be obligated to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.04; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer’s failure to provide information required
by Section 7.01 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee as successor to the Servicer hereunder; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the servicing
transfer is fully effected.  As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Servicer would have been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder (other than amounts which
were due or would become due to the Servicer prior to its termination or resignation).  Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Trustee be liable for any Servicing Fee or for any differential in the amount of the Servicing Fee paid
hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to act as successor Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein.  After the Servicer receives a notice of termination, notwithstanding the above and
subject to the next paragraph, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or if it is prohibited by law from making advances regarding delinquent Mortgage Loans, or if the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights so request in writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an established mortgage loan servicing institution acceptable to each Rating Agency, having a net worth of
not less than $15,000,000 and reasonably acceptable to the NIMS Insurer, as the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement.

No appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this Agreement shall be effective until the assumption by the successor of all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and
liabilities hereunder.  In connection with such appointment and assumption described herein, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however,
that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer as such hereunder.  The Depositor, the Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. 
Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this Agreement, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided.

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

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

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

Section 7.03          Notification to Certificateholders.

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

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

Section 7.04          Waiver of Servicer Events of Default.

The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights evidenced by all Classes of Certificates affected by any default or Servicer Event of Default hereunder may, with the consent of the
NIMS Insurer, waive such default or Servicer Event of Default; provided, however, that a default or Servicer Event of Default under clause (i) or (vii) of Section 7.01 may be waived only by all of the Holders of the Regular Certificates and
the NIMS Insurer (as evidenced by the written consent of the NIMS Insurer).  Upon any such waiver of a default or Servicer Event of Default, such default or Servicer Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every
purpose hereunder.  No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Servicer Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

ARTICLE VIII

THE TRUSTEE

Section
8.01          Duties of Trustees.

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

The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee which are specifically required to be
furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they conform to the requirements of this Agreement.  If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the
Trustee shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee’s satisfaction, the Trustee will provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders.

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

(i)         Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default, and after the curing of all such Servicer
Events of Default which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be liable except for the performance of such duties and
obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, such
trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to such trustee that conform to the requirements of this Agreement;

(ii)        Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be personally liable for an error of judgment made
in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of such trustee unless it shall be proved that such trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii)       Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be personally liable with respect to any action taken,
suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights relating to the time, method and place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy
available to such trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon such trustee, under this Agreement.

Section
8.02          Certain Matters Affecting the Trustees.

(a)        Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:

(i)         Each of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may request and rely conclusively upon and shall be
fully protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officer’s Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document
reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties and the manner of obtaining consents and evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as such trustee
may prescribe;

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

(iii)       Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be under any obligation to exercise any of the trusts or
powers vested in it by this Agreement or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the NIMS Insurer or the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless the
NIMS Insurer or such Certificateholders shall have offered to such trustee security or indemnity satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of
the obligation, upon the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default (which has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would
exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs;

(iv)       Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or
omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(v)        Prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default hereunder and after the curing of all Servicer
Events of Default which may have occurred, neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order,
approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee or the
Delaware Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of such trustee not reasonably assured to such trustee by the NIMS Insurer or such Certificateholders, such trustee may require
reasonable indemnity against such expense, or liability from the NIMS Insurer or such Certificateholders as a condition to taking any such action;

(vi)       Each of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform
any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys, and neither shall be responsible for any willful misconduct or negligence of such agents, custodians, nominees or attorneys (as long as such agents, custodians, nominees
or attorneys are appointed with due and proper care);

(vii)      The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any loss resulting from the investment of funds held in the
Collection Account or the Supplemental Interest Account at the direction of the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12 or the Holders of the majority of the Percentage Interest in the Class C Certificates, pursuant to Section 4.09, as applicable;

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

(ix)      
The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall only be obligated to make payments
to the Trust to the extent that the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee receives the related funds from the Swap Provider, and shall only be obligated to make payments to the Swap Provider under the Swap Agreement to the extent that the Supplemental Interest Trust
Trustee receives the related funds from the Trust; and

(x)        Except as expressly provided in this Agreement, in no event shall the Trustee be under any duty or
obligation to monitor, determine, investigate or compel compliance by the Trust with the requirements of the Statutory Trust Statute.

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

(c)        Each of the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee and the Final Maturity Reserve Trust Trustee shall be entitled to the
same rights, protections, immunities and indemnities afforded to the Trustee hereunder.

Section
8.03          Trustees Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.

The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, the execution and authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates,
the acknowledgments of the Trustee contained in Article II and the representations and warranties of the Trustee in Section 8.13) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor, and neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall assume any
responsibility for their correctness.  Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee makes any representations or warranties as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement (other than as specifically set forth in Section 8.13) or of the Certificates
(other than execution and authentication of the Trustee on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document.  Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of any of the Certificates or
of the proceeds of the Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Servicer, other than any funds held by or on behalf
of the Trustee in accordance with Section 3.10.

Section
8.04          Trustees May Own Certificates.

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

Section
8.05          Trustees’ Fees and Expenses.

(a)        On the Closing Date, the Depositor shall pay to the Trustee as specified in a separate agreement between the Depositor
and the Trustee.  The Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date and pay to itself the Trustee Fee for such Distribution Date and one day’s interest earnings (net of losses) on amounts on deposit in the Distribution
Account.  The right to receive the Trustee Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Trustee’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.  Subject to separate written agreements
with the Delaware Trustee, the Servicer covenants and agrees to, and the Servicer shall, pay the Delaware Trustee from time to time, and the Delaware Trustee shall be entitled to payment for all services rendered by it in the exercise and performance of any of the
powers and duties hereunder of the Delaware Trustee.

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

As a limitation on the foregoing with respect to certain expenses of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee shall receive from the Trust Fund amounts with
respect to indemnification for reasonable counsel fees and expenses (collectively, “Legal Fees”) in connection with any third‐party litigation or other claims alleging violations of laws or regulations relating to consumer lending and/or servicing
of the Trust Fund (collectively, “Third Party Claims”) in an amount not greater than $50,000 per month (with amounts in excess of $50,000 for any month carried‐forward to subsequent months, in each case the Trustee shall have first priority to
indemnification over the Delaware Trustee from such monthly and annual amounts).  Neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee shall have any obligation to incur additional expenses for which reimbursement is limited pursuant to this paragraph in excess of the
aggregate limit set forth above unless it has received reasonable security or indemnity for such additional expenses.  The Certificateholders shall hold each of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee harmless for any consequences to such Certificateholders
resulting from any failure of such trustee to incur any such additional expenses in excess of the aforementioned aggregate limit.

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

Section
8.06          Eligibility Requirements for Trustees.

The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or an association (other than the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or any Affiliate of the foregoing) organized and doing business
under the laws of any state or the United States of America, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority.  If
such corporation or association publishes reports of conditions at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section the combined capital and surplus of such
corporation or association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of conditions so published.  The Delaware Trustee hereunder shall at all times have its principal place of business in the State of Delaware
and shall satisfy the applicable requirements under the laws of the State of Delaware authorizing it to act as the Delaware Trustee of the Trust.  In case at any time the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section, such trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07.

Section
8.07          Resignation or Removal of Trustees.

Each of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Swap Counterparty and the Certificateholders.  Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning trustee and
to the successor trustee acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and to the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights.  A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Servicer by the Depositor.  If no
successor trustee shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning trustee may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee.

If at any time the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by
the Depositor or the NIMS Insurer, or if at any time the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of such trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall
take charge or control of such trustee or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor or the NIMS Insurer, may remove such trustee and the Depositor may appoint a successor trustee, acceptable to the
NIMS Insurer and to the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights, by written instrument, in triplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the trustee so removed, the trustee continuing and to the successor trustee.  A copy of
such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Servicer by the Depositor.

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

Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee and appointment of a successor trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until
acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee as provided in Section 8.08. 

Section
8.08          Successor Trustees.

Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such
appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of
its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as Trustee or Delaware Trustee herein.  The predecessor trustee shall deliver to the successor trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements, as well as all moneys, held by
it hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at the time held by a Custodian, which Custodian shall become the agent of any successor trustee (but not a successor of the Delaware Trustee) hereunder), and the Depositor and the predecessor trustee shall execute and
deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of
Section 8.06 and the appointment of such successor trustee shall not result in a downgrading of the ratings of any of the Other NIM Notes or of any Class of Certificates or of the shadow ratings of the Insured NIM Notes (without giving effect to any insurance
policy issued by the NIMS Insurer) by any Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency.

Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor trustee as provided in this Section, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at
their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register and the Swap Counterparty.  If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee, the successor trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the
expense of the Depositor.

It is acknowledged and agreed that the Person serving as Trustee hereunder shall also serve as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee and as Final Maturity Reserve Trust Trustee.  If the
Trustee resigns or is removed as Trustee hereunder, the Trustee shall also cease to be the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee and as Final Maturity Reserve Trust Trustee hereunder.  Any person appointed as successor trustee hereunder shall also be required to
serve as successor supplemental interest trust trustee and final maturity reserve trust trustee.

Section
8.09          Merger or Consolidation of Trustees.

Any corporation or association into which the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated or any corporation or association resulting from
any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall be a party, or any corporation or association succeeding to the business of trustee, shall be the successor of such trustee hereunder, provided such corporation or association
shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Section
8.10          Appointment of Co‐Trustee or Separate Trustee.

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of REMIC 1, or property securing the same
may at the time be located, the Servicer and the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by such trustee and the NIMS Insurer, to act as
co‐trustee or co‐trustees, jointly with such trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of REMIC 1, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to REMIC 1, or any part thereof and, subject to
the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Servicer and the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, may consider necessary or desirable.  If the Servicer shall not have joined in such
appointment or the NIMS Insurer shall not have approved such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case a Servicer Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable,
alone shall have the power to make such appointment.  No co‐trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to Holders of Certificates of the
appointment of co‐trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08 hereof.  If such appointment is at the request of the Servicer, then any expense of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, shall be deemed a
Servicing Advance for all purpose of this Agreement, otherwise it will be an expense of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, and will be payable out of such trustee’s funds.

In the case of any appointment of a co‐trustee or separate trustee pursuant to this Section 8.10 all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee or
the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, and such separate trustee or co‐trustee jointly, except to the extent that under any law of any
jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed by the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, (whether as trustee hereunder or as successor to the Servicer hereunder), such trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act
or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to REMIC 1, or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed by such separate trustee or co‐trustee at the direction of the
Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable.

Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, shall be deemed to have been given to each of the then separate trustees and
co‐trustees, as effectively as if given to each of them.  Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co‐trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII.  Each separate trustee and co‐trustee,
upon its acceptance of the trust conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, 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 or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable.  Every such instrument shall be filed
with the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable.

Any separate trustee or co‐trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, its agent or attorney‐in‐fact, with full power and
authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name.  If any separate trustee or co‐trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its
estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee, as applicable, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Section
8.11          Appointment of Custodians.

The Trustee may, with the consent of the Depositor and the Servicer, appoint one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee, by entering into a
Custodial Agreement.  The Trustee shall initially serve as the Custodian and this Agreement shall serve as the Custodial Agreement.  The appointment of any Custodian may at any time be terminated and a substitute Custodian appointed therefor upon the
reasonable request of the Servicer to the Trustee and the consent of the NIMS Insurer, the consent to which shall not be unreasonably withheld.  The Trustee shall pay any and all fees and expenses of any Custodian (other than the Washington Mutual Custodian) in
accordance with each Custodial Agreement.  Subject to Article VIII hereof, the Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of each Custodial Agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit of the
Certificateholders having an interest in any Mortgage File held by such Custodian.  Each Custodian shall be a depository institution or trust company subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have combined capital and surplus of at least
$10,000,000 and shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any Mortgage File.  Each Custodial Agreement may be amended only as provided in Section 11.01.  In no event shall the appointment of any Custodian pursuant to a
Custodial Agreement diminish the obligations of the Trustee hereunder.  The Trustee shall at all times remain responsible under the terms of this Agreement notwithstanding the fact that certain duties have been assigned to the Custodian (other than the
Washington Mutual Custodian), but only to the extent the Trustee is responsible for its own acts hereunder.  Any documents delivered by the Depositor or the Servicer to a Custodian other than the Trustee, if any, shall be deemed to have been delivered to the
Trustee for all purposes hereunder; and any documents held by such a Custodian, if any, shall be deemed to be held by the Trustee for all purposes hereunder.  In order to comply with its duties under the U.S. Patriot Act, the Custodian shall obtain and verify
certain information and documentation from the other parties to this Agreement, including, but not limited to, such parties’ name, address, and other identifying information.

Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC 1 and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC 1; provided, however, that in no event shall the trust
created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof.  The purchase by the
Terminator of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC 1 shall be at a price (the “Termination Price”) equal to (a) if the Terminator is the Servicer purchasing the Mortgage Loans and the REO Properties on its own behalf, 100%
of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all the Mortgage Loans included in REMIC 1 and accrued interest on the Stated Principal Balance of each such Mortgage Loan at the applicable Net Mortgage Rate in effect from time to time from the Due Date as to which
interest was last paid by the related Mortgagor or by an advance by the Servicer to but not including the first day of the month in which such purchase is to be effected, plus the appraised value of each REO Property, if any, included in REMIC 1, such appraisal to be
conducted by an appraiser selected by the Terminator in its reasonable discretion and (b) if the Terminator is the Servicer purchasing the Mortgage Loans and the REO Properties at the request of and on behalf of an unaffiliated third party or is the NIMS
Insurer, the greater of (A) the aggregate Purchase Price of all the Mortgage Loans included in REMIC 1, plus the appraised value of each REO Property, if any, included in REMIC 1, such appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser selected by the
Terminator in its reasonable discretion, and (B) the aggregate fair market value of all of the assets of REMIC 1 (as determined by the Terminator, as of the close of business on the third Business Day next preceding the date upon which notice of any such
termination is furnished to Certificateholders pursuant to the third paragraph of this Section 9.01), and any additional amounts necessary to pay all interest accrued on, as well as amounts necessary to pay in full the principal balance of, the NIM Notes and any
amounts necessary to reimburse the NIMS Insurer for all amounts paid under the NIMs insurance policy and any other amounts reimbursable or otherwise payable to the NIMS Insurer, in each case, with interest thereon at the applicable rate set forth in the Indenture and

including any interest on such Swap Termination Payment at the applicable rate set forth in the Swap Agreement from the Early Termination Date until such Swap Termination Payment is paid.

(b)        The Servicer shall have the right and, if the Servicer does not exercise such right, the NIMS Insurer, shall have the
right (the party exercising such right, the “Terminator”) to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC 1 pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph no later than the Determination Date in the month
immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which the Certificates will be retired; provided, however, that the Terminator may elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC 1 pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding
paragraph only if the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund at the time of such election is equal to or less than 10% of the Cut-off Date Principal Balance of the Closing Date Mortgage Loans. 
Additionally, if the Terminator is the Servicer purchasing the Mortgage Loans and the REO Properties on its own behalf, the Terminator may elect to  purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property in REMIC 1 pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding
paragraph only if the Termination Price (A) is equal to or less than the aggregate fair market value of all of the assets of REMIC 1 (as determined by the Terminator, as of the close of business on the third Business Day next preceding the date upon which notice of
any such termination is furnished to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 9.01(c)), less unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances (other than Advances and Servicing Advances made with respect to Mortgage Loans as to which the Servicer expects that that
foreclosure is not imminent), (B) will result in distributions on the Certificates sufficient (together with all amounts received under the Indenture other than on account of the Certificates) to pay all interest accrued on, as well as amounts necessary to pay in
full the principal balance of, the NIM Notes and any amounts necessary to reimburse the NIMS Insurer for all amounts paid under the NIMs insurance policy and any other amounts reimbursable or otherwise payable to the NIMS Insurer, in each case, with interest thereon
at the applicable rate set forth in the Indenture and to the extent not previously reimbursed or paid (unless the NIMS Insurer consents to a lesser Termination Price) and (C) will result in distributions to the Swap Counterparty sufficient to pay in full all amounts
payable by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee to the Swap Counterparty pursuant to the Swap Agreement, including any Swap Termination Payment payable by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee including any interest on such Swap Termination Payment at the
applicable rate set forth in the Swap Agreement from the Early Termination Date until such Swap Termination Payment is paid.  The Terminator shall give notice to the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee and the Swap Counterparty of its election to purchase all
Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining to REMIC 1 no later than four Business Days prior to the related Determination Date in the month immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which the Certificates will be retired; provided that the Terminator, or the
Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee on its behalf, may request a non-binding estimate of the Swap Termination Payment due upon the exercise of the right of repurchase pursuant to this Section 9.01 prior to such Determination Date.

(c)        Notice of the liquidation of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests shall be given promptly by the Trustee by letter to
Certificateholders mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property by the Terminator, not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of
the final distribution on the Certificates or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or before the Determination Date in such month, in each case specifying (i) the Distribution Date upon which the Trust Fund will terminate and final
payment in respect of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests and the related Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of the related Certificates at the office of the Trustee therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment,
(iii) that no interest shall accrue in respect of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests or the related Certificates from and after the Accrual Period relating to the final Distribution Date therefor and (iv) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such
Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Trustee designated in such notice for purposes of such surrender.  The Trustee shall remit to the Servicer from such funds
deposited in the Distribution Account (i) any amounts which the Servicer would be permitted to withdraw and retain from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.11 and (ii) any other amounts otherwise payable by the Trustee to the Servicer from
amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, in each case prior to making any final distributions pursuant to Section 9.01(d) below.  Upon certification to the Trustee by a Servicing Representative of the making of
such final deposit, the Trustee shall promptly release or cause to be released to the Terminator the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans, and the Trustee shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments necessary to effectuate such
transfer.

(d)        Upon presentation of the Certificates by the Certificateholders on the final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
distribute, in addition with all other amounts distributable in accordance with Section 4.01 on such Distribution Date, to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its Certificates the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution Date in
accordance with Section 4.01 in respect of the Certificates so presented and surrendered.  Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates being retired on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender
their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust by the Trustee and credited to the account of the appropriate non‐tendering Holder or Holders.  If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 9.01
shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non‐tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to
receive the final distribution with respect thereto.  Subject to the applicable law, if within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final
notice to remaining related non‐tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates.  The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in the
trust funds.  If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to WaMu Capital Corp. and Banc of America Securities LLC, equally, all such amounts, and all rights of
non‐tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease.  No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust by the Trustee as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its
Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 9.01.

Upon the completion of winding up of the Trust, including the payment or the making reasonable provision for payment of all obligations of the Trust in accordance with Section 3808(e) of the
Statutory Trust Statute, the Delaware Trustee shall prepare, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and any other trustee hereunder shall sign, and the Delaware Trustee (upon the Trustee’s consent acting at direction of the Servicer) shall file, a certificate of
cancellation with the Secretary of State in accordance with Section 3810 of the Statutory Trust Statute, at which time the Trust and this Agreement shall terminate.  The Servicer shall act as the liquidator of the Trust and shall be responsible for taking all
actions in connection with winding up the Trust, in accordance with the requirements of this Agreement (including this Section 9.01 and Section 9.02) and applicable law.

represented by the Certificates.

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

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

in the manner provided under Treasury regulations Section 1.860F-4(d) and Treasury regulations Section 301.6231(a)(7)-1, as the tax matters person of REMIC PX.  By its acceptance thereof, each such holder hereby agrees to irrevocably appoint the Trustee or an
Affiliate as its agent to perform all of the duties of the tax matters person of each respective REMIC.

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

(e)        The Trustee shall perform on behalf of each Trust REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the
responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority.  Among its other duties, as required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions or such other
compliance guidance, the Trustee shall provide (i) to any Transferor of a Residual Certificate (or other person designated in Section 860E(e)(3) of the Code) and to the Internal Revenue Service such information as is necessary for the computation of any tax
relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original
issue discount and market discount or premium (using the Prepayment Assumption as required) and (iii) to the Internal Revenue Service the name, title, address and telephone number of the person who will serve as the representative of each Trust REMIC.  The
Servicer shall provide on a timely basis to the Trustee such information with respect to the assets of the Trust Fund, including, without limitation, the Mortgage Loans, as is in its possession and reasonably required by the Trustee to enable it to perform its
obligations under this subsection.  In addition, the Depositor shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee, within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Trustee reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes as to
the valuations and issue prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flow of the Certificates.  The Depositor shall also provide such information or data to the NIMS Insurer.

(f)         The Trustee shall take such action and shall cause each Trust REMIC created hereunder to take such action as shall
be necessary to create or maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions (and the Servicer shall assist the Trustee, to the extent reasonably requested by the Trustee to do specific actions in order to assist in the maintenance of such
status).  The Trustee shall not take any action, cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of
any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions set forth in Section 860F(a) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in
Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer have received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer (at the expense of the party seeking to take such
action but in no event at the expense of the Trustee) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to any Trust REMIC, endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax, nor shall the Servicer take or fail to take any action (whether
or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Trustee has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action; provided that the Servicer may conclusively rely on such
Opinion of Counsel and shall incur no liability for its action or failure to act in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel.  The Trustee shall deliver to the NIMS Insurer a copy of any such advice or opinion.  In addition, prior to taking any action with
respect to any Trust REMIC or the assets thereof, or causing any Trust REMIC to take any action, which is not contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer will consult with the Trustee or its designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action
could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to a Trust REMIC, and the Servicer shall not take any such action or cause any Trust REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur;
provided that the Servicer may conclusively rely on such writing and shall incur no liability for its action or failure to act in accordance with such writing.  The Trustee may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne
by the party seeking to take the action not permitted by this Agreement, but in no event shall such cost be an expense of the Trustee.  At all times as may be required by the Code, the Trustee will ensure that substantially all of the assets of REMIC 1 will
consist of “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

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

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

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

(j)         Following the Startup Day, the Trustee shall not accept any contributions of assets to any Trust REMIC other than
in connection with any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in accordance with Section 2.03 unless it shall have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the inclusion of such assets in the Trust Fund will not cause any Trust REMIC to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject any Trust REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances.

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

(l)         The Trustee shall treat each of the Reserve Fund, the Supplemental Interest Trust, the Interest Coverage Account
and the Final Maturity Reserve Trust as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h) that is owned by the Holders of the Class C Certificates and that is not an asset of any REMIC.  The Trustee shall treat the beneficial owners
of the Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates, the Class C Certificates and the Residual Certificates) as having entered into a notional principal contract with respect to the beneficial owners of the Class C Certificates.  Pursuant to each such
notional principal contract, all beneficial owners of the Certificates (other than the Class P Certificates, the Class C Certificates and the Residual Certificates) shall be treated as having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the beneficial owners of the
Class C Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount payable on such Distribution Date on the interest in REMIC 3 corresponding to such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on such Class of Certificates on such
Distribution Date (such excess, a “Class C Shortfall”).  A Class C Shortfall payable from interest collections shall be allocated pro rata among such Certificates based on the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Certificates, and a
Class C Shortfall payable from principal collections shall be allocated to the most subordinate Class of Certificates with an outstanding Certificate Principal Balance to the extent of such balance.  In addition, pursuant to such notional principal contract, the
beneficial owner of the Class C Certificates shall be treated as having agreed to pay (i) Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts and (ii) on any Distribution Date on or after November 2016 through the Distribution Date in October 2026 if amounts are not paid in to the Final
Maturity Reserve Trust because the Final Maturity Reserve Funding Date has occurred or the amount on Schedule III exceeds the Stated Principal Balance of the 40-year Mortgage Loans, any amounts that would have been paid to the Final Maturity Reserve Trust if the
Final Maturity Reserve Funding Date had not occurred or the Stated Principal Balance of the 40-year Mortgage Loans exceeded the amount on Schedule III, to the extent such amounts are used to make payments on such Certificates to the Holders of the Certificates (other
than the Class P Certificates, the Class C Certificates and the Residual Certificates) pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  Any payments on 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 from the Certificates of a Class C 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 3 and as having been paid by such beneficial owners to the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee pursuant to the notional principal contract.  Thus, each Certificate (other than the Class P Certificates, the Class C Certificates and the Residual
Certificates) shall be treated as representing ownership of not only regular interests in REMIC 3, but also ownership of an interest in (and obligations with respect to) a notional principal contract.  For purposes of determining the issue price of the regular
interests in REMIC 3, the Trustee shall assume that the notional principal contract has a value of $10,000 as of the Closing Date in favor of the Certificates (other than the Class C Certificates, the Class P Certificates and the Residual Certificates) and shall
allocate such value proportionately to each such Class of Certificates based on such Class’s initial Certificate Principal Balance.

Section 10.02      Prohibited Transactions and Activities.

None of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the foreclosure
of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of REMIC 1, (iii) the termination of REMIC 1 pursuant to Article IX of this
Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or III of this Agreement), nor acquire any assets for any Trust REMIC (other than REO Property acquired in respect
of a defaulted Mortgage Loan), nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the Distribution Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any Trust REMIC after the Closing Date (other than a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan delivered in
accordance with Section 2.03), unless it and the NIMS Insurer have received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer (at the expense of the party seeking to cause such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution but
in no event at the expense of the Trustee or the Delaware Trustee) that such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution will not (a) affect adversely the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (b) cause any Trust REMIC to be subject to a
tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

Section 10.03      Trustee, Servicer and Depositor Indemnification.

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

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

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

ARTICLE XI

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 11.01      Amendment.

This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and, if applicable, the Custodian, with the consent
of the NIMS Insurer, and if necessary, with the prior written consent of the Swap Counterparty (as described below), and without the consent of any of the Certificateholders, (i) to cure any ambiguity or defect, (ii) to correct, modify or supplement any
provisions herein (including to give effect to the expectations of Certificateholders), or in any Custodial Agreement, (iii) to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary or desirable to maintain the qualification of
the Trust Fund as a REMIC at all times that any Certificate is outstanding or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund pursuant to the Code that would be a claim against the Trust Fund, provided that the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer,
the Depositor and the Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that (A) such action is necessary or desirable to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any such tax and (B) such action will not
adversely affect the status of the Trust Fund as a REMIC or adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Certificateholder or (iv) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement or in any Custodial
Agreement which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement or such Custodial Agreement, provided that, in each case, such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the parties hereto and the NIMS Insurer, adversely
affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder, provided, further, that (A) such action will not affect in any material respect the permitted activities of the Trust and (B) such action will not increase in any material respect the
degree of discretion which the Servicer is allowed to exercise in servicing the Mortgage Loans and, provided, further, that any such amendment which modifies the rights or obligations of the Delaware Trustee hereunder shall require the consent of the Delaware
Trustee.  No amendment shall be deemed to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder who shall have consented thereto, and no Opinion of Counsel shall be required to address the effect of any such amendment on any such
consenting Certificateholder.

This Agreement or any Custodial Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and, if applicable, the Custodian, with the
consent of the NIMS Insurer, and if necessary, with the prior written consent of the Swap Counterparty (as described below), and with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights, for the purpose of adding any provisions to
or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or any Custodial Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the
amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of
any Class of Certificates in a manner, other than as described in (i), without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing at least 66% of the Voting Rights allocated to such Class, or (iii) modify the consents required by the immediately
preceding clauses (i) and (ii) without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates then outstanding and, provided, further, that any such amendment which modifies the rights or obligations of the Delaware Trustee hereunder shall require the consent of
the Delaware Trustee.  Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 11.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof
shall be entitled to Voting Rights with respect to matters affecting such Certificates. 

In addition to the provisions of this Section 11.01 and as long as the Swap Counterparty remains the Swap Counterparty under the Swap Agreement or is owed any amounts under this Agreement, the
prior written consent of the Swap Counterparty shall be necessary for the adoption of any proposed amendment of this Agreement that, in the Swap Counterparty’s reasonable determination, materially affects the Swap Counterparty’s rights or interests under
this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the right to receive any Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment due and owing to it under this Agreement; provided that any such consent of the Swap Counterparty shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment will not result
in the imposition of any tax on any Trust REMIC pursuant to the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.

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

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 11.01 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such
consent shall approve the substance thereof.  The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.

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

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

Section 11.02      Recordation of Agreement; Counterparts.

jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the Servicer at the expense of the Trust, but only upon direction of
Certificateholders accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of the Certificateholders.

heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust, or (iii) otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

Except as expressly provided for herein, no Certificateholder shall have any right to vote or in any manner otherwise control the operation and management of the Trust, or the obligations of
the parties hereto, nor shall anything herein set forth or contained in the terms of the Certificates be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any
liability to any third person by reason of any action taken by the parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof.

No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this

written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred therein or
thereby, and the Trustee for 15 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of indemnity, shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding.  It is understood and intended, and expressly covenanted by each
Certificateholder with every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any
other of such Certificates, or to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder, which priority or preference is not otherwise provided for herein, or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and
for the equal, ratable and common benefit of all Certificateholders.  For the protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 11.03 each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law
or in equity.

Section 11.10      Grant of Security Interest.

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

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee have caused their names to be signed hereto by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, all as

Reverse of Class [__] Certificates

 

Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006-9

Asset-Backed Certificates,

Series 2006-9

 

            This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006-9,
Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006-9 (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust.

 

            The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the
Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that neither the Trustee nor the Delaware Trustee is liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any
liability under the Agreement.

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

            The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and
obligations of the Trustee and the Delaware Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee and of Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of
each Class of Certificates affected by such amendment, as specified in the Agreement. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon
the transfer hereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of
the Certificates.

 

            As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is
registrable in the Certificate Register of the Trustee upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Trustee accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee duly executed
by the holder hereof or such holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the
designated transferee or transferees.

 

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

 

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

 

            The Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, if any, and any agent of the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, if any, may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Delaware Trustee, the NIMS
Insurer, if any, or any such agent shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

 

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

 

            [to be used only in the case of the Class R Certificates:]  [By acceptance of the Class R Certificates, the Holders of the
Class R Certificates direct the Trustee to pay any amounts due to the Holders of the Class R Certificates on the first Distribution Date to the Holders of the Class C Certificates.]

 

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

Re:       Long Beach Mortgage Loan Trust 2006-9, Asset-Backed Certificates

Series 2006-9 (the “Class B Certificates”)

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

 

            This certificate is being delivered in connection with the sale by [___________________] (the “Transferor”) to
[_______________] (the “Transferee”) of Class B Certificates having an Initial Certificate Principal Balance as of October 12, 2006 (the “Closing Date”) of $[____________] (the “Transferred Certificates”).  The Class B
Certificates, including the Transferred Certificates, were issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement dated as of October 1, 2006 (the “Agreement”) among Long Beach Securities Corp., as depositor (the “Depositor”), Washington
Mutual Bank, as servicer (the “Servicer”) and as seller, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (the “Trustee”) and Deutsche Bank Trust Company Delaware, as Delaware Trustee (the “Delaware Trustee”).  All
capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined herein shall have the respective meanings set forth in the Agreement.  The Transferor hereby certifies, represents and warrants to you, as Trustee, and for the benefit of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Trust Fund
and the Transferee, that:

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

Very truly yours,

QUALIFIED INSTITUTIONAL BUYER STATUS UNDER SEC RULE 144A

 

[for Transferees other than Registered Investment Companies]

 

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

 

                        1. As indicated below, the undersigned is the chief
financial officer, a person fulfilling an equivalent function, or other executive officer of the entity purchasing the Transferred Certificates (the “Transferee”).

 

                        2. The Transferee is a “qualified institutional
buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144A”), because (i) the Transferee owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis $[____________] in securities (other than the excluded securities
referred to below) as of the end of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year (such amount being calculated in accordance with Rule 144A) and (ii) the Transferee satisfies the criteria in the category marked below.

 

            ___      Corporation, etc. The Transferee is a

___      Bank. The Transferee (a) is a national bank or a banking institution organized under the laws of any State,
U.S. territory or the District of Columbia, the business of which is substantially confined to banking and is supervised by the State or territorial banking commission or similar official or is a foreign bank or equivalent institution, and (b) has an audited net
worth of at least $25,000,000 as demonstrated in its latest annual financial statements, a copy of which is attached hereto, as of a date not more than 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred Certificate in the case of a U.S. bank, or a banking institution organized under the laws of any State, U.S. territory or the District of Columbia, and not more than 18 months preceding such date of sale for a
foreign bank or equivalent institution.

 

___      Savings and Loan. The Transferee (a) is a savings and loan association, building and loan association,
cooperative bank, homestead association or similar institution, which is supervised and examined by a State or Federal authority having supervision over any such institutions or is a foreign savings and loan association or equivalent institution and (b) has an
audited net worth of at least $25,000,000 as demonstrated in its latest annual financial statements, a copy of which is attached hereto, as of a date not more than 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Transferred Certificate in the case of a U.S.
savings and loan association, building and loan association, cooperative bank, homestead association or similar institution, and not more than 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign savings and
loan association or equivalent institution.

 

___      Broker-dealer. The Transferee is a dealer registered pursuant to Section 15 of the Securities Exchange Act of
1934, as amended.

 

___      Insurance Company. The Transferee is an insurance company whose primary and predominant business activity is
the writing of insurance or the reinsuring of risks underwritten by insurance companies and which is subject to supervision by the insurance commissioner or a similar official or agency of a State, U.S. territory or the District of Columbia.

 

___      State or Local Plan. The Transferee is a plan established and maintained by a State, its political
subdivisions, or any agency or instrumentality of the State or its political subdivisions, for the benefit of its employees.

 

___      ERISA Plan. The Transferee is an employee benefit plan within the meaning of Title I of the Employee
Retirement Income Security Act of 1974.

 

___      Investment Advisor. The Transferee is an investment advisor registered under the Investment Advisers Act of
1940, as amended.

 

___      Other. (Please supply a brief description of the entity and a cross-reference to the paragraph and
subparagraph under subsection (a)(1) of Rule 144A pursuant to which it qualifies. Note that registered investment companies should complete Annex 2 rather than this Annex 1.)
                                           

 

                        3.         The
term “securities” as used herein does not include (i) securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Transferee, (ii) if the Transferee is a dealer, securities that are part of an unsold allotment to or subscription by the Transferee as
a participant in a public offering, (iii) bank deposit notes and certificates of deposit, (iv) loan participations, (v) repurchase agreements, (vi) securities owned but subject to a repurchase agreement and (vii) currency, interest rate and commodity swaps. For
purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee, the Transferee did not include any of the securities referred to in this paragraph.

 

                        4.         For
purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and/or invested on a discretionary basis by the Transferee, the Transferee used the cost of such securities to the Transferee, unless the Transferee reports its securities holdings in its financial
statements on the basis of their market value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities has been published, in which case the securities were valued at market. Further, in determining such aggregate amount, the Transferee may have
included securities owned by subsidiaries of the Transferee, but only if such subsidiaries are consolidated with the Transferee in its financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and if the investments of such
subsidiaries are managed under the Transferee's direction. However, such securities were not included if the Transferee is a majority-owned, consolidated subsidiary of another enterprise and the Transferee is not itself a reporting company under the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

 

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

 

            ___     
___                  Will the Transferee be purchasing the Transferred Certificates

            Yes     
No                   only for the Transferee's own account?

 

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

 

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

determining the amount of securities owned by the Transferee or the Transferee's Family of Investment Companies, the cost of such securities was used, unless the Transferee or any member of the Transferee's Family of Investment Companies, as the case may be, reports
its securities holdings in its financial statements on the basis of their market value, and no current information with respect to the cost of those securities has been published, in which case the securities of such entity were valued at market.

 

____                The Transferee owned and/or invested on a
discretionary basis $[____________] in securities (other than the excluded securities referred to below) as of the end of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year (such amount being calculated in accordance with Rule 144A).

 

____                The Transferee is part of a Family of Investment
Companies which owned in the aggregate $[____________] in securities (other than the excluded securities referred to below) as of the end of the Transferee's most recent fiscal year (such amount being calculated in accordance with Rule 144A).

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

                        Yes     
No                  

 

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

 

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

Columbia, the business of which is substantially confined to banking and is supervised by the State or territorial banking commission or similar official or is a foreign bank or equivalent institution, and (b) has an audited net worth of at least $25,000,000 as
demonstrated in its latest annual financial statements, a copy of which is attached hereto, as of a date not more than 16 months preceding the date of sale of the Certificates in the case of a U.S. bank or a banking institution
organized under the laws of any State, U.S. territory or the District of Columbia, and not more than 18 months preceding such date of sale for a foreign bank or equivalent institution.

_____  Other. (Please supply a brief description of the entity and a cross-reference to the paragraph

            3.         The term “securities” as used herein does not

of deposit, (iv) loan participations, (v) repurchase agreements, (vi) securities owned but subject to a repurchase agreement and (vii) currency, interest rate and commodity swaps.  For purposes of determining the aggregate amount of securities owned and/or

                        Yes      No

 

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

 

            7.         Until the date of purchase of the Rule 144A Securities, the Buyer will
notify each of the parties to which this certification is made of any changes in the information and conclusions herein. Until such notice is given, the Buyer’s purchase of the Certificates will constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of
such purchase. In addition, if the Buyer is a bank or savings and loan as provided above, the Buyer agrees that it will furnish to such parties updated annual financial statements promptly after they become available.

securities of issuers that are affiliated with the Buyer or are part of the Buyer’s Family of Investment Companies, (ii) bank deposit notes and certificates of deposit, (iii) loan participations, (iv) repurchase agreements, (v) securities owned but subject

No

COUNTY OF __________    )

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

 

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

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

 

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

 

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

 

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