This Pooling and Servicing Agreement, is dated and effective as of July 1, 2005, among AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC., as Depositor, AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE COMPANY, as Master Servicer and DEUTSCHE BANK NATIONAL TRUST COMPANY, as Trustee.

PRELIMINARY STATEMENT:

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

REMIC I

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

 ________________

	
            (1)
 	
            For purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury regulations, the Distribution Date immediately following the maturity date for the Mortgage Loan with the latest maturity date has been designated as the “latest possible maturity date” for each REMIC I Regular Interest.
 

	
            (2)
 	
            Calculated in accordance with the definition of “REMIC I Remittance Rate” herein.
 

 

REMIC II

As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the REMIC I Regular Interests as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets shall be designated as “REMIC II.”  The Class R-II Interest shall evidence the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC II for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the REMIC II Remittance Rate, the initial Uncertificated Balance and, for purposes of satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” for each of the REMIC II Regular Interests (as defined herein). None of the REMIC II Regular Interests shall be certificated.

REMIC IV

 

 

As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect to treat the segregated pool of assets consisting of the REMIC III Regular Interests as a REMIC for federal income tax purposes, and such segregated pool of assets shall be designated as “REMIC IV.”  The Class R-IV Interest shall evidence the sole class of “residual interests” in REMIC IV for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The following table irrevocably sets forth the designation, the Pass-Through Rate, the initial aggregate Certificate Principal Balance and, for purposes of satisfying Treasury regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii), the “latest possible maturity date” for the indicated classes of Certificates and interests.

Each Certificate, other than the Class P Certificate, the Class CE Certificate and the Class R Certificates, represents ownership of a Regular Interest in REMIC IV and also represents (i) the right to receive payments with respect to the Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount (as defined herein) and (ii) the obligation to pay Class IO Distribution Amounts (as defined herein). The entitlement to principal of the Regular Interest which corresponds to each Certificate shall be equal in amount and timing to the entitlement to principal of such Certificate.

The Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, or to the appropriate Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, promptly upon receipt thereof any other original documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File received with respect to any Mortgage Loan, including, but not limited to, any original documents evidencing an assumption or modification of any Mortgage Loan.

The Master 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 Master Servicer and the Trustee, following the later of (i) the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which the Seller receives the Assignment from the Custodian and (iii) the date of receipt by the Master Servicer of the recording information for a Mortgage) submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at no expense to the Trust Fund or the Trustee, in the appropriate public office for real property records, each Assignment referred to in Sections 2.01(iii) and (iv) above and shall execute each original Assignment referred to in Section 2.01(iii) above in the following form:  “Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee under the applicable agreement.”  In the event that any such Assignment is lost or
returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Master Servicer (in its capacity as Seller) shall promptly prepare or cause to be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, for administrative convenience and facilitation of servicing and to reduce closing costs, the Assignments shall not be required to be submitted for recording (except with respect to any Mortgage Loan located in Maryland) unless 

 

such failure to record would result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by any Rating Agency of the rating on any Class of Certificates; provided further, however, each Assignment shall be submitted for recording by the Seller in the manner described above, at no expense to the Trust Fund or the Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction by Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights or the NIMS Insurer, (ii) failure of the Master Servicer Termination Test, (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy or insolvency relating to the Seller, (iv) the occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 hereof and (v) if the Seller is not the Master Servicer and with respect to any one Assignment or Mortgage, the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Master
Servicer is unable to pay the cost of recording the Assignments, such expense shall be paid by the Trustee and shall be reimbursable to the Trustee as an Extraordinary Trust Fund Expense.

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

The parties hereto understand and agree that it is not intended that any mortgage loan be included in the Trust that is a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined by HOEPA or any other applicable predatory or abusive lending laws.

	
            SECTION 2.02.
 	
            Acceptance of REMIC I 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 acknowledges receipt (or, with respect to Mortgage Loans subject to a Custodial Agreement, receipt by the respective Custodian as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee) of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) above and all interests and all other assets included in the definition of “REMIC I” under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (v) (to the extent of amounts deposited into the Distribution Account) and declares that it, or such Custodian as its agent, holds and shall hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File, and that it holds or shall hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “REMIC
I” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.

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

The Trustee agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review (or cause a Custodian on its behalf to review) each Mortgage Note within 45 days of the Closing Date and to 

 

certify in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 (or cause the Custodian to certify in the form of the Initial Certification attached to the Custodial Agreement) that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it or such Custodian and are not mutilated, torn or defaced unless initialed by the related borrower and relate to such Mortgage Loan, (iii) based on its or the Custodian’s examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage
Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (1) through (3), (6), (9), (10), (13), (15) and (19) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee or such Custodian was under no duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine whether they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or whether they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face or (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clause (v) of Section 2.01.

Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C-2 (or shall cause the Custodian to deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer a final certification in the form attached to the Custodial Agreement) evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon, with respect to all of the Mortgage Loans. Upon the request of the Master Servicer, any exception report related to the final certification shall be provided in an electronic computer readable format as mutually agreed upon by the Master Servicer and the Trustee.

If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Trustee or any Custodian finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing, mutilated, torn or defaced or does not conform to the requirements identified above, at the conclusion of its review the Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) shall so notify the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties.

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

 

 

	
            SECTION 2.03.
 	
            Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the Seller or the Depositor; Payment of Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts.
 

(a)        Upon discovery or receipt of notice (including notice under Section 2.02) 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 adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee shall promptly notify the Seller, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date the Seller had knowledge or was notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or
breach in all material respects during such period, the Master Servicer (or, in accordance with Section 6.06(b), the Trustee) shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC I at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Seller was notified (subject to Section 2.03(d)) 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, upon receipt of written certification from the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released pursuant
hereto, and the Trustee shall not 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 I (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(c). 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 document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.

(b)        (i)         Promptly upon the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Master Servicer set forth in Section 2.05, which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.

	
            (ii)
 	
            Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 2.03(b)(i) above,
 

(A)       on the later of (x) the Master Servicer Remittance Date next following the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer of the breach of the representation made by the Master Servicer in Section 2.05(vii), which breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Holders of the Class P 

 

Certificates to any Prepayment Charge and (y) the Master Servicer Remittance Date next following the Prepayment Period relating to such a breach, the Master Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account the amount of the scheduled Prepayment Charge, less any amount collected and deposited by the Master Servicer into the Collection Account in respect of such Prepayment Charge; and

(B)        on the  later of (x) the Master Servicer Remittance Date next following the earlier of discovery by the Master Servicer or receipt of notice by the Master Servicer of the breach of the covenant made by the Master Servicer in Section 2.05(viii), which breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Holders of the Class P Certificates to any Prepayment Charge and (y) the Master Servicer Remittance Date next following the Prepayment Period relating to such a breach, the Master Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account, as a Master Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amount, the amount of the waived Prepayment Charge, but only to the extent required under Section 2.03(b)(iii) below.

	
            (iii)
 	
            If with respect to any Prepayment Period,
 

(A)       the dollar amount of Prepayment Charges that are the subject of breaches by the Master Servicer of the covenant made by the Master Servicer in Section 2.05(viii), which breaches materially and adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Class P Certificates to such Prepayment Charges, exceeds

(B)        5% of the total dollar amount of Prepayment Charges payable by Mortgagors in connection with Principal Prepayments on the related Mortgage Loans that occurred during such Prepayment Period,

then the amount required to be paid by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 2.03(b)(ii)(B) above shall be limited to an amount, that when added to the amount of Prepayment Charges actually collected by the Master Servicer in respect of Prepayment Charges relating to Principal Prepayments on the related Mortgage Loans that occurred during such Prepayment Period, shall yield a sum equal to 95% of the total dollar amount of Prepayment Charges (exclusive of  (A) Prepayment Charges not enforced or collected upon because (i) the enforceability thereof shall have been limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally or (ii) the collectability thereof shall  have been limited due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment and (B) Prepayment Charges waived by the Master Servicer when such waiver does
not breach the covenant set forth in Section 2.05(viii)) payable by Mortgagors in connection with Principal Prepayments on the related Mortgage Loans that occurred during such Prepayment Period.

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

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

 

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

For any month in which the Depositor or the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall determine the amount (the “Substitution Shortfall Amount”), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate of, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Scheduled Principal Balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one month’s interest on such Scheduled Principal Balance at the applicable Net Mortgage Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account an amount equal to the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if any, and the Trustee, upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan or Loans and certification by the Master Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, the related Mortgage File or Files and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

 

 

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

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

	
            SECTION 2.04.
 	
            [Reserved].
 

	
            SECTION 2.05.

relating to creditors’ rights generally and (b) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought;

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

be limited due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment;

(viii)      The Master Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge or part of a Prepayment Charge unless, (i) the enforceability thereof shall have been limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally or (ii) the collectability thereof shall  have been limited due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment or (iii) in the Master Servicer’s reasonable judgment as described in Section 3.01 hereof, (x) such waiver relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default, (y) such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and related Mortgage Loan and (z) doing so is standard and customary in servicing similar Mortgage Loans (including any waiver of a

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

the case of the 

 

representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Section 2.05(vii) and Section 2.05(viii) above, to otherwise remedy such breaches pursuant to Section 2.03(b)) shall constitute the sole remedies against the Master Servicer available to the Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders respecting a breach of the representations, warranties and covenants contained in this Section 2.05. The preceding sentence shall not, however, limit any remedies available to the Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders (other than in the case of the representations, warranties and covenants set forth in Section 2.05(vii) and Section 2.05(viii) above) pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement signed by the Master Servicer in its capacity as Seller, respecting a breach of the representations, warranties and covenants of the Master

The Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it of the Mortgage Loans and the delivery to it of the Mortgage Files, subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and Section 2.02, together with the assignment to it of all other assets included in REMIC I, the receipt of which is hereby acknowledged.

(d)        The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the REMIC III Regular Interests (which are uncertificated) for the benefit of the Holders of the REMIC IV Regular Interests and the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-IV Interest). The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the REMIC III Regular Interests and declares that it holds and shall hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of the Holders of the REMIC IV Regular Interests and the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-IV Interest).

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING

OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

	
            SECTION 3.01.
 	
            Master Servicer to Act as Master Servicer.
 

The Master Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trustee and in the best interests of and for the benefit of the Certificateholders (as determined by the Master Servicer in its reasonable judgment) in accordance with (i) the terms of the respective Mortgage Loans and any insurance policies related thereto, (ii) all Applicable Regulations, (iii) the terms of this Agreement, (iv) the Loss Mitigation Action Plan, if applicable, and (v) to the extent consistent with the preceding requirements, 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 prudent mortgage lenders and loan servicers administering similar mortgage loans but without regard to:

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

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

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

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

Subject only to the above-described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the respective Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 6.06, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Sub-Servicer is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee, in accordance with the servicing standards set forth above, (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, or of forbearance, or of modification and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the
Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties, (ii) to institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure to convert the ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such properties, in the name of the Trust Fund, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, (iii) to market, sell and transfer title of REO Properties held in the name of the Trust Fund to third party purchasers upon terms and conditions the Master Servicer deems reasonable under the Servicing Standard, (iv) to bring or respond to civil actions or complaints (in its own name or that of the Trust Fund or the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund) related to any Mortgage Loan, Mortgaged Property or REO 

 

Property held by the Trust Fund and (v) to execute any other document necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder consistent with the Servicing Standard.

At the written request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and furnish to the Master Servicer such documents as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties hereunder. By execution of this Agreement, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund, hereby grants to the Master Servicer a power of attorney to execute any and all documents necessary to carry out any and all servicing duties described in this Agreement (including the taking of and transferring title of REO Properties to third parties held in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Trust) and expressly confirms that this paragraph along with the face page and a copy of the signature page (duly executed) to this Agreement shall constitute the power of attorney for evidentiary and/or recording purposes. The Trustee shall not be liable for the actions
of the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicers under such powers of attorney.

Subject to Section 3.04(d) hereof, in accordance with the Servicing Standard, the Master Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be Servicing Advances reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.04(d), and further as provided in Section 3.05(a). Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or by Sub-Servicers in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on a Mortgaged Property shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.

Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is in conformity with the Servicing Standard; provided, however, that:

(A)       the Master Servicer shall not make future advances (except as provided in Section 4.03);

(B)        the Master Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Rate, defer or forgive the payment of any principal or interest payments, reduce the outstanding Stated Principal Balance (except for reductions resulting from actual payments of principal) or extend the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan (unless as provided in Section 3.02, (i) the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or (ii) such default is, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, reasonably foreseeable); and

(C)       the Master Servicer shall not consent to (i) partial releases of Mortgages, (ii) alterations, (iii) removal, demolition or division of properties subject to Mortgages, (iv) modification or (v) second mortgage subordination agreements with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would: (i) affect adversely the status of any Trust REMIC as a REMIC, (ii) cause any Trust REMIC to be subject to a tax on “prohibited transactions” or 

 

“contributions” pursuant to the REMIC Provisions, or (iii) both (x) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (y) cause any Trust REMIC constituting part of the Trust Fund 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.

To the extent consistent with the terms of this Agreement, including Section 2.03 and Section 2.05, the Master Servicer may waive (or permit a Sub-Servicer to waive) a Prepayment Charge only under the following circumstances: (i) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar Mortgage Loans and (ii) such waiver relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan.

The Master Servicer may delegate its responsibilities under this Agreement; provided, however, that no such delegation shall release the Master Servicer from the responsibilities or liabilities arising under this Agreement. All references to Master Servicer in this Agreement shall be deemed to include any Sub-Servicer duly appointed by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Agreement.

	
            SECTION 3.02.
 	
            Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.
 

The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any applicable insurance policies, follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account. Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, penalty interest, (ii) waive any provision of any Mortgage Loan requiring the related Mortgagor to submit to mandatory arbitration with respect to disputes arising thereunder or (iii) extend the due dates for the Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided that any extension pursuant to clause
(iii) above shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder. The NIMS Insurer’s prior written consent shall be required for any modification, waiver or amendment if the aggregate number of outstanding Mortgage Loans which have been modified, waived or amended exceeds 5% of the number of Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date. In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (iii) above, the Master Servicer shall make timely advances on such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.03 and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Master Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Master Servicer, consistent with the Servicing Standard, 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, or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant indulgence to any Mortgagor (any and all such waivers, modifications, variances, forgiveness of principal or interest, postponements, or indulgences collectively referred to herein as “forbearance”), provided, however, that in determining which course of action permitted by this sentence it shall pursue, the Master Servicer shall adhere to the Loss Mitigation Action Plan. The Master Servicer’s analysis supporting any forbearance and the conclusion that any forbearance meets the standards of Section 3.01 and the Loss Mitigation Action Plan shall be reflected in writing in the Mortgage File.

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 Master Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Master 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 Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor and any successor master servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities shall survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement.

In the event the Master Servicer shall deposit in an Escrow Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from such Escrow Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. As part of its servicing duties, the Master Servicer shall pay to the Mortgagor interest on funds in the Escrow Account, to the extent required by the related Mortgage Loan or Applicable Regulations, and to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Escrow Account is insufficient, shall pay such interest from its own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer may pay to itself any excess interest on funds in the Escrow Account, to the extent such action is in conformity with the Servicing Standard, is permitted by law and such amounts are not required to be paid to Mortgagors or used for any of the other purposes set forth above.

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

(i)         to make distributions to the Swap Account in accordance with Section 4.10;

 

 

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

	
            (iii)
 	
            to pay to itself amounts to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 8.05;
 

(iv)        to pay itself any interest income earned on funds deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.06;

	
            (v)
 	
            to reimburse itself pursuant to Section 7.01 and Section 7.02(b);
 	
             

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

(vii)       to reimburse the NIMS Insurer for Net Swap Payments paid by the NIMS Insurer to either the Interest Rate Swap Provider or the Group II Swap Provider pursuant to Section 4.10 (only to the extent the Trustee’s failure to make distributions in accordance with Section 3.05(c)(i) is not due to insufficient funds in the Distribution Accout); and

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

	
            SECTION 3.06.
 	
            Investment of Funds in the Collection Account, the Escrow Account, the REO Account and the Distribution Account.
 

(a)        The Master Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account, the Escrow Account (subject to Section 3.05(b)), and the REO Account and the Trustee may direct any depository institution maintaining the Distribution Account (for purposes of this Section 3.06, each 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 Investment Account pursuant to this
Agreement, if the Trustee is the obligor thereon. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Trustee (in its capacity as such) or in the name of a nominee of the Trustee. The Trustee shall be entitled to sole possession (except with respect to investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account, the Escrow Account, and the REO Account) over each such investment and (except with respect to the income on funds held in the Collection Account, the Escrow Account and the REO Account) the income thereon, 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:

(i)         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

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

(b)        All income in the nature of interest from the investment of funds in the Collection Account, the Escrow Account (subject to Section 3.05(b)) and the REO Account shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as compensation for the Master Servicer’s services pursuant to this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account, the Escrow Account, and the REO Account , as applicable, from its own funds the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such account immediately upon realization of such loss.

(c)        All income in the nature of interest or earnings from the investment of funds in the Distribution Account shall be for the benefit of the Trustee as compensation for the Trustee’s services pursuant to this Agreement. The Trustee shall deposit in the Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any loss incurred on Permitted Investments in the Distribution Account.

(d)        Funds on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with Section 4.11 and any investment earnings or interest paid shall accrue to the benefit of the party designated in such section and the party so designated shall deposit in the related account from its own funds the amount of any loss incurred on Permitted Investments in such account.

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

(f)         The Trustee or its Affiliates are permitted to receive compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Permitted Investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable pursuant to Section 3.05.

	
            SECTION 3.07.
 	
            Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges.
 

With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates and other charges 

 

which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of fire and hazard insurance coverage and, as to those Mortgage Loans subject to a voluntary escrow agreement, shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of the Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which shall have been estimated and accumulated by the Master Servicer in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the terms of the Mortgage or Applicable Regulations. The Master Servicer assumes full responsibility for the timely payment of all such bills and shall effect timely 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 Servicing Advances from its own funds to effect such payments. To the extent that the Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Servicing Standard to determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor at the time they first become due and shall ensure that the Mortgaged Property is not lost to a tax lien as a result of nonpayment and that such Mortgaged Property is not left uninsured.

	
            SECTION 3.08.
 	
            Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.
 

The Master 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 current Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan, (ii) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis and (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such Mortgaged Property, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy. The Master Servicer shall also cause to be maintained fire insurance with extended coverage on each REO Property in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements
which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, plus accrued interest at the Mortgage Rate and related Servicing Advances (each measured at the time it became an REO Property). The Master Servicer shall comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Master Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the procedures that the Master Servicer would follow in servicing loans held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.13, if received in respect of an REO Property. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the 

 

Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the Master Servicer shall 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 Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan; (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program); and (iii) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are part of the related Mortgaged Property.

	
            SECTION 3.09.
 	
            Maintenance of Mortgage Blanket Insurance.
 

In the event that the Master Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of “A:V” 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 Section 3.08, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Master Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first two sentences of Section 3.08, and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Collection Account from its own funds the amount not otherwise payable
under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause. In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.

	
            SECTION 3.10.
 	
            Fidelity Bond; Errors and Omissions Insurance.
 

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

 

 

	
            SECTION 3.11.
 	
            Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.
 

The Master Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so. If the Master Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Master Servicer is authorized to enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom
such property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Master Servicer is also authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note, provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such person satisfies the underwriting criteria of the Master Servicer. In connection with any assumption or substitution, the Master Servicer shall apply such underwriting standards and follow such practices and procedures as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and as it applies to other mortgage loans owned solely by it. The Master Servicer shall not take or enter into any assumption and modification
agreement, however, unless (to the extent practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance policy, or a new policy meeting the requirements of this Section is obtained. Any fee collected by the Master Servicer in respect of an assumption or substitution of liability agreement shall be retained by the Master Servicer as additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related Mortgage Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof or otherwise permitted under Section 3.01. The Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee and any respective Custodian that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee or to such Custodian, as the case may be, the executed original of
such substitution or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which the Master Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatever. For purposes of this Section 3.11, 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 3.12.
 	
            Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
 

(a)        The Master Servicer shall, consistent with the Servicing Standard and the Loss Mitigation Action Plan, 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 3.02. The Master Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses shall be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Master Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.05 and Section 3.13. The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an Uninsured Cause, the Master Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds
toward the restoration of such property unless it shall determine in its discretion that such restoration shall 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 3.12 or any other provision of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Master Servicer has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Master Servicer shall not, on behalf of the Trustee, either (i) obtain title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action with respect to, such Mortgaged Property, if, as a result of any such action, the Trustee, the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders would be considered to hold title to, to be a “mortgagee-in-possession” of, or to be an “owner” or “operator” of such Mortgaged Property within the
meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Master Servicer has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a report prepared by a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry standards, that:

(i)         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

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

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such environmental audit reveals, or if the Master Servicer has actual knowledge or notice, that such Mortgaged Property contains such toxic or hazardous wastes or substances, the Master 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 3.12 shall be advanced by the Master Servicer, subject to the Master Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(a)(v), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of  Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.

If the Master Servicer determines, as described above, that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund to take such actions as are necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Master Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure if the estimated costs of the environmental clean up, as estimated in the environmental audit report, together with the Advances made by the Master Servicer and the estimated costs of foreclosure or acceptance
of a deed in lieu of foreclosure exceeds the estimated value of the Mortgaged Property. The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Master Servicer, subject to the Master Servicer’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as provided in Section 3.05(a)(v), such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account received in respect of the affected Mortgage Loan or other Mortgage Loans.

(c)        Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries or Liquidation Proceeds, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, shall be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances, pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(ii); 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 shall be allocated by the Master Servicer as follows: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; and second, to the balance of the interest then due and owing. The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be reimbursed to the Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(ii).

	
            SECTION 3.13.
 	
            Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.
 

(a)        The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Pursuant to the power of attorney granted in Section 3.01, the Master Servicer is hereby authorized to transfer the title of any REO Property taken in the name of the Trustee to a third party purchaser pursuant to this Section 3.13 without further documentation of its authority as attorney-in-fact for the Trustee on behalf of the Trust. The Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund (and on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders), shall either sell any REO Property 

 

before the close of the third taxable year after the year the Trust Fund acquires ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or request from the Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days before the day on which the three-year grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of the three-year grace period, unless the Master Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee, 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 the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition shall 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. The Master Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the benefit of the Certificateholders and solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by any Trust REMIC of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any “net income from foreclosure property” which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions.

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

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

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

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

 

 

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

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

Notwithstanding the Master Servicer’s obligation to the Certificateholders to manage and operate (including the collection of rents from existing tenants and management of any leases acquired with the REO property to the extent applicable) the REO Property from the date of acquisition until the date of sale, neither the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall knowingly:

(i)         authorize the Trust Fund to enter into, renew or extend any New Lease with respect to any REO Property, if the New Lease by its terms shall 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 shall constitute Rents from Real Property;

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

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

unless, in any such case, the Master Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel, provided to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, to the effect that such action shall not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held by the Trust Fund, and (B) the Master Servicer has received written notice from the Trustee that it has received written consent from the NIMS Insurer (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld) that the specific action may be taken.

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

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

(ii)         any such contract shall require, or shall be administered to require, that the Independent Contractor pay all costs and expenses incurred in connection with the operation and management of such REO Property, including those listed above and remit 

 

all related revenues (net of such costs and expenses) to the Master Servicer as soon as practicable, but in no event later than thirty days following the receipt thereof by such Independent Contractor;

(iii)        none of the provisions of this Section 3.13(c) relating to any such contract or to actions taken through any such Independent Contractor shall be deemed to relieve the Master Servicer of any of its duties and obligations to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

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

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Master Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. The Master Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether the Master Servicer’s compensation pursuant to Section 3.18 is sufficient to pay such fees. The Master Servicer shall not engage an Independent Contractor to engage in any activities that the Master Servicer would not be permitted to engage in itself in accordance with the other provisions of this Agreement (including the Loss Mitigation Action Plan).

(d)        In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section 3.13(c), the Master 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 Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account maintained by it and deposit into the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.04(g)(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 3.13(c)
or this Section 3.13(d).

(e)        Subject to the time constraints set forth in Section 3.13(a) (including the constraint that the Master Servicer hold and manage each REO Property “solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition”) each REO disposition shall be carried out by the Master Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as shall be in conformity with the requirements of the Loss Mitigation Action Plan and 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 Master Servicer or any Sub-Servicer as provided above, shall be deposited in the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.04(g)(ii) on the Master Servicer Remittance Date in the month following the receipt thereof for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01. Any REO Disposition shall be for cash only 

 

(unless changes in the REMIC Provisions made subsequent to the Startup Day allow a sale for other consideration).

	
            SECTION 3.14.
 	
            [Reserved].
 

	
            SECTION 3.15.
 	
            Reports of Foreclosure and Abandonment of Mortgaged Properties.
 

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

	
            SECTION 3.16.
 	
            Optional Purchase of Defaulted Mortgage Loans.
 

(a)         (i) The NIMS Insurer may, at its option, purchase a Mortgage Loan which has become 90 or more days delinquent or for which the Master Servicer has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure. Prior to purchase pursuant to this Section 3.16(a)(i), the Master Servicer shall be required to continue to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.03. The NIMS Insurer shall not use any procedure in selecting Mortgage Loans to be repurchased which is materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders. The NIMS Insurer shall purchase such delinquent Mortgage Loan at a price equal to the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan. Any such purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.16(a)(i) shall be accomplished by remittance to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account of the amount of the Purchase Price.
The Trustee shall effectuate the conveyance of such delinquent Mortgage Loan to the NIMS Insurer to the extent necessary, as requested, and the Trustee shall promptly deliver all documentation to the NIMS Insurer.

(i)         During the first full calendar month (but excluding the last Business Day thereof) following a Mortgage Loan or related REO Property becoming 90 days or more delinquent, the Master Servicer shall have the option, but not the obligation to purchase from the Trust Fund any such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property that is then still 90 days or more delinquent, which the Master Servicer determines in good faith shall 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. The Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property purchased hereunder shall be deposited in the Collection Account, and the Trustee, upon written certification of such deposit, shall release or cause to
be released to the Master Servicer the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Master Servicer shall furnish and as shall be necessary to vest in the Master Servicer title to any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property released pursuant hereto.

(b)        If with respect to any delinquent Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, the option of the Master Servicer set forth in the preceding paragraph shall have arisen but the 

 

Master Servicer shall have failed to exercise such option on or before the Business Day preceding the last Business Day of the calendar month following the calendar month during which such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property first became 90 days or more delinquent, then such option shall automatically expire; provided, however, that if any such Mortgage Loan or related REO Property shall cease to be 90 days or more delinquent but then subsequently shall again become 90 days or more delinquent, then the Master Servicer shall be entitled to another repurchase option with respect to such Mortgage Loan or REO Property as provided in the preceding paragraph.

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

(a)        Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer shall promptly notify the Trustee and any related Custodian by a certification in the form of Exhibit E or such other form supplied by the Master Servicer provided that it does not differ from the substantive content of Exhibit E (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.04(b) have been or shall be so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request delivery to it of the Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee or such Custodian,
as the case may be, shall promptly release (and in no event more than three (3) Business Days thereafter) the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer. 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 and any related Custodian shall, upon request of the Master Servicer and delivery to the Trustee or such Custodian, as the case may be, of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit E or such other form supplied by the Master Servicer provided that it does not differ from the substantive content of Exhibit E, release the related Mortgage File to the Master Servicer, and the Trustee shall, at the direction of the Master Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings and the Master Servicer shall retain such Mortgage File in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Such Request for
Release shall obligate the Master Servicer to return each and every document previously requested from the Mortgage File to the Trustee or to such Custodian when the need therefor by the Master Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account or the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Master Servicer has delivered to the Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. Upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating that such Mortgage Loan
was liquidated and that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such liquidation that are required to be deposited into the Collection Account have been so deposited, or that such Mortgage Loan has 

 

become an REO Property, upon request, a copy of the Request for Release shall be released by the Trustee or such Custodian to the Master Servicer.

(c)        Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Master Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents reasonably necessary to the foreclosure or trustee’s sale in respect of a Mortgaged Property or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment, or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or in equity. Each such certification shall include a request that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and a statement as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee shall not invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the
Mortgage, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale.

(d)        The Trustee and the Master Servicer may mutually agree on policies and procedures (commercially reasonable in nature) to allow the submission of any and all requests for the release of a Mortgage File electronically with a digital signature or other identifier to designate the Servicing Officer of the Master Servicer requesting such collateral.

	
            SECTION 3.18.
 	
            Servicing Compensation.
 

As compensation for the activities of the Master Servicer hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such Mortgage Loan, subject to Section 4.03(e). In addition, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees out of Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries or Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a)(ii), out of general funds in the Collection Account to the extent permitted by Section 3.05(a) and out of amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.13. The right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement.

Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, late payment charges, insufficient funds fees, reconveyance fees and other similar fees and charges (other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Master Servicer only to the extent such amounts, fees or charges are received by the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.05(a)(vi) to withdraw from the Collection Account, pursuant to Section 3.04(h) to withdraw from any Escrow Account and pursuant to Section 3.13(b) to withdraw from any REO Account, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein, subject to Section 3.06. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including premiums for the insurance required by Section 3.08, Section 3.09 and Section
3.10, to the extent such premiums are not paid by the related Mortgagors or by a Sub-Servicer, servicing compensation of each Sub-Servicer, and to the extent provided 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.
 	
            Statement as to Compliance.
 

The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor and each Rating Agency on or before March 15th of each calendar year commencing in 2006, an Officers’ Certificate in a form similar to Exhibit M attached hereto agreeable to the parties hereto, stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Master Servicer during the preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers’ supervision and (ii) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Master Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof. Copies
of any such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon the request and at the expense of the requesting party, provided that such statement is delivered by the Master Servicer to the Trustee.

	
            SECTION 3.20.
 	
            Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Report.
 

Not later than March 15th of each calendar year commencing in 2006, the Master Servicer, at its expense, shall cause a nationally recognized firm of independent certified public accountants to furnish to the Master Servicer a report stating that (i) it has obtained a letter of representation regarding certain matters from the management of the Master Servicer which includes an assertion that the Master Servicer has complied with certain minimum residential mortgage loan servicing standards, identified in the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers established by the Mortgage Bankers Association of America, with respect to the servicing of residential mortgage loans during the most recently completed calendar year and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted by such firm in accordance with standards established by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, such representation is fairly stated in all material respects, subject to such exceptions and other qualifications that may be appropriate. In rendering its report such firm may rely, as to matters relating to the direct servicing of residential mortgage loans by Sub-Servicers, upon comparable reports of firms of independent certified public accountants rendered on the basis of examinations conducted in accordance with the same standards (rendered within one year of such report) with respect to those Sub-Servicers. Immediately upon receipt of such report, the Master Servicer shall furnish a copy of such report to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and each Rating Agency. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder upon request at the Master Servicer’s expense, provided that such statement is delivered by the Master Servicer to the Trustee. In the event such firm of independent certified public
accountants requires the Trustee to agree to the procedures performed by such firm, the Master Servicer shall direct the Trustee in writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the Trustee shall deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Master Servicer, and the Trustee has not made any independent inquiry or investigation as to, and shall have no obligation or liability in respect of, the sufficiency, validity or correctness of such procedures.

 

 

	
            SECTION 3.21.
 	
            Access to Certain Documentation.
 

The Master Servicer shall provide to the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable laws and regulations. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In addition, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans shall be provided to any Certificateholder or Certificate Owner, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and to any Person identified to the Master Servicer as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon reasonable request during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it at the expense of the Person
requesting such access. In each case, access to any documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans may be conditioned upon the requesting party’s acknowledgment in writing of a confidentiality agreement regarding any information that is required to remain confidential under the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act of 1999.

	
            SECTION 3.22.
 	
            [Reserved].
 	
             

	
            SECTION 3.23.
 	
            Advance Facility.
 

(a)        The Master Servicer and/or the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund, in either case, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer in the case of the Trustee, is hereby authorized to enter into a facility (an “Advance Facility”) with any Person (an “Advancing Person”) (1) under which the Master Servicer sells, assigns or pledges to the Advancing person the Master Servicer’s rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed for any Advances and/or Servicing Advances or (2) which provides that the Advancing Person may fund Advances and/or Servicing Advances to the Trust Fund under this Agreement, although no such facility shall reduce or otherwise affect the Master Servicer’s obligation to fund such Advances and/or Servicing Advances. If the Master Servicer enters into such an Advance Facility pursuant
to this Section 3.23, upon reasonable request of the Advancing Person, the Trustee shall execute a letter of acknowledgment, confirming its receipt of notice of the existence of such Advance Facility. To the extent that an Advancing Person funds any Advance or any Servicing Advance or is assigned the right to be reimbursed for any Advance or Servicing Advance and provides the Trustee with notice acknowledged by the Master Servicer that such Advancing Person is entitled to reimbursement directly from the Trustee pursuant to the terms of the Advance Facility, such Advancing Person shall be entitled to receive reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement for such amount to the extent provided in Section 3.23(b). Such notice from the Advancing Person must specify the amount of the reimbursement, the Section of this Agreement that permits the applicable Advance or Servicing Advance to be reimbursed and the section(s) of the Advance Facility that entitle the Advancing Person to request
reimbursement from the Trustee, rather than the Master Servicer, and include the Master Servicer’s acknowledgment thereto or proof of an Event of Default under the Advance Facility. The Trustee shall have no duty or liability with respect to any calculation of any reimbursement to be paid to an Advancing Person and shall be entitled to rely without independent investigation on the Advancing Person’s notice provided pursuant to this Section 3.23. An Advancing Person whose obligations hereunder are limited to the funding of Advances and/or Servicing Advances shall not be required to meet the qualifications of a Master Servicer or a Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 6.06 hereof and shall 

 

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 Fund would not materially and adversely affect the interests of any Certificateholder, then the NIMS Insurer shall not withhold its consent to the Trust Fund’s entering such facility.

(b)        If, pursuant to the terms of the Advance Facility, an Advancing Person is entitled to reimbursement directly from the Trustee, then the Master Servicer shall not reimburse itself therefor under Section 3.05(a)(ii), Section 3.05(a)(iii) or Section 3.05(a)(v) prior to the remittance to the Trust Fund, but instead the Master Servicer shall include such amounts in the applicable remittance to the Trustee made pursuant to Section 3.04(g) to the extent of amounts on deposit in the Collection Account on the related Master Servicer Remittance Date. The Trustee is hereby authorized to pay to the Advancing Person reimbursements for Advances and Servicing Advances from the Distribution Account, to the extent permitted under the terms of the Advance Facility,  to the same extent the Master Servicer would have been permitted to reimburse itself for
such Advances and/or Servicing Advances in accordance with Section 3.05(a)(ii), Section 3.05(a)(iii) or Section 3.05(a)(v), as the case may be, had the Master Servicer itself funded 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 Advance Facility agree to in writing delivered to the Trustee. An Advance Facility may provide that the Master Servicer will otherwise cause the remittance of Advance and/or Servicing Advance reimbursement amounts to the Advancing Person, in which case the foregoing sentences in this Section 3.23(b) shall not apply.

(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.

(d)        In the event the Master Servicer is terminated pursuant to Section 7.01, the Advancing Person shall succeed to the terminated Master Servicer’s right of reimbursement set forth in Section 7.02(c) to the extent of such Advancing Person’s financing of or receipt of assignment or pledge of the right to be reimbursed for Advances or Servicing Advances hereunder then remaining unreimbursed.

(e)        None of the Trust Fund, any party to this Agreement or any other Person shall have any right or claim (including without limitation any right of offset or recoupment) to any amounts allocable under this Agreement to the reimbursement of Advances or Servicing Advances that have been assigned, conveyed or pledged to an Advancing Person, or that relate to Advances or Servicing Advances that were funded by an Advancing Person.

(f)         Any amendment to this Section 3.23 or to any other provision of this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an Advance Facility as described generally in this Section 3.23, including amendments to add provisions relating to a successor master servicer, may be entered into by the Trustee and the Master Servicer without the consent of any Certificateholder but with the consent of the NIMS Insurer and written confirmation from each Rating Agency that the amendment shall not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the then-current ratings of any outstanding Class of Certificates or any other notes secured by collateral which includes all or a portion of the Class CE Certificates, the Class P 

 

Certificates and/or the Residual Certificates, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement.

            SECTION 4.01.
 	
            Distributions.
 

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

With respect to the Group I Mortgage Loans:

(1)        to Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I, and each of REMIC I Regular Interest I-1-A through I-52-B, pro rata, in an amount equal to (A) Uncertificated Interest for such REMIC I Regular Interests for such Distribution Date, plus (B) any amounts payable in respect thereof remaining unpaid from previous Distribution Dates.

(2)        to the extent of amounts remaining after the distributions made pursuant to clause (i) above, payments of principal shall be allocated as follows: first, to REMIC I Regular interests I-1-A through I-52-B starting with the lowest numerical denomination until the Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC I Regular Interest is reduced to zero, provided that, for REMIC I Regular Interests with the same numerical denomination, such payments of principal shall be allocated pro rata between such REMIC I Regular Interests, and second, to the extent of the product of (a) any Overcollateralization Reduction Amounts multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Group I Mortgage Loans and the denominator of which is the
aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans, to REMIC I Regular Interest I until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC I Regular Interest is reduced to zero; and

(3)        to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest (A) all amounts representing Prepayment Charges in respect of the Mortgage Loans received during the related Prepayment Period and (B) on the Distribution Date immediately following the expiration of the latest Prepayment Charge as identified on the Prepayment Charge Schedule or any Distribution Date thereafter until $100 has been distributed pursuant to this clause. 

With respect to the Group II Mortgage Loans:

(1)        to Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I and each of REMIC I Regular Interest II-1-A through II-52-B, pro rata, in an amount equal to (A) Uncertificated Interest for such REMIC I Regular Interests for such Distribution Date, plus (B) any amounts payable in respect thereof remaining unpaid from previous Distribution Dates.

to the extent of amounts remaining after the distributions made pursuant to clause (i) above, payments of principal shall be allocated as follows: first, to REMIC I Regular 

 

interests II-1-A through II-52-B starting with the lowest numerical denomination until the Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC I Regular Interest is reduced to zero, provided that, for REMIC I Regular Interests with the same numerical denomination, such payments of principal shall be allocated pro rata between such REMIC I Regular Interests, and second, to the extent of the product of (a) any Overcollateralization Reduction Amounts multiplied by (b) a fraction, the numerator of which is the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Group I Mortgage Loans and the denominator of which is the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans, to REMIC I Regular Interest I until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC I Regular Interest is reduced to zero.

On each Distribution Date, all amounts representing Prepayment Charges in respect of the Mortgage Loans received during the related Prepayment Period shall be distributed by REMIC I to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I. The payment of the foregoing amounts to the Holders of REMIC I Regular Interest I shall not reduce the Uncertificated Balance thereof.

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

Amounts payable as Uncertificated Interest in respect of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ shall be reduced and deferred when the REMIC II Overcollateralized Amount is less than the REMIC II Overcollateralization Target Amount, by the lesser of (x) the amount of such difference and (y) the Maximum II-LTZZ Uncertificated Interest Deferral Amount and such amount shall be payable to the Holders of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTA1A, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTA1B, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTA2, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM1, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM2, REMIC II Regular

II Regular Interest II-LTM11 in the same proportion as the Overcollateralization Increase Amount is allocated to the Corresponding Certificates and the Uncertificated Principal Balance of the REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ shall be increased by such amount;

(iii)        to the extent of the REMIC II Sub WAC Allocation Percentage of the Interest Funds remaining after the distribution pursuant to clause (i)(A) and (B), to the Holders of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT1SUB, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT1GRP, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT2SUB, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT2GRP and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTXX, pro rata, in an amount equal to (A) the Uncertificated Interest for such Distribution Date, plus (B) any amounts in respect thereof remaining unpaid from previous Distribution Dates;

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

(b)        2.00% of such remainder (other than amounts payable under clause (c) below) first, to the Holders of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTA1A, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTA1B, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTA2, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM1, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM2, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM3, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM4, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM5, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM6, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM7, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM8, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM9, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM10 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM11, 1.00% and in the same proportion as principal payments are allocated to the Corresponding Certificates, until the Uncertificated Balances of such REMIC II Regular Interests are reduced to zero and second, to the Holders of REMIC II
Regular Interest II-LTZZ, until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC II Regular Interest is reduced to zero; and

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

provided, however, that (i) 98.00% and (ii) 2.00% of any principal payments that are attributable to an Overcollateralization Reduction Amount shall be allocated to the Holders of (i) REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTP, in that order and (ii) REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, respectively; provided that REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTP shall not 

 

be reduced until the Distribution Date immediately following the expiration of the latest Prepayment Charge as identified on the Prepayment Charge Schedule or any Distribution Date thereafter, at which point such amount shall be distributed to REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTP, until $100 has been distributed pursuant to this clause; and

 

(v)        to the Holders of REMIC II Regular Interests, in an amount equal to the remainder of the REMIC II Sub WAC Allocation Percentage of the REMIC Available Funds for such Distribution Date after the distributions made pursuant to clause (i) and (ii) above such that distributions of interest are deemed to be made to REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT1SUB, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT1GRP, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT2SUB, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT2GRP and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTXX, pro rata, in an amount equal to (A) the Uncertificated Interest for each such REMIC II Regular Interest for such Distribution Date, plus (B) any amounts in respect thereof remaining unpaid from previous Distribution Dates and such that distributions of principal shall be deemed to be made to the REMIC II Regular Interests
first, so as to keep the Uncertificated Balance of each REMIC II Regular Interest ending with the designation “GRP” equal to 0.01% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group; second, to each REMIC II Regular Interest ending with the designation “SUB,” so that the Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC II Regular Interest is equal to 0.01% of the excess of (x) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group over (y) the current Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificate in the related Loan Group (except that if any such excess is a larger number than in the preceding distribution period, the least amount of principal shall be distributed to such REMIC II Regular Interests such that the REMIC II Subordinated Balance Ratio is maintained); and third, any remaining principal to REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTXX.

On each Distribution Date, amounts shall be distributed by REMIC II to REMIC III on account of the REMIC III Regular Interests and distributed to the Holders of the Class R Certificates (in respect of the Class R-III Interest) in the same manner and priority as such amounts are distributed with respect to the Corresponding Certificates.

Payments in respect of each Class of Certificates on each Distribution Date shall be made to the Holders of the respective Class of record on the related Record Date (except as otherwise provided in Section 4.01(g) 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, 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 office of the Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12 or such other location specified in the notice to  Certificateholders of such final distribution. 

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

(e)        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.

tenth, sequentially to the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5, Class M-6, Class M-7, Class M-8, Class M-9, Class M-10 and Class M-11 Certificates, in that order, in each case up to the related Allocated Realized Loss Amount related to such Certificates for such Distribution Date remaining undistributed after distribution of the Net Monthly Excess Cashflow;

(g)        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 five (5) days after the related Determination Date, mail to each Holder on such date of such Class of Certificates a notice to the effect that:

 

 

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

(ii)         no interest shall accrue on such Certificates from and after the end of the related Interest 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(g) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, directly or through an agent, mail a
final notice to remaining 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 the Underwriters all remaining 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(g).

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

(i)         It is the intention of all of the parties hereto that the Class CE Certificates receive all principal and interest received by the Trust on the Mortgage Loans that is not otherwise distributable to any other Class of Regular Certificates or REMIC Regular Interests. If the Trustee determines that the Residual Certificates are entitled to any distributions, the Trustee, prior to any such distribution to any Residual Certificate, shall notify the Depositor of such impending distribution. Upon such notification, the Depositor will request an amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to revise such mistake in the distribution provisions. The Residual Certificate Holders, by their acceptance of their Certificates, and the Master Servicer 

 

hereby agree and no further consent shall be necessary (other than the consent of the NIMS Insurer), notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 11.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

For purposes of this Section 4.02, the Trustee’s duties are limited to the extent that the Trustee receives timely reports as required from the Master Servicer.

On each Distribution Date the Trustee shall provide Bloomberg Financial Markets, L.P. (“Bloomberg”) CUSIP level factors for each Class of Certificates as of such Distribution Date, using a format and media mutually acceptable to the Trustee and Bloomberg.

	
            SECTION 4.03.
 	
            Remittance Reports and Other Reports to the Trustee; Advances; Payments in Respect of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.
 

(a)        On the Master Servicer Reporting Date, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer by telecopy (or by such other means as the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer may agree from time to time) a Remittance Report with respect to the related Distribution Date. Such Remittance Report shall include (i) the amount of Advances to be made by the Master Servicer in respect of the related Distribution Date, the aggregate amount of Advances outstanding after giving effect to such Advances, and the 

 

aggregate amount of Nonrecoverable Advances in respect of such Distribution Date and (ii) such other information with respect to the Mortgage Loans as the Trustee may reasonably require to perform the calculations necessary to make the distributions contemplated by Section 4.01 and to prepare the statements to Certificateholders contemplated by Section 4.02. The Trustee shall not be responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify any information provided to it by the Master Servicer.

Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall forward to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor a statement prepared by the Master Servicer setting forth the status of the Collection Account as of the close of business on such Distribution Date and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and withdrawals from the Collection Account of each category of deposit specified in Section 3.04(b) and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.05. 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 Stated Principal Balances of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the calendar month
immediately preceding such Distribution Date. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trustee to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Trustee as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the Master Servicer to the Trustee.

(b)        The amount of Advances to be made by the Master Servicer for any Distribution Date shall equal, subject to Section 4.03(d), the sum of (i) the aggregate amount of Monthly Payments (with each interest portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee), due on the related Due Date in respect of the Mortgage Loans, which Monthly Payments were delinquent as of the close of business on the related Determination Date and (ii) with respect to each REO Property, which REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Prepayment Period and as to which such REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the related Prepayment Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Monthly Payments (with each interest portion thereof net of the related Servicing Fee) that would have been due on the related Due Date in respect of the related
Mortgage Loans, over the net income from such REO Property transferred to the Distribution Account pursuant to Section 3.13 for distribution on such Distribution Date.

On or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Master Servicer Remittance Date, the Master Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution (in which case, it shall cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of the Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this Section 4.03, used by the Master Servicer in discharge of any such Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans
and REO Properties. Any amounts held for future distribution used by the Master Servicer to make an Advance as permitted in the preceding sentence or withdrawn by the Master Servicer as permitted in Section 3.05(a)(vii) in 

 

reimbursement of Advances previously made shall be appropriately reflected in the Master Servicer’s records and replaced by the Master Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Master Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Funds for the related Distribution Date (determined without regard to Advances to be made on the Master Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be distributed to the Classes of Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on such Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had not been so used to make Advances. The Trustee shall provide notice to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer by telecopy by the close of business on any Master Servicer Remittance Date in the event that the amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trustee on such date is less than the Advances required to
be made by the Master Servicer for the related Distribution Date.

(c)        The obligation of the Master Servicer to make such Advances is mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement but subject to (d) below, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property, shall continue until a Final Recovery Determination in connection therewith or the removal thereof from REMIC I pursuant to any applicable provision of this Agreement, except as otherwise provided in this Section.

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

(e)        The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit into the Distribution Account on or before 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Master Servicer Remittance Date from its own funds an amount (“Compensating Interest”) equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for the related Distribution Date resulting solely from Principal Prepayments during the related Prepayment Period and (ii) the amount of its aggregate Servicing Fee for the most recently ended calendar month. The Master Servicer shall not have the right to reimbursement for any amounts remitted to the Trustee in respect of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls. Such amounts so remitted shall be included in the Available Funds and distributed therewith on the next Distribution Date. The Master Servicer shall not be obligated to pay any
amounts with respect to Relief Act Interest Shortfalls.

	
            SECTION 4.04.
 	
            Allocation of Realized Losses.
 

(a)        On or before each Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall determine as to each Mortgage Loan and REO Property:  (i) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Final Recovery Determinations made during the related Prepayment Period; (ii) whether and the extent to which such Realized Losses constituted Bankruptcy Losses; and (iii) the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and allocable to principal. On or before each Determination Date, the Master Servicer shall also determine as to each Mortgage Loan:  (A) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred 

 

in connection with any Deficient Valuations made during the related Prepayment Period; and (B) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with Debt Service Reductions in respect of Monthly Payments due during the related Due Period. The information described in the two preceding sentences that is to be supplied by the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trustee by the Master Servicer on the Master Servicer Reporting Date immediately following the end of (x) in the case of Bankruptcy Losses allocable to interest, the Due Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred, and (y) in the case of all other Realized Losses, the Prepayment Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred.

(b)        All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date as follows: first, in reduction of interest accrued on and otherwise distributable to the Class CE Certificates to the extent of Net Monthly Excess Cashflow used to pay principal on the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates under clause (i) of Section 4.01 hereof; second, in reduction of interest accrued on and otherwise distributable to the Class CE Certificates to the extent of Net Monthly Excess Cashflow available for distribution pursuant to clauses (ii) through (vi) of Section 4.01(a)(4) hereof; and third, in reduction of the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class CE
Certificates (determined after taking into account all distributions made on the Certificates on such Distribution Date), until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero. If on any Distribution Date, after all distributions are made by the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof, the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificates, the Mezzanine Certificates and the Class P Certificates exceeds the sum of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the related Due Period (after taking into account prepayments during the related Prepayment Period), the amount of such excess shall be allocated: first, to the Class M-11 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 all Classes on any Distribution Date shall be so allocated after the actual distributions to be made on such date as provided above.

Any such allocation to a Class of Mezzanine Certificates on any Distribution Date shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof (after the actual distributions to be made on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.01 hereof) by the amount so allocated; any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class CE Certificate shall be made by reducing the amount otherwise payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(4)(v). No allocations 

 

of any Realized Losses shall be made to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Class A Certificates or the Class P Certificates.

As used herein, an allocation of a Realized Loss on a “pro rata basis” among two or more specified Classes of Certificates means an allocation on a pro rata basis, among the various Classes so specified, to each such Class of Certificates on the basis of their then outstanding Certificate Principal Balances prior to giving effect to distributions to be made on such Distribution Date. All Realized Losses and all other losses allocated to a Class of Certificates hereunder shall be allocated among the Certificates of such Class in proportion to the Percentage Interests evidenced thereby.

All Realized Losses on the Group I Loans shall be allocated on each Distribution Date first, to REMIC I Regular Interest I until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC I Regular Interest has been reduced to zero and second, to REMIC I Regular Interest I-1-A through REMIC I Regular Interest I-52-B, starting with the lowest numerical denomination until such REMIC I Regular Interest has been reduced to zero, provided that, for REMIC I Regular Interests with the same numerical denomination, such Realized Losses shall be allocated pro rata between such REMIC I Regular Interests. All Realized Losses on the Group II Loans shall be allocated on each Distribution Date first, to REMIC I Regular Interest II until the Uncertificated Balance of such REMIC I Regular Interest has been reduced to zero and second, to REMIC I Regular Interest II-1-A through
REMIC I Regular Interest II-52-B, starting with the lowest numerical denomination until such REMIC I Regular Interest has been reduced to zero, provided that, for REMIC I Regular Interests with the same numerical denomination, such Realized Losses shall be allocated pro rata between such REMIC I Regular Interests.

(c) (i)    The REMIC II Marker Allocation Percentage of all Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trustee on each Distribution Date to the following REMIC II Regular Interests in the specified percentages, as follows: first, to Uncertificated Interest payable to the REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC II Interest Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively; second, to the Uncertificated Balances of the REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC II Principal Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively; third, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM11 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively,
until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM10 has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM10 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM10 has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM9 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM9 has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM8 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM8 has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest
II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM7 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, 

 

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

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

All Realized Losses shall be allocated on each Distribution Date in the same manner and priority as such Realized Losses are allocated to the Corresponding Certificates.

	
            SECTION 4.05.
 	
            Compliance with Withholding Requirements.
 

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

 

 

	
            SECTION 4.06.
 	
            Commission Reporting.
 

(a)        The Trustee shall reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in connection with the Trust’s satisfying the reporting requirements under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”). The Trustee shall prepare on behalf of the Trust any Forms 8-K and 10-K customary for similar securities as required by the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Commission thereunder, and the Depositor shall sign (or shall cause another entity acceptable to the Commission to sign) and the Trustee shall file (via the Commission’s Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System) such forms on behalf of the Depositor (or such other entity). The Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a limited power of attorney to execute any Form 8-K and file each such document on behalf of the Depositor. Such power of attorney
shall continue until the earlier of (i) receipt by the Trustee from the Depositor of written termination of such power of attorney and (ii) the termination of the Trust. Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the Depositor, and not the Trustee, shall be responsible for executing each Form 10-K filed on behalf of the Trust.

(b)        Each Form 8-K shall be filed by the Trustee within 15 days after each Distribution Date, with a copy of the statement to the Certificateholders for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto. Prior to March 30th of each year (or such earlier date as may be required by the Exchange Act and the Rules and Regulations of the Commission), the Trustee shall file a Form 10-K, in substance as required by applicable law or applicable Commission staff’s interpretations. Such Form 10-K shall include as exhibits the Master Servicer’s annual statement of compliance described under Section 3.19 and the accountant’s report described under Section 3.20, in each case to the extent they have been timely delivered to the Trustee. If they are not so timely delivered, the Trustee shall file an
amended Form 10-K including such documents as exhibits reasonably promptly after they are delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee shall have no liability with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file such periodic reports resulting from or relating to the Trustee’s inability or failure to obtain any information not resulting from its own negligence or willful misconduct. The Form 10-K shall also include a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-1 (the “Certification”), which shall be signed by the senior officer of the Depositor in charge of securitization.

(c)        In addition, the Trustee shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-2) for the benefit of the Depositor and its officers, directors and Affiliates regarding certain aspects of items 1 through 3 of the Certification (provided, however, that the Trustee shall not undertake an analysis of the accountant’s report attached as an exhibit to the Form 10-K). The Trustee’s certification shall be delivered to the Depositor by no later than March 18th of each year (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day) and the Depositor shall deliver the Certification to the Trustee for filing no later than March 20th of each year (or if such day is not a Business Day, the immediately
preceding Business Day).

In addition, the Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and its officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach of the Trustee’s obligations under this Section 4.06 or the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith. The 

 

Depositor shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trustee and its officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach of the Depositor’s obligations under this Section 4.06 or the Depositor’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor or the Trustee, as applicable, then the other party, in connection with  a breach of its respective obligations under this Section 4.06 or its respective negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith, agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the other party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities
of the other party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Depositor on the one hand and the Trustee on the other.

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

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

(f)         To the extent that, following the Closing Date, the Depositor certifies that reports and certifications differing from those required under this Section 4.06 comply with the reporting requirements under the Exchange Act, the Trustee hereby agrees that it shall reasonably cooperate to amend the provisions of this Section 4.06 (in accordance with Section 11.01) in order to comply with such amended reporting requirements and such amendment of this Section 4.06. Any such amendment may result in the reduction of the reports filed by the Depositor under the Exchange Act. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall not be obligated to enter into any amendment pursuant to this Section that adversely affects its obligations and immunities under this Agreement.

            SECTION 4.10.
 	
            Swap Account
 

(a)        No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain with itself, as agent for the Trustee, a separate, segregated trust account titled, “Swap Account, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust for the Interest Rate Swap Provider  and the Group II Swap Provider and the registered holders of Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc., Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-R6.” Such account shall be an Eligible Account and amounts therein shall be held uninvested.

(b)        On each Distribution Date, prior to any distribution to any Certificate, the Trustee shall deposit into the Swap Account pursuant to 3.05(c)(i): (i) the amount of any Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment owed to the Interest Rate Swap Provider (after taking into account any upfront payment received by the Interest Rate Swap Provider or the 

 

Group II Swap Provider, as the case may be, from the counterparty to a replacement similar agreement) from funds collected and received with respect to the Mortgage Loans prior to the determination of Available Funds and (ii) amounts received by the Trustee from the Swap Administrator, for distribution in accordance with subsection (e) below, pursuant to the Swap Administration Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Swap Administration Agreement”), among Deutsche Bank National Trust Company in its capacity as Trustee, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company in its capacity as Swap Administrator and Ameriquest Mortgage Company. For federal income tax purposes, any amounts paid to the Interest Rate Swap Provider on each Distribution Date shall first be deemed paid to the Interest Rate Swap Provider in respect of the Class SWAP-IO Interest to the extent of the amount distributable on such Class
SWAP-IO Interest on such Distribution Date, and any remaining amount shall be deemed paid to the Interest Rate Swap Provider in respect of  a Class IO Distribution Amount (as defined below).

If the Trustee fails to pay any Net Swap Payment owed to the Interest Rate Swap Provider and such failure to pay is not related to insufficient funds in the Distribution Account and such failure to pay would, pursuant to the terms of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, cause a Swap Termination Payment to be owed to the Interest Rate Swap Provider, the NIMS Insurer may, on behalf of the Trustee and after consultation with the Trustee, pay such Net Swap Payment owed to the Interest Rate Swap Provider. The NIMS Insurer shall be reimbursed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05(c).

(c)        On each Distribution Date, prior to any distribution to any Certificate, the Trustee shall deposit into the Swap Account pursuant to 3.05(c)(i): (i) the Group II Swap Fee and the amount of any Swap Termination Payment owed to the Group II Swap Provider (after taking into account any upfront payment received by the Interest Rate Swap Provider or the Group II Swap Provider, as the case may be, from the counterparty to a replacement similar agreement) from funds collected and received with respect to the Group II Mortgage Loans prior to the determination of Available Funds and (ii) amounts received by the Trustee from the Swap Administrator, for distribution in accordance with subsection (e) below, pursuant to the Swap Administration Agreement.  For federal income tax purposes, any amounts paid to the Group II Swap Provider on each
Distribution Date shall first be deemed paid to REMIC VIII Regular Interest Group II SWAP-IO.

If the Trustee fails to pay any Group II Swap Fee owed to the Group II Swap Provider and such failure to pay is not related to insufficient funds in the Distribution Account and such failure to pay would, pursuant to the terms of the Group II Swap Agreement, cause a Swap Termination Payment to be owed to the Group II Swap Provider, the NIMS Insurer may, on behalf of the Trustee and after consultation with the Trustee, pay such Group II Swap Fee owed to the Group II Swap Provider. The NIMS Insurer shall be reimbursed by the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.05(c).

(d)        For federal income tax purposes, the Swap Account shall be owned by the majority Holder of the Class CE Certificates. 

(e)        The Trustee shall treat the Holders of Certificates (other than the Class P, Class CE and Class R Certificates) as having entered into a notional principal contract with 

 

respect to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates. Pursuant to each such notional principal contract, all Holders of Certificates (other than the Class P, Class CE and Class R Certificates) shall be treated as having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the Holder of the Class CE Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount payable on such Distribution Date on the REMIC IV Regular Interest corresponding to such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on such Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date (such excess, a “Class IO Distribution Amount”). A Class IO Distribution Amount 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 IO Distribution Amount payable from principal
collections shall be allocated to the most subordinate Class of Certificates with an outstanding principal balance to the extent of such balance. In addition, pursuant to such notional principal contract, the Holder of the Class CE Certificates shall be treated as having agreed to pay Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts to the Holders of the Certificates (other than the Class CE, Class P and Class R Certificates) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any payments to the Certificates from amounts deemed received in respect of this notional principal contract 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 (other than the Class CE, Class P and Class R Certificates) of a Class IO Distribution Amount shall be treated for tax purposes as having been received by the Holders of such Certificates in respect of their interests in REMIC IV and as having been paid by such Holders to
the Swap Administrator pursuant to the notional principal contract. Thus, each Certificate (other than the Class P and Class R Certificates) shall be treated as representing not only ownership of Regular Interests in REMIC IV, but also ownership of an interest in, and obligations with respect to, a notional principal contract.

	
            SECTION 4.11.
 	
            Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.
 

(a)        No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain with itself, as agent for the Trustee, a separate, segregated trust account titled, “Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee, in trust for the registered Holders of Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc., Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-R6.” The Trustee shall deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account any payments received by it pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(4)(iv).

(b)        On each Distribution Date as to which there is a Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount payable to the Class A Certificates or the Mezzanine Certificates, the Trustee has been directed by the Class CE Certificateholders to, and therefore shall, deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amount of such Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE Certificateholders. On each such Distribution Date, the Trustee shall hold all such amounts for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, and shall distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates in the amounts and priorities set forth in Section 4.01(a).

(c)        For federal and state income tax purposes, the Class CE Certificateholders shall be deemed to be the owners of the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account and all amounts deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be treated as 

 

amounts distributed by REMIC IV to the Holders of the Class CE Interest and from the Class CE Interest to the Class CE Certificates. Upon the termination of the Trust, or the payment in full of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be released by the Trust and distributed to the Class CE Certificateholders or their designees. The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be part of the Trust but not part of any REMIC and any payments to the Holders of the Class A Certificates or the Mezzanine Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts shall not be payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860(G)(a)(1).

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

(e)        At the written direction of the Holders of a majority in Percentage Interest in the Class CE Certificates, the Trustee shall direct any depository institution maintaining the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account 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 CE Certificates with respect to the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account is received by the Trustee, the Trustee shall invest the funds in the Deutsche Bank Institutional Cash Management Fund 541 so long as it is a Permitted Investment. Interest earned on such investment shall be deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.

THE CERTIFICATES

	
            SECTION 5.01.
 	
            The Certificates.
 

(a)        The Certificates in the aggregate shall represent the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other assets included in REMIC I. At the Closing Date, the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Certificates shall equal the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans.

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

Upon original issue, the Certificates shall be executed and delivered by the Trustee and the Trustee shall cause the Certificates to be authenticated by the Certificate Registrar 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 Certificate Registrar by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.

(b)        The Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates shall initially be issued as one or more Certificates held by the Book-Entry Custodian or, if appointed to hold such Certificates as provided below, the Depository, and registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and, except as provided below, registration of such Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee except to another Depository that agrees to hold such Certificates for the respective Certificate Owners with Ownership Interests therein. The Certificate Owners shall hold their respective Ownership Interests in and to such Certificates through the book-entry facilities of the Depository and, except as provided below, shall not be entitled to definitive, fully registered Certificates (“Definitive Certificates”) in respect of such Ownership Interests.
All transfers by Certificate Owners of their respective Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owner. Each Depository Participant shall only transfer the Ownership Interests in the Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository’s normal procedures. The Trustee is hereby initially appointed as the Book-Entry Custodian and hereby agrees to act as such in accordance herewith and in accordance with the agreement that it has with the Depository authorizing it to act as such. The Book-Entry Custodian may, and if it is 

 

no longer qualified to act as such, the Book-Entry Custodian shall, appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee (if the Trustee is not the Book-Entry Custodian) 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, if it so elects, the Depository shall immediately succeed to its predecessor’s duties as Book-Entry Custodian. The Depositor shall have the right to inspect, and to obtain copies of, any Certificates
held as Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian.

The Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Depositor may for all purposes (including the making of payments due on the Book-Entry Certificates) deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates for the purposes of exercising the rights of Certificateholders hereunder. The rights of Certificate Owners with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Depository Participants and brokerage firms representing such Certificate Owners. Multiple requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Book-Entry Certificates with respect to any particular matter shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners. The Trustee may establish a reasonable record date in
connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Certificateholders and shall give notice to the Depository of such record date.

If (i)(A) the Depositor advises the Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities as Depository, and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) after the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default, Certificate Owners representing in the aggregate not less than 51% of the Ownership Interests of the Book-Entry Certificates advise the Trustee through the Depository, in writing, that the continuation of a book-entry system through the Depository is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners, the Trustee shall notify all Certificate Owners, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Trustee of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Book-Entry Custodian or the
Depository, as applicable, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration of transfer, the Trustee shall issue the Definitive Certificates. Such Definitive Certificates shall be issued in minimum denominations of $25,000 in the case of the Group I Certificates, $100,000 in the case of the Group II and Mezzanine Certificates (other than the Private Mezzanine Certificates) and $50,000 in the case of the Private Mezzanine Certificates, except that any beneficial ownership that was represented by a Book-Entry Certificate in an amount less than $25,000 immediately prior to the issuance of a Definitive Certificate shall be issued in a minimum denomination equal to the amount represented by such Book-Entry Certificate. None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in the delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive
Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trustee, to the extent 

 

applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates, and the Trustee shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.

	
            SECTION 5.02.
 	
            Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.
 

(a)        The Trustee shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be appointed by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.12 a Certificate Register for the Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Trustee shall initially serve as Certificate Registrar for the purpose of registering Certificates and transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. The Certificate Registrar may appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Master Servicer and the Depositor, any other bank or trust company to act as Certificate Registrar under such conditions as the predecessor Certificate Registrar may prescribe, provided that the predecessor
Certificate Registrar shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities hereunder by reason of such appointment. If the Trustee shall at any time not be the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee shall have and maintain the right to inspect the Certificate Register or to obtain a copy thereof at all reasonable times, and to rely conclusively upon a certificate of the Certificate Registrar as to the information set forth in the Certificate Register.

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

 

an affiliate of the Depositor), then the Certificate Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certificate from the Certificateholder desiring to effect such transfer and a certificate from such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee (which in the case of the Book-Entry Certificates, the Certificateholder and the Certificateholder’s prospective transferee shall be deemed to have represented such certification), to the effect that, among other things, the transfer is being made to a qualified institutional buyer as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act in accordance with Rule 144A. Any Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer of a Private Mezzanine Certificate, Class CE Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the
Certificate Registrar and the Master Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no certification or Opinion of Counsel described in this Section 5.02(b) shall be required in connection with the transfer, on the Closing Date, of any Class R Certificate by the Depositor to an “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(d) of the 1933 Act.

(c)        No transfer of a 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”), as certified by such transferee in the form of Exhibit G (or, in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate, such transferee shall be deemed to represent that it is not a Plan or acquiring with Plan Assets), unless the Trustee is provided with an Opinion of Counsel for the benefit of the Trust Fund, the Depositor, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer and on which they may rely, which shall be to the effect that the purchase and
holding of such Certificates is permissible under applicable law, shall not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and shall not subject the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund. Neither an Opinion of Counsel nor any certification shall be required in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) the transfer of any such Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee
under the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor (in which case such transferee shall be deemed to have represented that it is not purchasing with 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 such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.

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 shall be treated as the beneficial owner of that Certificate retroactive to the date of transfer to the purported beneficial owner. Any purported beneficial owner whose acquisition or holding of any 

 

such Certificate or interest therein was effected in violation of the provisions of the preceding paragraph shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, and the Trust Fund from and against any and all liabilities, claims, costs or expenses incurred by those parties as a result of that acquisition or holding.

(d)         (i)  Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably authorized the Certificate Registrar or its designee under clause (iii)(A) below to deliver payments to a Person other than such Person and to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (iii)(B) below and to execute all instruments of Transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale. The rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:

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

(B)        In connection with any proposed Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Certificate Registrar shall require delivery to it and shall not register the Transfer of any Residual Certificate until its receipt of an affidavit and agreement (a “Transfer Affidavit and Agreement”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2 from the proposed Transferee, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, representing and warranting, among other things, that such Transferee is a Permitted Transferee, that it is not acquiring its Ownership Interest in the Residual Certificate that is the subject of the proposed Transfer as a nominee, trustee or agent for any Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, that for so long as it retains its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate,
it shall endeavor to remain a Permitted Transferee, and that it has reviewed the provisions of this Section 5.02(d) and agrees to be bound by them.

(C)       Notwithstanding the delivery of a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement by a proposed Transferee under clause (B) above, if a Responsible Officer of the Certificate Registrar who is assigned to this transaction has actual knowledge that the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee, no Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to such proposed Transferee shall be effected.

(D)       Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (x) to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate and (y) not to transfer its Ownership Interest unless it provides a Transferor Affidavit (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-2), to the Certificate Registrar stating that, among other things, it has no actual knowledge that such other Person is not a Permitted Transferee.

(E)        Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the Certificate Registrar written notice that it is a “pass-through interest holder” within the 

 

meaning of temporary Treasury regulation Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, if it is, or is holding an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a “pass-through interest holder.”

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

(iii)(A)   If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 5.02(d), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The Certificate Registrar shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02(d) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement.

(B)        If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02(d) and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of the rights of the Holder of such Residual Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the Certificate Registrar shall have the right, without notice to the Holder or any prior Holder of such Residual Certificate, to sell such Residual Certificate to a purchaser selected by the Certificate Registrar on such terms as the Certificate Registrar may choose. Such purported Transferee shall promptly endorse and deliver each Residual Certificate in accordance with the instructions of the Certificate Registrar. Such purchaser may be the Certificate Registrar itself or any Affiliate of the
Certificate Registrar. The proceeds of such sale, net of the commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Certificate Registrar or its Affiliates), expenses and taxes due, if any, shall be remitted by the Certificate Registrar to such purported Transferee. The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (iii)(B) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Certificate Registrar, and the Certificate Registrar shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.

(iv)        The Trustee shall make available to the Internal Revenue Service and those Persons specified by the REMIC Provisions all information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, including the information described in Treasury regulations sections 1.860D-1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5) with respect to the “excess inclusions” of such Residual Certificate and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common trust fund, partnership, trust, estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate having as 

 

among its record Holders at any time any Person which is a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be accepted by the Trustee.

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

(A)       written notification from each Rating Agency to the effect that the modification, addition to or elimination of such provisions shall not cause such Rating Agency to downgrade its then-current ratings of any Class of Certificates; and

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

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

(e)        Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the Trustee maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.12, the Trustee shall execute and the Certificate Registrar shall 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 and cause the Certificate Registrar to 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 and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. In addition, (i) with respect to each Class R Certificate, the Holder thereof may exchange, in the manner described above, the Class R Certificate for four separate Certificates, each representing such Holder’s respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-I Interest, the Class R-II Interest, the Class R-III Interest and the Class R-IV Interest, respectively, in each case that was evidenced by the Class R Certificate being exchanged and (ii) with respect to each Class R-X Certificate, the Holder thereof may exchange, in the manner described above, the Class R-X Certificate for four separate Certificates, each representing such Holder’s respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-V Interest, the Class R-VI Interest, the Class R-VII Interest and the Class R-VIII Interest, respectively, in each case that was evidenced by the Class R-X Certificate being exchanged.

 

 

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

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

(i)         The Trustee shall cause the Certificate Registrar (unless the Trustee is acting as Certificate Registrar) to provide notice to the Trustee of each transfer of a Certificate and to provide the Trustee with an updated copy of the Certificate Register on the first Business Day in  March and August of each year, commencing in March 2006.

(j)         Any attempted or purported transfer of any Certificate in violation of the provisions of Section 5.02(c) hereof shall be void ab initio and such Certificate shall be considered to have been held continuously by the prior permitted Holder.

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

If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar, or the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar receive evidence to their satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of actual knowledge by the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser or the Trustee shall execute and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of the same Class and of like denomination and Percentage Interest. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover
any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the applicable REMIC created hereunder, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

	
            SECTION 5.04.
 	
            Persons Deemed Owners.
 

The Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Certificate Registrar and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 4.01 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the NIMS Insurer or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

	
            SECTION 5.05.
 	
            Certain Available Information.
 

On or prior to the date of the first sale of any Private Mezzanine Certificate, Class CE Certificate, Class P Certificate or Residual Certificate to an Independent third party, the 

 

Depositor shall provide to the Trustee ten copies of any private placement memorandum or other disclosure document used by the Depositor in connection with the offer and sale of the Private Mezzanine Certificates, the Class CE Certificates, the Class P Certificates or the Residual Certificates. In addition, if any such private placement memorandum or disclosure document is revised, amended or supplemented at any time following the delivery thereof to the Trustee, the Depositor promptly shall inform the Trustee of such event and shall deliver to the Trustee ten copies of the private placement memorandum or disclosure document, as revised, amended or supplemented. The Trustee shall maintain at its Corporate Trust Office and shall make available free of charge during normal business hours for review by any Holder of a Certificate and/or Certificate Owner or any Person identified to the Trustee as a
prospective transferee of a Certificate, originals or copies of the following items:  (i) in the case of a Holder, Certificate Owner or prospective transferee of a Private Mezzanine Certificate, a  Class CE Certificate, a Class P Certificate or a Residual Certificate, the private placement memorandum or other disclosure document relating to such Certificate, if any, in the form most recently provided to the Trustee; and (ii) in all cases, (A) this Agreement and any amendments hereof entered into pursuant to Section 11.01, (B) all monthly statements required to be delivered to Certificateholders of the relevant Class pursuant to Section 4.02 since the Closing Date, and all other notices, reports, statements and written communications delivered to the Certificateholders of the relevant Class pursuant to this Agreement since the Closing Date, (C) all certifications delivered by a Responsible Officer of the Trustee since the Closing Date pursuant to Section 10.01(h), (D) any and all
Officers’ Certificates delivered to the Trustee by the  Master Servicer since the Closing Date to evidence the Master Servicer’s determination that any Advance or Servicing Advance was, or if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively, and (E) any and all Officers’ Certificates delivered to the Trustee by the Master Servicer since the Closing Date pursuant to Section 4.04(a). Copies and mailing of any and all of the foregoing items shall be available from the Trustee upon request at the expense of the person requesting the same.

THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER

	
            SECTION 6.01.
 	
            Liability of the Depositor and the Master Servicer.
 

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

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

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

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

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

None of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the Master Servicer 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 NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee 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 NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, or the Master Servicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense relating to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or, in the case of the Depositor and the Master Servicer, 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. None of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Master Servicer shall be under any
obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties under this Agreement and, in its opinion, does not involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that each of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, unless the Depositor or the Master Servicer acts without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights (which consent shall not be necessary in the case of litigation or other legal action by either to enforce their respective rights or defend themselves hereunder), the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful
misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder) shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account as and to the extent provided in Section 3.05, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account.

	
            SECTION 6.04.
 	
            Limitation on Resignation of the Master Servicer.
 

The Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except (i) upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or (ii) with the written consent of the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and written confirmation from each Rating Agency (which confirmation shall be furnished to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee) that such resignation shall not cause such Rating Agency to reduce the then current rating of the Class A Certificates or the Mezzanine Certificates. Any such determination pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence, permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer, shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Master Servicer and delivered to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer. No resignation of the Master Servicer shall become effective until the
Trustee or a successor servicer acceptable to the NIMS Insurer shall have assumed the Master Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, 

 

liabilities (other than those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations under this Agreement.

Except as expressly provided herein, the Master Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, nor delegate to or subcontract with, nor authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Master Servicer hereunder. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Master Servicer are transferred to a successor master servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Master Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor master servicer.

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

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

	
            SECTION 6.06.
 	
            Sub-Servicing Agreements Between the Master Servicer and Sub-Servicers.
 

(a)        The Master Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements (provided that such agreements would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrade by any Rating Agency of the ratings on any Class of Certificates and the NIMS Insurer shall have consented to such Sub-

 

Servicing Agreement) with Sub-Servicers, for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans.

Each Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Sub-Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing Agreement, (ii) an institution approved as a mortgage loan originator by the Federal Housing Administration or an institution the deposit accounts in which are insured by the FDIC and (iii) a Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae approved mortgage servicer. Each Sub-Servicing Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 6.11 and provide for servicing of the Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall examine each Sub-Servicing Agreement and shall be familiar with the terms thereof. The terms of any
Sub-Servicing Agreement shall not be inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer and the Sub-Servicers may enter into and make amendments to the Sub-Servicing Agreements or enter into different forms of Sub-Servicing Agreements; provided, however, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any variation without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights from the provisions set forth in Section 6.11, provisions relating to insurance in Section 3.10 or priority requirements of Sub-Servicing Accounts, or credits and charges to the Sub-Servicing Accounts or the
timing and amount of remittances by the Sub-Servicers to the Master Servicer, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Master Servicer’s execution and delivery of such instruments.

(b)        As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Master Servicer (except as otherwise provided in the last sentence of this paragraph), for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement and 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 a Mortgage Loan on account of missing or defective documentation or on account of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant, as described in Section 2.03(a). Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements, and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be
in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement, to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed. Enforcement of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement against the Seller shall be effected by the Master Servicer to the extent it is 

 

not the Seller, and otherwise by the Trustee, in accordance with the foregoing provisions of this paragraph.

	
            SECTION 6.07.
 	
            Successor Sub-Servicers.
 

The Master Servicer, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, shall be entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement and the rights and obligations of any Sub-Servicer pursuant to any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Sub-Servicing Agreement. In the event of termination of any Sub-Servicer, all servicing obligations of such Sub-Servicer shall be assumed simultaneously by the Master Servicer without any act or deed on the part of such Sub-Servicer or the Master Servicer, and the Master Servicer either shall service directly the related Mortgage Loans or shall enter into a Sub-Servicing Agreement with a successor Sub-Servicer which qualifies under Section 6.06.

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, in the event that the Master Servicer shall, for any reason, no longer be the Master Servicer (including termination due to a Master Servicer Event of Default).

	
            SECTION 6.08.
 	
            Liability of the Master Servicer.
 

Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Master Servicer and a Sub-Servicer or reference to actions taken through a Sub-Servicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Sub-Servicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Sub-Servicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Master Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a Sub-Servicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer by such
Sub-Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

	
            SECTION 6.09.
 	
            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 Sub-Servicer and the Master Servicer alone, and the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Sub-Servicer except as set forth in Section 6.10. The Master Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Sub-Servicer, irrespective of whether the Master Servicer’s compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.

 

 

	
            SECTION 6.10.
 	
            Assumption or Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements by Trustee.
 

In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the master servicer (including termination due to a Master Servicer Event of Default), the Trustee or its designee shall thereupon assume (or cause its designee or the successor master servicer for the Trustee appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 to assume) all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under each Sub-Servicing Agreement that the Master Servicer may have entered into, unless the Trustee elects to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with its terms as provided in Section 6.07. 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 6.07, to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the Master Servicer as a party to each Sub-Servicing
Agreement to the same extent as if each Sub-Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that (i) the Master Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under any Sub-Servicing Agreement and (ii) none of the Trustee, its designee or any successor Master Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed any liability or obligation of the Master Servicer that arose before it ceased to be the Master Servicer.

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

	
            SECTION 6.11.
 	
            Sub-Servicing Accounts.
 

In those cases where a Sub-Servicer is servicing a Mortgage Loan pursuant to a Sub-Servicing Agreement, the Sub-Servicer shall be required to establish and maintain one or more accounts (collectively, the “Sub-Servicing Account”). The Sub-Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Sub-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 Sub-Servicer’s receipt thereof, all proceeds of Mortgage Loans received by the Sub-Servicer less its servicing compensation to the extent permitted by the Sub-Servicing Agreement, and shall thereafter deposit such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account, in no event more than two Business Days
after the deposit of such funds into the clearing account. The Sub-Servicer shall thereafter deposit such proceeds in the Collection Account or remit such proceeds to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account not later than two Business Days after the deposit of such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account. For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on the Mortgage Loans when the Sub-Servicer receives such payments.

DEFAULT

	
            SECTION 7.01.
 	
            Master Servicer Events of Default.
 

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

(i)         any failure by the Master 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 Master Servicer Remittance Date pursuant to Section 4.03) required to be made under the terms of the Certificates and this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee (in which case notice shall be provided by telecopy), or to the Master 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 Master Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Master Servicer contained in the Certificates or in this Agreement (or, if the Master Servicer is the Seller, the failure of the Seller to repurchase a Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has been established that requires a repurchase pursuant to the terms of Section 7 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement) which continues unremedied for a period of 45 days after the earlier of (i) the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Depositor or the Trustee, or to the Master Servicer, the Depositor and the Trustee by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to
at least 25% of the Voting Rights and (ii) actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Officer of the Master 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 Master Servicer and if such proceeding is being contested by the Master 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 Master 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 the Master Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

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

 

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

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

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

If a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (vi) of this Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Master Servicer Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee may, at the written direction of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights, or at the direction of the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer and the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer in its capacity as  Master Servicer under this Agreement, to the extent permitted by law, and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. If a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clause (vii) hereof shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer and the Depositor, terminate all of the
rights and obligations of the Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof and the Trustee as successor Master Servicer or a successor Master Servicer appointed in accordance with Section 7.02, shall immediately make such Advance(which Advance shall be part of Available Funds for such Distribution Date) and assume, pursuant to Section 7.02, the duties of a successor Master Servicer. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to and under this Section and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to execute and deliver on behalf of and at the expense of the Master Servicer, any
and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer agrees, at its sole cost and expense, promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to such notice) to provide the Trustee with all documents and records requested by it to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s functions under this Agreement, and to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s responsibilities and rights under this Agreement, including, without limitation, the transfer within one Business Day to the Trustee for administration by it of all cash amounts which at the time shall be or should have been credited by the Master Servicer to the Collection Account held by or on behalf of the Master
Servicer, the Distribution Account or any REO Account or Escrow Account held by or on behalf of the Master Servicer or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property serviced by the Master Servicer (provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall continue to be entitled to receive all amounts accrued or owing to it under this Agreement on or prior to the date of such termination, whether in respect of Advances or otherwise, and shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03, notwithstanding 

 

any such termination, with respect to events occurring prior to such termination). For purposes of this Section 7.01, the Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Master Servicer Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee assigned to and working in the Trustee’s Corporate Trust Office has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice is received by the Trustee of any such event and such notice references the Certificates, REMIC I or this Agreement.

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

	
            SECTION 7.02.
 	
            Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.
 

(a)        On and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination, the Trustee shall be the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Master Servicer  (except for any representations or warranties of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Section 2.03(c) and its obligation to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant to Section 3.06) by the terms and provisions hereof including, without limitation, the Master Servicer’s obligations to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.03; 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 4.03; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Master Servicer’s failure to provide information required by Section 7.01 shall not be considered a default by the Trustee as successor to the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties that there shall be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the servicing transfer is fully effected. As compensation therefor, effective from and after the time the Master Servicer receives a notice of termination or immediately upon assumption of the obligations to make Advances, the Trustee shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled if it had continued
to act hereunder (other than amounts which were due or would become due to the Master Servicer prior to its termination or resignation). Notwithstanding the above and subject to the next paragraph, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or if it is prohibited by law from making advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans, or if the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights or the NIMS Insurer so request in writing to the Trustee promptly appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an established mortgage loan servicing institution acceptable to each Rating Agency (with confirmation from the Rating Agencies that such appointment shall not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates) and acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 as the successor to the Master Servicer under this Agreement in the
assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, 

 

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

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

(b)        If the Master Servicer fails to remit to the Trustee for distribution to the Certificateholders any payment required to be made under the terms of the Certificates and this Agreement (for purposes of this Section 7.02(b), a “Remittance”) because the Master Servicer is the subject of a proceeding under the federal Bankruptcy Code and the making of such Remittance is prohibited by Section 362 of the federal Bankruptcy Code, the Trustee shall upon notice of such prohibition, regardless of whether it has received a notice of termination under Section 7.01, advance the amount of such Remittance by depositing such amount in the Distribution Account on the related Distribution Date. The Trustee shall be obligated to make such advance only if (i) such advance, in the good faith judgment of the Trustee can reasonably be expected to be
ultimately recoverable from Stayed Funds and (ii) the Trustee is not prohibited by law from making such advance or obligating itself to do so. Upon remittance of the Stayed Funds to the Trustee or the deposit thereof in the Distribution Account by the Master Servicer, a trustee in bankruptcy or a federal bankruptcy court, the Trustee may recover the amount so advanced, without interest, by withdrawing such amount from the Distribution Account; 

 

however, nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to affect the Trustee’s rights to recover from the Master Servicer’s own funds interest on the amount of any such advance. If the Trustee at any time makes an advance under this Subsection which it later determines in its good faith judgment shall 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.

(c)        If the Master Servicer is terminated pursuant to Section 7.01, then the successor Master Servicer shall not be permitted to reimburse itself directly for Advances or Servicing Advances under Section 3.05(a)(ii), Section 3.05(a)(iii), Section 3.05(a)(v) or Section 3.05(a)(vii) if the Master Servicer has not been fully reimbursed for its Advances and Servicing Advances, but instead the successor Master Servicer shall include such amounts in the applicable remittance to the Trustee made pursuant to Section 3.04(g) to the extent of amounts on deposit in the Collection Account on the related Master Servicer Remittance Date. The Trustee is hereby authorized to pay to the terminated Master Servicer (or the related Advancing Person in accordance with Section 3.23) and the successor Master Servicer, as applicable, reimbursements for Advances and
Servicing Advances from the Distribution Account to the same extent each such Master Servicer would have been permitted to reimburse itself for such Advances and/or Servicing Advances in accordance with Section 3.05(a)(ii), Section 3.05(a)(iii), Section 3.05(a)(v) or Section 3.05(a)(vii), as the case may be. 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. At such time as the Master Servicer (or related Advancing Person) has been reimbursed for all Advances and Servicing Advances made by it, the successor Master Servicer shall no longer be required to remit in accordance with the first sentence of this Section 7.02(c) and shall then be permitted to reimburse itself directly for Advances and Servicing Advances in accordance with Section 3.05(a)(ii), Section 3.05(a)(iii), Section 3.05(a)(v) or Section 3.05(a)(vii).

	
            SECTION 7.03.
 	
            Notification to Certificateholders.
 

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

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

	
            SECTION 7.04.
 	
            Waiver of Master Servicer Events of Default.
 

The Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights (with the consent of the NIMS Insurer) evidenced by all Classes of Certificates affected by any default or Master Servicer Event of Default hereunder may waive such default or Master Servicer Event of 

 

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

 

 

ARTICLE VIII

 

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE

	
            SECTION 8.01.
 	
            Duties of Trustee.
 

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

The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee which are specifically required to be furnished pursuant to any provision of this Agreement, shall examine them to determine whether they conform on their face to the requirements of this Agreement. If any such instrument is found not to conform on its face 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 its respective satisfaction, such dissatisfied party shall provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders and the NIMS Insurer.

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

(i)         Prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default, and after the curing of all such Master Servicer Events of Default which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and, in the absence of bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates or opinions furnished to the Trustee that conform to the requirements of this Agreement;

(ii)         The Trustee shall not be personally liable for an error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer or Responsible Officers of the Trustee unless it shall be proved that the Trustee was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii)        The Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the 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 the Trustee or exercising any trust or power conferred upon it, under this Agreement.

 

 

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

	
            SECTION 8.02.
 	
            Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee.
 
	
            (a)
 	
            Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:
 	
             

				

(i)         The Trustee may request and rely upon and shall be protected in acting or refraining from acting upon any resolution, Officers’ Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document reasonably believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties;

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

(iii)        The Trustee shall not 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 Certificateholders or the NIMS Insurer, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such Certificateholders or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, shall have offered to the Trustee security or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default (which has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and
to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs;

(iv)        The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement;

(v)        Prior to the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default hereunder and after the curing of all Master Servicer Events of Default which may have occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing to do so by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting 

 

Rights; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee  not reasonably assured to the Trustee by such Certificateholders, the Trustee may require reasonable indemnity against such expense, or liability from such Certificateholders or the NIMS Insurer as a condition to taking any such action;

(vi)        The Trustee may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys; and

(vii)       The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any loss resulting from the investment of funds held in the Collection Account, the Escrow Account or the REO Account made at the direction of the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.06.

(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 the name of the Trustee for the benefit of all the Holders of such Certificates, subject to the provisions of this Agreement.

(c)        The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Swap Agreements and to assign any rights to receive payments from the Interest Rate Swap Provider pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement or the Group II Swap Provider pursuant to the Group II Swap Agreement to the Swap Administrator pursuant to the Swap Administration Agreement and the Depositor further directs the Trustee to execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Swap Administration Agreement. The Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Holders of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates by their acceptance of such Certificates acknowledge and agree that the Trustee shall execute, deliver and perform its obligations under the Swap Agreements and the Swap Administration Agreement and shall do so
solely in its capacity as Trustee of the Trust Fund or as Swap Administrator, as the case may be, and not in its individual capacity. Every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Trustee shall apply to the Trustee’s execution of the Swap Agreements and the Swap Administration Agreement, and the performance of its duties and satisfaction of its obligations thereunder.

	
            SECTION 8.03.
 	
            The Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.
 

The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature of the Trustee, the authentication of the Certificate Registrar on the Certificates, the acknowledgments of the Trustee contained in Article II and the representations and warranties of the Trustee in Section 8.13) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for their correctness. The Trustee makes no representations or warranties as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement (other than as specifically set forth with respect to such party in Section 8.13) or of the Certificates (other than the signature of the Trustee and authentication of the Certificate Registrar on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application by the 

 

Depositor of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Master Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Master Servicer, other than, subject to Section 8.01, any funds held by or on behalf of the Trustee in accordance with Section 3.04.

	
            SECTION 8.04.
 	
            Trustee May Own Certificates.
 

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

	
            SECTION 8.05.
 	
            Trustee’s Fees and Expenses.
 

(a)        The Trustee shall withdraw from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date and pay to itself the Trustee Fee and, to the extent that the funds therein are at any time insufficient for such purpose, the Depositor shall pay such fees. The Trustee, or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee shall be indemnified by REMIC I and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (not including expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee (including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel) in the ordinary course of the Trustee’s performance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) incurred by the Trustee in connection with any claim or legal action or any pending or threatened claim or legal action arising out of or in connection with the
acceptance or administration of its obligations and duties under this Agreement (up to a limit of $600,000 per calendar year so long as any notes issued pursuant to the Indenture are insured by a NIMS Insurer), other than any loss, liability or expense (i) resulting from a breach of the Master Servicer’s obligations and duties under this Agreement and the Mortgage Loans (for which the Master Servicer shall indemnify pursuant to Section 8.05(b)), (ii) that constitutes a specific liability of the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01(c) or (iii) any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of its duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of its obligations and duties hereunder or as a result of a breach of its obligations under Article X hereof. Any amounts payable to the Trustee, or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee in respect of the indemnification provided by this paragraph
(a), or pursuant to any other right of reimbursement from the Trust Fund that the Trustee, or any director, officer, employee or agent of the Trustee may have hereunder in its capacity as such, may be withdrawn by the Trustee from the Distribution Account at any time.

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

(c)        The Master Servicer shall pay any annual rating agency fees of the Rating Agencies for ongoing surveillance from its own funds without right of reimbursement.

 

 

	
            SECTION 8.06.
 	
            Eligibility Requirements for Trustee.
 

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

	
            SECTION 8.07.
 	
            Resignation and Removal of the Trustee.
 

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

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

The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights (or the NIMS Insurer upon failure of the Trustee to perform its obligations hereunder) may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee acceptable to the NIMS Insurer by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee  so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Master Servicer by the Depositor.

 

 

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

	
            SECTION 8.08.
 	
            Successor Trustee.
 

Any successor trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07 shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer and to its predecessor trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor trustee shall become effective and such successor trustee without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with the like effect as if originally named as trustee herein. The predecessor trustee shall deliver to the successor trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements, as well as all moneys, held by it hereunder (other than any Mortgage Files at the time held by a Custodian, which Custodian shall become the agent of any successor trustee hereunder), and the Depositor and the predecessor trustee
shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for more fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor trustee all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

No successor trustee shall accept appointment as provided in this Section unless at the time of such acceptance such successor trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 8.06 and the appointment of such successor trustee shall not result in a downgrading of any Class of Certificates by each Rating Agency, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency.

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

	
            SECTION 8.09.
 	
            Merger or Consolidation of Trustee.
 

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

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

Notwithstanding any other provisions hereof, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of REMIC I or property securing the same may at the time be located, the Master Servicer and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer to act as co-trustee or co-trustees, jointly with the 

 

Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of REMIC I, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity, such title to REMIC I, or any part thereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Master Servicer and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. Any such co-trustee or separate trustee shall be subject to the written approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer. If the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in case a Master Servicer Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under
Section 8.06 hereunder and no notice to the Holders of Certificates of the appointment of co-trustee(s) or separate trustee(s) shall be required under Section 8.08 hereof.

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

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

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

	
            SECTION 8.11.
 	
            Appointment of Custodians.
 

The Trustee may, with the consent of the Depositor and the Master Servicer appoint one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee, by entering into a Custodial Agreement. The appointment of any Custodian may at any time be terminated and a substitute Custodian appointed therefor upon the reasonable request of 

 

the Master Servicer to the Trustee, the consent to which shall not be unreasonably withheld. The Trustee shall pay any and all fees and expenses of any Custodian in accordance with each Custodial Agreement (provided that if expenses of the kind that would be reimbursable to the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.05 if incurred by the Trustee are incurred by the Custodian, the Trustee shall be entitled to reimbursement under Section 8.05 for such kind of expenses to the extent the Trustee has paid such expenses on behalf of the Custodian or for which the Trustee has reimbursed the Custodian). The Trustee initially appoints the Custodian as Custodian, and the Depositor and the Master Servicer consent to such appointment. 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.

	
            SECTION 8.12.
 	
            Appointment of Office or Agency.
 

The Trustee shall designate an office or agency in the City of New York where the Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange, and presented for final distribution, and where notices and demands to or upon the Trustee in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be delivered. As of the Closing Date, the Trustee designates the office of its agent located c/o DTC Transfer Agent Services, 55 Water Street, Jeanette Park Entrance, New York, New York 10041 for such purposes.

	
            SECTION 8.13.
 	
            Representations and Warranties of the Trustee.
 

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

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

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

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

(iv)        This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the other parties hereto, constitutes a valid, legal and binding obligation of it, enforceable against it in accordance with the terms hereof, subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, receivership, reorganization, moratorium and other laws affecting the 

 

enforcement of creditors’ rights generally, and (B) general principles of equity, regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law.

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

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

 

 

ARTICLE IX

 

TERMINATION

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

(a)        Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee (other than the obligations of the Master Servicer to the Trustee pursuant to Section 8.05 and of the Master Servicer to provide for and the Trustee to make payments in respect of the REMIC Regular Interests or the Classes of Certificates as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders and the deposit of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee and required hereunder to be so paid or deposited on the Distribution Date coinciding with or following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase by the Terminator (as defined below) of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with
respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC I; provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (a) the “latest possible maturity date” and (b) 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 I shall be at a price (the “Termination Price”) equal to greater of (A) the aggregate fair market value of all of the assets of REMIC I and (B) the sum of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans (after giving effect to scheduled payments of principal due during the related Due Period, to the extent received or advanced, and unscheduled collections of principal received during the related Prepayment Period) and the appraised fair market value of
the REO Properties plus accrued interest through the end of the calendar month preceding the month of the final Distribution Date and any unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances(in the case of fair market values required to be determined under (A) or (B) above, as determined by the Terminator, the Trustee and, if the Terminator is not the NIMS Insurer, the NIMS Insurer, 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); provided, however, such option may only be exercised if the Termination Price is sufficient to pay all interest accrued on, as well as amounts necessary to retire the note balance of, each class of notes issued pursuant to the Indenture and any amounts owed to the NIMS Insurer at the time the option is exercised.

(b)        The Master Servicer (or if the Master Servicer fails to exercise such right, the NIMS Insurer) shall have the right (the party exercising such right, the “Terminator”), to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph no later than the Determination Date in the month immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which the Certificates shall be retired; provided, however, that the Terminator may elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) above only (A) 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 less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the 

 

Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date and (B) if the Terminator is the Master Servicer and is an affiliate of the Seller, the Master Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer a written certification that the burdens of servicing the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties remaining in REMIC I exceed the benefits of the Servicing Fees that would be realized by the Master Servicer if it continued to service such assets on behalf of the Trust Fund. By acceptance of the Residual Certificates, the Holders of the Residual Certificates agree, in connection with any termination hereunder, to pledge any amounts in excess of par, and to the extent received in respect of such termination, to pay any such amounts to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates.

(c)        Notice of the liquidation of the REMIC 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 shall terminate and final payment in respect of the REMIC Regular Interests and the Certificates shall 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  Regular Interests or the Certificates from and after the Interest 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. The Trustee shall give such notice to the Certificate Registrar at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I by the Terminator, the Terminator shall deliver to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account not later than the last Business Day preceding the final Distribution Date on the Certificates an amount in immediately
available funds equal to the above-described purchase price. Upon certification to the Trustee by a Servicing Officer of the making of such final deposit, the Trustee shall promptly release or cause to be released to the Terminator the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans, and the Trustee shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments necessary to effectuate such transfer.

(d)        Upon presentation of the Certificates by the Certificateholders on the final Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its Certificates the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01 in respect of the Certificates so presented and surrendered. Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates being retired on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust by the Trustee and credited to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 9.01 shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time
specified in such notice, the Trustee shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, directly or 

 

through an agent, mail a final notice to remaining related non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in the trust funds. If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall pay to the Underwriters all remaining amounts, and all rights of non-tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust by the Trustee as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 9.01.

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

	
            SECTION 9.02.
 	
            Additional Termination Requirements.
 

(a)        In the event that the Terminator purchases all the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property or the final payment on or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property remaining in REMIC I pursuant to Section 9.01, the Trust Fund shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements:

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

(ii)         During such 90-day liquidation period, and at or prior to the time of making of the final payment on the Certificates, the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of REMIC I to the Terminator for cash; and

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

(b)        At the expense of the applicable Terminator (or in the event of termination under Section 9.01(a)(ii), at the expense of the Trustee), the Trustee shall prepare or cause to be prepared the documentation required in connection with the adoption of a plan of liquidation of each Trust REMIC pursuant to this Section 9.02.

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

(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 its own funds, without any right of reimbursement, any and all expenses relating to any tax audit of the Trust Fund caused by the Trustee (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), other than the expense of obtaining any tax related Opinion of Counsel except as specified herein. 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. The Holder 

 

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

(d)        The Trustee shall prepare, sign and file all of the Tax Returns in respect of each REMIC created hereunder. The expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Trustee without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Master Servicer shall provide on a timely basis to the Trustee or its designee such information with respect to the assets of the Trust Fund as is in its possession and reasonably required by the Trustee to enable it to perform its 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 other such compliance guidance, the Trustee shall provide (i) to any Transferor of a Residual Certificate such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to any Person who is not a Permitted Transferee, (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or the REMIC Provisions including reports relating to interest, original issue discount and market discount or premium (using the
Prepayment Assumption as required) and (iii) to the Internal Revenue Service the name, title, address and telephone number of the person who shall serve as the representative of each Trust REMIC. The Master Servicer shall provide on a timely basis to the Trustee such information with respect to the assets of the Trust Fund, including, without limitation, the Mortgage Loans, as is in its possession and reasonably required by the Trustee to enable each of them to perform their respective obligations under this subsection. In addition, the Depositor shall provide or cause to be provided to the Trustee within ten (10) days after the Closing Date, all information or data that the Trustee reasonably determines to be relevant for tax purposes as to the valuations and issue prices of the Certificates, including, without limitation, the price, yield, prepayment assumption and projected cash flow of the Certificates.

(f)         The Trustee shall take such action and shall cause each REMIC created hereunder to take such action as shall be necessary to create or maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions (and the Master Servicer shall assist it, to the extent reasonably requested by it). 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 as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an
“Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer 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 shall not, with respect to any Trust REMIC, endanger such status or result in the 

 

imposition of such a tax, nor shall the Master Servicer take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any Trust REMIC or the respective assets of each, or causing any Trust REMIC to take any action, which is not contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall consult with the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or its designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any Trust REMIC, and the Master Servicer shall not take any such action or cause any Trust REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer has advised it in
writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur. The Trustee or the NIMS Insurer may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take the action not permitted by this Agreement, but in no event shall such cost be an expense of the Trustee. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Master Servicer on behalf of the Trustee shall ensure that substantially all of the assets of any Trust REMIC shall 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)        In the event that any tax is imposed on “prohibited transactions” of any REMIC created hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the “net income from foreclosure property” of such REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to any such REMIC after the Startup Day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall be charged (i) to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Article X, (ii) to the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Master Servicer of any of its obligations under Article III or
this Article X, or otherwise (iii) against amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account and shall be paid by withdrawal therefrom.

(h)        On or before April 15th of each calendar year, commencing April 15, 2006, the Trustee shall deliver to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and each Rating Agency a Certificate from a Responsible Officer of the Trustee stating, without regard to any action taken by any party other than the Trustee, 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. The Trustee shall apply for an Employer Identification Number for the Trust Fund from the Internal Revenue Service via a Form SS-4 or such other form as is appropriate.

(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 shall not cause the related REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or subject such REMIC to any tax under the REMIC Provisions or other applicable provisions of federal, state and local law or ordinances.

 

 

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

	
            SECTION 10.02.
 	
            Prohibited Transactions and Activities.
 

None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall sell, dispose of or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans (except in connection with (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, including but not limited to, the acquisition or sale of a Mortgaged Property acquired by deed in lieu of foreclosure, (ii) the bankruptcy of REMIC I, (iii) the termination of REMIC I pursuant to Article IX of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a purchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II or III of this Agreement), or acquire any assets for any Trust REMIC (other than REO Property acquired in respect of a defaulted Mortgage Loan), or sell or dispose of any investments in the Collection Account or the Distribution Account for gain, or accept any contributions to any Trust REMIC after the Closing Date (other than a Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loan delivered in accordance with Section 2.03), unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer (at the expense of the party seeking to cause such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution but in no event at the expense of the Trustee) that such sale, disposition, substitution, acquisition or contribution shall 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.
 	
            Master Servicer and Trustee Indemnification.
 

(a)        The Trustee agrees to indemnify the Trust Fund, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor and the Master Servicer for any taxes and costs including, without limitation, any reasonable attorneys fees imposed on or incurred by the Trust Fund, the Depositor or the Master Servicer, caused solely by the Trustee’s failure to act in accordance with its standard of care set forth in this Article X or any state, local or franchise taxes imposed upon the Trust as a result of the location of the Trustee.

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

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.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 11.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or the Master Servicer or any Affiliate thereof shall be entitled to Voting Rights with respect to matters affecting such Certificates.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the NIMS Insurer shall consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the NIMS Insurer to the effect that such amendment shall 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.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 11.01, none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall enter into any amendment of this Agreement that would significantly change the permitted activities of the Trust Fund without the consent of the NIMS Insurer and the Holders of Certificates that represent more than 50% of the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of all Certificates.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 11.01, none of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall enter into any amendment to Section 3.05(c)(i), Section 4.01(f), Section 4.10 or Section 11.10 of this Agreement or any other amendment that would have a material adverse affect on either the Interest Rate Swap Provider or the Group II Swap Provider without the prior written consent of the Interest Rate Swap Provider and the Group II Swap Provider, as the case may be.

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

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

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

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

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

No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue of any provision of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless (i) such Holder previously shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, and (ii) the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in the name of the 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

            Grant of Security Interest.
 

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

 

Distribution Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (3) the obligations secured by such security agreement shall be deemed to be all of the Depositor’s obligations under this Agreement, including the obligation to provide to the Certificateholders the benefits of this Agreement relating to the Mortgage Loans and the Trust Fund; and (4) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Trustee for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Accordingly, the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other property described in clause (2) of the preceding
sentence, for the purpose of securing to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders 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 and the transfer pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to be a true, absolute and unconditional sale of the Mortgage Loans and assets constituting the Trust Fund by the Depositor to the Trustee.

	
            SECTION 11.10.
 	
            Third Party Rights.
 

Each of the NIMS Insurer, the Interest Rate Swap Provider and the Group II Swap Provider shall be third-party beneficiaries of this Agreement to the same extent as if they were parties hereto, and shall have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, provisions herein that refer to the “benefit” of Certificateholders or the “interests” of the Certificateholders or actions “for the benefit of” Certificateholders also include an implicit reference to the benefits or interests of the NIMS Insurer, if any.

 

 

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

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC.

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

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-1A Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class A-1A Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), the Master Servicer and  the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class A-1A Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

 

 

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

 

 

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

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

The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

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

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-1B Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class A-1B Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), the Master Servicer and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class A-1B Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.

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 evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.

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

 

governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

ASSET-BACKED PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE

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

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC.

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

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A-2 Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class A-2 Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement) and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class A-2 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula 

 

Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date only in the event of default under the Group II Swap Agreement.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

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

 

 

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

ASSET-BACKED PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE

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

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC.

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

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M-3 Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class M-3 Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement) and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class M-3 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula 

 

Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

 

 

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

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

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

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC.

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

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M-4 Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class M-4 Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement) and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class M-4 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula 

 

Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

 

 

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

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans. The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

 

 

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

 

 

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

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

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC.

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

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M-7 Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class M-7 Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), the Master Servicer and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class M-7 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register.  Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

 

 

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

 

 

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

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

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

ASSET-BACKED PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE

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

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC.

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

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M-8 Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class M-8 Certificates in a REMIC  created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), the Master Servicer and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class M-8 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

 

 

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

 

 

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

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

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class M-9 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of 

 

this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate. The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

 

 

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

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

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.

face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage 

 

Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

ASSET-BACKED PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE

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

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC.

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

This certifies that Cede & Co. is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class M-11 Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class M-11 Certificates in a REMIC  created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement), the Master Servicer and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms,
provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class M-11 Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

 

 

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

The Pass-Through Rate applicable to the calculation of interest payable with respect to this Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be the lesser of (x) the related Formula Rate for such Distribution Date and (y) the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate for such Distribution Date.  For any Distribution Date and this Certificate, the Formula Rate is One-Month LIBOR plus the Certificate Margin.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Certificate is registrable in the Certificate Register upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the offices or agencies appointed by the Trustee as provided in the Agreement, duly endorsed by, or accompanied by an assignment in the form below or other written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by, the Holder hereof or such Holder’s attorney duly authorized in writing, and thereupon one or more new Certificates of the same Class in 

 

authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

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

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification.  In the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall require receipt of written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder’s prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit F-1.  None of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the
face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.  Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Master Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

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

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage 

 

Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

ASSET-BACKED PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATE

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

AMERIQUEST MORTGAGE SECURITIES INC.

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

This certifies that Ameriquest Mortgage Company is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest (obtained by dividing the denomination of this Certificate by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class CE Certificates as of the Issue Date) in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class CE Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. (hereinafter called the “Depositor,” which term includes any successor entity under the Agreement) and the Trustee, a summary of certain of the pertinent provisions of which is set forth hereafter.  To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions
and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class CE Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

 

 

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement. As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification.  In the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder’s prospective transferee, 

 

substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in their respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder’s prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without
registration or qualification.  Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Master Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

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

To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and
conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class P Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the 

 

Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register. Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 

 

Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder’s prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the
Master Servicer in their respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder’s prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.  Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Master Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

 

 

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

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

 

 

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

Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

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

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances, without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

 

 

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

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification. In the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration or qualification, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall require receipt of (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder’s prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel
satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in their respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder’s prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based. None of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.  Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Master Servicer against
any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

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

 

 

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

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

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

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

The obligations created by the Agreement and the Trust Fund created thereby shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders of all amounts held by the Trustee and required to be paid to them pursuant to the Agreement following the earlier of (i) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in REMIC I, and (ii) the purchase by the party designated in the Agreement at a price determined as provided in the Agreement from REMIC I of all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of such Mortgage Loans.  The Agreement permits, but does not require, the party designated in the Agreement to purchase from REMIC I all the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan at a price determined as provided in the Agreement.  The exercise of such right will effect early retirement of the
Certificates; however, such right cannot be exercised until the Optional Termination Date.

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

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

 

 

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

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

This certifies that Ameriquest Mortgage Company is the registered owner of a Percentage Interest specified above in that certain beneficial ownership interest evidenced by all the Class R-X Certificates in a REMIC created pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as specified above (the “Agreement”), among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc.

To the extent not defined herein, the capitalized terms used herein have the meanings assigned in the Agreement.  This Certificate is issued under and is subject to the terms, provisions and conditions of the Agreement, to which Agreement the Holder of this Certificate by virtue of the acceptance hereof
assents and by which such Holder is bound.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25th day of each month or, if such 25th day is not a Business Day, the Business Day immediately following (a “Distribution Date”), commencing on the First Distribution Date specified above, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered on the Record Date, in an amount equal to the product of the Percentage Interest evidenced by this Certificate and the amount required to be distributed to the Holders of Class R-X Certificates on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

All distributions to the Holder of this Certificate under the Agreement will be made or caused to be made by or on behalf of the Trustee by wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account of the Person entitled thereto if such Person shall have so notified the Trustee in writing at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date immediately prior to such Distribution Date or otherwise by check mailed by first class mail to the address of the Person entitled thereto, as such name and address shall appear on the Certificate Register.  Notwithstanding the above, the final distribution on this Certificate will be made after due notice by the Trustee of the pendency of such distribution and only upon presentation and surrender of this Certificate at the office or agency appointed by the Trustee for that purpose as provided in the Agreement.

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

 

the face hereof equal to the denomination specified on the face hereof divided by the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof.

The Certificates are limited in right of payment to certain collections and recoveries respecting the Mortgage Loans, all as more specifically set forth herein and in the Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement, withdrawals from the Collection Account and the Distribution Account may be made from time to time for purposes other than distributions to Certificateholders, such purposes including reimbursement of advances made, or certain expenses incurred, with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer,(if any) and the Trustee and the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer (if any) and the Trustee with the consent of the NIMS Insurer (if any) and the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights.  Any such consent by the Holder of this Certificate shall be conclusive and binding on such Holder and upon all future Holders of this Certificate and of any Certificate issued upon the transfer hereof or in exchange herefor or in lieu hereof whether or not notation of such consent is made upon this Certificate.  The Agreement also permits the amendment thereof, in certain limited circumstances,
without the consent of the Holders of any of the Certificates.

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

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

No transfer of this Certificate shall be made unless the transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and an effective registration or qualification under applicable state securities laws, or is made in a transaction that does not require such registration or qualification (other than in connection with (i) the initial transfer of any such Certificate by the Depositor to an affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) the transfer of any such Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor).  In the event that such a transfer of this Certificate is to be made without registration or
qualification, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall require receipt of (i) if 

 

such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer, and from such Holder’s prospective transferee, substantially in the forms attached to the Agreement as Exhibit F-1, and (ii) in all other cases, an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to it that such transfer may be made without such registration or qualification (which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee or the Master Servicer in their respective capacities as such), together with copies of the written certification(s) of the Holder of the Certificate desiring to effect the transfer and/or such Holder’s prospective transferee upon which such Opinion of Counsel is based.  None of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee is obligated to register or
qualify the Class of Certificates specified on the face hereof under the 1933 Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Agreement to permit the transfer of such Certificates without registration or qualification.  Any Holder desiring to effect a transfer of this Certificate shall be required to indemnify the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Master Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

No transfer of this Certificate may be made to a Plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person using “Plan Assets” to acquire this Certificate.

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

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

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

 

 

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

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

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

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

 

 

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

            Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2005, among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc., Ameriquest Mortgage Company and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, relating to Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc., Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-R6
 

 

Ladies and Gentlemen:

Pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, dated as of July 1, 2005, among Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc. as Depositor, Ameriquest Mortgage Company as master servicer and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company as trustee, we hereby acknowledge that as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it or such Custodian and are not mutilated, torn or defaced unless initialed by the related borrower and relate to such Mortgage Loan, (iii) based on its
or the Custodian’s examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (1) through (3), (6), (9), (10), (13), (15) and (19) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File.

The Trustee has made no independent examination of any documents contained in each Mortgage File beyond the review specifically required in the above-referenced Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The Trustee makes no representations as to: (i) the validity, legality, sufficiency, recordability, enforceability or genuineness of any of the documents contained in the Mortgage File of any of the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, or (ii) the collectability, insurability, perfection, priority, effectiveness or suitability of any such Mortgage Loan.

The Trustee was under no duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine whether they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or whether they have actually been 

 

recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face or (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clause (v) of Section 2.01.

 

Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

MORTGAGE LOAN PURCHASE AGREEMENT

This is a Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”), dated July 27, 2005, between Ameriquest Mortgage Company, a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”), and Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc., a Delaware corporation (the “Purchaser”).

Preliminary Statement

The Seller intends to sell the Mortgage Loans (as hereinafter defined) to the Purchaser on the terms and subject to the conditions set forth in this Agreement.  The Purchaser shall deposit the Mortgage Loans into a mortgage pool constituting the Trust Fund.  The Trust Fund will be evidenced by a single series of asset-backed pass-through certificates designated as Series 2005-R6 (the “Certificates”).  The Certificates will consist of eighteen classes of certificates.  The Class CE Certificates, the Class P Certificates, the Class R Certificates and the Class R-X Certificates (collectively, the “Non-Offered Certificates”) will be delivered to the Seller or its designee as partial consideration for the Mortgage Loans as further described below.

The Certificates will be issued pursuant to a Pooling and Servicing Agreement relating to the Series 2005-R6 Certificates, dated as of July 1, 2005 (the “Pooling and Servicing Agreement”), among the Purchaser as depositor (in such capacity, the “Depositor”), the Seller as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”) and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company as trustee (the “Trustee”).  Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Depositor will assign all of its right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, together with its rights under this Agreement, to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein shall have the meanings set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

The parties hereto agree as follows:

SECTION 1.   Agreement to Purchase.  The Seller hereby sells, and the Purchaser hereby purchases, as of July 29, 2005 (the “Closing Date”), certain adjustable-rate and fixed-rate conventional, one- to four-family, residential mortgage loans (the “Mortgage Loans”), having an aggregate principal balance as of the close of business on July 1, 2005 (the “Cut-off Date”) of $1,200,000,912.21 after giving effect to all payments due on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date (the “Closing Balance”), whether or not received, including the right to any Prepayment Charges collected after the Cut-off Date from the Mortgagors in connection with any Principal Prepayments on the Mortgage Loans.  Any payments (including Prepayment Charges) collected on or before the Cut-off Date, including all
scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-off Date and collected after the Cut-off Date, shall belong to the Seller.  In addition to the sale of the Mortgage Loans, the Seller will direct the Swap Administrator to enter into the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Group II Swap Agreement on behalf of the Trust.

SECTION 2.   Mortgage Loan Schedule and Prepayment Charge Schedule.  The Purchaser and the Seller have agreed upon which of the mortgage loans owned by the Seller are to be purchased by the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, and the Seller shall prepare or 

 

cause to be prepared on or prior to the Closing Date a final schedule (the “Closing Schedule”) describing such Mortgage Loans and setting forth all of the Mortgage Loans to be purchased under this Agreement.  The Closing Schedule shall conform to the requirements set forth in this Agreement and to the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The Closing Schedule shall be used as the Mortgage Loan Schedule under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  The Seller shall also prepare or cause to be prepared on or prior to the Closing Date a final schedule (the “Prepayment Charge Schedule”) setting forth each Mortgage Loan containing a Prepayment Charge and conforming to the definition of Prepayment Charge Schedule under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.

	
            SECTION 3.
 	
            Consideration.
 

(a)        In consideration for the Mortgage Loans to be purchased hereunder, the Purchaser shall, as described in Section 8, (i) pay to or upon the order of the Seller in immediately available funds an amount equal to the net sale proceeds of the Class A and Mezzanine Certificates and (ii) deliver to the Seller or its designee the Non-Offered Certificates.

(b)       [Reserved].

	
            SECTION 4.
 	
            Transfer of the Mortgage Loans.
 

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

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

(1)         the original Mortgage Note, endorsed in blank without recourse 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 with respect to any lost Mortgage Note, an original Lost Note Affidavit; provided, however, that such substitutions of Lost Note Affidavits for original Mortgage Notes may occur only with respect to Mortgage Loans, the aggregate Cut-off Date Principal Balance of which is less than or equal to 2.00% of the Pool Balance as of the Cut-off Date;

 

 

(2)         the original Mortgage 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;

	
            (3)
 	
  an original Assignment assigned in blank, without recourse;
 

(4)         the original recorded intervening Assignment or Assignments showing a complete chain of assignment from the originator to the Person assigning the Mortgage to the Trustee as contemplated by the immediately preceding clause (iii) or the original unrecorded intervening Assignments;

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

(6)         the original lender’s title insurance policy or an attorney’s opinion of title or similar guarantee of title acceptable to mortgage lenders generally in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, together with all endorsements or riders which were issued with or subsequent to the issuance of such policy, insuring the priority of the Mortgage as a first lien on the Mortgaged Property represented therein as a fee interest vested in the Mortgagor, or in the event such original title policy is unavailable, a written commitment or uniform binder or preliminary report of title issued by the title insurance or escrow company.

If any document referred to in Section 4(b)(2), 4(b)(3) or 4(b)(4) above has 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 Seller hereunder shall be deemed to have been satisfied upon (1) delivery by or on behalf of the Seller promptly upon receipt thereof to the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser of either the original or a copy of such document certified by the Seller in the case of (x) above or the public recording office in the case of (y) above to be a true and complete copy of the recorded original thereof and (2) if such delivered copy is certified by the Seller, then in addition thereto, delivery promptly upon receipt thereof of either the original or a copy of such
document certified by the public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original.  In the event that the original lender’s title insurance policy has not yet been issued, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser a written commitment or interim binder or preliminary report of title issued by the title insurance or escrow company.  Promptly upon receipt by the Seller of any such original title insurance policy the Seller shall deliver such to the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser.

The Seller shall promptly (and in no event later than thirty (30) Business Days, subject to extension upon mutual agreement between the Seller and the Trustee, following the later of (i) the Closing Date, (ii) the date on which the Seller receives the Assignment from the Trustee and (iii) the date of receipt by the Seller of the recording information for a Mortgage) submit or cause to be submitted for recording, at no expense to the Trust Fund or the Trustee, in the appropriate public office for real property records, each Assignment referred to in (3) and (4) 

 

above and shall execute each original Assignment referred to in (3) in the following form: “Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as Trustee under the applicable agreement”.  In the event that any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the 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, however, for administrative convenience and facilitation of servicing and to reduce closing costs, so long as recordation of an Assignment is not necessary to protect the Trustee’s and the Certificateholders’ interests in the related Mortgage Loan under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located, the Assignments shall not be required to be
submitted for recording (except with respect to any Mortgage Loan located in Maryland) unless such failure to record would result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by any Rating Agency of the rating on any Class of Certificates; provided further, however, each Assignment shall be submitted for recording by the Seller (at the direction of the Master Servicer) in the manner described above, at no expense to the Trust Fund or the Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction by Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights or the NIMS Insurer, (ii) a failure of the Master Servicer Termination Test as set forth in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (iii) the occurrence of the bankruptcy or insolvency of the Seller, (iv) the occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and (v) if the Seller is not the Master Servicer and with respect to any one assignment or Mortgage, the occurrence of a
bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage.

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

(c)        Acceptance of Mortgage Loans.  The documents delivered pursuant to Section 4(b) hereof shall be reviewed by the Purchaser or any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser at any time before or after the Closing Date (and with respect to each document permitted to be delivered after the Closing Date, within seven (7) days of its delivery) to ascertain that all required documents have been executed and received and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.

	
            (d)
 	
            [Reserved].
 

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

(f)         Examination of Mortgage Files.  Prior to the Closing Date, the Seller shall either (i) deliver in escrow to the Purchaser or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser, for examination, the Mortgage File pertaining to each Mortgage Loan or (ii) make such Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser or to any assignee, transferee or designee of the Purchaser for examination at the Trustee’s offices in Santa Ana, California.  Such examination 

 

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

	
            SECTION 5.
 	
            Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Seller.
 

The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser as of the date hereof and as of the Closing Date, and covenants that:

(1)         The Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and is duly authorized and qualified to transact any and all business contemplated by this Agreement to be conducted by the Seller in any state in which a Mortgaged Property is located or is otherwise not required under applicable law to effect such qualification and, in any event, is in compliance with the doing business laws of any such State, to the extent necessary to ensure the ability of the Master Servicer to enforce each Mortgage Loan and to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement;

(2)         The Seller had the full corporate power and authority to originate, hold and sell each Mortgage Loan and has the full corporate power and authority to service each Mortgage Loan, and to execute, deliver and perform, and to enter into and consummate the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and has duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Seller the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement; this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Seller and this Agreement, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery thereof by the Purchaser, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with its terms, except to the extent that (a) the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally and (b) the remedy of specific performance and injunctive and other forms of equitable relief may be subject to the equitable defenses and to the discretion of the court before which any proceeding therefor may be brought;

(3)         The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller, the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the consummation of any other of the transactions herein contemplated, and the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business of the Seller and will not (A) result in a breach of any term or provision of the 

 

charter or by-laws of the Seller or (B) conflict with, result in a breach, violation or acceleration of, or result in a default under, the terms of any other material agreement or instrument to which the Seller is a party or by which it may be bound, or any statute, order or regulation applicable to the Seller of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Seller; and the Seller is not a party to, bound by, or in breach or violation of any indenture or other agreement or instrument, or subject to or in violation of any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over it, which materially and adversely affects or, to the Seller’s knowledge, would in the future materially and adversely affect, (x) the ability of the Seller to perform its obligations
under this Agreement or (y) the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the Seller taken as a whole;

(4)         No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of, or compliance by the Seller with, this Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or if any such consent, approval, authorization or order is required, the Seller has obtained the same;

Any Mortgage Loans rejected by the Purchaser shall concurrently therewith be released from the security interest created hereby.  The Seller agrees that, upon acceptance of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser or its designee and delivery of payment to the Seller, that its security interest in the Mortgage Loans shall be released.  All rights and remedies of the Purchaser under this Agreement are distinct from, and cumulative with, any other rights or remedies under this Agreement or afforded by law or equity and all such rights and remedies may be exercised concurrently, independently or successively.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on the Closing Date, each of the conditions set forth in Section 8 hereof shall have been satisfied and the Purchaser shall not have paid or caused to be paid the Purchase Price, or any such condition shall not have been waived or satisfied and the Purchaser determines not to pay or cause to be paid the Purchase Price, the Purchaser shall immediately effect the redelivery of the Mortgage Loans, if delivery to the Purchaser has occurred and the security interest created by this Section 13 shall be deemed to have been released.

SECTION 14. Notices.  All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered to or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid, or transmitted by telex or telegraph and confirmed by a similar mailed writing, if to the Purchaser, addressed to the Purchaser at 1100 Town & Country Road, Suite 1100, Orange, California 92868, Facsimile: (714) 564-9639, Attention: General 

 

Counsel, or such other address as may hereafter be furnished to the Seller in writing by the Purchaser; if to the Seller, addressed to the Seller at 1100 Town & Country Road, Suite 1100, Orange, California 92868, Facsimile: (714) 564-9639, Attention: General Counsel, or to such other address as the Seller may designate in writing to the Purchaser.

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

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

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

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

SECTION 19.  Miscellaneous.  This Agreement may be executed in two or more counterparts, each of which when so executed and delivered shall be an original, but all of which together shall constitute one and the same instrument.  This Agreement shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the parties hereto and their respective successors and assigns.  This Agreement supersedes all prior agreements and understandings relating to the subject matter hereof.  Neither this Agreement nor any term hereof may be changed, waived, discharged or terminated orally, but only by an instrument in writing signed by the party against whom 

 

enforcement of the change, waiver, discharge or termination is sought.  The headings in this Agreement are for purposes of reference only and shall not limit or otherwise affect the meaning hereof.  The NIMS Insurer, if any, shall be a third-party beneficiary hereof and may enforce the terms hereof as if a party hereto.

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

SECTION 20.  Obligations of ACC Capital Holdings Corporation.  ACC Capital Holdings Corporation (“ACCH”) agrees with the Purchaser and any assignee of the Purchaser as follows: as an inducement to the Purchaser’s agreement to purchase the Mortgage Loans from the Seller, to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and any assignee of the Purchaser against any failure by the Seller to repurchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 7 hereof; provided, however, ACCH may at any time terminate its obligations pursuant to this Section 20 so long as it receives written confirmation from the Rating Agencies that such termination would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrade by any Rating Agency of the rating on any Class of Certificates.

 

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Seller and the Purchaser have caused their names to be signed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.

1.          As indicated below, the undersigned is the President, Chief Financial Officer or Senior Vice President of the entity purchasing the Certificates (the “Transferee”) or, if the Transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (“Rule 144A”) because the Transferee is part of a Family of Investment Companies (as defined below), is such an officer of the investment adviser (the “Adviser”).

2.          In connection with purchases by the Transferee, the Transferee is a “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A because (i) the Transferee is an investment company registered under the Investment Company Act of 1940, as amended, and (ii) as marked below, the Transferee alone, or the Transferee’s Family of Investment Companies, owned at least $100,000,000 in securities (other than the excluded securities referred to below) as of the end of the Transferee’s most recent fiscal year. For purposes of determining the amount of securities owned by the Transferee or the Transferee’s Family of Investment Companies, the cost of such securities was used.

____    The Transferee owned $___________________ 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).

: ss.: 

	
            COUNTY OF NEW YORK
 	
            )
 

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

1.          I am a ______________________ of ____________________________ (the “Owner”) a corporation duly organized and existing under the laws of ______________, the record owner of Ameriquest Mortgage Securities Inc., Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-R6, Class R (the “Class R Certificates”), on behalf of whom I make this affidavit and agreement.  Capitalized terms used but not defined herein have the respective meanings assigned thereto in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement pursuant to which the Class R Certificates were issued.

2.          The Owner (i) is and will be a “Permitted Transferee” as of ____________________, 2005 and (ii) is acquiring the Class R Certificates for its own account or for the account of another Owner from which it has received an affidavit in substantially the same form as this affidavit.  A “Permitted Transferee” is any person other than a “disqualified organization” or a possession of the United States.  For this purpose, a “disqualified organization” means the United States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (other than an instrumentality all of the activities of which are subject to tax and a majority of whose board of directors is not selected by any such governmental entity) or any foreign government, international organization or
any agency or instrumentality of such foreign government or organization, any rural electric or telephone cooperative, or any organization (other than certain farmers’ cooperatives) that is generally exempt from federal income tax unless such organization is subject to the tax on unrelated business taxable income.

3.          The Owner is aware (i) of the tax that would be imposed on transfers of the Class R Certificates to disqualified organizations under the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended, that applies to all transfers of the Class R Certificates after March 31, 1988; (ii) that such tax would be on the transferor or, if such transfer is through an agent (which person includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a non-Permitted Transferee, on the agent; (iii) that the person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the tax if the transferee furnishes to such person an affidavit that the transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of transfer, such person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false; and (iv) that each of the Class R Certificates may be a “noneconomic residual
interest” within the meaning of proposed Treasury regulations promulgated under the Code and that the transferor of a “noneconomic residual interest” will remain liable for any taxes due with respect to the income on such residual interest, unless no significant purpose of the transfer is to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

4.          The Owner is aware of the tax imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding the Class R Certificates if, at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity, a non-

 

Permitted Transferee is the record holder of an interest in such entity. (For this purpose, a “pass-through entity” includes a regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives.)

5.          The Owner is aware that the Certificate Registrar will not register the transfer of any Class R Certificate unless the transferee, or the transferee’s agent, delivers to the Certificate Registrar, among other things, an affidavit in substantially the same form as this affidavit. The Owner expressly agrees that it will not consummate any such transfer if it knows or believes that any of the representations contained in such affidavit and agreement are false.

6.          The Owner consents to any additional restrictions or arrangements that shall be deemed necessary upon advice of counsel to constitute a reasonable arrangement to ensure that the Class R Certificates will only be owned, directly or indirectly, by an Owner that is a Permitted Transferee.

	
            7.
 	
            The Owner’s taxpayer identification number is ____________.
 

8.          The Owner has reviewed the restrictions set forth on the face of the Class R Certificates and the provisions of Section 5.02(d) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the Class R Certificates were issued (in particular, clauses (iii)(A) and (iii)(B) of Section 5.02(d) which authorize the Trustee to deliver payments to a person other than the Owner and negotiate a mandatory sale by the Trustee in the event that the Owner holds such Certificate in violation of Section 5.02(d)); and that the Owner expressly agrees to be bound by and to comply with such restrictions and provisions.

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

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

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

12.        The Owner has no present knowledge or expectation that it will be unable to pay any United States taxes owed by it so long as any of the Certificates remain outstanding.

13.        The Owner is not acquiring the Class R Certificates with the intent to transfer the Class R Certificates to any person or entity that will not have sufficient assets to pay any taxes owed by the holder of such Class R Certificates, or that may become insolvent or subject to a bankruptcy proceeding, for so long as the Class R Certificates remain outstanding.

14.        The Owner will, in connection with any transfer that it makes of the Class R Certificates, obtain from its transferee the representations required by Section 5.02(d) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement under which the Class R Certificate were issued and will not 

 

consummate any such transfer if it knows, or knows facts that should lead it to believe, that any such representations are false.

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

16.        The Owner is a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation or partnership (or other entity treated as a corporation or partnership for federal income tax purposes) created or organized in, or under the laws of, the United States, any state thereof or the District of Columbia (except, in the case of a partnership or entity treated as a partnership, to the extent provided in regulations), an estate the income of which is subject to United States federal income taxation regardless of its source or a trust other than a “foreign trust” described in section 7701(a)(31) of the Code.

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Owner has caused this instrument to be executed on its behalf, pursuant to the authority of its Board of Directors, by its [Vice] President, attested by its [Assistant] Secretary, this ____ day of __________, 200__.

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

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

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

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

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

("ISDA") and will be governed in all respects by the Definitions (except that references to "Swap Transactions" shall be deemed to be references to "Transactions"). The Definitions are incorporated by reference in, and made part of, this Agreement and each Confirmation as if set forth in full in this Agreement and such Confirmations. In the event of any inconsistency between the provisions of this Agreement and the Definitions, this Agreement will prevail (and, in the event of any inconsistency between any Confirmation and the Definitions, the Confirmation will control). Any reference in a Confirmation to any
Definitions which are amended or supplemented in this Schedule shall be deemed to be a reference to such Definitions as so amended or supplemented, unless the Confirmation states, by specific reference to any such amendment or supplement, that such amendment or supplement will not apply in respect of the Transaction to which such Confirmation relates. Any capitalized terms used but not otherwise defined in this Agreement shall have the meanings assigned to them (or incorporated by reference) in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. 

	
            (b)
 	
            Downgrade Provisions.  
 

 

(1)              It shall be a collateralization event (Collateralization Event) if (A) either (i) the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported long-term senior debt obligations of Party A are rated below "A1" by Moody's Investors Service, Inc. (Moody's) or are rated "A1" by Moody's and such rating is on watch for possible downgrade (but only for so long as it is on watch for possible downgrade) or (ii) the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported short-term debt obligations of Party A are rated below "P-1" by Moody's or are rated "P-1" by Moody's and such rating is on watch for possible downgrade (but only for so long as it is on watch for possible
downgrade), (B) no short-term rating is available from Moody’s and the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported long-term senior debt obligations of Party A are rated below "Aa3" by Moody's or are rated "Aa3" by Moody's and such rating is on watch for possible downgrade (but only for so long as it is on watch for possible downgrade), or (C) either (i) the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported short-term debt obligations of Party A are rated below “A-1” by Standard & Poor's Rating Services, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc.

defined herein) and (c) assumes the obligations of Party A under this Agreement (through an assignment and assumption agreement in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to Party B) or replaces the outstanding Transactions hereunder with transactions on identical terms, except that Party A shall be replaced as counterparty, provided that such substitute counterparty, as of the date of such assumption or replacement, will not, 

 

as a result thereof, be required to withhold or deduct on account of tax under the Agreement or the new transactions, as applicable, and such assumption or replacement will not lead to a termination event or event of default occurring under the Agreement or new transactions, as applicable.  To the extent that Party A elects or is required to post collateral pursuant to this Part 5(b)(1), Party A shall request its legal counsel to deliver to each applicable Rating Agency within thirty (30) calendar days of the occurrence of such Collateralization Event an opinion as to the enforceability of the ISDA Credit Support Annex.

            (3)

new transactions, as applicable, and such assumption or replacement will not lead to a termination event or event of default occurring under the Agreement or new transactions, as applicable, and (ii) be required to post collateral as set forth in (b) below; 

(b)      If Party A has not obtained a substitute counterparty as set forth in (3)(a) above within 30 days (or, in the case of a failure to meet the requirements of subparagraph (A) of the definition of "Hedge Counterparty Ratings Threshold", as soon as commercially practicable after such failure) of the Ratings Event, then Party A shall continue to seek a substitute counterparty and, on or prior to the expiration of such period, post collateral according to the terms of the Credit Support Annex.  Notwithstanding anything contained herein to the contrary, if Party A is required to transfer its rights and obligations under this Agreement pursuant to this Part 5(b)(3) as a result of a rating issued by S&P, Party A shall, at all times prior to such transfer, be required to post collateral in accordance
with (i) the terms of the Credit Support Annex or (ii) an agreement with Party B providing for the posting of collateral, which agreement shall satisfy the Rating Agency Condition specified in Part 5(n) below and require Party A to post the required collateral.

Hedge Counterparty Ratings Requirement shall mean (a) either (i) the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported short-term debt obligations of the substitute counterparty are rated at least “A-1” by S&P or (ii) if the substitute counterparty does not have a short-term rating from S&P, the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported long-term senior debt obligations of 

 

the substitute counterparty are rated at least “A+” by S&P, (b) either (i) the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported long-term senior debt obligations of such substitute counterparty are rated at least “A1" by Moody’s (and if rated “A1” by Moody’s, such rating is not on watch for possible downgrade) and the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported short-term debt obligations of such substitute counterparty are rated at least “P-1” by Moody’s (and if rated “P-1” by Moody’s, such rating is not on watch for possible downgrade and remaining on watch for possible downgrade), or (ii) if such substitute counterparty does not have a short-term debt rating from Moody’s, the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported long-term senior debt obligations of such substitute counterparty are rated at
least “Aa3” by Moody’s (and if rated “Aa3” by Moody’s, such rating is not on watch for possible downgrade), and (c) either (i) the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported long-term senior debt obligations of such substitute counterparty are rated at least “A” by Fitch or (ii) the unsecured, unguaranteed and otherwise unsupported short-term debt obligations of such substitute counterparty are rated at least “F1” by Fitch. For the purpose of this definition, no direct or indirect recourse against one or more shareholders of the substitute counterparty (or against any Person in control of, or controlled by, or under common control with, any such shareholder) shall be deemed to constitute a guarantee, security or support of the obligations of the substitute counterparty.

written notice to Party B; provided that, with respect to clause (ii), (A) as of the date of such transfer the Transferee will not be required to withhold or deduct on account of a Tax from any payments under this Agreement unless the Transferee will be required to make payments of additional amounts pursuant to Section 2(d)(i)(4) of this Agreement in respect of such Tax; (B) a Termination Event or Event of Default does not occur under this Agreement as a result of such transfer; (C) such notice is accompanied by a written instrument pursuant to which the Transferee acquires and assumes the rights and obligations of Party A so transferred; and (D) Party A will be responsible for any costs or expenses incurred in connection with such transfer.

the transferring party obtains a written acknowledgment from each of the Rating Agencies (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) that, notwithstanding such transfer, the then-current ratings of the Offered Certificates will not be reduced or withdrawn.

Except as specified otherwise in the documentation evidencing a transfer, a transfer of all the obligations of Party A made in compliance with this Section 7 will constitute an acceptance and assumption of such obligations (and any related interests so transferred) by the Transferee, a novation of the transferee in place of Party A with respect to such obligations (and any related interests so transferred), and a release and discharge by Party B of Party A from, and an agreement by Party B not to make any claim for payment, liability, or otherwise against Party A with respect to, such obligations from and after the effective date of the transfer.

.

	
            (iv)

            Holding Collateral
 

 

 

 

 

The Secured Party shall cause any Custodian appointed hereunder to open and maintain a segregated account and to hold, record and identify all the Posted Collateral in such segregated account and, subject to Paragraphs 6(c) and 8(a), such Posted Collateral shall at all times be and remain the property of the Pledgor and shall at no time constitute the property of, or be commingled with the property of, the Secured Party or the Custodian.

 

	
            (viii)
 	
            Security and Performance
 

 

Eligible Collateral Transferred to the Secured Party constitutes security and performance assurance without which the Secured Party would not otherwise enter into and continue any and all Transactions.

 

	
            (ix)
 	
            Agreement as to Single Secured Party and Pledgor

If the Borrower fails to meet both of these conditions or the Borrower is uncooperative, a Disposal Loss Mitigation Action will be employed to liquidate the delinquent loan, assuming the Borrower does not otherwise cure the existing default. Each of the Default Mitigation Actions and Supporting Standards may not be applicable to each and every loan subject to a default in its monthly payments and in those cases where a Default Mitigation Action or Supporting Standard may be applicable, each is subject to amendment and/or waiver on an individual basis pursuant to applicable federal, state and local laws,
decisional authorities, court orders, instructions of regulatory and/or other governmental authorities, the advice of legal counsel, instructions from the Trustee and changes in the loan servicing standards.

            fourth, from the remaining Group I Interest Funds, to the Class I-A-1 Notes and Class I-A-2 Notes, on a pro rata basis, in an amount equal to any Basis Risk Shortfall Carryover Amounts on such Class for such Payment Date.

(b)      On each Payment Date prior to the Cross-Over Date but after the reduction of the Note Principal Balance of all of the Senior Notes of a Note Group to zero, the remaining Class or Classes of Senior Notes in the remaining Note Group will be entitled to receive in reduction of their Notes Principal Balances, pro rata based upon their Note Principal Balances immediately prior to such Payment Date, in addition to any Principal Prepayments related to such remaining Senior Notes' respective Loan Group allocated to such Senior Notes, 100% of the Principal Prepayments on any Mortgage Loan in the Loan Group relating to the Class or Classes of Senior Notes of the fully repaid Note Group; provided, however, that if (A) the weighted average of the Subordinate Percentages on such Payment Date equals or exceeds two times the initial weighted
average of the Subordinate Percentages and (B) the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans delinquent 60 days or more (including for this purpose any such Mortgage Loans in foreclosure and bankruptcy and Mortgage Loans with respect to which the related Mortgaged Property has been acquired by the Trust), averaged over the last six months, as a percentage of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Subordinate Notes does not exceed 50%, then the additional allocation of Principal Prepayments to the Senior Notes in accordance with this clause (b) will not be made and 100% of the Principal Prepayments on any Mortgage Loan in the Loan Group relating to the fully repaid Class or Classes of Senior Notes will be allocated to the Subordinate Notes.

(c)      If on any Payment Date on which the aggregate Note Principal Balance of Senior Notes in a Note Group would be greater than the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group and any Subordinate Notes are still outstanding, in each case after giving effect to distributions to be made on such Payment Date, (A) 100% of amounts otherwise allocable to the Subordinate Notes in respect of principal will be distributed to such Class or Classes of Senior Notes in reduction of the Note Principal Balances thereof, until the aggregate Note Principal Balance of such Class or Classes of Senior Notes is an amount equal to the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group, and (B) the Accrued Note Interest otherwise allocable to the Subordinate Notes on such Payment
Date will be reduced, if necessary, and distributed to such Class or Classes of Senior Notes in an amount equal to the Accrued Note Interest for such Payment Date on the excess of (x) the aggregate Note Principal Balance of such Class or Classes of Senior Notes over (y) the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group. Any such reduction in the Accrued Note Interest on the Subordinate Notes will be allocated to such Subordinate Notes commencing with the class of Subordinate Notes with the lowest payment priority.

(d)      If, after distributions have been made pursuant to priorities first and second of clauses (a)(I) and (II) above on any Payment Date, the remaining Group I Available Funds and Group II Available Funds are less than the Group I Senior Optimal Principal Amount and Group II Senior Optimal Principal Amount, respectively, the Senior Optimal Principal Amount for such Loan Group shall be reduced, and such remaining Available Funds for a Loan Group will be distributed to the related Senior Notes, on a pro rata basis, on the basis of such reduced amount.

(e)      No Accrued Note Interest will be payable with respect to any Class of Notes after the Payment Date on which the Note Principal Balance or Notional Amount of such Note has been reduced to zero.

 

 

(f)       If on any Payment Date the Interest Funds for the Senior Notes in any Note Group is less than the Accrued Note Interest on the related Senior Notes for such Payment Date prior to reduction for Net Interest Shortfalls and the interest portion of Realized Losses, the shortfall will be allocated among the holders of each Class of Senior Notes in such Note Group in proportion to the respective amounts of Accrued Note Interest that would have been allocated thereto in the absence of such Net Interest Shortfalls and/or Realized Losses for such Payment Date. In addition, the amount of any interest shortfalls will constitute unpaid Accrued Note Interest and will be distributable to holders of the Notes of the related Classes entitled to such amounts on subsequent Payment Dates, to the extent of the applicable Available Funds after
current interest distributions as required herein. Any such amounts so carried forward will bear interest. Shortfalls in interest payments will not be offset by a reduction in the servicing compensation of the Master Servicer or otherwise, except to the extent of applicable Compensating Interest Payments.

(g)      Each distribution with respect to a Book-Entry Note shall be paid to the Depository, as Holder thereof, and the Depository shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distribution to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures. Each Depository Participant shall be responsible for disbursing such distribution to the Note 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 Note Owners that it represents. None of the Securities Administrator, the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Depositor or the Master Servicer shall have any responsibility therefor.

(h)      On each Payment Date, the Certificate Paying Agent shall deposit in the Certificate Distribution Account all amounts it received pursuant to this Section 3.03 for the purpose of distributing such funds to the Certificateholders. The Certificate Paying Agent shall make distributions to the Certificateholders under the Trust Agreement as directed by the Securities Administrator hereunder.

(i)       Any installment of interest or principal, if any, payable on any Note that is punctually paid or duly provided for by the Issuer on the applicable Payment Date shall, if such Holder shall have so requested at least five Business Days prior to the related Record Date, be paid to each Holder of record on the preceding Record Date, by wire transfer to an account specified in writing by such Holder as of the preceding Record Date or in all other cases or if no such instructions have been delivered to the Securities Administrator, by check to such Noteholder mailed to such Holder’s address as it appears in the Note Register in the amount required to be distributed to such Holder on such Payment Date pursuant to such Holder’s Notes; provided, however, that the Securities Administrator shall not pay to such Holders any
amount required to be withheld from a payment to such Holder by the Code.

(j)       The Note Principal Balance of each Note shall be due and payable in full on the Final Scheduled Payment Date for such Note as provided in the forms of Note set forth in Exhibits A-1, A-2 and A-3 to this Indenture. All principal payments on the Notes shall be made to the Noteholders entitled thereto in accordance with the Percentage Interests represented by such Notes. Upon notice to the Securities Administrator by the Issuer, the Securities Administrator shall notify the Person in whose name a Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date preceding the Final Scheduled Payment Date or other final 

 

Payment Date (including any final Payment Date resulting from any redemption pursuant to Section 8.06 hereof). Such notice shall to the extent practicable be mailed no later than five Business Days prior to such Final Scheduled Payment Date or other final Payment Date and shall specify that payment of the principal amount and any interest due with respect to such Note at the Final Scheduled Payment Date or other final Payment Date will be payable only upon presentation and surrender of such Note and shall specify the place where such Note may be presented and surrendered for such final payment. No interest shall accrue on the Notes on or after the Final Scheduled Payment Date or any such other final Payment Date.

(d)      The Issuer may retain an administrator and may enter into contracts with other Persons for the performance of the Issuer’s obligations hereunder, and performance of such obligations by such Persons shall be deemed to be performance of such obligations by the Issuer.

(i)         except as expressly permitted by this Indenture, sell, transfer, exchange or otherwise dispose of the Trust Estate.

(ii)         claim any credit on, or make any deduction from the principal or interest payable in respect of, the Notes (other than amounts properly withheld from such payments under the Code) or assert any claim against any present or former Noteholder, by reason of the payment of the taxes levied or assessed upon any part of the Trust Estate;

            Section 3.18
 	
            Determination of Note Index.  
 

Annually, on each Interest Determination Date, the Securities Administrator will determine the One-Year LIBOR Note Index for the Senior Notes for the related Payment Date ad the following eleven Payment Dates.  The One-Year LIBOR Note Index will be based on the London interbank offered rate for one-year United States dollar deposits as such rate appears on the Telerate Screen Page 3750, as of 11:00 a.m. (London time) on such Interest Determination Date. If the rate for the One-Year LIBOR Note Index does not appear or is not available on Telerate Screen Page 3750, the One-Year LIBOR Note Index for the related Interest Accrual Period for the Senior Notes will be established by the Securities Administrator as follows:

(a)      If on such Interest Determination Date two or more Reference Banks provide such offered quotations, the One-Year LIBOR Note Index for the related Interest Accrual Period shall be the arithmetic mean of such offered quotations (rounded upwards if necessary to the nearest whole multiple of 0.0625%).

(b)      If on such Interest Determination Date fewer than two Reference Banks provide such offered quotations, the One-Year LIBOR Note Index for the related Interest Accrual Period shall be the higher of (x) the One-Year LIBOR Note Index as determined on the previous Interest Determination Date and (y) the Reserve Interest Rate.

The establishment of the One-Year LIBOR Note Index on each Interest Determination Date by the Securities Administrator and the Securities Administrator's calculation of the rate of 

 

interest applicable to the related Class of Notes for the related Interest Accrual Period shall (in the absence of manifest error) be final and binding.

Section 3.19     Restricted Payments.  The Issuer shall not, directly or indirectly, (i) pay any dividend or make any distribution (by reduction of capital or otherwise), whether in cash, property, securities or a combination thereof, to the Owner Trustee or any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or otherwise with respect to any ownership or equity interest or security in or of the Issuer, (ii) redeem, purchase, retire or otherwise acquire for value any such ownership or equity interest or security or (iii) set aside or otherwise segregate any amounts for any such purpose; provided, however, that the Issuer may make, or cause to be made, (x) distributions and payments to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the
Certificate Paying Agent, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders as contemplated by, and to the extent funds are available for such purpose under this Indenture and the Basic Documents and (y) payments to the Master Servicer and the Servicer pursuant to the terms of the Servicing Agreements. The Issuer will not, directly or indirectly, make payments to or distributions from the Master Servicer Collection Account or the Payment Account except in accordance with this Indenture and the Basic Documents.

Section 3.20     Notice of Events of Default.  The Issuer shall give the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator and each Rating Agency prompt written notice of each Event of Default hereunder.

Section 3.21     Further Instruments and Acts.  Upon request of the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer will execute and deliver such further instruments and do such further acts as may be reasonably necessary or proper to carry out more effectively the purpose of this Indenture.

(a)      With respect to that portion of the Collateral described in clauses (a) through (c) of the definition of Trust Estate, the Issuer represents to the Indenture Trustee that:

(i)         This Indenture creates a valid and continuing security interest (as defined in the applicable UCC) in the Collateral in favor of the Indenture Trustee, which security interest is prior to all other liens, and is enforceable as such as against creditors of and purchasers from the Issuer.

(ii)         The Collateral constitutes “deposit accounts,” “instruments” or “certificated securities,” as applicable within the meaning of the applicable UCC.

(iii)        The Issuer owns and has good and marketable title to the Collateral, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance of any Person.

(iv)        The Issuer has caused or will have caused, within ten days of the Closing Date, the filing of all appropriate financing statements in the proper filing office in the appropriate jurisdictions under applicable law in order to perfect the security interest in the Collateral granted to the Indenture Trustee hereunder.

(v)        Other than the security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Indenture, the Issuer has not pledged, assigned, sold, granted a security interest in, or otherwise conveyed any of the Collateral.  The Issuer has not authorized the filing of and is not aware of any financing statements against the Issuer that include a description of collateral covering the Collateral other than any financing statement relating to the security interest granted to the Indenture Trustee hereunder or that has been terminated.

(vi)       The Collateral is not in the name of any Person other than the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee.  The Issuer has in its possession all original copies of the security certificates that constitute or evidence the Collateral.  The security certificates that constitute or evidence the Collateral do not have any marks or notations indicating that they have been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any Person other than the Indenture Trustee.  The Issuer has not consented to the bank maintaining the Collateral to comply with instructions of any Person other than the Indenture Trustee.

Section 3.24     Allocation of Realized Losses.  (a)  On or prior to each Payment Date, the Master Servicer shall determine, based solely on information provided to it by the related Servicer the amount of any Realized Loss in respect of each Mortgage Loan that occurred during the immediately preceding calendar month.

(b)      With respect to any Notes (other than the Class X Notes) on any Payment Date, the principal portion of each Realized Loss on a Mortgage Loan shall be allocated as follows:

first, to the Class B-6 Notes until the Note Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

second, to the Class B-5 Notes until the Note Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

third, to the Class B-4 Notes until the Note Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

fourth, to the Class B-3 Notes until the Note Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero;

fifth, to the Class B-2 Notes until the Note Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; 

sixth, to the Class B-1 Notes until the Note Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and

seventh, with respect to the principal portion of Realized Losses on the Group I Loans, first, to the Class I-A-2 Notes and then to the Class I-A-1 Notes, in each case, until the Note Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and with respect to the principal portion of 

 

Realized Losses on the Group II Loans, first, to the Class II-A-2 Notes and then to the Class II-A-1 Notes, in each case, until the Note Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero.

(c)        Notwithstanding the foregoing clause (b), no such allocation of any Realized Loss shall be made on a Payment Date to any Class or Classes of Notes to the extent that such allocation would result in the reduction of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of all of the Classes of Notes as of such Payment Date, after giving effect to all distributions and prior allocations of Realized Losses on such date, to an amount less than the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the related Due Date (such limitation, the “Loss Allocation Limitation”).

(d)        The principal portion of any Realized Losses allocated to a Class of Notes shall be allocated among the Notes of such Class (other than the Class X Notes) in proportion to their respective Note Principal Balances. Any allocation of Realized Losses shall be accomplished by reducing the Note Principal Balance of the Notes on the related Payment Date.

(e)        Realized Losses shall be allocated on the Payment Date in the month following the month in which such loss was incurred and, in the case of the principal portion thereof, after giving effect to distributions made on such Payment Date.

(f)         On each Payment Date, the Securities Administrator shall determine the Subordinate Writedown Amount. Any such Subordinate Writedown Amount shall effect a corresponding reduction in the Note Principal Balance of (i) with respect to the Subordinate Writedown Amount, if prior to the Cross-Over Date, the Class B-6, Class B-5, Class B-4, Class B-3, Class B-2 and Class B-1 Notes, in that order, and (iii) from and after the Cross-Over Date, to the Senior Notes, in accordance with priorities set forth in clause (b) above, in each case, on such Payment Date after giving effect to distributions made on such Payment Date.

(g)        The interest portion of any Realized Losses with respect to the Mortgage Loans occurring on or prior to the Cross-Over Date will be borne sequentially to the Class B-6, Class B-5, Class B-4, Class B-3, Class B-2, Class B-1 and Class X, in that order. Once the aggregate Note Principal Balance or Notional Amount, as applicable, of the Subordinate Notes have been reduced to zero, the interest portion of Realized Losses on the Group I Loans will be allocated first to the Class I-A-2 Notes and then to the Class I-A-1 Notes, and the interest portion of Realized Losses on the Group II Loans will be allocated first, to the Class II-A-2 Notes and then to the Class II-A-1 Notes, in each case in reduction Accrued Note Interest on such Class.

(h)        In addition, in the event that the Securities Administrator receives any Subsequent Recoveries from the Servicer or Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator shall deposit such funds into the Payment Account  pursuant to Section 3.01 of this Indenture.  If, after taking into account such Subsequent Recoveries, the amount of a Realized Loss is reduced, the amount of such Subsequent Recoveries will be applied to increase the Note Principal Balance of the Notes with the highest payment priority to which Realized Losses have been allocated, but not by more than the amount of Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class or Classes of Notes pursuant to this Section 3.24.  The amount of any Subsequent Recoveries following the application set forth in the immediately preceding sentence will be applied to sequentially increase the Note
Principal Balance of the Notes, beginning with the Class of Notes with the next highest payment priority, up to the amount of such Realized Losses previously allocated to such 

 

Class or Classes of Notes pursuant to this Section 3.24.  Holders of such Notes will not be entitled to any payments in respect of Accrued Note Interest on the amount of such increases for any Interest Accrual Period preceding the Payment Date on which such increase occurs.  Any such increases shall be applied to the Note Principal Balance of the Notes of such Class in accordance with its respective Percentage Interest.

Section 3.25     Permitted Withdrawals and Transfers from the Payment Account.  (a)  The Securities Administrator will, from time to time on demand of the Master Servicer, make or cause to be made such withdrawals or transfers from the Payment Account as the Master Servicer has designated for such transfer or withdrawal pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement or as the Securities Administrator has instructed hereunder for the following purposes (limited in the case of amounts due the Master Servicer to those not withdrawn from the Master Servicer Collection Account) but not in any order of priority:

(i)         to reimburse the Master Servicer or the related Servicer for any Monthly Advance of its own funds, the right of the Master Servicer or the related Servicer to reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (i) being limited to amounts received on a particular Mortgage Loan (including, for this purpose, the Repurchase Price therefor, Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds) which represent late payments or recoveries of the principal of or interest on such Mortgage Loan respecting which such Monthly Advance was made;

(ii)         to reimburse the Master Servicer or the related Servicer from Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds relating to a particular Mortgage Loan for amounts expended by the Master Servicer or such Servicer in good faith in connection with the restoration of the related Mortgaged Property which was damaged by an Uninsured Cause or in connection with the liquidation of such Mortgage Loan;

(iv)        to reimburse the Master Servicer or the related Servicer for advances of funds (other than Monthly Advances) made with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and the right to reimbursement pursuant to this subclause being limited to amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan (including, for this purpose, the Repurchase Price therefor, Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds) which represent late recoveries of the payments for which such advances were made;

(v)        to reimburse the Master Servicer or the related Servicer for any Monthly Advance or advance, after a Realized Loss has been allocated with respect to the related 

 

Mortgage Loan if the Monthly Advance or advance has not been reimbursed pursuant to clauses (i) and (iv);

(vi)        to pay the Master Servicer as set forth in Section 3.13 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement; provided however, that the Master Servicer shall be obligated to pay from its own funds any amounts which it is required to pay under Section 5.03 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement;

(vii)       to reimburse the Master Servicer for expenses, costs and liabilities incurred by and reimbursable to it pursuant to Sections 3.02, 5.04(c) and (d) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, to the extent that the Master Servicer has not already reimbursed itself for such amounts from the Master Servicer Collection Account;

(viii)      to pay to the Master Servicer, as additional servicing compensation, any Excess Liquidation Proceeds to the extent not retained by the related Servicer; 

(ix)        to reimburse or pay the related Servicer any such amounts as are due thereto under the related Servicing Agreements and have not been retained by or paid to the related Servicer, to the extent provided in the related Servicing Agreement; 

(x)        to reimburse or pay the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer any amounts due or expenses, costs and liabilities incurred by or reimbursable to such Persons pursuant to this Indenture or any other Basic Documents, to the extent such amounts have not already been previously paid or reimbursed to such party from the Master Servicer Collection Account;

	
            (xi)
 	
            to remove amounts deposited in error; and
 

(xii)        to pay to the Holder of the Trust Certificates any investment income due and payable to it pursuant to this Indenture.

For federal income tax purposes, the Seller or its designee shall be the owner of the Group I Pre-Funding Account and Group II Pre-Funding Account and shall report all items of income, deduction, gain or loss arising therefrom. All income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in the Pre-Funding Accounts shall be included in the related Available Funds at the following times: (i) on the Business Day immediately preceding each Payment Date, if a Person other than the Securities Administrator or an affiliate of the Securities Administrator is the obligor for the Permitted Investment, or on each Payment Date, if the Securities Administrator or an affiliate of the Securities Administrator is the obligor for the Permitted Investment, (ii) on the Business Day immediately preceding each Subsequent Transfer Date, if a Person other than the Securities
Administrator or an affiliate of the Securities Administrator is the obligor for the Permitted Investment, or on each Subsequent Transfer Date, if the Securities Administrator or an affiliate of the Securities Administrator is the obligor for the Permitted Investment or (iii) within one Business Day of the Securities Administrator’s receipt thereof. Such transferred funds shall not constitute income and gain for purposes of Section 3.27(b) hereof.

related Group I Pre-Funding Account and Group II Pre-Funding Account (exclusive of investment income) for distribution in accordance with the terms hereof;

(iii)        To withdraw any amount not required to be deposited in the related Group I Pre-Funding Account or Group II Pre-Funding Account or deposited therein in error; and

Each of the Group I Interest Coverage Account and the Group II Interest Coverage Account shall be an Eligible Account or a sub account of an Eligible
Account. The Securities Administrator shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in the related Interest Coverage Account and retain therein the related Interest Coverage Amount remitted on the Closing Date to the Securities Administrator by the Seller and all income and gain realized from investment of funds deposited in the Pre-Funding Account pursuant to Section 3.27(b).

If no written direction with respect to such investment shall be received by the Securities Administrator from the Seller, then funds in such Account shall remain uninvested.  The Seller shall deposit in the related Interest Coverage
Account the amount of any net loss incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment immediately upon realization of such loss.

(c)      On each Payment Date during the Pre-Funding Period and on the day of termination of the Pre-Funding Period, the Securities Administrator shall withdraw from the related Interest Coverage Account and deposit in the Payment Account an amount equal to 30 days’ interest on the excess, if any, of the Group I Original Pre-Funded Amount and Group II Original Pre-Funded Amount, respectively, over the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of

Such withdrawal and deposit shall be treated as a contribution of cash by the Seller on the date thereof. Immediately following any such withdrawal and deposit, and immediately following the conveyance of any Group I Subsequent Mortgage Loans or Group II Subsequent Mortgage Loans to the Trust on any Subsequent Transfer Date, the Securities Administrator shall, at the request of the Seller, withdraw from the Group I Interest Coverage Account or Group II Interest Coverage Account and remit to the Seller or its designee an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the amount remaining in such
Group I Interest Coverage Account or Group II Interest Coverage Account, respectively, over the amount that would be required to be withdrawn therefrom (assuming sufficient funds therein) pursuant to the preceding sentence on each subsequent Payment Date, if any, that will occur during the Pre-Funding Period or that will be the Payment Date immediately following the end of the Pre-Funding Period, if no related Group I Subsequent Mortgage Loans or Group II Subsequent Mortgage Loans were acquired by the Trust Estate after the end of the Prepayment Period relating to the current Payment Date.    

(d)      Upon the earliest of (i) the Payment Date immediately following the end of the Pre-Funding Period, (ii) the reduction of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes to zero or (iii) the termination of this Indenture in accordance with Section 8.03, any amount remaining on deposit in the related Interest Coverage Accounts after distributions pursuant to paragraph (c) above shall be withdrawn by the Securities Administrator and paid to the Seller or its designee.

THE NOTES; SATISFACTION AND DISCHARGE OF INDENTURE

Section 4.01     The Notes.  Each Class of Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2 Notes shall be registered in the name of a nominee designated by the Depository. Beneficial Owners will hold interests in the Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2 Notes through the book-entry facilities of the Depository in minimum initial Note Principal Balances of $25,000 and integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof.

The Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator may for all purposes (including the making of payments due on the Notes) deal with the Depository as the authorized representative of the Beneficial Owners with respect to the Notes for the purposes of exercising the rights of Holders of the Notes hereunder. Except as provided in the next succeeding paragraph of this Section 4.01, the rights of Beneficial Owners with respect to the Notes shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Beneficial Owners and the Depository and Depository Participants. Except as provided in Section 4.08 hereof, Beneficial Owners shall not be entitled to definitive certificates for the Notes as to which they are the Beneficial Owners. Requests and directions from, and votes of, the Depository as Holder of the Notes shall not be deemed inconsistent if they are made with respect to
different Beneficial Owners. The Securities Administrator may establish a reasonable record date in connection with solicitations of consents from or voting by Noteholders and give notice to the Depository of such record date. Without the consent of the Issuer and the Securities Administrator, no Note may be transferred by the Depository except to a successor Depository that agrees to hold such Note for the account of the Beneficial Owners.

In the event the Depository Trust Company resigns or is removed as Depository, the Depositor may appoint a successor Depository.  If no successor Depository has been appointed within 30 days of the effective date of the Depository’s resignation or removal, each Beneficial Owner shall be entitled to certificates representing the Notes it beneficially owns in the manner prescribed in Section 4.08.

The Notes shall, on original issue, be executed on behalf of the Issuer by the Owner Trustee, not in its individual capacity but solely as Owner Trustee, authenticated by the Securities Administrator and delivered by the Securities Administrator to or upon the order of the Issuer.

Section 4.02     Registration of and Limitations on Transfer and Exchange of Notes; Appointment of Note Registrar and Certificate Registrar.  The Issuer shall cause to be kept at the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator a Note Register in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Note Registrar shall provide for the registration of Notes and of transfers and exchanges of Notes as herein provided.

 

 

Subject to the restrictions and limitations set forth below, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Note at the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator, the Issuer shall execute and the Note Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Notes in authorized initial Note Principal Balances evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interests.

No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Privately Offered Note or interest therein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws.  If a transfer of any Privately Offered Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance thereof or a transfer thereof to the Depositor or one of its Affiliates), then the Note Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless (i) it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C hereto (provided, however, that in the case of the Book-Entry Notes, the Noteholder
and the Noteholder’s prospective transferee will be deemed to have made the representations set forth in such certification) or (ii) (a) it receives a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, describing the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws or is being made pursuant to the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the  Issuer, the Seller, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any Servicer and (b) the transferee executes a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached hereto, and transferor executes a representation letter, substantially in the form of Exhibit E hereto, each acceptable to
and in form and substance satisfactory to the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee certifying the facts surrounding such transfer, which representation letters shall not be an expense of the Issuer, the Seller, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any Servicer.  None of the Issuer, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Note Registrar is obligated to register or qualify any Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under this Indenture to permit the transfer of any Note or interest therein without registration or qualification.  Any Noteholder desiring to effect a transfer of Notes or interests therein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Issuer, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Note Registrar against any liability that may
result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws or in accordance with any restrictions on transfer set forth in this Indenture.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the provisions of this paragraph shall not apply to the initial transfer of the Notes to the Depositor or any Affiliate thereof.

No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Class X Notes or Class B Notes (other than any Class X Notes or Class B Notes with respect to which a “will be debt” opinion has been rendered by nationally recognized tax counsel and furnished to the Securities Administrator) or interest therein shall be made, and the Note Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition, unless the transferee shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F hereto certifying that (i) it is a real estate 

 

investment trust (“REIT”) within the meaning of Section 856(a) of the Code or a qualified REIT subsidiary (“QRS”) within the meaning of Section 856(i) of the Code or an entity disregarded as an entity separate from a REIT or a QRS and (ii) following the transfer, 100% of the Certificates and Class X Notes and Class B Notes (other than any Class X Notes or Class B Notes with respect to which a “will be debt” opinion has been rendered by nationally recognized tax counsel and furnished to the Securities Administrator) will be owned by a single REIT, directly or indirectly through one or more qualified QRSs of such REIT or one or more entities disregarded as entities separate from such REIT or such QRSs; provided that (x) any Class X Notes or Class B Notes may be pledged to secure indebtedness and may be the subject of repurchase agreements treated by the Issuer as secured
indebtedness for federal income tax purposes, and (y) any Class X Notes or Class B Notes may be transferred by the related lender under any such related loan agreement or repurchase agreement upon a default under any such indebtedness, in which case the transferor shall deliver to the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee a certificate substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G certifying to such effect. For the avoidance of doubt, any Class X Notes or Class B Notes with respect to which a “will be debt” opinion has been rendered by nationally recognized tax counsel and furnished to the Securities Administrator will not be subject to the foregoing transfer restrictions.

Subject to the foregoing, and Section 4.08, Notes may be exchanged for other Notes of like tenor and in authorized initial Note Principal Balances evidencing the same Class and aggregate Percentage Interests upon surrender of the Notes to be exchanged at the Corporate Trust Office of the Note Registrar. Whenever any Notes are so surrendered for exchange, the Issuer shall execute and the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver the Notes which the Noteholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Each Note presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Note Registrar) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form reasonably satisfactory to the Note Registrar duly executed by the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing with such signature guaranteed by a commercial
bank or trust company located or having a correspondent located in the city of New York. Notes delivered upon any such transfer or exchange will evidence the same obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the Notes surrendered.

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes, but the Note Registrar shall require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer or exchange of Notes.

The Issuer hereby appoints the Securities Administrator as (i) Certificate Registrar to keep at its Corporate Trust Office a Certificate Register pursuant to Section 3.08 of the Trust Agreement in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Certificate Registrar shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges thereof pursuant to Section 3.04 of the Trust Agreement and (ii) Note Registrar under this Indenture. The Securities Administrator hereby accepts such appointments.

Section 4.03     Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Notes.  If (i) any mutilated Note is surrendered to the Securities Administrator, or the Securities Administrator receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Note, and (ii) there is delivered to the Securities Administrator such security or indemnity as may be required by it to hold the Issuer 

 

and the Securities Administrator harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Securities Administrator that such Note has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, and provided that the requirements of Section 8-405 of the UCC are met, the Issuer shall execute, and upon its request the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note, a replacement Note; provided, however, that if any such destroyed, lost or stolen Note, but not a mutilated Note, shall have become or within seven days shall be due and payable, instead of issuing a replacement Note, the Issuer may pay such destroyed, lost or stolen Note when so due or payable without surrender thereof.  If, after the delivery of such replacement Note or payment of a destroyed, lost or stolen Note pursuant to the proviso to the
preceding sentence, a bona fide purchaser of the original Note in lieu of which such replacement Note was issued presents for payment such original Note, the Issuer and the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to recover such replacement Note (or such payment) from the Person to whom it was delivered or any Person taking such replacement Note from such Person to whom such replacement Note was delivered or any assignee of such Person, except a bona fide purchaser, and shall be entitled to recover upon the security or indemnity provided therefor to the extent of any loss, damage, cost or expense incurred by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator in connection therewith.

Upon the issuance of any replacement Note under this Section 4.03, the Issuer may require the payment by the Holder of such Note of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other reasonable expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Securities Administrator) connected therewith.

Every replacement Note issued pursuant to this Section 4.03 in replacement of any mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall constitute an original additional contractual obligation of the Issuer, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Note shall be at any time enforceable by anyone, and shall be entitled to all the benefits of this Indenture equally and proportionately with any and all other Notes duly issued hereunder.

The provisions of this Section 4.03 are exclusive and shall preclude (to the extent lawful) all other rights and remedies with respect to the replacement or payment of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes.

Section 4.04     Persons Deemed Owners.  Prior to due presentment for registration of transfer of any Note, the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Paying Agent and any agent of the Issuer or the Securities Administrator or the Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name any Note is registered (as of the day of determination) as the owner of such Note for the purpose of receiving payments of principal of and interest, if any, on such Note and for all other purposes whatsoever, whether or not such Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Paying Agent or any agent of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Indenture Trustee or the Paying Agent shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 4.05     Cancellation.  All Notes surrendered for payment, registration of transfer, exchange or redemption shall, if surrendered to any Person other than the Securities Administrator, be delivered to the Securities Administrator and shall be promptly cancelled by the Securities Administrator. The Issuer may at any time deliver to the Securities Administrator 

 

for cancellation any Notes previously authenticated and delivered hereunder which the Issuer may have acquired in any manner whatsoever, and all Notes so delivered shall be promptly cancelled by the Securities Administrator. No Notes shall be authenticated in lieu of or in exchange for any Notes cancelled as provided in this Section 4.05, except as expressly permitted by this Indenture. All cancelled Notes may be held or disposed of by the Securities Administrator in accordance with its standard retention or disposal policy as in effect at the time unless the Issuer shall direct by an Issuer Request that they be destroyed or returned to it; provided, however, that such Issuer Request is timely and the Notes have not been previously disposed of by the Securities Administrator.

Section 4.06     Book-Entry Notes.  The Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2, upon original issuance, will be issued in the form of typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry Notes, to be delivered to The Depository Trust Company, the initial Depository, by, or on behalf of, the Issuer. The Notes shall initially be registered on the Note Register in the name of Cede & Co., the nominee of the initial Depository, and no Beneficial Owner will receive a Definitive Note representing such Beneficial Owner’s interest in such Note, except as provided in Section 4.08. With respect to such Notes, unless and until definitive, fully registered Notes (the “Definitive Notes”) have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 4.08:

	
            (i)
 	
            the provisions of this Section 4.06 shall be in full force and effect;
 

(ii)         the Note Registrar, the Paying Agent, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to deal with the Depository for all purposes of this Indenture (including the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and the giving of instructions or directions hereunder) as the sole holder of the Notes, and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners of the Notes;

(iii)        to the extent that the provisions of this Section 4.06 conflict with any other provisions of this Indenture, the provisions of this Section 4.06 shall control;

(iv)        the rights of Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through the Depository and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Owners of Notes and the Depository and/or the Depository Participants. Unless and until Definitive Notes are issued pursuant to Section 4.08, the initial Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants and receive and transmit payments of principal of and interest on the Notes to such Depository Participants; and

(v)        whenever this Indenture requires or permits actions to be taken based upon instructions or directions of Holders of Notes evidencing a specified percentage of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes, the Depository shall be deemed to represent such percentage with respect to the Notes only to the extent that it has received instructions to such effect from Beneficial Owners and/or Depository Participants owning or representing, respectively, such required percentage of the beneficial interest in the Notes and has delivered such instructions to the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee. 

None of the Depositor, the Issuer, the Master Servicer, the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Owner Trustee shall have any liability for any aspect of the records relating to or payments made on account of beneficial 

 

ownership interests in the Book-Entry Notes or for maintaining, supervising or reviewing any records relating to beneficial ownership interests or transfers thereof.

The Class X, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Notes will be registered in full definitive form.

Section 4.07     Notices to Depository.  Whenever a notice or other communication to the Note Holders is required under this Indenture, unless and until Definitive Notes shall have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 4.08, the Indenture Trustee or Securities Administrator, as applicable, shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Notes to the Depository, and shall have no obligation to the Beneficial Owners.

Section 4.08     Definitive Notes.  If (i) the Depositor advises the Securities Administrator in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to properly discharge its responsibilities with respect to the Book-Entry Notes and the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor within 30 days or (ii) the Depositor, at its option (with the consent of the Securities Administrator, such consent not to be unreasonably withheld) elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository, then the Securities Administrator shall request that the Depository notify all Beneficial Owners of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Notes to Beneficial Owners requesting the same.  Upon surrender to the Securities Administrator of the typewritten Notes representing the Book-Entry
Notes by the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions, the Issuer shall execute and the Securities Administrator shall authenticate the Definitive Notes in accordance with the instructions of the Depository.  None of the Issuer, the Note Registrar or the Securities Administrator shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.  Upon the issuance of Definitive Notes, the Securities Administrator shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Notes as Noteholders.

In addition, if an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, each Note Owner materially adversely affected thereby may at its option request a Definitive Note evidencing such Noteholder's interest in the related Class of Notes.  In order to make such request, such Noteholder shall, subject to the rules and procedures of the Depository, provide the Depository or the related Depository Participant with directions for the Securities Administrator to exchange or cause the exchange of the Noteholder's interest in such Class of Notes for an equivalent interest in fully registered definitive form.  Upon receipt by the Securities Administrator of instructions from the Depository directing the Securities Administrator to effect such exchange (such instructions to contain information regarding the Class of Notes and the Note Principal Balance being exchanged, the Depository Participant
account to be debited with the decrease, the registered holder of and delivery instructions for the Definitive Note, and any other information reasonably required by the Securities Administrator), (i) the Securities Administrator shall instruct the Depository to reduce the related Depository Participant's account by the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Definitive Note, (ii) the Securities Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in accordance with the registration and delivery instructions provided by the Depository, a Definitive Note evidencing such Noteholder's interest in such Class of Notes and (iii) the Issuer shall execute and the Securities Administrator shall authenticate a new Book-Entry Note reflecting the reduction in the Note Principal Balance of such Class of Notes by the amount of the Definitive Notes.

 

 

Section 4.09     Tax Treatment.  The Issuer has entered into this Indenture, and the Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2 Notes will be issued with the intention that, for federal, state and local income, single business and franchise tax purposes, such Classes of Notes will qualify as indebtedness. The Issuer and the Securities Administrator (in accordance with Section 6.07 hereof), by entering into this Indenture, and each Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2 Noteholder, by its acceptance of its Note (and each Beneficial Owner by its acceptance of an interest in the applicable Book-Entry Note), agree to treat such Classes of Notes for federal, state and local income, single business and franchise tax purposes as indebtedness.

Section 4.10     Satisfaction and Discharge of Indenture.  This Indenture shall cease to be of further effect with respect to the Notes except as to (i) rights of registration of transfer and exchange, (ii) substitution of mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Notes, (iii) rights of Noteholders to receive payments of principal thereof and interest thereon, (iv) Sections 3.03, 3.04, 3.06, 3.09, 3.17, 3.19 and 3.20, (v) the rights, obligations and immunities of the Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator hereunder (including the rights of the Securities Administrator under Section 6.08 and the obligations of the Securities Administrator under Section 4.11), and (vi) the rights of Noteholders as beneficiaries hereof with respect to the property so deposited with the Securities Administrator payable to all or any
of them, and the Indenture Trustee, on demand of and at the expense of the Issuer, shall execute proper instruments acknowledging satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes and shall release and deliver, or cause the Custodian to deliver, the Collateral to or upon the order of the Issuer, when

	
            (A)
 	
            either
 

(1)        all Notes theretofore authenticated and delivered (other than (i) Notes that have been destroyed, lost or stolen and that have been replaced or paid as provided in Section 4.03 hereof and (ii) Notes for whose payment money has theretofore been deposited in trust or segregated and held in trust by the Issuer and thereafter repaid to the Issuer or discharged from such trust, as provided in Section 3.03) have been delivered to the Securities Administrator for cancellation; or

(2)        all Notes not theretofore delivered to the Securities Administrator for cancellation

	
            a.
 	
            have become due and payable,
 

	
            b.
 	
            will become due and payable at the Final Scheduled Payment Date within one year, or
 
	
            c.
 	
            have been called for early redemption and the Trust has been terminated pursuant to Section 8.06 hereof,
 

and the Issuer, in the case of a. or b. above, has irrevocably deposited or caused to be irrevocably deposited with the Securities Administrator cash or direct obligations of or obligations guaranteed by the United States of America (which will mature prior to the date such amounts are payable), in trust for such purpose, in an amount sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness on such Notes then outstanding not theretofore delivered to the Securities Administrator for cancellation when due on the Final Scheduled Payment Date or other final 

 

Payment Date and has delivered to the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee a verification report from a nationally recognized accounting firm certifying that the amounts deposited with the Securities Administrator are sufficient to pay and discharge the entire indebtedness of such Notes, or, in the case of c. above, the Issuer shall have complied with all requirements of Section 8.06 hereof,

(B)        the Issuer has paid or caused to be paid all other sums payable hereunder; and

(C)       the Issuer has delivered to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each meeting the applicable requirements of Section 10.01 hereof, each stating that all conditions precedent herein provided for relating to the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture have been complied with and, if the Opinion of Counsel relates to a deposit made in connection with Section 4.10(A)(2)b. above, such opinion shall further be to the effect that such deposit will constitute an “in-substance defeasance” within the meaning of Revenue Ruling 85-42, 1985-1 C.B. 36, and in accordance therewith, the Issuer will be the owner of the assets deposited in trust for federal income tax purposes.

Section 4.11     Application of Trust Money.  All monies deposited with the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 4.10 hereof shall be held in trust and applied by it, in accordance with the provisions of the Notes and this Indenture, to the payment, either directly or through any Paying Agent or the Certificate Paying Agent as designee of the Issuer, as the Securities Administrator may determine, to the Holders of Securities, of all sums due and to become due thereon for principal and interest or otherwise; but such monies need not be segregated from other funds except to the extent required herein or required by law.

	
            Section 4.12
 	
            [Reserved].
 

Section 4.13     Repayment of Monies Held by Paying Agent.  In connection with the satisfaction and discharge of this Indenture with respect to the Notes, all monies then held by any Person other than the Securities Administrator under the provisions of this Indenture with respect to such Notes shall, upon demand of the Issuer, be paid to the Securities Administrator to be held and applied according to Section 3.03 and thereupon such Person shall be released from all further liability with respect to such monies.

Section 4.14     Temporary Notes.  Pending the preparation of any Definitive Notes, the Issuer may execute and upon its written direction, the Securities Administrator may authenticate and make available for delivery, temporary Notes that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, photocopied or otherwise produced, in any denomination, substantially of the tenor of the Definitive Notes in lieu of which they are issued and with such appropriate insertions, omissions, substitutions and other variations as the officers executing such Notes may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Notes.

If temporary Notes are issued, the Issuer will cause Definitive Notes to be prepared without unreasonable delay. After the preparation of the Definitive Notes, the temporary Notes shall be exchangeable for Definitive Notes upon surrender of the temporary Notes at the Corporate Trust Office of the Securities Administrator, without charge to the Holder. Upon 

 

surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Notes, the Issuer shall execute and the Securities Administrator shall authenticate and make available for delivery, in exchange therefor, Definitive Notes of authorized denominations and of like tenor, class and aggregate principal amount. Until so exchanged, such temporary Notes shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Indenture as Definitive Notes.

Section 4.15     Representation Regarding ERISA.  By acquiring a Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2 or interest therein, each Holder of such Note or Beneficial Owner of any such interest will be deemed to represent that either (1) it is not acquiring such Note with Plan Assets or (2) (A) the acquisition, holding and transfer of such Note will not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and (B) the Notes are rated investment grade or better and such person believes that the Notes are properly treated as indebtedness without substantial equity features for purposes of the Department of Labor regulation 29 C.F.R. § 2510.3-101, and agrees to so treat the Notes. Alternatively, regardless of the rating of the Notes, such person may
provide the Securities Administrator and the Note Registrar with an opinion of counsel, which opinion of counsel will not be at the expense of the Issuer, the Seller, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Note Registrar, the Master Servicer or any servicer which opines that the acquisition, holding and transfer of such Note or interest therein is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Issuer, the Seller, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Note Registrar, the Master Servicer or any Servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture and the other Basic Documents.

No transfer of any Class X, Class B-1, Class B-2, Class B-3, Class B-4, Class B-5 or Class B-6 Notes or any interest therein shall be made to any Person unless the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar are provided with an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the satisfaction of the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar that the purchase of the Notes 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 Issuer, the Seller, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Note Registrar to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Indenture, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee,
the Securities Administrator, the Notes Registrar or the Master Servicer. In lieu of such Opinion of Counsel, a Person acquiring the Notes may provide a certification in the form each attached hereto as paragraph 3 of Exhibit C or clause (d) of Exhibit D, which the Issuer, the Seller, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Note Registrar may rely upon without further inquiry or investigation. Neither an Opinion of Counsel nor a certification will be required in connection with the initial transfer of any such Notes by the Depositor to an affiliate of the Depositor (in which case, the Depositor or any affiliate thereof shall be deemed to have represented that such affiliate is not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets of any Plan) and the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Note Register shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the
Master Servicer and the Note Register, shall be a written representation) from the Depositor of the status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.

 

 

ARTICLE V

 

DEFAULT AND REMEDIES

Section 5.01     Events of Default.  The Issuer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee, within five days after learning of the occurrence of a Default, written notice in the form of an Officer’s Certificate of any event which with the giving of notice and the lapse of time would become an Event of Default under clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) of the definition of “Event of Default”, its status and what action the Issuer is taking or proposes to take with respect thereto. The Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of such Default or Event of Default is received by a Responsible Officer and such notice references the Notes, the Trust Estate or this Indenture.

Section 5.02     Acceleration of Maturity; Rescission and Annulment.  If an Event of Default should occur and be continuing, then and in every such case the Indenture Trustee at the written direction of the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes may declare the Notes to be immediately due and payable, by a notice in writing to the Issuer (and to the Indenture Trustee if such notice is given by Noteholders), and upon any such declaration the unpaid Note Principal Balance of the Notes, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon through the date of acceleration, shall become immediately due and payable.

At any time after such declaration of acceleration of maturity with respect to an Event of Default has been made and before a judgment or decree for payment of the money due has been obtained by the Indenture Trustee as hereinafter in this Article V provided, Holders of the Notes representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of each Class of Notes, by written notice to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, may, subject to Section 5.12, waive the related Event of Default and rescind and annul such declaration and its consequences if:

(i)         the Issuer has paid or deposited with the Indenture Trustee or Securities Administrator a sum sufficient to pay:

(A)       all payments of principal of and interest on the Notes and all other amounts that would then be due hereunder or under the Notes if the Event of Default giving rise to such acceleration had not occurred;

(B)        all sums paid or advanced by the Indenture Trustee hereunder and the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel; and

(ii)         all Events of Default, other than the nonpayment of the principal of the Notes that has become due solely by such acceleration, have been cured or waived as provided in Section 5.12.

No such rescission shall affect any subsequent default or impair any right consequent thereto.

 

 

Section 5.03     Collection of Indebtedness and Suits for Enforcement by Indenture Trustee.

(a)      The Issuer covenants that if (i) default is made in the payment of any interest on any Note when the same becomes due and payable, and such default continues for a period of five days, or (ii) default is made in the payment of the principal of or any installment of the principal of any Note when the same becomes due and payable, the Issuer shall, upon demand of the Indenture Trustee, acting at the direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balances of the Notes, pay to the Securities Administrator, for the benefit of the Holders of Notes, the whole amount then due and payable on the Notes for principal and interest, with interest at the applicable Note Interest Rate upon the overdue principal, and in addition thereto such further amount as shall be sufficient to cover the costs and expenses of
collection, including the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursements and advances of the Indenture Trustee and its agents and counsel.

(b)      In case the Issuer shall fail forthwith to pay such amounts upon such demand, the Indenture Trustee, in its own name and as trustee of an express trust, subject to the provisions of Section 10.15 hereof, may institute a Proceeding for the collection of the sums so due and unpaid, and may prosecute such Proceeding to judgment or final decree, and may enforce the same against the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes and collect in the manner provided by law out of the property of the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, wherever situated, the monies adjudged or decreed to be payable.

(c)      If an Event of Default occurs and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 10.15 hereof, may, as more particularly provided in Section 5.04 hereof, in its discretion, proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Noteholders by such appropriate Proceedings as directed in writing by Holders of a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balances of each Class of Notes, to protect and enforce any such rights, whether for the specific enforcement of any covenant or agreement in this Indenture or in aid of the exercise of any power granted herein, or to enforce any other proper remedy or legal or equitable right vested in the Indenture Trustee by this Indenture or by law.

(d)      In case there shall be pending, relative to the Issuer or any other obligor upon the Notes or any Person having or claiming an ownership interest in the Trust Estate, Proceedings under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or other similar law, or in case a receiver, assignee or trustee in bankruptcy or reorganization, liquidator, sequestrator or similar official shall have been appointed for or taken possession of the Issuer or its property or such other obligor or Person, or in case of any other comparable judicial Proceedings relative to the Issuer or other obligor upon the Notes, or to the creditors or property of the Issuer or such other obligor, the Indenture Trustee, as directed in writing by Holders of a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balances of each
Class of Notes, irrespective of whether the principal of any Notes shall then be due and payable as therein expressed or by declaration or otherwise and irrespective of whether the Indenture Trustee shall have made any demand pursuant to the provisions of this Section, shall be entitled and empowered, by intervention in such Proceedings or otherwise:

(i)         to file and prove a claim or claims for the whole amount of principal and interest owing and unpaid in respect of the Notes and to file such other papers or documents as 

 

may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee (including any claim for reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and for reimbursement of all expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee, except as a result of negligence, willful misconduct or bad faith) and of the Noteholders allowed in such Proceedings;

(ii)         unless prohibited by applicable law and regulations, to vote on behalf of the Holders of Notes in any election of a trustee, a standby trustee or Person performing similar functions in any such Proceedings;

(iii)        to collect and receive any monies or other property payable or deliverable on any such claims and to distribute all amounts received with respect to the claims of the Noteholders and of the Indenture Trustee on their behalf, and

(iv)        to file such proofs of claim and other papers or documents as may be necessary or advisable in order to have the claims of the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes allowed in any judicial proceedings relative to the Issuer, its creditors and its property;

and any trustee, receiver, liquidator, custodian or other similar official in any such Proceeding is hereby authorized by each of such Noteholders to make payments to the Securities Administrator, and, in the event that the Indenture Trustee shall consent to the making of payments directly to such Noteholders, to pay to the Indenture Trustee such amounts as shall be sufficient to cover reasonable compensation to the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents, attorneys and counsel, and all other expenses and liabilities incurred, and all advances made, by the Indenture Trustee and each predecessor Indenture Trustee.

(e)      Nothing herein contained shall be deemed to authorize the Indenture Trustee to authorize or consent to or vote for or accept or adopt on behalf of any Noteholder any plan of reorganization, arrangement, adjustment or composition affecting the Notes or the rights of any Holder thereof or to authorize the Indenture Trustee to vote in respect of the claim of any Noteholder in any such proceeding except, as aforesaid, to vote for the election of a trustee in bankruptcy or similar Person.

(f)       All rights of action and of asserting claims under this Indenture, or under any of the Notes, may be enforced by the Indenture Trustee without the possession of any of the Notes or the production thereof in any trial or other Proceedings relative thereto, and any such action or proceedings instituted by the Indenture Trustee shall be brought in its own name as trustee of an express trust, and any recovery of judgment, subject to the payment of the expenses, disbursements and compensation of the Indenture Trustee, each predecessor Indenture Trustee and their respective agents and attorneys, shall be for the ratable benefit of the Holders of the Notes, subject to Section 5.05 hereof.

In any Proceedings brought by the Indenture Trustee (and also any Proceedings involving the interpretation of any provision of this Indenture to which the Indenture Trustee shall be a party), the Indenture Trustee shall be held to represent all the Holders of the Notes, and it shall not be necessary to make any Noteholder a party to any such Proceedings.

 

 

Section 5.04     Remedies; Priorities.  (a)  If an Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing and if an acceleration has been declared and not rescinded pursuant to Section 5.02 hereof, the Indenture Trustee, subject to the provisions of Section 10.15 hereof, may, and shall, at the written direction of the Holders of a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balances of the Notes, do one or more of the following (subject to Section 5.05 hereof):

(i)         institute Proceedings in its own name and as trustee of an express trust for the collection of all amounts then payable on the Notes or under this Indenture with respect thereto, whether by declaration or otherwise, enforce any judgment obtained, and collect from the Issuer and any other obligor upon such Notes monies adjudged due;

(ii)         institute Proceedings from time to time for the complete or partial foreclosure of this Indenture with respect to the Trust Estate;

(iii)        exercise any remedies of a secured party under the UCC and take any other appropriate action to protect and enforce the rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes; and

(iv)        sell the Trust Estate or any portion thereof or rights or interest therein, at one or more public or private sales called and conducted in any manner permitted by law;

provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee may not sell or otherwise liquidate the Trust Estate following an Event of Default, unless (A) the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Holders of 100% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes then outstanding, (B) the proceeds of such sale or liquidation distributable to the Holders of the Notes are sufficient to discharge in full all amounts then due and unpaid upon such Notes for principal and interest or (C) the Indenture Trustee determines that the Mortgage Loans will not continue to provide sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the applicable Notes as they would have become due if the Notes had not been declared due and payable, and the Indenture Trustee obtains the consent of the Holders of 66 2/3% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of each Class of Notes then outstanding, voting separately.  In
determining such sufficiency or insufficiency with respect to clause (B) and (C), the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion (obtained at the expense of the Trust) of an Independent investment banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Sale of the Trust Estate shall be made subject to the continued servicing of the Mortgage Loans by the Servicer (other than any Servicer as to which an Event of Servicer Termination has occurred and is continuing) as provided in the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

(b)      If the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator collects any money or property pursuant to this Article V, the Securities Administrator shall pay out the money or property in the following order:

FIRST: to the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, Master Servicer, the Owner Trustee, the Custodian and the Servicers for amounts due and not previously paid pursuant to the Indenture and the other Basic Documents;

 

 

SECOND: to the Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2 Noteholders, pro rata, for amounts due and unpaid on such Notes with respect to interest (not including any Basis Risk Shortfall Carryover Amounts), according to the amounts due and payable on each such Notes for interest;

THIRD: to the Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2 Noteholders, pro rata, for amounts due and unpaid on such Notes with respect to principal, and to each such Noteholder ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal, until the Note Principal Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero;

FOURTH: to the Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2, pro rata, in each case based on the amount of any Basis Risk Shortfall Carryover Amounts not previously paid; 

FIFTH: to the Class X Noteholders and Class B Noteholders, pro rata, for amounts due and unpaid on such Notes with respect to interest (not including any Basis Risk Shortfall Carryover Amounts), according to the amounts due and payable on each such Notes for interest;

SIXTH: to the Class X Noteholders and Class B Noteholders, pro rata, for amounts due and unpaid on such Notes with respect to principal, and to each such Noteholder ratably, without preference or priority of any kind, according to the amounts due and payable on such Notes for principal, until the Note Principal Balance of each such Class is reduced to zero;

SEVENTH: first, to the Class B-1 Noteholders, second, to the Class B-2 Noteholders, third, to the Class B-3 Noteholders, fourth, to the Class B-4 Noteholders, fifth, to the Class B-5 Notes and sixth, to the Class B-6 Notes, according to the amounts due and payable on such Classes of Notes for interest and principal; and

SEVENTH:  to the holders of the Trust Certificates on behalf of the Issuer.

The Securities Administrator may fix a record date and Payment Date for any payment to Noteholders pursuant to this Section 5.04. At least 15 days before such record date, the Securities Administrator shall mail to each Noteholder a notice that states the record date, the Payment Date and the amount to be paid.

Section 5.05     Optional Preservation of the Trust Estate.  If the Notes have been declared to be due and payable under Section 5.02 following an Event of Default and such declaration and its consequences have not been rescinded and annulled, the Indenture Trustee may elect to take and maintain possession of the Trust Estate. It is the desire of the parties hereto and the Noteholders that there be at all times sufficient funds for the payment of principal of and interest on the Notes and other obligations of the Issuer, and the Indenture Trustee shall take such desire into account when determining whether or not to take and maintain possession of the Trust Estate. In determining whether to take and maintain possession of the Trust Estate, the Indenture Trustee may, but need not, obtain and rely upon an opinion of an
Independent investment 

 

banking or accounting firm of national reputation as to the feasibility of such proposed action and as to the sufficiency of the Trust Estate for such purpose.

Section 5.06     Limitation of Suits.  So long as the Majority Certificateholder owns 100% of the Securities, no Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder.  No Holder of any Note shall have any right to institute any Proceeding, judicial or otherwise, with respect to this Indenture, or for the appointment of a receiver or trustee, or for any other remedy hereunder, unless and subject to the foregoing and the provisions of Section 10.15 hereof:

(i)         such Holder has previously given written notice to the Indenture Trustee of a continuing Event of Default;

(ii)         the Holders of not less than 25% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes have made a written request to the Indenture Trustee to institute such Proceeding in respect of such Event of Default in its own name as Indenture Trustee hereunder;

(iii)        such Holder or Holders have offered to the Indenture Trustee reasonable indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities to be incurred in complying with such request;

(iv)        the Indenture Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice of request and offer of indemnity, has failed to institute such Proceedings; and

(v)        no direction inconsistent with such written request has been given to the Indenture Trustee during such 60-day period by the Holders of a majority of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes.

It is understood and intended that no one or more Holders of Notes shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue of, or by availing of, any provision of this Indenture to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of any other Holders of Notes or to obtain or to seek to obtain priority or preference over any other Holders or to enforce any right under this Indenture, except in the manner herein provided.

Subject to the last paragraph of Section 5.11 herein, in the event the Indenture Trustee shall receive conflicting or inconsistent requests and indemnity from two or more groups of Holders of Notes, each representing less than a majority of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes, the Indenture Trustee shall take such action as requested by the Holders representing the highest amount (in the aggregate) of the Note Principal Balances, notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture.

Section 5.07     Unconditional Rights of Noteholders To Receive Principal and Interest.  Notwithstanding any other provisions in this Indenture, the Holder of any Note shall have the right, which is absolute and unconditional, to receive payment of the principal of and interest, if any, on such Note on or after the respective due dates thereof expressed in such Note or in this Indenture and to institute suit for the enforcement of any such payment, and such right shall not be impaired without the consent of such Holder.

 

 

Section 5.08     Restoration of Rights and Remedies.  If the Indenture Trustee or any Noteholder has instituted any Proceeding to enforce any right or remedy under this Indenture and such Proceeding has been discontinued or abandoned for any reason or has been determined adversely to the Indenture Trustee or to such Noteholder, then and in every such case the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall, subject to any determination in such Proceeding, be restored severally and respectively to their former positions hereunder, and thereafter all rights and remedies of the Indenture Trustee and the Noteholders shall continue as though no such Proceeding had been instituted.

Section 5.09     Rights and Remedies Cumulative.  No right or remedy herein conferred upon or reserved to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders is intended to be exclusive of any other right or remedy, and every right and remedy shall, to the extent permitted by law, be cumulative and in addition to every other right and remedy given hereunder or now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise. The assertion or employment of any right or remedy hereunder, or otherwise, shall not prevent the concurrent assertion or employment of any other appropriate right or remedy.

Section 5.10     Delay or Omission Not a Waiver.  No delay or omission of the Indenture Trustee or any Holder of any Note to exercise any right or remedy accruing upon any Event of Default shall impair any such right or remedy or constitute a waiver of any such Event of Default or an acquiescence therein. Every right and remedy given by this Article V or by law to the Indenture Trustee or to the Noteholders may be exercised from time to time, and as often as may be deemed expedient, by the Indenture Trustee or by the Noteholders, as the case may be.

Section 5.11     Control By Noteholders.  The Holders of a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balances of Notes shall have the right to direct the time, method and place of conducting any Proceeding for any remedy available to the Indenture Trustee with respect to the Notes or exercising any trust or power conferred on the Indenture Trustee; provided that:

(i)         such direction shall not be in conflict with any rule of law or with this Indenture;

(ii)         any direction to the Indenture Trustee to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate shall be by Holders of Notes representing not less than 100% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes or the Holders of 66 2/3% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of each Class of Notes then outstanding, voting separately as set forth in Section 5.04(a) hereof; and

(iii)        the Indenture Trustee may take any other action deemed proper by the Indenture Trustee that is not inconsistent with such direction of the Holders of Notes representing a majority of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes.

Notwithstanding the rights of Noteholders set forth in this Section 5.11 the Indenture Trustee need not take any action that it determines might involve it in liability.

Section 5.12     Waiver of Past Defaults.  Prior to the declaration of the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes as provided in Section 5.02 hereof, the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of each Class of Notes may waive any past Event of Default and its consequences except an Event of Default (a) with respect to 

 

payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes, or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision hereof which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note.  In the case of any such waiver, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes shall be restored to their former positions and rights hereunder, respectively, but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Upon any such waiver, any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been cured and not to have occurred for every purpose of this Indenture; but no such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereto.

Section 5.13     Undertaking for Costs.  All parties to this Indenture agree, and each Holder of any Note and each Beneficial Owner of any interest therein by such Holder’s or Beneficial Owner’s acceptance thereof shall be deemed to have agreed, that any court may in its discretion require, in any suit for the enforcement of any right or remedy under this Indenture, or in any suit against the Indenture Trustee for any action taken, suffered or omitted by it as Indenture Trustee, the filing by any party litigant in such suit of an undertaking to pay the costs of such suit, and that such court may in its discretion assess reasonable costs, including reasonable attorneys’ fees, against any party litigant in such suit, having due regard to the merits and good faith of the claims or defenses made by such
party litigant; but the provisions of this Section 5.13 shall not apply to (a) any suit instituted by the Indenture Trustee, (b) any suit instituted by any Noteholder, or group of Noteholders, in each case holding in the aggregate more than 10% of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes or (c) any suit instituted by any Noteholder for the enforcement of the payment of principal of or interest on any Note on or after the respective due dates expressed in such Note and in this Indenture.

Section 5.14     Waiver of Stay or Extension Laws.  The Issuer covenants (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) that it will not at any time insist upon, or plead or in any manner whatsoever, claim or take the benefit or advantage of, any stay or extension law wherever enacted, now or at any time hereafter in force, that may affect the covenants or the performance of this Indenture; and the Issuer (to the extent that it may lawfully do so) hereby expressly waives all benefit or advantage of any such law, and covenants that it shall not hinder, delay or impede the execution of any power herein granted to the Indenture Trustee, but will suffer and permit the execution of every such power as though no such law had been enacted.

Section 5.15     Sale of Trust Estate.  (a)  The power to effect any sale or other disposition (a “Sale”) of any portion of the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04 hereof is expressly subject to the provisions of Sections 5.05 and 5.11(ii) hereof and this Section 5.15. The power to effect any such Sale shall not be exhausted by any one or more Sales as to any portion of the Trust Estate remaining unsold, but shall continue unimpaired until the entire Trust Estate shall have been sold or all amounts payable on the Notes and under this Indenture shall have been paid. The Indenture Trustee may from time to time postpone any public Sale by public announcement made at the time and place of such Sale. The Indenture Trustee hereby expressly waives its right to any amount fixed by law as compensation for any Sale.

(b)      The Indenture Trustee shall not in any private Sale sell the Trust Estate, or any portion thereof, unless

 

 

(1)        the Holders of all Notes consent to or direct the Indenture Trustee to make, such Sale, or

(2)        the proceeds of such Sale would be not less than the entire amount which would be payable to the Noteholders under the Notes, in full payment thereof in accordance with Section 5.02 hereof, on the Payment Date next succeeding the date of such Sale, or

(3)        the Indenture Trustee determines that the conditions for retention of the Trust Estate set forth in Section 5.05 hereof cannot be satisfied (in making any such determination, the Indenture Trustee may rely upon an opinion of an Independent investment banking firm obtained and delivered as provided in Section 5.05 hereof), and the Holders of Notes representing at least 100% of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes consent to such Sale.

The purchase by the Indenture Trustee of all or any portion of the Trust Estate at a private Sale shall not be deemed a Sale or other disposition thereof for purposes of this Section 5.15(b).

(c)      Subject to this Section 5.15, unless the Holders representing at least 100% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes or the Holders of 66 2/3% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of each Class of Notes then outstanding, voting separately as set forth in Section 5.04(a) hereof, have otherwise consented or directed the Indenture Trustee, at any public Sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate at which a minimum bid equal to or greater than the amount described in paragraph (2) of subsection (b) of this Section 5.15 has not been established by the Indenture Trustee and no Person bids an amount equal to or greater than such amount, the Indenture Trustee, as trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, shall bid an amount (which shall include the Indenture Trustee’s right, in its capacity as Indenture
Trustee, to credit bid) at least $1.00 more than the highest other bid in order to preserve the Trust Estate on behalf of the Noteholders.

	
            (d)
 	
            In connection with a Sale of all or any portion of the Trust Estate,
 

(1)        any Holder or Holders of Notes may bid for and purchase the property offered for sale, and upon compliance with the terms of sale may hold, retain and possess and dispose of such property, without further accountability, and may, in paying the purchase money therefor, deliver any Notes or claims for interest thereon in lieu of cash up to the amount which shall, upon distribution of the net proceeds of such sale, be payable thereon, and such Notes, in case the amounts so payable thereon shall be less than the amount due thereon, shall be returned to the Holders thereof after being appropriately stamped to show such partial payment;

(2)        the Indenture Trustee may bid for and acquire the property offered for Sale in connection with any Sale thereof, and, subject to any requirements of, and to the extent permitted by, applicable law in connection therewith, may purchase all or any portion of the Trust Estate in a private sale, and, in lieu of paying cash therefor, may make settlement for the purchase price by crediting the gross Sale price against the sum of (A) the amount which would be distributable to the Holders of the Notes and Holders of Certificates on the Payment Date next succeeding the date of such Sale and (B) the 

 

expenses of the Sale and of any Proceedings in connection therewith which are reimbursable to it, without being required to produce the Notes in order to complete any such Sale or in order for the net Sale price to be credited against such Notes, and any property so acquired by the Indenture Trustee shall be held and dealt with by it in accordance with the provisions of this Indenture;

(3)        the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver an appropriate instrument of conveyance, prepared by the Issuer and satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, transferring its interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a Sale thereof; and

(4)        the Indenture Trustee is hereby irrevocably appointed the agent and attorney-in-fact of the Issuer to transfer and convey its interest in any portion of the Trust Estate in connection with a Sale thereof, and to take all action necessary to effect such Sale.

(e)      So long as the Majority Certificateholder owns 100% of the Securities, the Majority Certificateholder shall not consent to any Sale of the Trust Estate as set forth herein.

Section 5.16     Action on Notes.  The Indenture Trustee’s right to seek and recover judgment on the Notes or under this Indenture shall not be affected by the seeking, obtaining or application of any other relief under or with respect to this Indenture. Neither the lien of this Indenture nor any rights or remedies of the Indenture Trustee or the Noteholders shall be impaired by the recovery of any judgment by the Indenture Trustee against the Issuer or by the levy of any execution under such judgment upon any portion of the Trust Estate or upon any of the assets of the Issuer. Any money or property collected by the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall be applied by the Securities Administrator in accordance with Section 5.04(b) hereof.

 

 

ARTICLE VI

 

THE INDENTURE TRUSTEE AND THE SECURITIES ADMINISTRATOR

Section 6.01     Duties of Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator.  (a)  If an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing, the Indenture Trustee shall exercise the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture 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.

(b)      Except during the continuance of an Event of Default of which the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge or has received written notice, in the case of the Indenture Trustee and, at any time, in the case of the Securities Administrator:

(i)         the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Indenture and the other Basic Documents to which it is a party and no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Indenture and the other Basic Documents against the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator; and

(ii)         in the absence of bad faith on its part, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon certificates, reports, documents, Issuer Requests or other instruments or opinions furnished to each of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator and conforming to the requirements of this Indenture or the other Basic Documents; however, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall examine the certificates, reports, documents, Issuer Requests or other instruments and opinions to determine whether or not they conform on their face to the requirements of this Indenture.

(c)      The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator may not be relieved from liability for each of its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct, except that:

(ii)         neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall not be liable for any error of judgment made in good faith by a Responsible Officer unless it is proved that the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, was negligent in ascertaining the pertinent facts; and

(iii)        neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall  be liable with respect to any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in accordance with a direction received by it from Noteholders, the Certificateholders or from the Issuer, which they are entitled to give under the Basic Documents.

(d)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for interest on any money received by it except as set forth in the Basic Documents and as the Indenture Trustee may agree in writing with the Issuer.

 

 

(e)      Money held in trust by the Indenture Trustee need not be segregated from other trust funds except to the extent required by law or the terms of this Indenture or the Trust Agreement.

(f)       No provision of this Indenture shall require the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if it shall have reasonable grounds to believe that repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it.

(g)      Every provision of this Indenture relating to the conduct or affecting the liability of or affording protection to the Indenture Trustee shall be subject to the provisions of this Section.

(h)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any such event that is in fact an Event of Default or Default is received by the Indenture Trustee at its Corporate Trust Office and such notice references the Notes or Certificates generally, the Issuer, the Trust Estate or this Indenture.

Section 6.02     Rights of Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator.  (a)  The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator may rely on any document believed by it to be genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper person. The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator need not investigate any fact or matter stated in the document.

(b)      Before the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator acts or refrains from acting, it may require an Officer’s Certificate or an Opinion of Counsel. Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith in reliance on and in accordance with an Officer’s Certificate or Opinion of Counsel.

(c)      Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for any action it takes or omits to take in good faith which it believes to be authorized or within its rights or powers.

(d)      The Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator may consult with counsel, and the written advice or Opinion of Counsel (which shall not be at the expense of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator) with respect to legal matters relating to this Indenture, the other Basic Documents and the Notes shall be full and complete authorization and protection from liability in respect to any action taken, omitted or suffered by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with the written advice or opinion of such counsel.

(e)      For the limited purpose of effecting any action to be undertaken by each of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, but not specifically as a duty of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator in the Indenture, each of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder, either directly or by or through agents, attorneys, custodians or nominees appointed with due care, and shall not be responsible for any willful misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent, attorney, custodian or nominee so appointed.

 

 

(f)       The Securities Administrator or its Affiliates are permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Securities Administrator’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Permitted Investments, (ii) using Affiliates to effect transactions in certain Permitted Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Permitted Investments. Such compensation shall not be considered an amount that is reimbursable or payable to the Securities Administrator (i) as part of the compensation hereunder or (ii) out of Available Funds.

(g)      Anything in this Indenture to the contrary notwithstanding, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator be liable for special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits), even if the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action.

(h)      None of the Securities Administrator, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee shall be responsible for the acts or omissions of the other, it being understood that this Indenture shall not be construed to render them partners, joint venturers or agents of one another.

(i)       Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or indemnity reasonably satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Indenture shall in any event require the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Master Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the Indenture Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights,
duties, powers and privileges of, the Master Servicer in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement.

(j)       Except for those actions that the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator are required to take hereunder, neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any obligation or liability to take any action or to refrain from taking any action hereunder in the absence of written direction as provided hereunder.

(k)      Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be under any obligation to exercise any of the trusts or powers vested in it by this Indenture, other than its obligation to give notices pursuant to this Indenture, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto at the request, order or direction of any of the Noteholders pursuant to the provisions of this Indenture, unless such Noteholders shall have offered to the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby.  Nothing contained herein shall, however, relieve the Indenture Trustee of the obligation, upon the occurrence of an Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture
Trustee has actual knowledge (which has not been cured or waived), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Indenture and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent person would exercise under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs.

 

 

(l)       Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator 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 Holders of Notes representing not less than 25% of the Note Principal Balance of the Notes and provided that the payment within a reasonable time to the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, reasonably assured to the Indenture Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this
Indenture. The Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator may require reasonable indemnity against such expense or liability as a condition to taking any such action. The reasonable expense of every such examination shall be paid by the Noteholders requesting the investigation.

(m)     Should the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator deem the nature of any action required on its part to be unclear, the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, may require prior to such action that it be provided by the Depositor with reasonable further instructions.

(n)      The right of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator to perform any discretionary act enumerated in this Indenture shall not be construed as a duty, and neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be accountable for other than its negligence or willful misconduct in the performance of any such act.

(o)      Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be required to give any bond or surety with respect to the execution of the trust created hereby or the powers granted hereunder.

(p)      Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any duty to conduct any affirmative investigation as to the occurrence of any condition requiring the repurchase of any Mortgage Loan by the Seller pursuant to this Indenture or the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, as applicable, or the eligibility of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of this Indenture.

(q)      The Indenture Trustee shall not be deemed to have notice or actual knowledge of any Default or Event of Default unless actually known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee or written notice thereof (making reference to this Indenture or the Notes) is received by the Indenture Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office.

Section 6.03     Individual Rights of Indenture Trustee.  The Indenture Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of Notes and may otherwise deal with the Issuer or its Affiliates with the same rights it would have if it were not Indenture Trustee, subject to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act. Any Note Registrar, co-registrar or co-paying agent may do the same with like rights. However, the Indenture Trustee must comply with Section 6.12 hereof.

Section 6.05     Indenture Trustee’s and Securities Administrator’s Disclaimer.  Neither the Indenture Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be responsible for and makes no representation as to the validity or adequacy of this Indenture, the Notes or any other Basic Document, it shall not be accountable for the Issuer’s use of the proceeds from the Notes, and it shall not be responsible for any statement of the Issuer in the Indenture or in any document issued in connection with the sale of the Notes or in the Notes other than the Securities Administrator’s certificate of authentication.

Section 6.06     Notice of Event of Default.  Subject to Section 5.01, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly mail to each Noteholder notice of the Event of Default after it is known to a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee, unless such Event of Default shall have been waived or cured. Except in the case of an Event of Default in payment of principal of or interest on any Note, the Indenture Trustee may withhold the notice if and so long as a committee of its Responsible Officers in good faith determines that withholding the notice is in the best interests of Noteholders.

	
            Section 6.07
 	
            Reports to Holders and Tax Administration.
 

The Securities Administrator shall deliver to each Noteholder such information as may be required and such other customary information as the Securities Administrator may determine and/or be required by the Internal Revenue Service or by a federal or state law or rules or regulations to enable such holder to prepare its federal and state income tax returns.

The Securities Administrator shall prepare and file (or cause to be prepared and filed), on behalf of the Owner Trustee, all tax returns (if any) and information reports, tax elections and such annual or other reports of the Issuer as are necessary for preparation of tax returns and information reports as provided in Section 5.03 of the Trust Agreement, including without limitation Form 1099.  All tax returns and information reports shall be signed by the Owner Trustee or to the extent permitted by law, the Securities Administrator as provided in Section 5.03 of the Trust Agreement.

Section 6.08     Compensation.  An annual fee shall be paid to the Indenture Trustee by the Master Servicer pursuant to a separate agreement between the Indenture Trustee and the Master Servicer.  In addition, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator will each be entitled to recover from the Payment Account pursuant to Section 3.25 of this Indenture all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses, disbursements and advances and the expenses of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, respectively, in connection with any breach of this Indenture or any claim or legal action (including any pending or threatened claim or legal action) or otherwise incurred or made by the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, respectively, in the administration of the trusts hereunder (including the
reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of its counsel) except any such expense, disbursement or advance as may arise from its own negligence or intentional misconduct or which is the responsibility of the Noteholders as provided herein.  Such compensation and reimbursement obligation shall not be limited by any provision of law in regard to the compensation of a trustee of an express trust.  Additionally, each of the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall be indemnified by the Trust and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable attorney's fees and expenses) incurred in the 

 

administration of this Indenture (other than its ordinary out of pocket expenses incurred hereunder) or in connection with any claim or legal action relating to (a) the Basic Documents or (b) the Notes, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its own negligence or intentional misconduct, or which is the responsibility of the Noteholders as provided herein.

The Issuer's payment obligations to the Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator pursuant to this Section 6.08 shall survive the discharge of this Indenture and the termination or resignation of the Indenture Trustee or Securities Administrator.  When the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator incurs expenses after the occurrence of an Event of Default with respect to the Issuer, the expenses are intended to constitute expenses of administration under Title 11 of the United States Code or any other applicable federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law.

Section 6.09     Replacement of Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator.  No resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator and no appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee or a successor Securities Administrator shall become effective until the acceptance of appointment by the successor Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.09. The Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator may resign at any time by so notifying the Issuer. In the event that the Indenture Trustee determines that a conflict of interest exists between the Holders of the Class A Notes and the Holders of any Class of Subordinate Notes, then the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to resign as the indenture trustee for all Classes of Notes other than the Class A Notes.  In such event the
Holders of a majority of Note Principal Balances of all of the Subordinate Notes shall designate a separate indenture trustee to represent their interests hereunder.  Holders of a majority of Note Principal Balances of each Class of Notes may remove the Indenture Trustee by so notifying the Indenture Trustee and may appoint a successor Indenture Trustee. The Issuer shall remove the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, if:

(i)         the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator fails to comply with or qualify pursuant to the provisions of Section 6.12 hereof;

(ii)         the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator is adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent;

(iii)        a receiver or other public officer takes charge of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator or its property;

(iv)        the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator otherwise becomes incapable of acting; or

(v)        the Master Servicer is terminated pursuant to Section 5.01 of the Servicing Agreement.

If the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator resigns or is removed or if a vacancy exists in the office of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator for any reason (the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator in such event being referred to herein as the retiring Indenture Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator ), the Issuer shall promptly appoint a successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator.

 

 

Each of a successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator shall deliver a written acceptance of its appointment to the retiring Indenture Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator, as applicable, and to the Issuer.  Thereupon, the resignation or removal of the retiring Indenture Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator shall become effective, and the successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator shall have all the rights, powers and duties of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, under this Indenture.  The successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator shall each mail a notice of its succession to Noteholders.  The retiring Indenture Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator shall promptly transfer all property held by it as Indenture Trustee or Securities Administrator, as
applicable, to the successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator.

If a successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator does not take office within 60 days after the retiring Indenture Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator, as applicable, resigns or is removed, the retiring Indenture Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator, the Issuer or the Holders of a majority of Note Principal Balances of the Notes may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator.

Notwithstanding the replacement of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator pursuant to this Section, the Issuer's obligations under Section 6.07 shall continue for the benefit of the retiring Indenture Trustee or the retiring Securities Administrator.

Section 6.10     Successor Indenture Trustee and Securities Administrator by Merger.  If the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator consolidates with, merges or converts into, or transfers all or substantially all of its corporate trust business or assets to, another corporation or banking association, the resulting, surviving or transferee corporation, without any further act, shall be the successor Indenture Trustee or successor Securities Administrator, as applicable; provided, that such corporation or banking association shall be otherwise qualified and eligible under Section 6.12 hereof. The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall provide the Rating Agencies and the Issuer with prior written notice, and the Noteholders with prompt written notice, of any such transaction.

If at the time such successor or successors by merger, conversion or consolidation to the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to the trusts created by this Indenture and any of the Notes shall have been authenticated but not delivered, any such successor to the Indenture Trustee may adopt the certificate of authentication of any predecessor trustee and deliver such Notes so authenticated; and if at that time any of the Notes shall not have been authenticated, any successor to the Indenture Trustee may authenticate such Notes either in the name of any predecessor hereunder or in the name of the successor to the Indenture Trustee; and in all such cases such certificates shall have the full force which is in the Notes or in this Indenture provided that the certificate of the Indenture Trustee shall have.

Section 6.11     Appointment of Co-Indenture Trustee or Separate Indenture Trustee.  (a)  Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Indenture, at any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirement of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Estate may at the time be located, the Indenture Trustee shall have the power and may execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons to act as a co-trustee or co-trustees, or separate trustee or separate 

 

trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Estate, and to vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Noteholders, such title to the Trust Estate, or any part hereof, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Indenture Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 6.12 hereof.

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

(i)         all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Indenture Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Indenture Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Indenture Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed the Indenture Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Estate or any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the
direction of the Indenture Trustee;

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

(iii)        the Indenture Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

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

(d)      Any separate trustee or co-trustee may at any time constitute the Indenture Trustee, its agent or attorney-in-fact with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Indenture 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 Indenture Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

Section 6.12     Eligibility; Disqualification.  The Indenture Trustee shall at all times be an entity that meets the requirements of Section 3(c)(3) under the Investment Company Act of 1940 

 

applicable to a trustee, and shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000 as set forth in its most recent published annual report of condition and it or its parent shall have a long-term debt rating of Baa3 or better by Moody’s.

The aggregate redemption price (the “Redemption Price”) for the Notes will be equal to 100% of the aggregate outstanding Note Principal Balance of the Notes as of the Payment Date on which the proposed redemption will take place in
accordance with the foregoing, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the applicable Note Interest Rate through such Payment Date (including any related Net Interest Shortfall, Basis Risk Shortfall Carryover Amount), plus an amount sufficient to pay in full all amounts owing to the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator, pursuant to any Basic Document (which amounts shall be specified in writing upon request of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator, as applicable).

(b)      In order to exercise the foregoing option, the Majority Certificateholder shall provide written notice of its exercise of such option to the Securities Administrator, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee and the Master Servicer at least 15 days prior to its exercise. Following receipt of the notice, the Securities Administrator shall provide written notice to the Noteholders of the final payment on the Notes. In addition, the Majority Certificateholder shall, not less than one Business Day prior to the proposed Payment Date on which such redemption is to be made, deposit the Redemption Price specified in (a) above with the Securities Administrator, who shall deposit the Redemption Price into the Payment Account and shall, on the Payment Date after receipt of the funds, apply such funds to make final payments of principal and interest on
the Notes in accordance with Section 3.03 hereof and payment to the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer as set forth in (a) above, and this Indenture shall be discharged subject to the provisions of Section 4.10 hereof. If for any reason the amount deposited by the Majority Certificateholder is not sufficient to make such redemption or such redemption cannot be completed for any reason, (a) the amount so deposited by the Majority Certificateholder with the Securities Administrator shall be immediately returned to the Majority Certificateholder in full and shall not be used for any other purpose or be deemed to be part of the Trust Estate and (b) the Note Principal Balance of the Notes shall continue to bear interest at the related Note Interest Rate.

SUPPLEMENTAL INDENTURES

Section 9.01     Supplemental Indentures Without Consent of Noteholders.  (a)  Without the consent of the Holders of any Notes but with prior notice to the Rating Agencies, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, when authorized by an Issuer Request, at any time and from time to time, may enter into one or more indentures supplemental hereto, in form satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, for any of the following purposes:

(i)         to correct or amplify the description of any property at any time subject to the lien of this Indenture, or better to assure, convey and confirm unto the Indenture Trustee any property subject or required to be subjected to the lien of this Indenture, or to subject to the lien of this Indenture additional property;

(ii)         to evidence the succession, in compliance with the applicable provisions hereof, of another person to the Issuer, and the assumption by any such successor of the covenants of the Issuer herein and in the Notes contained;

(iii)        to add to the covenants of the Issuer, for the benefit of the Holders of the Notes, or to surrender any right or power herein conferred upon the Issuer;

(iv)        to convey, transfer, assign, mortgage or pledge any property to or with the Indenture Trustee;

(v)        to cure any ambiguity, to correct or supplement any provision herein or in any supplemental indenture that may be inconsistent with any other provision herein or in any supplemental indenture;

(vi)        to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Indenture or in any supplemental indenture; provided, that such action shall not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Notes; provided further, that such supplemental indenture will be deemed to not materially and adversely affect the interests of the Holders of the Notes if a Rating Confirmation is received with respect to such supplemental indenture; or

(vii)       to evidence and provide for the acceptance of the appointment hereunder by a successor trustee with respect to the Notes and to add to or change any of the provisions of this Indenture as shall be necessary to facilitate the administration of the trusts hereunder by more than one trustee, pursuant to the requirements of Article VI hereof;

provided, however, that no such indenture supplements shall be entered into unless the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall have received an Opinion of Counsel not at the expense of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator as to the enforceability of any such indenture supplement and to the effect that (i) such indenture supplement is permitted hereunder and will not materially and adversely affect the Holders of the Notes and (ii) entering into such indenture supplement will not result in a “substantial modification” of the Class I-A-1, Class I-A-2, Class II-A-1 and Class II-A-2 and any other Classes of Notes with respect to which 

 

a "will be debt" opinion has been rendered by nationally recognized tax counsel and furnished to the Securities Administrator under Treasury Regulation Section 1.1001-3 or adversely affect the indebtedness status of such Notes.  

The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator are hereby authorized to join in the execution of any such supplemental indenture and to make any further appropriate agreements and stipulations that may be therein contained.

(b)      The Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Request, in the case of the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee may, also without the consent of any of the Holders of the Notes and prior notice to the Rating Agency, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this Indenture; provided, however, that such action as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, (i) is permitted by this Indenture, (ii) shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Noteholder and (iii) shall not cause the Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax for federal
income tax purposes.

Section 9.02    Supplemental Indentures With Consent of Noteholders.  The Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, when authorized by an Issuer Request in the case of the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, also may, with prior notice to the Rating Agencies and, with the consent Holders of not less than a majority of the Note Principal Balance of each Class of Notes affected thereby, by Act (as defined in Section 10.03 hereof) of such Holders delivered to the Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee, enter into an indenture or indentures supplemental hereto for the purpose of adding any provisions to, or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of, this Indenture or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of the Notes under this
Indenture; provided, however, that no such supplemental indenture shall, without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby:

(i)         change the date of payment of any installment of principal of or interest on any Note, or reduce the principal amount thereof or the interest rate thereon, change the provisions of this Indenture relating to the application of collections on, or the proceeds of the sale of, the Trust Estate and to payment of principal of or interest on the Notes, or change any place of payment where, or the coin or currency in which, any Note or the interest thereon is payable, or impair the right to institute suit for the enforcement of the provisions of this Indenture requiring the application of funds available therefor, as provided in Article V, to the payment of any such amount due on the Notes on or after the respective due dates thereof;

(ii)         reduce the percentage of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes, or any Class of Notes, the consent of the Holders of which is required for any such supplemental indenture, or the consent of the Holders of which is required for any waiver of compliance with certain provisions of this Indenture or certain defaults hereunder and their consequences provided for in this Indenture;

(iii)        modify or alter the provisions of the proviso to the definition of the term “Outstanding” or modify or alter the exception in the definition of the term “Holder”

 

 

(iv)        reduce the percentage of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes, or any Class of Notes, required to direct the Indenture Trustee to direct the Issuer to sell or liquidate the Trust Estate pursuant to Section 5.04 hereof;

(v)        modify any provision of this Section 9.02 except to increase any percentage specified herein or to provide that certain additional provisions of this Indenture or the Basic Documents cannot be modified or waived without the consent of the Holder of each Note affected thereby;

(vi)        modify any of the provisions of this Indenture in such manner as to affect the calculation of the amount of any payment of interest or principal due on any Note on any Payment Date (including the calculation of any of the individual components of such calculation); or

(vii)       permit the creation of any lien ranking prior to or on a parity with the lien of this Indenture with respect to any part of the Trust Estate or, except as otherwise permitted or contemplated herein, terminate the lien of this Indenture on any property at any time subject hereto or deprive the Holder of any Note of the security provided by the lien of this Indenture; 

and provided, further, that such action shall not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, cause the Issuer to be subject to an entity level tax for federal income tax purposes.

Any such action shall not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Holder (other than a Holder who shall consent to such supplemental indenture) as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel (provided by the Person requesting such supplemental indenture) delivered to the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator.

It shall not be necessary for any Act of Noteholders under this Section 9.02 to approve the particular form of any proposed supplemental indenture, but it shall be sufficient if such Act shall approve the substance thereof.

Promptly after the execution by the Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Section 9.02, the Securities Administrator shall mail to the Holders of the Notes to which such amendment or supplemental indenture relates a notice setting forth in general terms the substance of such supplemental indenture. Any failure of the Securities Administrator to mail such notice, or any defect therein, shall not, however, in any way impair or affect the validity of any such supplemental indenture.

Section 9.03     Execution of Supplemental Indentures.  In executing, or permitting the additional trusts created by, any supplemental indenture permitted by this Article IX or the modification thereby of the trusts created by this Indenture, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to receive, and subject to Sections 6.01 and 6.02 hereof, shall be fully protected in relying upon, an Opinion of Counsel not at the expense of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator stating that the execution of such supplemental indenture is authorized or permitted by this Indenture. The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator each may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such supplemental indenture that affects the Indenture Trustee’s or the Securities
Administrator’s own rights, duties, liabilities or immunities under this Indenture or otherwise.

 

 

Section 9.04     Effect of Supplemental Indenture.  Upon the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to the provisions hereof, this Indenture shall be and shall be deemed to be modified and amended in accordance therewith with respect to the Notes affected thereby, and the respective rights, limitations of rights, obligations, duties, liabilities and immunities under this Indenture of the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Issuer and the Holders of the Notes shall thereafter be determined, exercised and enforced hereunder subject in all respects to such modifications and amendments, and all the terms and conditions of any such supplemental indenture shall be and be deemed to be part of the terms and conditions of this Indenture for any and all purposes.

Section 9.05     Conformity with Trust Indenture Act.  Every amendment of this Indenture and every supplemental indenture executed pursuant to this Article IX shall conform to the requirements of the Trust Indenture Act as then in effect so long as this Indenture shall then be qualified under the Trust Indenture Act.

Section 9.06     Reference in Notes to Supplemental Indentures.  Notes authenticated and delivered after the execution of any supplemental indenture pursuant to this Article IX may, and if required by the Securities Administrator shall, bear a notation in form approved by the Securities Administrator as to any matter provided for in such supplemental indenture. If the Issuer or the Securities Administrator shall so determine, new Notes so modified as to conform, in the opinion of the Securities Administrator and the Issuer, to any such supplemental indenture may be prepared and executed by the Issuer and authenticated and delivered by the Securities Administrator in exchange for Outstanding Notes.

MISCELLANEOUS

Section 10.01   Compliance Certificates and Opinions, etc.  (a)  Upon any application or request by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee to take any action under any provision of this Indenture, the Issuer shall furnish to the Indenture Trustee (i) an Officer’s Certificate stating that all conditions precedent, if any, provided for in this Indenture relating to the proposed action have been complied with and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel stating that in the opinion of such counsel all such conditions precedent, if any, have been complied with, except that, in the case of any such application or request as to which the furnishing of such documents is specifically required by any provision of this Indenture, no additional certificate or opinion need be furnished.

Every certificate or opinion with respect to compliance with a condition or covenant provided for in this Indenture shall include:

(1)        a statement that each signatory of such certificate or opinion has read or has caused to be read such covenant or condition and the definitions herein relating thereto;

(2)        a brief statement as to the nature and scope of the examination or investigation upon which the statements or opinions contained in such certificate or opinion are based;

(3)        a statement that, in the opinion of each such signatory, such signatory has made such examination or investigation as is necessary to enable such signatory to express an informed opinion as to whether or not such covenant or condition has been complied with;

(4)        a statement as to whether, in the opinion of each such signatory, such condition or covenant has been complied with; and

(5)        if the signatory of such certificate or opinion is required to be Independent, the statement required by the definition of the term “Independent”.

(b)      (i) Prior to the deposit of any Collateral or other property or securities with the Indenture Trustee that is to be made the basis for the release of any property or securities subject to the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall, in addition to any obligation imposed in Section 10.01 (a) or elsewhere in this Indenture, furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days prior to such deposit) to the Issuer of the Collateral or other property or securities to be so deposited and a report from a nationally recognized accounting firm verifying such value.

(ii)         Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (i) above, the Issuer shall also deliver to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate from a nationally recognized accounting firm as to the same matters, if 

 

the fair value of the securities to be so deposited and of all other such securities made the basis of any such withdrawal or release since the commencement of the then current fiscal year of the Issuer, as set forth in the certificates delivered pursuant to clause (i) above and this clause (ii), is 10% or more of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes, but such a certificate need not be furnished with respect to any securities so deposited, if the fair value thereof as set forth in the related Officer’s Certificate is less than $25,000 or less than one percent of the then outstanding Note Principal Balances of the Notes.

(iii)        Whenever any property or securities are to be released from the lien of this Indenture, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of each person signing such certificate as to the fair value (within 90 days prior to such release) of the property or securities proposed to be released and stating that in the opinion of such person the proposed release will not impair the security under this Indenture in contravention of the provisions hereof.

(iv)        Whenever the Issuer is required to furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate certifying or stating the opinion of any signer thereof as to the matters described in clause (iii) above, the Issuer shall also furnish to the Indenture Trustee an Independent Certificate as to the same matters if the fair value of the property or securities and of all other property or securities released from the lien of this Indenture since the commencement of the then-current calendar year, as set forth in the certificates required by clause (iii) above and this clause (iv), equals 10% or more of the Note Principal Balances of the Notes, but such certificate need not be furnished in the case of any release of property or securities if the fair value thereof as set forth in the related Officer’s Certificate is less than $25,000 or
less than one percent of the then outstanding Note Principal Balances of the Notes.

Section 10.02   Form of Documents Delivered to Indenture Trustee.  In any case where several matters are required to be certified by, or covered by an opinion of, any specified Person, it is not necessary that all such matters be certified by, or covered by the opinion of, only one such Person, or that they be so certified or covered by only one document, but one such Person may certify or give an opinion with respect to some matters and one or more other such Persons as to other matters, and any such Person may certify or give an opinion as to such matters in one or several documents.

Any certificate or opinion of an Authorized Officer of the Issuer may be based, insofar as it relates to legal matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, counsel, unless such officer knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to the matters upon which his certificate or opinion is based are erroneous. Any such certificate of an Authorized Officer or Opinion of Counsel may be based, insofar as it relates to factual matters, upon a certificate or opinion of, or representations by, an officer or officers of the Seller or the Issuer, stating that the information with respect to such factual matters is in the possession of the Seller or the Issuer, unless such counsel knows, or in the exercise of reasonable care should know, that the certificate or opinion or representations with respect to
such matters are erroneous.

Where any Person is required to make, give or execute two or more applications, requests, consents, certificates, statements, opinions or other instruments under this Indenture, they may, but need not, be consolidated and form one instrument.

 

 

Whenever in this Indenture, in connection with any application or certificate or report to the Indenture Trustee, it is provided that the Issuer shall deliver any document as a condition of the granting of such application, or as evidence of the Issuer’s compliance with any term hereof, it is intended that the truth and accuracy, at the time of the granting of such application or at the effective date of such certificate or report (as the case may be), of the facts and opinions stated in such document shall in such case be conditions precedent to the right of the Issuer to have such application granted or to the sufficiency of such certificate or report. The foregoing shall not, however, be construed to affect the Indenture Trustee’s right to rely upon the truth and accuracy of any statement or opinion contained in any such document as provided in Article VI.

Section 10.03   Acts of Noteholders.  (a)  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or other action provided by this Indenture to be given or taken by Noteholders may be embodied in and evidenced by one or more instruments of substantially similar tenor signed by such Noteholders in person or by agents duly appointed in writing; and except as herein otherwise expressly provided, such action shall become effective when such instrument or instruments are delivered to the Indenture Trustee, and, where it is hereby expressly required, to the Issuer. Such instrument or instruments (and the action embodied therein and evidenced thereby) are herein sometimes referred to as the “Act” of the Noteholders signing such instrument or instruments. Proof of execution of any such instrument or of a
writing appointing any such agent shall be sufficient for any purpose of this Indenture and (subject to Section 6.01 hereof) conclusive in favor of the Indenture Trustee and the Issuer, if made in the manner provided in this Section 10.03 hereof.

(b)      The fact and date of the execution by any person of any such instrument or writing may be proved in any manner that the Indenture Trustee deems sufficient.

	
            (c)
 	
            The ownership of Notes shall be proved by the Note Registrar.
 

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

Section 10.04   Notices etc., to Indenture Trustee Issuer, Securities Administrator and Rating Agencies.  Any request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or Act of Noteholders or other documents provided or permitted by this Indenture shall be in writing and if such request, demand, authorization, direction, notice, consent, waiver or act of Noteholders is to be made upon, given or furnished to or filed with:

(i)         the Indenture Trustee by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Indenture Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office. The Indenture Trustee shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Issuer; 

(ii)         the Securities Administrator by any Noteholder or by the Issuer shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing to or with the Securities Administrator at Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., P.O. Box 98, Columbia Maryland 21046 

 

(or, in the case of overnight deliveries, 9062 Old Annapolis Road, Columbia, Maryland 21045), Attn: Bear Stearns ARM Trust 2005-7, or such other address as may hereafter be furnished to the other parties hereto in writing. The Securities Administrator shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Issuer; or

(iii)        the Issuer by the Indenture Trustee or by any Noteholder shall be sufficient for every purpose hereunder if made, given, furnished or filed in writing and mailed first-class, postage prepaid to the Issuer addressed to: Bear Stearns ARM 2005-7, in care of Chase Bank USA, National Association, 500 Stanton Christiana Road, FL3/OPS4, Newark, Delaware 19713, Attention: Worldwide Securities Services, or at any other address previously furnished in writing to the Indenture Trustee by the Issuer. The Issuer shall promptly transmit any notice received by it from the Noteholders to the Indenture Trustee.

Notices required to be given to the Rating Agencies by the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Owner Trustee shall be in writing, mailed first-class postage pre-paid: in the case of Moody’s, to Moody’s, at the following address: Moody's Investors Service, Inc., 99 Church Street, New York, New York 10007; and in the case of S&P, Standard & Poor's, a division of The McGraw-Hill Companies, Inc., 55 Water Street, New York, New York 10041; or as to each of the foregoing, at such other address as shall be designated by written notice to the other parties.

Section 10.05   Notices to Noteholders; Waiver.  Where this Indenture provides for notice to Noteholders of any event, such notice shall be sufficiently given (unless otherwise herein expressly provided) if made, given, furnished or filed in writing and mailed, first-class, postage prepaid to each Noteholder affected by such event, at such Person’s address as it appears on the Note Register, not later than the latest date, and not earlier than the earliest date, prescribed for the giving of such notice. In any case where notice to Noteholders is given by mail, neither the failure to mail such notice nor any defect in any notice so mailed to any particular Noteholder shall affect the sufficiency of such notice with respect to other Noteholders, and any notice that is mailed in the manner herein provided shall conclusively
be presumed to have been duly given regardless of whether such notice is in fact actually received.

Where this Indenture provides for notice in any manner, such notice may be waived in writing by any Person entitled to receive such notice, either before or after the event, and such waiver shall be the equivalent of such notice. Waivers of notice by Noteholders shall be filed with the Indenture Trustee but such filing shall not be a condition precedent to the validity of any action taken in reliance upon such a waiver.

In case, by reason of the suspension of regular mail service as a result of a strike, work stoppage or similar activity, it shall be impractical to mail notice of any event to Noteholders when such notice is required to be given pursuant to any provision of this Indenture, then any manner of giving such notice as shall be satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee shall be deemed to be a sufficient giving of such notice.

Where this Indenture provides for notice to the Rating Agency, failure to give such notice shall not affect any other rights or obligations created hereunder, and shall not under any circumstance constitute an Event of Default.

 

 

Section 10.06   Conflict with Trust Indenture Act.  If any provision hereof limits, qualifies or conflicts with another provision hereof that is required to be included in this Indenture by any of the provisions of the Trust Indenture Act, such required provision shall control.

The provisions of TIA §§ 310 through 317 that impose duties on any Person (including the provisions automatically deemed included herein unless expressly excluded by this Indenture) are a part of and govern this Indenture, whether or not physically contained herein.

Section 10.07   Effect of Headings.  The Article and Section headings herein are for convenience only and shall not affect the construction hereof.

Section 10.08   Successors and Assigns.  All covenants and agreements in this Indenture and the Notes by the Issuer shall bind its successors and assigns, whether so expressed or not. All agreements of the Indenture Trustee in this Indenture shall bind its successors, co-trustees and agents.

Section 10.09   Separability.  In case any provision in this Indenture or in the Notes shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, the validity, legality, and enforceability of the remaining provisions shall not in any way be affected or impaired thereby.

Section 10.10   Legal Holidays.  In any case where the date on which any payment is due shall not be a Business Day, then (notwithstanding any other provision of the Notes or this Indenture) payment need not be made on such date, but may be made on the next succeeding Business Day with the same force and effect as if made on the date on which nominally due, and no interest shall accrue for the period from and after any such nominal date.

Section 10.11   GOVERNING LAW.  THIS INDENTURE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5-1402 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAWS, WHICH SHALL APPLY HERETO), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

Section 10.12   Counterparts.  This Indenture may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all such counterparts shall together constitute but one and the same instrument.

Section 10.13   Recording of Indenture.  If this Indenture is subject to recording in any appropriate public recording offices, such recording is to be effected by the Issuer and at its expense accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel at its expense (which may be counsel to the Indenture Trustee or any other counsel reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) to the effect that such recording is necessary either for the protection of the Noteholders or any other Person secured hereunder or for the enforcement of any right or remedy granted to the Indenture Trustee under this Indenture.

Section 10.14   Issuer Obligation.  No recourse may be taken, directly or indirectly, with respect to the obligations of the Issuer, the Owner Trustee or the Securities Administrator on the Notes or under this Indenture or any certificate or other writing delivered in connection herewith 

 

or therewith, against (i) the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, (ii) any owner of a beneficial interest in the Issuer or (iii) any partner, owner, beneficiary, agent, officer, director, employee or agent of the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, any holder of a beneficial interest in the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee or of any successor or assign of the Indenture Trustee or the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, except as any such Person may have expressly agreed (it being understood that the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee have no such obligations in their individual capacity) and except that any such partner, owner or beneficiary shall be fully liable, to the extent provided by applicable law, for any unpaid consideration for stock, unpaid capital contribution or failure
to pay any installment or call owing to such entity. For all purposes of this Indenture, in the performance of any duties or obligations of the Issuer hereunder, the Owner Trustee shall be subject to, and entitled to the benefits of, the terms and provisions of Article VI, VII and VIII of the Trust Agreement.

Section 10.15   No Petition.  The Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, by entering into this Indenture, each Noteholder, by accepting a Note and each Certificateholder, by accepting a Certificate, hereby covenant and agree that they will not at any time prior to one year from the date of termination hereof, institute against the Depositor or the Issuer, or join in any institution against the Depositor or the Issuer of, any bankruptcy, reorganization, arrangement, insolvency or liquidation proceedings, or other proceedings under any United States federal or state bankruptcy or similar law in connection with any obligations relating to the Notes, this Indenture or any of the Basic Documents; provided however, that nothing herein shall prohibit the Indenture Trustee from filing proofs of claim in any proceeding.

Section 10.16   Inspection.  The Issuer agrees that, at its expense, on reasonable prior notice, it shall permit any representative of the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator, during the Issuer’s normal business hours, to examine all the books of account, records, reports and other papers of the Issuer, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by Independent certified public accountants, and to discuss the Issuer’s affairs, finances and accounts with the Issuer’s officers, employees, and Independent certified public accountants, all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested. The Indenture Trustee shall cause its representatives to hold in confidence all such information except to the extent disclosure may be required by law (and all
reasonable applications for confidential treatment are unavailing) and except to the extent that the Indenture Trustee or the Securities Administrator may reasonably determine that such disclosure is consistent with its obligations hereunder.

 

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee have caused their names to be signed hereto by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized, all as of the day and year first above written.

BEAR STEARNS ARM TRUST 2005-7 (the “Issuer”), a Delaware statutory trust, for value received, hereby promises to pay to Cede & Co. or registered assigns, the principal sum of $[____________________] in monthly installments on the twenty-fifth day of each month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day (each a “Payment Date”), commencing in August 2005 and ending on or before the Payment Date occurring in [__________ 20___] (the “Final Scheduled Payment Date”) and to pay interest on the Note Principal Balance of this Note (this “Note”) outstanding from time to time as provided below.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuer’s Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2005-7 (the “Notes”), issued under an Indenture dated as of July 29, 2005 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Securities Administrator and U.S. Bank National Association, as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”, which term includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture) to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, and the Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are to be authenticated and delivered. All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Payments of principal and interest on this Note will be made on each Payment Date to the Noteholder of record as of the related Record Date. The “Note Principal Balance” of a Note as of any date of determination is equal to the initial Note Principal Balance thereof, minus (i) all amounts distributed in respect of principal with respect to such Class of Notes and (ii) the aggregate amount of any reductions in the Note Principal Balance thereof deemed to have occurred in connection with allocations of Realized Losses on all prior Payment Dates in accordance with the Indenture, taking account of its applicable Loss Allocation Limitation, plus (iii) any Subsequent Recoveries allocated thereto.

The principal of, and interest on, this Note are due and payable as described in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall be equal to this Note’s pro rata share of the aggregate payments on all Class [I][II]-A-[1][2] Notes as described above, and shall be applied as between interest and principal as provided in the Indenture.

 

 

All principal and interest accrued on the Notes, if not previously paid, will become finally due and payable at the Final Scheduled Payment Date.

The Mortgage Loans are subject to purchase in whole, but not in part, by the Majority Certificateholder on any  Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the prior Due Period and the Remaining Pre-Funded Amount is 10% or less of the sum of (A) the Cut-off Date Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and (B) the aggregate of the Pre-Funded Amounts in Loan Group I and Loan Group II as of the Closing Date.

The Issuer shall not be liable upon the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes except to the extent of amounts available from the Trust Estate which constitutes security for the payment of the Notes. The assets included in the Trust Estate will be the sole source of payments on the Class [I][II]-A-[1][2] Notes, and each Holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that (i) such Note will be limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Estate as provided in the Indenture and (ii) such Holder shall have no recourse to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or any of their respective affiliates, or to the assets of any of the foregoing entities, except the assets of the Issuer pledged to secure the Class [I][II]-A-[1][2] Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the rights conveyed
to the Issuer under the Indenture.

Any payment of principal or interest payable on this Note which is punctually paid on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Payment Date by check mailed to such person’s address as it appears in the Note Register on such Record Date, except for the final installment of principal and interest payable with respect to such Note, which shall be payable as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request with appropriate instructions by the Holder of this Note delivered to the Securities Administrator at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date, any payment of principal or interest, other than the final installment of principal or interest, shall be made by wire transfer to an account in the United States designated by such Holder. All reductions in the
principal amount of a Note effected by payments of principal made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all Holders of this Note and of any Note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note. The final payment of this Note shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof on or after the Payment Date thereof at the office designated by the Securities Administrator or the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by it for such purpose pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Indenture.

Subject to the foregoing provisions, each Note delivered under the Indenture, upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note, shall carry the right to unpaid principal and interest that were carried by such other Note.

If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture shall occur and be continuing with respect to the Notes, the Notes may become or be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If any such acceleration of maturity occurs prior to the payment of the entire unpaid Note Principal Balance of the Notes, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note will be equal to the sum of the unpaid Note Principal Balance of this Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon as described in the Indenture. The Indenture 

 

provides that, notwithstanding the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, under certain circumstances specified therein, all amounts collected as proceeds of the Trust Estate securing the Notes or otherwise shall continue to be applied to payments of principal of and interest on the Notes as if they had not been declared due and payable.

The failure to pay any Net Interest Shortfall at any time when funds are not available to make such payment as provided in the Indenture shall not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.

The Holder of this Note or Beneficial Owner of any interest herein is deemed to represent that either (1) it is not acquiring the Note with Plan Assets or (2) (A) the acquisition, holding and transfer of a Note will not give rise to a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and (B) the Notes are rated investment grade or better and such person believes that the Notes are properly treated as indebtedness without substantial equity features for purposes of the DOL Regulations, and agrees to so treat the Notes. Alternatively, regardless of the rating of the Notes, such person may provide the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar with an opinion of counsel, which opinion of counsel will not be at the expense of the Issuer, the Seller, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Note
Registrar or any servicer, which opines that the acquisition, holding and transfer of such Note or interest therein is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Issuer, the Seller, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any servicer to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture and the other Basic Documents.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register of the Issuer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of, or presentation of a written instrument of transfer for, this Note at the office or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, accompanied by proper instruments of assignment in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate then outstanding Note Principal Balance, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner of such Note (i) on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of making payments and interest of such Note, and (ii) on any other date for all other purposes whatsoever, as the owner hereof, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Indenture Trustee nor any such agent of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Holders of a majority of each Class of Notes affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of 

 

the Notes, to waive any past Event of Default and its consequences except an Event of Default (a) with respect to payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes, or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note. Any such waiver by the Holder, at the time of the giving thereof, of this Note (or any one or more predecessor Notes) shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon such Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, following prior notice to the Rating Agencies, to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

Initially, the Notes will be registered in the name of Cede & Co. as nominee of DTC, acting in its capacity as the Depository for the Notes. The Notes will be delivered by the clearing agency in denominations as provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth.

BEAR STEARNS ARM TRUST 2005-7 (the “Issuer”), a Delaware statutory trust, for value received, hereby promises to pay to Bear, Stearns Securities Corp. or registered assigns, interest hereon in monthly installments on the twenty-fifth day of each month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day (each a “Payment Date”), commencing in August 2005 and ending on or before the Payment Date occurring in August 2035 (the “Final Scheduled Payment Date”) and to pay interest on the Notional Amount of this Note (this “Note”) outstanding from time to time as provided below.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuer's Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2005-7 (the “Notes”), issued under an Indenture, dated as of July 29, 2005 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as securities administrator and U.S. Bank National Association as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”, which term includes any successor Indenture Trustee under the Indenture), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are to be authenticated and delivered. All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Payments of interest on this Note will be made on each Payment Date to the Noteholder of record as of the related Record Date. The “Notional Amount” of this Note as of any date of determination shall be calculated as set forth under the Indenture.

The interest on this Note are due and payable as described in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall be applied as provided in the Indenture.

The Mortgage Loans are subject to purchase in whole, but not in part, by the Majority Certificateholder, on any Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which the sum of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the prior Due Period and the Remaining Pre-Funded Amount is 10% or less of the sum of (A) the Cut-off Date Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and (B) the aggregate of the Pre-Funded Amounts in Loan Group I and Loan Group II as of the Closing Date.

 

 

The Issuer shall not be liable upon the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes except to the extent of amounts available from the Trust Estate which constitutes security for the payment of the Notes. The assets included in the Trust Estate will be the sole source of payments on the Class X Notes, and each Holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that (i) such Note will be limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Estate as provided in the Indenture and (ii) such Holder shall have no recourse to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or any of their respective affiliates, or to the assets of any of the foregoing entities, except the assets of the Issuer pledged to secure the Class X Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the rights conveyed to the Issuer under the Indenture.

Any payment of interest payable on this Note which is punctually paid on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Payment Date by check mailed to such person's address as it appears in the Note Register on such Record Date, except for the final installment of interest payable with respect to such Note, which shall be payable as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request with appropriate instructions by the Holder of this Note delivered to the Securities Administrator at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date, any payment of interest, other than the final installment of interest, shall be made by wire transfer to an account in the United States designated by such Holder. All reductions in the principal amount of a Note (excluding the Class X Notes)
effected by payments of principal made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all Holders of this Note and of any note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note. The final payment of this Note shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof on or after the Payment Date thereof at the Office designated by the Securities Administrator or the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by it for such purpose pursuant to the Indenture.

Subject to the foregoing provisions, each Note delivered under the Indenture, upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note, shall carry the right to unpaid principal (excluding the Class X Notes) and interest that were carried by such other Note.

If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture shall occur and be continuing with respect to the Notes, the Notes may become or be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. The Indenture provides that, notwithstanding the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, under certain circumstances specified therein, all amounts collected as proceeds of the Trust Estate securing the Notes or otherwise shall continue to be applied to payments of principal and interest on the Notes as if they had not been declared due and payable.

The failure to pay Accrued Note Interest on the Class X Notes, shall not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.

No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of this Note or interest herein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws.  If a transfer of this Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection 

 

with the initial issuance thereof or a transfer thereof by the Depositor or one of its Affiliates), then the Note Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless (i) it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C to the Indenture or (ii) it receives a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee and the transferee executes a representation letter substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached to the Indenture, and transferor executes a representation letter substantially in the form of Exhibit E attached to the Indenture, each acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee.  None of the Issuer, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar is obligated to register or qualify
any Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Indenture to permit the transfer of this Note or interest herein without registration or qualification.  Any Noteholder desiring to effect a transfer of this Note or interest herein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Issuer, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

No transfer of this Class X Note or any interest therein shall be made to any Person unless the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar are provided with an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the satisfaction of the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar that the purchase of a Class X Note 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 Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Note Registrar, any Servicer or the Master Servicer to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer, any
Servicer or the Note Registrar. In lieu of such Opinion of Counsel, a Person acquiring a Class X Note may provide a certification in the form attached to the Indenture, which the Indenture Trustee, Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Note Registrar may rely upon without further inquiry or investigation.

No transfer of this Class X Note or any interest therein shall be made to any Person, and the Note Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer, unless (A) a “will be debt” opinion shall have been rendered by nationally recognized tax counsel with respect to it and furnished to the Securities Administrator, or (B) the transferee shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee a certificate certifying that (i) it is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) within the meaning of Section 856(a) of the Code or a qualified REIT subsidiary (“QRS”) within the meaning of Section 856(i) of the Code or an entity disregarded as an entity separate from a REIT or a QRS and (ii) following the transfer, 100% of the Certificates and Class X Notes and Class B Notes (other than any Class X Notes or
Class B Notes with respect to which a “will be debt” opinion has been rendered by nationally recognized tax counsel and furnished to the Securities Administrator) will be owned by a single REIT, directly or indirectly through one or more qualified QRSs of such REIT or one or more entities disregarded as entities separate from such REIT or such QRSs; provided that (x) this Class X Note may be pledged to secure indebtedness and may be the subject of repurchase agreements treated by the Issuer as secured indebtedness for federal income tax purposes, and (y) this Class X Note may be transferred by the related lender under any such related loan agreement or repurchase agreement upon a default under any such indebtedness, in which case the 

 

transferor shall deliver to the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee a certificate certifying to such effect.

 

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register of the Issuer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of, or presentation of a written instrument of transfer for, this Note at the office or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, accompanied by proper instruments of assignment in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate then outstanding Note Principal Balance, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

 

Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner of such Note (i) on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of making payments and interest of such Note, and (ii) on any other date for all other purposes whatsoever, as the owner hereof, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Indenture Trustee nor any such agent of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Holders of a majority of each Class of Notes affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes, to waive any past Event of Default and its consequences except an Event of Default (a) with respect to payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes, or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note. Any such waiver by the Holder, at the time of the giving thereof, of this Note (or any one or more predecessor
Notes) shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon such Note. The Indenture also permits the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, following prior notice to the Rating Agencies, to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

The Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate then outstanding Note Principal Balance or Notional Amount, as applicable, of the Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering same.

Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, neither the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, nor any of its respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees, or successors or assigns, shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal of or 

 

interest on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in this Note, it being expressly understood that said covenants, obligations and indemnifications have been made solely by the Trust to the extent of the assets of the Trust. The holder of this Note by the acceptance hereof agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, the Holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Trust Estate for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in this Note.

AS PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE, THIS NOTE AND THE INDENTURE CREATING THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN.

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

BEAR STEARNS ARM TRUST 2005-7 (the “Issuer”), a Delaware statutory trust, for value received, hereby promises to pay to Bear, Stearns Securities Corp. or registered assigns, the principal sum of $[______] in monthly installments on the twenty-fifth day of each month or, if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day (each a “Payment Date”), commencing in August 2005 and ending on or before the Payment Date occurring in August 2035 (the “Final Scheduled Payment Date”) and to pay interest on the Note Principal Balance of this Note (this “Note”) outstanding from time to time as provided below.

This Note is one of a duly authorized issue of the Issuer's Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2005-7 (the “Notes”), issued under an Indenture, dated as of July 29, 2005 (the “Indenture”), among the Issuer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as securities administrator and U.S. Bank National Association as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”, which term includes any successor Indenture Trustee), to which Indenture and all indentures supplemental thereto reference is hereby made for a statement of the respective rights thereunder of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Holders of the Notes and the terms upon which the Notes are to be authenticated and delivered. All terms used in this Note which are defined in the Indenture shall have the meanings assigned to them in the Indenture.

Payments of principal and interest on this Note will be made on each Payment Date to the Noteholder of record as of the related Record Date. The “Note Principal Balance” of a Note as of any date of determination is equal to the initial Note Principal Balance thereof, minus (i) all amounts distributed in respect of principal with respect to such Class of Notes, (ii) the aggregate amount of any reductions in the Note Principal Balance thereof deemed to have occurred in connection with allocations of Realized Losses on all prior Payment Dates in accordance with the Indenture, taking account of its applicable Loss Allocation Limitation, and (iii) such Class's pro rata share, if any, of the applicable Subordinate Writedown Amount for previous Payment Dates, plus (iv) any Subsequent Recoveries allocated thereto.

The principal of, and interest on, this Note are due and payable as described in the Indenture, in such coin or currency of the United States of America as at the time of payment is legal tender for payment of public and private debts. All payments made by the Issuer with respect to this Note shall be equal to this Note's pro rata share of the aggregate payments on all Class B-[1][2][3][4][5][6] Notes as described above, and shall be applied as between interest and principal as provided in the Indenture.

 

 

All principal and interest accrued on the Notes, if not previously paid, will become finally due and payable at the Final Scheduled Payment Date.

The Mortgage Loans are subject to purchase in whole, but not in part, by the Majority Certificateholder, on any Payment Date on or after the Payment Date on which sum of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the end of the prior Due Period and the Remaining Pre-Funded Amount is 10% or less of the sum of (A) the Cut-off Date Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and (B) the aggregate of the Pre-Funded Amounts in Loan Group I and Loan Group II as of the Closing Date.

The Issuer shall not be liable upon the indebtedness evidenced by the Notes except to the extent of amounts available from the Trust Estate which constitutes security for the payment of the Notes. The assets included in the Trust Estate will be the sole source of payments on the Class B-[1][2][3][4][5][6] Notes, and each Holder hereof, by its acceptance of this Note, agrees that (i) such Note will be limited in right of payment to amounts available from the Trust Estate as provided in the Indenture and (ii) such Holder shall have no recourse to the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or any of their respective affiliates, or to the assets of any of the foregoing entities, except the assets of the Issuer pledged to secure the Class B-[1][2][3][4][5][6] Notes pursuant to the Indenture and the rights
conveyed to the Issuer under the Indenture.

Any payment of principal or interest payable on this Note which is punctually paid on the applicable Payment Date shall be paid to the Person in whose name such Note is registered at the close of business on the Record Date for such Payment Date by check mailed to such person's address as it appears in the Note Register on such Record Date, except for the final installment of principal and interest payable with respect to such Note, which shall be payable as provided below. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon written request with appropriate instructions by the Holder of this Note delivered to the Securities Administrator at least five Business Days prior to the Record Date, any payment of principal or interest, other than the final installment of principal or interest, shall be made by wire transfer to an account in the United States designated by such Holder. All reductions in the
principal amount of a Note effected by payments of principal made on any Payment Date shall be binding upon all Holders of this Note and of any note issued upon the registration of transfer thereof or in exchange therefor or in lieu thereof, whether or not such payment is noted on such Note. The final payment of this Note shall be payable upon presentation and surrender thereof on or after the Payment Date thereof at the Office designated by the Securities Administrator or the office or agency of the Issuer maintained by it for such purpose pursuant to the Indenture.

Subject to the foregoing provisions, each Note delivered under the Indenture, upon registration of transfer of or in exchange for or in lieu of any other Note, shall carry the right to unpaid principal and interest that were carried by such other Note.

If an Event of Default as defined in the Indenture shall occur and be continuing with respect to the Notes, the Notes may become or be declared due and payable in the manner and with the effect provided in the Indenture. If any such acceleration of maturity occurs prior to the payment of the entire unpaid Note Principal Balance of the Notes, the amount payable to the Holder of this Note will be equal to the sum of the unpaid Note Principal Balance of this Note, together with accrued and unpaid interest thereon as described in the Indenture. The Indenture 

 

provides that, notwithstanding the acceleration of the maturity of the Notes, under certain circumstances specified therein, all amounts collected as proceeds of the Trust Estate securing the Notes or otherwise shall continue to be applied to payments of principal of and interest on the Notes as if they had not been declared due and payable.

The failure to pay any Net Interest Shortfall at any time when funds are not available to make such payment as provided in the Indenture shall not constitute an Event of Default under the Indenture.

No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of this Note or interest herein shall be made unless that transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition is exempt from the registration and/or qualification requirements of the Securities Act and any applicable state securities laws, or is otherwise made in accordance with the Securities Act and such state securities laws.  If a transfer of this Note is to be made without registration under the Securities Act (other than in connection with the initial issuance thereof or a transfer thereof by the Depositor or one of its Affiliates), then the Note Registrar shall refuse to register such transfer unless (i) it receives (and upon receipt, may conclusively rely upon) a certificate substantially in the form attached as Exhibit C to the Indenture or (ii) it receives a written Opinion of Counsel acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to
the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee and the transferee executes a representation letter substantially in the form of Exhibit D attached to the Indenture, and transferor executes a representation letter substantially in the form of Exhibit E attached to the Indenture, each acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Note Registrar and the Indenture Trustee.  None of the Issuer, the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee or the Note Registrar is obligated to register or qualify any Notes under the Securities Act or any other securities law or to take any action not otherwise required under the Indenture to permit the transfer of this Note or interest herein without registration or qualification.  Any Noteholder desiring to effect a transfer of this Note or interest herein shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Issuer, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so
exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

No transfer of this Class B-[1][2][3][4][5][6] Note or any interest therein shall be made to any Person unless the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar are provided with an Opinion of Counsel which establishes to the satisfaction of the Indenture Trustee and the Note Registrar that the purchase of a Class B-[1][2][3][4][5][6] Note 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 Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Servicer or the Note Registrar to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in the Indenture, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Master Servicer, any Servicer and the Note Registrar. In lieu of such Opinion of Counsel, a Person acquiring a Class B-1 Note may provide a certification in the form attached to the Indenture, which the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Registrar and the Master Servicer may rely upon without further inquiry or investigation.

No transfer of this Class B-[1][2][3][4][5][6] Note or any interest therein shall be made to any Person, and the Note Registrar shall refuse to register any such transfer, unless (A) a “will be 

 

debt” opinion shall have been rendered by nationally recognized tax counsel with respect to it and furnished to the Securities Administrator, or (B) the transferee shall have delivered to the Owner Trustee, the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator and the Indenture Trustee a certificate certifying that (i) it is a real estate investment trust (“REIT”) within the meaning of Section 856(a) of the Code or a qualified REIT subsidiary (“QRS”) within the meaning of Section 856(i) of the Code or an entity disregarded as an entity separate from a REIT or a QRS and (ii) following the transfer, 100% of the Certificates and Class X Notes and Class B Notes (other than any Class X Notes or Class B Notes with respect to which a “will be debt” opinion has been rendered by nationally recognized tax counsel and furnished to the Securities Administrator) will be owned by a single
REIT, directly or indirectly through one or more qualified QRSs of such REIT or one or more entities disregarded as entities separate from such REIT or such QRSs; provided that (x) this Class B-[1][2][3][4][5][6] Note may be pledged to secure indebtedness and may be the subject of repurchase agreements treated by the Issuer as secured indebtedness for federal income tax purposes, and (y) this Class B-[1][2][3][4][5][6] Note may be transferred by the related lender under any such related loan agreement or repurchase agreement upon a default under any such indebtedness, in which case the transferor shall deliver to the Note Registrar, the Securities Administrator, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee a certificate certifying to such effect.

As provided in the Indenture and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, the transfer of this Note may be registered on the Note Register of the Issuer. Upon surrender for registration of transfer of, or presentation of a written instrument of transfer for, this Note at the office or agency designated by the Issuer pursuant to the Indenture, accompanied by proper instruments of assignment in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator, one or more new Notes of any authorized denominations and of a like aggregate then outstanding Note Principal Balance, will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

 

Prior to the due presentment for registration of transfer of this Note, the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee may treat the Person in whose name this Note is registered as the owner of such Note (i) on the applicable Record Date for the purpose of making payments and interest of such Note, and (ii) on any other date for all other purposes whatsoever, as the owner hereof, whether or not this Note be overdue, and none of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Indenture Trustee nor any such agent of the Issuer, the Securities Administrator or the Indenture Trustee shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

The Indenture permits, with certain exceptions as therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights and obligations of the Issuer and the rights of the Holders of the Notes under the Indenture at any time by the Issuer and the Holders of a majority of each Class of Notes affected thereby. The Indenture also contains provisions permitting the Holders of Notes representing not less than a majority of the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the Notes, to waive any past Event of Default and its consequences except an Event of Default (a) with respect to payment of principal of or interest on any of the Notes, or (b) in respect of a covenant or provision of the Indenture which cannot be modified or amended without the consent of the Holder of each Note. Any such waiver by the Holder, at the time of the giving thereof, of this Note (or any one or more predecessor
Notes) shall bind the Holder of every Note issued upon the registration of transfer hereof or in exchange hereof or in lieu hereof, whether or not notation of such consent or waiver is made upon such Note. The Indenture also permits the 

 

Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, following prior notice to the Rating Agencies, to amend or waive certain terms and conditions set forth in the Indenture without the consent of the Holders of the Notes issued thereunder.

The Notes are exchangeable for a like aggregate then outstanding Note Principal Balance of Notes of different authorized denominations, as requested by the Holder surrendering same.

Unless the Certificate of Authentication hereon has been executed by the Securities Administrator by manual signature, this Note shall not be entitled to any benefit under the Indenture, or be valid or obligatory for any purpose.

Anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, neither the Owner Trustee in its individual capacity, nor any of its respective partners, beneficiaries, agents, officers, directors, employees, or successors or assigns, shall be personally liable for, nor shall recourse be had to any of them for, the payment of principal of or interest on, or performance of, or omission to perform, any of the covenants, obligations or indemnifications contained in this Note, it being expressly understood that said covenants, obligations and indemnifications have been made solely by the Trust to the extent of the assets of the Trust. The holder of this Note by the acceptance hereof agrees that, except as expressly provided in the Basic Documents, the Holder shall have no claim against any of the foregoing for any deficiency, loss or claim therefrom;
provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be taken to prevent recourse to, and enforcement against, the assets of the Trust Estate for any and all liabilities, obligations and undertakings contained in this Note.

AS PROVIDED IN THE INDENTURE, THIS NOTE AND THE INDENTURE CREATING THIS NOTE SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH, AND GOVERNED BY, THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO BE PERFORMED THEREIN.

 

 

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Issuer has caused this instrument to be duly executed.

The undersigned seller, as registered holder (the “Seller”), intends to transfer the Rule 144A Securities described above to the undersigned buyer (the “Buyer”).

1.   In connection with such transfer and in accordance with the agreements pursuant to which the Rule 144A Securities were issued, the Seller hereby certifies the following facts: Neither the Seller nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered, transferred, pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer, pledge or other disposition of the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other similar security from, or otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other similar security with, any person in any manner, or made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or taken any other action, that would
constitute a distribution of the Rule 144A Securities under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), or that would render the disposition of the Rule 144A Securities a violation of Section 5 of the 1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto, and that the Seller has not offered the Rule 144A Securities to any person other than the Buyer or another “qualified institutional buyer” as defined in Rule 144A under the 1933 Act.

2.  The Buyer warrants and represents to, and covenants with, the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 4.02 of the Indenture (the “Indenture”), dated as of July 29, 2005, among Bear Stearns ARM Trust 2005-7, as Issuer, and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Securities Administrator and U.S. Bank National Association, as Indenture Trustee, as follows:

a.  The Buyer understands that the Rule 144A Securities have not been registered under the 1933 Act or the securities laws of any state.

b.  The Buyer considers itself a substantial, sophisticated institutional investor having such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of investment in the Rule 144A Securities.

 

 

c.  The Buyer has been furnished with all information regarding the Rule 144A Securities that it has requested from the Seller, the Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee or the Master Servicer.

d.  Neither the Buyer nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered, transferred, pledged, sold or otherwise disposed of the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other similar security to, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer, pledge or other disposition of the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other similar security from, or otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to the Rule 144A Securities, any interest in the Rule 144A Securities or any other similar security with, any person in any manner, or made any general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner, or taken any other action, that would constitute a distribution of the Rule 144A Securities under the 1933 Act or that would render the disposition of the Rule 144A Securities a violation of Section 5 of
the 1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto, nor will it act, nor has it authorized or will it authorize any person to act, in such manner with respect to the Rule 144A Securities.

e.  The Buyer is a “qualified institutional buyer” as that term is defined in Rule 144A under the 1933 Act and has completed either of the forms of certification to that effect attached hereto as Annex 1 or Annex 2. The Buyer is aware that the sale to it is being made in reliance on Rule 144A. The Buyer is acquiring the Rule 144A Securities for its own account or the accounts of other qualified institutional buyers, understands that such Rule 144A Securities may be resold, pledged or transferred only (i) to a person reasonably believed to be a qualified institutional buyer that purchases for its own account or for the account of a qualified institutional buyer to whom notice is given that the resale, pledge or transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A, or (ii) pursuant to another exemption from registration under the 1933 Act.

3.  The Buyer warrants and represents to, and covenants with, the Seller, the Indenture Trustee, Owner Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, Master Servicer and the Depositor that either (1) the Buyer is (A) not an employee benefit plan (within the meaning of Section 3(3) of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”)), or a plan (within the meaning of Section 4975(e)(1) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986 (“Code”)), which (in either case) is subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code (both a “Plan”), and (B) is not directly or indirectly purchasing the Rule 144A Securities on behalf of, as investment manager of, as named fiduciary of, as trustee of, or with “plan assets” of a Plan, or (2) the Buyer understands that registration of transfer of any Rule 144A Securities to any Plan, or to any Person acting on behalf of
any Plan, will not be made unless such Plan delivers an opinion of its counsel, addressed and satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Depositor, to the effect that the purchase and holding of the Rule 144A Securities by, on behalf of or with “plan assets” of any Plan is permissible under applicable law, would not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, and would not subject the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Master Servicer to any obligation or liability (including liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Master Servicer.

In addition, the Buyer agrees that the Buyer will not purchase securities for a third party unless the Buyer has obtained a current representation letter from such third party or taken other appropriate steps contemplated by Rule 144A to conclude that such third party independently meets the definition of “qualified institutional buyer” set forth in Rule 144A.

7.  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 Rule 144A Securities will constitute a reaffirmation of this certification as of the date of such purchase.

APPENDIX A

DEFINITIONS

Accepted Master Servicing Practices: With respect to any Mortgage Loan, those customary mortgage servicing practices of prudent mortgage servicing institutions that master service Mortgage Loans of the same type and quality as such Mortgage Loan in the jurisdiction where the related Mortgaged Property is located, to the extent applicable to the Master Servicer (except in its capacity as successor to the Servicer).

Account: The Master Servicer Collection Account, the Payment Account, the Protected Account, the Pre-Funding Account and the Interest Coverage Account, as the context may require.

Accrual Period: With respect to the Notes and any Payment Date, the calendar month preceding the month in which such Payment Date occurs.

Accrued Note Interest: With respect to any Class of Notes and any Payment Date, the amount of interest accrued during the related Accrual Period at the applicable Note Interest Rate on the Note Principal Balance or Notional Amount of such Note immediately prior to such Payment Date, less (1) in the case of a Senior Note, such Class’s share of (a) Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, to the extent not covered by Compensating Interest paid by the related Servicer or the Master Servicer, (b) interest shortfalls on the related Mortgage Loans resulting from the application of the Relief Act or similar state law and (c) after the Cross-Over Date, the interest portion of any Realized Losses on the related Mortgage Loans and (2) in the case of a Subordinate Note or Class X Note, such Class’s share of (a) Prepayment Interest Shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans, to the
extent not covered by Compensating Interest paid by the related Servicer or the Master Servicer, (b) interest shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans resulting from the application of the Relief Act or similar state law and (c) the interest portion of any Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans.  Prepayment Interest Shortfalls and interest shortfalls resulting from the application of the Relief Act will be allocated among the Notes in proportion to the amount of Accrued Note Interest that would have been allocated thereto in the absence of such shortfalls. Accrued Note Interest on the Notes will be calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of 30-day months.

Administration Agreement: The Administration Agreement, dated as of July 29, 2005, among the Issuer, the Depositor, the Owner Trustee and the Securities Administrator.

Adjustment Date: As to each Mortgage Loan, each date set forth in the related Mortgage Note on which an adjustment to the interest rate on such Mortgage Loan becomes effective.

Affiliate: With respect to any Person, any other Person controlling, controlled by or under common control with such Person. For purposes of this definition, “control” means the power to direct the management and policies of a Person, directly or indirectly, whether through ownership of voting securities, by contract or otherwise and “controlling” and “controlled” shall have meanings correlative to the foregoing.

 

 

Aggregate Master Servicing Compensation: For any Payment Date, any investment income on funds on deposit in the Master Servicer Collection Account that is payable to the Master Servicer on such Payment Date pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on any Payment Date, the percentage, the numerator of which is the aggregate Note Principal Balance of the related Senior Notes immediately preceding such Payment Date, and the denominator of which is the Scheduled Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group as of the beginning of the related Due Period, exceeds such percentage as of the Cut-off Date, then the related Senior Prepayment Percentage for the related Senior Notes for such Payment Date will equal 100%.
