 Morgan Joseph & Co. Inc. 
 600 Fifth Avenue, 19th Floor

	 	Re:	Oakmont Acquisition Corp. 

  
 Gentlemen: 
  
 This letter will confirm the agreement of the undersigned to purchase warrants (“Warrants”) of Oakmont Acquisition Corp. (“Company”) included in the units
(“Units”) being sold in the Company’s initial public offering (“IPO”) upon the terms and conditions set forth herein. Each Unit is comprised of one share of Common Stock and two Warrants. The
shares of Common Stock and Warrants will not be separately tradable until 90 days after the effective date of the Company’s IPO unless Morgan Joseph & Co. Inc. (“Morgan Joseph”) informs the Company of its decision to
allow earlier separate trading. 
  
 The undersigned agree that
this letter agreement constitutes an irrevocable order for the undersigned to purchase through Morgan Joseph for the account or accounts of the undersigned, within the forty trading-day period commencing on the date separate trading of the Warrants
commences (“Separation Date”), as many Warrants as are available for purchase at market prices not to exceed $0.70 per Warrant, subject to a maximum Warrant purchase obligation equal to, in the aggregate, 1,600,000 Warrants
(“Maximum Warrant Purchase”). Morgan Joseph agrees to fill such order in such amounts and at such times as instructed by the undersigned during the forty trading-day period commencing on the Separation Date. Morgan Joseph
further agrees that it will not charge the undersigned any fees and/or commissions with respect to such purchase obligation. 
  
 The undersigned may notify Morgan Joseph that all or part of the Maximum Warrant Purchase will be made by an affiliate of one or both of the undersigned
(or another person or entity introduced to Morgan Joseph by an undersigned (a “Designee”)) who (or which) has an account at Morgan Joseph and, in such event, Morgan Joseph will make such purchase on behalf of said affiliate
or Designee; provided, however, that the undersigned hereby agree to make payment of the purchase price of such purchase and to fulfill the Maximum Warrant Purchase in the event and to the extent that the affiliate or Designee fails to make such
payment or such purchase. 

 Each of the undersigned agrees that neither he nor any of his affiliates or Designees shall sell or
transfer the Warrants until after the consummation of a merger, capital stock exchange, asset acquisition or other similar business combination with an operating business and acknowledges that, at the option of Morgan Joseph, the certificates for
such Warrants shall contain a legend indicating such restriction on transferability. 
  

	
	 Very truly yours,

 CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS; 
 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES 

 
 SECTION 2.01. Conveyance of Mortgage Loans. 
  
 The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does
hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey to the Trustee without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the assets of the Trust Fund. Such assignment includes all interest and principal received on or with
respect to the Mortgage Loans, other than Subsequent Mortgage Loans, on or after the Cut-off Date (other than Scheduled Payments due on the Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date). 
  
 In connection with such assignment, the Depositor does hereby deliver to, and deposit with, the Trustee, or to the Custodian
as the Trustee’s designated agent, the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan and the Depositor shall, in accordance with Section 2.11, deliver to, and deposit with, the Trustee or to the Custodian, as the
Trustee’s agent, the following documents or instruments with respect to each Subsequent Mortgage Loan:

 (D) In the case of each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS
Loan, the original Assignment of each Mortgage in blank or, to MERS or to “U.S. Bank National Association, as Trustee for Terwin Mortgage Trust 2005-6HE, Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2005-6HE, without recourse.” 
  
 (E) The original policy of title insurance (or a preliminary
title report, commitment or binder if the original title insurance policy has not been received from the title insurance company). 
  
 (F) Originals of any intervening assignments of the Mortgage, with evidence of recording thereon or, if the original intervening
assignment has not yet been returned from the recording office, a copy of such assignment certified to be a true copy of the original of the assignment which has been sent for recording in the appropriate jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property
is located. 
  
 (G) Originals of all assumption
and modification agreements, if any. 
  
 If in connection with any
Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Depositor cannot deliver the Mortgage, Assignments of Mortgage or assumption, consolidation or modification, as the case may be, with evidence of recording thereon, if applicable, concurrently with
the execution and delivery of this Agreement solely because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such Mortgage, Assignments of Mortgage or assumption, consolidation or modification, as the case may be, has been delivered for
recordation, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee and the Custodian written notice stating that such Mortgage or assumption, consolidation or modification, as the case may be, has been delivered to the appropriate
public recording office for recordation. Thereafter, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian with notice to the Trustee such Mortgage, Assignments of Mortgage or assumption, consolidation or modification, as the case
may be, with evidence of recording indicated thereon, if applicable, upon receipt thereof from the public recording office. To the extent any required endorsement is not contained on a Mortgage Note or an Assignment of Mortgage, the Depositor shall
make or cause such endorsement to be made. 
  
 In connection with
the assignment of any MERS Mortgage Loan, the Seller agrees that within 360 days of receipt of all information and documentation required by MERS it will take (or shall cause the Servicing Administrator or the Servicer to take), at the expense of
the Seller (with the cooperation of the Depositor and the Trustee), such actions as are necessary to cause the MERS System to indicate that such Mortgage Loans have been assigned to the Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for the benefit of
the Certificateholders by including (or deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans that are repurchased in accordance with this Agreement) in such computer files the information required by the MERS System to identify the series of the Certificates
issued in connection with the transfer of such Mortgage Loans to the Trust. 
  

 -55- 

 With respect to any Mortgage Loan, none of the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicers, the
Securities Administrator or the Trustee shall be obligated to cause to be recorded the Assignment of Mortgage referred to in this Section 2.01. In the event an Assignment of Mortgage is not recorded, each of the Servicing Administrator, the Seller,
the Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the Servicer shall have no liability for its failure to receive and act on notices related to such Assignment of Mortgage. 
  

The ownership of each Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and the contents of the related Mortgage File is vested in the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders. None of the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer nor the Securities Administrator shall take any action inconsistent with such ownership and shall not claim any ownership interest therein. The Depositor, the
Servicing Administrator, the Servicer and Securities Administrator shall respond to any third party inquiries with respect to ownership of the Mortgage Loans by stating that such ownership is held by the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.
The Depositor agrees to take no action inconsistent with the Trustee’s ownership of the Mortgage Loans, to promptly indicate to all inquiring parties that the Mortgage Loans have been sold and to claim no ownership interest in the Mortgage
Loans. 
  
 It is the intention of this Agreement that the
conveyance of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Trust Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If a conveyance of Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Depositor is characterized
as a pledge and not a sale, then the Depositor shall be deemed to have transferred to the Trustee all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the obligations of the Seller deemed to be secured by said pledge; and it is the
intention of this Agreement that the Depositor shall also be deemed to have granted to the Trustee a first priority security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title, and interest in, to and under the obligations of the Seller to the
Depositor deemed to be secured by said pledge and that the Trustee shall be deemed to be an independent custodian for purposes of perfection of the security interest granted to the Depositor. If the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans from the
Depositor to the Trustee is characterized as a pledge, it is the intention of this Agreement that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law, and that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee a
first priority security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal of or interest on such Mortgage Loans, all other rights relating to and payments made in respect
of the Trust Fund, and all proceeds of any thereof. If the trust created by this Agreement terminates prior to the satisfaction of the claims of any Person in any Certificates, the security interest created hereby shall continue in full force and
effect and the Trustee shall be deemed to be the collateral agent for the benefit of such Person. 
  
 In addition to the conveyance made in the first paragraph of this Section 2.01, the Depositor does hereby convey, assign and set over to the Trustee for
the benefit of the Certificateholders its rights and interests under the Sale Agreement, including the Depositor’s right, title and interest in the representations and warranties contained in the Sale Agreement, the rights in the Transfer
Agreement described therein, and the benefit of the repurchase obligations and the obligation of the Seller contained in the Sale Agreement to take, at the request of the Depositor or the Trustee, all action on its part which is reasonably necessary
to ensure the enforceability of a Mortgage Loan. The Trustee hereby accepts such assignment, and shall be entitled to exercise all rights of the Depositor under the Sale Agreement as if, for such purpose, it were the Depositor. The foregoing sale,
transfer, assignment, set-over, deposit and conveyance does not and is not intended to result in creation or assumption by the Trustee of any obligation of the Depositor, the Seller, or any other Person in connection with the Mortgage Loans or any
other agreement or instrument relating thereto. 
  

 -56- 

 It is agreed and understood by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee that it is not intended that
any Mortgage Loan be included in the Trust that is, without limitation, a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 or any applicable anti-predatory lending laws, including but not limited to
(i) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003, (ii) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act, effective January 1, 2004, (iii) the
Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act, effective November 7, 2004 or (iv) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Indiana High-Cost Home Loan Law effective January 1, 2005. 
  
 SECTION 2.02. Acceptance by the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.

  
 The Trustee accepts its appointment as Trustee hereunder and,
except as set forth as an exception in the exception report (the “Exception Report”) delivered with the Initial Certification (the “Initial Certification”) or the Final Certification, acknowledges the Custodian’s receipt,
subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to the review described below, of the Mortgage Note for each Mortgage Loan and delivery of a Mortgage File (but does not acknowledge receipt of all documents required to be included in such
Mortgage File) with respect to each Mortgage Loan and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and any other documents constituting a part of the Mortgage Files delivered to it in trust for the use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders. The Depositor will cause the Seller to repurchase any Mortgage Loan to which a material exception was taken in the Exception Report unless such exception is cured to the satisfaction of the Securities Administrator within 45
Business Days of the Closing Date (or the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to Subsequent Mortgage Loans). 
  
 The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the Cap Contract (a form of which is attached hereto) and is hereby instructed to enter into the Cap Contract, not in
its individual capacity, but solely as Trustee for the Terwin Mortgage Trust, Series TMTS 2005-6HE. 
  
 The Trustee agrees to cause the Custodian to deliver prior to the Closing Date (or the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to Subsequent Mortgage Loans)
to the Depositor, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer and the Trustee an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B-1 to Exhibit Q. The Trustee shall not be under any duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine such
documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other than what
they purport to be on their face. 
  
 Not later than 70 days after
the Closing Date (or the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to Subsequent Mortgage Loans), the Custodial Agreement requires the Custodian to deliver to the Depositor, the Seller, the Securities Administrator and the Servicer an Interim
Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B-2 to Exhibit Q, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. 
  
 Not later than 90 days after the Closing Date (or the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to Subsequent Mortgage Loans), the Custodial Agreement
requires the Custodian to deliver to the Depositor, the Seller, the Securities Administrator and the Servicer a Final Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B-3 to Exhibit Q, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. 
  
 If, in the course of such review, the Trustee is notified by the Custodian
that any document constituting a part of a Mortgage File does not meet the requirements of Section 2.01, the Trustee shall cause the Custodian to list such as an exception in the Final Certification; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not
make any determination as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable form
or is sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment relates. 
  

 -57- 

 The Seller shall promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from the date it is so notified of
such defect and provided with information indicating the nature of the breach and, if the Seller does not correct or cure such defect within such period, the Seller shall either (i) substitute for the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the provisions
of Section 2.03(c), or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90 days from the date the Seller was notified of such defect in writing at the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that if the cure, substitution or
repurchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this provision is required by reason of a delay in delivery of any documents by the appropriate recording office, then, provided such defect does not cause such Mortgage Loan not to be a “qualified
mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)(A) of the Code (as determined without regard to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(3)(iii) or any similar rule that treats a defective obligation as a “qualified mortgage” for a
temporary period) the Seller shall be given 270 days from the Closing Date (or the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to Subsequent Mortgage Loans) to cure such defect or, subject to the requirements of Section 2.03(c) hereof, substitute for, or
repurchase such Mortgage Loan; and further provided, that the Seller shall have no liability for recording any Assignment of Mortgage in favor of the Trustee or for the Seller’s failure to record such Assignment of Mortgage, and the Seller
shall not be obligated to repurchase or cure any Mortgage Loan as to which such Assignment of Mortgage is not recorded. Any such substitution effected more than 90 days after the Closing Date shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the
Custodian of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05 hereof and any substitution shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery to the Custodian of a Request for Release certifying that such Mortgage Loan is a Replacement Mortgage
Loan substantially in the form of Exhibit I and the Mortgage File for any such substitute Mortgage Loan. The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by the Seller in the Certificate Account on or prior to the Business Day
immediately preceding the Distribution Date in the month following the month of repurchase and, upon receipt of such deposit and certification with respect thereto in the form of Exhibit I hereto, the Custodian shall release the related Mortgage
File to the Seller and shall execute and deliver at such entity’s request such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by such entity, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in such entity, or a designee, the
Trustee’s interest in any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. 
  
 The Trustee shall request that the Seller correct or cure such omission, defect or other irregularity, or substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.03(c), within 90 days from the date the Seller was notified of such
omission or defect and provided with information indicating the nature of the breach and, if the Seller does not correct or cure such omission or defect within such period, the Trustee shall require that the Seller purchase such Mortgage Loan from
the Trust Fund within 90 days from the date the Trustee notified the Seller of such omission, defect or other irregularity and provided information indicating the nature of the breach at the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan. The Purchase Price
for any Mortgage Loan purchased pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be paid to the Servicer and deposited by the Servicer in the Certificate Account, promptly upon receipt, and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such deposit
signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee, upon receipt of a Request for Release, shall promptly release to the Seller the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse,
as shall be requested by the Seller and necessary to vest in the Seller or its designee, as the case may be, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto, and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage Loan. It is
understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to purchase, cure or substitute any Mortgage Loan as to which a material defect in or omission of a constituent document exists shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect or
omission available to the Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders. The preceding sentence shall not, however, limit any remedies available to the Certificateholders, the Depositor, Securities Administrator or the Trustee pursuant to the Sale 

  

 -58- 

 
Agreement and any Transfer Agreement. The Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review and examine such documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that they are genuine, enforceable, recordable or appropriate to the represented purpose, or that they have actually been recorded, or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face. The
Servicer, the Servicing Administrator, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee shall keep confidential the name of each Mortgagor except as required by this Agreement and the Servicer, the Servicing Administrator, the Securities Administrator
and the Trustee shall not solicit any such Mortgagor for the purpose of refinancing the related Mortgage Loan; notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, the foregoing shall not be construed to prohibit (i) disclosure of any and all
information that is or becomes publicly known, or information obtained from sources other than the other parties hereto, (ii) disclosure of any and all information (A) if required to do so by any applicable law, rule or regulation, (B) to any
government agency or regulatory body having or claiming authority to regulate or oversee any aspect of Trustee’s, the Servicer’s, the Servicing Administrator’s or the Securities Administrator’s business or that of their
affiliates, (C) pursuant to any subpoena, civil investigation demand or similar demand or request of any court, regulatory authority, or arbitrator or pursuant to any arbitration to which Trustee, the Servicer, the Servicing Administrator or the
Securities Administrator or any affiliate or officer, director, employer or shareholder thereof is a party or (D) to any affiliate, independent or internal auditor, agent, employee or attorney of Trustee, the Servicer, the Servicing Administrator or
the Securities Administrator having a need to know the same, provided that such Person advises such recipient of the confidential nature of the information being disclosed, or (iii) any other disclosure authorized by the Depositor or Servicing
Administrator. 
  
 All of the Mortgage Files are being held by the
Custodian pursuant to the Custodial Agreement. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee or the Custodian, as the Trustee’s agents with respect to the custody,
acceptance, inspection and release of the Mortgage Files pursuant to this Agreement shall be performed by the Custodian pursuant to the Custodial Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 2.03. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Depositor. 
  
 (a) The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Servicer, the Servicing Administrator, the Securities
Administrator, the Seller and the Trustee as follows, as of the date hereof: 
  
 (i) The Depositor is duly organized and is validly existing as a corporation in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and has full power and authority (corporate and other) necessary to own or hold its
properties and to conduct its business as now conducted by it and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement and the Sale Agreement. 
  
 (ii) The Depositor has the full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform, and to enter into and consummate the
transactions contemplated by, this Agreement and the Sale Agreement and has duly authorized, by all necessary corporate action on its part, the execution, delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Sale Agreement; and this Agreement and the
Sale Agreement, assuming the due authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other parties hereto, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms, subject,
as to enforceability, to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium and other similar laws affecting creditors’ rights generally and (ii) general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in
equity or at law. 
  

 -59- 

 (iii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Sale Agreement by the
Depositor, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and the Sale Agreement, and the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business of the Depositor and will not (A) result in a
material breach of any term or provision of the charter or by-laws of the Depositor or (B) materially conflict with, result in a violation or acceleration of, or result in a material default under, the terms of any other material agreement or
instrument to which the Depositor is a party or by which it may be bound or (C) constitute a material violation of any statute, order or regulation applicable to the Depositor of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body
having jurisdiction over the Depositor; and the Depositor is not in breach or violation of any material indenture or other material agreement or instrument, or in violation of any statute, order or regulation of any court, regulatory body,
administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over it which breach or violation may materially impair the Depositor’s ability to perform or meet any of its obligations under this Agreement. 
  
 (iv) No litigation is pending, or, to the best of the
Depositor’s knowledge, threatened, against the Depositor that would materially and adversely affect the execution, delivery or enforceability of this Agreement and the Sale Agreement or the ability of the Depositor to perform its obligations
under this Agreement and the Sale Agreement in accordance with the terms hereof. 
  
 (v) No consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and
performance by the Depositor of, or compliance by the Depositor with, this Agreement and the Sale Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby, or if any such consent, approval, authorization or order is required, the
Depositor has obtained the same. The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee with respect to each Mortgage Loan as of the Closing Date (or the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to Subsequent Mortgage Loans), and following the
transfer of the Mortgage Loans to it by the Seller, the Depositor had good title to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgage Notes were subject to no offsets, claims, liens, mortgage, pledge, charge, security interest, defenses or counterclaims.

  
 (b) The representations and warranties of each Transferor
with respect to the related Mortgage Loans in the applicable Transfer Agreement, which have been assigned to the Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date specified in the applicable Transfer Agreement (or underlying agreement, if such Transfer
Agreement is in the form of an assignment of a prior agreement). To the extent that any fact, condition or event with respect to a Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of both (i) a representation or warranty of the applicable Transferor under the
applicable Transfer Agreement and (ii) a representation or warranty of the Seller under the Sale Agreement, the obligations of the Seller under the Sale Agreement shall be enforced and to the extent the Seller does not fulfill its contracted
obligations then the obligations of the applicable Transferor shall be enforced under any applicable representation or warranty made by it. The Trustee further acknowledges that the Depositor shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any
breach of any representation or warranty with respect to the Mortgage Loans under any circumstances. 
  
 (c) Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee of a breach of any of
such representations and warranties that adversely and materially affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan, prepayment charges or the interests of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to
the other parties. Within 90 days of the discovery of such breach of any representation or warranty together with information indicating the nature of the breach, the applicable Transferor or the 

  

 -60- 

 
Seller, as applicable, shall either (a) cure such breach in all material respects, (b) repurchase such Mortgage Loan or any property acquired in respect
thereof from the Trustee at the Purchase Price or (c) within the two year period following the Closing Date, substitute a Replacement Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan. In the event of discovery of a breach of any representation and
warranty of any Transferor or the Seller, the Trustee’s rights shall be enforced under the applicable Transfer Agreement and the Sale Agreement for the benefit of Certificateholders. If a breach of the representations and warranties set forth
in the Transfer Agreement hereof exists solely due to the unenforceability of a prepayment charge, the Trustee or the other party having notice thereof shall notify the Servicer thereof and not seek to enforce the repurchase remedy provided for
herein unless such Mortgage Loan is not current. In the event of a breach of the representations and warranties with respect to the Mortgage Loans set forth in a Transfer Agreement, the Trustee shall enforce the right of the Trust Fund to be
indemnified for such breach of representation and warranty. In the event that such breach relates solely to the unenforceability of a prepayment charge, amounts received in respect of such indemnity up to the amount of such prepayment charge shall
be distributed pursuant to Section 5.05(i). As provided in the Sale Agreement, if the Transferor substitutes for a Mortgage Loan for which there is a breach of any representations and warranties in the related Transfer Agreement which adversely and
materially affects the value of such Mortgage Loan and such substitute mortgage loan is not a Replacement Mortgage Loan, under the terms of the Sale Agreement, the Seller will, in exchange for such substitute Mortgage Loan, (i) provide the
applicable Purchase Price for the affected Mortgage Loan or (ii) within two years of the Closing Date, substitute such affected Mortgage Loan with a Replacement Mortgage Loan. Any such substitution shall not be effected prior to the additional
delivery to the Trustee of a Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit I and shall not be effected unless it is within two years of the Startup Day. The Seller indemnifies and holds the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer and each Certificateholder harmless against any and all taxes, claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other
costs, fees and expenses that the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer and any Certificateholder may sustain in connection with any actions of the Seller relating to a
repurchase of a Mortgage Loan other than in compliance with the terms of this Section 2.03 and the Sale Agreement, to the extent that any such action causes (i) any federal or state tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund or any REMIC provided for
herein, including without limitation, any federal tax imposed on “prohibited transactions” under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or on “contributions after the startup day” under Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code, or (ii) any REMIC
created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is outstanding. In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Transferor or the Seller, as applicable, is not a member of MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is
registered on the MERS System, the Transferor or the Seller, as applicable, at its own expense and without any right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage
from MERS to the Transferor or the Seller, as applicable, and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS System in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations. 
  
 With respect to any Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Seller pursuant to the
Sale Agreement or by any Transferor pursuant to the applicable Transfer Agreement, the principal portion of the funds received by the Securities Administrator, in respect of such repurchase of a Mortgage Loan will be considered a Principal
Prepayment and shall be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.05. The Trustee, upon receipt of notice from the Securities Administrator of its receipt of the full amount of the Purchase Price for a Deleted Mortgage Loan, or upon
receipt of the Mortgage File for a Replacement Mortgage Loan substituted for a Deleted Mortgage Loan, shall release or cause to be released and reassign to the Seller or the applicable Transferor, as applicable, the related Mortgage File for the
Deleted Mortgage Loan and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as shall be necessary to vest in such party or its designee or assignee title to any Deleted
Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto, free and clear of all 

  

 -61- 

 
security interests, liens and other encumbrances created by this Agreement, which instruments shall be prepared by the Seller, and neither the Trustee nor
the Securities Administrator shall have any further responsibility with respect to the Mortgage File relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan. 
  
 With respect to each Replacement Mortgage Loan to be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian) pursuant to the terms of this Article II in exchange for
a Deleted Mortgage Loan: (i) the applicable Transferor or the Seller, as applicable, must deliver to the Trustee (or its custodian) the Mortgage File for the Replacement Mortgage Loan containing the documents set forth in Section 2.01 along with a
written certification certifying as to the Mortgage Loan satisfying all requirements under the definition of Replacement Mortgage Loan and the delivery of such Mortgage File and containing the granting language set forth in Section 2.01; and (ii)
the Depositor will be deemed to have made, with respect to such Replacement Mortgage Loan, each of the representations and warranties made by it with respect to the related Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Custodian shall review the Mortgage File with
respect to each Replacement Mortgage Loan and certify to the Depositor that all documents required by Section 2.01 have been executed and received. 
  
 For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Replacement Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Seller will determine the
amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Replacement Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution and the aggregate prepayment penalties with respect to such Replacement Mortgage Loans is less than the aggregate Stated
Principal Balance (after application of the principal portion of the Scheduled Payment due in the month of substitution) and aggregate prepayment penalties of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans. An amount equal to the aggregate of the deficiencies
described in the preceding sentence (such amount, the “Substitution Adjustment Amount”) shall be deposited into the Certificate Account by the Seller on the Determination Date for the Distribution Date relating to the Prepayment Period
during which the related Mortgage Loan became required to be purchased or replaced hereunder. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right to substitute Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Article II shall be subject to the additional limitations that no substitution of a Replacement Mortgage
Loan for a Deleted Mortgage Loan shall be made unless the Securities Administrator shall have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to make the substitution) that, under current law, such substitution will not (A)
affect adversely the status of any REMIC established hereunder as a REMIC, or of the related “regular interests” as “regular interests” in any such REMIC, or (B) cause any such REMIC to engage in a “prohibited
transaction” or prohibited contribution pursuant to the REMIC Provisions. 
  
 The Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Replacement Mortgage Loan or Replacement Mortgage
Loans. Upon such substitution by the Seller, such Replacement Mortgage Loan or Replacement Mortgage Loans shall constitute part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and the Sale Agreement,
including all applicable representations and warranties thereof included in the Sale Agreement as of the date of substitution. 
  
 (d) It is understood and agreed that the representations, warranties and indemnification (i) set forth in this Section 2.03, (ii) of the Seller and the
Depositor set forth in the Sale Agreement and assigned to the Trustee by the Depositor hereunder and (iii) of each Transferor, assigned by the Seller to the Depositor pursuant to the Sale Agreement and assigned to the Trustee by the Depositor
hereunder shall each survive delivery of the Mortgage Files and the Assignment of Mortgage of each Mortgage Loan to the Trustee and shall continue throughout the term of this Agreement. 
  

 -62- 

 (e) The Depositor shall deliver a copy of the Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Servicer on the Closing Date
(or the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to Subsequent Mortgage Loans).

 SECTION 2.05. Substitutions and Repurchases of Mortgage Loans which are not “Qualified
Mortgages.” 
  
 Upon discovery by the Depositor, the
Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Backup 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 promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days of discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties. In connection therewith, the Depositor shall, at the Depositor’s option, either (i) substitute, if the
conditions in Section 2.03(c) with respect to substitutions are satisfied, a Replacement Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of such discovery in the same manner as it would a
Mortgage Loan for a breach of representation or warranty contained in Section 2.03. The Trustee, upon the written direction of the Depositor, shall reconvey to the Depositor the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on

1, REMIC 2 and REMIC 3 be treated as a REMIC at all times prior to the date on which the Trust Fund is terminated.

shall have the characteristics set forth in its definition and this Section 2.07. For federal income tax purposes, the interest rate on each REMIC 3 Regular Interest (other than the REMIC 3 X Interest and the REMIC 3 S Components) shall be subject
to a cap equal to the Net Rate. 
  
 The beneficial ownership of
the Class LT1-R Interest, the Class LT2-R Interest and the REMIC 3 Residual Interest shall be represented by the Class R Certificate. None of the Class LT1-R Interest, the Class LT2-R Interest and the REMIC 3 Residual Interest shall have a principal
balance or bear interest. 
  
 (c) The “tax matters
person” with respect to each REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions shall be the beneficial owner of the Class R Certificate; provided, however, that the Holder of a Class R Certificate, by its acceptance thereof, irrevocably appoints the
Securities Administrator as its agent and attorney-in-fact to act as “tax matters person” with respect to each REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. If there is more than one beneficial owner of the Class R Certificate, the “tax
matters person” shall be the Person with the greatest percentage interest in the Class R Certificate and, if there is more than one such Person, shall be determined under Treasury regulation Section 1.860F-4(d) and Treasury regulation Section
301.6231(a)(7)-1. 
  
 (d) It is intended that the rights of the
Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates to receive payments in respect of Excess Interest shall be treated as a right in interest rate cap contracts written in favor of the holders of the Class A, Class M, and Class B Certificates by the holder of
the Class X Certificates, and such shall be accounted for as property held separate and apart from the regular interests in REMIC 3 held by the holders of the Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates. For information reporting requirements, the
rights of the Class A, Class M, Class B-1, Class B-2 and Class B-3 Certificates to receive payments in respect of Excess Interest shall be assumed to have zero value or a de minimis value. This provision is intended to satisfy the requirements of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(i) for the treatment of property rights coupled with REMIC interests to be separately respected and shall be interpreted consistently with such regulation. On each Distribution Date, to the extent that any of
the Class A, Class M and Class B Certificates receive payments of Excess Interest (other than from payments received in respect of the Cap Contract), such amounts will be treated as distributed by REMIC 3 with respect to the REMIC 3X Interest and
then paid to the relevant Class of Certificates pursuant to the related interest rate cap contract. 
  
 (e) The parties intend that the portion of the Trust Fund consisting of the uncertificated REMIC 3 X Interest, the Cap Contract, the Cap Contract Account,
the rights to receive amounts distributable to the Class X Certificates pursuant to Section 5.05(i) and the obligation of the holders of the Class X Certificates to make payments in respect of Excess Interest to the holders of the Class A, Class M
and Class B Certificates shall be treated as a “grantor trust” under the Code, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, the Trustee shall (i) furnish or cause to be
furnished to the holders of the Class X Certificates information regarding their allocable share, if any, of the income with respect to such grantor trust, (ii) file or cause to 

  

 -67- 

 
be filed with the Internal Revenue Service Form 1041 (together with any necessary attachments) and such other forms as may be applicable and (iii) comply
with such information reporting obligations with respect to payments from such grantor trust to the holders of Class A Class M, Class B and Class X Certificates as may be applicable under the Code. 
  
 The parties intend that the portion of the Trust Fund consisting of the
Initial ES Strip shall be treated as a “grantor trust” under the Code, and the provisions hereof shall be interpreted consistently with this intention. In furtherance of such intention, the Trustee shall (i) furnish or cause to be
furnished to the holders of the Class ES Certificates information regarding their allocable share of the income with respect to such grantor and (ii) file or cause to be filed with the Internal Revenue Service Form 1041 (together with any necessary
attachments) and such other forms as may be applicable. The parties intend that in the event that any servicer’s fee is computed based on a rate that exceeds the rate upon which the Servicer’s fee is computed as of the Closing Date, the
holders of the Class ES Certificates shall be treated as if they received any amounts that are paid to such servicer and such holders shall be deemed to pay such amounts to such servicer. 
  
 (f) All payments of principal and interest at the Net Mortgage Rate on each of the Mortgage Loans received from the Mortgage
Loans shall be paid to the REMIC 1 Regular Interests until the principal balance of all such interests have been reduced to zero and any losses allocated to such interests have been reimbursed. Any excess amounts shall be distributed to the Class
LT1-R Interest. On each Distribution Date, an amount equal to 50% of the increase in the Overcollateralization Amount shall be payable as a reduction of the principal amounts of the REMIC 1 Marker Interests (with such amount allocated among the
REMIC 1 Marker Interests so that each REMIC 1 Marker Interest will have its principal reduced by an amount equal to 50% of any increase in the Overcollateralization Amount that results in a reduction in the principal balance of its Corresponding
REMIC 2 Interest) and will be accrued and added to the principal balance of the Class LT1-X Interest. All payments of scheduled principal and prepayments of principal on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated 50% to the Class LT1-X Interest and 50%
to the REMIC 1 Marker Interests (with principal payments allocated to each of the REMIC 1 Marker Interests in an amount equal to 50% of the principal amounts distributed to the Corresponding REMIC 2 Interests in reduction of their principal
amounts). Notwithstanding the preceding sentence, an amount equal to the principal payments that result in a reduction in the Overcollateralization Amount shall be treated as payable entirely to the Class LT1-X Interest. Realized Losses, other than
Realized Losses that are not applied against overcollateralization or the principal amount of the Class M, Class X or Class B Certificates, shall be applied to the REMIC 1 Marker Interests and the Class LT1-X Interest so that after all distributions
have been made on each Distribution Date (i) the principal balance of each of the REMIC 1 Marker Interests is equal to 50% of the principal balance of the Corresponding REMIC 2 Interest and (ii) the principal balance of the Class LT1-X Interest is
equal to the sum of (x) 50% of the sum of (i) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and (ii) the Pre-Funded Amount and (y) 50% of the Overcollateralization Amount. Each REMIC 1 Marker Interest shall be entitled to receive an
amount equal to 50% of all amounts distributed to the Corresponding REMIC 2 Interest in respect of unreimbursed amounts of Realized Losses. The Class LT1-X Interest shall be entitled to receive all other amounts distributed to the Certificates in
respect of unreimbursed amounts of Realized Losses. The principal balance of the REMIC 1 Regular Interests will be increased on each Distribution Date in an amount equal to any increase on such Distribution Date in the Certificate Principal Balance
of the Certificates pursuant to the definition of “Certificate Principal Balance.” The increase described in the preceding sentence shall be allocated 50% to the Class LT1-X Interest and 50% among the REMIC 1 Marker Interests so that each
REMIC 1 Marker Interest will have its principal amount increased by an amount equal to 50% of the increase in the principal balance of its Corresponding REMIC 2 Interest pursuant to the immediately following paragraph. 
  

 -68- 

 (g) All payments of scheduled principal and prepayments on the Mortgage Loans, Realized Losses and
shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans that are allocated to the Certificates, shall be allocated among the REMIC 2 Regular Interests in the same manner as such payments, Realized Losses or shortfalls are allocated to the Related Certificates (treating
the Class S Certificates as Related Certificates with respect to each of the Class LT2-A-1A Interest, the Class LT2-A-1B Interest and the Class LT2-A-1C Interest in proportion to their respective principal balances and treating the Class X
Certificates as Related Certificates with respect to the Class LT2-X Interest). Each REMIC 2 Regular Interest shall be entitled to receive all amounts distributed to the Related Certificates in respect of unreimbursed amounts of Realized Losses or
shortfalls (treating the Class S Certificates as Related Certificates with respect to each of the Class LT2-A-1A Interest, Class LT2-A-1B Interest and Class LT2-A-1C Interest in proportion to their respective principal balances and treating the
Class X Certificates as Related Certificates with respect to the Class LT2-X Interest). If on any Distribution Date the Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates is increased pursuant to the definition of “Certificate Principal
Balance”, then there shall be an equivalent increase in the principal amounts of the REMIC 2 Regular Interests, with such increase allocated (before the making of distributions and the allocation of losses on the REMIC 2 Regular Interests on
such Distribution Date) among the REMIC 2 Regular Interests in the same manner as such increase is allocated to the Related Certificates. 
  
 (h) All payments of scheduled principal and prepayments on the Mortgage Loans, and Realized Losses and shortfalls on the Mortgage Loans, shall be
allocated among the REMIC 3 Interests in the same manner as such payments or Realized Losses or shortfalls are allocated to the Related Certificates (treating the Class S Certificates as Related Certificates with respect to each of the REMIC 3 S
Components in proportion to their respective amounts of accrued interest and treating the Class X Certificates as related to the REMIC 3X Interest for this purpose). Each REMIC 3 Interest shall be entitled to receive all amounts distributed to the
Related Certificates in respect of unreimbursed amounts of Realized Losses or shortfalls (treating the Class S Certificates as Related Certificates with respect to each of the REMIC 3 S Components in proportion to their respective amounts of accrued
interest and treating the Class X Certificates as related to the REMIC 3X Interest for this purpose). The principal balance of the REMIC 3 Interests will be increased on each Distribution Date in an amount equal to any increase on such Distribution
Date in the Certificate Principal Balance of the Related Certificates pursuant to the definition of “Certificate Principal Balance.” 
  
 In the event that any REMIC provided for herein fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a
result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator, the Servicing Administrator and the Trust Fund against any and all Losses resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the
Securities Administrator, the Depositor, the Trustee or the Holder of the Class R Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder of the Class R Certificate on which the Servicer has relied.
The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of the Class R Certificate now or hereafter existing at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer have any
liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent
performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates). 
  
 In the event that any REMIC provided for herein fails to qualify as a REMIC,
loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited 

  

 -69- 

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

hereby covenants to each of the other parties to this Agreement as follows: 
  
 (a) the Servicing Administrator shall comply in the performance of its obligations under this Agreement and with all reasonable rules and requirements of the insurer under each Required Insurance Policy to the extent

 (b) no written information, certificate of an officer, statement furnished in writing or written report delivered to the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee, any affiliate of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the
Backup Servicer or the Trustee and prepared by the Servicing Administrator pursuant to this Agreement will be inaccurate in any material respect, provided, however, that the Servicing Administrator shall not be responsible for inaccurate information
provided to it by third parties.

of the other parties to this Agreement as follows:

 SECTION 2.11. Conveyance of Subsequent Mortgage Loans. 
  
 (a) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b) below, in
consideration of the remittance on each Subsequent Transfer Date to or upon the order of the Depositor of all or a portion of the balance of funds in the Pre-Funding Account, which constitute the purchase price for the related Subsequent Mortgage
Loans, as described in the next paragraph, the Depositor shall on such Subsequent Transfer Date sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey without recourse all of the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to (i) the Subsequent Mortgage
Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached to the related Subsequent Transfer Instrument delivered by the Depositor on such Subsequent Transfer Date, including all interest and principal received on or with respect to the Subsequent
Mortgage Loans so assigned and the Depositor shall deliver to, and deposit with, the Trustee (or the Custodian on its behalf) all items with respect to such Subsequent Mortgage Loans to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01; provided,
however, that the Depositor reserves and retains all right, title and interest in and to principal received and interest accruing on the Subsequent Mortgage Loans on or prior to the related Subsequent Cut-off Date. The transfer to the Trustee
for deposit in the Mortgage Pool by the Depositor of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule shall be absolute and is intended by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Certificateholders to constitute and to
be treated as a sale of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trust Fund. The related Mortgage File for each Subsequent Mortgage Loan shall be delivered to the Trustee or to the Custodian (as the duly appointed agent of the Trustee)
on or before the related Subsequent Transfer Date. The Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Subsequent Mortgage Loans. After the Subsequent Transfer Date, the Subsequent Mortgage Loans shall constitute part
of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and the Sale Agreement, including all applicable representations and warranties thereof included in the Sale Agreement as of the date of substitution.

  
 Upon delivery by the Depositor of timely Addition Notices, and
subject to satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraphs (c) and (d) below, the Trust Fund shall be obligated to purchase, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, Subsequent Mortgage Loans offered for sale by the Depositor
during the Funding Period (subject to the limitation that the aggregate purchase price for such Subsequent Mortgage Loans may not exceed the Original Pre-Funded Amount). The purchase price paid by the Trust Fund for the Subsequent Mortgage Loans on
each Subsequent Transfer Date shall be one-hundred percent (100%) of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans so transferred (as identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule provided by the Depositor) as of the related
Subsequent Cut-off Date. On each Subsequent Transfer Date, the aggregate purchase price for all Subsequent Mortgage Loans purchased on such date shall be withdrawn by the Securities Administrator from the Pre-Funding Account and paid to the
Depositor. Thereafter, the Pre-Funded Amount will equal the Original Pre-Funded Amount reduced by the purchase price paid for Subsequent Mortgage Loans. This Agreement shall constitute a fixed-price purchase contract in accordance with Section
860G(a)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code. 
  
 (b) The Depositor shall
transfer to the Trustee for deposit in the Mortgage Pool the Subsequent Mortgage Loans and the other property and rights related thereto as described in paragraph (a) above, and the Securities Administrator shall release funds from the Pre-Funding
Account, only upon the satisfaction of each of the following conditions on or prior to the related Subsequent Transfer Date: 
  
 (i) the Depositor shall have provided the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Servicer with a timely Addition Notice; 
  

 -71- 

 (ii) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Trustee (with a copy to the Securities Administrator) a
duly executed Subsequent Transfer Instrument, which shall include a Mortgage Loan Schedule listing the Subsequent Mortgage Loans, and the Depositor shall have delivered a computer file containing such Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Securities
Administrator, the Trustee and the Servicer at least three Business Days prior to the related Subsequent Transfer Date; 
  
 (iii) as of each Subsequent Transfer Date, as evidenced by delivery of the Subsequent Transfer Instrument, the Depositor shall not be insolvent nor shall
it have been rendered insolvent by such transfer nor shall it be aware of any pending insolvency; 
  
 (iv) the Funding Period shall not have terminated; 
  
 (v) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Trustee (with a copy to the Securities Administrator) a Subsequent Transfer Instrument confirming the
satisfaction of the conditions precedent specified in this Section 2.11 and, pursuant to the Subsequent Transfer Instrument, assigned to the Trustee without recourse for the benefit of the Certificateholders all the right, title and interest of the
Depositor, in, to and under the Subsequent Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, to the extent of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans; 
  
 (vi) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Trustee a letter (with copies provided to the Rating Agencies and the Securities Administrator), which the
Trustee may rely on, including for purposes of paragraph (c) and (d) stating that the characteristics of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans substantially conform to the characteristics set forth in paragraphs (c) and (d) below and that such Subsequent
Mortgage Loans were not selected in a manner that the Depositor believes to be adverse to Certificateholders; 
  
 (vii) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies with a copy to the
Securities Administrator with respect to the transfer of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans substantially in the form of the Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee on the Closing Date regarding the true sale of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans; and

  
 (viii) the Trustee shall have delivered to the Depositor an
Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Depositor and the Rating Agencies with respect to the Subsequent Transfer Instrument substantially in the form of the Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Depositor on the Closing Date regarding certain corporate
matters relating to the Trustee. 
  
 (c) The obligation of the
Trust Fund to purchase a Subsequent Mortgage Loan on any Subsequent Transfer Date is subject to the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in paragraph (d) below and the accuracy of the following representations and warranties with respect to such
Subsequent Mortgage Loan determined as of the Subsequent Cut-off Date (or such other date as is specified herein): (i) the Subsequent Mortgage Loan may not be 31 or more days delinquent as of the related Subsequent Cut-off Date (except with respect
to not more than 1.5% of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans, by aggregate principal balance as of the related Subsequent Cut-off Date, which may be 31 or more days delinquent but less than 60 days delinquent as of the related Subsequent Cut-off Date);
(ii) the stated term to maturity of the Subsequent Mortgage Loan will not be less than 120 months and will not exceed 360 months; (iii) the Subsequent Mortgage Loan may not provide for negative amortization; (iv) the Subsequent Mortgage Loan will
not have a Loan-to-Value Ratio greater than 100.00%; (v) the Subsequent Mortgage Loans will have as of the Subsequent Cut-off Date, a term since origination not in excess of 6 months; (vii) the Subsequent Mortgage Loan must have a first Monthly
Payment due on or before July 1, 2005; (viii) reserved; (ix) the Subsequent Mortgage Loan will be underwritten in accordance with the criteria set forth under the section “Underwriting Guidelines—The Winter Group 

  

 -72- 

 
Underwriting Guidelines” in the Prospectus Supplement, (x) the Subsequent Mortgage Loan must provide for monthly interest payments due on the first day
of each calendar month, (xi) as of the Subsequent Transfer Date for such Subsequent Mortgage Loan, the Subsequent Mortgage Loan must be a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code and Treasury Regulations Section
1.860G-2 (as determined without regard to Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(a)(3) or any similar provision that treats a defective obligation as a qualified mortgage for a temporary period), (xii) as of the Subsequent Transfer Date for such
Subsequent Mortgage Loan, the Subsequent Mortgage Loan does not provide for interest other than at either (a) a single fixed rate in effect throughout the term of the Subsequent Mortgage Loan or (b) a “variable rate” (within the meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(a)(3)) in effect throughout the term of the Subsequent Mortgage Loan, (xiii) as of the Subsequent Transfer Date for such Subsequent Mortgage Loan, the Depositor would not, based on the delinquency status of such
Subsequent Mortgage Loan, institute foreclosure proceedings prior to the next scheduled payment date for such Subsequent Mortgage Loan, (xiv) as of the Subsequent Transfer Date for such Subsequent Mortgage Loan, the Subsequent Mortgage Loan was not
the subject of pending or final foreclosure proceedings and (xv) as of the Subsequent Transfer Date for such Subsequent Mortgage Loan, each of the representations and warranties of the Seller in the Sale Agreement shall be true, complete and correct
with respect to such Subsequent Mortgage Loan. 
  
 (d) Following
the purchase of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans by the Trust Fund, the Mortgage Loans (including the Subsequent Mortgage Loans) will have characteristics that, as of the Subsequent Cut-off Date, are not materially inconsistent with the Initial
Mortgage Loans. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Subsequent
Mortgage Loan may be rejected by a Rating Agency if the inclusion of any such Subsequent Mortgage Loan would adversely affect the ratings of any Class of Certificates. 
  
 SECTION 2.12. Permitted Activities of the Trust. The Trust is created for the object and purpose of engaging in the
Permitted Activities. 
  
 SECTION 2.13. Qualifying Special
Purpose Entity. For purposes of SFAS 140, the parties hereto intend that the Trust Fund shall be treated as a “qualifying special purpose entity” as such term is used in SFAS 140 and any successor rule thereto and its power and
authority as stated in Section 2.11 of this Agreement shall be limited in accordance with paragraph 35 or SFAS 140. 
  
 ARTICLE III 
  
 ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING 
 OF MORTGAGE LOANS 
  
 SECTION 3.01. Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans. 
  
 For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with
this Agreement and Accepted Servicing Practices. In connection with such servicing and administration, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or through subservicers as provided in Section 3.02 hereof, to do or cause to
be done any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such servicing and administration, including but not limited to, the power and authority, subject to the terms hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the manner
provided in this Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and other Liquidation Proceeds and (iv) subject to Section 3.12(a), to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage
Loan; 

  

 -73- 

 
provided that, subject to Section 6.03, the Servicer shall not take any action that is inconsistent with or prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund or the
Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan serviced by it under this Agreement or the rights and interests of the other parties to this Agreement except as otherwise required by this Agreement or by law. The Servicer shall not make or permit any
modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan which would cause any of the REMICs provided for herein to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860G(a) or 860G(d) of the Code. The
Servicer shall represent and protect the interest of the Trust Fund in the same manner as each currently protects its own interest in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan, but in any
case not in any manner that is a lesser standard than that provided in the first sentence of this Section 3.01. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer, in its own name or in the name of the Depositor and the Trustee, is
hereby authorized and empowered by the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee, when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Securities
Administrator, the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, subordinations and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and
with respect to the Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Servicer shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and/or the Trustee such documents requiring execution and delivery by
either or both of them as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans, to the extent that the Servicer is not permitted to execute and deliver such documents pursuant to the preceding sentence.
Upon receipt of such documents, the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and/or the Trustee shall execute such documents and deliver them to the Servicer. For purposes of this Section 3.01, the Trustee hereby will provide to the Servicer, upon
reasonable request, powers of attorney to execute and file any and all documents necessary to fulfill the obligations of the Servicer under this Section 3.01. 
  

The Servicer shall deliver a list of Servicing Officers to the Securities Administrator and the Trustee by the Closing Date. 
  
 The Servicer for each related Mortgage Loan has fully furnished, in
accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information (i.e., favorable and unfavorable) on its borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian, and Trans Union Credit Information Company (three
of the credit repositories), on a monthly basis. 
  
 The Servicer
will transmit full-file credit reporting data for each Mortgage Loan pursuant to Fannie Mae Guide Announcement 97-02 and that for each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer agrees that it shall report one of the following statuses each month as follows:
current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed or charged-off. 
  
 The Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the Subservicer, when the Servicer or the Subservicer, as the
case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS System, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and
the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee and its successors and
assigns. Any reasonable expenses incurred in connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence or as a result of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue operations in connection with the MERS System, shall be subject to
withdrawal by the Servicer from the Collection Account. 
  

 -74- 

 SECTION 3.02. Servicing and Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of the Servicer.

  
 (a) The Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any
Mortgage Loan by a subservicer, which may be an affiliate (each, a “Subservicer”) pursuant to a subservicing agreement (each, a “Subservicing Agreement”); provided, however, that (i) such subservicing arrangement and the terms of
the related Subservicing Agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans in a manner consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder and (ii) that such Subservicing Agreement would not result in a withdrawal or
downgrading by any Rating Agency of the ratings of any Certificates evidenced by a letter to that effect delivered by each Rating Agency to the Depositor. Notwithstanding the provisions of any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this
Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Depositor, the Securities Administrator,
the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or
arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. Every Subservicing Agreement entered into
by the Servicer shall contain a provision giving any successor servicer the option to terminate such agreement in the event a successor servicer is appointed. All actions of each Subservicer performed pursuant to the related Subservicing Agreement
shall be performed as an agent of the Servicer with the same force and effect as if performed directly by the Servicer. The Servicer shall deliver to the Securities Administrator copies of all Subservicing Agreements. The Trustee shall have no
obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to a Subservicer including no obligation, duty or liability to monitor such Subservicer or to pay a Subservicer’s fees and expenses. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall be entitled to outsource one or more separate servicing functions to a
Person (each, an “Outsourcer”) that does not meet the eligibility requirements for a Subservicer, so long as such outsourcing does not constitute the delegation of the Servicer’s obligation to perform all or substantially all of the
servicing of the related Mortgage Loans to such Outsourcer. In such event, the use by the Servicer of any such Outsourcer shall not release the Servicer from any of its obligations hereunder and the Servicer shall remain responsible hereunder for
all acts and omissions of such Outsourcer as fully as if such acts and omissions were those of the Servicer, and the Servicer shall pay all fees and expenses of the Outsourcer from its own funds. 
  
 (b) For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have
received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are received by a subservicer regardless of whether such payments are remitted by the subservicer to the Servicer. 
  
 SECTION 3.03. Rights of the Depositor, the Securities Administrator, the
Backup Servicer and the Trustee in Respect of the Servicer. 
  
 None of the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer nor the Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Servicer, and none of them is obligated to supervise the performance
of the Servicer hereunder or otherwise. 
  
 SECTION 3.04. The
Servicing Administrator or Backup Servicer to Act as Servicer. 
  
 Subject to Sections 7.04 and 8.02, in the event that the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of Default), the successor servicer (which may be the Securities Administrator, the
Servicing Administrator, or the Backup Servicer pursuant to Section 

  

 -75- 

 
8.02), shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder arising thereafter (except that the Servicing Administrator or
Backup Servicer shall not be (i) liable for losses of the Servicer or any acts or omissions of such predecessor Servicer hereunder, (ii) obligated to make Advances or Servicing Advance if it is prohibited from doing so by applicable law, (iii)
obligated to effectuate repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage Loans hereunder, including pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03 hereof, or (iv) deemed to have made any representations and warranties hereunder, including pursuant to Section 2.04 or the
first paragraph of Section 7.02 hereof; provided, however that the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer (subject to clause (ii) above) or its designee, in its capacity as the successor servicer, shall immediately assume the terminated or
resigning Servicer’s obligation to make Advances and Servicing Advances). No such termination shall affect any obligation of the Servicer to pay amounts owed under this Agreement and to perform its duties under this Agreement until its
successor assumes all of its rights and obligations hereunder. If the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default), the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer (or any other successor
servicer) may, at its option, succeed to any rights and obligations of the Servicer under any subservicing agreement in accordance with the terms thereof; provided, however, that the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer (or any other
successor servicer) shall not incur any liability or have any obligations in its capacity as servicer under a subservicing agreement arising prior to the date of such succession unless it expressly elects to succeed to the rights and obligations of
the Servicer thereunder; and the Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under the subservicing agreement arising prior to the date of such succession. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event will
a successor servicer be liable for any expenses or liabilities that were incurred by a predecessor servicer. To the extent any costs or expenses, including without limitation Servicing Transfer Costs incurred by the Servicing Administrator or the
Backup Servicer in connection with this Section 3.04, are not paid by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement within 30 days of the date of the Servicing Administrator’s or the Backup Servicer’s invoice, as applicable, thereof, such
amounts shall be payable out of funds on deposit in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account. The terminated Servicer shall reimburse the Trust Fund for any such expense incurred by the Trust Fund upon receipt of a reasonably detailed invoice
evidencing such expenses. If the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer is unwilling or unable to act as servicer, the Servicing Administrator shall seek to appoint a successor servicer that is eligible in accordance with the criteria
specified this Agreement. 
  
 The Servicer shall, upon request of
the Securities Administrator, the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer, but at the expense of the Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each subservicing agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being
serviced and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the subservicing agreement to the assuming party. 
  
 In the event that the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be able to be the Servicer hereunder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the
Trustee and the Depositor hereby agree that within 10 Business Days of delivery to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator by the Servicing Rights Pledgee of a letter signed by the Servicer whereby the Servicer shall resign as Servicer under
this Agreement, the Servicing Rights Pledgee or its designee shall be appointed as successor Servicer (provided that at the time of such appointment the Servicing Rights Pledgee or such designee meets the requirements of a successor Servicer set
forth above) and the Servicing Rights Pledgee agrees to be subject to the terms of this Agreement. 
  
 Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in the event that any of the Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer or the Securities Administrator
becomes the successor servicer hereunder, such party shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee at the full Servicing Fee Rate (i.e., the SLS Servicing Fee Rate shall be deemed to be 0.50% per annum). In addition, none of the Servicing
Administrator, the Backup Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee shall have any obligation to attempt to minimize the SLS Servicing Fee Rate in the event of the need to solicit a successor servicer.

 SECTION 3.05. Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Collection Account; Servicing Administrator
Collection Account; Certificate Account. 
  
 (a) The
Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and
the terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy. Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any penalty interest, or (ii) subject to Section 3.01, extend
the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period not greater than 180 days; provided, however, that any extension pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any
computation hereunder, except as provided below. In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (ii) above, subject to Section 5.01, the Servicer shall make any Advances on the related Mortgage Loan during the scheduled period 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 Servicer, such default is
reasonably foreseeable, the Servicer, subject to the provisions of Section 3.01, may also waive, modify or vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including modifications that would change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of principal or interest
or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan), accept payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated Principal Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan, 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 Servicer shall adhere to the standards of Section 3.01. The Servicer’s analysis supporting any forbearance and the conclusion that any
forbearance meets the standards of Section 3.01 shall be reflected in writing in the Mortgage File. 
  
 (b) The Servicer will not waive any Prepayment Penalty or portion thereof unless, (i) the enforceability thereof shall have been limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, moratorium, receivership or other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally or is otherwise prohibited by law, or (ii) the collectability thereof shall have been limited due to acceleration in connection with a
foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or (iii) the Servicer has not been provided with information sufficient to enable it to collect the Prepayment Penalty, or (iv) in the 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 Penalty and related Mortgage Loan and (z) doing so is standard and
customary in servicing similar Mortgage Loans (including any waiver of a Prepayment Penalty in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that is related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default). Except as provided in the preceding
sentence, in no event will the Servicer waive a Prepayment Penalty in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that is not related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default. If the Servicer waives or does not collect all or a portion
of a Prepayment Penalty relating to a Principal Prepayment in full or in part due to any action or omission of the Servicer, other than as provided above, the Servicer shall deposit the amount of such Prepayment Penalty (or such portion thereof as
had been waived for deposit) into the Collection Account for distribution in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. In connection with any waiver of a Prepayment Penalty by the Servicer, the Servicer shall account for such waiver in its
monthly reports as agreed upon by the Servicer and the Credit Risk Manager. 
  

 -77- 

 (c) The Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in litigation with respect to collection of
any payment (whether under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any public or governmental authority with respect to a taking or condemnation) if it reasonably believes that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other instrument
pursuant to which such payment is required is prohibited by applicable law. 
  
 (d) The Servicer shall establish and initially maintain, on behalf of the Certificateholders, one or more Collection Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled “[Servicer’s Name], as
servicer for U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee, in trust for the Holders of Terwin Mortgage Trust 2005-6HE, Asset-Backed Certificates, Series TMTS 2005-6HE.” The Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account daily, within two
Business Days of receipt thereof, in immediately available funds, the following payments and collections received or made by it on and after the Cut-Off Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans (or Subsequent Cut-off Date with respect to Subsequent
Mortgage Loans): 
  
 (i) all payments on account of principal,
including Principal Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans, other than principal due on the Mortgage Loans on or prior to the Cut-off Date or Subsequent Cut-off Date, as applicable; 
  
 (ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans net of the portion of the Aggregate Servicing Fee permitted
to be retained by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.15 other than interest due on the Mortgage Loans on or prior to the Cut-off Date or Subsequent Cut-off Date, as applicable; 
  
 (iii) all Liquidation Proceeds, other than proceeds to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or
released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer’s normal servicing procedures; 
  
 (iv) all Subsequent Recoveries received by the Servicer; 
  
 (v) all Compensating Interest; 
  
 (vi) any amount required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.05(g) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments; 
  
 (vii) [RESERVED]; 
  
 (viii) all Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 5.01; 
  
 (ix) all Prepayment Penalties collected by the Servicer; and 
  
 (x) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder. 
  
 The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Servicer into the Collection Account shall be exclusive, it being
understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, late payment charges, insufficient funds charges and payments in the nature of assumption fees (i.e. fees related to the assumption of a Mortgage Loan upon the purchase of
the related Mortgaged Property) and other similar ancillary fees (other than Prepayment Penalties) if collected, need not be remitted by the Servicer. In the event that the Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be remitted and not
otherwise subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof, it may at any time withdraw or direct the Securities Administrator, or such other institution maintaining the Collection Account, to withdraw such amount from the Collection Account,
any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Servicer 

  

 -78- 

 
shall maintain adequate records with respect to all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section. All funds deposited in the Collection Account shall be held in
trust for the Certificateholders until withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.08. In no event shall the Securities Administrator or the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals from the Collection Account at the direction of the Servicer. The
Collection Account may be an interest bearing account. 
  
 The
Servicer shall give notice to the Securities Administrator, the Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer and the Trustee of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change thereof. Not later than
twenty days after each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall forward to the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Depositor the most current available bank statement for the Collection Account. Copies of such statement shall be provided by
the Securities Administrator to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Securities Administrator as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is
delivered by the Servicer to the Securities Administrator. 
  
 (e) The Servicing Administrator shall establish and maintain an account, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, as a segregated account (the “Servicing Administrator Collection Account”), which shall be an Eligible Account.
The Servicing Administrator shall, promptly upon receipt from the Servicer on the Servicer Remittance Date, deposit into the Servicing Administrator Collection Account and retain on deposit until the related Servicing Administrator Remittance Date,
the following amounts: 
  
 (i) the aggregate amount remitted by
the Servicer to the Servicing Administrator pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(viii); and 
  
 (ii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be deposited in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account pursuant to this Agreement including, but not limited to, any amounts due to the Trustee,
the Securities Administrator or the Backup Servicer pursuant to Section 3.08 and Article IX herein. 
  
 In the event that the Servicer shall remit to the Servicing Administrator any amount not required to be remitted, the Servicer may at any time in writing
direct the Servicing Administrator to withdraw such amount from the Servicing Administrator Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering written notice to the Servicing
Administrator (upon which the Servicing Administrator may conclusively rely) which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account. All funds deposited in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account
shall be held by the Servicing Administrator in trust for the Certificateholders until disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.08(b). In no event shall the Servicing Administrator incur liability for
withdrawals from the Servicing Administrator Collection Account at the direction of the Servicer. The Servicing Administrator shall give notice to the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Backup Servicer and the Servicer of the location of the
Servicing Administrator Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change thereof. The Servicing Administrator Collection Account may be an interest bearing account. 
  
 (f) The Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain, on behalf of
the Certificateholders, the Certificate Account. The Securities Administrator shall, promptly upon receipt from the Servicing Administrator on the Servicing Administrator Remittance Date, deposit or cause to be deposited in the Certificate Account
and retain therein the following: 
  
 (i) The aggregate amount
remitted by the Servicing Administrator to the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 3.08(b); and; 
  

 -79- 

 (ii) the Purchase Price and any Substitution Adjustment Amount; 
  
 (iii) reserved; and 
  
 (iv) the Optional Termination Price paid by SLS pursuant to Section 10.01.

  
 The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Servicer and
Servicing Administrator and deposit by the Servicer and Servicing Administrator into the Certificate Account shall be exclusive. In the event that the Servicing Administrator shall remit to the Securities Administrator any amount not required to be
remitted, it may at any time in writing direct the Securities Administrator to withdraw such amount from the Certificate Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering written notice
to the Securities Administrator (upon which the Securities Administrator may conclusively rely) which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Certificate Account. All funds deposited in the Certificate Account shall be held by the Securities
Administrator in trust for the Certificateholders until disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.08. In no event shall the Securities Administrator incur liability for withdrawals from the Certificate
Account at the direction of the Servicing Administrator. The Securities Administrator shall give notice to the Trustee, the Servicing Administrator and the Servicer of the location of the Certificate Account maintained by it when established and
prior to any change thereof. Amounts in the Certificate Account shall remain uninvested, but the Certificate Account may be an interest bearing account; provided that such interest must accrue on a Permitted Investment. 
  
 (g) Each institution that maintains a Collection Account or the Servicing
Administrator Collection Account shall invest the funds in each such account, as directed by the Servicer, the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, in writing, in Permitted Investments, which shall mature not later than (i) in the case of the
Collection Account the Business Day preceding the related Servicer Remittance Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such Collection Account or is otherwise immediately available, then such
Permitted Investment shall mature not later than the Servicer Remittance Date) and (ii) in the case of the Servicing Administrator Collection Account, the Business Day preceding the related Servicing Administrator Remittance Date (except that if
such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such Servicing Administrator Collection Account or is otherwise immediately available, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than each Servicing
Administrator Remittance Date) and, in each case, shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. All income and gain net of any losses realized from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account shall be for the benefit of the Servicer as servicing compensation and shall be remitted to it monthly as provided herein. The
amount of any losses incurred in the Collection Account in respect of any such investments shall be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account out of the Servicer’s own funds immediately as realized. All income and gain net of any
losses realized from amounts on deposit in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account shall be for the benefit of the Servicing Administrator as master servicing compensation and shall be remitted to it monthly as provided herein. The amount of
any losses incurred in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account in respect of any such investments shall be deposited by the Servicing Administrator in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account out of such Servicing Administrator’s
own funds immediately as realized. The Securities Administrator shall retain the funds in the Certificate Account uninvested. 
  

 -80- 

 SECTION 3.06. Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Escrow Accounts. 
  
 To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer shall
establish and maintain one or more accounts (each, an “Escrow Account”) and deposit and retain therein all collections from the Mortgagors (or Advances by the Servicer) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums or
comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall require the Servicer to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in violation of applicable law. 
  
 Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may be made only to effect timely payment of taxes,
assessments, hazard insurance premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or comparable items, to reimburse the Servicer out of related collections for any payments made pursuant to Sections 3.01 hereof (with respect to taxes and assessments and
insurance premiums), to refund to any Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages, to pay interest, if required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage or Mortgage Note, to Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account or to clear and
terminate the Escrow Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.01 hereof. The Escrow Accounts shall not be a part of the Trust Fund. 
  
 SECTION 3.07. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Mortgage Loans. 
  
 (a) The Servicer shall afford the Depositor, the Securities Administrator
and the Trustee reasonable access to all records and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans and all accounts, insurance information and other matters relating to this Agreement, such access being afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable
request and during normal business hours at the office designated by the Servicer. 
  
 (b) Upon reasonable advance notice in writing if required by federal regulation, the Servicer will provide to each Certificateholder that is a savings and loan association, bank or insurance company certain reports
and reasonable access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans sufficient to permit such Certificateholder to comply with applicable regulations of the OTS or other regulatory authorities with respect to investment in the
Certificates; provided, that the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each such Certificateholder for actual expenses incurred by the Servicer in providing such reports and access. 
  
 (c) Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Servicer to
observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors, and the failure of the Servicers to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section.
Nothing in this Section 3.07 shall require the Servicer to collect, create, collate or otherwise generate any information that it does not generate in its usual course of business. The Servicer shall not be required to make copies of or ship
documents to any party unless provisions have been made for the reimbursement of the costs thereof. 
  
 SECTION 3.08. Withdrawals from a Collection Account, Servicing Administrator Collection Account and Certificate Account. 
  
 (a) The Servicer shall from time to time, make withdrawals from the
Collection Account for the following purposes: 
  
 (i) to pay to
the Servicer (to the extent not previously paid to or withheld by the Servicer), as servicing compensation in accordance with Section 3.15, that portion of any payment of interest that equals the Servicing Fee permitted to be retained by the
Servicer for the period with respect to which such interest payment was made, and, as additional servicing compensation, those other amounts set forth in Section 3.15; 
  

 -81- 

 (ii) to reimburse the Servicer for Advances made by it (or to reimburse the Advance Financing Person for
Advances made by it) with respect to the Mortgage Loans, such right of reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (ii) being limited to amounts received on particular Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was made (including, for this
purpose, Liquidation Proceeds) that represent late recoveries of payments of principal and/or interest on such related Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was made; 
  
 (iii) to reimburse the Servicer for any Non-Recoverable Advance previously made and any Non-Recoverable Servicing Advances
previously made to the extent that, in the case of Non-Recoverable Servicing Advances, reimbursement therefor constitutes “unanticipated expenses” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii); 
  
 (iv) to pay to the Servicer earnings on or investment income with respect to
funds in or credited to the Collection Account;

the Servicer’s right to reimbursement of Servicing Advances pursuant to this subclause (vii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was made
(including, for this purpose, Liquidation Proceeds and purchase and repurchase proceeds) that represent late recoveries of the payments for which such advances were made pursuant to Section 3.01 or Section 3.06; 
  
 (viii) to pay to the Depositor or the Servicer, as applicable, with respect
to each Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.03 or 3.12, all amounts received thereon and not taken into account in determining the related Stated Principal Balance of such
repurchased Mortgage Loan; 
  
 (ix) to reimburse the Servicer,
the Servicing Administrator, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or the Depositor for expenses incurred by any of them in connection with the Mortgage Loans or Certificates and reimbursable pursuant to Section 3.25 or Section 7.03 hereof
provided that reimbursement therefor would constitute “unanticipated” expenses within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii); 
  

(x) to reimburse the Securities Administrator and the Trustee for enforcement expenses reasonably incurred in respect of a breach of defect giving
rise to the purchase obligation in Section 2.03 that were incurred in the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loans including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of the purchase obligation; provided that any such expenses will be reimbursable
under this subclause (x) only to the that such expenses would constitute “unanticipated expenses” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) if paid by one of the REMICs provided for herein; 
  
 (xi) to pay the Trustee and/or Securities Administrator any amounts owed to
them pursuant to Article IX; 
  

 -82- 

 (xii) to withdraw pursuant to Section 3.05 any amount deposited in the Collection Account and not

the Interest Funds, the Principal Funds and the Administration Fee (other than the Servicing Fee) (collectively, the “Servicer Withdrawals”), to the extent on deposit, and such amount shall be deposited in the Servicing Administrator
Collection Account; provided, however, if the Servicing Administrator does not receive the Servicer Withdrawals by 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the Servicer Withdrawals shall be deposited by the Servicing Administrator in the Servicing Administrator
Collection Account by 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day. In the event the Servicer Withdrawals are not deposited by 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the Servicer shall pay, out of its own funds, interest on such amount at a rate equal to the
Servicing Administrator’s Prime Rate for each date or part thereof. 
  
 The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account. 
  
 The Servicer shall provide written notification to the Trustee, the Servicing
Administrator and the Securities Administrator on or prior to the next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date upon making any withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclauses (iii) and (vii) above. 
  
 Unless otherwise specified, any amounts reimbursable to the Servicer or the
Securities Administrator from amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, the Servicing Administrator Collection Account or the Certificate Accounts shall be deemed to come from first, Interest Funds, and thereafter, Principal Funds for the
related Distribution Date. 
  
 (b) The Servicing Administrator

 (i) to withdraw any amounts deposited in such Servicing Administrator Collection Account and not required to be deposited therein; 
  
 (ii) to clear and terminate the Servicing Administrator Collection Account
upon termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01 hereof;

 In addition, no later than 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the Servicing Administrator Remittance Date, the Servicing Administrator shall cause to be withdrawn
from the Servicing Administrator Collection Account the Interest Funds, the Principal Funds and the Administration Fee (other than the Servicing Fee) (collectively, the “Servicing Administrator Withdrawals”), to the extent on deposit, and
such amount shall be deposited in the Certificate Account; provided, however, if the Securities Administrator does not receive such Servicing Administrator Withdrawals by 4:00 p.m. Eastern Time, such Servicing 

  

 -83- 

 
Administrator Withdrawals shall be deposited by the Securities Administrator in the Certificate Account by 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time on the next Business Day.
In the event such Servicing Administrator Withdrawals are not deposited by 2:00 p.m. Eastern Time, the Servicing Administrator shall pay, out of its own funds, interest on such amount at a rate equal to the Federal Funds Rate for each date or part
thereof. 
  
 The Servicing Administrator shall keep and maintain
separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Servicing Administrator Collection Account. 
  
 Unless otherwise specified, any amounts reimbursable to the Servicer, the Servicing Administrator or the Trustee from
amounts on deposit in the Collection Account, the Servicing Administrator Collection Account or the Certificate Accounts shall be deemed to come from first, Interest Funds, and thereafter, Principal Funds for the related Distribution Date.

  
 (c) The Securities Administrator shall withdraw funds from
the Certificate Account for distribution to the Certificateholders in the manner specified in this Agreement in Section 5.05 (and to withhold from the amounts so withdrawn, the amount of any taxes that it is authorized to retain pursuant to this
Agreement). In addition, the Securities Administrator shall from time to time make withdrawals from the Certificate Account for the following purposes: 
  
 (i) [RESERVED] 
  
 (ii) to reimburse the Seller, the Servicing Administrator and/or the Depositor for expenses incurred by any of them and reimbursable pursuant to Section
10.01 hereof;

made by the Servicing Administrator in its individual capacity as successor servicer or the Custodial Agreement to the extent such payment or reimbursement in accordance with the provisions of the Custodial Agreement would constitute an
“unanticipated expense” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii). 
  
 SECTION 3.09. [RESERVED] 
  
 SECTION 3.10. [RESERVED] 
  
 SECTION 3.11. Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. 
  
 When a Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, except as set forth
below, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance or prospective 

  

 -84- 

 
conveyance, exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of the related Mortgage Loan under any “due-on-sale” clause contained in the related
Mortgage or Mortgage Note; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not exercise any such right if the “due-on-sale” clause, in the reasonable belief of the Servicer, is not enforceable under applicable law;
provided, further, that the Servicer shall not take any action in relation to the enforcement of any “due-on-sale” clause which would adversely affect or jeopardize coverage under any Required Insurance Policy. An Opinion of
Counsel at the expense of the Servicer (which expense shall constitute a Servicing Advance) delivered to the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Depositor shall conclusively establish the reasonableness of the Servicer’s belief that
any “due-on-sale” clause is not enforceable under applicable law. In such event, the Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to enter into an assumption and modification agreement with the Person to whom such property has been or is about
to be conveyed, pursuant to which such Person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable law or the Mortgage, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. If the foregoing is not permitted under applicable law, the Servicer
is 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 Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Note. In addition to the
foregoing, the Servicer shall not be required to enforce any “due-on-sale” clause if in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, entering into an assumption and modification agreement with a Person to whom such property shall be conveyed
and releasing the original Mortgagor from liability would be in the best interests of the Certificateholders. The Mortgage Loan, as assumed, shall conform in all respects to the requirements, representations and warranties of this Agreement. The
Servicer shall notify the Securities Administrator that any such assumption or substitution agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Securities Administrator the original copy of such assumption or substitution agreement (indicating the
Mortgage File to which it relates) which copy shall be added by the Securities Administrator to the related Mortgage File and which 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. The Servicer shall be responsible for recording any such assumption or substitution agreements. In connection with any such assumption or substitution agreement, the Monthly Payment on the related Mortgage
Loan shall not be changed but shall remain as in effect immediately prior to the assumption or substitution, the stated maturity or outstanding principal amount of such Mortgage Loan shall not be changed nor shall any required monthly payments of
principal or interest be deferred or forgiven. Any fee collected by the Servicer for consenting to any such conveyance or entering into an assumption or substitution agreement shall be retained by or paid to the Servicer as additional servicing
compensation. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any
other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the Servicer
may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever. 
  
 SECTION 3.12. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; Determination of Excess Proceeds. 
  
 (a) The Servicer shall use reasonable efforts consistent with the Accepted Servicing Practices to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the
ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of Delinquent payments. In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion,
the Servicer shall follow such practices and procedures as (i) the Servicer shall deem necessary or advisable, (ii) shall be normal and usual in the Servicer’s general mortgage servicing activities, and (iii) the Servicer shall determine to be
consistent with the requirements of the insurer under any Required Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with the restoration of any property that shall have suffered
damage due to an uninsured cause unless it shall determine (i) that such restoration increase the proceeds of liquidation of 

  

 -85- 

 
the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds
(respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.08 hereof). The Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided,
however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section 3.08 hereof. If the Servicer has knowledge that a Mortgaged Property that the Servicer is
contemplating acquiring in foreclosure or by deed-in-lieu of foreclosure is located within a one-mile radius of any site with environmental or hazardous waste risks known to the Servicer, the Servicer will, prior to acquiring the Mortgaged Property,
consider such risks and only take action in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. The Servicer shall not have any obligation to purchase any Mortgaged Property at any foreclosure sale. 
  
 With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be
taken in the name of the Trustee or its nominee. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to such
extent as is customary in the locality where such REO Property is located and may, incident to its conservation and protection of the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Servicer deems to be in the best
interest of the Servicer and the Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO Property. The Servicer or an affiliate may receive usual and customary real estate referral fees for real estate brokers in connection with the listing
and disposition of REO Property. The Servicer shall prepare a statement with respect to each REO Property that has been rented showing the aggregate rental income received and all expenses incurred in connection with the management and maintenance
of such REO Property at such times as is necessary to enable the Servicer to comply with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions. The net monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited in the Collection Account
no later than the close of business on each Determination Date. The Servicer shall perform the tax reporting and withholding related to foreclosures, abandonments and cancellation of indebtedness income as specified by Sections 1445, 6050J and 6050P
of the Code by preparing and filing such tax and information returns, as may be required. 
  
 In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property
prior to the expiration of three years from the end of the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund or, at the expense of the Trust Fund, obtain, in accordance with applicable procedures for obtaining an automatic extension of the grace period,
more than 60 days prior to the day on which such three-year period would otherwise expire, an extension of the three-year grace period, in which case such property must be disposed of prior to the end of such extension, unless the Trustee and
Securities Administrator shall have been supplied with an Opinion of Counsel (such Opinion of Counsel not to be an expense of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator), to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such Mortgaged Property
subsequent to such three-year period or extension will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of the Trust Fund or any of the REMICs provided for herein as defined in section 860F of the Code or cause any of the
REMICs provided for herein to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, in which case the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel).
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the production of income by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a
manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject the Trust Fund or any REMIC provided for herein
to the imposition of any federal, state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged under section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Servicer or the Depositor has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund with
respect to the imposition of any such taxes. 
  

 -86- 

 The decision of the Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted Mortgage Loan shall be subject to a
determination by the Servicer that the proceeds of such foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of bringing such a proceeding. The income earned from the management of any Mortgaged Properties acquired through foreclosure or other judicial
proceeding, net of reimbursement to the Servicer for expenses incurred (including any property or other taxes) in connection with such management and net of the Servicing Fee and any unreimbursed Advances, Servicing Advances and any management fee
paid or to be paid with respect to the management of such Mortgaged Property, shall be applied to the payment of principal of, and interest on, the related defaulted Mortgage Loans (with interest accruing as though such Mortgage Loans were still
current) and all such income shall be deemed, for all purposes in this Agreement, to be payments on account of principal and interest on the related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited into the Collection Account. To the extent the income received
during a Prepayment Period is in excess of the amount attributable to amortizing principal and accrued interest at the related Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage Loan, such excess shall be considered to be a partial Principal Prepayment for all
purposes hereof. 
  
 The Liquidation Proceeds from any liquidation
of a Mortgage Loan, net of any payment to the Servicer as provided above, shall be deposited in the Collection Account on the next succeeding Determination Date following receipt thereof for distribution on the related Distribution Date. 

 
 The proceeds of any Liquidated Loan, as well as any recovery resulting
from a partial collection of Liquidation Proceeds or any income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees with
respect to such Liquidated Loan, pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(vi) or this Section 3.12; second, to reimburse the Servicer for any unreimbursed Advances with respect to such Liquidated Loan, pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(ii) or this Section 3.12; third,
to any prepayment penalties and then to accrued and unpaid interest (to the extent no Advance has been made for such amount) on the Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, at the Net Mortgage Rate to the Due Date occurring in the month in which such
amounts are required to be distributed; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. 
  
 (b) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall determine the respective aggregate amounts of Excess Proceeds, if any, that occurred in the related
Prepayment Period. 
  
 (c) The Servicer, in its sole discretion,
shall have the right to elect (by written notice sent to the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Seller) to purchase for its own account from the Trust Fund any Mortgage Loan that is 90 days or more Delinquent at a price equal to the
Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan purchased hereunder shall be delivered to the Securities Administrator for deposit to the Certificate Account and the Securities Administrator, upon receipt of such confirmation of deposit and
a Request for Release from the Servicer in the form of Exhibit I hereto, shall release or cause to be released to the Servicer the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the
Servicer, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Servicer any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the Servicer shall succeed to all the Trustee’s right, title and interest in and to such Mortgage Loan and all
security and documents related thereto. Such assignment shall be an assignment outright and not for security. The Servicer shall thereupon own such Mortgage Loan, and all security and documents, free of any further obligation to the Securities
Administrator or the Certificateholders with respect thereto. 
  
 (d) Upon the charge-off of any Mortgage Loan by the Servicer, the Servicer shall transfer servicing of such Mortgage Loan to the entity designated by the Servicing Rights Owner, 

  

 -87- 

 
which entity shall not be JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A.. Transfer of servicing will be completed no later than 30 days following the date of charge-off. The
entity designated by the Servicing Rights Owner will service such charged-off Mortgage Loan in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. 
  
 SECTION 3.13. Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files. 
  
 Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be
escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer will promptly notify the Custodian by delivering a Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit I. Upon receipt of a copy of such request, the Custodian shall promptly
release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer, and the Servicer is authorized to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS System of any such Mortgage if applicable, and the Trustee shall at the Servicer’s written direction
execute and deliver to the Servicer the request for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of the Mortgage in each case provided by the Servicer, together with the Mortgage
Note with written evidence of cancellation thereon. Expenses incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Mortgagor to the extent permitted by law, and otherwise to the Trust Fund to
the extent such expenses constitute “unanticipated expenses” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii). From time to time and as shall be appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan,
including for such purpose, collection under any policy of flood insurance, any fidelity bond or errors or omissions policy, or for the purposes of effecting a partial release of any Mortgaged Property from the lien of the Mortgage or the making of
any corrections to the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or any of the other documents included in the Mortgage File, the Custodian, upon delivery to the Custodian of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit I signed by a Servicing Officer, release
the Mortgage File to the Servicer. Subject to the further limitations set forth below, the Servicer shall cause the Mortgage File or documents so released to be returned to the Custodian when the need therefor by the Servicer no longer exists,
unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof are deposited in the Collection Account. 
  
 Each Request for Release may be delivered to the Custodian (i) via mail or courier, (ii) via facsimile or (iii) by such other means, including, without
limitation, electronic or computer readable medium, as the Servicer and the Custodian shall mutually agree. The Custodian shall promptly release the related Mortgage File(s) within five (5) Business Days of receipt of a properly completed Request
for Release pursuant to clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above. Receipt of a properly completed Request for Release shall be authorization to the Custodian to release such Mortgage Files, provided the Custodian has determined that such Request for Release
has been executed, with respect to clauses (i) or (ii) above, or approved, with respect to clause (iii) above, by an authorized Servicing Officer of the Servicer, and so long as the Custodian complies with its duties and obligations under the
agreement. If the Trustee or its designee is unable to release the Mortgage Files within the period previously specified, the Custodian shall immediately notify the Servicer indicating the reason for such delay. If the Servicer is required to pay
penalties or damages due to the Custodian’s negligent failure to release the related Mortgage File or the Custodian’s negligent failure to execute and release documents in a timely manner, the Custodian, shall be liable for such penalties
or damages respectively caused by it. 
  
 Notwithstanding the
foregoing, in connection with a Principal Prepayment in full of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer may request release of the related Mortgage File from the Custodian, in accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement, in the event the Servicer fails to do so. If requested by the Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer or the Servicer, the Custodian shall forward such Mortgage File or other requested items to the requesting party by overnight mail
at the requesting party’s expense. 
  

 -88- 

 If the Servicer at any time seeks to initiate a foreclosure proceeding in respect of any Mortgaged
Property as authorized by this Agreement, the Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, for signature, as appropriate, any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary to effectuate such
foreclosure or any legal action brought to obtain judgment against the Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or to obtain a deficiency judgment or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or
otherwise available at law or in equity. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall cause possession of any Mortgage File or of the documents therein that shall have been released by the Custodian to be returned to the Custodian promptly
after possession thereof shall have been released by the Custodian unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Collection Account, and the Servicer shall have
delivered to the Custodian a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit I or (ii) the Mortgage File or document shall have 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 and the Servicer shall have delivered to the Custodian an Officer’s Certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person
to which the Mortgage File or the documents therein were delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. 
  
 SECTION 3.14. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of the Servicer to be Held for the Trustee. 
  
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, the Servicer shall
transmit to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee as required by this Agreement all documents and instruments in respect of a Mortgage Loan coming into the possession of the Servicer from time to time required to be delivered to the Trustee
pursuant to the terms hereof and shall account fully to the Securities Administrator for any funds received by the Servicer or which otherwise are collected by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage
Loan. All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds, including but not limited
to, any funds on deposit in the Collection Account, shall be held by the Servicer for and on behalf of the Trust Fund and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Trust Fund, subject to the applicable provisions of this Agreement.
The Servicer also agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any Mortgage File or any funds that are deposited in the Collection Account or in any Escrow Account, or any funds that otherwise are or may become due or payable to the Trustee, or
the Securities Administrator as its designee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other encumbrance, or assert by legal action or otherwise any claim or right of set
off against any Mortgage File or any funds collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan, except, however, that the Servicer shall be entitled to set off against and deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to
the Servicer under this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 3.15. Servicing
Compensation. 
  
 As compensation for its activities
hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to retain or withdraw from the Collection Account out of each payment of interest on a Mortgage Loan included in the Trust Fund an amount equal to the product of (x) the SLS Servicing Fee Rate and (y) the
Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan as of the immediately preceding Distribution Date. 
  
 Additional servicing compensation in the form of any Excess Proceeds, late payment fees, release and satisfaction fees (to the extent allowed by law), bad
check charges, assumption fees (i.e. fees related to the assumption of a Mortgage Loan upon the purchase of the related Mortgaged Property) and similar 

  

 -89- 

 
items payable by the Mortgagor, and all income and gain net of any losses realized from Permitted Investments in the Collection Account shall be retained by
the Servicer to the extent not required to be deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Sections 3.05, or 3.12(a) hereof. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder
and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided in Sections 3.08 and 3.12 hereof. The Servicer shall not be entitled to any Prepayment Penalties. In no event shall the Trustee, the Servicing Administrator or the
Securities Administrator be liable for any Servicing Fee or for any differential between the Aggregate Servicing Fee and the amount necessary to induce a successor servicer to act as successor servicer under this Agreement. 
  
 SECTION 3.16. Access to Certain Documentation. 
  
 The Servicer shall provide to the OTS and the FDIC and to comparable
regulatory authorities supervising Holders of the Certificates and the examiners and supervisory agents of the OTS, the FDIC and such other authorities, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable regulations of
the OTS and the FDIC. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable and prior written request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it provided, that the Servicer shall be entitled to
be reimbursed by each such Certificateholder for actual expenses incurred by the Servicer in providing such reports and access. Nothing in this Section shall limit the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure
of information regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of the Servicer to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section. 
  
 SECTION 3.17. Annual Statement as to Compliance. 
  
 Pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer shall deliver to the Servicing
Administrator and the Backup Servicer on or before March 15th of each year beginning in 2006, (or such other date

 For and on behalf of the Seller, the Credit Risk Manager will provide
reports and recommendations concerning certain delinquent and defaulted Mortgage Loans, and as to the collection of any Prepayment Penalties with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Such reports and recommendations will be based upon information provided
to the Credit Risk Manager pursuant to the Credit Risk Management Agreement, and the Credit Risk Manager shall look solely to the Servicer for all information and data (including loss and delinquency information and data) relating to the servicing
of the Mortgage Loans. Upon any termination of the Credit Risk Manager or the appointment of a successor Credit Risk Manager, the Securities Administrator, if it has been notified in writing of such termination or appointment, shall give written
notice thereof to the Servicer, the Servicing Administrator, the Trustee and the Depositor. 
  
 If Holders of the Certificates entitled to 66 2/3% or more of the Voting Rights

 SECTION 3.26. Nonsolicitation. 
  
 For as long as the Servicer services the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer covenants that it will not, and that it will ensure that its affiliates and agents,

by it to furnish to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator and the Backup Servicer a report stating that the SLS Serviced Mortgage Loans are
being serviced in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement or, if there has been a material default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such material default known to such auditor and the nature and status thereof and
the action being taken by SLS to cure such material default. The conclusions of the auditor shall be based on a statistical sample of the SLS Serviced Mortgage Loans and a review of SLS’s collection, default management, escrow administration,
cash management, insurance administration and quality control procedures. In the event that such firm requires the Securities Administrator to agree to the procedures performed by such firm, the Servicer shall direct the Securities Administrator in
writing to so agree; it being understood and agreed that the Securities Administrator will deliver such letter of agreement in conclusive reliance upon the direction of the Servicer and the Securities Administrator makes no independent inquiry or

perform and enforce the rights of the insured under such LPMI Policy. Except as expressly set forth herein, the Servicer shall have full authority on behalf of the Trust Fund to do anything it reasonably deems appropriate or desirable in connection
with the servicing, maintenance and administration of the LPMI Policy. The Servicer shall not modify or assume a Mortgage Loan covered by the LPMI Policy or take any other action with respect to the Mortgage Loan which would result in non-coverage
under the LPMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. If the LPMI insurer fails to pay a claim under the LPMI Policy as a result of breach by the Servicer of its obligations hereunder or
under the LPMI Policy, the Servicer shall be required to deposit in the related Collection Account on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance Date an amount equal to such unpaid claim from its own funds without any right to reimbursement from the
Trust Fund. The Servicer shall cooperate with the LPMI insurer and shall use its best efforts to furnish all reasonable aid, evidence and information in the possession of the Servicer to which such Servicer has access with respect to any LPMI Loan.
None of the Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator will under any circumstances be responsible for the servicing, maintenance or administration of the LPMI Policy or the payment of any fees or
premiums in connection therewith.

shall (i) maintain the Servicing Tape at an off-site location, (ii) provide ready access to the Servicing Tape to the Backup Servicer; and (iii) send the SLS Servicing Tape directly to the Backup Servicer in an electronic format acceptable to the

or permit the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans unless such sale is as a result of a repurchase of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement or Trustee has received a REMIC Opinion prepared at the expense of the Trust Fund; and
(b) other than with respect to a substitution pursuant to Section 2.03 of this Agreement or with respect to a withdrawal of amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account or the Capitalized Interest Account on or prior to June 24, 2005, accept any
contribution to any REMIC after the Startup Day without receipt of a Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the Trust Fund stating that such contribution will not result in the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC (including but not limited to the tax
on prohibited transactions as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(2) and the tax on prohibited contributions set forth on Section 860G(d) of the Code).

 The Servicing Administrator shall master service the Mortgage Loans and
shall have full power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of Section 9.13, to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the administration of the Mortgage Loans, including but not

assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan,
in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Servicing Administrator shall not (and, consistent with its responsibilities under Section 4.03, shall not permit the Servicer to) knowingly or
intentionally take any action, or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case
may be, would cause any REMIC formed hereby to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund or any REMIC provided for herein (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) unless the Servicing Administrator has received an Opinion of Counsel (but not at the expense of the Servicing Administrator) to the
effect that the contemplated action will not cause any REMIC formed hereby to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC formed hereby or the Trust Fund. The Trustee shall furnish the Servicing Administrator, upon
written request from a Servicing Officer, with any powers of attorney empowering the Servicing Administrator or the Servicer to execute and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and to

such other documents, as the Servicing Administrator or the Servicer may request, to enable the Servicing Administrator to master service and administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case in accordance with Accepted

any cost, liability or expense incurred by the Trustee in connection with such Person’s use or misuse of any such power of attorney). If the Servicing Administrator or the Trustee has been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in
which action is to be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Trustee or that the Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, the Servicing
Administrator shall join with the Trustee in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 9.12. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Servicing Administrator shall be an independent contractor and shall not, except in those
instances where it is taking action in the name of the Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the Trustee.

sent pursuant to the terms hereof with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute a Servicer Event of Default, the Servicing Administrator shall notify the Seller, the Securities Administrator, the Backup Servicer and
the Trustee thereof and the Servicing Administrator shall issue such notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate. 
  
 (b) The Servicing Administrator, for the benefit of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations
of the Servicer under this Agreement, and shall, in the event that the Servicer fails to perform its obligations in accordance with this Agreement, subject to the preceding paragraph and Article IX, cause the Trustee to terminate the rights and
obligations of the Servicer hereunder in accordance with the provisions of Article IX. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims 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 

  

 -98- 

 
Servicing Administrator, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicing Administrator
shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, provided that the Servicing Administrator shall not be required to prosecute or defend any legal action except to the extent that the Servicing Administrator shall have received reasonable
indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action. 
  
 (c) To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Servicing Administrator related to the termination of the Servicer, appointment of a successor Servicer or the transfer and assumption of the servicing by the Backup Servicer (including,
without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses and all due diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the potential termination of the Servicer as a result of a Servicer Event of Default and (ii) all costs and expenses

Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to such three-year period will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of any REMIC hereunder as defined in section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC hereunder to fail
to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding, in which case the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel) or (ii) the Servicer shall have
obtained, prior to the expiration of such three-year period, an extension of such three-year period in the manner contemplated by Section 856(e)(3) of the Code, in which case the three-year period shall be extended by the applicable extension
period. The Servicing Administrator shall cause the Servicer to protect and conserve, such REO Property in the manner and to the extent required by this Agreement, in accordance with the REMIC Provisions and in a manner that does not result in a tax

Certificate required under this Section or the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Servicing Administrator in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the

 The Servicer
shall deposit in the related Collection Account at the time described below an amount equal to, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, all Scheduled Payments of principal and interest at the Mortgage Rate less the Servicing Fee which were due on the

advance shortfalls of principal or interest resulting from any related bankruptcy proceedings or the application of the Relief Act. 
  
 To the extent required by Accepted Servicing Practices, the Servicer shall be obligated to make Advances in accordance with the provisions of this

deposit in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the
Collection Account, to the extent of any Amounts For Future Distribution on deposit therein (in which case it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of the Collection Account that Amounts For Future Distribution have been, as
permitted by this Section 5.01, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans. In

Advances and/or Servicing Advances to (i) a Person, which may be a special-purpose bankruptcy-remote entity (an “SPV”), (ii) a Person, which may simultaneously assign or pledge such rights to an SPV or (iii) a lender (a
“Lender”), which, in the case of any Person or SPV of the type described in either of the preceding clauses (i) or (ii), may directly or through other assignees and/or pledgees, assign or pledge such rights to a Person, which may include a
trustee acting on behalf of holders of debt instruments (any such Person or any such Lender, an “Advance Financing Person”), and/or (2) an Advance Financing Person agrees to fund all of the Advances and/or Servicing Advances required to be
made by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. No consent of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, Certificateholders or any other party shall be required before the Servicer may enter into an Advance Facility, nor shall the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator or the Certificateholders be a third party beneficiary of any obligation of an Advance Financing Person to the Servicer. Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which an Advance Financing Person agrees to
fund Advances and/or Servicing Advances, (A) the Servicer (i) shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement and (ii) shall not be relieved of such
obligations by virtue of such Advance Facility and (B) neither the Advance Financing Person nor the Servicer’s Assignee (as hereinafter defined) shall have any right to proceed against or otherwise contact any Mortgagor for the purpose of
collecting any payment that may be due with respect to any related Mortgage Loan or enforcing any covenant of such Mortgagor under the related Mortgage Loan documents. 
  
 (b) If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, the Servicer and the related Advance Financing Person shall deliver to
the Trustee, the Seller and the Depositor at the address set forth in Section 11.05 hereof a written notice (an “Advance Facility Notice”), stating (a) the identity of the Advance Financing Person, (b) the identity of the Person (the

shall agree to be bound by the provisions of this Section 5.02. The Advance Facility Notice shall be executed by the Advance Facility Person and the Servicer’s Assignee. Advance Reimbursement Amounts (i) shall consist solely of amounts in
respect of Advances and/or Servicing Advances for which the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse itself in accordance with Section 3.08 hereof, assuming the Servicer had made the related Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s), provided, in each
case, that such Advance or Servicing Advance was financed under the related Advance Facility, and (ii) shall not consist of amounts payable to a successor servicer in accordance with Section 3.08 hereof to the extent permitted under Section 5.02(e)
below. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding the existence of an Advance
Facility, the Servicer, on behalf of the Advance Financing Person and the Servicer’s Assignee, shall be entitled receive Advance Reimbursement Amounts in accordance with Section 3.08 hereof, which entitlement may be terminated by the Advance
Financing Person pursuant to a written notice executed by the Advance Financing Person (an “Advance Facility Default Notice”) to the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor in the manner set forth in Section 11.05 hereof.
With respect to any successor servicer to SLS, upon receipt of an Advance Facility Default Notice, such successor servicer shall no longer be entitled to receive Advance Reimbursement Amounts and the Servicer’s Assignee shall immediately have
the right to receive from the Collection Account reimbursement of previously unreimbursed Advance Reimbursement Amounts. 
  
 (d) Upon receipt by the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor of an Advance Facility Notice with respect to SLS, (i) SLS shall no
longer be entitled to receive Advance Reimbursement Amounts in accordance with Section 3.08 hereof and the Servicer’s Assignee with respect to such Advance Facility shall immediately have the right to receive all related Advance Reimbursement
Amounts in the manner set forth in this Section 5.02(d), and (ii) the Securities Administrator shall establish an account in the name of the Servicer’s Assignee (the “SLS Advance Facility Account”). Thereafter, within two (2) Business
Days of SLS’s receipt of Advance Reimbursement Amounts in the manner set forth in Section 3.08, SLS will identify such amounts and remit them to the Securities Administrator. The Securities Administrator shall, within a reasonable time after
receipt of such Advance Reimbursement Amounts from SLS, deposit such Advance Reimbursement Amounts into the SLS Advance Facility Account. On the last business day of each calendar week following the receipt of an Advance Facility Default Notice with
respect to SLS, the Securities Administrator shall wire to the Servicer’s Assignee identified in the related Advance Facility Default Notice, at the payment instructions specified in the Advance Facility Default Notice, any and all funds
contained in the SLS Advance Facility Account. The obligations of each of SLS and the Securities Administrator under this clause (d) shall continue until the Securities Administrator receives written notice from the Advance Financing Person with
respect to the Advance Facility of SLS. 
  
 (e) Without limiting
the foregoing, none of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the Certificateholders shall have any right to setoff against Advance Reimbursement Amounts hereunder. An Advance Facility may be terminated by the joint written direction of the
Servicer and the related Advance Financing Person. Written notice of such termination shall be delivered to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator in the manner set forth in Section 11.05 hereof. Except as expressly set forth in Section
5.02(c) with respect to the establishment of the SLS Advance Facility Account, the deposit of amounts therein and the remittances of amounts therefrom by the Securities Administrator, none of the Depositor, the Securities Administrator or the
Trustee shall, as a result of the existence of any Advance Facility, have any additional duty or liability with respect to the calculation or payment of any Advance Reimbursement Amount, and (ii) none of the Depositor, the Securities Administrator
or the Trustee shall, as a result of the existence of any Advance Facility, have any additional responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the Advance Facility or the payment of 

  

 -104- 

 
Advance Reimbursement Amounts to the Servicer’s Assignee. The Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor, the Trustee, the Seller, the Securities
Administrator, any successor Servicer and the Trust Fund for any claim, loss, liability or damage resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Financing Person, or Servicer’s Assignee, except to the extent that such claim, loss, liability
or damage resulted from or arose out of negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Seller, the Securities Administrator or any successor Servicer, as the case may be, or failure by the successor
Servicer or the Securities Administrator, as the case may be, to remit funds to the extent required by Section 5.02(c) of this Agreement. The Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor Servicer and, upon request, the Trustee and the
Securities Administrator a detailed accounting on a loan-by-loan basis as to amounts advanced by, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advancing Financing Person. The successor Servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information
provided by the predecessor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall not be liable for any errors in such information. Notwithstanding any of the foregoing, and for the avoidance of doubt, the Servicer, the related Advance Financing Person and/or
the Servicer’s Assignee shall only be entitled to reimbursement of Advance Reimbursement Amounts hereunder from withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.08 of this Agreement and shall not otherwise be entitled to make
withdrawals or receive amounts that shall be deposited in the Servicing Administrator Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.05 hereof or any other account. 
  

(f) An Advance Financing Person who receives an assignment or pledge of rights to receive Advance Reimbursement Amounts and/or whose obligations are
limited to the funding of Advances and/or Servicing Advances pursuant to an Advance Facility shall not be required to meet the criteria for qualification as a Subservicer. 
  
 (g) As between a predecessor Servicer and its Advance Financing Person, on the one hand, and a successor Servicer and its
Advance Financing Person, if any, on the other hand, Advance Reimbursement Amounts on a loan-by-loan basis with respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which an Advance and/or Servicing Advance shall have been made and be outstanding shall be allocated
on a “first-in, first out” basis. In the event the Servicer’s Assignee shall have received some or all of an Advance Reimbursement Amount related to Advances and/or Servicing Advances that were made by a Person other than such
predecessor Servicer or its related Advance Financing Person in error or that relate to Advances of Servicing Advances that were not financed under the related Advance Facility, then such Servicer’s Assignee shall be required to remit any
portion of such Advance Reimbursement Amount to each Person entitled to such portion of such Advance Reimbursement Amount. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed by the Advance Financing
Person for all Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent the related Advance Reimbursement Amounts have not been assigned or pledged to such Advance Financing Person or Servicer’s Assignee. 
  
 (h) For purposes of any certification of a Servicing Officer of the Servicer
made pursuant to Section 3.19 any Nonrecoverable Advance referred to therein may have been made by the Servicer or any predecessor Servicer. In making its determination that any Advance theretofore made has become a Nonrecoverable Advance, the
Servicer shall apply the same criteria in making such determination regardless of whether such Advance shall have been made by the Servicer or any predecessor Servicer. 
  
 (i) Any amendment to this Section 5.02 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 5.02, including amendments to add provisions relating to a successor Servicer, may be entered into by the Trustee, the Depositor, the Seller, the Securities
Administrator, the Servicing Administrator and the Servicer without the consent of any Certificateholder, provided such amendment 

  

 -105- 

 
complies with the Section 11.01 hereof. All reasonable costs and expenses (including attorneys’ fees) of each party hereto of any such amendment shall
be borne solely by the Servicer. The parties hereto hereby acknowledge and agree that: (a) the Advances and/or Servicing Advances financed by and/or pledged to an Advance Financing Person under any Advance Facility are obligations owed to the
Servicer payable only from the cash flows and proceeds received under this Agreement for reimbursement of Advances and/or Servicing Advances financed under the related Advance Facility only to the extent provided herein, and the Trustee, the
Securities Administrator and the Trust are not, as a result of the existence of any Advance Facility, obligated or liable to repay any Advances and/or Servicing Advances financed by the Advance Financing Person; (b) the Servicer will be responsible
for remitting to the Advance Financing Person the applicable amounts collected by it as reimbursement for Advances and/or Servicing Advances funded by the Advance Financing Person, subject to the provisions of this Agreement; and (c) neither the
Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the financing arrangement between the Servicer and any Advance Financing Person. 
  
 SECTION 5.03. Reduction of Servicing Compensation in Connection with
Prepayment Interest Shortfalls. 
  
 In the event that any
Mortgage Loan is the subject of a Prepayment Interest Shortfall, the Servicer shall, from amounts in respect of its Servicing Fee for such Distribution Date, deposit into the Collection Account, as a reduction of its Servicing Fee for such
Distribution Date, no later than each Servicer Advance Date immediately preceding such Distribution Date, an amount up to the Prepayment Interest Shortfall. In case of such deposit, the Servicer shall not be entitled to any recovery or reimbursement
from the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders. With respect to any Distribution Date, to the extent that the Prepayment Interest Shortfall exceeds Compensating Interest (such excess, a “Non-Supported Interest
Shortfall”), such Non-Supported Interest Shortfall shall reduce the Current Interest with respect to each Class of Certificates, pro rata based upon the amount of interest each such Class would otherwise be entitled to receive on such
Distribution Date. 
  
 SECTION 5.04. Distributions on the REMIC
Interests. 
  
 On each Distribution Date, amounts on deposit
in the Certificate Account shall be treated for federal income tax purposes as applied to distributions on the interests in REMIC 1, REMIC 2 and REMIC 3 in an amount sufficient to make the distributions on the respective Certificates on such
Distribution Date in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.05.

 (a) On each

the aggregate Interest Carry Forward Amount to the Class A-1A, Class A-1B, Class A-1C, and Class S Certificates, Interest Funds will be distributed pro rata among each class of the Class A-1A, Class A-1B, Class A-1C, and Class S Certificates based
upon the ratio of (x) the Current Interest and Interest Carry Forward Amount for such class to (y) the total amount of Current Interest and any Interest Carry Forward Amount for the Class A-1A, Class A-1B, Class A-1C, and Class S Certificates;

the Pre-Funding Account shall be held in trust by the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders for the uses and purposes set forth herein. The Trustee hereby appoints the Securities Administrator as its agent in connection with establishing and
maintaining the Pre-Funding Account pursuant to this Section 5.07. 
  
 (b) The Securities Administrator shall invest funds deposited in the Pre-Funding Account in Permitted Investments as directed in writing by the Seller (provided that if the Securities Administrator does not receive written direction from
the Seller, then amounts in the Pre-Funding Account shall not be invested) with a maturity date no later than the Business Day preceding each Distribution Date or Subsequent Transfer Date, as the case may be. For federal income tax purposes, the
Seller shall be the owner of the 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 Account shall be transferred to
the Capitalized Interest Account on the Business Day immediately preceding each Distribution Date or Subsequent Transfer Date, as the case may be. The Seller shall deposit in the Pre-Funding Account the amount of any net loss incurred in respect of
any such Permitted Investment immediately upon realization of such loss without any right of reimbursement therefor. The Pre-Funding Account will not be an asset of any of the REMICs provided for herein. 
  
 (c) Amounts on deposit in the Pre-Funding Account shall be withdrawn by the
Securities Administrator as follows: 
  
 (i) On any Subsequent
Transfer Date, the Securities Administrator shall withdraw from the Pre-Funding Account an amount equal to 100% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balances of the Subsequent Mortgage Loans transferred and assigned to the Trustee for deposit in the
Mortgage Pool on such Subsequent Transfer Date and pay such amount to or upon the order of the Depositor upon satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.11 with respect to such transfer and assignment; 
  
 (ii) To withdraw any amount not required to be deposited in the Pre-Funding
Account or deposited therein in error; and 
  
 (iii) To clear and
terminate the Pre-Funding Account upon the earlier to occur of (A) the Distribution Date immediately following the end of the Funding Period and (B) the termination of this Agreement, with any amounts remaining on deposit therein being deposited
into the Certificate Account for distribution in accordance with the terms thereof.

of the Trustee, shall establish and maintain a segregated trust account that is an Eligible Account, which shall be titled “Capitalized Interest Account, U.S. Bank National Association, as trustee for the registered holders of Terwin Mortgage
Trust 2005-6HE, Asset-Backed Certificates, Series TMTS 2005-6HE” (the “Capitalized Interest Account”). The Securities Administrator shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Capitalized Interest Account and retain therein the
Capitalized Interest Amount remitted on the Closing Date to the Securities Administrator by the Depositor. Funds deposited in the Capitalized Interest Account shall be held in trust by the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders for the uses and
purposes set forth herein. The Trustee hereby appoints the Securities Administrator as its agent in connection with establishing and maintaining the Capitalized Interest Account pursuant to this Section 5.08. With respect to any Distribution Date up
to and including the Distribution Date in June 2005, the Securities Administrator will withdraw from the Capitalized Interest Account and deposit into the Certificate Account an amount equal to the Required Withdrawal. The Seller is required to

(b) The Securities Administrator will invest funds deposited in the Capitalized Interest Account in Permitted Investments as directed in writing by
the Seller (provided that if the Securities Administrator does not receive written direction from the Seller, then amounts in the Capitalized Interest Account shall not be invested) with a maturity date no later than the Business Day preceding each
Distribution Date. For federal income tax purposes, the Seller shall be the owner of the Capitalized Interest Account and shall report all items of income, deduction, gain or loss arising therefrom. At no time will the Capitalized Interest Account

Securities Administrator to the Seller on each Distribution Date. The Seller shall deposit in the Capitalized Interest Account the amount of any net loss incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment immediately upon realization of such loss.

  
 (c) Upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date
immediately following the end of the Funding Period and (ii) the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section 10.01, any amount remaining on deposit in the Capitalized Interest Account after withdrawals pursuant to paragraph (a) above

 The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf
of the Trustee by an authorized officer. Upon the written order of the Depositor, Certificates bearing the manual or facsimile signatures of individuals who were, at the time when such signatures were affixed, authorized to sign on behalf of the
Trustee shall bind the Trust Fund, notwithstanding that such individuals or any of them have ceased to be so authorized prior to the authentication and delivery of such Certificates or did not hold such offices at the date of such authentication and
delivery. 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 set forth as attached hereto executed by
the Authenticating Agent by manual signature, and such certificate of authentication upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder. All
Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication. On the Closing Date, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate the Certificates to be issued at the written direction of the Depositor, or any Affiliate thereof. 
  
 The Class B-4, Class B-5 and Class B-6 Certificates may be sold in offshore
transactions in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued initially in the form of one or more permanent global certificates in definitive, fully registered form without interest coupons with the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit A hereto added
to the forms of such Certificates (each, a “Book-Entry Regulation S Global Security”), which shall be deposited on behalf of the Holders of such Certificates represented thereby with the Securities Administrator, as custodian for DTC and
registered in the name of a nominee of DTC, duly executed and authenticated by the Securities Administrator and the Authenticating Agent as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amounts of the Book-Entry Regulation S Global Securities may
from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Securities Administrator or DTC or its nominee, as the case may be, as hereinafter provided. 
  

 -117- 

 The Class X Certificates sold in offshore transactions in reliance on Regulation S shall be issued
initially in the form of one or more permanent global certificates in physical, fully registered form without interest coupons with the applicable legends set forth in Exhibit A hereto added to the forms of such Certificates (each, a
“Definitive Regulation S Global Security”), which shall be delivered to the Holders of such Certificates represented thereby by the Securities Administrator, duly executed and authenticated by the Securities Administrator and the
Authenticating Agent as hereinafter provided. The aggregate principal amounts of the Definitive Regulation S Global Securities may from time to time be increased or decreased by adjustments made on the records of the Securities Administrator, as
hereinafter provided. 
  
 SECTION 6.02. Appointment of
Certificate Registrar; Certificate Register; Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. 
  
 (a) The Securities Administrator is hereby appointed Certificate Registrar (the “Certificate Registrar”) and in such capacity, it shall
maintain, or cause to be maintained, a Certificate Register for the Trust Fund in which, subject to the provisions of subsections (b) and (c) below and to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Securities Administrator shall provide
for the registration of Certificates and of Transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided. Upon surrender for registration of Transfer of any Certificate, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the
designated transferee or transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class and of like aggregate Percentage Interest. 
  
 At the option of a Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and evidencing
the same aggregate Percentage Interest upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at the office or agency of the Securities Administrator. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Securities Administrator shall execute
and the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver the Certificates that the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be
accompanied by a written instrument of Transfer in form satisfactory to the Securities Administrator duly executed by the holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. 
  
 No service charge to the Certificateholders shall be made for any registration of Transfer or exchange of Certificates, but
payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any Transfer or exchange of Certificates may be required. All Certificates surrendered for registration of Transfer or exchange shall be
canceled and subsequently destroyed by a Securities Administrator in accordance with such Securities Administrator’s customary procedures. 
  
 No Transfer of a Class X Certificate shall be made unless such Transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act
and any applicable state securities laws or is exempt from the registration requirements under the Securities Act and such state securities laws. In the event that a Transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption from the Securities Act and
such laws, in order to assure compliance with the Securities Act and such laws, the Certificateholder desiring to effect such Transfer and such Certificateholder’s prospective transferee shall (except with respect to any transfers of the Class
X Certificate originally issued to Merrill Lynch, Pierce, Fenner & Smith Incorporated to an indenture trustee in connection with a resecuritization transaction) each certify to the Securities Administrator in writing the facts surrounding the
Transfer in substantially the forms set forth in Exhibit F (the “Transferor Certificate”) and (i) deliver a letter in substantially the form of either Exhibit G (the “Investment Letter”) or Exhibit H (the “Rule 144A
Letter”) or (ii) there shall be delivered to the Securities Administrator an Opinion of Counsel that such Transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Securities Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor,
the Securities Administrator or the Trustee. The Depositor shall provide to any Holder of a Class X 

  

 -118- 

 
Certificate and any prospective transferee designated by any such Holder, information regarding the related Certificates and the Mortgage Loans and such
other information as shall be necessary to satisfy the condition to eligibility set forth in Rule 144A(d)(4) for Transfer of any such Certificate without registration thereof under the Securities Act pursuant to the registration exemption provided
by Rule 144A. The Securities Administrator shall cooperate with the Depositor in providing the Rule 144A information referenced in the preceding sentence, including providing to the Depositor such information in the possession of the Securities
Administrator regarding the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans and other matters regarding the Trust Fund as the Depositor shall reasonably request to meet its obligation under the preceding sentence. Each Holder of a Class X Certificate desiring to
effect such Transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee 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. 
  
 By acceptance of a Regulation S Global Security,
whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such a Certificate acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate set forth thereon and agrees that it will only transfer such a Certificate as provided herein.
In addition, each Holder of a Regulation S Global Security shall be deemed to have represented and warranted to the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and any of their respective successors that: (i) such Person is not a “U.S. person”
within the meaning of Regulation S and was, at the time the buy order was originated, outside the United States and (ii) such Person understands that such Certificates have not been registered under the Securities Act and that (x) until the
expiration of the 40-day distribution compliance period (within the meaning of Regulation S), no offer, sale, pledge or other transfer of such Certificates or any interest therein shall be made in the United States or to or for the account or
benefit of a U.S. person (each as defined in Regulation S), (y) if in the future it decides to offer, resell, pledge or otherwise transfer such Certificates, such Certificates may be offered, resold, pledged or otherwise transferred only (A) to a
person which the seller reasonably believes is a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act, that is purchasing such Certificates for its own account or for the account of a
qualified institutional buyer to which notice is given that the transfer is being made in reliance on Rule 144A or (B) in an offshore transaction (as defined in Regulation S) in compliance with the provisions of Regulation S, in each case in
compliance with the requirements of this Agreement; and it will notify such transferee of the transfer restrictions specified in this Section. 
  
 No Transfer of a Class X Certificate, or a beneficial interest therein, may be made to a non-United States Person unless the Securities Administrator has
received, in the manner required by applicable United States Treasury Regulations (and with all required attachments, including, where the non-United States Person is providing an Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor form),
Internal Revenue Service Forms W-8BEN or W-9 (or any successor forms) from all persons treated as beneficially owning an interest in the Class X Certificate through such non-United States Person either directly, through an intermediary or through an
entity that is treated as a partnership or other look-through entity for non-United States federal tax purposes), a properly completed Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY, W-8BEN or W-8ECI (or any successor form) from such non-United States Person.

  
 No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate that is a Class
R Certificate may be made to any Person that is an employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Title I of ERISA, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan subject to any provisions under any federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other
laws or regulations that are substantively similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (“Similar Law”) (collectively, a “Plan”), or to any Person who is directly or indirectly acquiring the Class R Certificate for,
on behalf of or with any assets of any such Plan. 
  

 -119- 

 No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate (other than the Class R Certificate) shall be made unless
the transferee provides the Trustee and the Securities Administrator with (A) a representation that the transferee is not a Plan, and is not directly or indirectly acquiring the Certificate for, on behalf of or with any assets of any such Plan, (B)
if the Certificate has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a representation that the transferee is an insurance company that is acquiring the Certificate with assets of an “insurance company general account” as defined in
Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTCE”) 95-60 and the acquisition and holding of the Certificate is covered and exempt under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60, or (C) solely in the case of a Definitive Certificate,
an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, and upon which the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to rely, to the effect that the acquisition and holding of the Certificates by the
transferee will not result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code, or a violation of Similar Law, and will not subject the Seller, the Placement Agent, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor,
the Servicer or the Trustee to any obligation in addition to those undertaken by such entities in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Seller, the Placement Agent, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor, the
Servicer or the Trustee. 
  
 For purposes of the two immediately
preceding paragraphs of this Subsection 6.02(a), other than clause (C) in the immediately preceding paragraph, the representations as set forth therein shall be deemed to have been made to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator by the
transferee’s acceptance of the particular ERISA Restricted Certificate (or the acceptance by a Certificate Owner of the beneficial interest in any Class of ERISA Restricted Certificates). In the event that such representation is violated, and
(solely in the case of a Definitive Certificate) in the event that any attempt is made to transfer to a Plan or to any Person acting for, on behalf of or with any assets of any Plan without the Opinion of Counsel described above, such attempted
transfer or acquisition shall be void and of no effect and the last preceding qualified transferee shall be deemed restored to all rights as beneficial owner thereof retroactive to the date of such purported transfer. The Trustee and the Securities
Administrator shall not be under any liability to any Person for any registration or transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 6.02(a) nor shall the Trustee and the Securities Administrator be under
any liability for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Trustee and the
Securities Administrator in accordance with the foregoing requirements. The Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall be entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any ERISA Restricted Certificate that was in fact a Plan and
that held such Certificate in violation of this Section 6.02(a) all payments made on such ERISA Restricted Certificate at and after the time it commenced such holding. Any such payments so recovered shall be paid and delivered to the last preceding
qualified transferee. 
  
 (b) Each Person who has or who acquires
any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a
Class R Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions: 
  
 (i) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee and shall promptly notify the Securities Administrator of any change or impending change in its
status as a Permitted Transferee. 
  
 (ii) No Ownership Interest
in a Class R Certificate may be purchased, transferred or sold, directly or indirectly, except in accordance with the provisions hereof. No Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate may be registered on the Closing Date or thereafter transferred,
and the Securities Administrator shall not register the Transfer of any Class R Certificate unless, in addition to the 

  

 -120- 

 
certificates required to be delivered to the Securities Administrator under subparagraph (b) above, the Securities Administrator shall have been furnished
with an affidavit (a “Transfer Affidavit”) of the initial owner or the proposed transferee in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E-1 and an affidavit of the proposed transferor in the form attached hereto as Exhibit E-2. In the absence of
a contrary instruction from the transferor of a Class R Certificate, declaration (11) in Appendix A of the Transfer Affidavit may be left blank. If the transferor requests by written notice to the Securities Administrator prior to the date of the
proposed transfer that one of the two other forms of declaration (11) in Appendix A of the Transfer Affidavit be used, then the requirements of this Section 6.02(b)(ii) shall not have been satisfied unless the Transfer Affidavit includes such other
form of declaration. 
  
 (iii) Each Person holding or acquiring
any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate shall agree (A) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate, (B) to obtain a Transfer Affidavit from
any Person for whom such Person is acting as nominee, trustee or agent in connection with any Transfer of a Class R Certificate and (C) not to Transfer its Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate or to cause the Transfer of an Ownership Interest
in a Class R Certificate to any other Person if it has actual knowledge that such Person is not a Permitted Transferee. Further, no transfer, sale or other disposition of any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate may be made to a person who is
not a U.S. Person (within the meaning of section 7701 of the Code) unless such person furnishes the transferor, the Securities Administrator with a duly completed and effective Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor thereto) and the
Securities Administrator consents to such transfer, sale or other disposition in writing. 
  
 (iv) Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 6.02(b) shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the
purported Transferee. If any purported transferee shall become a Holder of a Class R Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 6.02(b), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof
retroactive to the date of registration of Transfer of such Class R Certificate. The Securities Administrator shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Class R Certificate that is in fact not permitted by
Section 6.02(a) and this Section 6.02(b) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Transfer was registered
after receipt of the related Transfer Affidavit. The Securities Administrator shall be entitled but not obligated to recover from any Holder of a Class R Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time it became a Holder or, at
such subsequent time as it became other than a Permitted Transferee, all payments made on such Class R Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered by the Securities Administrator shall be paid and delivered by the
Securities Administrator to the last preceding Permitted Transferee of such Certificate. 
  
 (v) At the option of the Holder of the Class R Certificate, the Class LT1-R Interest, Class LT2-R Interest and the REMIC 3 Residual Interest may be severed and represented by separate certificates; provided, however,
that such separate certification may not occur until the Securities Administrator receives an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that separate certification in the form and manner proposed would not result in the imposition of federal tax upon the
Trust Fund or any of the REMICs provided for herein or cause any of the REMICs provided for herein to fail to qualify as a REMIC; and provided further, that the provisions of Sections 6.02(a) and (b) will apply to each such separate certificate as
if the separate certificate were a Class R Certificate. If, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel, it is necessary to preserve the REMIC status of any of the REMICs provided for herein, the Class LT1-R Interest, Class LT2-R Interest and the REMIC 3
Residual Interest shall be severed and represented by separate certificates. 
  

 -121- 

 The restrictions on Transfers of a Class R Certificate set forth in this Section 5.02(b) shall cease to
apply (and the applicable portions of the legend on a Class R Certificate may be deleted) with respect to Transfers occurring after delivery to the Securities Administrator of an Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense
of the Securities Administrator or the Depositor, to the effect that the elimination of such restrictions will not cause any of the REMICs provided for herein to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that the Certificates are outstanding or result
in the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, any REMIC provided for herein, a Certificateholder or another Person. Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class R Certificate hereby consents to any amendment of this Agreement
that, based on an Opinion of Counsel furnished to the Securities Administrator, is reasonably necessary (a) to ensure that the record ownership of, or any beneficial interest in, a Class R Certificate is not transferred, directly or indirectly, to a
Person that is not a Permitted Transferee and (b) to provide for a means to compel the Transfer of a Class R Certificate that is held by a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee to a Holder that is a Permitted Transferee. 
  
 (c) The transferor of the Class R Certificate shall notify the Securities
Administrator in writing upon the transfer of the Class R Certificate. 
  
 (d) The preparation and delivery of all certificates, opinions and other writings referred to above in this Section 6.02 shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Depositor, the Securities Administrator or the Trustee. 
  
 SECTION 6.03. Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

  
 If (a) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the
Securities Administrator or the Securities Administrator receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and of the ownership thereof and (b) there is delivered to the Securities Administrator and the
Trustee such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Securities Administrator that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Securities
Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like Class, tenor and Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any
new Certificate under this Section 6.03, the Securities Administrator may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and
expenses of the Securities Administrator and the Trustee and their counsel) connected therewith. Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 6.03 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund, as
if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time. All Certificates surrendered to the Securities Administrator under the terms of this Section 6.03 shall be canceled and destroyed by the
Securities Administrator in accordance with its standard procedures without liability on its part. 
  
 SECTION 6.04. Persons Deemed Owners. 
  
 The Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any agent of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate
is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions as provided in this Agreement and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator, nor any agent of the Trustee or
the Securities Administrator shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 
  
 SECTION 6.05. Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. 
  
 If three or more Certificateholders (a) request such information in writing from the Securities Administrator, (b) state that such Certificateholders
desire to communicate with other Certificateholders 

  

 -122- 

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

  
 SECTION 6.06. Book-Entry Certificates. 
  
 The Regular Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the
form of one or more typewritten Certificates representing the Book-Entry Certificates, to be delivered to the Depository by or on behalf of the Depositor. The Class ES, Class R and Class X Certificates shall be definitive certificates. The
Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of the Depository or its nominee, and no Certificate Owner of a Book-Entry Certificate will receive a definitive certificate representing such Certificate
Owner’s interest in such Certificates, except as provided in Section 6.08. Unless and until definitive, fully registered Certificates (“Definitive Certificates”) have been issued to the Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry
Certificates pursuant to Section 6.08: 
  
 (a) the provisions of
this Section shall be in full force and effect; 
  
 (b) the
Depositor, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee may deal with the Depository and the Depository Participants for all purposes (including the making of distributions) as the authorized representative of the respective Certificate Owners of
the Book-Entry Certificates; 
  
 (c) registration of the
Book-Entry Certificates may not be transferred by the Securities Administrator except to another Depository; 
  
 (d) the rights of the respective Certificate Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates shall be exercised only through the Depository and the Depository
Participants and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between the Owners of the Book-Entry Certificates and the Depository and/or the Depository Participants. Pursuant to the Depository Agreement, unless and until Definitive
Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 6.08, the Depository will make book-entry transfers among the Depository Participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the related Certificates to such Depository
Participants; 
  
 (e) the Depository may collect its usual and
customary fees, charges and expenses from its Depository Participants; 
  
 (f) the Securities Administrator and the Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository Participants; and 
  
 (g) to the extent that the provisions of this Section conflict with any
other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section shall control. 
  
 For purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or permitting actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Certificateholders evidencing a specified percentage of the aggregate unpaid principal
amount of any Class of Certificates, such direction or consent may be given by Certificate Owners (acting through the Depository and the Depository Participants) owning Book-Entry Certificates evidencing the requisite percentage of principal amount
of such Class of Certificates.

 SECTION 6.07. Notices to Depository. 
  
 Whenever any notice or other communication is required to be given to
Certificateholders of the Class with respect to which Book-Entry Certificates have been issued, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued to the related Certificate Owners, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee shall
give all such notices and communications to the Depository. 
  
 SECTION 6.08. Definitive Certificates. 
  
 If,
after Book-Entry Certificates have been issued with respect to any Certificates, (a) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Securities Administrator and the Trustee that the Depository is no longer willing, qualified or able to discharge
properly its responsibilities under the Depository Agreement with respect to such Certificates and the Securities Administrator or the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, (b) the Depositor, at its sole option, advises the Securities
Administrator and the Trustee that it elects to terminate the book-entry system with respect to such Certificates through the Depository or (c) after the occurrence and continuation of an Event of Default, Certificate Owners of such Book-Entry
Certificates having not less than 51% of the Voting Rights evidenced by any Class of Book-Entry Certificates advise the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Depository in writing through the Depository Participants that the continuation of
a book-entry system with respect to Certificates of such Class through the Depository (or its successor) is no longer in the best interests of the Certificate Owners of such Class, then the Securities Administrator shall notify all Certificate
Owners of such Book-Entry Certificates, through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of Definitive Certificates to Certificate Owners of such Class requesting the same. The Depositor shall provide the
Securities Administrator with an adequate inventory of certificates to facilitate the issuance and transfer of Definitive Certificates. Upon surrender to the Securities Administrator of any such Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by
registration instructions from the Depository for registration, the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and the Securities Administrator shall deliver such Definitive Certificates. Neither the Depositor nor the Securities Administrator shall be
liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and each may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of such Definitive Certificates, all references herein to obligations imposed upon or
to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Securities Administrator, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates and the Securities Administrator shall recognize the Holders of
such Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 6.09. Maintenance of Office or Agency. 
  
 The Securities Administrator will maintain or cause to be maintained at its expense an office or offices or agency or agencies where Certificates may be surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange. The Securities Administrator
initially designates its offices at 2001 Bryan Street, 10th Floor, Dallas, Texas 75201, Attention: Institutional
Trust Services, Terwin Mortgage Trust 2005-6HE as offices for such purposes. The Securities Administrator will give prompt written notice to the Certificateholders of any change in such location of any such office or agency. 
  
 SECTION 6.10. Authenticating Agents. 
  
 (a) The Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents (each, an
“Authenticating Agent”) which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee in authenticating the 

  

 -124- 

 
Certificates. Wherever reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the Trustee or the Trustee’s certificate of
authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent and a certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent
must be an entity organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of any state, having a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000, authorized under such laws to do a trust business and subject to
supervision or examination by federal or state authorities. If the Authenticating Agent is a party other than the Trustee, the Trustee shall have no liability in connection with the performance or failure of performance of the Authenticating Agent.
The Trustee hereby appoints JPMorgan as the initial Authenticating Agent. The Trustee shall be the Authenticating Agent during any such time as no other Authenticating Agent has been appointed and has not resigned. 
  
 (b) Any Person into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which any Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate agency business of any Authenticating
Agent, shall continue to be the Authenticating Agent without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
  
 (c) Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at least 30 days’ advance written notice of resignation
to the Trustee and the Depositor. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any Authenticating Agent by giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent and the Depositor. Upon receiving a notice of resignation or upon
such a termination, or in case at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance within the provisions of this Section 6.10, the Trustee may appoint a successor Authenticating Agent, shall give written notice of such
appointment to the Depositor and shall mail notice of such appointment to all Holders of Certificates. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers, duties and
responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Authenticating Agent. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 6.10. No Authenticating Agent
shall have responsibility or liability for any action taken by it as such at the direction of the Trustee. Any Authenticating Agent (except the Securities Administrator) shall be entitled to reasonable compensation for its services and any such
compensation shall be payable solely by the Trust Fund, without any right of reimbursement from the Depositor, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicing Administrator or the Trustee; provided that the Securities Administrator shall
not be entitled to any additional compensation for serving as Authenticating Agent.

 SECTION 7.02. Merger or Consolidation of the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer or
the Securities Administrator. 
  
 Except as provided in the
next paragraph, the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer and the Securities Administrator will each keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation or banking association under the laws of the United States
or under the laws of one of the States thereof and will each obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and
enforceability of this Agreement, or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its respective duties under this Agreement. 
  
 Any Person into which the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer or the Securities Administrator may be merged or consolidated, or any
Person resulting from any merger or consolidation to which the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer or the Securities Administrator shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Depositor, the Servicing

Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator 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

by reasons 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 Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the
Trustee or the Securities Administrator and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator may rely in good faith on any document
of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and any
director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability

this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties

 -126- 

 
that is not incidental to its respective duties hereunder and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that any of
the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator its discretion undertake any such action that it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights
and duties of the parties hereto and interests of the Trustee and the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be, expenses, costs and liabilities of the

the Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer, the Trustee or Securities Administrator on behalf of the Trust Fund in accordance with any of the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation: (A) the reasonable compensation and the
expenses and disbursements of its counsel, but only for representation of the Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer, Trustee or Securities Administrator acting in its capacity as Servicing Administrator or Securities Administrator hereunder
and (B) to the extent that the Securities Administrator or the Trustee must engage persons not regularly in its employ to perform acts or services on behalf of the Trust Fund, which acts or services are not in the ordinary course of the duties of a
trustee, in the absence of a breach or default by any party hereto, the reasonable compensation, expenses and disbursements of such persons), except any such compensation, expense, disbursement or advance that either (i) arises from its negligence,
bad faith or willful misconduct or (ii) does not constitute an “unanticipated expense” within the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii). 
  
 On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall be entitled to the Securities Administrator Fee as
compensation for its services hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 7.04.
Limitation on Resignation of the Servicer. 
  
 The
Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer
shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator. No such resignation shall become effective until the Backup Servicer (or other successor servicer) reasonably acceptable to the
Securities Administrator is appointed and has assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities and obligations hereunder. Any such resignation shall not relieve the Servicer of any of the obligations specified in Sections 7.01 and
7.02 as obligations that survive the resignation or termination of the Servicer. 
  
 The Securities Administrator and the Depositor hereby specifically (i) consent to the pledge and assignment by the Servicer of all of the Servicer’s right, title and interest in, to and under this Agreement to
the Servicing Rights Pledgee, for the benefit of certain lenders, and (ii) agree that upon delivery to the Trustee by the Servicing Rights Pledgee of a letter signed by the Servicer whereby the Servicer shall resign as Servicer under this Agreement,
the Trustee shall appoint the Servicing Rights Pledgee or its designee as successor Servicer, provided that at the time of such appointment, the Servicing Rights Pledgee or such designee meets the requirements of a successor Servicer as set forth
herein and agrees to be subject to the terms of this Agreement. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Servicer are transferred to a successor Servicer (except if such successor Servicer is appointed by the Servicing Rights Owner)
the entire amount of the Aggregate Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor Servicer, and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the SLS Servicing Fee Rate
shall be deemed to be 0.50% per annum. 
  

 -127- 

 Notwithstanding the foregoing, at the Servicing Rights Owner’s request, the Servicer shall resign
upon the selection and appointment of a successor Servicer by the Servicing Rights Owner; provided that (a) the Servicing Rights Owner delivers to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator the letter required pursuant to the paragraph above and
(b) such successor Servicer designated by the Servicing Rights Owner meets the eligibility requirements for a successor Servicer. Upon such appointment, such successor Servicer will become the Servicer pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., may at its sole discretion elect not to act as Backup Servicer with respect to such successor Servicer. 
  
 Except as expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, or
delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Servicer hereunder. The foregoing prohibition on assignment shall not prohibit the Servicer from
designating a Subservicer as payee of any indemnification amount payable to the Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that as provided in Section 3.02, no Subservicer shall be a third-party beneficiary hereunder and the parties hereto shall not be
required to recognize any Subservicer as an indemnitee under this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicing Rights Owner may finance, pledge or assign all of its right, title and interest in, to and under this Agreement to one or more
lenders (each, a “Servicing Rights Pledgee”) selected by the Servicing Rights Owner. 
  
 SECTION 7.05. Errors and Omissions Insurance; Fidelity Bonds. 
  
 The Servicer shall maintain with responsible companies, at its own expense, a blanket Fidelity Bond and an Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy, with
broad coverage on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any capacity requiring such persons to handle funds, money, documents or papers relating to the related Mortgage Loans (“Servicer Employees”). Any such Fidelity Bond and
Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of the Servicer Employees. Each Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions
Insurance Policy also shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the release or satisfaction of a related Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this
Section 3.19 requiring such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy
shall be at least equal to the corresponding amounts required by FNMA. The Servicer will furnish a copy of the Fidelity Bond or Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy to the Trustee upon request. 
  
 SECTION 7.06. Limitation on Resignation of the Servicing Administrator and
the Backup Servicer. 
  
 Neither the Servicing Administrator
nor the Backup Servicer shall resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law or unless a successor servicer has been appointed. Any such
determination permitting the resignation of the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel at the expense of the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer, as applicable, to such effect delivered
to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator. No such resignation shall become effective until a successor Servicing Administrator or successor Backup Servicer reasonably acceptable to the Securities Administrator is appointed and has assumed the
Servicing Administrator’s or 

  

 -128- 

 
the Backup Servicer’s, as applicable, responsibilities, duties, liabilities and obligations hereunder. Any such resignation shall not relieve the
Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer of any of the obligations specified in Sections 7.01 and 7.02 as obligations that survive the resignation or termination of the Servicing Administrator or the Backup Servicer. 
  
 SECTION 7.07. Assignment by Backup Servicer and Servicing
Administrator. 
  
 The Backup Servicer may sell and assign
its rights and delegate its duties and obligations in its entirety as Backup Servicer under this Agreement; provided, however, that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accept in writing such assignment and delegation and assume the obligations of the
Backup Servicer hereunder and (a) shall be a Person which shall be qualified to service mortgage loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac or a Person who has an Affiliate who is so qualified; (b) shall have a net worth of not less than $15,000,000
(unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant to clause (ii) below); (c) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Trustee; and (d) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by it as Backup Servicer under this Agreement, any custodial
agreement from and after the effective date of such agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency shall be given prior written notice of the identity of the proposed successor to the Backup Servicer and each Rating Agency’s rating of the Certificates in
effect immediately prior to such assignment, sale and delegation will not be downgraded, qualified or withdrawn as a result of such assignment, sale and delegation, as evidenced by a letter to such effect delivered to the Backup Servicer and the
Trustee; and (iii) the Backup Servicer assigning and selling the backup servicing shall deliver to the Trustee an officer’s certificate and an Independent opinion of counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to such action under this
Agreement have been completed and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms of this Agreement. No such assignment or delegation shall affect any liability of the Backup Servicer arising out of acts or omissions prior to the effective
date thereof. 
  
 The Servicing Administrator may sell and assign
its rights and delegate its duties and obligations in its entirety as Servicing Administrator under this Agreement; provided, however, that: (i) any purchaser or transferee must accept in writing such assignment and delegation and assume the
obligations of the Servicing Administrator hereunder and shall (a) be a Person which shall be qualified to service mortgage loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac or a Person who has an Affiliate who is qualified; (b) have a net worth of not less than
$15,000,000 (unless otherwise approved by the Rating Agencies pursuant to clause (ii) below); (c) be reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the Depositor; and (d) execute and deliver to the Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably
satisfactory to the Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by it as Servicing Administrator under this Agreement, any
custodial agreement from and after the effective date of such agreement; (ii) the Rating Agencies shall be given prior written notice of the identity of the proposed successor to the Servicing Administrator and each Rating Agency’s rating of
the Certificates in effect immediately prior to such assignment, sale and delegation will not be downgraded, qualified or withdrawn as a result of such assignment, sale and delegation, as evidenced by a letter to such effect delivered to the
Servicing Administrator and the Trustee; and (iii) the Servicing Administrator assigning and selling the master servicing shall deliver to the Trustee an officer’s certificate and an Independent opinion of counsel, each stating that all
conditions precedent to such action under this Agreement have been completed and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms of this Agreement. No such assignment or delegation shall affect any liability of the Servicing Administrator
arising out of acts or omissions prior to the effective date thereof. 
  

 -129- 

 SECTION 7.08. Limitation Upon Liability of the Credit Risk Manager. 
  
 Neither the Credit Risk Manager, nor any of its directors, officers,
employees, or agents 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 made in good faith pursuant to this Agreement or the Credit Risk Management
Agreement, in reliance upon information provided by the Servicer under the Credit Risk Management Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Credit Risk Manager or any such person against
liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful malfeasance, gross negligence or bad faith in its performance of its duties or by reason of reckless disregard for its obligations and duties under this Agreement or the applicable
Credit Risk Management Agreement. The Credit Risk Manager and any director, officer, employee, or agent of the Credit Risk Manager may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person
respecting any matters arising hereunder, and may rely in good faith upon the accuracy of information furnished by the Servicer pursuant to the Credit Risk Management Agreement in the performance of its duties thereunder and hereunder.

following events: 
  
 (i) any failure by the Servicer or the
Servicing Administrator, as applicable, to make any Advance, to deposit in the Collection Account or the Certificate Account or remit to the Securities Administrator any payment (excluding a payment required to be made from its own funds under
Section 5.01 hereof) required to be made under the terms of this Agreement, which failure shall continue unremedied for one Business Day after the date on which written notice of such failure shall have been given to the Servicer or the Servicing

Servicing Administrator, as applicable, by the Securities Administrator or the Depositor, or to the Securities Administrator by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates; or

  
 (iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory
authority having jurisdiction for the appointment of a receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been
entered against the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 90 consecutive days; or 
  
 (iv) consent by the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable,
to the appointment of a receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, 

  

 -130- 

 
marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable or all or
substantially all of the property of the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator; or 
  
 (v) admission by the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, in writing of its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of, or commence a voluntary
case under, any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or 
  
 (vi) an SLS Event of Termination shall have occurred. 
  
 If an Event of Default shall occur with respect to the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, then, and in
each and every such case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied within the applicable grace period, or solely with respect to clause (i) above by 5:00 p.m. on the Servicer Remittance Date or the Servicing Administrator
Remittance Date, as applicable, the Securities Administrator may with the consent of Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 50% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates, shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer or the
Servicing Administrator, as applicable (with a copy to the Rating Agencies), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the
proceeds thereof, other than its rights as a Certificateholder hereunder. On or after the receipt by the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer or the Servicing
Administrator, as applicable, hereunder, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Securities Administrator. If an Event of Default described in clause (i) hereof shall occur, the Trustee shall, by
notice in writing to the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, and the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicing Administrator or the Servicer, as applicable, in its capacity as Servicer or Servicing
Administrator, as applicable, under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. The Securities Administrator is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer or the Servicing
Administrator, as applicable, and the Trustee, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. Unless expressly provided in such written notice, no such termination shall affect any obligation of the Servicer
or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, to pay amounts owed pursuant to Article VIII. The Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, agrees to cooperate with the Securities Administrator in effecting the termination of the
Servicer’s or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, responsibilities and rights hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Securities Administrator of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited to the
Collection Account, or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer and the Servicing Administrator and the Securities Administrator hereby agree that it shall promptly notify the Rating Agencies of the occurrence of an
Event of Default relating to such Person or an event that, with notice, passage of time, other action or any combination of the foregoing would be an Event of Default, such notice to be provided in any event within two Business Days of such
occurrence. 
  
 Notwithstanding any termination of the activities
of the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, hereunder, the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable shall be entitled to receive, out of any late collection of a Scheduled Payment on a Mortgage Loan that was due
prior to the notice terminating the Servicer’s or the Servicing Administrator’s rights and obligations as Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, hereunder and received after such notice, that portion thereof to which the
Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable would have been entitled pursuant to Sections 3.08(a)(i) through (viii), and any other amounts payable to the Servicer or the Servicing 

  

 -131- 

 
Administrator, as applicable hereunder the entitlement to which arose prior to the termination of its activities hereunder. Notwithstanding anything herein
to the contrary, upon termination of the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, hereunder, any liabilities of the Servicer or the Servicing Administrator, as applicable, which accrued prior to such termination shall survive such
termination. 
  
 Notwithstanding the above, if an Event of Default
described in clauses (a)(ii) through (a)(vi) of this Section shall occur with respect to the Servicer, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Servicing Rights Owner shall have 30
days to appoint a successor Servicer, provided that (a) the Certificated Insurer consents to such resignation and appointment, (b) the Rating Agencies have confirmed to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator that the appointment of the
proposed successor servicer as the Servicer will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the then current ratings of the Certificates and (c) such successor Servicer meets the eligibility requirement for a successor Servicer. 
  
 SECTION 8.02. Securities Administrator to Act; Servicing Administrator and
Backup Servicer to Act; Appointment of Successor. 
  
 (a) On
and after the time the Servicing Administrator or the Servicer receives a notice of termination, the Securities Administrator (in the case of the Servicing Administrator), or the Backup Servicer (in the case of SLS) shall be the successor in all
respects to the Servicing Administrator or the Servicer, as applicable, in its capacity as Servicing Administrator or servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein, and all the responsibilities, duties and
liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter shall be assumed by the Securities Administrator (except for any representations or warranties of the Servicing Administrator under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities
contained in Section 2.03) (in the case of the Servicing Administrator), or the Backup Servicer (except for any representations and warranties of SLS contained in Section 2.03) (in the case of SLS) by the terms and provisions hereof including,
without limitation, the Servicer’s obligations to make Advances pursuant to Section 5.01 and subject Section 3.08; provided, however, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicing Administrator’s or
the Servicer’s failure to provide information required by Section 9.01 shall not be considered a default by the Securities Administrator (in the case of the Servicing Administrator), or the Backup Servicer (in the case of SLS) as successor to
the Servicer hereunder. As compensation therefore the Backup Servicer (in the case of SLS) shall be entitled to the Aggregate Servicing Fee and all other compensation to which the Servicer would have been entitled if it had continued to act
hereunder and the Securities Administrator (in the case of the Servicing Administrator) shall be entitled to all compensation to which the Servicing Administrator is entitled hereunder. Nothing in this Section 8.02(a) shall require the Securities
Administrator to make an Advance with respect to any Mortgage Loan for which the Servicing Administrator or the Servicer was not required to make such an advance or to the extent such entity is prohibited by law or regulation from obligating itself
to make such Advances. 
  
 (b) No appointment of a successor to
the Servicing Administrator or the Servicer under this Agreement shall be effective until the assumption by the successor of all of the Servicing Administrator’s or Servicer’s, as applicable, responsibilities, duties and liabilities

notice to the Mortgagors of such change of Servicer and shall, during the term of its service as the Servicer, maintain in force the policy or policies that the Servicer is required to maintain pursuant to this Agreement. 
  
 (d) In connection with the termination or resignation of the Servicer
hereunder, (i) the successor Servicer, including the Servicing Administrator or Backup Servicer, as applicable, shall represent and warrant that it or an Affiliate is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all material
respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, in which case the predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the successor Servicer in causing MERS to revise its

of Default, such 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 Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent
expressly so waived.

 (a) The Trustee undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as
are specifically set forth in this Agreement as duties of the Trustee. During the continuance of an 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

 (b) The Trustee, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements,
opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to it, 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 their face to the requirements of this Agreement, the Trustee shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is
not corrected to its satisfaction, the Trustee will provide notice to the Certificateholders. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Trustee shall have no obligation to reconcile, recompute or recalculate any remittances or reports of the Servicer, and
the Trustee may fully rely upon and shall have no liability with respect to information provided by the Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicing Administrator, the Custodian or the Backup Servicer. 
  
 (c) The Trustee shall promptly remit to the Servicer any complaint, claim,
demand, notice or other document (collectively, the “Notices”) delivered to the Trustee as a consequence of the assignment of any Mortgage Loan hereunder and relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans; provided than any such notice
(i) is delivered to the Trustee at is Corporate Trust Office, and (ii) contains information sufficient to permit the Trustee to make a determination that the real property to which such document relates is a Mortgaged Property. The Trustee shall
have no duty hereunder with respect to any Notice it may receive or which may be alleged to have been delivered to or served upon it unless such Notice is delivered to it or served upon it at its Corporate Trust Office and such Notice contains the
information required pursuant to clause (ii) of the preceding sentence. 
  
 (d) No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own willful misconduct; provided, however, that:

  
 (i) The 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; 
  

 -135- 

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

Trustee under this Agreement; and 
  
 (iv) The Trustee shall not
be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial or other 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

of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicing Administrator, the Custodian or the Backup Servicer under this Agreement. 
  
 (v) the Trustee shall not be liable, individually or as Trustee, with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to

 (vii) The Trustee shall not be liable for any loss on any investment of
funds pursuant to this Agreement (other than as issuer of the investment security);

Administrator with due care; and 
  
 (xii) if requested by the
Servicer, the Trustee may appoint the Servicer as the trustee’s attorney-in-fact in order to carry out and perform certain activities that are necessary or appropriate for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this
Agreement. Such appointment shall be evidenced by a power of attorney in such form as may be agreed to by the Trustee and the Servicer. The Trustee shall have no liability for any action or inaction of the Servicer in connection with such power of
attorney and the Trustee shall be indemnified by the Servicer for all liabilities, costs and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the Servicer’s use or misuse of such powers of attorney. 
  

 -137- 

 (b) All rights of action under this Agreement or under any of the Certificates, enforceable by the
Trustee, may be enforced by it without the possession of any of the Certificates, or the production thereof at the trial or other proceeding relating thereto, and any such suit, action or proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its
name for the benefit of all the Holders of such Certificates, subject to the provisions of this Agreement. 
  
 (c) Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in no event shall the Trustee be liable to any Person for any act or omission of the

 SECTION 9.03. The Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans. 
  
 The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the authentication and countersignature on the

validly existing under the laws of the United States of America or any state thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, and shall each have a combined capital and surplus of at least $50,000,000, a minimum long-term debt
rating in the third highest rating category by a Rating Agency, a minimum short-term debt rating in the second highest rating category by a Rating Agency, and shall each be subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority. If such
entity publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 9.07, the combined capital and surplus of such entity shall be
deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. The principal office of the Trustee (other than the initial Trustee) shall be in a state with respect to which an Opinion of Counsel has
been delivered to such Trustee at the time such Trustee is appointed Trustee to the effect that the Trust will not be a taxable entity under the laws of such state. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the
provisions of this Section 9.07, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 9.08 hereof. 
  
 SECTION 9.08. 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 Seller, the
Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer, the Servicer and the Rating Agency. Upon receiving such notice of resignation of the Trustee, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor Trustee that meets the requirements in Section 9.07, by
written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to each of the resigning Trustee and one copy to the successor Trustee. If no successor Trustee shall have been so appointed and having 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 9.07 hereof or if at any
time the Trustee shall be legally unable to act, or shall be adjudged a bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or of its property
or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee. If the Depositor removes the Trustee under the authority of the immediately preceding sentence, the Depositor shall promptly
appoint a successor Trustee that meets the requirements of Section 9.07, by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the successor Trustee and one copy to each of the Servicing Administrator, the Backup
Servicer and the Servicer. 
  
 The Holders of Certificates
entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee and appoint a successor trustee by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set
of which instruments shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders, the Trustee and the
Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer and the Servicer by the Depositor. 
  

 -139- 

 Any resignation or removal of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to any of the
provisions of this Section 9.08 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, as provided in Section 9.10 hereof. 
  
 SECTION 9.09. [RESERVED]. 
  
 SECTION 9.10. Successor Trustee. 
  
 Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 9.08 hereof shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the
Backup Servicer, the Servicing Administrator and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective, and such successor Trustee
without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect as if originally named as Trustee. The Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the
Backup Servicer, the Servicing Administrator and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required for 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 9.10 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be eligible under the provisions of Section 9.07 hereof and the appointment of such successor Trustee shall not
result in a downgrading of the Classes of Certificates rated by the Rating Agencies, as evidenced by a letter from each Rating Agency. 
  
 Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in this Section 9.10, the successor Trustee shall mail notice of such appointment
hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their addresses as shown in the Certificate Register and to the Rating Agencies. 
  
 SECTION 9.11. Merger or Consolidation of the 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 9.07, 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 9.12. Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

  
 Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, at
any time, for the purpose of meeting any legal requirements of any jurisdiction in which any part of the Trust Fund or property securing any Mortgage Note may at the time be located, the Depositor and the Trustee acting jointly shall have the power
and shall execute and deliver all instruments to appoint one or more Persons approved by the Trustee to act as co-trustee or co-trustees jointly with the Trustee, or separate trustee or separate trustees, of all or any part of the Trust Fund, and to
vest in such Person or Persons, in such capacity and for the benefit of the Certificateholders, such title to the Trust Fund or any part thereof, whichever is applicable, and, subject to the other provisions of this Section 9.12, such powers,
duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Depositor and the Trustee may consider necessary or desirable. If the Depositor shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request to do so, or in the case an
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 9.07 and no notice to Certificateholders of the appointment of any co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 9.10. 
  

 -140- 

 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) To the
extent necessary to effectuate the purposes of this Section 9.12, all rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee, except for the obligation of the Trustee in its capacity as successor servicer under this Agreement
to advance funds on behalf of the Servicer, shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized
to act separately without the Trustee joining in such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular set or acts are to be performed (whether as Trustee hereunder or as successor to the Servicing
Administrator, Backup Servicer or the Servicer hereunder), the Trustee shall be incompetent or unqualified to perform such act or acts, in which event such rights, powers, duties and obligations (including the holding of title to the Trust Fund or
any portion thereof in any such jurisdiction) shall be exercised and performed singly by such separate trustee or co-trustee, but solely at the direction of the Trustee; 
  
 (ii) No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder
and such appointment shall not, and shall not be deemed to, constitute any such separate trustee or co-trustee as agent of the Trustee; 
  
 (iii) The Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee; and 
  
 (iv) The Depositor, and not the Trustee, shall be liable for the payment of
reasonable compensation, reimbursement and indemnification to any such separate trustee or co-trustee. 
  
 Any notice, request or other writing given to the Trustee shall be deemed to have been given to each of the separate trustees and co-trustees, when and as
effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article IX. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the trusts
conferred, shall be vested with the estates or property specified in its instrument of appointment, either jointly with the Trustee or separately, as may be provided therein, subject to all the provisions of this Agreement, specifically including
every provision of this Agreement relating to the conduct of, affecting the liability of, or affording protection to, the Trustee. Every such instrument shall be filed with the Trustee and a copy thereof given to the Depositor. 
  
 Any separate trustee or co-trustee may, at any time, constitute the Trustee
its agent or attorney-in-fact, with full power and authority, to the extent not prohibited by law, to do any lawful act under or in respect of this Agreement on its behalf and in its name. If any separate trustee or co-trustee shall die, become
incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor trustee.

 (a) It is intended that each of the REMICs provided for herein REMIC shall
constitute, and that the affairs of the Trust Fund shall be conducted so as to allow each such REMIC to qualify as, a “real estate mortgage investment conduit” as defined in and in accordance with the REMIC 

  

 -141- 

 
Provisions. It is also intended that each of the grantor trusts provided for in Section 2.07 hereof shall constitute, and that the affairs of the Trust Fund
shall be conducted so as to allow each such grantor trust to qualify as, a grantor trust under the provisions of Subpart E, Part I of Subchapter J of the Code. In furtherance of such intention, the Securities Administrator covenants and agrees that
it shall act as agent (and the Securities Administrator is hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of each of the REMICs and grantor trusts provided for herein and that in such capacity it shall: (a) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and
filed, in a timely manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit Income Tax Return (Form 1066 or any successor form adopted by the Internal Revenue Service) and prepare and file or cause to be prepared and filed with the Internal Revenue
Service and applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or information returns for each taxable year with respect to each of the REMICs and grantor trusts provided for herein, containing such information and at the times and in the manner

originally named as Securities Administrator. The Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer, the Backup Servicer, the Servicing Administrator and the predecessor Securities Administrator shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things
as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Securities Administrator, all such rights, powers, duties and obligations.

by SLS of an Optional Termination in accordance with the last paragraph of this Section 10.01; and (b) the later of (i) the maturity or other liquidation (or any Advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund and
the disposition of all REO Property and (ii) the distribution to Certificateholders of all amounts required to be distributed to them pursuant to this Agreement, as applicable. In no event shall the trusts created hereby continue beyond the earlier

Distribution Date. 
  
 Any termination pursuant to clause (a)
above shall be effected by SLS purchasing all Mortgage Loans and REO Properties at a price equal to the Optional Termination Price. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Optional Termination Price paid by SLS shall be deposited by the
Securities Administrator directly into the Certificate Account immediately upon Optional Termination. 
  
 The right of SLS to effect an Optional Termination pursuant to clause (a) above shall be conditioned upon (i) the consent of the holders of the majority
interest in the Class X Certificates and (ii) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans, at the time of any such repurchase, aggregating ten (10) percent or less of the sum of (x) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date and (y) the Original Pre-Funded Amount. 
  

 -149- 

 SECTION 10.02. Final Distribution on the Certificates. 
  
 If on any Determination Date, (i) the Securities Administrator determines
that there are no Outstanding Mortgage Loans and no other funds or assets in the Trust Fund other than the funds in the Collection Account, the Securities Administrator shall send a final distribution notice promptly to each Certificateholder or
(ii) the Securities Administrator determines that a Class of Certificates shall be retired after a final distribution on such Class, the Securities Administrator shall notify the Certificateholders within seven (7) Business Days after such
Determination Date that the final distribution in retirement of such Class of Certificates is scheduled to be made on the immediately following Distribution Date. Any final distribution made pursuant to the immediately preceding sentence will be
made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Securities Administrator specified in such notice. If the Servicer elects to terminate the Trust Fund pursuant to clause (a) of Section 10.01, at least 10 days prior
to the date notice is to be mailed to the affected Certificateholders, the Securities Administrator shall notify the Depositor and the Trustee of the date such electing party intends to terminate the Trust Fund and of the applicable repurchase price
of the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties. 
  
 Notice of any
termination of the Trust Fund, specifying the Distribution Date on which Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by the Securities Administrator by letter to
Certificateholders mailed not earlier than the 10th day and no later than the 15th day of the month immediately preceding the month of such final distribution. Any such notice shall specify (a) the Distribution Date upon which final
distribution on the Certificates will be made upon presentation and surrender of Certificates at the office therein designated, (b) the location of the office or agency at which such presentation and surrender must be made, and (c) that the Record
Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distributions being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office therein specified. The Securities Administrator will give such notice to the
Rating Agency at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. 
  
 In the event such notice is given, the Securities Administrator shall cause all funds in the Collection Account and the Servicing Administrator Collection Account to be deposited in the Certificate Account on the Business Day prior to the
applicable Distribution Date in an amount equal to the final distribution in respect of the Certificates. Upon such final deposit with respect to the Trust Fund, certification to the Trustee that such required amount has been deposited in the Trust
Fund and the receipt by the Trustee of a Request for Release therefor, the Trustee shall promptly release to the Mortgage Files for the Mortgage Loans. 
  
 Upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates, the Securities Administrator shall cause to be distributed to Certificateholders of each Class the
amounts allocable to such Certificates held in the Certificate Account in the order and priority set forth in Section 5.05 hereof on the final Distribution Date and in proportion to their respective Percentage Interests. 
  
 In the event that any affected Certificateholders shall not surrender
Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the above mentioned written notice, the Securities Administrator shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for
cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within six months after the second notice all the applicable Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Securities Administrator may take appropriate
steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds and other assets that remain a part of the Trust
Fund. If within one year after the second notice all Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Class R 

  

 -150- 

 
Certificateholders shall be entitled to all unclaimed funds and other assets of the Trust Fund that remain subject hereto. Upon payment to the Class R
Certificateholders of such funds and assets, neither the Securities Administrator nor the Trustee shall have any further duties or obligations with respect thereto. 
  
 SECTION 10.03. Additional Termination Requirements. 
  
 (a) In the event SLS exercises its option to effect an Optional Termination as provided in Section 10.01, the Trust Fund
shall be terminated in accordance with the following additional requirements, unless the Trustee has been supplied with an Opinion of Counsel, at the expense of SLS to the effect that the failure of the Trust Fund to comply with the requirements of
this Section 10.03 will not (i) result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of any of the REMICs provided for herein as defined in section 860F of the Code, or (ii) cause any of the REMICs provided for herein to fail to
qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding: 
  
 (i) The Depositor shall establish a 90-day liquidation period and notify the Trustee and the Securities Administrator thereof, which shall in turn specify the first day of such period in a statement attached to the final tax returns of each
of the REMICs provided for herein pursuant to Treasury Regulation Section 1.860F-1. The Depositor shall satisfy all the 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 Servicer; 
  
 (ii)
During such 90-day liquidation period, and at or prior to the time of making the final payment on the Certificates, the Depositor as agent of the Trustee shall sell all of the assets of the Trust Fund for cash; and 
  
 (iii) At the time of the making of the final payment on the Certificates,
the Securities Administrator shall distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed or credited, to the Class R Certificateholders all cash on hand (other than cash retained to meet outstanding claims), and the Trust Fund shall terminate at that
time, whereupon neither the Securities Administrator nor the Trustee shall have any further duties or obligations with respect to sums distributed or credited to the Class R Certificateholders. 
  
 (b) By their acceptance of the Certificates, the Holders thereof hereby
authorize the Depositor to specify the 90-day liquidation period for the Trust Fund, which authorization shall be binding upon all successor Certificateholders.

 ARTICLE XI 
  
 MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS 
  
 SECTION 11.01. Amendment. 
  
 This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders to: 
  
 (i) cure any ambiguity or correct any mistake, 
  

 -151- 

 (ii) correct, modify or supplement any provision therein which may be inconsistent with any other
provision herein, 
  
 (iii) add any other provisions with respect
to matters or questions arising under this Agreement, or 
  
 (iv)
modify, alter, amend, add to or rescind any of the terms or provisions contained in this Agreement, provided, however, that, in the case of clauses (iii) and (iv), such amendment will not, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect,
adversely effect in any material respect the interests of any Holder; provided, further, however, that such amendment will be deemed to not adversely affect in any material respect the interest of any Holder if the Person requesting such amendment
obtains a letter from each Rating Agency stating that such amendment will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of its rating of any Class of the Certificates, it being understood and agreed that any such letter in and of itself will not represent
a determination as to the materiality of any such amendment and will represent a determination only as to the credit issues affecting any such rating. 
  
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of the Certificateholders, the Depositor, the Servicing Administrator, the Servicer, the Securities
Administrator and the Trustee may at any time and from time to time amend this Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary or appropriate to maintain the qualification of any of the REMICs
provided for herein as REMICs under the Code or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund or any of the REMICs provided for herein pursuant to the Code that would be a claim against the Trust Fund at any time prior
to the final redemption of the Certificates, provided that the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall have been provided an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting such amendment but in any case shall
not be an expense of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, to the effect that such action is necessary or appropriate to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of such a tax. 
  
 This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the
Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Holders of the Certificates affected thereby evidencing not less than 66 2/3% of the Voting Rights for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any
of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders of Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments
required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Holders of any Class of Certificates in a manner other than as described in (i),
without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing 66 2/3% or more of the Voting Rights of such Class or (iii) reduce the aforesaid percentages of Certificates the Holders of which are required to consent to any such
amendment without the consent of the Holders of all such Certificates then outstanding. 
  
 Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, the Trustee shall not consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel, which opinion shall be an expense
of the party requesting such amendment but in any case shall not be an expense of the Trustee, to the effect that such amendment will not cause the imposition of any tax on the Trust Fund, any of the REMICs provided for herein or the
Certificateholders or cause any of the REMICs provided for herein to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. 
  
 Promptly after the execution of any amendment to this Agreement requiring the consent of Certificateholders, the Trustee or upon the written request of
the Trustee to the Securities Administrator, the Securities Administrator shall furnish written notification of the substance of such amendment to each Certificateholder and the Rating Agencies. 
  

 -152- 

 It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 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 Securities Administrator may prescribe. 
  
 Nothing in this Agreement shall require the Trustee or the Securities Administrator to enter into an amendment without receiving an Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to the Trustee or the Securities Administrator that
(i) such amendment is permitted and is not prohibited by this Agreement and that all requirements for amending this Agreement have been complied with; and (ii) either (A) the amendment does not adversely affect in any material respect the interests
of any Certificateholder or (B) the conclusion set forth in the immediately preceding clause (A) is not required to be reached pursuant to this Section 11.01. 
  

The Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any supplement, modification or waiver which affects its rights, duties or obligations
hereunder. 
  
 SECTION 11.02. Counterparts. 
  
 This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts,
each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. 
  
 SECTION 11.03. Governing Law. 
  
 THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE SUBSTANTIVE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK APPLICABLE TO AGREEMENTS MADE AND TO

 SECTION 11.04. Intention of Parties. 
  
 It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the
Mortgage Notes, Mortgages, assignments of Mortgages, title insurance policies and any modifications, extensions and/or assumption agreements and private mortgage insurance policies relating to the Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trustee be,
and be construed as, an absolute sale thereof to the Trustee. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge thereof by the Depositor to the Trustee. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of
the parties, such assets are held to be the property of the Depositor, or if for any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in such assets, then (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement
within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York and (ii) the conveyance provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an assignment and a grant by the Depositor to the Trustee, for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, of a security interest in all of the assets that constitute the Trust Fund, whether now owned or hereafter acquired. 
  
 The Depositor for the benefit of the Certificateholders shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to
ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the assets of the Trust Fund, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as
such throughout the term 

  

 -153- 

 
of the Agreement. The Depositor shall arrange for filing any Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements in connection with any security interest granted
or assigned to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.

 SECTION 11.06. Severability of Provisions. 

 
 If any one or more of the covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of
this Agreement shall be for any reason whatsoever held invalid, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect

Securities Administrator without the prior written consent of the Depositor. 
  
 SECTION 11.08. Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders. 
  
 The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such

of the parties hereto or any of them. 
  
 No Certificateholder
shall have any right to vote (except as provided 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

parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof. 
  
 No
Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue or by availing itself of any provisions of this Agreement to institute any suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law upon or under or with respect to this Agreement, unless such Holder previously
shall have given to the Trustee a written notice of an Event of Default and of the continuance thereof, as hereinbefore provided, the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights evidenced by the Certificates shall also
have made written request to the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and shall have offered to the Trustee such indemnity satisfactory to it as it may require against 

  

 -155- 

 
the costs, expenses, and liabilities to be incurred therein or thereby, and the Trustee, for 60 days after its receipt of such notice, request and offer of
indemnity shall have neglected or refused to institute any such action, suit or proceeding; it being understood and intended, and being expressly covenanted by each Certificateholder with every other Certificateholder and the Trustee, that no one or
more Holders of Certificates shall have any right in any manner whatever by virtue or by availing itself or themselves of any provisions of this Agreement to affect, disturb or prejudice the rights of the Holders of any other of the Certificates, or
to obtain or seek to obtain priority over or preference to any other such Holder or to enforce any right under this Agreement, except in the manner herein provided and for the common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the protection and
enforcement of the provisions of this Section 11.08, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity.

 The Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer and the Servicer each agree that, on reasonable prior notice, it will

the Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer or the Servicer relating to the Mortgage Loans, to make copies and extracts therefrom, to cause such books to be audited by independent certified public accountants selected by the Depositor or the
Trustee and to discuss its affairs, finances and accounts relating to the Mortgage Loans with its officers, employees, agents, counsel and independent public accountants (and by this provision the Servicing Administrator, the Backup Servicer or the
Servicer hereby authorizes such accountants to discuss with such representative such affairs, finances and accounts), all at such reasonable times and as often as may be reasonably requested. Any out-of-pocket expense incident to the exercise by the
Depositor or the Trustee of any right under this Section 11.09 shall be borne by the party requesting such inspection (except in the case of the Trustee in which case such expenses shall be borne by the requesting Certificateholder(s)); all other
such expenses shall be borne by the Servicer. 
  
 SECTION 11.10.
Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid.

 In accordance with Section 2.02 of the above-captioned Pooling and Servicing

(other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or listed on the attachment hereto) the Custodian has reviewed the Mortgage File and the Mortgage Loan Schedule and has determined that: 
  
 (i) All documents in the Mortgage File required to be delivered to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.01 of the Pooling and

 (ii) In connection
with each Mortgage Loan or Assignment thereof as to which documentary evidence of recording was not received on the Closing Date, it has received evidence of such recording; and

 Ladies and Gentlemen: 
  
 We propose to purchase Terwin Mortgage Trust, Asset-Backed Certificates, Series TMTS 2005-6HE, Class R, described in the
Prospectus Supplement, dated April 15, 2005, and Prospectus, dated January 19, 2005. 
  
 1. We certify that (a) we are not a disqualified organization and (b) we are not purchasing such Class R Certificate on behalf of a disqualified organization; for this purpose the term “disqualified
organization” means the United States, any state or political subdivision thereof, any foreign government, any international organization, any agency or instrumentality of any of the foregoing (except any entity treated as other than an
instrumentality of the foregoing for purposes of Section 168(h)(2)(D) of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”)), any organization (other than a cooperative described in Section 521 of the Code) that is exempt from
taxation under the Code (unless such organization is subject to tax on excess inclusions) and any organization that is described in Section 1381(a)(2)(C) of the Code. We understand that any breach by us of this certification may cause us to be
liable for an excise tax imposed upon transfers to disqualified organizations. 
  
 2. We certify that (a) we have historically paid our debts as they became due, (b) we intend, and believe that we will be able, to continue to pay our debts as they become due in the future, (c) we understand that, as
beneficial owner of the Class R Certificate, we may incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the Class R Certificate, and (d) we intend to pay any taxes associated with holding the Class R Certificate as they become due and (e)
we will not cause income from the Class R Certificate to be attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base (within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty) of ours or another U.S. taxpayer. 

 3. We acknowledge that we will be the beneficial owner of the Class R Certificate and:1 
  

	 	            	The Class R Certificate will be registered in our name. 

  

	 	            	The Class R Certificate will be held in the name of our nominee,             , which is not a disqualified
organization. 

  
 4. We certify that we are not an
employee benefit plan or arrangement subject to Title I of the Employee Retirement Income Security Act of 1974, as amended (“ERISA”), a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as amended (the “Code”) or
a plan subject to any provisions under any federal, state, local, non-U.S. or other laws or regulations that are substantively similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively, a “Plan”), and we are not directly or
indirectly acquiring the Class R Certificate for, on behalf of or with any assets of any such Plan. 
  
 5. We certify that (i) we are a U.S. person or (ii) we will hold the Class R Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the
United States and have furnished the transferor, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator with a duly completed and effective Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or successor form at the time and in the manner required by the Code; for this
purpose the term “U.S. person” means a citizen or resident of the United States, a corporation, or partnership (unless, in the case of a partnership, Treasury regulations are adopted that provide otherwise) created or organized in or under
the laws of the United States, any State thereof or the District of Columbia, including an entity treated as a corporation or partnership for federal income tax purposes, an estate whose income is subject to United States federal income tax
regardless of the source of its income, or a trust if a court within the United States is able to exercise primary supervision over the administration of the trust and one or more such U.S. persons have the authority to control all substantial
decisions of the trust (or, to the extent provided in applicable Treasury regulations, certain trusts in existence on August 20, 1996 which are eligible to elect to be treated as U.S. Persons. We agree that any breach by us of this certification
shall render the transfer of any interest in the Class R Certificate to us absolutely null and void and shall cause no rights in the Class R Certificate to vest in us. 
  
 6. We agree that in the event that at some future time we wish to transfer any interest in the Class R Certificate, we will
transfer such interest in the Class R Certificate only (a) to a transferee that (i) is not a disqualified organization and is not purchasing such interest in the Class R Certificate on behalf of a disqualified organization, (ii) is a U.S. person or
will hold the Class R Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and will furnish us, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator with a duly completed and effective Internal Revenue Service Form
W-8ECI or successor form at the time and in the manner required by the Code and (iii) has delivered to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator a letter in the form of this letter (including the affidavit appended hereto) and, we will provide
