Fund or the REMIC, and to carry out the covenants set forth in this Article XII and the elections and reporting required in Section 8.11 on behalf of the REMIC, including making the appropriate election to treat such segregated asset pool as a
REMIC and maintaining a segregated account (the “Certificate Account”). The rights to the Cap Amounts shall be accounted for as notional principal contracts (provided by the holder of the Class R Certificate and funded from distributions

Servicer nor the Trustee shall create, or permit the creation of, any “interests” in the REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860D(a)(2) other than the interests represented by the Certificates. 
  

 19 

 (d) Except as otherwise provided in the Code, CRMSI shall not grant, and neither the Servicer nor the

and (ii) no property shall be granted to the REMIC after the Startup Day, unless such grant would not subject the REMIC to the 100% tax on contributions to a REMIC after the Startup Day imposed by Code Section 860G(d). 
 (e) The Trustee shall not accept on behalf of the Trust Fund or the REMIC any fee or other compensation for services and shall not accept on behalf of
the Trust Fund any income from assets other than those permitted to be held by a REMIC. 
 (f) Neither the Servicer nor the Trustee will sell
or permit the sale of all or any portion of the Mortgage Loans, or of an Eligible Investment held in an Investment Account (other than in accordance with Sections 2.02, 2.03, 2.04 and 4.03(d)) unless such sale is pursuant to a “qualified
liquidation” as defined in Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A) and is in accordance with Section 9.01. 
 Section 12.05. Expenses
and Liabilities of the Trust Fund. The Depositor shall be liable for all expenses, liabilities and obligations of the Trust Fund (other than the obligation to make distributions in reduction of Principal Balance of the Certificates and the
obligation to make distributions of interest on the Certificates) including Trust Expenses. To the extent such expenses, liabilities or obligations consist of federal income taxes, including, without limitation, prohibited transaction taxes, taxes
on net income from foreclosure property and taxes on certain contributions to a REMIC after the Startup Day, nothing shall prevent the Depositor from contesting any such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings. If the
Paying Agent determines that on any Distribution Date the amount in the Collection Account, after the distribution of all amounts required to be distributed to the Holders of the Certificates has been made, is insufficient to pay expenses or meet
any obligation of the Trust Fund, the Paying Agent or the Trustee, as applicable, shall give notice of any shortfall to the Depositor setting forth the basis for such determination and, within ten Business Days of such notice, the Depositor shall
deliver to the Paying Agent immediately available funds in the amount of such expenses.

time during the taxable year or at the time such designation is made, (ii) if the Servicer is not a holder of a residual certificate of the REMIC at the relevant time, the Servicer as agent for the holder of the residual certificate of the
REMIC, if such designation is permitted to be made under the Code, or (iii) such holder of a residual certificate of the REMIC or person who may be designated a tax matters person in the same manner in which a tax matters partner may be

  

 20 

 
designated under applicable Treasury Regulations, including Treasury Regulations § 1.860F-4(d) and temporary Treasury Regulations
§ 301.6231(a)(7)-1T. 
 Section 12.07. Sale of Trust Fund Property. In the event that the Depositor (or its assignee) shall
not exercise the Right to Repurchase on the Optional Termination Date, the Trustee, at the written direction of the Depositor given not later than the Optional Termination Date, shall solicit bids to purchase for cash the Mortgage Loans and any REO
Property in the Trust Fund (collectively, the “Assets”). The Servicer will cooperate with the Trustee in furnishing information relating to the Assets to potential bidders, to the extent such information can be provided without undue
expense and subject always to the Mortgagor privacy policies of the Servicer. Not later than 90 days after the Optional Termination Date, the Trustee will select the highest bid and agree with such bidder a proposed date of sale, which shall be the
New York business day preceding the anticipated final Distribution Date (the “Sale Date”), provided that such sale of the Assets is permitted (and the Trustee shall accept such highest bid) if and only if the proceeds of such sale,
together with any cash on deposit in the Certificate Account, after reimbursement to the Trustee of its outstanding expenses and disbursements (including those related to such bidding and sale and those of its agents, counsel and other experts
retained in connection therewith) and to the Servicer of its Net Delinquency Advances and Net Servicing Advances, would be sufficient to pay in full the sum of (x) the Class A Principal Balance and the Class M Principal Balance and
(y) accrued and unpaid interest on the Class A and Class M Certificates for the period from (and including) the last Distribution Date on which interest was paid to (but excluding) the Sale Date. If the Trustee receives a bid satisfying
the preceding sentence, then the Trustee’s written acceptance of such bid shall constitute a plan of complete liquidation within the meaning of Section 860F of the Code. In connection with the solicitation of bids, any sale or contemplated
sale of the Assets and related matters, the Trustee shall have the authority to retain and consult with agents, counsel and other experts (including any underwriter of the Certificates) and the provisions of Sections 8.02 and 8.05 shall be
applicable thereto. The Servicer, the Depositor and their Affiliates may submit bids to purchase the Assets, and purchase the Assets, on the same basis as a non-Affiliate. 
 Not later than the Sale Date, the Depositor will, at its expense, cause the Opinion of Counsel or other evidence required by Section 9.01(c) to be
delivered to the Trustee. 
 The Trustee shall, within two New York business days after agreement with the bidder on the Sale Date, give
notice thereof to Certificateholders, instructing them to surrender their Certificates by the final Distribution Date for final payment thereon, in the manner contemplated by Section 9.01(d), to the extent applicable. For purposes of
Section 9.01(d), such notice of termination shall be given not later than 20 days prior to the final Distribution Date. The Trustee shall apply the net proceeds of the sale in accordance with Section 13.01. The Trustee is authorized to
enter into a purchase agreement reasonably satisfactory to it covering the Assets and, upon payment of the purchase price, deliver the Assets and related Mortgage Files to the purchaser. 
 If such a sale is not consummated for any reason, including the reason that no bid or no sufficient bid was obtained, then the Trustee shall have no
further duty or obligation to sell the Assets under this Section, and the Trustee shall be reimbursed by the Depositor for its costs and 

  

 21 

 
expenses (including those of its agents, counsel and experts as contemplated herein) reasonably incurred in connection with its performance under this
Section. 
 The Trustee shall have no obligation under this Section other than to solicit bids on one occasion, and conduct any related sale,
in accordance with the provisions of this Section. In particular, the Trustee shall have no obligation to make any representations regarding the credit quality, performance or enforceability of the Assets.

 ARTICLE II 
 CONVEYANCE OF TRUST FUND; ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES 
 Section 2.01 Conveyance of Trust Fund. CRMSI, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, does hereby transfer, assign, set
over and otherwise convey to the Trustee without recourse, all the right, title and interest of CRMSI in and to the Trust Fund, including without limitation all of the right, title and interest of CRMSI in the Mortgage Loans, including all amounts
received or receivable by CRMSI on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than payments of principal and interest due and payable on the Mortgage Loans, and Principal Prepayments thereon received, on or before the Cut-Off Date), together with
all of its right, title and interest in and to the proceeds of any title, hazard or other insurance policies, or Primary Mortgage Insurance Certificates, related to such Mortgage Loans. The transfer of the Mortgage Loans hereunder is absolute and is
intended by the parties hereto as a sale. It is the intention of CRMSI that all Mortgage Loans transferred to the Trust Fund be removed from CRMSI’s assets and estate. If the transfer of the Mortgage Loans is instead characterized as a pledge
and not as a sale, then (x) CRMSI shall be deemed to have granted to the Trustee a first priority security interest in all of CRMSI’s right, title and interest in and to such the Mortgage Loans and other assets of the Trust Fund and
(y) it is the intention of the parties that this Agreement constitute a security agreement under applicable law in favor of the Trustee, as secured party hereunder. CRMSI shall not transfer any additional property to the Trust Fund except as
expressly permitted by this Agreement. 
 (a) (1) In connection with such transfer and assignment of Mortgage Loans, CRMSI does herewith
deliver to the Trustee (or to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) to be held in trust the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so transferred and assigned (except where, and to the extent, CRMSI is complying with
Section 2.01(b)): 
 (i) The Mortgage Note, endorsed (whether by means of an allonge or otherwise) by manual or facsimile
signature without recourse by the Originator or an Affiliate of the Originator in blank or to the Trustee showing a complete chain of endorsements from the named payee to the Trustee or from the named payee to the Affiliate of the Originator and
from such Affiliate to the Trustee or, for any lost, misplaced or destroyed Mortgage Note, an original Lost Note Affidavit, provided that endorsement is not required where MERS is the named payee or the nominee of the named payee; 
 (ii) The original recorded Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon, or a copy of the Mortgage certified by the public recording office
in those jurisdictions where the public recording office retains the original; 
  

 19 

 (iii) Any original assumption or modification agreement applicable to the Mortgage;

 (iv) An assignment from the Originator to the Trustee in recordable form of the Mortgage which may be included, where
permitted by local law, in a blanket assignment or assignments of the Mortgage to the Trustee, including any intervening assignments and showing a complete chain of title from the original mortgagee named under the Mortgage to CRMSI or an Affiliate
of CRMSI and to the Trustee, provided that (x) if the Mortgage is registered with MERS, only assignments from the originator of the Mortgage to MERS will be required and (y) if the Mortgage was originated with MERS as the original
mortgagee, no interim assignment will be required; and 
 (v) Either (x) the original or a copy of the title insurance
policy (which may be a certificate or a short form policy relating to a master policy of title insurance) or the title searches pertaining to the Mortgaged Property, or in the event such original title policy is unavailable, a copy of the
preliminary title report and the lender’s recording instructions, with the original to be delivered within 180 days of the Issue Date or other evidence of title or (y) in jurisdictions where such practice is customary and acceptable, an
attorney’s opinion as to title or an insured title report. 
 (2) In addition, CRMSI, concurrently with the execution and delivery of
this Agreement and in connection with such transfer and assignment of Mortgage Loans shall deposit in the Collection Account the amount of all payments received by CRMSI after the Cut-Off Date and prior to the Issue Date with respect to the Mortgage
Loans, to the extent such payments are being transferred and assigned to the Trustee hereunder, except any portion of such payments on Mortgage Loans (including servicing fees) of a type not required to be deposited as specified in Article XII.

 (b) In instances where an original recorded Mortgage cannot be delivered to the Trustee by the Issue Date, due to a delay in the
recording, CRMSI may (a) in lieu of delivering such original recorded Mortgage referred to in clause (a)(1)(ii) above, deliver to the Trustee a copy thereof, provided that CRMSI certifies that the original Mortgage has been delivered to a title
insurance company for recordation after receipt of its policy of title insurance or binder therefor (which may be a certificate relating to a master policy of title insurance), and (b) in lieu of delivering the completed assignment in
recordable form referred to in clause (a)(1)(iv) above to the Trustee, deliver such assignment to the Trustee completed except for recording information. In such instances, CRMSI will deliver the original recorded Mortgage and completed assignment
(if applicable) to the Trustee promptly upon receipt thereof. In instances where an original recorded Mortgage or assignment has been lost or misplaced, CRMSI or the related title insurance company may deliver, in lieu thereof, a copy of such
Mortgage or assignment bearing recordation information. In instances where the original or a copy of the title insurance policy referred to in clause (a)(1)(v)(x) above pertaining to a Mortgaged Property cannot be delivered to the Trustee by the
Issue Date because such policy is not yet available, CRMSI may deliver to the Trustee a binder with respect to such policy and deliver the original or a copy of such policy to the Trustee when available. In instances where an original assumption or
modification agreement cannot be delivered to the Trustee by the Issue Date, CRMSI may deliver a certified copy thereof, and will deliver the original assumption or modification agreement to the Trustee promptly upon receipt thereof. 
 CRMSI agrees, at its own expense, to prepare each assignment referred to in clause (a)(1)(iv) above and deliver a copy of each such assignment to the
Trustee as soon as practicable but not later than 60 days after the Issue Date. CRMSI intends to effect recordation of each such assignment (or to supply the Trustee with evidence of recordation) as soon as practicable after the Issue Date in the
appropriate public office for real property records in each jurisdiction in which such recordation is required by a Rating Agency. In addition, in the event that on a Distribution Date a Mortgage Loan is 90 days Delinquent, if recordation of
assignment is required by any Rating Agency under its then current ratings 

  

 20 

 
criteria, then CRMSI shall effect recordation of an assignment of the related Mortgage to the Trustee promptly thereafter. Except as provided in this
paragraph, neither CRMSI nor any Originator or Affiliate of any Originator shall have any obligation to record any assignment of any Mortgage in order to name the Trustee as mortgagee of record. The preceding sentence shall not be in derogation of
the obligation of CRMSI, the Originators and Affiliates of the Originators to record (and supply the Trustee with evidence thereof) assignments of Mortgages required in order that CRMSI, an Originator or an Affiliate of an Originator be shown as
mortgagee of record of each Mortgage. 
 In the case of Mortgage Loans which have been prepaid in full after the Cut-Off Date and prior to
the Issue Date, CRMSI, in lieu of delivering the above documents to the Trustee, herewith delivers to the Trustee a Request for Release as set forth in Section 3.12(a). In connection with such transfer and delivery of the balance of the Trust
Fund, CRMSI, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, shall deposit into the Collection Account cash in the amount (if any) specified in Article XII. 
 Wherever it is provided in this Section 2.01 that any document, evidence or information relating to a Mortgage Loan be delivered or supplied to the
Trustee, CRMSI or the Servicer, as applicable, shall do so by delivery thereof to the Custodian, to be held on behalf of the Trustee. The functions of the Trustee under this Agreement with respect to the custody, acceptance, inspection and release
of the Mortgage Files (including the review provided for in Section 2.02) shall be performed by the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee. 
 (c) The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it is not intended that any mortgage loan be included in the Trust Fund that is a “High-Cost” or “Covered” mortgage loan as defined by the U.S. Home Ownership and Equity
Protection Act of 1994, as amended, or any other applicable local, state or federal predatory or abusive lending laws. 
 Section 2.02
Acceptance by Trustee. The Trustee, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt, subject to the review described in the following paragraph, of the documents and other property referred to in Section 2.01 and declares that the
Trustee holds and will hold such documents and other property, including property yet to be received in the Trust Fund, in trust, upon the trusts herein set forth, for the benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. 
 The Trustee (or the Custodian on the Trustee’s behalf) shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, review each Mortgage File within 180 days
after the Issue Date, to ascertain that all required documents have been executed, received and recorded, if applicable, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans identified in Exhibit B. If in the course of such review the Trustee finds
a document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be defective in any material respect, the Trustee shall promptly so notify CRMSI, whereupon CRMSI shall have a period of 180 days within which to correct or cure any such defect
(including correction or cure by substitution if permitted by Section 2.04). If any such material defect has not been corrected or cured, CRMSI will, not later than 180 days after the Trustee’s notice respecting such defect, repurchase the
related Mortgage Loan from the Trustee at a price (the “Loan Repurchase Price”) equal to (i) the Loan Balance of such Mortgage Loan as of the date of repurchase, plus, (ii) to the extent not previously advanced by the Servicer,
accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the Mortgage Note Rate to (but not including) the date of repurchase, plus (iii) any unreimbursed payments with respect to such Mortgage Loan, to the extent not covered in (ii) above, as part of a
Servicing Advance or a Delinquency Advance, plus (iv) any unreimbursed costs, penalties or damages incurred by the Trustee or the Trust Fund in connection with any violation of applicable predatory or abusive lending laws with respect to such
Mortgage Loan or otherwise incurred in connection with such material defect. Notwithstanding the preceding two sentences, any material defect that causes a Mortgage Loan to fail to constitute a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of
Code Section 860G(a)(3) shall either be corrected or cured by CRMSI or, failing such correction or cure, CRMSI shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Loan Repurchase Price (or, if within two years of the Startup Day, or such other period as
may be permitted by the REMIC Provisions, substitute a Qualified 

  

 21 

 
Substitute Mortgage Loan therefor pursuant to Section 2.04) no later than 90 days after the discovery of such material defect. Any such repurchase shall
be considered a prepayment in full of such Mortgage Loan on date of repurchase and shall be deposited by CRMSI in the Collection Account and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such deposit signed by an Authorized Officer of
CRMSI, the Trustee shall release to CRMSI or its designee the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment furnished to the Trustee, in each case without recourse, as CRMSI shall reasonably request,
to vest in CRMSI or such designee any Mortgage Loan so released. Any repurchase by CRMSI of a Mortgage Loan hereunder shall be deemed to include the right to receive any Monthly Payment or other remittance thereon payable or received after the date
of repurchase, and the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall, upon receipt thereof, promptly remit the amount of such Monthly Payment or other remittance to CRMSI. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of CRMSI to repurchase any Mortgage Loan
or make a substitution therefor pursuant to Section 2.04 as to which a material defect in a constituent document exists shall constitute the sole remedy against CRMSI with respect to such defect available to the Certificateholders or the
Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.

 (iii) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by it, the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by it under this Agreement, and the
fulfillment of or compliance with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business of the Servicer and will not (A) result in a material breach of any term or provision of the charter or by-laws of the Servicer or (B) materially
conflict with, result in a material breach, violation or acceleration of, or result in a material default under, the terms of any other material agreement or instrument to which it is a party or by which it may be bound, or (C) constitute a
material violation of any statute, order or regulation applicable to it of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over it.

 Section
2.04 Substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Nonconforming Mortgage Loans. (a) CRMSI shall have the right, in an event requiring a repurchase pursuant to Section 2.02 or 2.03(a), to substitute one or more Qualified
Substitute Mortgage Loans for any one or more nonconforming Mortgage Loans, any such substitution to take place on the Business Day designated by CRMSI (the “Substitution Day”) occurring before a date two years after the Startup Day,
subject to the Trustee receiving an Officer’s Certificate of CRMSI attaching as an exhibit a supplemental Mortgage Loan schedule (the “Supplemental Mortgage Loan Schedule”) setting forth the same type of information as appears on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule and representing as to the accuracy thereof and confirming that the representations and warranties contained in Section 2.03(a) (other than paragraphs (i) and (xi) 

  

 24 

 
thereof) are true and correct in all material respects with respect to the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans on and as of the Substitution Day, provided
that remedies for the inaccuracy of such representation are limited as set forth in Sections 2.02, 2.03(a) and this 2.04. CRMSI shall also deposit on the Substitution Day an amount equal to any unreimbursed costs, penalties or damages incurred by
the Trustee or the Trust Fund in connection with any violation of applicable predatory or abusive lending laws with respect to such nonconforming Mortgage Loan or Loans. 
 (b) In the event that, on the Substitution Day, any Prepaid Installments have been deposited for such replaced Mortgage Loan, the full amount of such Prepaid Installments shall be paid on the Substitution Day to CRMSI
from the Collection Account. 
 (c) Concurrently with the satisfaction of the conditions set forth in Section 2.04(a) and the grant of
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans to the Trustee pursuant to Section 2.04(a), (A) Exhibit B to this Agreement shall be deemed to be amended to exclude all Mortgage Loans being replaced by such Qualified Substitute Mortgage
Loans and to include, pursuant to Section 10.01, the information set forth on the Supplemental Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans, and all references in this Agreement to Mortgage Loans shall include
such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans and (B) the Trustee shall release to CRMSI or its designee the nonconforming Mortgage Loan or Loans and related Mortgage Files and execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment as may be
required to transfer, without recourse, to CRMSI or such designee such nonconforming Mortgage Loan or Loans.

 Section 2.07 Permitted Activities. The Trust is created for the
object and purposes of engaging in Permitted Activities.

executed Mortgage Notes have been or will be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on its behalf) in accordance with this Agreement. 
 (b) The Mortgage File Custodial Agreement provides that the Custodian is holding the Mortgage Notes that evidence the Mortgage Loans solely on behalf of and for the benefit of the Trustee and the Holders of Certificates. 
 (c) None of the Mortgage Notes has any marks or notations indicating that it has been pledged, assigned or otherwise conveyed to any person other than

 ARTICLE III 
 ADMINISTRATION
AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS 
 Section 3.01 Servicing. Acting directly or through one or more Subservicers as provided in
Section 3.03, the Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement, the terms of the respective Mortgage Loans, all applicable laws (including, without limitation, any applicable predatory and abusive
lending laws), and its normal and customary servicing standards, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or
desirable. The Servicer shall not be required to 

  

 25 

 
institute litigation for collection of any payment if it reasonably questions its ability to enforce the provision of the Mortgage Loan under which the
payment is required. Subject to the terms hereof, the Servicer shall have full power and authority to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, customary consents, waivers and similar instruments. 
 Subject to Section 3.03, the Servicer may, and is hereby authorized to, perform any of its servicing responsibilities with respect to all or certain
of the Mortgage Loans through a Subservicer as it may from time to time designate, but no such designation of a Subservicer shall serve to release the Servicer from any of its obligations under this Agreement. Such Subservicer shall have the rights
and powers of the Servicer which have been delegated to such Subservicer with respect to such Mortgage Loans under this Agreement. 
 Without
limiting the generality of the foregoing, but subject to Sections 3.11 and 3.12, the Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Subservicer may be authorized and empowered pursuant to a power of attorney executed and delivered by the Trustee to
execute and deliver, and may be authorized and empowered by the Trustee to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself, the Holders and the Trustee or any of them, (i) any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of partial or full
release or discharge and all other comparable instruments with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties, (ii) to institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed in lieu of foreclosure so as to effect ownership of any
Mortgaged Property in the name of the Servicer on behalf of the Trustee, and (iii) to hold title to any Mortgaged Property upon such foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure on behalf of the Trustee. Section 3.11(a) and
Section 3.12(a) shall each constitute a revocable power of attorney from the Trustee to the Servicer to execute an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without recourse) for any Mortgage Loan held by the Trustee paid in full or
foreclosed (or for which payment in full has been escrowed). Revocation of such power of attorney shall take effect upon (i) the receipt by the Servicer of written notice thereof from the Trustee or (ii) the termination of the Trust. Upon
written instructions from the Servicer, the Trustee shall execute any documentation furnished to it by the Servicer for recordation by the Servicer in the appropriate jurisdictions as shall be necessary to effectuate the foregoing. Subject to
Sections 3.11 and 3.12, the Trustee shall execute a power of attorney to the Servicer or any Subservicer and furnish them with any other documents as the Servicer or such Subservicer shall reasonably request in writing to enable the Servicer and
such Subservicer to carry out their respective servicing and administrative duties hereunder. 
 The Servicer shall give prompt written
notice to the Trustee of any action, of which the Servicer has actual knowledge, to (i) assert a claim against the Trust or (ii) assert jurisdiction over the Trust. 
 Section 3.02 Collection of Mortgage Payments. The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms of the
Mortgage Loans and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any insurance policy relating to a Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property, follow collection procedures for all Mortgage
Loans at least as rigorous as those applied to similar mortgage loans held in its own portfolio. Consistent with the foregoing, and unless otherwise provided in Article XII, the Servicer may in its discretion (a) waive or permit to be waived
any late payment charge, prepayment charge, assumption fee or any penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan or any other fee or charge that the Servicer would be entitled to retain as servicing compensation and
(b) arrange with a Mortgagor a schedule for payment of Delinquent sums provided that, if such arrangement is for a period of more than 90 days, the Servicer reasonably believes that without such arrangement, the Mortgagor would default on the
Mortgage Loan. In addition, in the event the Servicer shall consent to the deferment of the due date for any installment due on a Mortgage Loan, such Mortgage Loan shall be considered Delinquent to the same extent as if such installment had not been
deferred. 
  

 26 

 Section 3.03 Subservicing Agreements. The Servicer may enter into Subservicing Agreements for the
servicing and administration of Mortgage Loans with any institution which (x) is authorized under the laws of each state necessary to enable it to perform its obligations under such Subservicing Agreement and (y) has experience servicing
mortgage loans that are similar to the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall give written notice to the Trustee and the Rating Agencies of the appointment of any Subservicer (and shall receive the written confirmation of the Rating Agencies that such
appointment shall not result in a withdrawal or downgrading by any Rating Agency of the then current rating of the Certificates). For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on Mortgage Loans when a
Subservicer has received such payments. Each Subservicer shall be expressly required to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement, and each Subservicing Agreement shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this
Agreement and shall provide that the Trustee (if acting as successor Servicer) or any other successor Servicer shall have the right to terminate such agreement without payment of any penalty if the original Servicer is terminated or resigns. The
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee copies of all Subservicing Agreements and any amendments or modifications thereof promptly upon the execution thereof. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Servicer engages any affiliate or third party vendor pursuant to Section 6.06 or this Section 3.03, including any Subservicer, in connection with the
performance of any of its duties under this Agreement, the Servicer shall immediately notify the Depositor in writing of such engagement. To the extent the Depositor notifies the Servicer and the Trustee that it has determined that any such
affiliate, third party vendor or Subservicer is a Servicing Function Participant, the Servicer shall cause such Servicing Function Participant to prepare a separate assessment and attestation report, as contemplated by Section 3.19 of this
Agreement and deliver such report to the Trustee as set forth in Section 3.22 of this Agreement. In addition, to the extent the Depositor notifies the Servicer and the Trustee that it has determined that any such Servicing Function Participant
would be a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB and meets the criteria in Item 1108(a)(2)(i), (ii) or (iii) of Regulation AB (an “Additional Servicer”), the Servicer shall cause such
Additional Servicer to prepare a separate compliance statement as contemplated by Section 3.14 of this Agreement and deliver such statement to the Trustee as set forth in Section 4.09 of this Agreement. 
 In addition, if the Depositor determines any such Servicing Function Participant would be a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of
Regulation AB, the Servicer shall cause such Servicing Function Participant to provide the Depositor and the Trustee the information required by Section 1108(b) and 1108(c) of Regulation AB within two Business Days following such engagement. To
the extent the Servicer terminates any such Servicing Function Participant that the Depositor has determined is a “servicer” within the meaning of Item 1101 of Regulation AB, the Servicer shall provide the Depositor and the Trustee
the information required to enable the Trustee to accurately and timely report such event under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K (if the Trust’s Exchange Act reporting requirements have not been suspended pursuant to Section 15(d) of the
Exchange Act as set forth in Section 4.09 of this Agreement). 
 Section 3.04 No Contractual Relationship. Any Subservicing
Agreement and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer shall be between the Subservicer and the Servicer alone, and the Trustee and the Holders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no
claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to any Subservicer except as set forth in Section 3.05. 
 Section 3.05
Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreement. In connection with the assumption of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities and of the authority, power and rights of the Servicer hereunder by the Trustee pursuant to
Section 7.01, the Servicer’s rights and obligations under any Subservicing Agreement shall be assumed simultaneously by the Trustee without act or deed on part of the Trustee; provided, however, that the Trustee (if acting as
successor Servicer) or any other successor Servicer may terminate the Subservicer as provided in Section 3.03. 
  

 27 

 The Servicer shall at its expense, upon the reasonable request of the Trustee, deliver to the assuming
party documents and records relating to each Subservicing Agreement and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and otherwise use its best reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Subservicing Agreements to
the assuming party. 
 Section 3.06 Collection Account; Certificate Account. (a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain at one or
more Depositories the Collection Account to be held as a trust account. Each Collection Account shall be established in the name of the Trustee, as trustee for the Holders of the Series of Certificates specified in Article XII. If the institution at
any time holding the Collection Account ceases to be eligible as a Depository, then the Servicer shall immediately name a successor institution meeting the requirements for a Depository. If the Servicer fails to name such a successor institution,
then the Collection Account shall thenceforth be held as a trust account with a qualifying Depository selected by the Trustee. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee if there is a change in the name, account number or institution holding the
Collection Account. 
 The Depositor shall cause to be established with the Trustee on the Issue Date, and the Trustee shall maintain, the
Certificate Account, to be held by the Trustee as trustee for the Holders of the specific Series of Certificates identified in Article XII. 
 (b) The Servicer may deposit in the Collection Account the appropriate payments, collections and funds in respect of one or more series of certificates issued under a registration statement covering the Certificates or similar certificates;
provided that the senior class of certificates of each such other series and the senior Class of Certificates are rated either “AAA” or in the category “AA” or its equivalent by each Rating Agency, and provided
further that separate accounting for each series is maintained. 
 Funds and other property in the Certificate Account shall not be
commingled with any other moneys or property of the Trustee. However, the Trustee may hold any funds or other property received or held by it as part of the Certificate Account in collective accounts maintained by it in the normal course of its
business and containing funds or property held by it for other persons; provided that such accounts are under the sole control of the Trustee and the Trustee maintains adequate records indicating the ownership of all such funds or property
and the portions thereof held for credit to the Certificate Account. 
 (c) The Servicer shall deposit to the Collection Account all Interest
Proceeds and Principal Proceeds for a Collection Period, as follows: 
 (1) within two Business Days of collection, all amounts representing
full or partial Monthly Payments and Principal Prepayments; 
 (2) not later than the Business Day preceding the related Deposit Date, all
amounts representing Net Liquidation Proceeds, Loan Repurchase Prices and Substitution Adjustment Amounts; 
 (3) not later than the related
Deposit Date, all amounts representing Delinquency Advances, Compensating Interest, income from REO Properties and any net investment losses on funds held in the Collection Account as required by Section 4.03(b); 
 (4) within two Business Days of collection, any other amounts, not enumerated above in this Section 3.06(c), representing recoveries of amounts
previously recognized as Realized Losses; and 
 (5) any other amounts specified in Article XII as being required deposits to the Collection
Account; 
 minus amounts deposited in the Collection Account representing payments of principal and/or interest by a Mortgagor which are
subsequently returned as unpaid or “NSF”. The aggregate of the amounts so deposited in respect of a particular Collection Period pursuant to this Section 3.06(c) is the “Monthly Deposit Amount”. 
 The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Account shall be exclusive. Amounts required to be deposited into the Escrow Account and (unless
otherwise provided in Article XII) amounts 

  

 28 

 
in the nature of prepayment charges, late payment charges, assumption fees, excess interest paid by Mortgagors and other fees and proceeds of reimbursements
of Property Protection Expenses received with respect to Mortgage Loans need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account. 
 (d) The Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the Collection Account, only for the following purposes: 
 (A) to pay
itself the Servicing Fee; 
 (B) to withdraw net investment earnings on amounts on deposit in the Collection Account; 
 (C) to effect reimbursement for Liquidation Expenses and Servicing Advances theretofore incurred in respect of any Mortgage Loan in an amount not to
exceed the amount of Liquidation Proceeds deposited in respect of such Mortgage Loan, to withdraw any Foreclosure Profits and to pay itself the amounts due under Section 3.11(a) relating to deficiency actions; 
 (D) to effect reimbursement for Delinquency Advances, the right to reimbursement pursuant to this clause (D) being limited to amounts received on
particular Mortgage Loans (including, for this purpose, Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds) that represent late recoveries of payments of principal and/or interest respecting which any such advance was made; 
 (E) to effect reimbursement for any Delinquency Advances and Servicing Advances that the Servicer has determined to have become Nonrecoverable Advances;

 (F) to effect reimbursement for advances made on any Mortgage Loan in payment of taxes, assessments or insurance premiums (except premiums
on any blanket policy referred to in Section 3.09) in any amount not theretofore reimbursed out of the Escrow Account; 
 (G) to receive
reimbursements permitted under the last sentence of Section 6.03; 
 (H) to withdraw amounts that have been deposited to the Collection
Account in error; and 
 (I) to clear and terminate the Collection Account following the termination of the Trust pursuant to Article IX.

 The Servicer shall keep and maintain (or cause to be kept and maintained) separate accounting records, on a Pool-by-Pool and a Mortgage
Loan-by-Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of accounting for withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to clauses (C) and (F) of this Section; provided, however, that such records need not be retained by the Servicer
for a period longer than its five most recent fiscal years. 
 (e) The Servicer shall (x) remit for deposit in the Certificate Account
by wire transfer, or otherwise make funds available in immediately available funds, the Monthly Deposit Amount for a Collection Period not later than the related Deposit Date, and (y) on each Determination Date, deliver to the Paying Agent a
monthly servicing report, containing (without limitation) the following information for each Pool and on a combined basis: principal and interest collected in respect of the Mortgage Loans, scheduled principal and interest that was due on the
Mortgage Loans, relevant information with respect to any Liquidated Loans, summary and detailed delinquency reports, Liquidation Proceeds and other similar information concerning the servicing of the Mortgage Loans, including the information set
forth in Section 4.07(b). In addition, the Servicer shall inform the Trustee on each Determination Date of the amounts of any Loan Repurchase Prices and Substitution Adjustment Amounts for such Collection Period. 
 Section 3.07 Delinquency Advances; Servicing Advances. (a) On each Determination Date, the Servicer shall elect whether to remit for deposit to
the Collection Account out of its own funds any Delinquent payment of interest and/or principal on each Delinquent Mortgage Loan that is not an REO Mortgage Loan, which payment was not received on or 

  

 29 

 
prior to such Determination Date. The election of the Servicer to make any Delinquency Advance will be based on its reasonable business judgment in
accordance with the servicing standards set out herein that the amount of such Advance will ultimately be recoverable in respect of the related Mortgage Loan, upon liquidation, from insurance or otherwise; the Servicer shall not be obligated to make
any Delinquency Advance. 
 The Servicer may reimburse itself on any day for any Delinquency Advance from collections on any Mortgage Loans
that are not required to be remitted to the Certificate Account during the month in which such reimbursement is effected. This right of reimbursement is in addition to that provided in Section 3.06(d)(D). 
 If the Servicer determines that Delinquency Advances previously made on a Mortgage Loan have become Nonrecoverable Advances, the Servicer may reimburse
itself for the amount of such Nonrecoverable Advances as provided in the first sentence of the preceding paragraph. The Servicer shall give written notice (in the form of an Officer’s Certificate) of its determination of nonrecoverability and
the factual basis therefor to the Trustee. This right of reimbursement is in addition to that provided in Section 3.06(d)(D) and to the Servicer’s right to reimbursement from related Liquidation Proceeds. 
 (b) The Servicer will pay all “out-of-pocket” costs and expenses incurred in the performance of its servicing obligations, including, but not
limited to, (i) Property Protection Expenses, (ii) the cost of any enforcement or judicial proceedings, including foreclosures, (iii) the cost of the management and liquidation of REO Property, (iv) advances required by
Section 3.11(a), but only to the extent that such amounts are determined by the Servicer in its reasonable business judgment to be recoverable and (v) expenses incurred and funds advanced pursuant to Section 3.18. The Servicer may
recover a Servicing Advance (x) from the Mortgagor to the extent permitted by the Mortgage Loan or, if not theretofore recovered from such Mortgagor, from Liquidation Proceeds realized upon the liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan and
(y) as provided in Section 3.06(d). The Servicer shall be entitled to recover Servicing Advances from Liquidation Proceeds prior to the deposit of the Liquidation Proceeds hereunder. 
 Section 3.08 Compensating Interest. If a Principal Prepayment of a Mortgage Loan occurs during any Collection Period, an amount equal to any
Prepayment Interest Shortfall for such Mortgage Loan, up to an aggregate amount not in excess of the Compensating Cap for the related Collection Period (“Compensating Interest”) shall be deposited by the Servicer to the Collection Account.

 Section 3.09 Maintenance of Insurance. (a) To the extent the Servicer is permitted to do so under a Mortgage Loan (but only to the
extent consistent with the Servicer’s servicing of its own loan portfolio), the Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan a hazard insurance policy that provides for fire and extended coverage, and which provides for a
recovery of insurance proceeds relating to such Mortgage Loan, in an amount not less than the least of (i) the Unpaid Loan Balance (plus the related senior lien loan, if any), (ii) the minimum amount required to compensate for damage or
loss on a replacement cost basis and (iii) the full insurable value of the premises. The Servicer shall maintain such insurance policies in the name of the Servicer for the benefit of the Trustee. The policies shall require the insurer to
provide the mortgagee with 30 days’ notice prior to any cancellation or as otherwise required by law. The Servicer may also (but is not obligated to) maintain a blanket hazard insurance policy or policies if the insurer or insurers of such
policies are acceptable to each Rating Agency, in which case the Servicer shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations under this Section 3.09(a). 
 If the Mortgage Loan at the time of origination (or if required by federal law, at any time thereafter) relates to a Mortgaged Property in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management
Agency as having special flood hazards, then to the extent the Servicer is permitted to do so under the Mortgage Loan (but only to the extent consistent with the Servicer’s servicing of its own loan portfolio), the Servicer will cause to be
maintained thereon a flood insurance policy in a form meeting the requirements of the then current guidelines of the Federal Insurance 

  

 30 

 
Administration in an amount representing coverage, and which provides for a recovery of insurance proceeds relating to such Mortgage Loan, of not less than
the least of (i) the Unpaid Loan Balance of the Mortgage Loan (plus the related senior lien loan, if any), (ii) the minimum amount required to compensate for damage or loss on a replacement cost basis and (iii) the maximum amount of
insurance that is available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973. The Servicer shall indemnify the Trust for any loss to the Trust resulting from the Servicer’s failure to advance premiums for such insurance required by this Section.

 The Servicer shall have no obligation to maintain or cause to be maintained any earthquake or additional insurance on a Mortgage Loan or
Mortgaged Property unless the related Mortgagor is required under applicable law to maintain such insurance. 
 Section 3.10 Due-on-Sale
Clauses; Assumption and Substitution. When a Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance or prospective 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 need not exercise any such right if (a) the
Person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been or is to be conveyed satisfies the terms and conditions in the Mortgage Note and Mortgage and the consent of the mortgagee thereunder is not required or (b) the “due-on-sale” clause is,
in the reasonable belief of the Servicer, not enforceable under applicable law. An Opinion of Counsel, provided at the expense of the Servicer, to the foregoing effect shall conclusively establish the reasonableness of such belief. In such event,
the Servicer shall enter into an assumption and modification agreement with the transferee to whom such property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such transferee becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by
applicable law or the Mortgage, the original 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 transferee, pursuant to
which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such transferee is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such assumption or substitution agreement has been
completed by forwarding to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, the original copy of such assumption or substitution agreement (indicating the Mortgage File to which it relates) which copy shall be added 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 any required recording of any assumption or substitution
agreement. In connection with any assumption or substitution agreement, no material term of the Mortgage Loan (including, without limitation, the Monthly Payment, the stated maturity, the Loan Balance or the Mortgage Note Rate) shall be changed nor
shall any required monthly payments of principal or interest be deferred or forgiven. Any fee collected 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, or any substitution of liability agreement or any other transfer of a Mortgaged Property without assumption
thereof, by operation of law or by reason of any assumption or transfer (x) which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, or (y) which, if prevented, would adversely affect the coverage under any mortgage pool insurance
policy, hazard insurance policy or any Primary Mortgage Insurance Certificate, for any reason whatsoever. 
 Section 3.11 Realization Upon
Defaulted Mortgage Loans; Workouts. (a) The Servicer may foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership in the name of, or on behalf of, the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund of Mortgaged Properties relating to defaulted Mortgage
Loans as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of Delinquent payments. The decision of the Servicer whether to foreclose on a defaulted Mortgage Loan shall be 

  

 31 

 
subject to its determination that the proceeds of foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of bringing such a proceeding; such determination to be
based upon a recent appraisal, brokers price opinion or other evidence of the property’s current fair market value and the Servicer’s recent experience in realizing on similar properties similarly located. In connection with such
foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it hereunder, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise or use, as prudent mortgage lenders would exercise or use under the
circumstances in the conduct of their own affairs and consistent with applicable law and with its normal and customary servicing standards, including, but not limited to, advancing funds for the payment of taxes, amounts due with respect to Senior
Liens, and insurance premiums. In the event a deficiency action is available against the Mortgagor or any other person, the Servicer may proceed for the deficiency. The Servicer may retain twenty-five percent (25%) of the net proceeds received
pursuant to a deficiency action as compensation for entering into such action. 
 The Servicer shall sell any REO Property prior to the close
of the third calendar year beginning after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund, at such price as the Servicer in good faith deems necessary to comply with this covenant unless (i) the Servicer obtains for the Trustee an Opinion of
Counsel (the expense of which opinion shall be a Servicing Advance) experienced in federal income tax matters and acceptable to the Trustee, addressed to the Trustee and the Servicer, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO
Property for any greater period will not result in the imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of the Trust Fund or of any Constituent REMIC as defined in Code Section 860F or cause any Constituent REMIC to fail to qualify as
a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding or (ii) the Servicer shall have applied for an extension of time in the manner contemplated by Code Section 856(e)(3), in which case such three-year period shall be extended by the
applicable period. The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure
property” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(8) or result in the receipt by any Constituent REMIC of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(2)(B) or any “net income
from foreclosure property” which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions. In its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Servicer shall, either itself or through an agent, 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, rent the same or any part thereof as the Servicer deems appropriate for the period prior to the sale of such REO
Property. 
 The Servicer shall take into account the existence of any hazardous substances, hazardous wastes or solid wastes, as such terms
are defined in the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, the Resource Conservation and Recovery Act of 1976, or other federal, state or local environmental legislation, on a Mortgaged Property in determining whether
to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of such Mortgaged Property. The Servicer shall be under no obligation to foreclose upon or otherwise convert the ownership of any Mortgaged Property which it believes may be
contaminated with or affected by solid wastes, hazardous wastes, hazardous substances or other pollutants. The Servicer shall not be liable to the Holders if, based on its belief that no such contamination or effect exists, the Servicer forecloses
on a Mortgaged Property and takes title to such Mortgaged Property, and thereafter such Mortgaged Property is determined to be so contaminated or affected. 
 In any case in which property subject to a Mortgage shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration of such property
unless it shall determine in its discretion (a) that such restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the net proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself for such expenses and (b) that such expenses
will be recoverable by it through either Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds (with respect to each of which it shall have priority for 

  

 32 

 
purposes of withdrawals from the Collection Account, as contemplated in Section 3.06(d)). 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, as contemplated in Section 3.06(d). The Servicer shall not, however, be entitled to recover legal expenses
incurred in connection with liquidation proceedings where the Mortgagor pays all Delinquent payments and expenses and such proceedings are terminated prior to liquidation, other than sums received from the Mortgagor for such expenses. 
 In the event the Servicer does not elect to foreclose on a Mortgaged Property, the Servicer may, in the exercise of its judgment, elect to accept a
payment or payments, in connection with the sale by the Mortgagor of such Mortgaged Property or the retention by the Mortgagor of such Mortgaged Property, in aggregate amount less than the outstanding balance of the related Mortgage Loan and accrued
interest thereon. 
 The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to
enable the Servicer to carry out its efforts in realizing upon defaulted Mortgage Loans hereunder. 
 In addition to the foregoing
provisions, the Servicer may enter into a special servicing agreement covering any one or more Mortgage Loans in default. Such special servicing agreement shall be subject to each Rating Agency’s written acknowledgement that the ratings of the
Certificates in effect immediately prior to the entering into of such agreement would not be qualified, downgraded or withdrawn and the Certificates would not be placed on credit review status (except for possible upgrading) as a result of such an
agreement. 
 (b) The Servicer shall determine for each defaulted Mortgage Loan at what time it has recovered, whether through trustee’s
sale, foreclosure sale or otherwise, all amounts it expects to recover from or on account of such defaulted Mortgage Loan, whereupon such Mortgage Loan shall become a “Liquidated Loan”. 
 (c) The Servicer shall not agree to any modification, waiver, variance or amendment of any provision of any Mortgage Loan unless, in the Servicer’s
good faith judgment, such modification, waiver, variance or amendment would mitigate the loss that might otherwise be experienced on such Mortgage Loan and only in the event of a default on such Mortgage Loan or in the event that a default on such
Mortgage Loan is imminent; provided, however, that no such modification, waiver, variance or amendment shall extend the maturity date of such Mortgage Loan beyond the Collection Period relating to the latest Last Scheduled Distribution
Date of any Class of Outstanding Certificates. The Servicer shall be permitted to modify, waive, vary or amend any provision of a Mortgage Loan if required by statute or a court of competent jurisdiction to do so. 
 (d) The Servicer shall provide written notice to the Trustee prior to the execution of any modification, waiver or amendment of any material provision of
any Mortgage Loan and shall deliver to the Custodian, for deposit in the related Mortgage File, an original counterpart of such modification, waiver or amendment, promptly following the execution thereof. 
 Section 3.12 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Files. (a) Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan (including any liquidation of such Mortgage
Loan through foreclosure or otherwise), 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 shall deliver to the Custodian and the Trustee a “Request for
Release of Documents” (substantially in the form of Fannie Mae Form 2009). Upon receipt of such Request for Release, the Custodian, acting for the Trustee, shall promptly release the related Mortgage File, in trust, to the Servicer or its
designee. In these circumstances, the Servicer is authorized to give, as attorney-in-fact for the Trustee and the mortgagee under the Mortgage, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of Mortgage without recourse) regarding the related
Mortgaged Property, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt of payment in full. No expense incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment
shall be chargeable to the Collection Account or to the Trustee. 
  

 33 

 
In lieu of executing any such satisfaction or assignment, the Servicer may prepare and submit to the Trustee a satisfaction (or assignment without recourse,
if requested by the Person or Persons entitled thereto) in form for execution by the Trustee with all requisite information completed by the Servicer; in such event, the Trustee shall execute and acknowledge such satisfaction or assignment, as the
case may be, and deliver the same with the related Mortgage File, as aforesaid. 
 (b) The Servicer shall have the right to accept
applications by Mortgagors for consent to (i) partial releases of Mortgaged Properties, (ii) easements or alterations and (iii) removal, demolition or division of properties subject to Mortgages. No application shall be approved by
the Servicer unless: (w) the effect of such application would not cause any Constituent REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC, and would not result in the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” of the Trust Fund or any
Constituent REMIC, (x) the provisions of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage have been complied with; (y) the debt-to-income ratio of the Mortgagor after any release does not exceed the debt-to-income ratio of such Mortgagor on the
Cut-Off Date and any increase in the Loan-to-Value Ratio shall not exceed 5%; and (z) the lien priority of the related Mortgage is not adversely affected. Upon receipt by the Trustee of an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer setting
forth the action proposed to be taken for a particular Mortgage Loan and certifying that the criteria set forth in the preceding sentence have been satisfied, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer the consent or partial release
prepared by the Servicer. 
 Section 3.13 Servicing Compensation. As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be
entitled to retain the related Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan. Additional servicing compensation in the form of (i) to the extent permitted by Section 3.19, Prepayment Charges, and (ii) release fees, bad check
charges, assumption fees, late payment charges, or any other servicing-related fees, Net Liquidation Proceeds not required to be deposited in the Collection Account and similar items may, to the extent collected from Mortgagors, be retained by the
Servicer, unless a successor Servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 7.01, in which case the provisions of Section 7.01(g) shall apply. 
 The right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. 
 Section 3.14 Annual Statement of Compliance. The Trustee and the Servicer shall deliver, and the Servicer shall cause each Subservicer engaged by
it to deliver, to the Depositor, the Trustee and each Rating Agency on or before March 1 of each year or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day, commencing in March 20[**], a certificate in the form required by
Item 1123 of Regulation AB, to the effect that (i) an authorized officer of the Trustee, the Servicer or the Additional Servicer, as the case may be, has reviewed (or a review has been made under his or her supervision of) such
party’s activities under this Agreement, or such other applicable Subservicing Agreement in the case of an Additional Servicer, during the prior calendar year or portion thereof and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based
on such review, such party has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement, or such other applicable Subservicing Agreement in the case of an Additional Servicer, in all material respects throughout the prior calendar year or portion
thereof or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status thereof. Promptly after receipt of each such certificate, the Depositor
shall review such certificate and, if applicable, consult with the Servicer and the Trustee as to the nature of any failure to fulfill any obligation under the Agreement, or such other applicable Subservicing Agreement in the case of an Additional
Servicer, in any material respect. 
 Section 3.15 Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports. (a) Each of the Trustee and the
Servicer, at its own expense, shall deliver to the Depositor (and in the case of the Servicer, to the Trustee) on or before March 1 of each year, or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day, a report (an “Assessment of
Compliance”) reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor regarding the Servicer’s and Trustee’s assessment of compliance with applicable servicing 

  

 34 

 
criteria during the preceding calendar year as required by Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB promulgated under
the Act. 
 (b) On or before March 1 of each year, or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business, each of the Servicer and the
Trustee, at its own expense, shall furnish to the Depositor (and in the case of the Servicer, to the Trustee) a report (an “Attestation Report”) of a registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the Assessment of
Compliance made by the Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, as required by Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122(b) of Regulation AB promulgated under the Act, which Attestation Report must be made in accordance with
standards for attestation reports issued or adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board. 
 (c) Each of the Servicer and the
Trustee shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it, at its own expense, to deliver to the Depositor and the Trustee an assessment of compliance and accountants’ attestation. 
 (d) No later than 30 days following the end of each fiscal year for the Trust for which a Form 10-K is required to be filed, (i) the Servicer shall
forward to the Trustee and Depositor the name of each Servicing Function Participant engaged by it and what servicing criteria will be addressed in the report on assessment of compliance prepared by such Servicing Function Participant and
(ii) the Trustee shall forward to the Depositor and the Servicer the name of each Servicing Function Participant engaged by it and what servicing criteria will be addressed in the report on assessment of compliance prepared by such Servicing
Function Participant, in each case to the extent of any change from the prior year’s notice, if any. 
 Section 3.16 Access to Loan
Documentation and Information. The Servicer will provide Holders that are federally insured savings and loan associations with certain reports, and will provide access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans included in the
Trust Fund, sufficient to permit such associations to comply with applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or the FDIC. The Servicer shall provide to the Trustee access to the information and documentation regarding the Mortgage
Loans, such access being afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it. 
 Section 3.17 Inspections; Errors and Omissions Insurance. (a) At any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable notice, the Trustee or any Holder of a Class R Certificate may inspect the
Servicer’s servicing operations and discuss the servicing operations of the Servicer during the Servicer’s normal business hours with any of its officers. The costs and expenses incurred by such a Holder (but not the Trustee) in connection
with any such examinations or discussions shall be for the account of the Holder, and any such costs or expenses incurred by the Trustee shall be reimbursable in accordance with Section 8.05. 
 (b) The Servicer (including the Trustee if it shall become the Servicer hereunder) agrees to maintain errors and omissions coverage and a fidelity bond,
each at least to the extent required by Section 305 of Part I of the Fannie Mae Guide or any successor provision thereof. If the fidelity bond or the errors and omissions coverage ceases to be in effect, the Servicer shall promptly give notice
thereof to the Trustee and the Holders. 
 Section 3.18 Additional Servicing Responsibilities for Second Mortgage Loans. The Servicer
must notify any superior lienholder in writing of the existence of a Second Mortgage Loan and request notification of any action (as described below) to be taken against the Mortgagor or the Mortgaged Property by the superior lienholder. 

If the Servicer is notified that any superior lienholder has accelerated or intends to accelerate the obligations under a Senior Lien, or has declared
or intends to declare a default under the mortgage or the promissory note secured thereby, or has filed or intends to file an election to have the Mortgaged Property sold or foreclosed, the Servicer shall take, on behalf of the Trust Fund, such
actions are necessary to protect the interests of the Holders, and/or to preserve the security of the related Second Mortgage Loan, 

  

 35 

 
subject to the REMIC Provisions. The Servicer shall advance the necessary funds to cure the default or reinstate the Senior Lien, if such advance is in the
best interests of the Holders; provided, however, that no such advance need be made if, in the Servicer’s reasonable business judgment, such advance would be nonrecoverable in whole or in part. The Servicer shall thereafter take
such action as is necessary to recover the amount so advanced. 
 Section 3.19 Prepayment Charges. If this Section 3.19 is stated
to be applicable in Article XII, then the Servicer will not waive all or any part of any Prepayment Charge unless, in the Servicer’s reasonable judgment, such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of
such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan and giving such waiver is standard and customary in the industry under similar circumstances in connection with mortgage loan servicing. Subject to the foregoing, the Servicer will not waive all
or any part of a Prepayment Charge in connection with the refinancing of a Mortgage Loan unless such refinancing is related to a default or a reasonably imminent default. 
 If the Servicer shall waive all or any part of a Prepayment Charge in violation of the standard set forth in the preceding paragraph, then the Servicer shall, on the second Business Day preceding the next Deposit
Date, deposit out of its own funds the amount so waived into the Collection Account. 
 Section 3.20 Escrow Account. To the extent
permitted by the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer may (but is not obligated to) establish and maintain or cause to be established and maintained with Depositories one or more Escrow Accounts and shall deposit therein all collections of taxes,
assessments, primary mortgage or hazard insurance premiums or comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Withdrawals from an Escrow Account may be made only to effect payment of taxes, assessments, primary mortgage or hazard insurance
premiums or comparable items, to reimburse the Servicer out of related collections for any payments made regarding taxes and assessments, premiums on Primary Mortgage Insurance Certificates and premiums on standard hazard insurance policies, to
refund to any Mortgagors any sums determined to be overages, to pay interest owed to Mortgagors on such Account to the extent required by law or to clear and terminate such Accounts at the termination of this Agreement. Escrow Accounts shall not be
part of the Trust Fund. 
 Section 3.21 Refinancings of Mortgage Loans. In addition to waivers and arrangements permitted by
Section 3.11, the Servicer reserves the right to offer refinancings of any Mortgage Loan, if such refinancing arises out of a request by the related Mortgagor for a refinancing or a modification, or for other relief from the provisions of the
related Mortgage Loan. For the purposes of this Section, a “refinancing” will include any process with a Mortgagor that results in the refinanced Mortgage Loan being identified and serviced as a “new mortgage loan” in the books,
records and servicing files of the Servicer. 
 On the Deposit Date for the Collection Period in which occurred the effective date of the
refinancing of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section, the Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, into the Collection Account an amount equal to the prepayment in full of such Mortgage Loan (net of all Servicing Advances and
Delinquency Advances relating to such Mortgage Loan, which shall be deemed reimbursed to the Servicer) and, upon receipt by the Trustee and Paying Agent of written notification of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the related Mortgage File
shall be released, and the Custodian and the Trustee shall comply with the provisions of Section 3.12. 
 Section 3.22 Right to
Repurchase Mortgage Loans. CRMSI shall have the right, at any time or from time to time, at its own expense, to repurchase Mortgage Loans from the Trust Fund, in the aggregate during the life of the Trust Fund, representing not more than two
percent (2%) of the Aggregate Initial Pool Balance, at a price equal to the Loan Repurchase Price. To exercise this right, CRMSI shall deliver written notice to the Trustee of its intention so to repurchase, which notice shall be delivered not
later than 5 Business Days prior to the Deposit Date on which the Loan Repurchase Price is to be deposited with the Trustee and which notice 

  

 36 

 
shall specify with particularity the Mortgage Loan or Loans to be repurchased. Upon deposit of the Loan Repurchase Price, the Trustee will reconvey the
repurchased Mortgage Loan or Loans to CRMSI, in the manner contemplated by Section 3.12. No such repurchase shall be permitted unless an Opinion of Counsel is provided by CRMSI to the Trustee that such repurchase shall not result in the
imposition of taxes on “prohibited transactions” of the Trust Fund or of any Constituent REMIC as defined in Code Section 860F or cause any Constituent REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are
outstanding. 
 ARTICLE IV

 Section 4.01 Collection of Money. The Trustee shall demand payment or delivery of all money and
other property payable to or receivable by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement, including all payments due on the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the respective terms and conditions of such Mortgage Loans and required to be paid over to the
Trustee by the Servicer or by any Subservicer. The Trustee shall hold all such money and property received by it, other than pursuant to or as contemplated by Section 4.10, as part of the Trust Fund and shall apply it as provided in this
Agreement. 
 Section 4.02 Accounts. The Depositor shall cause to be established by the Issue Date, and the Trustee shall maintain,
the Certificate Account to be held by the Trustee as such for the benefit of the Holders. The Trustee shall deposit in the Certificate Account, upon receipt, all amounts paid to it pursuant to Section 3.06(e). 
 Section 4.03 Investment of Accounts. (a) Consistent with any requirements of the Code, all or a portion of any Investment Account shall be
invested and reinvested in the name of the Trust Fund, as directed in writing by the Depositor, in one or more Eligible Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount. The Trustee and a Paying Agent (in each case acting in its commercial
capacity) may be the obligor on any investment which otherwise qualifies as an Eligible Investment. Except as otherwise provided in this Section 4.03, no investment in any Investment Account shall mature later than the Business Day immediately
preceding the next Distribution Date. 
 If the Depositor shall fail to give investment directions to the Trustee then the Trustee shall
invest in money market funds described in Section 4.05(j) to be redeemable without penalty no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the next Distribution Date. 
 If any amounts are needed for disbursement from any Investment Account held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent and sufficient uninvested funds are not
available to make such disbursement, the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall cause to be sold or otherwise converted to cash a sufficient amount of the investments in such Account. No investments will be liquidated prior to maturity unless the
proceeds thereof are needed for disbursement. 
 The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall have no liability for any loss incurred in connection
with any investment or any sale or liquidation thereof, or for any insufficiency in any Investment Account, except for any such loss or insufficiency caused by its own negligence or willful misconduct. 
 (b) (i) If the Collection Account is an Investment Account, then all funds therein shall be held (i) uninvested up to the amount insured by the FDIC
or (ii) invested in Eligible Investments. Any investments of funds in the Collection Account shall mature or be withdrawable at par on or prior to the immediately succeeding Deposit Date. Any investment earnings on funds held in the Collection
Account shall be for the account of the Servicer and may only be withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Servicer immediately following the remittance of the Monthly Deposit Amount. Any investment losses on funds held in the Collection Account
shall be for the account of the Servicer and promptly upon the realization of such loss shall be contributed by the Servicer to the Collection Account. Any references herein to amounts on deposit in the Collection Account shall refer to amounts net
of investment earnings. 
  

 37 

 (ii) If the Certificate Account is an Investment Account, then funds therein shall be
invested and reinvested by the Trustee at the Depositor’s written direction in one or more Eligible Investments bearing interest or sold at discount. No investment of any amount held in the Certificate Account may mature later than the Business
Day immediately preceding the next Distribution Date; provided, however, that investments (including repurchase agreements) on which the Trustee or the Paying Agent, in its commercial capacity, is the obligor, may mature on a
Distribution Date. 
 All income from investment of moneys deposited in the Certificate Account, and all proceeds of disposition of any
assets in the Certificate Account, shall be deposited in the Certificate Account immediately upon receipt, and any loss resulting from such investment shall be charged to the Certificate Account. 
 (c) The Depositor will not direct the Trustee or the Paying Agent to make any investment of any funds or to sell any investment held in an Investment
Account except under the following terms and conditions: 
 (i) each such investment shall be made in the name of the Trustee
(in its capacity as such) or in the name of a Qualified Nominee of the Trustee; and 
 (ii) each such investment shall be a
“cash flow investment” as defined in Code Section 860G(a)(6). 
 (d) Generally, no Eligible Investment shall be disposed of
prior to its maturity; provided, however, if any amounts are needed for disbursement from an Investment Account and sufficient uninvested funds are not available therein to make such disbursement, in the absence of a Depositor Order
for the liquidation of investments held therein in an amount sufficient to provide the required funds, the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall cause to be sold or otherwise converted to cash a sufficient amount of the investments in such Investment
Account; provided, further, however, that prior to any such sale or conversion to cash, the Trustee or the Paying Agent shall have received (i) an Opinion of Counsel that such sale or conversion to cash shall not constitute
a “prohibited transaction” under Code Section 860F(a), or (ii) (a) if such sale or conversion to cash constitutes such a “prohibited transaction”, the consent of the Holders of 100% Percentage Interest of the
Residual Certificates to the prohibited transaction together with each such Holder’s proportionate share of any tax imposed on the Trust Fund attributable to such transaction and (b) an Opinion of Counsel that such transaction will not
disqualify any Constituent REMIC as a REMIC.

its corporate trust website, currently located at https://www.usbank.com/abs. Parties unable to use the website are entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first class mail by calling the Trustee at (617) 603-6407 and indicating such
inability. Such responsibility of the Trustee may also be fulfilled by the posting by a Paying Agent of such information or report on its website. 
 Section 4.08 Other Reports by Trustee. (a) The Trustee (or the Paying Agent on its behalf) shall report to the Depositor the amount on deposit in the Certificate Account and the identity of the investments included therein, as the
Depositor 

  

 41 

 
may from time to time reasonably request. The Trustee or the Paying Agent shall, at the reasonable request of the Depositor, transmit promptly copies of all
accountings of receipts in respect of the Mortgage Loans furnished to it by the Servicer and shall notify the Depositor if any Monthly Deposit Amount has not been received by the Trustee or the Paying Agent when due. 
 The Trustee and the Paying Agent shall report to each Holder regarding any written notices it may from time to time receive which provide a Responsible
Officer with actual knowledge that any of the statements set forth in Section 2.03(a) are inaccurate. 
 Section 4.09 Commission
Filings. (a) The Servicer will prepare and file all reports required to be filed by the Depositor under the Exchange Act, including required periodic reports on Form 10-D and any required current report on Form 8-K, but excluding reports on Form
10-K, which the Depositor will prepare and file. Within 15 days after each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall file with the Commission through the Commissions’ Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System a Form 10-D with a copy of the
reports under Section 4.07 for such Distribution Date as an exhibit thereto. Prior to January 30 of the year following the year of this Agreement, the Servicer shall file a Form 15 Suspension Notification for the Trust Fund, if applicable.
Prior to March 30 in the same year, the Depositor shall file a Form 10-K, in substance conforming to industry standards, for the Trust Fund. At least three Business Days prior to filing any Form 10-D, the Servicer shall deliver a copy thereof
to the Depositor. The Servicer, the Trustee and each Paying Agent agree to promptly furnish to the Depositor, from time to time upon request, such information, reports and financial data within its control relating to this Agreement and the Mortgage
Loans as the Servicer or the Depositor, as applicable, reasonably deems necessary or appropriate to prepare and file all required reports with the Commission. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Trustee and each Paying Agent
shall have no responsibility or liability for the filing of, or failure to file, any such required reports or related certifications with the Commission. 
 (b) After preparing the Form 10-K, the Depositor shall forward electronically a draft copy of the Form 10-K to the Trustee and the Servicer for review. No later than the close of business on the third Business Day
prior to the 10-K Filing Deadline, a senior officer of the Servicer in charge of the servicing function shall sign the Form 10-K and return an electronic or fax copy of such signed Form 10-K, together with a signed copy of the certification (the
“Certification”) attached hereto as Exhibit E and required to be included with each Form 10-K pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended (with an original executed hard copy of each to follow by overnight mail) to the
Depositor. 
 (c) For so long as the Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Trustee shall provide to the
Servicer, on or before March 1 of each year or if such day is not a Business Day, the next Business Day, a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F. In the event the Trustee is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this
Agreement, such Trustee shall provide a certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement. In addition, the Trustee shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and the
Servicer and their officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon any
inaccuracy in (i) the assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria pursuant to Section 3.14 provided by Trustee or any Servicing Function Participant appointed by the Trustee and (ii) the certification provided by the Trustee
pursuant to this Section 4.09(c), any breach of the obligations under Sections 3.14, 3.14 and 4.09(c) of the Trustee or any Servicing Function Participant appointed by the Trustee or the Trustee’s or such Servicing Function
Participant’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor, the Servicer and the Sponsor and their officers,
directors and affiliates, then the Trustee agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Sponsor, any of their officers, directors or affiliates as a result of the losses, claims, damages or
liabilities of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Sponsor, any of their officers, 

  

 42 

 
directors or affiliates in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Sponsor and each of their
officers, directors and affiliates on the one hand and the Trustee on the other in connection with a breach of the Trustee’s obligations under this Section 4.09(c) or the Trustee’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in
connection therewith. 
 (d) The obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (c) of this Section shall only apply with respect
to periods for which the Depositor is obligated to file reports on Form 8-K, 10-D or 10-K with respect to the Trust. At any time after the filing of a Form 15 Suspension Notification, if the number of Certificateholders of record exceeds the number
set forth in Section 15(d) of the Exchange Act or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto which would cause the Trust to again become subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act, the Depositor and the Servicer, as applicable,
shall recommence preparing and filing reports on Form 10-D and 10-K as required pursuant to this Section and the parties hereto will again have the obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (d) of this Section. 
 (e) Each of the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer shall notify each other of any proceedings of the type described in Item 1117 of Regulation
AB, together with a description thereof, within five Business Days of any such party’s knowledge thereof. In addition, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer shall notify each other of any affiliations or relationships that develop
following the Closing Date between the Depositor, the Trustee or the Servicer and any of parties listed in Item 1119 of Regulation AB, together with a description thereof, within five Business Days of any such party’s knowledge thereof.

 Section 4.10 Amounts Not Distributed. Any amount withdrawn for distribution as payment of interest or principal on any Certificate
but which is not distributed because of the non-presentation of such Certificate, because the check for payment is returned undelivered or because the Holder thereof has failed to deliver payment instructions to the Trustee or the Paying Agent,
shall be set aside and held by the Trustee or the Paying Agent in a separate trust account for the benefit of the Holder. Any such amount shall be deemed to have been duly distributed for the purpose of all calculations under this Agreement and will
not be available for application to any other amounts payable under this Agreement. If such amount is an amount representing part of a final distribution pursuant to Section 9.01, the Trustee and the Paying Agent shall comply with the procedure
set forth in the last paragraph of Section 9.01. After two years from the original date on which such amount was due and payable to the Holder, any amount remaining in such separate trust account shall be distributed to the Class R
Certificates, and after such distribution such Holder shall be required to seek payment as an unsecured general creditor of the Class R Certificateholders. 
 Section 4.11 Payment of Trust Expenses. If and only to the extent not otherwise paid under this Agreement, the Trustee shall make demand on the Depositor to pay the Trust Expenses, and the Depositor shall
promptly pay such expenses directly to the Persons to whom such amounts are due. 
 ARTICLE V 
 THE CERTIFICATES 
 Section 5.01 The
Certificates. (a) The Certificates and Residual Certificates shall be substantially in the forms set forth as Exhibits hereto. The Certificates shall be issued in the denominations specified in Article XII and shall be executed by manual or
facsimile signature on behalf of CRMSI by its Chairman, President, a Senior Vice President, Treasurer or one of its Vice Presidents or Assistant Vice Presidents. 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 CRMSI shall bind CRMSI, 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 Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to 

  

 43 

 
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 in the following paragraph executed by the Trustee or, if an Authenticating Agent is appointed pursuant to Section 8.12, executed by the Authenticating Agent, in each case by manual signature, and such certificate 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. The Certificates shall be engraved, printed
or lithographed in such manner as to comply with the requirements of The Depository Trust Company or other Clearing Agency if such Certificates are Book-Entry Certificates. 
 The form of authentication referenced in the preceding paragraph is as follows: 
 “This is one of the Certificates referred to in the within-mentioned Agreement. 
                                       
              , as [Trustee][Authenticating Agent]” 
 Until
such time as Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 5.06, each Certificate designated as a Book-Entry Certificate in Article XII shall be held in book-entry form and shall bear a legend in substantially the following form:

 “Unless this certificate is presented by an authorized representative of [the Clearing Agency] to the Depositor or its agent for
registration of transfer, exchange or payment, and any certificate issued is registered in the name of [Clearing Agency or nominee] or such other name as requested by an authorized representative of [Clearing Agency] and any payment is made to
[Clearing Agency or nominee], any transfer, pledge or other use hereof for value or otherwise by or to any person is wrongful since the registered owner hereof, [Clearing Agency or nominee], has an interest herein.” 
 (b) Upon original issuance, the Book-Entry Certificates shall be issued in the form of one or more typewritten certificates, to be delivered to the
initial Clearing Agency by, or on behalf of, the Depositor. Such Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of the nominee of the initial Clearing Agency, and no Beneficial Owner will receive a definitive
certificate representing such Beneficial Owner’s interest in the Book-Entry Certificates, except as provided in Section 5.06. Unless and until definitive, fully registered certificates (“Definitive Certificates”) have been issued
to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 5.06: 
 (i) the provisions of this Section 5.01(b) shall be in full force
and effect; 
 (ii) the Depositor, the Servicer, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency
for all purposes (including the making of distributions on the Book-Entry Certificates and the taking of actions by the Holders of Book-Entry Certificates) as the authorized representative of the Beneficial Owners; 
 (iii) to the extent that the provisions of this Section 5.01(b) conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions
of this Section 5.01(b) shall control; 
 (iv) the rights of Beneficial Owners shall be exercised only through the
Clearing Agency and shall be limited to those established by law, the rules, regulations and procedures of the Clearing Agency and agreements between such Beneficial Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants, and all
references in this Agreement to actions by Certificateholders shall, with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, refer to actions taken by the Clearing Agency upon instructions from the Clearing Agency Participants, and all references in this
Agreement to distributions, notices, reports and statements to Certificateholders shall, with respect to the Book-Entry Certificates, refer to distributions, notices, reports and statements to the Clearing Agency or its nominee, as registered holder
of the Book-Entry Certificates, as the case may be, for the distribution to Beneficial Owners in accordance with the procedures of the Clearing Agency; and 
  

 44 

 (v) the initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency
Participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal and interest on the Certificates to the Clearing Agency Participants, for distribution by such Clearing Agency Participants to the Beneficial Owners or their nominees. 
 For purposes of any provision of this Agreement requiring or permitting actions with the consent of, or at the direction of, Holders of Book-Entry
Certificates evidencing specified voting interests, such direction or consent shall be given by Beneficial Owners having the requisite percentage interests. 
 Unless and until Definitive Certificates have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 5.06, copies of the reports or statements referred to in Section 4.07 shall be available to Beneficial
Owners upon written request to the Trustee at the Corporate Trust Office or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed, at the website of the Paying Agent. 
 Section 5.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates. The Depositor shall maintain or cause to be maintained in accordance with the provisions of Section 6.05 a Certificate Register in which,
subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Depositor 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 at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor shall execute and the
Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee or transferee, one or more new Certificates in authorized denominations of the same aggregate initial Principal Balance or the same
aggregate Percentage Interest, as the case may be. 
 At the option of the Certificateholder, Certificates may be exchanged for other
Certificates of authorized denominations evidencing the same aggregate initial Principal Balance or the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as the case may be, upon surrender of the Certificates to be exchanged at any such office or agency. Whenever
any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Depositor shall execute and the Trustee or Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every
Certificate presented or surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar duly executed by the Holder
thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. Notwithstanding the foregoing, no transfer or exchange of any Certificate shall be made by the Trustee or Authenticating Agent unless the Certificateholder making the exchange has complied with the
provisions of this Agreement, the respective Certificate and applicable securities laws. 
 No service charge shall be made for any
registration of transfer or exchange of the Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

 All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer and exchange shall be canceled and, subject to any record retention requirements
of the Exchange Act, subsequently destroyed by the Trustee or, at its direction, by the Certificate Registrar. 
 The Depositor will cause
the Certificate Registrar to provide to the Trustee and the Paying Agent, if the Paying Agent is not the Certificate Registrar, not later than the third Business Day next preceding each Distribution Date, the names and addresses of the
Certificateholders as of the Record Date and the aggregate Principal Balance or Percentage Interest held of record by each of them. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, no legal or beneficial interest in all or any portion of a Residual Certificate may be transferred, directly or indirectly, to a “disqualified organization” within the meaning of Code
Section 860E(e)(5), or to an agent of a disqualified organization (including a broker, nominee, or other middleman) (an “Agent”) and any such purported transfer shall be void and of no effect. Further, no legal or beneficial interest
in all or any portion of a Residual Certificate may be registered in the name 

  

 45 

 
of a Plan or a Person investing the assets of a Plan (such Plan or Person an “ERISA Prohibited Holder”) or in the name of a person that is not
(i) a U.S. Person (other a U.S. Person with respect to whom income is attributable to a foreign permanent establishment or fixed base (within the meaning of an applicable income tax treaty) of such person or any other U.S. Person) or
(ii) a non-U.S. Person that holds the Residual Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and has furnished the transferor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee with an effective Internal
Revenue Service Form W-8ECI or (iii) a non-U.S. Person that has delivered to the transferor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee an opinion of a nationally recognized tax counsel to the effect that the transfer of the Residual Certificate
to it is in accordance with the requirements of the Code and the regulations promulgated thereunder and that such transfer of the Residual Certificate will not be disregarded for federal income tax purposes (any such person who is not described in
clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) above being referred to herein as a “Non-permitted Foreign Holder”). The Depositor shall not execute and the Trustee or Authenticating Agent shall not authenticate and deliver, a new Residual
Certificate in connection with any transfer of a Residual Certificate, and the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee shall not accept a surrender for transfer or registration of transfer, or register the transfer of, any Residual
Certificate unless the transferor shall have provided to the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee an affidavit, substantially in the form marked as Appendix 1 hereto, signed by the transferee, to the effect that the transferee is not
such a disqualified organization, an agent for any entity as to which the transferee has not received a substantially similar affidavit, an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a Non-permitted Foreign Holder, accompanied by a written statement signed by the
transferor to the effect that, as of the time of the transfer, the transferor has no actual knowledge that such affidavit is false. Upon notice by the Depositor that any legal or beneficial interest in any portion of a Residual Certificate has been
transferred, directly or indirectly, to a disqualified organization or an Agent in contravention of the foregoing restrictions, the Trustee shall furnish to the Internal Revenue Service and the transferor of such Residual Certificate or to such
Agent, within 60 days of the request therefor by such transferor or such Agent, and the Depositor agrees to provide the Trustee with, the computation of such information necessary to the application of Code Section 860E(e) as may be required by
the Code, including but not limited to the present value of the total anticipated excess inclusions with respect to such Residual Certificate (or portion thereof) for periods after such transfer. At the election of the Depositor, the reasonable cost
of computing and furnishing such information may be charged to the transferor or such Agent; however, the Trustee and the Depositor shall in no event be excused from furnishing such information. Every holder of a Residual Certificate shall be deemed
to have consented to such amendments to the Pooling Agreement as may be required to further effectuate the restrictions on transfer of Residual Certificates to a disqualified organization, an Agent, an ERISA Prohibited Holder or a Non-permitted
Foreign Holder. 
 The affidavit described in the preceding paragraph shall also contain the statement of the transferee that it (i) has
historically paid its debts as they have come due and intends to do so in the future, (ii) understands that it may incur liabilities in excess of cash flows generated by the Residual Certificate, (iii) intends to pay taxes associated with
holding the Residual Certificate as they become due and (iv) will not transfer the Residual Certificate to any person or entity that does not provide a similar affidavit. The transferor’s statement to the Certificate Registrar and the
Trustee accompanying the affidavit shall state that the transferor has no knowledge or reason to know that the statements made by the transferee with respect to clauses (i) and (iii) of the preceding sentence are false. Each Residual
Certificate shall bear a legend referring to the restrictions contained in this paragraph and the preceding paragraph. 
 No transfer of any
Private Certificate may be made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Act and applicable state securities laws, or an exemption from the Act and applicable state securities laws is available. Upon
surrender for registration of transfer of any Private Certificate in reliance on such an exemption, (1) the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall not accept surrender for transfer or registration of transfer of, or register the transfer
of, any Private 

  

 46 

 
Certificate and (2) the Depositor shall not execute, and the Trustee and the Authenticating Agent shall not authenticate and deliver, any new Private
Certificate in connection with the transfer of any Private Certificate, unless the transferee delivers to the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee a letter substantially to the effect set forth in Exhibit E to this Agreement and
(x) if such transferee is not a “Qualified Institutional Buyer” within the meaning of Rule 144A of the Act, and if so requested by the Depositor, in its sole discretion, an opinion of counsel acceptable to the Depositor shall have
been delivered to it, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee to the effect that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption from the Act; or (y) if such transfer is to a non-institutional investor, unless such investor is an
accredited investor (as defined in Regulation D under the Act) and has a net worth (exclusive of primary residence) of at least $1,000,000 as confirmed in writing to the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee. 
 No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate may be made unless any proposed transferee (i) executes a representation letter in substantially the
form of Exhibit F hereto and in substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, the Trustee and the Depositor stating that it is not, and is not acting on behalf of, any employee benefit plan subject to Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of
the Code, or a governmental plan, as defined in Section 3(32) of ERISA, subject to any federal, state or local law (“Similar Law”) which is, to a material extent, similar to the foregoing provisions of ERISA or the Code (collectively,
a “Plan”) or using the assets of any such Plan to effect such purchase or (ii) provides (A) an opinion of counsel in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Servicer and the Depositor that
the purchase or holding of such ERISA Restricted Certificate by or on behalf of such Plan will not result in the assets of the Trust being deemed to be “plan assets” and subject to the prohibited transaction provisions of ERISA and the
Code or Similar Law and will not subject the Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement and (B) such other opinions of counsel, officers’
certificates and agreements as the Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee may require in connection with such transfer. 
 For purposes of clause (i) of the preceding paragraph, such representation shall be deemed to have been made to the Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee by the transferee’s acceptance of an ERISA
Restricted Certificate (or the acceptance by a Beneficial Owner of the beneficial interest in any such Class of ERISA Restricted Certificates) unless the Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee shall have received from the
transferee an alternative representation acceptable in form and substance to them. Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any purported transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate to or on behalf of a Plan without the delivery to the
Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to them as described above shall be void and of no effect; provided, however, that the restriction set forth in this sentence
shall not be applicable if there has been delivered to the Servicer, the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to them to the effect that the purchase or holding of an ERISA Restricted Certificate
will not result in a prohibited transaction under ERISA or the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Servicer, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee to any obligation in addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement. The
Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the Depositor and the Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any ERISA Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 5.02 or for making
any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar in accordance
with the foregoing requirements. Each of the Servicer and the Trustee shall be entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any ERISA Restricted Certificate that was in fact a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of a Plan at the time it
became a Holder or, at such subsequent time as it became a Plan or Person acting on behalf of a Plan, all payments made on such ERISA Restricted Certificate at and after either such time. Any such payments so recovered shall be paid and delivered by
the Trustee or a Paying Agent to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that is not a Plan or Person acting on behalf of a Plan. 
  

 47 

 Section 5.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If (a) any mutilated
Certificate is surrendered to the Certificate Registrar or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (b) there is delivered to the Depositor, the Certificate
Registrar 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 Certificate Registrar or the Trustee that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Depositor shall execute and the Trustee or Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and Initial Principal
Balance, initial notional amount or Percentage Interest. In connection with the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section 5.03, the Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other
governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar) connected therewith. Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this
Section 5.03 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund, as if originally issued on the Issue Date, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time. 
 Section 5.04 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of a Certificate for registration of transfer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Certificate Registrar and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name such Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the
Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary. 
 Section
5.05 Access to List of Certificateholders’ Names and Addresses. If the Trustee is not the Certificate Registrar and at any time requests the Depositor or the Certificate Registrar in writing to provide a list of the names and addresses
of Certificateholders, the Depositor will furnish or (if the Certificate Registrar is not the Depositor) cause the Certificate Registrar to furnish to the Trustee, within five Business Days after receipt of a request, such list as of the most recent
Record Date, in such form as the Trustee may reasonably require. If three or more Certificateholders (i) request such information in writing from the Trustee, (ii) state that such Certificateholders desire to communicate with other
Certificateholders with respect to their rights under this Agreement or under the Certificates and (iii) provide a copy of the communication which such Certificateholders propose to transmit, then the Trustee shall, within five Business Days
after the receipt of such request, afford such Certificateholders access during normal business hours to the most recent list held by the Trustee. If such list is as of a date more than 90 days prior to the date of receipt of such
Certificateholders’ request, the Trustee shall promptly request from the Depositor or the Certificate Registrar a current list and shall afford such Certificateholders access to such list promptly upon its receipt by the Trustee. Every
Certificateholder, by receiving and holding a Certificate, agrees that none of the Depositor, the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee shall 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 5.06 Definitive
Certificates. If (A) the Clearing Agency advises the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar in writing that the Clearing Agency is no longer willing or able properly to discharge its responsibilities as depository with respect to the
Book-Entry Certificates, and (B) the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor, the Certificate Registrar shall notify the Beneficial Owners, through the Clearing Agency, of the occurrence of any such event and of the availability of
Definitive Certificates to Beneficial Owners requesting the same. Upon surrender to the Certificate Registrar by the Clearing Agency of the Certificates held of record by its nominee, accompanied by re-registration instructions and directions to
authenticate new Certificates from the Depositor, the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate Definitive 

  

 48 

 
Certificates for delivery. The Depositor shall arrange for, and will bear all costs of, the printing and issuance of such Definitive Certificates. None of
the Depositor, the Servicer, the Certificate Registrar, the Authenticating Agent or the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions by the Clearing Agency and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on,
such instructions. 
 Section 5.07 Notices to Clearing Agency. Whenever notice or other communication to the Holders of Book-Entry
Certificates is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued to Beneficial Owners pursuant to Section 5.06, the Trustee shall have all such notices and communications specified herein to be
given to Holders of Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency. 
 ARTICLE VI 
 CRMSI AND CFMC 
 Section 6.01 Liability. CRMSI and CFMC shall be liable in
accordance herewith only to the extent of the respective obligations specifically undertaken by them herein. 
 Section 6.02 Merger or
Consolidation, or Assumption of Obligations. Any corporation into which CRMSI may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which CRMSI shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding
to the business of CRMSI, or any corporation, more than 50% of the voting stock of which is, directly or indirectly, owned by Citigroup, which executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of CRMSI hereunder, shall be the successor
of CRMSI hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, that in the event that any such successor corporation executes
such agreement of assumption, CRMSI shall not thereby be released from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder. 
 Any corporation
into which CFMC may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which CFMC shall be a party, or any corporation succeeding to the business of CFMC, or any corporation, more than 50% of the
voting stock of which is, directly or indirectly, owned by Citigroup Inc., which executes an agreement of assumption to perform every obligation of CFMC hereunder, shall be the successor of CFMC hereunder, without the execution or filing of any
paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, that in the event that any such successor corporation executes such agreement of assumption, CFMC shall not thereby be
released from any of its obligations or liabilities hereunder. 
 Section 6.03 Limitation on Liability. None of CRMSI, CFMC or any of
their respective directors, officers, employees and 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 pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in
judgment, provided, however, that none of CRMSI, CFMC or any such person will be protected against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of
duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. CRMSI, CFMC and any director or officer or employee or agent of either of them may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and
submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. CRMSI, CFMC and any of their respective directors, officers, employees or agents shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund against any loss, liability or expense
incurred in connection with any suit in equity, action at law or other proceedings relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in
the performance of duties hereunder or reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder. CFMC shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action 

  

 49 

 
which is not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its respective opinion may involve it in
any expense or liability, provided, however, that CFMC may in its sole discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the
interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund and CFMC shall be entitled to be reimbursed
therefor out of the Collection Account. 
 Section 6.04 CFMC Not to Resign. Subject to the provisions of Sections 6.02 and 6.06, CFMC
shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it without the consent of the Trustee, the Holders of more than 66-2/3% of the Voting Interests of the Certificates then Outstanding and 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of the
Residual Certificates, except upon a determination that the performance of its duties hereunder is no longer permissible under applicable law or are in material conflict by reason of applicable law with any other activities carried on by it, such
other activities being of a type and nature carried on by CFMC at the date hereof. Any such determination permitting the resignation of CFMC shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Trustee. No resignation by CFMC
shall become effective until the Trustee or a successor servicer shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of CFMC in accordance with Section 7.01. 
 Section 6.05 Maintenance of Office or Agency. CRMSI shall maintain or cause to be maintained at its expense an office or offices or agency or agencies where the Certificates may be surrendered for registration
of transfer or exchange and where notices and demands to or upon CRMSI in respect of the Certificates and this Agreement may be served. CRMSI initially appoints the Certificate Registrar designated in Article XII as its office for purposes of
receipt of notices and demands. CRMSI will give prompt written notice to the Trustee and to the Certificateholders of any change in the location of the Certificate Register or any such office or agency. 
 Section 6.06 Delegation of Duties. In addition to arrangements pursuant to Section 3.03, CFMC may at any time without notice or consent
delegate any duties hereunder to any entity, including an entity more than 50% of the stock of which is owned, directly or indirectly, by Citigroup; provided that such entity has been approved as a seller/servicer by Fannie Mae or FHLMC. Such
delegation shall not, however, relieve CFMC of its responsibility with respect to such duties. 
 ARTICLE VII 
 SERVICER DEFAULT; RESIGNATION 
 Section 7.01
Servicing Events of Default. (a) If any one of the following events (“Servicing Events of Default”) shall occur and be continuing: 
 (i) Any failure by the Servicer, if the Servicer is the Paying Agent, to distribute to Certificateholders any payment required under the terms of this Agreement or, if the Servicer is not the Paying Agent, to pay over
or to cause to be paid over to the Paying Agent for such distribution, any payment so required or to remit to the Trustee or the Paying Agent for deposit in the Certificate Account any payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement
(including any payment required to be made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.08) which failure continues unremedied for a period of (A) ten Business Days after the date on which written notice of such failure shall have been given to
the Servicer by or on behalf of the Trustee, or to the Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of the Required Amount of Certificates, if the Servicer falls to distribute or remit the full amount of a required payment as the result of an error in
calculating the amount of such required payment or (B) three Business Days after written notice of such failure shall have been given to the Servicer as provided above if the Servicer falls 

  

 50 

 
to distribute or remit the full amount of a required payment for any reason other than as a result of an error in calculation; or 
 (ii) Failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any of its covenants or agreements set forth
in this Agreement, which failure (A) materially adversely affects the rights of the Certificateholders and (B) continues unremedied for a period of 60 Business Days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same
to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by or on behalf of the Trustee or the Paying Agent, or to the Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of the Required Amount of Certificates; or 
 (iii) The entry of a decree or order by a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment
of a conservator, receiver or liquidator for the Servicer in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such
decree or order unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days; or 
 (iv) The Servicer shall consent to the
appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or relating to substantially all of its property, or the
Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or
voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or 
 (v) The occurrence of any other event specified in Section 14.02 as
a Servicing Event of Default; 
 then the Trustee, acting upon the instructions of the Required Amount of Certificates, may remove the Servicer as such under
this Agreement. The Servicer shall continue to act as servicer under this Agreement for a period commencing on the date on which such Servicing Event of Default occurred and ending on the last day of the calendar quarter in which such Servicing
Event of Default occurred, unless prior to the end of such period a successor Service shall have been appointed pursuant to this Section 7.01 or the Trustee shall have notified the Servicer of the Trustee’s election to assume the
Servicer’s servicing responsibilities and obligations at an earlier date. 
 (b) Each party agrees to use its best efforts to inform the
Trustee of any materially adverse information regarding the Servicer’s servicing activities that comes to the attention of such party from time to time. 
 (c) [Reserved]. 
 (d) No removal or resignation of the Servicer shall become effective until the Trustee or
a successor Servicer shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations in accordance with this Section. 
 (e) Upon
removal or resignation of the Servicer, the Servicer at its own expense also shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to a successor servicer or the Trustee all the books and records (including, without limitation, records kept in electronic
form) that the Servicer has maintained for the Mortgage Loans, including all tax bills, assessment notices, insurance premium notices and all other documents as well as all original documents then in the Servicer’s possession. 
 (f) Any collections then being held by the Servicer prior to its removal or resignation and any collections received by the Servicer thereafter shall be
endorsed by it to the Trustee and remitted directly and immediately to the Trustee or the successor Servicer. 
 (g) Upon removal or
resignation of the Servicer, the Trustee may (A) solicit bids for a successor servicer as described below or (B) assume the servicing responsibilities and obligations hereunder as Servicer. If the Trustee elects to solicit bids for a
successor Servicer, the Trustee agrees to act as Servicer during the solicitation process and shall assume all duties of the Servicer (except as otherwise provided in this Agreement). The Trustee shall, if it is unable to obtain a qualifying bid and
is 

  

 51 

 
prevented by law from acting as Servicer, appoint, or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any housing and home finance institution, bank
or mortgage servicing institution which has been designated as an approved seller-servicer by Fannie Mae or FHLMC for first and second mortgage loans and having equity of not less than $5,000,000, as determined in accordance with generally accepted
accounting principles, as the successor to the Servicer in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. The compensation of any successor Servicer (other than the Trustee as successor
Servicer) so appointed shall be the amount agreed to between the successor Servicer and the Trustee (up to a maximum equal to the Servicing Fee) together with the other servicing compensation provided in Section 3.13; provided, that if the
Trustee becomes the successor Servicer it shall receive as its compensation the same compensation paid to the Servicer immediately prior to the Servicer’s removal or resignation. 
 (h) In the event the Trustee elects to solicit bids as provided above, the Trustee shall solicit, by public announcement, bids from housing and home
finance institutions, banks and mortgage servicing institutions meeting the qualifications set forth above. Such public announcement shall specify that the successor Servicer shall be entitled to servicing compensation in accordance with subsection
(g) above. Within thirty days after any such public announcement, the Trustee shall negotiate and effect the transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder to the qualified party submitting the highest
satisfactory bid as to the price it will pay to obtain servicing. The Trustee shall deduct from any sum received from the successor Servicer in respect of such sale, transfer and assignment all costs and expenses of any public announcement and of
any sale, transfer and assignment of the servicing rights and responsibilities hereunder. After such deductions, the remainder of such sum less any amounts due the Trustee or the Trust from the Servicer shall be paid by the Trustee to the Servicer
at the time of such sale, transfer and assignment to the Servicer’s successor. 
 (i) The Trustee and such successor Servicer shall take
such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession, including the notification to all Mortgagors and each Rating Agency of the transfer of servicing. The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee
and any successor Servicer in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s servicing responsibilities and rights and shall promptly provide the Trustee or such successor Servicer, as applicable, all documents and records reasonably requested by
it to enable it to assume the Servicer’s functions and shall promptly transfer to the Trustee or such successor Servicer, as applicable, all amounts which then have been or should have been deposited in the Collection Account by the Servicer or
which are thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Neither the Trustee nor any other successor Servicer shall be held liable by reason of any failure to make, or any delay in making, any distribution hereunder or any portion thereof
caused by (i) the failure of the Servicer to deliver, or any delay in delivering, cash, documents or records to it, or (ii) restrictions imposed by any regulatory authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer. If the Servicer resigns or
is removed, the Servicer agrees to reimburse the Trust, the Trustee and the Holders for the costs and expenses associated with the transfer of servicing to the successor Servicer. 
 (j) The Trustee or other successor Servicer, upon assuming the duties of Servicer, shall (i) less each Rating Agency has confirmed that recordation
is not required, record all assignments of Mortgage Loans not previously recorded in the name of the Trustee and (ii) make all Delinquency Advances and Compensating Interest payments and deposit them to the Collection Account which the Servicer
has theretofore failed to remit with respect to the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that the Trustee or such successor Servicer shall only be required to make Delinquency Advances (including Delinquency Advances described in this
subsection (j)) if, in its good faith judgment, such Delinquency Advances will ultimately be recoverable from the Mortgage Loans. 
 (k) The
Trustee shall give notice to the Holders, the Depositor and each Rating Agency of the occurrence of any event described in subsection (a) above of which the Trustee has knowledge.

 ARTICLE VIII 
 THE TRUSTEE 
 Section 8.01 Duties of the Trustee. The Trustee, prior to the occurrence of a Servicing
Event of Default and after the curing of all Servicing Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. If a Servicing Event of Default has occurred
(which has not been cured), the Trustee shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the
conduct of his own affairs. 
 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 to the requirements of this Agreement. The Trustee shall not be
responsible for the accuracy or content of any such instrument furnished by the Servicer or the Depositor. If any such instrument is found not to confirm in any material respect to the requirements of this Agreement, the Trustee shall request a
satisfactorily corrected instrument. 
 No provision of this Agreement shall be construed to relieve the Trustee from liability for its own
negligent action, its own negligent failure to act or its own misconduct; provided, however, that: 
 (a) Prior to the
occurrence of a Servicing Event of Default, and after the curing of all Servicing Events of Default which may have occurred, the duties and obligations of the Trustee shall be determined solely by the express provisions of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall not be liable except for the performance of such duties and obligations as are specifically set forth in this Agreement, no implied covenants or obligations shall be read into this Agreement against the Trustee and, in the absence of
bad faith on the part of the Trustee, the Trustee may conclusively rely, as to the truth of the statements and the correctness of the opinions expressed therein, upon any certificates, statements or opinions furnished to the Trustee and conforming
to the requirements of this Agreement; 
 (b) The Trustee shall not be personally 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 the pertinent facts; 
 (c) The
Trustee shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the direction of the Holders of the Required Amount of Certificates relating to the time, method and
place of conducting any proceeding for any remedy available to the Trustee, or exercising any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee, under this Agreement; 
 (d) The Trustee shall not be charged with knowledge of any default (other than a default in payment to the Trustee) or a Servicing Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee obtains actual knowledge
of such failure or the Trustee receives written notice of such failure at its Corporate Trust Office from the Depositor, the Servicer or the Holders of the Required Amount of Certificates; 
 (e) The Trustee shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties
hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it, and nothing in this
Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to,
and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement; and 
 (f)
Except as specifically required by this Agreement, and without limiting the generality of this Section 8.01, the Trustee shall have no duty to see to (A) any recording, filing, or depositing of this 

  

 53 

 
Agreement or any agreement referred to herein or any financing statement or continuation statement, or to see to the maintenance of any thereof or to any
refiling, rerecording or redepositing of any thereof, (B) any insurance, or (C) the payment or discharge of any tax, assessment or other governmental charge or any lien or encumbrance owing with respect to, assessed or levied against, any
part of the Trust Fund other than from funds available in the Certificate Account. 
 Section 8.02 Certain Matters Affecting the
Trustee. Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01: 
 (a) The Trustee may rely and shall be protected in acting or refraining
from acting upon any resolution, Officer’s Certificate, certificate of auditors or any other certificate, statement, instruments, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, appraisal, bond or other paper or document believed by it to be
genuine and to have been signed or presented by the proper party or parties; 
 (b) The Trustee may consult with counsel and any written
advice or Opinion of Counsel shall be full and complete authorization and protection in respect of any action taken, suffered or omitted by it hereunder in good faith and in accordance with such written advice or Opinion of Counsel; 
 (c) Whenever in the administration of this Agreement the Trustee or its agent shall deem it desirable that a matter be proved or established prior to
taking, suffering or omitting any action hereunder, including any action by the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.01, the Trustee or its agent (unless other evidence be herein specifically prescribed) may request and, in the absence of bad faith
on its part, rely upon any Officer’s Certificate; 
 (d) The Trustee shall be under no obligation to exercise any of the rights or
powers vested in it by this Agreement, or to institute, conduct or defend any litigation hereunder or in relation hereto, at the request, order or direction of any of the Certificateholders, pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement, unless such
Certificateholders shall have offered to the Trustee reasonable security or indemnity against the costs, expenses and liabilities which may be incurred therein or thereby; nothing herein shall, however, relieve the Trustee of the obligations, upon
the occurrence of a Servicing Event of Default (which has not been cured), to exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and to use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise as a prudent man would exercise or
use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs; 
 (e) The Trustee shall not be personally liable for any action taken,
suffered or omitted by it in good faith and believed by it to be authorized or within the discretion or rights or powers conferred upon it by this Agreement; 
 (f) Prior to the occurrence of a Servicing Event of Default and after the curing of all Servicing Events of Default which may have occurred, the Trustee shall not be bound to make any investigation into the facts or
matters stated in any resolution, certificate, statement, instrument, opinion, report, notice, request, consent, order, approval, bond or other paper or document, unless requested in writing so to do by the Holders of the Required Amount of
Certificates; provided, however, that if the payment within a reasonable time to the Trustee of the costs, expenses or liabilities likely to be incurred by it in the making of such investigation is, in the opinion of the Trustee, not
reasonably assured to the Trustee by the security afforded to it by the terms of this Agreement, the Trustee may require reasonable security or indemnity from such Holders against such cost, expense or liability as a condition to such investigation.
Nothing in this subsection (f) shall derogate the obligation of the Servicer to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors; 
 (g) The Trustee may appoint agents (which may include the Depositor and its Affiliates) to perform any of the responsibilities of the Trustee, which
agents shall have any or all of the rights, powers, duties and obligations of the Trustee conferred on them by such appointment, provided that the Trustee shall continue to be responsible for its duties and obligations under this Agreement,
but the Trustee will not be responsible for any negligence or misconduct on the part of any agent appointed by the Trustee with due care; 
  

 54 

 (h) The Trustee shall not be required to give any bond or surety in connection with the execution of the
Trust created hereby or the powers granted hereunder; and 
 (i) The Trustee shall in no event be liable to any Holder for any special,
indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including, without limitation, lost profits), even if the Trustee has been advised of the likelihood of such loss or damage and regardless of the form of action. 
 Section 8.03 Trustee Not Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans. The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the
certificate of authentication on the Certificates) shall be taken as the statements of CRMSI and the Trustee assumes no responsibility for the correctness of the same. The Trustee makes no representations as to the validity or sufficiency of this
Agreement, the Mortgage File Custodial Agreement or of the Certificates (other than the certificate of authentication on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document. The Trustee shall not be accountable for the use or application
by CRMSI of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account or Escrow Account.
The Trustee shall have no liability for any losses incurred as a result of (i) any failure of the Trust Fund to qualify as the specified separate Constituent REMICs, (ii) any termination, inadvertent or otherwise, of the status of the
Trust Fund as the specified separate Constituent REMICs, (iii) any tax on prohibited transactions imposed by Code Section 860F(a)(1), (iv) any tax on net income from foreclosure property imposed by Code Section 860G(c),
(v) any tax on contributions to any Constituent REMIC after the Startup Day imposed by Code Section 860G(d) or (vi) any erroneous calculation or determination or any act or omission of the Servicer hereunder; provided, that the
Trustee shall not be excused hereby from liability for its own negligence, bad faith or failure to perform its duties as specified herein. 
 Section 8.04 Trustee May Own Certificates. The Trustee in its individual or any other capacity may become the owner or pledgee of one or more of the Certificates with the same rights as it would have if it were not Trustee and may
otherwise deal with the Depositor and its Affiliates as if it were not the Trustee. 
 Section 8.05 Trustee’s Fees and Expenses.
The Trustee’s fees and expenses (and those of any co-trustee appointed pursuant to Section 8.10, any Certificate Registrar, any Custodian, Depository, Paying Agent, any Authenticating Agent appointed pursuant to Section 8.12 and any
agent appointed pursuant to Section 8.2(g)) shall be paid by the Depositor pursuant to Section 12.05 and Section 4.11. The Trustee (and any co-trustee) shall be entitled to reasonable compensation (which shall not be limited by any
provision of law regarding the compensation of a trustee of an express trust) for all services rendered by it in execution of the trusts hereby created and in the exercise and performance of the Trustee’s powers and duties hereunder. Upon
notice to the Depositor, the Trustee will be reimbursed for all reasonable expenses and disbursements incurred by the Trustee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement (including the reasonable compensation, disbursements and expenses of
its counsel and all persons not regularly in its employ), except any such expense or disbursement as may arise from its negligence or bad faith or which is covered by any undertaking by Certificateholders pursuant to 8.02(d) or (f) or, if
applicable, Section 8.01(e). The Trustee and any director, officer or employee of the Trustee shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred or paid to third parties (other than salaries
paid to employees, and allocable overhead, of the Trustee) in connection with its acceptance and administration of its trusts hereunder or under the Certificates, except any such expense, loss or liability as may arise from its negligence, bad faith
or willful misconduct or which is covered by any indemnity provided by the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 8.02(d) or (f) or, if applicable, Section 8.01(e). The provisions of this Section 8.05 shall survive the
termination of this Agreement and the resignation or removal of the Trustee. 
 The Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Custodian, each
Depository, each Paying Agent, each Authenticating Agent and any agent appointed pursuant to Section 8.02 are entitled to indemnification 

  

 55 

 
from the Depositor, and will be held harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred without negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct on their
part, arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of the trust or trusts hereunder, including the costs and expenses of defending themselves against any claim or liability in connection with the exercise or performance of
any of their powers or duties hereunder. Such indemnification shall survive the payment of the Certificates and termination of the Trust Fund, as well as the resignation or removal of CFMC as Servicer, and for purposes of such indemnification the
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of any of the entities enumerated in the preceding sentence shall not be imputed to, or adversely affect, the right of any other enumerated entity to be entitled to indemnification. 
 Section 8.06 Eligibility Requirements for Trustee. The Trustee hereunder shall at all times be a corporation or a national banking association,
other than an Affiliate of the Depositor, organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America or any State thereof, authorized under such laws to exercise corporate trust powers, having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $30,000,000 and subject to supervision or examination by federal or state authority and having a deposit rating in the category of at least “A” from each Rating Agency. If such corporation or national banking association publishes
reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of the aforesaid supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.06, the combined capital and surplus of such corporation or national
banking association shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. In case at any time the Trustee shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this
Section 8.06, the Trustee shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07. 
 Section 8.07
Resignation or Removal of Trustee. The Trustee may at any time resign and be discharged from the trusts hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly
appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument , in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to 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 Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the
Depositor, 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, conversion or liquidation, then the Depositor may remove the Trustee. If the Depositor removes the Trustee under the authority of the preceding sentence, the Depositor shall
promptly appoint a successor Trustee by written instrument, in duplicate, one copy of which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee so removed and one copy to the successor Trustee. 
 The Trustee may also be removed at any time (i) by the Depositor, (a) if the Trustee breaches any of its duties under this Agreement, which
breach materially adversely affects the Certificateholders, (b) if through the performance or nonperformance of certain actions by the Trustee, any rating assigned to the Certificates would be reduced, qualified or withdrawn or (c) if the
credit rating of the Trustee is downgraded to a level which would result in any rating assigned to the Certificates to be reduced, qualified or withdrawn; or (ii) by the holders of Certificates evidencing more than 50% of the Voting Interest of
the Certificates then outstanding and more than 50% of the Percentage Interests of the Residual Certificates. 
 Any resignation or removal
of the Trustee and appointment of a successor Trustee pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section 8.07 shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee as provided in Section 8.08. 
  

 56 

 Section 8.08 Successor Trustee. Any successor Trustee appointed as provided in Section 8.07
shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Depositor and to its predecessor Trustee an instrument accepting such appointment hereunder, and thereupon the resignation or removal of the predecessor Trustee shall become effective and such successor
Trustee, without any further act, deed or conveyance, shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties and obligations of its predecessor hereunder with like effect as if originally named as Trustee. The predecessor Trustee shall
deliver to the successor Trustee all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder; and the predecessor Trustee shall amend the Mortgage File Custodial Agreement to make the successor Trustee the successor to the
predecessor Trustee thereunder; and the Depositor and the predecessor Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments and do other such things as may reasonably be required for fully and certainly vesting and confirming in the successor Trustee
all such rights, powers, duties and obligations. All costs associated with the appointment of a successor Trustee shall be paid to the Person that incurred them by the predecessor Trustee. Without limiting the predecessor Trustee’s obligation,
if the predecessor Trustee fails to pay such costs, such costs shall be reimbursed by the Trust; provided, however, that if the predecessor Trustee has been terminated pursuant to the third paragraph of Section 8.07, all reasonable expenses
incurred in complying with this Section 8.08 shall be reimbursed by the Trust to the Person that incurred them. 
 No successor Trustee
shall accept appointment as provided in this Section 8.08 unless at the time of such acceptance such successor Trustee shall be eligible under Section 8.06. 
 Upon acceptance of appointment by a successor Trustee as provided in this Section 8.08, the Depositor shall mail notice of the succession of such Trustee hereunder to all Holders of Certificates at their
addresses as shown in the Certificate Register. If the Depositor fails to mail such notice within 10 days after acceptance of appointment by the successor Trustee, the successor Trustee shall cause such notice to be mailed at the expense of the
Depositor. 
 The predecessor Trustee and successor Trustee shall notify the Depositor and the Servicer of any such appointment at least two
Business Days prior to the effective date thereof and shall provide the Servicer with all information required by the Servicer to comply with the reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K with respect to the Trust not later than the
effective date of such appointment. 
 Section 8.09 Merger or Consolidation of Trustee. Any corporation or national banking
association into which the Trustee may be merged or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any corporation or national banking association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Trustee shall be a party, or
any corporation or national banking association succeeding to all or substantially all of the corporate trust business of the Trustee, shall be the successor of the Trustee hereunder, provided such corporation or national banking association shall
be eligible under Section 8.06, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the Trustee and such surviving
Person shall notify the Depositor and the Servicer of any such merger, conversion or consolidation and shall provide the Servicer with all information required by the Servicer to comply with the reporting obligation under Item 6.02 of Form 8-K
with respect to the Trust not later than the effective date of such merger, conversion or consolidation. 
 Section 8.10 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, and,
subject to the other 

  

 57 

 
provisions of this Section 8.10, such powers, duties, obligations, rights and trusts as the Depositor and the Trustee may consider necessary and
desirable. If the Depositor shall not have joined in such appointment within 15 days after the receipt by it of a request so to do, or in the case a Servicing Event of Default shall have occurred and be continuing, the Trustee alone shall have the
power to make such appointment. No co-trustee or separate trustee hereunder shall be required to meet the terms of eligibility as a successor trustee under Section 8.06 and no notice to the Certificateholders of the appointment of any
co-trustee or separate trustee shall be required under Section 8.08. 
 Every separate trustee and co-trustee shall, to the extent
permitted by law and by the instrument appointing such separate trustee or co-trustee, be appointed and act subject to the following provisions and conditions: 
 (a) All rights, powers, duties and obligations conferred or imposed upon the Trustee shall be conferred or imposed upon and exercised or performed by the Trustee and such separate trustee or co-trustee jointly (it
being understood that such separate trustee or co-trustee is not authorized to act separately without the Trustee joining such act), except to the extent that under any law of any jurisdiction in which any particular act or acts are to be performed
(whether as Trustee or as successor to 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; 
 (b) No trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and 
 (c) The Depositor and the Trustee acting jointly may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any 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 then separate trustees and co-trustees, as
effectively as if given to each of them. Every instrument appointing any separate trustee or co-trustee shall refer to this Agreement and the conditions of this Article VIII. Each separate trustee and co-trustee, upon its acceptance of the 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 of the provisions 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. 
 Section 8.11 Tax Returns. (a) The

Internal Revenue Service and applicable state or local tax authorities income tax or information returns for each taxable year for each Constituent REMIC, containing such information and at the times and in the manner as may be required by the Code
or state or local tax laws, regulations or rules, and shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Certificateholders, the schedules, statements or information at such times and in such manner as may be required thereby. Such federal, state or local
income tax or information returns, at the written request of the Depositor, be signed by the Trustee or such other person as may be required to sign such returns by the Code or state or local tax laws, regulations or rules, provided that the

 (b) In the first federal income tax return of each of the Constituent REMICs for its short taxable year
ending December 31 in the year in which the Startup Day occurs, REMIC status shall be elected for such taxable year and all succeeding taxable years. 
 (c) The Servicer on behalf of the Trustee will maintain such records relating to each of the Constituent REMICs, including but not limited to the income, expenses, assets and liabilities thereof, and the adjusted
basis of the property thereof determined at such intervals as may be required by the Code, as may be necessary to prepare the foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information. 
 (d) If in any taxable year there will be more than one holder of any class of residual certificates, a tax matters person may be designated for
the related REMIC, as more specifically provided for in Section 12.06. 
 (e) Each Holder of a Residual Certificate shall
be deemed to have agreed, by acceptance thereof, to be bound by this Section 8.11, by Section 5.02 and by the “REMIC-Related Provisions” set forth in Section 12.04. 
 Section 8.12 Appointment of Authenticating Agent. At any time when any of the Certificates remain outstanding the Trustee may appoint an
Authenticating Agent or Agents (which may include CRMSI or any of its Affiliates) which shall be authorized to act on behalf of the Trustee to authenticate Certificates, and Certificates so authenticated shall be entitled to the benefit of this
Agreement and shall be valid and obligatory for all purposes as if authenticated by the Trustee hereunder. Wherever reference is made in this Agreement to the authentication and delivery of Certificates by the Trustee or the Trustee’s
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to include authentication and delivery 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 shall be acceptable to the Depositor and shall at all times be a corporation or national banking association organized and doing business under the laws of the United States of America, any state thereof or the
District of Columbia, authorized under such laws to act as Authenticating Agent, having a combined capital and surplus of not less than $15,000,000, authorized under such laws to conduct a trust business and subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authority. If such Authenticating Agent publishes reports of condition at least annually, pursuant to law or to the requirements of said supervising or examining authority, then for the purposes of this Section 8.12, the
combined capital and surplus of such Authenticating Agent shall be deemed to be its combined capital and surplus as set forth in its most recent report of condition so published. If at any time an Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance with the provisions of this Section 8.12, such Authenticating Agent shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in this Section 8.12. 
 Any corporation or national banking association into which an Authenticating Agent may be merged in or converted or with which it may be consolidated, or
any corporation or national banking association resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Authenticating Agent shall be a party, or any corporation or national banking association succeeding to the corporate agency or
corporate trust business of an Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be an Authenticating Agent, provided such corporation or national banking association shall be otherwise eligible under this Section 8.12, without the execution or filing of
any paper or any further act on the part of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent. 
 An Authenticating Agent may resign at any time by
giving written notice thereof to the Trustee and to the Depositor. The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of an Authenticating Agent by giving written notice thereof to such Authenticating Agent and to the Depositor. Upon receiving such a
notice of resignation or upon such a termination, or in case at any time such Authenticating Agent shall cease to be eligible in accordance with this Section 8.12, the Trustee may appoint a successor acceptable to the Depositor and shall mail
written notice of such appointment by first-class mail, postage prepaid to all Certificateholders as their names and addresses appear in the Certificate Register. Any successor 

  

 59 

 
Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of its appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights, powers and duties of its predecessor hereunder,
with like effect as if originally named as an Authenticating Agent herein. No successor Authenticating Agent shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this Section 8.12. 
 Any reasonable compensation paid to an Authenticating Agent for its services under this Section 8.12 shall be a reimbursable expense pursuant to
Section 8.05 if paid by the Trustee. 
 If an appointment is made pursuant to this Section 8.12, the Certificates may have endorsed
thereon, in addition to the Trustee’s certificate of authentication, an alternate certificate of authentication in the following form: 
  

			
	“This is one of the Certificates referred to in the within-mentioned Agreement.
	
	  
	 As Trustee

		
	By:	 	  
	 Authenticating Agent

		
	By:	 	  
	 Authenticating Signature”

 Section 8.13 Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee. The Trustee may at any time on
or after the Closing Date, with the consent of the Depositor and the Servicer, appoint one or more Custodians to hold all or a portion of the Mortgage Files as agent for the Trustee, by entering into a custodial agreement in a form acceptable to the
Depositor and the Servicer. Subject to this Article VII, the Trustee agrees to comply with the terms of each custodial agreement and to enforce the terms and provisions thereof against the Custodian for the benefit of the Certificateholders. Each
Custodian shall be a depository institution subject to supervision by federal or state authority, shall have a combined capital and surplus of at least $10,000,000 and shall be qualified to do business in the jurisdiction in which it holds any
Mortgage File. 
 Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent the Trustee appoints one or more Custodians with respect to more than 5% of
the aggregate Pool Balance, the Trustee shall cause such Custodian to prepare a separate assessment and attestation report, as contemplated by Sections 3.14 and 3.15 of this Agreement and deliver such report to the Trustee as set forth in
Section 3.15(c) of this Agreement. 
 ARTICLE IX 
 TERMINATION 
 Section 9.01 Termination upon Repurchase by Depositor or Liquidation of Mortgage Loans.
(a) The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee created hereby and the Trust Fund created hereby shall terminate upon the earlier of (x) the repurchase on a Distribution Date by the Depositor
of all of the Mortgage Loans and all property acquired in respect of any Mortgage Loan remaining in the Trust Fund at a price equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the Unpaid Loan Balance of each Mortgage Loan as of the related Determination Date,
together with accrued interest thereon to (but not including) such Distribution Date at the related Mortgage Note Rate, to the extent not previously advanced by the Servicer, (ii) unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Delinquency Advances, and
(iii) the appraised value of any REO Property in the Trust Fund (up to the related Unpaid Loan Balance, and less the good faith estimate of the Depositor of liquidation expenses to be incurred in connection with its disposal thereof), such
appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Depositor and the Trustee and (y) 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 

  

 60 

 
of all property acquired upon foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and (ii) the payment to the Certificateholders of all
amounts required to be paid to them pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the lawful descendants
of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late Ambassador of the United States of America to the Court of St. James’s, living on the date of this Agreement. Such termination shall occur only in connection with a “qualified liquidation” of each
Constituent REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A), pursuant to which the Trustee shall sell or otherwise dispose of all of the remaining assets of the Trust Fund and make all required distributions to Certificateholders within
90 days of the adoption of a plan of complete liquidation. For this purpose, the notice of termination described in the next paragraph shall be the adoption of a plan of complete liquidation described in Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A)(i), which
shall be deemed to occur on the date the first such notice is mailed. Such date shall be specified in the final federal income tax return of each Constituent REMIC constituting the Trust Fund. 
 (b) The right of the Depositor to repurchase all of the Mortgage Loans on any Distribution Date pursuant to clause (a)(x) above shall be conditioned upon
(A) the Aggregate Current Pool Balance, at the time of such repurchase and after giving effect to distributions and allocations of losses to be made on such Distribution Date, being less than 10% of the Aggregate Initial Pool Balance and
(B) any other condition set forth in Article XII. The payment made by the Depositor under clause (a)(x) above shall be in addition to (but not in duplication of any part of) the distribution that would otherwise be made on the Certificates on
such Distribution Date. The Depositor shall have the right, in its sole discretion, to transfer its right to repurchase the Mortgage Loans to any third party of its choice. 
 (c) Any other method of termination of the Trust or repurchase of Mortgage Loans than as set forth above must be based on the receipt by the Trustee of
an Opinion of Counsel or other evidence that such termination or repurchase will be part of a “qualified liquidation” within the meaning of Code Section 860F(a)(4)(A), will not adversely affect the status of the Trust Fund as the
separate Constituent REMICs under the Code and will not otherwise subject the Trust Fund to any tax. 
 (d) Notice of any termination,
specifying the Distribution Date upon which the Certificateholders may surrender their Certificates to the Paying Agent (or if there is no Paying Agent, the Trustee) for payment of the final distribution and cancellation, shall be given promptly by
the Trustee by letter to Certificateholders mailed not later than 30 days nor more than 60 days prior to such Distribution Date specifying (A) the Distribution Date upon which final payment of the Certificates will be made upon presentation and
surrender of Certificates at the office therein designated, (B) the amount of such final payment and (C) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and
surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Paying Agent therein specified. The Depositor shall provide such notice to the Trustee prior to the time at which such notice is required to be given to Certificateholders and, if applicable, to the
Certificate Registrar, the Custodian and the Paying Agent at the time such notice is given to Certificateholders. In the event such notice is given, the Depositor shall deposit in the Certificate Account or the account designated by the Paying Agent
if the Depositor is not the Paying Agent, on the Business Day preceding the Distribution Date for such final distribution, an amount equal to the final payment in respect of the Certificates. Upon certification to the Trustee by an Authorized
Officer of the Depositor to the effect that all conditions set forth in this Article IX have been met, the Trustee shall promptly release the Mortgage Files to the Depositor or its designee. 
 In the event that all Certificateholders shall not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within six months after the date specified in the
above-mentioned notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second
notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps, or may appoint an agent to take appropriate steps, to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of their

  

 61 

 
Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the funds deposited by the Depositor for such final payment which remain subject hereto. Interest
shall not accrue for the period of any delay in the payment of a Certificate resulting from the failure of a Holder to surrender such Certificate in accordance herewith. 
 ARTICLE X 
 GENERAL PROVISIONS 
 Section 10.01 Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee, without the consent of any of the Certificateholders, (a) to cure any ambiguity or
error, (b) to correct or supplement any provisions herein or therein which may be inconsistent with any other provisions herein or therein, (c) to add any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under this Agreement,
which shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement, (d) to comply with any requirements imposed by the Code, (e) to establish a “qualified reserve fund” within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(7)(B) or
(f) to maintain the status of the Trust Fund as separate Constituent REMICs. This Agreement may also be amended by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee, without Certificateholder consent, if the Depositor delivers an Opinion of Counsel
acceptable to the Trustee to the effect that such amendment will not materially adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders. In lieu of an Opinion of Counsel, the Depositor may deliver a confirmation from each Rating Agency that such
amendment will not cause a downgrade, qualification or withdrawal with respect to any affected Certificates. The Trustee hereby agrees to execute and deliver any amendment to this Agreement provided by the Depositor to it, that conforms to the
applicable provisions of the preceding three sentences of this paragraph provided, however, that the Trustee may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment that affects the Trustee’s own rights, duties or
immunities under this Agreement. 
 This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee with
the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing, in the aggregate, not less than 66-2/3% of the Voting Interest of the Certificates affected by such amendment (after giving effect to the first proviso to the definition of
“Outstanding”; and provided that if any Class of Certificates is affected differently in any material respect by such amendment than the other affected Classes, the consent of the Holders of Certificates evidencing 66-2/3% of the Voting
Interest of each such differently affected Class shall be required) and, if the Residual Certificates are materially and adversely affected by such amendment, 66-2/3% of the Percentage Interests of the Residual Certificates so affected, 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 the Certificates; provided, however, that (i) in
connection with any such amendment, the Depositor shall deliver an Opinion of Counsel acceptable to the Trustee (x) identifying any Class of Certificates that may be affected differently in any material respect than the other affected Classes
(or stating that there is no such differently affected Class) and (y) identifying any Class whose Certificateholders would not be affected by such amendment and (ii) no such amendment shall, without the consent of the Holders of all
Certificates then Outstanding, (a) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, collections or payments received on Mortgage Loans or distributions which are required to be made on any Certificate or (b) reduce the aforesaid
percentage required to consent to any such amendment. Promptly after the execution of any such amendment or consent the Trustee shall furnish or cause to be furnished written notification of the substance of such amendment (or a copy thereof) to
each Certificateholder. 
 It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 10.01 to approve the
particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by the Certificateholders
shall be subject to such reasonable requirements as the Trustee may prescribe. Any proposed amendment is subject to the receipt by the Trustee, at the expense of the 

  

 62 

 
party proposing such amendment (or at the expense of the Trust Fund if proposed by the Trustee) that the amendment will not cause any Constituent REMIC to
fail to qualify as a REMIC or subject any Constituent REMIC to tax. 
 Prior to entering into any amendment pursuant to this Section, the
Trustee may request and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel stating that the proposed amendment is permissible under this Agreement and that all conditions precedent, if any, to the entering into of such amendment have been fulfilled. 
 Section 10.02 Recordation of Agreement. This Agreement is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in
all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the properties subject to the Mortgages are situated and in which this Agreement may be recorded, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere, such
recordation to be effected by the Depositor and at its expense upon request of the Trustee, who will act at the direction of the Holders of a majority by Percentage Interest of the Residual Certificates, but only upon request of the Trustee
accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel, provided at the expense of such Holders, to the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the interests of the Certificateholders; provided, however, that recordation of this
Agreement shall not be required unless recordation of each assignment relating to the Mortgages is required to be made pursuant to Section 7.01. 
 For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts
shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument. 
 Section 10.03 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 Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to
take any action or commence any proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust Fund, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them. 
 No Certificateholder shall have any right to vote (except as provided in Section 10.01) 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 the Certificates, be construed so as to constitute the Certificateholders from time to time as partners (except
to the extent provided in Code Section 860F(e) with respect to Holders of Residual Certificates) or members of an association; nor shall any Certificateholder be under any liability to any third person by reason of any action taken by the
parties to this Agreement pursuant to any provision hereof. 
 No Certificateholder shall have any right by virtue 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 default and of the
continuance thereof as hereinbefore provided, and unless also the Holders of the Required Amount of Certificates shall have made written request upon the Trustee to institute such action, suit or proceeding in its own name as Trustee hereunder and
shall have offered to the Trustee such reasonable indemnity as it may require against the 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 equal, ratable and common benefit of all Certificateholders. For the
protection and enforcement of the provisions of this Section 10.03, each and every Certificateholder and the Trustee shall be entitled to such relief as can be given either at law or in equity. 
  

 63 

 Section 10.04 Governing Law. This Agreement and the Certificates issued pursuant to this Agreement
shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, provided that the immunities and standards of care of the Trustee shall be governed by the law of the jurisdiction in which is located its Corporate Trust Office. 

Section 10.05 Intention of Parties. The execution and delivery of this Agreement shall constitute an acknowledgment by CRMSI on behalf of the
Certificateholders that it intends hereby to establish and maintain (for federal income tax purposes) one or more “real estate mortgage investment conduits” within the meaning of Code Section 860D and CRMSI and the Trustee are hereby
granted all necessary powers to further such intent. 
 Section 10.06 Notices. All communications relating to this Agreement including
all demands and notices shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered at or mailed by first class mail, to the applicable address for notices set forth in Article XII or, as to each party, at such other
address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. Any notice required or permitted to be mailed to a Certificateholder shall be given by first class mail, postage prepaid, at the address of such Holder as shown in
the Certificate Register. Any notice so mailed within the time prescribed in this Agreement shall be conclusively presumed to have been duly given, whether or not the Certificateholder receives such notice; provided that notices to the Trustee shall
be effective only upon receipt. 
 Section 10.07 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 and terms of this Agreement
and shall in no way affect the validity or enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement or of the Certificates or the rights of the Holders thereof. 
 Section 10.08 Assignment. Except as provided in Sections 6.02, 6.04 and 6.06, this Agreement may not be assigned by CRMSI or CFMC without the prior written consent of the Trustee. 
 Section 10.09 Certificates Nonassessable and Fully Paid. It is the intention of the Depositor that the Certificateholders shall not be personally
liable for obligations of the Trust Fund, that the interests represented by the Certificates shall be nonassessable for any reason whatsoever, and that the Certificates upon due authentication thereof by the Trustee are and shall be deemed fully
paid. 
 Section 10.10 No Usurious Intent. The amount of interest paid or payable on any Certificate shall be limited to an amount
that shall not exceed the maximum nonusurious rate of interest which, under applicable New York law or any applicable United States federal law, could be lawfully contracted for, charged or received.

together shall constitute one and the same instrument. 
 ARTICLE XI 
 DEPOSITORIES 
 Section 11.01 Depositories. The Depositor may at any time and
from time to time in its discretion transfer the Certificate Account, the Collection Account or any Escrow Account to a bank, savings and loan association or trust company organized under the laws of the United States or any State thereof (an
“eligible depository”). Upon such transfer, such transferee bank, savings and loan association or trust company shall be deemed 

  

 64 

 
to be a Depository with respect to the account or accounts so transferred. In the event that the long-term debt obligations of any Depository of the
Certificate Account, Collection Account or Escrow Account shall be rated at less than A by Fitch if Fitch is a Rating Agency, or the short-term debt obligations of such Depository shall be rated by S&P at less than A-1+ if S&P is a Rating
Agency, by Fitch at less than F-1 if Fitch is a Rating Agency and by Moody’s at less than P-1 if Moody’s is a Rating Agency (the “Ratings Requirements”) and such account does not otherwise meet the requirements of this
Section 11.01, then within five Business Days of such reduction, the Depositor shall (A) transfer or direct the Trustee in writing to transfer the Certificate Account, Collection Account or Escrow Account to an eligible depository
satisfying the Ratings Requirements, (B) establish another account in the corporate trust department of the Trustee or if such Trustee has a long-term and short-term debt rating at least equal to the Rating Requirements, in any department of
the Trustee (the “Alternative Certificate Account”, the “Alternative Collection Account” or the “Alternative Escrow Account”, as the case may be) and direct the Servicer to remit in accordance with this Agreement any
funds deposited into the Escrow Account to the Alternative Escrow Account, and direct the Servicer to remit in accordance with this Agreement any funds deposited into the Certificate Account or the Collection Account to the Alternative Certificate
Account or Alternative Collection Account, respectively, (C) (i) cause such Depository to pledge securities in the manner provided by applicable law or (ii) pledge or cause to be pledged securities, which shall be held by the Trustee
or its agent free and clear of the lien of any third party, in a manner conferring on the Trustee a perfected first lien and otherwise reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee; such pledge in either case to secure such Depository’s performance of
its obligations in respect of the Certificate Account, Collection Account or Escrow Account to the extent, if any, that such obligation is not fully insured by the FDIC; provided, however, that prior to the day a Depository or the
Depositor, as the case may be, pledges securities pursuant to this subsection (C), the Depositor and the Trustee shall have received the written assurance of each Rating Agency that the pledging of such securities and any arrangements or agreements
relating thereto will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the then-current rating of the Certificates, (D) establish an account or accounts or enter into an agreement so that the existing Certificate Account, Collection Account or Escrow
Account is supported by a letter of credit or some other form of credit support which the provider of such letter of credit or other form of credit support has a long-term and short-term debt rating at least equal to the Rating Requirements;
provided, however, that prior to the establishment of such an account or the entering into of such an agreement, the Depositor and the Trustee shall have received written assurance from each Rating Agency that the establishment of such
an account or the entering into of such an agreement so that the existing Certificate Account, Collection Account or Escrow Account is supported by a letter of credit or some other form of credit support will not result in a reduction or withdrawal
of the then-current rating on the Certificates, (E) establish another account which constitutes an Eligible Account or (F) make such other arrangements as to which the Depositor and the Trustee have received prior written assurance from
each Rating Agency that such arrangement will not result in a reduction or withdrawal of the then-current rating on the Certificates. In the event that the rating on the Certificates has been downgraded as a result of a rating downgrade of the
Depository, for purposes of this paragraph, the then-current rating on the Certificates shall be the rating assigned to the Certificates prior to any such downgrade.

          The present value of the anticipated tax liabilities associated with holding the Residual Certificate does not exceed the sum of: 
 (i) the present value of any consideration given to the Investor to acquire the Residual Certificate; 
 (ii) the present value of the expected future distributions on the Residual Certificate; and 
 (iii) the present value of the anticipated tax savings associated with holding on the Residual Certificate as the REMIC generates losses. 
 For purposes of this calculation, (i) the Investor is assumed to pay tax at the highest rate currently specified in Code Section 11(b) (but the
tax rate in Code Section 55(b)(1)(B) may be used in lieu of the highest rate specified in Code Section 11(b) if the Investor has been subject to the alternative minimum tax under Code Section 55 in the preceding two years and will
compute its taxable income in the current taxable year using the alternative minimum tax rate) and (ii) present values are computed using a discount rate equal to the short-term Federal rate prescribed by Code Section 1274(d) for the month
of the transfer and the compounding period used by the Investor. 
         
The transfer of the Residual Certificate complies with U.S. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860G-1(c)(5) and (6) and, accordingly, 
 (i)
the Investor is an “eligible corporation,” as defined in US. Treasury Regulations Sections 1.860E-1(c)(6)(i), as to which income from the Residual Certificate will only be taxed in the United States; 
 (ii) at the time of the transfer, and at the close of the Investor’s two fiscal years preceding the year of the transfer, the Investor had gross
assets for financial reporting purposes (excluding any obligation of a person related to the Investor within the meaning of U.S. Treasury Regulation Section 1.860E-1(c)(6)(ii)) in excess of $100 million and net assets in excess of $10 million;

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

 (iv) the Investor determined the consideration paid to it to acquire the Residual Certificate based on
reasonable market assumptions (including, but not limited to, borrowing and investment rates, prepayment and loss assumptions, expense and reinvestment assumptions, tax rates and other factors specific to the Investor) that it has determined in good
faith. 
              None of the above. 
 IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Investor has caused this instrument to be executed on its behalf, pursuant to authority of its Board of Directors, by its
[                    ] this              day of 200  .
