All original documents relating to the Mortgage Loans that are not delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) are and shall be held by or on behalf of the related Originator, the Seller, the Depositor or the Servicer, as the case may be, in trust for the benefit of the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders. In the event that any such original document is required pursuant to the terms of this Section 2.01 to be a part of a Mortgage File, such document shall be delivered promptly to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee). Any such original document delivered to or held by the Depositor that is not required pursuant to the terms of this Section to be a part of a Mortgage File, shall be delivered promptly to the Servicer.

The Depositor and the Trustee hereto understand and agree that it is not intended that any Mortgage Loan be included in the Trust that is a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined by the Homeownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 or any other applicable predatory or abusive lending laws.

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

SECTION 2.02. Acceptance of REMIC I by Trustee.

The Trustee acknowledges receipt (or receipt by the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph below, of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) above and all other assets included in the definition of “REMIC I” under clauses (i), (iii), (iv) and (v) (to the extent of amounts deposited into the Distribution Account) and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “REMIC I” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.

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

The Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders and the NIMS Insurer, to review each Mortgage File and, within 45 days of the Closing Date, to certify in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit C-1 that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents constituting part of such Mortgage File (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(v)) required to be delivered to it pursuant to this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and appear regular on their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on its examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (1), (3), (12), (15) and (18) of the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File. It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) is under no duty or obligation (i) to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine whether they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or whether they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face or (ii) to determine whether any Mortgage File should include any of the documents specified in clause (v) of Section 2.01.

Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement, the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Master Servicer a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit C-2 evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon, and the Servicer shall forward a copy thereof to any Sub-Servicer.

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

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

The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders and that such property not be part of the Depositor’s estate or property of the Depositor in the event of any insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed to be, or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the Trustee a first priority perfected security interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, the related Mortgage Notes and the related documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee with respect to the custody, acceptance, inspection, receipt and release of the Mortgage Files pursuant to Section 2.01, 2.02 and 2.03 and preparation and delivery of the acknowledgements of receipt and the certifications required under such sections shall be performed by the Custodian pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

SECTION 2.03. Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by an Originator or the Seller.

(a) Upon receipt of written notice from the Custodian of any materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or from the Depositor, a Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Custodian of the breach by an Originator or the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the related Originator Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement, as applicable (including any representation, warranty or covenant regarding the Prepayment Charge Schedule), in respect of any Mortgage Loan that materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee shall promptly notify such Originator, the Trust Administrator, the NIMS Insurer, the Seller, the Servicer and the Master Servicer of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the related Originator or the Seller, as applicable, deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date such Originator or the Seller, as applicable, was notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Trustee receives written notice from the Depositor, a Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Custodian, that the related Originator or the Seller, as applicable, has not delivered such missing document or cured such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the Trustee shall enforce the obligations of such Originator or the Seller, as applicable, under the related Mater Agreement or Assignment Agreement to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC I at the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be remitted to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account and the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the related Originator or the Seller, as applicable, the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the related Originator or the Seller, as applicable, shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in such Originator or the Seller, as applicable, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. In furtherance of the foregoing, if an Originator or the Seller, as applicable, is not a member of MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is registered on the MERS® System, the related Originator or the Seller, as applicable, at its own expense and without any right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the related Originator or the Seller, as applicable, and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations. Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian shall have any further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, if so provided in the related Originator Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement, an Originator or the Seller, as applicable, may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from REMIC I (in which case it shall become a Deleted Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(b); provided, however, the related Originator or the Seller, as applicable, may not substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for any Deleted Mortgage Loan that violates any predatory or abusive lending law. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Originators or the Seller, as applicable, to cure or to repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee and the Certificateholders.

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

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

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

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

(c) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, any Originator, the Seller, the Master Servicer or the Trust Administrator that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties hereto and the Trustee shall give written notice to the related Originator and the Seller. In connection therewith, the related Originator, the Seller or the Depositor shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(b), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Such repurchase or substitution shall be made by (i) the related Originator or the Seller, as the case may be, if the affected Mortgage Loan’s status as a non-qualified mortgage is or results from a breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by such Originator or the Seller, as the case may be, under the related Originator Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement, or (ii) the Depositor, if the affected Mortgage Loan’s status as a non-qualified mortgage is a breach of no representation or warranty. Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a). The Trustee shall reconvey to the Depositor, the related Originator or the Seller, as the case may be, the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.

To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer (a) shall seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes and (b) shall waive (or permit a Sub-Servicer to waive) a Prepayment Charge only under the following circumstances: (i) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans and such waiver relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the collection of such Prepayment Charge would be in violation of applicable laws, (iii) the amount of the Prepayment Charge set forth on the Prepayment Charge Schedule is not consistent with the related Mortgage Note or is otherwise unenforceable, (iv) the collection of such Prepayment Charge would be considered “predatory” pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable federal, state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and having jurisdiction over such matters or (v) the Servicer has not received information and documentation sufficient to confirm the existence or amount of such Prepayment Charge. If a Prepayment Charge is waived as permitted by meeting the standard described in clauses (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v) above, then the Trustee (upon receipt of written notice from the Servicer that such waiver has occurred) shall enforce the obligation of the related Originator to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates (the “Originator Prepayment Charge Payment Amount”). If a Prepayment Charge is waived other than in accordance with (i) through (v) above, the Servicer shall pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates (the “Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amount”).

To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer shall seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes. Subject only to the above-described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which it may deem necessary or desirable. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Sub-Servicer or in the name of the Trustee, solely in its capacity as Trustee of the Trust, is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its best judgment in accordance with the servicing standards set forth above, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties and to institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such properties, on behalf of the Trustee and Certificateholders. The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with applicable state and federal law and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be provided to them thereby. The Servicer shall also comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any standard hazard insurance policy. Subject to Section 3.17, within fifteen (15) days of the Closing Date, the Trustee shall execute, at the written request of the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer and any Sub-Servicer any special or limited powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, such limited powers of attorney or other documents shall be prepared by the Servicer and submitted to the Trustee for execution. The Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer or any Sub-Servicers under such powers of attorney.

In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be Servicing Advances reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.09, and further as provided in Section 3.11. Any cost incurred by the Servicer or by Sub-Servicers in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on a Mortgaged Property shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit provided, however, that (subject to Section 3.07) the Servicer may capitalize the amount of any Servicing Advances incurred pursuant to this Section 3.01 in connection with the modification of a Mortgage Loan.

The Servicer further is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the Sub-Servicer (but not at its expense), when the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS System, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee and its successors and assigns. Any reasonable expenses (i) incurred as a result of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue operations in connection with the MERS System or (ii) if the affected Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, incurred in connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence, shall be subject to withdrawal by the Servicer from the Collection Account.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan (except as provided in Section 4.03) and the Servicer shall not (i) permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan (except with respect to a Mortgage Loan that is in default or, in the judgment of the Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable) that would change the Mortgage Rate, reduce or increase the principal balance (except for reductions resulting from actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan or (ii) permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would both (A) effect an exchange or reissuance of such Mortgage Loan under Section 1001 of the Code (or final, temporary or proposed Treasury regulations promulgated thereunder) and (B) cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions after the startup date” under the REMIC Provisions.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary and notwithstanding its ability to do so pursuant to the terms of the related mortgage note, the Servicer shall not be required to enforce any provision in any mortgage note the enforcement of which would violate federal, state or local laws or ordinances designed to discourage predatory lending practices.

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

SECTION 3.02. Sub-Servicing Agreements Between Servicer and Sub-Servicers.

(a) The Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements (provided that such agreements would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by the Rating Agencies of the rating on any Class of Certificates) with Sub-Servicers, for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that (i) such sub-servicing arrangement and the terms of the related Sub-Servicing Agreement must provide for the servicing of Mortgage Loans in a manner consistent with the servicing arrangement contemplated hereunder and (ii) the NIMS Insurer shall have consented to such Sub-Servicing Agreement.

(b) Each Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states in which the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Sub-Servicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Sub-Servicing Agreement and (ii) a Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae approved mortgage servicer. Each Sub-Servicing Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08, 3.20, 3.21 and 4.06 and provide for servicing of the Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Servicer will examine each Sub-Servicing Agreement and will be familiar with the terms thereof. The terms of any Sub-Servicing Agreement will not be inconsistent with any of the provisions of this Agreement. The Servicer and the Sub-Servicers may enter into and make amendments to the Sub-Servicing Agreements or enter into different forms of Sub-Servicing Agreements; provided, however, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders, without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights. Any variation without the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights from the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 (relating to insurance or priority requirements of Sub-Servicing Accounts, or credits and charges to the Sub- Servicing Accounts or the timing and amount of remittances by the Sub-Servicers to the Servicer), Section 3.20 or Section 3.21, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Servicer’s execution and delivery of such instruments.

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

SECTION 3.03. Successor Sub-Servicers.

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

Any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall include the provision that such agreement may be immediately terminated by the Master Servicer (if the Master Servicer is acting as Servicer) without fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the Servicer (or the Master Servicer, if it is then acting as Servicer) shall, for any reason, no longer be the Servicer (including termination due to a Servicer Event of Default).

SECTION 3.04. Liability of the Servicer.

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

SECTION 3.05. No Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicers and the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the NIMS Insurer or Certificateholders.

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

SECTION 3.06. Assumption or Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements by Master Servicer.

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

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

SECTION 3.07. Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.

The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any applicable insurance policies, follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account. Consistent with the foregoing and the servicing standards set forth in Section 3.01, the Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, penalty interest or (ii) extend the due dates for Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided that any extension pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except as provided below; provided further that the NIMS Insurer’s prior written consent shall be required for any modification, waiver or amendment if the aggregate number of outstanding Mortgage Loans which have been modified, waived or amended exceeds 5% of the number of Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date (as reported by the Trust Administrator in the Monthly Statement as of the prior Distribution Date). In the event of any such arrangement pursuant to clause (ii) above, the Servicer shall make timely advances on such Mortgage Loan during such extension pursuant to Section 4.03 and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan is in default or, in the judgment of the Servicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Servicer, consistent with the standards set forth in Section 3.01, may waive, modify or vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including, but not limited to, modifications that change the Mortgage Rate, forgive the payment of principal or interest or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan), accept payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated Principal Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan (such payment, a “Short Pay-off”) or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant indulgence to any Mortgagor without the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, if in the Servicer’s determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the interests of the Certificateholders (taking into account any estimated Realized Loss that might result absent such action); provided, however, the Servicer shall not modify any Mortgage Loan in a manner that would capitalize the amount of any unpaid Monthly Payments or tax or insurance payments advanced by the Servicer on the Mortgagor’s behalf unless the related Mortgagor shall have remitted an amount equal to a full Monthly Payment (or, in the case of any Mortgage Loan subject to a forbearance plan or bankruptcy plan, a full modified monthly payment under such plan) in each of the three calendar months immediately preceding the month of such modification.

SECTION 3.08. Sub-Servicing Accounts.

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

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

To the extent the terms of a Mortgage provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all collections from the Mortgagors (or related advances from Sub-Servicers) for the payment of taxes, assessments, fire, flood, and hazard insurance premiums, hazard insurance proceeds (to the extent such amounts are to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property) and comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors (“Escrow Payments”) shall be deposited and retained. Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts. The Servicer shall deposit in the Servicing Accounts on a daily basis and in no event later than the second Business Day after receipt, and retain therein, all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting the timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement. Withdrawals of amounts from a Servicing Account may be made only to (i) effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, fire, flood, and hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items; (ii) reimburse the Servicer out of related collections for any advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 3.14 (with respect to fire, flood and hazard insurance); (iii) refund to Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages; (iv) pay interest, if required and as described below, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Account; or (v) clear and terminate the Servicing Account at the termination of the Servicer’s obligations and responsibilities in respect of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement in accordance with Article IX. As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in Servicing Accounts, to the extent required by law and, to the extent that interest earned on funds in the Servicing Accounts is insufficient, to pay such interest from its or their own funds, without any reimbursement therefor. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall not be obligated to collect Escrow Payments if the related Mortgage Loan does not require such payments but the Servicer shall nevertheless be obligated to make Servicing Advances as provided in Section 3.01. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Servicing Accounts any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Servicing Accounts, any provision to the contrary notwithstanding.

To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer (i) shall determine whether any such payments are made by the Mortgagor in a manner and at a time that is necessary to avoid the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien and (ii) shall ensure that all insurance required to be maintained on the Mortgaged Property pursuant to this Agreement is maintained. If any such payment has not been made and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with respect to the Mortgage Loan being imposed, the Servicer will, to the extent required to avoid loss of the Mortgaged Property, advance or cause to be advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien on the Mortgaged Property. The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall effect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make Servicing Advances from its own funds to effect such payments.

SECTION 3.10. Collection Account.

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

(i) all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments (but not Prepayment Charges), on the Mortgage Loans;

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

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

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

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

(vi) all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased or purchased in accordance with Section 2.03 or Section 9.01;

(vii) all amounts required to be deposited in connection with shortfalls in principal amount of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 2.03; and

(viii) all Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer, and any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts in connection with the Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans.

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

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Collection Accounts shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges, Prepayment Interest Excess or assumption fees (other than Prepayment Charges) need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account. In the event the Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Collection Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

(b) On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Administrator in immediately available funds for deposit in the Distribution Account (i) on the Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available Funds for the related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account, the amount of all Prepayment Charges collected during the applicable Prepayment Period by the Servicer (including any Originator Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts) and Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amounts in connection with the Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans then on deposit in the Collection Account and (ii) on each Business Day as of the commencement of which the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 following any withdrawals pursuant to the next succeeding sentence, the amount of such excess, but only if the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account.” If the balance on deposit in the Collection Account exceeds $75,000 as of the commencement of business on any Business Day and the Collection Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of “Eligible Account,” the Servicer shall, on such Business Day, withdraw from the Collection Account any and all amounts payable or reimbursable to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Seller or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.11 and shall pay such amounts to the Persons entitled thereto.

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

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

(i) any Advances, as required pursuant to Section 4.03;

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

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

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

(e) The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Section 3.12(b) in connection with losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Collection Account.

SECTION 3.11. Withdrawals from the Collection Account.

The Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account for any of the following purposes, without priority, or as described in Section 4.03:

(i) to remit to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account the amounts required to be so remitted pursuant to Section 3.10(b) or permitted to be so remitted pursuant to the first sentence of Section 3.10(d);

(ii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to reimburse the Servicer for Advances, but only to the extent of amounts received which represent Late Collections (net of the related Servicing Fees) of Monthly Payments on Mortgage Loans with respect to which such Advances were made in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03;

(iii) subject to Section 3.16(d), to pay the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer (A) any unpaid Servicing Fees, (B) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to each Mortgage Loan, but only to the extent of any Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or other amounts as may be collected by the Servicer from a Mortgagor, or otherwise received with respect to such Mortgage Loan and (C) without limiting any right of withdrawal set forth in clause (vi) below, any Servicing Advances made with respect to a Mortgage Loan that, following the final liquidation of a Mortgage Loan are Nonrecoverable Advances, but only to the extent that Late Collections, Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds received with respect to such Mortgage Loan are insufficient to reimburse the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for such Servicing Advances;

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

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

(vi) to reimburse the Servicer for any Advance or Servicing Advance previously made which the Servicer has determined to be a Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.03;

(vii) to reimburse the Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Depositor for expenses incurred by or reimbursable to the Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Depositor, as the case may be, pursuant to Section 6.03;

(viii) to reimburse the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as the case may be, for expenses reasonably incurred in respect of the breach or defect giving rise to the purchase obligation under Section 2.03 of this Agreement that were included in the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loan, including any expenses arising out of the enforcement of the purchase obligation;

(ix) to pay itself any Prepayment Interest Excess (to the extent not otherwise retained);

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

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

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

SECTION 3.12. Investment of Funds in the Collection Account.

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

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

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

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

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

SECTION 3.13. [Reserved].

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

The terms of each Mortgage Note require the related Mortgagor to maintain fire, flood and hazard insurance policies. To the extent such policies are not maintained, the Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgaged Property fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage as is customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of the current principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements which are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any coinsurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy. The Servicer shall also cause to be maintained fire, flood and hazard insurance on each REO Property with extended coverage as is customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) 100% of the insurable value on a replacement cost basis of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (b) an amount such that the proceeds of such insurance shall be sufficient to prevent the application to the Mortgagor or the loss payee of any coinsurance clause under the policy. The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard policies. Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the procedures that the Servicer would follow in servicing loans held for its own account, subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.23, if received in respect of an REO Property. Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit; provided, however, that the Servicer may capitalize the amount of any Servicing Advances incurred pursuant to this Section 3.14 in connection with the modification of a Mortgage Loan. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. If at any time during the term of the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer determines, in accordance with applicable law, that a Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area and is not covered by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than the amount required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Servicer shall notify the related Mortgagor that the Mortgagor must obtain such flood insurance coverage, and if said Mortgagor fails to obtain the required flood insurance coverage within forty-five (45) days after such notification, the Company shall immediately force place the required flood insurance on the Mortgagor’s behalf. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program).

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

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

The Servicer shall provide to the Master Servicer evidence (in the form of an incumbency certificate) of the authorization of the person signing any certification, statement, copy or other evidence of any fidelity bond, errors and omissions policy, financial information and reports, or such other information related to the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer or to the Servicer’s or such Sub-Servicer’s performance hereunder.

SECTION 3.15. Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.

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

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

SECTION 3.16. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

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

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

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

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

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if such environmental audit reveals, or if the Servicer has actual knowledge or notice, that such Mortgaged Property contains such toxic or hazardous wastes or substances, the Servicer shall not foreclose or accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure without the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer.

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

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

(c) The Servicer or the NIMS Insurer shall have the right to purchase from REMIC I any defaulted Mortgage Loan that is 90 days or more delinquent, which the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer determines in good faith will otherwise become subject to foreclosure proceedings (evidence of such determination to be delivered in writing to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator prior to purchase), at a price equal to the Purchase Price. The Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan purchased hereunder shall be deposited in the Collection Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, of such deposit, shall release or cause to be released to the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, the related Mortgage File and the Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, of such deposit, shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, shall furnish and as shall be necessary to vest in the Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, as applicable, title to any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

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

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

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

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

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

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

SECTION 3.18. Servicing Compensation.

As compensation for the activities of the Servicer hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such Mortgage Loan, subject to Section 3.24. In addition, the Servicer shall be entitled to recover unpaid Servicing Fees out of Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.11(a)(iii)(A) and out of amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.23. The right to receive the Servicing Fee may not be transferred in whole or in part except in connection with the transfer of all of the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations under this Agreement. As part of its servicing compensation, the Servicer shall also be entitled to Prepayment Interest Excess.

Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, late payment charges and other similar fees and charges (other than Prepayment Charges) shall be retained by the Servicer (subject to Section 3.24) only to the extent such fees or charges are received by the Servicer. The Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(iv) to withdraw from the Collection Account, and pursuant to Section 3.23(b) to withdraw from any REO Account, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein, subject to Section 3.12 and Section 3.24. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder (including premiums for the insurance required by Section 3.14, to the extent such premiums are not paid by the related Mortgagors or by a Sub-Servicer, servicing compensation of each Sub-Servicer) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided herein.

SECTION 3.19. Reports; Collection Account Statements.

Upon reasonable request by the Master Servicer or the Trust Administrator (such request to be made on the related Distribution Date), the Servicer shall forward to the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator no later than ten days after such request, a statement prepared by the Servicer setting forth the status of the Collection Account as of the close of business on the last day of the calendar month relating to such Distribution Date and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and withdrawals from the Collection Account of each category of deposit specified in Section 3.10(a) and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 3.11. Such statement may be in a format as mutually agreed to among the Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator, and may also include information as to the aggregate of the outstanding principal balances of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding such Distribution Date. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Trust Administrator to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Trust Administrator as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon the request and at the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Trust Administrator.

SECTION 3.20. Statement as to Compliance.

The Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator shall deliver (or otherwise make available) (and each of the Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to deliver) to the Trust Administrator (and the Trust Administrator shall deliver (or otherwise make available) to the Depositor) on or before March 15^th (with no cure period) of each year, commencing in March 2007, an Officer’s Certificate stating, as to the signer thereof, that (A) a review of such party’s activities during the preceding calendar year or portion thereof and of such party’s performance under this Agreement, or such other applicable agreement in the case of a Servicing Function Participant, has been made under such officer’s supervision and (B) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, such party has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement, or such other applicable agreement in the case of a Servicing Function Participant, in all material respects throughout such 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. The Custodian, in its capacity as such, shall not be required to deliver such Officer’s Certificate.

The Master Servicer shall include all annual statements of compliance received by it from each Servicer with its own annual statement of compliance to be submitted to the Trust Administrator pursuant to this Section.

In the event the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by any such party is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any applicable agreement in the case of a Servicing Function Participant, as the case may be, such party shall provide an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to this Section 3.20 or the relevant section of such other applicable agreement, as the case may be, notwithstanding any such termination, assignment or resignation.

Failure of the Servicer to timely comply with this Section 3.20 shall be deemed a Servicer Event of Default, and upon receipt of written notice from the Trust Administrator of such Servicer Event of Default, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as applicable, may at the direction of the Depositor, in addition to whatever rights the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as applicable, may have under this Agreement and at law or in equity or to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, upon notice immediately terminate (as provided in Section 7.01(a)) all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof without compensating the Servicer for the same (other than the Servicer’s rights to reimbursement of unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances and accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees in the manner provided in this Agreement). This paragraph shall supersede any other provision in this Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary.

Each of the Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator (each, an “Indemnifying Party”) shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and their officers, directors and Affiliates, as applicable, from and against any actual losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses that such Person may sustain based upon a breach of the obligations of such Indemnifying Party under this Section 3.20.

SECTION 3.21. Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports.

(a) By March 15^th (with no cure period) of each calendar year, commencing in March 2007, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Custodian, each at its own expense, shall furnish or otherwise make available, and each such party shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to furnish, each at its own expense, to the Trust Administrator (and the Trust Administrator shall furnish or otherwise make available to the Depositor), a report on an assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria that contains (A) a statement by such party of its responsibility for assessing compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (B) a statement that such party used the Relevant Servicing Criteria to assess compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (C) such party’s assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for the fiscal year covered by the Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to Section 4.06, including, if there has been any material instance of noncompliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, a discussion of each such failure and the nature and status thereof, and (D) a statement that a registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on such party’s assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for such period (the “Attestation Report”). The Custodian, in its capacity as such, shall deliver such assessment of compliance only for so long as the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements.

Promptly after receipt of each such report on assessment of compliance, (i) the Depositor shall review each such report and, if applicable, consult with the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Custodian, and any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such parties, as to the nature of any material instance of noncompliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria by each such party, and (ii) the Trust Administrator shall confirm that the assessments, taken as a whole, address all of the Servicing Criteria and taken individually address the Relevant Servicing Criteria for each party as set forth on Exhibit O and notify the Depositor of any exceptions.

The Master Servicer shall include all annual reports on assessment of compliance received by it from the Servicers with its own assessment of compliance to be submitted to the Trust Administrator pursuant to this Section.

In the event the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Custodian, or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by any such party is terminated, assigns its rights and obligations under, or resigns pursuant to, the terms of this Agreement, or any other applicable agreement, as the case may be, such party shall provide a report on assessment of compliance pursuant to this Section 3.21, or the relevant section of such other applicable agreement, notwithstanding any such termination, assignment or resignation.

(b) By March 15^th (with no cure period) of each year, commencing in March 2007, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Custodian, each at its own expense, shall cause, and each such party shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to cause, each at its own expense, a registered public accounting firm (which may also render other services to the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Custodian, or such other Servicing Function Participants, as the case may be) and that is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish an attestation report to the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, to the effect that (i) it has obtained a representation regarding certain matters from the management of such party, which includes an assertion that such party has complied with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, and (ii) on the basis of an examination conducted by such firm in accordance with standards for attestation engagements issued or adopted by the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board, it is expressing an opinion as to whether such party’s compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria was fairly stated in all material respects, or it cannot express an overall opinion regarding such party’s assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria. In the event that an overall opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public accounting firm shall state in such report why it was unable to express such an opinion. Such report must be available for general use and not contain restricted use language.

Promptly after receipt of each such assessment of compliance and attestation report, the Trust Administrator shall confirm that each assessment submitted pursuant to Section 3.21(a) is coupled with an attestation meeting the requirements of this Section and notify the Depositor of any exceptions.

The Master Servicer shall include each such attestation furnished to it by the Servicers with its own attestation to be submitted to the Trust Administrator pursuant to this Section.

In the event the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Custodian, or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by any such party, is terminated, assigns its rights and duties under, or resigns pursuant to the terms of, this Agreement, or any applicable custodial agreement, Servicing Agreement or sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be, such party shall cause a registered public accounting firm to provide an attestation pursuant to this Section 3.21(b), or the relevant section of such other applicable agreement, notwithstanding any such termination, assignment or resignation.

(c) Failure of the Servicer to timely comply with this Section 3.21 shall be deemed a Servicer Event of Default, and upon written receipt of notice (which notice may be delivered electronically) from the Trust Administrator of such Servicer Event of Default, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as applicable, at the direction of the Depositor may, in addition to whatever rights the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as applicable, may have under this Agreement and at law or in equity, including injunctive relief and specific performance, upon notice immediately terminate (as provided in Section 7.01(a)) all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof without compensating the Servicer for the same (other than the Servicer’s rights to reimbursement of unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances and accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees in the manner provided in this Agreement). This paragraph shall supersede any other provision in this Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary.

Each of the Servicer, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator shall indemnify and hold harmless the Custodian, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator and its respective officers, directors and Affiliates from and against any actual losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses that such Person may sustain based upon a breach of the obligations of such Indemnifying Party under this Section 3.21.

The parties hereto acknowledge that the Custodian shall be required to comply with the provisions of this Section 3.21 only for so long as the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements.

The Custodian shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator and their respective officers, directors and Affiliates of the Depositor from and against any actual losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other reasonable costs and expenses that such Person may sustain based upon a failure of the Custodian to deliver when required an Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report in accordance with the requirements of this Section 3.21.

If the indemnifications provided for herein are unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any indemnified party, then the indemnifying party agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of any claims, losses, damages or liabilities incurred by such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such indemnified party on the one hand and the indemnifying party on the other. This indemnification shall survive the termination of this Agreement or the termination of the indemnifying party.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Custodian be liable for any consequential, indirect or punitive damages pursuant to this Section 3.21.

SECTION 3.22. Access to Certain Documentation.

The Servicer shall provide to the Office of the Controller of the Currency, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC, and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificateholder, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable laws and regulations. Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it. In addition, access to the documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans required by applicable laws and regulations will be provided to such Certificateholder, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer and to any Person identified to the Servicer as a prospective transferee of a Certificate subject to the execution of a confidentiality agreement in form and substance satisfactory to the servicer, upon reasonable request during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer designated by it at the expense of the Person requesting such access. Nothing in this Section 3.22 shall derogate from the obligation of any such party to observe any applicable law prohibiting disclosure of information regarding the Mortgagors and the failure of any such party to provide access as provided in this Section as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a breach of this Section 3.22.

SECTION 3.23. Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

(a) In the event that title to an REO Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken (pursuant to a limited power of attorney to be provided by the Trustee to the Servicer) in the name of the Trustee or a nominee thereof, on behalf of the Certificateholders, or in the event the Trustee or a nominee thereof is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from an attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. Any Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the benefit of the Trustee. The Trustee’s name shall be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee hereunder and not in its individual capacity. The Servicer shall ensure that the title to such REO Property references this Agreement and the Trustee’s capacity hereunder. The Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall either sell any REO Property before the close of the third taxable year following the year the Trust Fund acquires ownership of such REO Property for purposes of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or request from the Internal Revenue Service, no later than 60 days before the day on which the above three-year grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of the above three-year grace period, unless the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Depositor an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such REO Property subsequent to the close of the third taxable year after its acquisition will not result in the imposition on the Trust Fund of taxes on “prohibited transactions” thereof, as defined in Section 860F of the Code, or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under Federal law at any time that any Certificates are outstanding. The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Certificateholders solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by any Trust REMIC of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code, or any “net income from foreclosure property” which is subject to taxation under the REMIC Provisions.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Notwithstanding the foregoing, none of the Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee shall:

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

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

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

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

unless, in any such case, the Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel, provided to the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the at any time that it is held by the Trust Fund, in which case the Servicer may take such actions as are specified in such Opinion of Counsel.

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

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

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

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

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

The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Independent Contractor performing services for it related to its duties and obligations hereunder for indemnification of the Servicer by such Independent Contractor, and nothing in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any such Independent Contractor, irrespective of whether the Servicer’s compensation pursuant to Section 3.18 is sufficient to pay such fees.

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

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

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

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

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

The Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Administrator for deposit into the Distribution Account on the Servicer Remittance Date from its own funds (or from a Sub-Servicer’s own funds received by the Servicer in respect of Compensating Interest) an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate of the Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for the related Distribution Date resulting from full or partial Principal Prepayments during the related Prepayment Period and (ii) the aggregate compensation payable to the Servicer for the related collection period pursuant to Section 3.18 (the “Compensating Interest Payment”).

SECTION 3.25. Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Monthly Payments.

In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with respect to any Mortgage Loan results from or is attributable to adjustments to Mortgage Rates, Monthly Payments or Stated Principal Balances that were made by the Servicer in a manner not consistent with the terms of the related Mortgage Note and this Agreement, the Servicer, upon discovery or receipt of notice thereof, immediately shall deliver to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account from its own funds the amount of any such shortfall and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Depositor and any successor servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities shall survive the termination or discharge of this Agreement. If amounts paid by the Servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.25 are subsequently recovered from the related Mortgagor, the Servicer shall be permitted to reimburse itself for such amounts paid by it pursuant to this Section 3.25 from such recoveries.

SECTION 3.26. Advance Facility

(a) Either (i) the Servicer or (ii) the Trust Administrator, on behalf of the Trust Fund, with the consent of and at the direction of the Servicer, is hereby authorized to enter into a facility with any Person which provides that such Person (an “Advancing Person”) may fund Advances and/or Servicing Advances to the Trust Fund under this Agreement, although no such facility shall reduce or otherwise affect the Servicer’s obligation to fund such Advances and/or Servicing Advances. If the Servicer enters into such an Advance Facility pursuant to this Section 3.26, upon reasonable request of the Advancing Person, the Trust Administrator shall execute a letter of acknowledgment, confirming its receipt of notice of the existence of such Advance Facility. If the Trust Administrator enters into such an Advance Facility pursuant to this Section 3.26, the Servicer shall also be a party to such Advance Facility. To the extent that an Advancing Person funds any Advance or any Servicing Advance and provides the Trust Administrator with notice acknowledged by the Servicer that such Advancing Person is entitled to reimbursement, such Advancing Person shall be entitled to receive reimbursement pursuant to this Agreement for such amount to the extent provided in Section 3.26(b). Such notice from the Advancing Person must specify the amount of the reimbursement, the Section of this Agreement that permits the applicable Advance or Servicing Advance to be reimbursed and the section(s) of the Advance Facility that entitle the Advancing Person to request reimbursement from the Trust Administrator, rather than the Servicer, and include the Servicer’s acknowledgment thereto or proof of an Event of Default under the Advance Facility. The Trust Administrator shall have no duty or liability with respect to any calculation of any reimbursement to be paid to an Advancing Person and shall be entitled to rely without independent investigation on the Advancing Person’s notice provided pursuant to this Section 3.26. An Advancing Person whose obligations hereunder are limited to the funding of Advances and/or Servicing Advances shall not be required to meet the qualifications of a Servicer or a Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.02 hereof and will not be deemed to be a Sub-Servicer under this Agreement.

(b) If an advancing facility is entered into, then the Servicer shall not be permitted to reimburse itself therefor under Section 3.11(a)(ii), Section 3.11(a)(iii) and Section 3.11(a)(vi) prior to the remittance to the Trust Fund, but instead the Servicer shall include such amounts in the applicable remittance to the Trust Administrator made pursuant to Section 3.11(a). The Trust Administrator is hereby authorized to pay to the Advancing Person, reimbursements for Advances and Servicing Advances from the Distribution Account to the same extent the Servicer would have been permitted to reimburse itself for such Advances and/or Servicing Advances in accordance with Section 3.11(a)(ii), Section 3.11(a)(iii) and Section 3.11(a)(vi), as the case may be, had the Servicer itself funded such Advance or Servicing Advance. The Trust Administrator is hereby authorized to pay directly to the Advancing Person such portion of the Servicing Fee as the parties to any advancing facility agree in writing.

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

(d) Any amendment to this Section 3.26 or to any other provision of this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an Advance Facility as described generally in this Section 3.26, including amendments to add provisions relating to a successor servicer, may be entered into by the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Servicer without the consent of any Certificateholder, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement.

SECTION 3.27. Late Remittance.

With respect to any remittance received by the Master Servicer after the day on which such payment was due, the Servicer shall pay to the Master Servicer interest on any such late payment at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted as of the date of each change, plus three percentage points, but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall be deposited in the Distribution Account by the Servicer on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period commencing with the day such payment was due and ending with the Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. Such interest shall be remitted along with the distribution payable on the next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date. The payment by the Servicer of any such interest shall not be deemed an extension of time for payment or a waiver of any Servicer Event of Default.

SECTION 3.28. Transfer of Servicing for Certain Mortgage Loans.

New Century Mortgage Corporation shall be the Servicer of the Mortgage Loans originated by New Century Mortgage Corporation through and including June 30, 2006 and shall service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, including, but not limited to, the obligation to pay amounts in respect of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls (as set forth in Section 3.24) and to make Advances and Servicing Advances (as set forth in Section 4.03) and in accordance with customary industry procedures and all reporting requirements applicable to the Servicer (as set forth in Sections 3.20, 3.21 and 4.06).

ARTICLE IIIA

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING

OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

SECTION 3A.01. Master Servicer to Act as Master Servicer

The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the obligation of the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall oversee and consult with the Servicer as reasonably necessary from time-to-time to carry out the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder, shall receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer by the Servicer and shall cause the Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by the Servicer under this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall independently monitor the Servicer’s servicing activities with respect to each Mortgage Loan, reconcile the results of such monitoring with such information provided in the previous sentence on a monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the Servicer’s and Master Servicer’s records, and based on such reconciled and corrected information, the Master Servicer shall provide such information to the Trust Administrator as shall be necessary in order for it to prepare the statements specified in Section 4.02, and prepare any other information and statements required to be forwarded by the Master Servicer hereunder. The Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual remittances of the Servicer to the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.10.

The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer and the Master Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer and the Master Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties.

The Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall provide access to the records and documentation in possession of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, regarding the Mortgage Loans and REO Properties and the servicing thereof to the Certificateholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the FDIC, such access being afforded only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the office of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable; provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by law, neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be required to provide access to such records and documentation if the provision thereof would violate the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor. The Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall allow representatives of the above entities to photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that covers the Trustee’s or Trust Administrator’s, as applicable, actual costs.

The Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer and the Master Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary or desirable to (i) the foreclosure or trustee’s sale with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment against the Mortgagor; or (iv) enforce any other rights or remedies provided by the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise available at law or equity.

SECTION 3A.02. [Reserved].

SECTION 3A.03. Monitoring of Servicer.

The Master Servicer shall be responsible for reporting to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Depositor the non-compliance by the Servicer with its duties under this Agreement. In the review of the Servicer’s activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an Officers’ Certificate of the Servicer (or similar document signed by a Servicing Officer of the Servicer) with regard to the Servicer’s compliance with the terms of this Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its good faith judgment, determines that the Servicer should be terminated in accordance with the terms hereof, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to the terms hereof with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall issue such notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate.

The Master Servicer (or if the Master Servicer is the Servicer, the Trustee), for the benefit of the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, and shall, in the event that it receives notice and confirms that the Servicer has failed to perform its obligations in accordance with this Agreement, subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder and in accordance with the provisions of Article VII of this Agreement and act as Servicer of the Mortgage Loans or appoint a successor servicer; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the actual servicing functions can be fully transferred to such successor servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, provided that the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall not be required to prosecute or defend any legal action except to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action.

To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer or Trustee, as applicable, related to any termination of the Servicer, appointment of a successor servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, with respect to this Agreement (including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses and all due diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the potential termination of the Servicer as a result of a Servicer Event of Default and (ii) all costs and expenses associated with the complete transfer of servicing, including all servicing files and all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the successor servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the successor servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement) are not fully and timely reimbursed by the terminated Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Distribution Account.

The Master Servicer (or if the Master Servicer is the Servicer, the Trustee) shall, upon receipt from the Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Trust Administrator, of notice of any failure of the Servicer to comply with the remittance requirements and other obligations set forth in this Agreement, enforce such obligations.

If the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, acts as Servicer, it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of the Servicer that it replaces.

SECTION 3A.04. Fidelity Bond.

The Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording coverage with respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons acting on such Master Servicer’s behalf, and covering errors and omissions in the performance of the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder. The errors and omissions insurance policy and the fidelity bond shall be in such form and amount generally acceptable for entities serving as master servicer.

SECTION 3A.05. Power to Act; Procedures.

The Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of Article X hereof, to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not (and, consistent with its responsibilities under Article X, shall not permit any Servicer to) knowingly or intentionally take any action, or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action reasonably within its control and the scope of duties more specifically set forth herein, that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, would cause the Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) unless the Master Servicer has received an Opinion of Counsel (but not at the expense of the Master Servicer) to the effect that the contemplated action would not cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of a tax upon any REMIC. The Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer or the Servicer, upon written request from a Servicing Officer, with any powers of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or the Servicer to execute and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with this Agreement, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, to enable the Master Servicer to master service and administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case in accordance with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Trustee shall have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Trustee has been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is to be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Trustee or that the Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 8.10 hereof. In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an independent contractor and shall not, except in those instances where it is taking action in the name of the Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the Trustee.

SECTION 3A.06. Due on Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.

To the extent Mortgage Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master Servicer shall cause the Servicer to enforce such clauses in accordance with this Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with this Agreement, and, as a consequence, a Mortgage Loan is assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance with this Agreement.

SECTION 3A.07. [Reserved].

SECTION 3A.08. Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer to be Held for Trustee.

The Master Servicer and the Servicer shall transmit to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) such documents and instruments coming into the possession of the Master Servicer or the Servicer from time to time as are required by the terms hereof to be delivered to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Custodian. Any funds received by the Master Servicer or by the Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loan or which otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer or by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan shall be held for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders subject to the Master Servicer’s right to retain its Master Servicing Fee or withdraw from the Distribution Account the Master Servicing Compensation and other amounts provided in this Agreement, and to the right of the Servicer to retain its Servicing Fee and other amounts as provided in this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, and subject to Section 3.22 shall cause the Servicer to, provide access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans to the Trust Administrator, its agents and accountants at any time upon reasonable request and during normal business hours, and to Certificateholders that are savings and loan associations, banks or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of such Office and Corporation or examiners of any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority if so required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or other regulatory authority, such access to be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request in writing and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In fulfilling such a request the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for determining the sufficiency of such information.

All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the Master Servicer or the Servicer, in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, for and on behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Trustee; provided, however, that the Master Servicer and the Servicer shall be entitled to setoff against, and deduct from, any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer or the Servicer under this Agreement.

SECTION 3A.09. Compensation for the Master Servicer.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to the Master Servicing Fee with respect to each Mortgage Loan payable solely from payments of interest in respect of such Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer will also be entitled to all income and gain realized from any investment of funds in the Distribution Account, pursuant to Section 3A.11 and Section 3A.12, for the performance of its activities hereunder (the “Master Servicing Compensation”). Servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, if any, late payment charges, as collected, if any, or otherwise shall be retained by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.18. The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with the performance of its duties hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as provided in this Agreement.

SECTION 3A.10. Obligations of the Master Servicer in Respect of Prepayment Interest Shortfalls.

In the event of a Prepayment Interest Shortfall, the Master Servicer shall remit to the Trust Administrator, from its own funds and without right of reimbursement (except as described below), not later than the related Distribution Date, Compensating Interest in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate amounts in respect of Compensating Interest required to be paid by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.24 with respect to Prepayment Interest Shortfalls attributable to Principal Prepayments in full on the Mortgage Loans for the related Distribution Date and not so paid by the Servicer and (ii) the aggregate compensation payable to the Master Servicer for the related collection period under this Agreement. In the event the Master Servicer pays any amount in respect of such Compensating Interest prior to the time it shall have succeeded as successor servicer, the Master Servicer shall be subrogated to the Trust Fund’s right to receive such amount from the Servicer. In the event the Trust Fund receives from the Servicer all or any portion of amounts in respect of Compensating Interest required to be paid by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.24, not so paid by the Servicer when required, and paid by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 3A.10, then the Master Servicer may reimburse itself for the amount of Compensating Interest paid by the Master Servicer from such receipts by the Trust Fund.

SECTION 3A.11. Distribution Account.

On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Trust Administrator shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the “Distribution Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders. The Distribution Account shall be an Eligible Account. The Master Servicer will deposit in the Distribution Account as identified by the Master Servicer and as received by the Master Servicer, the following amounts:

(1) Any amounts remitted to the Master Servicer by the Servicer from the Collection Account;

(2) Any Advances received from the Servicer or made by the Master Servicer or (if the Master Servicer is the Servicer) the Trustee (in each case in its capacity as successor servicer), and any payments of Compensating Interest received from the Servicer or made by the Master Servicer (unless, in the case of the Master Servicer, such amounts are deposited by the Master Servicer directly into the Distribution Account);

(3) Any Insurance Proceeds or Net Liquidation Proceeds received by or on behalf of the Master Servicer or which were not deposited in the Collection Account;

(4) Any amounts required to be deposited with respect to losses on investments of deposits in the Distribution Account; and

(5) Any other amounts received by or on behalf of the Master Servicer and required to be deposited in the Distribution Account pursuant to this Agreement.

Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates of such Class on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust by the Trust Administrator and credited to the account of the appropriate non-tendering Holder or Holders. If any Certificates as to which notice has been given pursuant to this Section 4.01(e) shall not have been surrendered for cancellation within six months after the time specified in such notice, the Trust Administrator shall mail a second notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation in order to receive the final distribution with respect thereto. If within one year after the second notice all such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trust Administrator shall, directly or through an agent, mail a final notice to the remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates but shall continue to hold any remaining funds for the benefit of non-tendering Certificateholders. The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in the Trust Fund. If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trust Administrator shall pay to UBS Securities LLC all such amounts, and all rights of non-tendering Certificateholders in or to such amounts shall thereupon cease. No interest shall accrue or be payable to any Certificateholder on any amount held in trust by the Trust Administrator as a result of such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for final payment thereof in accordance with this Section 4.01(d). Any such amounts held in trust by the Trust Administrator shall be held in an Eligible Account and the Trust Administrator may direct any depository institution maintaining such account to invest the funds in one or more Permitted Investments. All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in such accounts held in trust by the Trust Administrator shall be for the benefit of the Trust Administrator; provided, however, that the Trust Administrator shall deposit in such account the amount of any loss of principal incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment made with funds in such accounts immediately upon the realization of such loss.

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

Parties that are unable to use the above distribution options are entitled to have a paper copy mailed to them via first class mail by calling the customer service desk and indicating such. The Trust Administrator shall have the right to change the way such statements are distributed in order to make such distribution more convenient and/or more accessible to the above parties and the Trust Administrator shall provide timely and adequate notification to all above parties regarding any such changes. As a condition to access the Trust Administrator’s internet website, the Trust Administrator may require registration and the acceptance of a disclaimer. The Trust Administrator will not be liable for the dissemination of information in accordance with this Agreement. The Trust Administrator shall also be entitled to rely on but shall not be responsible for the content or accuracy of any information provided by third parties for purposes of preparing the distribution date statement and may affix thereto any disclaimer it deems appropriate in its reasonable discretion (without suggesting liability on the part of any other party thereto).

In the case of information furnished pursuant to subclauses (i) through (iii) above, the amounts shall be expressed as a dollar amount per Single Certificate of the relevant Class.

Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Trust Administrator shall, upon written request, forward to each Person who at any time during the calendar year was a Holder of a Regular Certificate and the NIMS Insurer a statement containing the information set forth in subclauses (i) through (iii) above, aggregated for such calendar year or applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder. Such obligation of the Trust Administrator shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be provided by the Trust Administrator pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.

Within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Trust Administrator shall furnish to each Person who at any time during the calendar year was a Holder of a Residual Certificate and the NIMS Insurer a statement setting forth the amount, if any, actually distributed with respect to the Residual Certificates, as appropriate, aggregated for such calendar year or applicable portion thereof during which such Person was a Certificateholder.

The Trust Administrator shall, upon request, furnish to each Certificateholder and the NIMS Insurer, during the term of this Agreement, such periodic, special, or other reports or information, whether or not provided for herein, as shall be reasonable with respect to the Certificateholder, or otherwise with respect to the purposes of this Agreement, all such reports or information to be provided at the expense of the Certificateholder in accordance with such reasonable and explicit instructions and directions as the Certificateholder may provide.

If on any Distribution Date after December 2006, the Significance Percentage is greater than 10%, the Trust Administrator shall include the Significance Percentage on the statement to Certificateholders for the related Distribution Date.

The Trust Administrator shall calculate the Significance Percentage in accordance with the definition of “Significance Percentage” as set forth herein.

SECTION 4.03. Remittance Reports, Advances.

(a) On the 10th day of each calendar month (or, if such 10th day is not a Business Day, then on the next succeeding Business Day), the Servicer shall furnish to the Trust Administrator a monthly remittance advice (which together with any supplemental reports is known as the “Remittance Report”) in a format attached as Exhibit R-2 or in any other format as mutually agreed to between the Servicer and the Trust Administrator, containing such information regarding the Mortgage Loans as is needed by the Trust Administrator to perform its duties as set forth in Section 4.01 and 4.02 hereof. Such Remittance Report will also include a delinquency report substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit R-1 and a realized loss report substantially in the form set forth in Exhibit R-3 (or in either case, such other format as mutually agreed to between the Servicer and the Trust Administrator). No later than 3 Business Days after the 15th day of each calendar month, the Servicer shall furnish to the Trust Administrator a monthly report containing such information regarding prepayments in full on Mortgage Loans during the applicable Prepayment Period in a format as mutually agreed to between the Servicer and the Trust Administrator. The Trust Administrator shall, on behalf of the Servicer, on such date furnish a copy of the Remittance Report to the Credit Risk Manager by such means as the Trust Administrator shall agree from time to time. The Trust Administrator shall not be responsible to recompute, recalculate or verify any information provided to it by the Servicer.

(b) With respect to any Mortgage Loan on which a Monthly Payment was due during the related Due Period and delinquent on the related Determination Date, the amount of the Servicer’s Advance will be equal to the Monthly Payment (net of the related Servicing Fee) that would have been due on the related Due Date in respect of the related Mortgage Loan. With respect to each REO Property, which REO Property was acquired during or prior to the related Prepayment Period and as to which such REO Property an REO Disposition did not occur during the related Prepayment Period, an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Monthly Payment (net of the related Servicing Fee) that would have been due on the related Due Date in respect of the related Mortgage Loan, over the net income from such REO Property deposited in the Collection Account pursuant to Section 3.23 for distribution on such Distribution Date.

On the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit in immediately available funds to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the aggregate amount of Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans serviced by it for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of funds held therein for future distribution (in which case it will cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of the Collection Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this Section 4.03, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans serviced by it. Any amounts held for future distribution used by a Servicer to make an Advance as permitted in the preceding sentence shall be appropriately reflected in such Servicer’s records and replaced by such Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Funds for the related Distribution Date (determined without regard to Advances to be made on the Servicer Remittance Date) shall be less than the total amount that would be distributed to the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 4.01 on such Distribution Date if such amounts held for future distributions had not been so used to make Advances. The Trust Administrator will provide notice to a Servicer no later than the close of business of the Servicer Remittance Date via email to the appropriate investor reporting contact of the Servicer (as well as the manager of the Servicer’s investor reporting group) in the event that the amount remitted by such Servicer to the Trust Administrator on such date is less than the Advances required to be made by such Servicer for the related Distribution Date.

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

(d) Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Advance or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Servicer if such Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively. The determination by a Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable Advance or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed Advance or Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively, shall be evidenced by a certification of a Servicing Officer of the Servicer delivered to the Trust Administrator (whereupon, upon receipt of such certification, the Trust Administrator shall forward a copy of such certification to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Credit Risk Manager). Notwithstanding the foregoing, if following the application of Liquidation Proceeds on any Mortgage Loan that was the subject of a Final Recovery Determination, any Servicing Advance with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall remain unreimbursed to the Servicer, then without limiting the provisions of Section 3.11(a), a certification of a Servicing Officer of such Servicer regarding such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall not be required to be delivered by such Servicer to the Trust Administrator.

(e) In the event the Servicer fails to make any Advance required to be made by it pursuant to this Section 4.03 and such failure is not remedied within the applicable cure period pursuant to Section 7.01(a), then, pursuant to Section 7.01(a), the Servicer will be terminated, and, in accordance with Sections 7.01(a) and 7.02, the Master Servicer or (if the Master Servicer is the Servicer) the Trustee (in its respective capacity as successor servicer) or another successor servicer shall be required to make such Advance on the Distribution Date with respect to which the Servicer was required to make such Advance, subject to the Master Servicer’s of the Trustee’s (or other successor servicer’s) determination of recoverability. None of the Master Servicer, the Servicer or the Trustee (or other successor servicer) shall be required to make any Advance to cover any Relief Act Interest Shortfall on any Mortgage Loan. If the Master Servicer (or other successor servicer) is required to make any Advances, such Advances may be made by it in the manner set forth under (b) above.

SECTION 4.04. Allocation of Realized Losses.

(a) Prior to each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine as to each Mortgage Loan and REO Property serviced by it: (i) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Final Recovery Determinations made during the related Prepayment Period; (ii) whether and the extent to which such Realized Losses constituted Bankruptcy Losses; and (iii) the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and allocable to principal. Prior to each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall also determine as to each Mortgage Loan: (A) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Deficient Valuations made during the related Prepayment Period; and (B) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with Debt Service Reductions in respect of Monthly Payments due during the related Due Period. The information described in the two preceding sentences that is to be supplied by the Servicer shall be either included in the related Remittance Report (in form and format reasonably required and mutually agreed upon by Servicer and Master Servicer) or evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trust Administrator by the Servicer prior to the Determination Date immediately following the end of (x) in the case of Bankruptcy Losses allocable to interest, the Due Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred, and (y) in the case of all other Realized Losses, the Prepayment Period during which any such Realized Loss was incurred.

(b) All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trust Administrator on each Distribution Date as follows: first, to Net Monthly Excess Cashflow; second, to the Class CE Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; third, to the Class M-11 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Class M-10 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Class M-9 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the Class M-8 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Class M-7 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; eighth, to the Class M-6 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; ninth, to the Class M-5 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; tenth, to the Class M-4 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; eleventh, to the Class M-3 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; twelfth, to the Class M-2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; and thirteenth, to the Class M-1 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero. All Realized Losses to be allocated to the Certificate Principal Balances of all Classes on any Distribution Date shall be so allocated after the actual distributions to be made on such date as provided above. All references above to the Certificate Principal Balance of any Class of Certificates shall be to the Certificate Principal Balance of such Class immediately prior to the relevant Distribution Date, before reduction thereof by any Realized Losses, in each case to be allocated to such Class of Certificates, on such Distribution Date.

Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Mezzanine Certificate on any Distribution Date shall be made by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof by the amount so allocated; any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class CE Certificate shall be made by reducing the amount otherwise payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(5)(iv). No allocations of any Realized Losses shall be made to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Class A Certificates or the Class P Certificates.

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

(c) With respect to the REMIC I Regular Interests, all Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trust Administrator on each Distribution Date first, to REMIC I Regular Interest I until the Uncertificated Balance has been reduced to zero and then to REMIC I Regular Interest I-1-A through I-60-B, starting with the lowest numerical denomination until the Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC I Regular Interest is reduced to zero, provided that, for REMIC I Regular Interests with the same numerical denomination, such Realized Losses shall be allocated pro rata between such REMIC I Regular Interests.

(d) With respect to the REMIC II Regular Interests, all Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated by the Trust Administrator on each Distribution Date to the following REMIC II Regular Interests in the specified percentages, as follows: first, to Uncertificated Interest payable to the REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC II Interest Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively; second, to the Uncertificated Balances of the REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ up to an aggregate amount equal to the REMIC II Principal Loss Allocation Amount, 98% and 2%, respectively; third, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM11 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM11 has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM10 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM10 has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM9 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM9 has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM8 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM8 has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM7 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM7 has been reduced to zero; eighth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM6 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM6 has been reduced to zero; ninth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM5 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM5 has been reduced to zero; tenth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM4 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM4 has been reduced to zero; eleventh, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM3 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM3 has been reduced to zero; twelfth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM2 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM2 has been reduced to zero; and thirteenth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM1 and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM1 has been reduced to zero.

SECTION 4.05. Compliance with Withholding Requirements.

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

SECTION 4.06. Exchange Commission Filings; Additional Information.

(a) (i) Within 15 days after each Distribution Date (subject to permitted extensions under the Exchange Act), the Trust Administrator shall, in accordance with industry standards, prepare and file with the Commission via the Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System (“EDGAR”), a distribution report on Form 10-D, signed by the Master Servicer, with a copy of the Monthly Statement to be furnished by the Trust Administrator to the Certificateholders for such Distribution Date attached thereto. Any disclosure in addition to the Monthly Statement that is required to be included on Form 10-D (“Additional Form 10-D Disclosure”) shall be reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit P to the Depositor and the Trust Administrator and directed and approved by the Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph, and the Trust Administrator will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, except as set forth in the next paragraph.

(ii) As set forth on Exhibit P hereto, within 5 calendar days after the related Distribution Date, (i) the parties described on Exhibit P shall be required to provide to the Trust Administrator and to the Depositor, to the extent known by a Responsible Officer thereof, in EDGAR-compatible format, or in such other format as otherwise agreed upon by the Trust Administrator and such party, the form and substance of any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable, together with an Additional Disclosure Notification in the form of Exhibit Q hereto and (ii) the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D. The Trust Administrator has no duty under this Agreement to monitor or enforce the performance by the other parties listed on Exhibit P of their duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from such other parties any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure information. The Depositor will be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trust Administrator in connection with including any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D pursuant to this paragraph.

Form 10-D requires the registrant to indicate (by checking “yes” or “no”) that it “(1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days.” The Depositor hereby represents to the Trust Administrator that the Depositor has filed all such required reports during the preceding 12 months and that it has been subject to such filing requirement for the past 90 days. The Depositor shall notify the Trust Administrator in writing, no later than the fifth calendar day after the related Distribution Date with respect to the filing of a report on Form 10-D, if the answer to either question should be “no.” The Trust Administrator shall be entitled to rely on such representations in preparing, executing and/or filing any such report.

After preparing the Form 10-D, the Trust Administrator shall forward electronically a copy of the Form 10-D to the Depositor (provided that such Form 10-D includes any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure). Within two Business Days after receipt of such copy, but no later than the 12^th calendar day after the Distribution Date, the Depositor shall notify the Trust Administrator in writing (which may be furnished electronically) of any changes to or approval of such Form 10-D. In the absence of receipt of any written changes or approval, the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to assume that such Form 10-D is in final form and the Trust Administrator may proceed with the process for execution and filing of the Form 10-D. A duly authorized representative of the Master Servicer shall sign each Form 10-D. If a Form 10-D cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 10-D needs to be amended, the Trust Administrator will follow the procedures set forth in Section 4.06(a)(vi). Promptly (but no later than one Business Day) after filing with the Commission, the Trust Administrator will make available on its internet website a final executed copy of each Form 10-D filed by the Trust Administrator. Each party to this Agreement acknowledges that the performance by each of the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.06(a)(ii) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing of Form 10-D is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section 4.06(a)(ii). The Depositor acknowledges that the performance by each of the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its respective duties under this Section 4.06(a)(ii) related to the preparation and execution of Form 10-D is also contingent upon the Servicer, the Custodian and any Servicing Function Participant strictly observing deadlines no later than those set forth in this paragraph that are applicable to the parties to this Agreement in the delivery to the Trust Administrator of any necessary Additional Form 10-D Disclosure. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trust Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare or execute and/or timely file such Form 10-D, where such failure results from the Trust Administrator’s inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from any other party hereto or any Servicing Function Participant needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 10-D, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Trust Administrator shall promptly notify the Depositor if a Form 10-D cannot be timely filed prior to the related filing deadline.

(iii) Within four (4) Business Days after the occurrence of an event requiring disclosure on Form 8-K (each such event, a “Reportable Event”), and if requested by the Depositor, the Trust Administrator shall prepare and file on behalf of the Trust a Form 8-K, as required by the Exchange Act, provided that the Depositor shall file the initial Form 8-K in connection with the issuance of the Certificates. Any disclosure or information related to a Reportable Event or that is otherwise required to be included on Form 8-K (other than the initial Form 8-K) (“Form 8-K Disclosure Information”) shall be reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit P and, pursuant to the following paragraph, directed and approved by the Depositor, and the Trust Administrator will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Form 8-K Disclosure Information or Form 8-K, except as set forth in the next paragraph.

As set forth on Exhibit P hereto, for so long as the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, no later than close of business (New York City time) on the 2nd Business Day after the occurrence of a Reportable Event (i) the parties set forth on Exhibit P shall be required pursuant to Section 4.06(a)(v) below to provide to the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, to the extent known by a Responsible Officer thereof, in EDGAR-compatible format, or in such other format as otherwise agreed upon by the Trust Administrator, the Depositor and such party, the form and substance of any Form 8-K Disclosure Information, if applicable, together with an Additional Disclosure Notification and (ii) the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Form 8-K Disclosure Information on Form 8-K. The Depositor will be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trust Administrator in connection with including any Form 8-K Disclosure Information on Form 8-K pursuant to this Section.

After preparing the Form 8-K, the Trust Administrator shall forward electronically a copy of the Form 8-K to the Depositor. Promptly, but no later than the close of business on the third Business Day after the Reportable Event, the Depositor shall notify the Trust Administrator in writing (which may be furnished electronically) of any changes to or approval of such Form 8-K. In the absence of receipt of any written changes or approval, the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to assume that such Form 8-K is in final form and the Trust Administrator may proceed with the process for execution and filing of the Form 8-K. A duly authorized representative of the Master Servicer shall sign each Form 8-K. If a Form 8-K cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 8-K needs to be amended, the Trust Administrator will follow the procedures set forth in Section 4.06(a)(vi). Promptly (but no later than one Business Day) after filing with the Commission, the Trust Administrator will make available on its internet website a final executed copy of each Form 8-K filed by the Trust Administrator. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by each of the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.06(a)(iii) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing of Form 8-K is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section 4.06(a)(iii). The Depositor acknowledges that the performance by each of the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.06(a)(iii) related to the preparation, execution and filing of Form 8-K is also contingent upon the Servicer, the Custodian and any Servicing Function Participant strictly observing deadlines no later than those set forth in this paragraph that are applicable to the parties to this Agreement in the delivery to the Trust Administrator of any necessary Form 8-K Disclosure Information. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trust Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, execute or timely file such Form 8-K, where such failure results from the Trust Administrator’s inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from the Servicer, the Custodian or any Servicing Function Participant (other than any Servicing Function Participant engaged by the Master Servicer or Trust Administrator) needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 8-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Trust Administrator shall promptly notify the Depositor if a Form 8-K cannot be timely filed prior to the related filing deadline.

(iv) On or prior to the 90th day after the end of each fiscal year of the Trust or such earlier date as may be required by the Exchange Act (the “10-K Filing Deadline”) (it being understood that the fiscal year for the Trust ends on December 31st of each year), commencing in March 2007, the Trust Administrator shall prepare and file on behalf of the Trust a Form 10-K, in form and substance as required by the Exchange Act. Each such Form 10-K shall include the following items, in each case to the extent they have been delivered to the Trust Administrator within the applicable time frames set forth in this Agreement:

(a) an annual compliance statement for the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such parties (each, a “Reporting Servicer”) as described under Section 3.20 of this Agreement, provided, however, that the Trust Administrator, at its discretion, may omit from the Form 10-K any annual compliance statement that is not required to be filed with such Form 10-K pursuant to Regulation AB;

(b) (A) the annual reports on assessment of compliance with Servicing Criteria for each Reporting Servicer, as described under Section 3.21 of this Agreement and (B) if each Reporting Servicer’s report on assessment of compliance with Servicing Criteria identifies any material instance of noncompliance, disclosure identifying such instance of noncompliance, or if each Reporting Servicer’s report on assessment of compliance with Servicing Criteria is not included as an exhibit to such Form 10-K, disclosure that such report is not included and an explanation why such report is not included, provided, however, that the Trust Administrator, at its discretion, may omit from the Form 10-K any assessment of compliance or attestation report described in clause (c) below that is not required to be filed with such Form 10-K pursuant to Regulation AB;

(c) (A) the registered public accounting firm attestation report for each Reporting Servicer, as described under Section 3.21 of this Agreement and (B) if any registered public accounting firm attestation report identifies any material instance of noncompliance, disclosure identifying such instance of noncompliance, or if any such registered public accounting firm attestation report is not included as an exhibit to such Form 10-K, disclosure that such report is not included and an explanation why such report is not included; and

(d) a Sarbanes-Oxley Certification as described in this Section 4.06(a)(iv).

Any disclosure or information in addition to (a) through (d) above that is required to be included on Form 10-K (“Additional Form 10-K Disclosure”) shall be reported by the parties set forth on Exhibit P to the Depositor and the Trust Administrator and directed and approved by the Depositor pursuant to the following paragraph, and the Trust Administrator will have no duty or liability for any failure hereunder to determine or prepare any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, except as set forth in the next paragraph.

As set forth on Exhibit P hereto, no later than March 15^th (with no cure period) of each year that the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, commencing in 2007, (i) the parties described on Exhibit P shall be required to provide to the Trust Administrator and to the Depositor, to the extent known by a Responsible Officer thereof, in EDGAR-compatible format, or in such other format as otherwise agreed upon by the Trust Administrator and such party, the form and substance of any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, if applicable, together with an Additional Disclosure Notification, and (ii) the Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the inclusion of the Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K. The Trust Administrator has no duty under this Agreement to monitor or enforce the performance by the other parties listed on Exhibit P of their duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from such other parties any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure information. The Depositor will be responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or incurred by the Trust Administrator in connection with including any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure on Form 10-K pursuant to this paragraph.

Form 10-K requires the registrant to indicate (by checking “yes” or “no”) that it “(1) has filed all reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange Act during the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the registrant was required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to such filing requirements for the past 90 days.” The Depositor hereby represents to the Trust Administrator that the Depositor has filed all such required reports during the preceding 12 months and that it has been subject to such filing requirement for the past 90 days. The Depositor shall notify the Trust Administrator in writing, no later than March 15th with respect to the filing of a report on Form 10-K, if the answer to either question should be “no.” The Trust Administrator shall be entitled to rely on such representations in preparing, executing and/or filing any such report.

After preparing the Form 10-K, the Trust Administrator shall forward electronically a copy of the Form 10-K to the Depositor. Within three Business Days after receipt of such copy, but no later than March 25th, the Depositor shall notify the Trust Administrator in writing (which may be furnished electronically) of any changes to or approval of such Form 10-K. In the absence of receipt of any written changes or approval, the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to assume that such Form 10-K is in final form, and the Trust Administrator may proceed with the process for execution and filing of the Form 10-K. A senior officer of the Master Servicer in charge of the master servicing function shall sign the Form 10-K. If a Form 10-K cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 10-K needs to be amended, the Trust Administrator will follow the procedures set forth in Section 4.06(a)(vi). Promptly (but no later than one Business Day) after filing with the Commission, the Trust Administrator will make available on its internet website a final executed copy of each Form 10-K filed by the Trust Administrator. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by each of the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.04(a)(iv) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing of Form 10-K is contingent upon such parties strictly observing all applicable deadlines in the performance of their duties under this Section 4.04(a)(iv), Section 3.20 and Section 3.21. The Depositor acknowledges that the performance by each of the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.04(a)(iv) related to the timely preparation and execution of Form 10-K is also contingent upon the Servicer, the Custodian and any Servicing Function Participant strictly observing deadlines no later than those set forth in this paragraph that are applicable to the parties to this Agreement in the delivery to the Trust Administrator of any necessary Additional Form 10-K Disclosure, any annual statement of compliance and any assessment of compliance and attestation pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement, the custodial agreement or any other applicable agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trust Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, execute and/or timely file such Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Trust Administrator’s inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from the Servicer, the Custodian or any Servicing Function Participant needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct. Notwithstanding anything contained herein, the Trust Administrator shall promptly notify the Depositor if a Form 10-K cannot be timely filed prior to the related filing deadline.

Each Form 10-K shall include a Sarbanes-Oxley Certification, exactly as set forth in Exhibit J-1 attached hereto, required to be included therewith pursuant to the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Servicer and the Trust Administrator shall provide, and each such party shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to provide, to the Person who signs the Sarbanes-Oxley Certification (the “Certifying Person”), by March 15th (with no cure period) of each year in which the Trust is subject to the reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and otherwise within a reasonable period of time upon request, a certification (each, a “Back-Up Certification”), in the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-2, upon which the Certifying Person, the entity for which the Certifying Person acts as an officer, and such entity’s officers, directors and Affiliates (collectively with the Certifying Person, “Certification Parties”) can reasonably rely. The senior officer of the Master Servicer in charge of the master servicing function shall serve as the Certifying Person on behalf of the Trust. Such officer of the Certifying Person can be contacted by e-mail at cts.sec.notifications@wellsfargo.com or by facsimile at 410-715-2380. In the event any such party or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by such party is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be, such party shall provide a Back-Up Certification to the Certifying Person pursuant to this Section 4.06 (a)(iv) with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or any applicable sub-servicing agreement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, (i) the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator shall not be required to deliver a Back-Up Certification to each other if both are the same Person and the Master Servicer is the Certifying Person and (ii) the Master Servicer shall not be obligated to sign the Sarbanes-Oxley Certification in the event that it does not receive any Back-Up Certification required to be furnished to it pursuant to this section or any Servicing Agreement or custodial agreement.

(v) With respect to any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, Additional Form 10-K Disclosure or any Form 8-K Disclosure Information (collectively, the “Additional Disclosure”) relating to the Trust Fund, the Trust Administrator’s obligation to include such Additional Information in the applicable Exchange Act report is subject to its receipt of such information from the entity that is indicated in Exhibit P as the responsible party for providing such information, if other than the Trust Administrator, as and when required as described in Section 4.06(a)(ii) through (iv) above. Each of the Master Servicer, the Servicer and Depositor hereby agree to notify and to provide, to the extent known, to the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, all Additional Disclosure relating to the Trust Fund, with respect to which such party is the responsible party for providing that information, as indicated in Exhibit P hereof. The Swap Provider will be obligated pursuant to the Swap Agreement to provide to the Trust Administrator and the Depositor any information that may be required to be included in any Form 10-D, Form 8-K or Form 10-K. The Servicer shall be responsible for determining the pool concentration applicable to any Sub-Servicer or Originator at any time, for purposes of disclosure as required by Items 1108 and 1110 of Regulation AB.

(vi) On or prior to January 30 of the first year in which the Trust Administrator is able to do so under applicable law, the Trust Administrator shall prepare and file a Form 15 Suspension Notification relating to the automatic suspension of reporting in respect of the Trust under the Exchange Act.

In the event that the Trust Administrator is unable to timely file with the Commission all or any required portion of any Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to this Agreement because required disclosure information was either not delivered to it or was delivered to it after the delivery deadlines set forth in this Agreement or for any other reason, the Trust Administrator will promptly electronically notify the Depositor. In the case of Form 10-D and Form 10-K, the parties to this Agreement will cooperate to prepare and file a Form 12b-25 and a Form 10-D/A and Form 10-K/A as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of the Exchange Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Trust Administrator will, upon receipt of all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and upon the approval and direction of the Depositor, include such disclosure information on the next Form 10-D. In the event that any previously filed Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K needs to be amended in connection with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure (other than, in the case of Form 10-D, for the purpose of restating any Monthly Statement), Additional Form 10-K Disclosure or Form 8-K Disclosure Information, the Trust Administrator will electronically notify the Depositor and such other parties to the transaction as are affected by such amendment, and such parties will cooperate to prepare any necessary Form 8-K/A, Form 10-D/A or Form 10-K/A. Any Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K shall be signed by a duly authorized representative, or senior officer in charge of master servicing, as applicable, of the Master Servicer. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the performance by each of the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator of its duties under this Section 4.06(a)(vi) related to the timely preparation, execution and filing of Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K is contingent upon each such party performing its duties under this Section. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Trust Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense, damage or claim arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare, execute and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K, where such failure results from the Trust Administrator’s inability or failure to obtain or receive, on a timely basis, any information from the Servicer, the Custodian or any Servicing Function Participant needed to prepare, arrange for execution or file such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

The Depositor agrees to promptly furnish to the Trust Administrator, from time to time upon request, such further information, reports and financial statements within its control related to this Agreement, and the Mortgage Loans as the Trust Administrator reasonably deems appropriate to prepare and file all necessary reports with the Commission. The Trust Administrator shall have no responsibility to file any items other than those specified in this Section 4.06; provided, however, the Trust Administrator will cooperate with the Depositor in connection with any additional filings with respect to the Trust Fund as the Depositor deems necessary under the Exchange Act. Fees and expenses incurred by the Trust Administrator in connection with this Section 4.06 shall not be reimbursable from the Trust Fund.

(b) The Trust Administrator shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and its officers, directors and affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon (i) a breach of the Trust Administrator’s obligations under this Section 4.06 or the Trust Administrator’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith or (ii) any material misstatement or omission in the Annual Statement of Compliance and the Assessment of Compliance delivered by the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 3.20 and Section 3.21.

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

The Master Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Administrator and the Depositor and their respective 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 (i) a breach of the obligations of the Master Servicer under this Section 4.06 or the Master Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith or (ii) any material misstatement or omission in the Statement as to Compliance delivered by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.20 or the Assessment of Compliance delivered by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 3.21.

The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer, Trust Administrator and the Depositor and their respective 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 (i) a breach of the obligations of the Servicer under this Section 4.06 and (ii) any material misstatement or omission in the Annual Statement of Compliance delivered by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.20 or the Assessment of Compliance delivered by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.21.

Notwithstanding the provisions set forth in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be obligated to provide any indemnification or reimbursement hereunder to any other party for any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that any of them may sustain which are indirect, consequential, punitive or special in nature.

If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, then the defaulting party, in connection with a breach of its respective obligations under this Section 4.06 or its respective negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith, agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the other parties as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the other party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault and the relative benefit of the respective parties.

(c) Nothing shall be construed from the foregoing subsections (a) and (b) to require the Trust Administrator or any officer, director or Affiliate thereof to sign any Form 10-K or any certification contained therein. Furthermore, the inability of the Trust Administrator to file a Form 10-K as a result of the lack of required information as set forth in Section 4.06(a) or required signatures on such Form 10-K or any certification contained therein shall not be regarded as a breach by the Trust Administrator of any obligation under this Agreement.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Section 11.01, this Section 4.06 may be amended without the consent of the Certificateholders.

SECTION 4.07. Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.

No later than the Closing Date, the Trust Administrator shall establish and maintain with itself a separate, segregated trust account titled, “Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as Trust Administrator, in trust for the registered holders of MASTR Asset Backed Securities Trust 2006-WMC2, Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-HE2—Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.” All amounts deposited in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be distributed to the Holders of the Class A Certificates and/or the Mezzanine Certificates in the manner set forth in Section 4.01.

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

It is the intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state and local franchise tax purposes, the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account be disregarded as an entity separate from the Holder of the Class CE Certificates unless and until the date when either (a) there is more than one Class CE Certificateholder or (b) any Class of Certificates in addition to the Class CE Certificates is recharacterized as an equity interest in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account for federal income tax purposes, in which case it is the intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state and local franchise tax purposes, the Supplemental Interest Trust be treated as a grantor trust. All amounts deposited into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be treated as amounts distributed by REMIC III to the Holder of the Class CE Interest and by REMIC IV to the Holder of the Class CE Certificates. The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h). Upon the termination of the Trust, or the payment in full of the Class A and the Mezzanine Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be released by the Trust and distributed to the Seller or its designee. The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be part of the Trust but not part of any REMIC and any payments to the Holders of the Class A and the Mezzanine Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860(G)(a)(1).

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

SECTION 4.08. Swap Account.

(a) On the Closing Date, there is hereby established a separate trust (the “Supplemental Interest Trust”), into which the Depositor shall deposit: (i) the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and (ii) the Swap Administration Agreement. The Supplemental Interest Trust shall be maintained by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee. No later than the Closing Date, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall establish and maintain with itself a separate, segregated trust account titled, “Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, in trust for the registered holders of MASTR Asset Backed Securities Trust 2006-HE2, Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-HE2—Swap Account.” Such account shall be an Eligible Account and funds on deposit therein shall be held separate and apart from, and shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including, without limitation, other moneys of the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee held pursuant to this Agreement. Amounts therein shall be held uninvested.

(b) On each Distribution Date, prior to any distribution to any Certificate, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall deposit into the Swap Account: (i) the amount of any Net Swap Payment or Swap Termination Payment (other than any Swap Termination Payment resulting from a Swap Provider Trigger Event) owed to a Swap Provider (after taking into account any upfront payment received from the counterparty to a replacement interest rate swap agreement) from funds collected and received with respect to the Mortgage Loans prior to the determination of Available Funds and (ii) amounts received by the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee from a Swap Provider, for distribution pursuant to the Swap Administration Agreement, dated as of the Closing Date (the “Swap Administration Agreement”), among Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in its capacity as Swap Administrator, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. in its capacity as Trust Administrator and the Seller.

(c) The Supplemental Interest Trust will be an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h). It is the intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state and local franchise tax purposes, the Supplemental Interest Trust be disregarded as an entity separate from the Holder of the Class CE Certificates unless and until the date when either (a) there is more than one Class CE Certificateholder or (b) any Class of Certificates in addition to the Class CE Certificates is recharacterized as an equity interest in the Supplemental Interest Trust for federal income tax purposes, in which case it is the intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state and local franchise tax purposes, the Supplemental Interest Trust be treated as a grantor trust.

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

(e) The Trust Administrator shall treat the Holders of Certificates (other than the Class P, Class CE, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) as having entered into a notional principal contract with respect to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates. Pursuant to each such notional principal contract, all Holders of Certificates (other than the Class P, Class CE, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) shall be treated as having agreed to pay, on each Distribution Date, to the Holder of the Class CE Certificates an aggregate amount equal to the excess, if any, of (i) the amount payable on such Distribution Date on the REMIC III Regular Interest corresponding to such Class of Certificates over (ii) the amount payable on such Class of Certificates on such Distribution Date (such excess, a “Class IO Distribution Amount”). A Class IO Distribution Amount payable from interest collections shall be allocated pro rata among such Certificates based on the excess of (a) the amount of interest otherwise payable to such Certificates over (ii) the amount of interest payable to such Certificates at a per annum rate equal to the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate, and a Class IO Distribution Amount payable from principal collections shall be allocated to the most subordinate Class of Certificates with an outstanding principal balance to the extent of such balance. In addition, pursuant to such notional principal contract, the Holder of the Class CE Certificates shall be treated as having agreed to pay Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts to the Holders of the Certificates (other than the Class CE, Class P, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) in accordance with the terms of this Agreement. Any payments to the Certificates from amounts deemed received in respect of this notional principal contract shall not be payments with respect to a Regular Interest in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860G(a)(1). However, any payment from the Certificates (other than the Class CE, Class P, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) of a Class IO Distribution Amount shall be treated for tax purposes as having been received by the Holders of such Certificates in respect of their interests in REMIC III and as having been paid by such Holders to the Trust Administrator pursuant to the notional principal contract. Thus, each Certificate (other than the Class P, Class R and Class R-X Certificates) shall be treated as representing not only ownership of Regular Interests in REMIC III or REMIC IV, but also ownership of an interest in, and obligations with respect to, a notional principal contract.

(f) In connection with paragraph 7(i) of the credit support annex, upon the Swap Provider’s failure to post collateral with the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee (to the extent it has actual knowledge) shall provide, no later than the next Business Day after the date such collateral was required to be posted, to the Interest Rate Swap Provider a written notice of such failure.

SECTION 4.09. Tax Treatment of Swap Payments and Swap Termination Payments.

For federal income tax purposes, each holder of a Class A or Mezzanine Certificate is deemed to own an undivided beneficial ownership interest in a REMIC regular interest and the right to receive payments from either the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account or the Swap Account in respect of the Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount or the obligation to make payments to the Swap Account. For federal income tax purposes, the Trust Administrator will account for payments to each Class A and Mezzanine Certificates as follows: each Class A and Mezzanine Certificate will be treated as receiving their entire payment from REMIC III (regardless of any Swap Termination Payment or obligation under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) and subsequently paying their portion of any Swap Termination Payments in respect of each such Class’ obligation under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement. In the event that any such Class is resecuritized in a REMIC, the obligation under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to pay any such Swap Termination Payment (or any shortfall in Swap Provider Fee), will be made by one or more of the REMIC Regular Interests issued by the resecuritization REMIC subsequent to such REMIC Regular Interest receiving its full payment from any such Class A or Mezzanine Certificate. Resecuritization of any Class A or Mezzanine Certificate in a REMIC will be permissible only if the Trust Administrator hereunder is the trustee in such resecuritization.

The REMIC regular interest corresponding to a Class A or Mezzanine Certificate will be entitled to receive interest and principal payments at the times and in the amounts equal to those made on the certificate to which it corresponds, except that (i) the maximum interest rate of that REMIC regular interest will equal the Net WAC Pass-Through Rate computed for this purpose by limiting the Base Calculation Amount of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement to the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and (ii) any Swap Termination Payment will be treated as being payable solely from Net Monthly Excess Cashflow. As a result of the foregoing, the amount of distributions and taxable income on the REMIC regular interest corresponding to a Class A or Mezzanine Certificate may exceed the actual amount of distributions on the Class A or Mezzanine Certificate.

SECTION 4.10. Cap Account.

(a) No later than the Closing Date, the Trust Administrator shall establish and maintain with itself, a separate, segregated trust account titled, “Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee, in trust for the registered holders of MASTR Asset Backed Securities Trust 2006-HE2, Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-HE2—Cap Account.” Such account shall be an Eligible Account and amounts therein shall be held uninvested.

(b) On each Distribution Date, prior to any distribution to any Certificate, the Trust Administrator shall deposit into the Cap Account amounts received by the Trust Administrator under the Cap Contract for distribution in accordance with Section 4.01(h) above.

(c) It is the intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state and local franchise tax purposes, the Cap Account be disregarded as an entity separate from the Holder of the Class CE Certificates unless and until the date when either (a) there is more than one Class CE Certificateholder or (b) any Class of Certificates in addition to the Class CE Certificates is recharacterized as an equity interest in the Cap Account for federal income tax purposes, in which case it is the intention of the parties hereto that, for federal and state income and state and local franchise tax purposes, the Cap Account be treated as a grantor trust. The Cap Account will be an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h). Upon the termination of the Trust Fund, or the payment in full of the Class A Certificates and the Mezzanine Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Cap Account shall be released by the Trust Fund and distributed to the Class CE Certificateholders or their designees. The Cap Account shall be part of the Trust Fund but not part of any Trust REMIC and any payments to the Holders of the Floating Rate Certificates of Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts will not be payments with respect to a “regular interest” in a REMIC within the meaning of Code Section 860(G)(a)(1).

(d) By accepting a Class CE Certificate, each Class CE Certificateholder hereby agrees to direct the Trust Administrator, and the Trust Administrator is hereby directed, to deposit into the Cap Account the amounts described above on each Distribution Date.

(e) For federal income tax purposes, the Depositor shall provide the Trust Administrator, no later than September 1, 2006, the value of the right of the Class A and Mezzanine Certificates to receive Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts from the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account and the Swap Account.

THE CERTIFICATES

SECTION 5.01. The Certificates.

(a) The Certificates in the aggregate will represent the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans and all other assets included in REMIC I.

The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibits A-1 through A-20. The Certificates of each Class will be issuable in registered form only, in denominations of authorized Percentage Interests as described in the definition thereof. Each Certificate will share ratably in all rights of the related Class.

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

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

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

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

SECTION 5.02. Registration of Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.

(a) The Trust Administrator shall cause to be kept at one of the offices or agencies to be appointed by the Trust Administrator in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.11, a Certificate Register for the Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trustee shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.

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

Any Certificateholder desiring to effect the transfer of any such Certificate shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Depositor and the Master Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

In addition, no transfer of any Class CE Certificate shall be made unless the transferee of such Class CE Certificate provides to the Trust Administrator the appropriate tax certification form (i.e., IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY, or W-8ECI, as applicable (or any successor thereto)) as a condition to such transfer and agrees to update such forms (i) upon expiration of any such form, (ii) as required under then applicable U.S. Treasury Regulations and (iii) promptly upon learning that any IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY, or W-8ECI, as applicable (or any successor thereto), has become obsolete or incorrect. Upon receipt of any such tax certification form from a transferee of any Class CE Certificate, the Trust Administrator shall provide a copy of such tax certification form to the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee. The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall provide a copy of any such tax certification form to the Swap Provider.

(c) No transfer of a Private Certificate or any interest therein shall be made to any Plan, any Person acting, directly or indirectly, on behalf of any such Plan or any Person acquiring such Certificates with “Plan Assets” of a Plan within the meaning of the Department of Labor regulation promulgated at 29 C. F. R. § 2510.3-101 (“Plan Assets”), as certified by such transferee in the form of Exhibit G, unless the Trust Administrator is provided with an Opinion of Counsel for the benefit of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Servicer and on which they may rely which establishes to the satisfaction of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer and the Master Servicer that the purchase of such Certificates is permissible under applicable law, will not constitute or result in any prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trust Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Trustee or the Trust Fund. Neither an Opinion of Counsel nor any certification will be required in connection with the (i) the initial transfer of any Private Certificate by the Depositor to an Affiliate of the Depositor, (ii) the transfer of any Private Certificate to the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any Private Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee under the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor (in which case, the Transferee thereof shall have deemed to have represented that it is not a Plan or a Person investing Plan Assets) and the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to conclusively rely upon a representation (which, upon the request of the Trust Administrator, shall be a written representation) from the Transferor of the status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.

Any transferee of a Class A Certificate or Mezzanine Certificate acquired prior to the termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust shall be deemed to represent that either (i) it is not a Plan or purchasing with assets of a Plan or (ii)(A) such Plan is an accredited investor within the meaning of the Exemption and (B) such acquisition or holding is eligible for the exemptive relief available under Department of Labor Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption (“PTE”) 84-14, PTE 91-38, PTE 90-1, PTE 95-60 or PTE 96-23 or in the case of a Private Mezzanine Certificate, PTE 95-60.

Subsequent to the termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust, each beneficial owner of a Mezzanine Certificate or any interest therein shall be deemed to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of that certificate or interest therein, that either (i) it is not a Plan or investing with “Plan Assets,” (ii) other than in the case of of a Private Mezzanine Certificate, it has acquired and is holding such Mezzanine Certificate in reliance on the Exemption, and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Exemption, including that the Mezzanine Certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase not lower than “BBB-” (or its equivalent) by S&P, Moody’s or Fitch or (iii)(1) it is an insurance company, (2) the source of funds used to acquire or hold the certificate or interest therein is an “insurance company general account,” as such term is defined in PTE 95-60, and (3) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTE 95-60 have been satisfied.

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

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

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

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

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

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

Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the Trust Administrator written notice that it is a “pass-through interest holder” within the meaning of temporary Treasury regulation Section 1.67-3T(a)(2)(i)(A) immediately upon acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, if it is, or is holding an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate on behalf of, a “pass-through interest holder.”

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

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

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

(IV) The Trust Administrator shall make available to the Internal Revenue Service and those Persons specified by the REMIC Provisions all information necessary to compute any tax imposed (A) as a result of the Transfer of an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate to any Person who is a Disqualified Organization, including the information described in Treasury regulations sections 1.860D-1(b)(5) and 1.860E-2(a)(5) with respect to the “excess inclusions” of such Residual Certificate and (B) as a result of any regulated investment company, real estate investment trust, common Trust, partnership, trust, estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate having as among its record holders at any time any Person which is a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be accepted by the Trust Administrator.

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

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

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

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

(e) Subject to the preceding subsections, upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at any office or agency of the Trust Administrator maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.11, the Trust Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated Transferee or Transferees, one or more new Certificates of the same Class of a like aggregate Percentage Interest.

(f) At the option of the Holder thereof, any Certificate may be exchanged for other Certificates of the same Class with authorized denominations and a like aggregate Percentage Interest, upon surrender of such Certificate to be exchanged at any office or agency of the Trust Administrator maintained for such purpose pursuant to Section 8.11. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trust Administrator shall execute, authenticate and deliver, the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every Certificate presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so required by the Trust Administrator) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the Trust Administrator duly executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in writing. In addition, (i) with respect to each Class R Certificate, the holder thereof may exchange, in the manner described above, such Class R Certificate for three separate certificates, each representing such holder’s respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-I Interest, the Class R-II Interest and the Class R-III Interest, respectively, in each case that was evidenced by the Class R Certificate being exchanged and (ii) with respect to each Class R-X Certificate, the holder thereof may exchange, in the manner described above, such Class R-X Certificate for four separate certificates, each representing such holder’s respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-IV Interest, the Class R-V Interest, the Class R-VI Interest and the Class R-VII Interest, respectively, in each case that was evidenced by the Class R-X Certificate being exchanged.

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

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

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

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

SECTION 5.04. Persons Deemed Owners.

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

SECTION 5.05. Certain Available Information.

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

ARTICLE VI

THE DEPOSITOR AND THE MASTER SERVICER

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

The Depositor, the Servicer and the Master Servicer each shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed by this Agreement upon them in their respective capacities as Depositor, Servicer and Master Servicer and undertaken hereunder by the Depositor, the Servicer and the Master Servicer herein.

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

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

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

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

(a) The Servicer (but not the Trustee if it is required to succeed a Servicer after becoming Master Servicer hereunder) indemnifies and holds the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Depositor harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Depositor may sustain in any way related to the failure of Wells Fargo in its capcity as a Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

The Servicer shall immediately notify the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Depositor if a claim is made that may result in such claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees or related costs, judgments, or any other costs, fees and expenses, and the Servicer shall assume (with the consent of the Trust Administrator, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer and/or the Depositor in respect of such claim. The provisions of this Section 6.03 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the payment of the outstanding Certificates.

(b) The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Indemnified Persons for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred on their part that may be sustained in connection with, arising out of, or relating to, any claim or legal action (including any pending or threatened claim or legal action) relating to this Agreement or the Certificates or the powers of attorney delivered by the Trustee hereunder (i) related to the Master Servicer’s failure to perform its duties in compliance with this Agreement (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or (ii) incurred by reason of the Master Servicer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder, provided, in each case, that with respect to any such claim or legal action (or pending or threatened claim or legal action), the Trustee shall have given the Master Servicer and the Depositor written notice thereof promptly after the Trustee shall have with respect to such claim or legal action knowledge thereof. The Master Servicer’s failure to receive any such notice shall not affect any Indemnified Person’s right to indemnification under this Section 6.03(b), except to the extent the Master Servicer is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. This indemnity shall survive the resignation or removal of the Trustee, Master Servicer or the Trust Administrator and the termination of this Agreement. For purposes of this Section 6.03(b), “Indemnified Persons” means the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and their respective officers, directors, agents and employees and, with respect to the Trustee, any separate co-trustee and its officers, directors, agents and employees.

(c) None of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the Master Servicer or Servicer pursuant hereto, or 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, in the case of the Master Servicer, a breach of the servicing standard set forth in Section 3A.01 or in the case of the Servicer, a breach of the servicing standard set forth in Section 3.01. The Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which is, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, or the Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, or the Servicer shall be indemnified and held harmless by the Trust Fund against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with (i) any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense relating to any specific Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement) or any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder or (ii) any breach of a representation or warranty by the Originator or any other party regarding the Mortgage Loans. None of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Servicer shall be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action unless such action is related to its respective duties under this Agreement and, in its opinion, does not involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that each of the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Certificateholders hereunder. In such event, unless the Depositor, the Master Servicer or a Servicer, the Trust Administrator acts without the consent of Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights in the case of legal actions initiated by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or a Servicer, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom (except any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder) shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Fund, and the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor from the Collection Account or Distribution Account, as applicable, as and to the extent provided in Section 3.11 or Section 3A.12, any such right of reimbursement being prior to the rights of the Certificateholders to receive any amount in the Collection Account or Distribution Account. The Master Servicer’s, the Trust Administrator’s or Servicer’s right to indemnity or reimbursement pursuant to this Section shall survive any termination of this Agreement, any resignation or termination of the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or such Servicer pursuant to Section 6.04 or 7.01 with respect to any losses, expenses, costs or liabilities arising prior to such resignation or termination (or arising from events that occurred prior to such resignation or termination).

SECTION 6.04. Limitation on Resignation of the Servicer; Assignment of Master Servicing.

(a) Except as otherwise provided herein, the Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law. Any such determination pursuant to the preceding sentence permitting the resignation of a Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of such Servicer and delivered to the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer. No resignation of a Servicer shall become effective until the Master Servicer (or if the Master Servicer is the Servicer, the Trustee) or a successor servicer acceptable to the NIMS Insurer shall have assumed such Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations under this Agreement. Any such resignation shall not relieve the Servicer of responsibility for any of the obligations specified in Sections 7.01 and 7.02 as obligations that survive the resignation or termination of the Servicer.

Except as expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, or delegate to or subcontract with, or authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Servicer hereunder. The foregoing prohibition on assignment shall not prohibit a Servicer from designating a Sub-Servicer as payee of any indemnification amount payable to such Servicer hereunder; provided, however, that as provided in Section 3.06 hereof, no Sub-Servicer shall be a third-party beneficiary hereunder and the parties hereto shall not be required to recognize any Sub-Servicer as an indemnitee under this Agreement. If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Servicer are transferred to a successor servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such successor servicer.

(b) The Master Servicer may sell, assign or delegate its rights, duties and obligations as Master Servicer under this Agreement in their entirety; provided, however, that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such sale, assignment and delegation (a) shall be a Person qualified to service mortgage loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac; (b) shall have a net worth of not less than $50,000,000 (unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant to clause (ii) below); (c) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee (as evidenced in a writing signed by each of the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee); and (d) shall execute and deliver to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by it as master servicer under this Agreement from and after the effective date of such assumption agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency shall be given prior written notice of the identity of the proposed successor to the Master Servicer and shall confirm in writing to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee that any such sale, assignment or delegation would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrading of the rating on any Class of Certificates in effect immediately prior to such sale, assignment or delegation; and (iii) the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee an Officers’ Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel, each stating that all conditions precedent to such action under this Agreement have been fulfilled and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms of this Agreement. No such sale, assignment or delegation shall affect any liability of the Master Servicer arising prior to the effective date thereof.

SECTION 6.05. Successor Master Servicer.

In connection with the appointment of any successor Master Servicer or the assumption of the duties of the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor Master Servicer out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee and such successor Master Servicer shall agree. If the successor Master Servicer does not agree that such market value is a fair price, such successor Master Servicer shall obtain two quotations of market value from third parties actively engaged in the master servicing of single-family mortgage loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the compensation payable to a successor Master Servicer may not exceed the compensation which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to retain if the Master Servicer had continued to act as Master Servicer hereunder.

SECTION 6.06. Rights of the Depositor in Respect of the Servicer.

The Servicer shall afford (and any Sub-Servicing Agreement shall provide that each Sub-Servicer shall afford) the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee, upon five (5) Business Days prior notice, during normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Servicer (and any such Sub-Servicer) in respect of the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Servicer (and those of any such Sub-Servicer) responsible for such obligations. Upon request, the Servicer agrees that it shall furnish to the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee its (and any such Sub-Servicer’s) most recent financial statements and such other information relating to the Servicer’s capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement as it possesses (and that any such Sub-Servicer possesses). To the extent such information is not otherwise available to the public, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee shall not disseminate any information obtained pursuant to the preceding two sentences without the Servicer’s written consent, except as required pursuant to this Agreement or to the extent that it is appropriate to do so (i) in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies or (ii) pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor and the Trustee or the Trust Fund, and in any case, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as the case may be, shall use its best efforts to assure the confidentiality of any such disseminated non-public information.

The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of a Servicer under this Agreement or exercise the rights of a Servicer under this Agreement; provided that the Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations under this Agreement by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by a Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of a Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.

SECTION 6.07. [Reserved].

SECTION 6.08. Duties of the Credit Risk Manager.

For and on behalf of the Depositor, the Credit Risk Manager will provide reports and recommendations concerning certain delinquent and defaulted Mortgage Loans, and as to the collection of any Prepayment Charges with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Such reports and recommendations will be based upon information provided to the Credit Risk Manager pursuant to the respective Credit Risk Management Agreement, and the Credit Risk Manager shall look solely to the Servicer and/or Master Servicer, as applicable, for all information and data (including loss and delinquency information and data) relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans. Upon any termination of the Credit Risk Manager or the appointment of a successor Credit Risk Manager, the Depositor shall give written notice thereof to the Servicer, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator, the NIMS Insurer and each Rating Agency. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the termination of the Credit Risk Manager pursuant to this Section shall not become effective until the appointment of a successor Credit Risk Manager.

SECTION 6.09. Limitation Upon Liability of the Credit Risk Manager.

Neither the Credit Risk Manager, nor any of its directors, officers, employees, or agents shall be under any liability to the Trustee, the Certificateholders, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer, the Master Servicer or the Depositor for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action made in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, in reliance upon information provided by the Servicer or the Master Servicer under the related Credit Risk Management Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Credit Risk Manager or any such person against liability that would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful malfeasance or bad faith in its performance of its duties. The Credit Risk Manager and any director, officer, employee, or agent of the Credit Risk Manager may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder, and may rely in good faith upon the accuracy of information furnished by the Servicer or the Master Servicer pursuant to the related Credit Risk Management Agreement in the performance of its duties thereunder and hereunder.

SECTION 6.10. Removal of the Credit Risk Manager.

The Credit Risk Manager may be removed as Credit Risk Manager by Certificateholders holding not less than 66 2/3% of the Voting Rights in the Trust Fund, in the exercise of its or their sole discretion. The Certificateholders shall provide written notice of the Credit Risk Manager’s removal to the Trust Administrator. Upon receipt of such notice, the Trust Administrator shall provide written notice to the Credit Risk Manager of its removal, which shall be effective upon receipt of such notice by the Credit Risk Manager.

(ii) other than with respect to clause (vi) below, any failure on the part of the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer contained in this Agreement, or the breach by the Servicer of any representation and warranty contained in Section 2.05, which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days (or if such failure or breach cannot be remedied within 30 days, then such remedy shall have been commenced within 30 days and diligently pursued thereafter; provided, however, that in no event shall such failure or breach be allowed to exist for a period of greater than 90 days) after the earlier of (i) the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Depositor or the Trust Administrator or to the Servicer, the Depositor and the Trust Administrator by the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights and (ii) actual knowledge of such failure by a Servicing Officer of the Servicer; or

(iii) a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises in an involuntary case under any present or future federal or state bankruptcy, insolvency or similar law or the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceeding, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 90 days; or

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

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

(vi) any failure by the Servicer to timely comply with its obligations pursuant to Section 3.20, Section 3.21 or Section 4.06 hereof (in each case, taking into account any applicable cure periods);

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

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

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

(i) the Master Servicer fails to cause to be deposited in the Distribution Account any amount so required to be deposited pursuant to this Agreement (other than an Advance), and such failure continues unremedied for a period of three Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer; or

(ii) the Master Servicer fails to observe or perform in any material respect any other material covenants and agreements set forth in this Agreement to be performed by it, which covenants and agreements materially affect the rights of Certificateholders, and such failure continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, properly requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer or to the Master Servicer and the Trustee by the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 25% of the Voting Rights; or

(iii) there is entered against the Master Servicer 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 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 is unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days, or an involuntary case is commenced against the Master Servicer under any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute and the petition is not dismissed within 60 days after the commencement of the case; or

(iv) the Master Servicer consents to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or substantially all of its property; or the Master Servicer admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, files a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspends payment of its obligations; or

(v) the Master Servicer assigns or delegates its duties or rights under this Agreement in contravention of the provisions permitting such assignment or delegation under Section 6.05; or

(vi) any failure of the Master Servicer to make any Advance (other than a Nonrecoverable Advance) required to be made from its own funds pursuant to Section 4.03 by 5:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day prior to the applicable Distribution Date.

In each and every such case, so long as such Master Servicer Event of Default with respect to the Master Servicer shall not have been remedied, either the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or the Holders of Certificates evidencing not less than 51% of the Voting Rights, by notice in writing to the Depositor, the Master Servicer (and to the Trustee if given by such Certificateholders), with a copy to the NIMS Insurer and the Rating Agencies, may terminate all of the rights and obligations (but not the liabilities) of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and/or the REO Property master serviced by the Master Servicer and the proceeds thereof. Upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of the written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates, the Mortgage Loans, REO Property or under any other related agreements (but only to the extent that such other agreements relate to the Mortgage Loans or related REO Property) shall, subject to Section 7.03, automatically and without further action pass to and be vested in the Trustee pursuant to this Section 7.01(b); and, without limitation, the Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Trustee of (i) the property and amounts which are then or should be part of the Trust Fund or which thereafter become part of the Trust Fund; and (ii) originals or copies of all documents of the Master Servicer reasonably requested by the Trustee to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s duties thereunder. In addition to any other amounts which are then, or, notwithstanding the termination of its activities under this Agreement, may become payable to the Master Servicer under this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of any amount received on account of a Mortgage Loan or related REO Property, that portion of such payments which it would have received as reimbursement under this Agreement if notice of termination had not been given. The termination of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer shall not affect any obligations incurred by the Master Servicer prior to such termination.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clause (vi) of this Section 7.01(b) shall occur, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer, which may be delivered by telecopy, immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer thereafter arising under this Agreement, but without prejudice to any rights it may have as a Certificateholder or to reimbursement of Advances and other advances of its own funds, and the Trustee shall act as provided in Section 7.03 to carry out the duties of the Master Servicer, including the obligation to make any Advance the nonpayment of which was a Master Servicer Event of Default described in clause (vi) of this Section 7.01(b). Any such action taken by the Trustee must be prior to the distribution on the relevant Distribution Date.

SECTION 7.02. Master Servicer or Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor Servicer.

(a) From the time a Servicer receives a notice of termination, the Master Servicer or (if the Master Servicer is the Servicer) the Trustee (or such other successor servicer as is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer) shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein, and all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter shall be assumed by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, (except for any representations or warranties of the Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Section 2.05 and the obligation to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant to Section 3.12) by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall immediately assume the Servicer’s obligations to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.03; provided, further, however, that if the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, is prohibited by law or regulation from obligating itself to make advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans, then the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall not be obligated to make Advances pursuant to Section 4.03; and provided further, that any failure to perform such duties or responsibilities caused by the Servicer’s failure to provide information required by Section 7.01(a) shall not be considered a default by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, as successor to the Servicer hereunder. It is understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the transition of servicing obligations is fully effective. As compensation therefor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to the Servicing Fee and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Servicer would have been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder. Notwithstanding the above and subject to Section 7.02(b) below, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or if it is prohibited by law from making advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans or if the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights or the NIMS Insurer so request in writing to the Trustee, promptly appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an established mortgage loan servicing institution acceptable to each Rating Agency and the NIMS Insurer and having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000, as the successor to the Servicer under this Agreement in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement.

Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, unless the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, is prohibited by law from so acting, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the successor shall be entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the compensation which the Servicer would otherwise have received pursuant to Section 3.18 (or such other compensation as the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, and such successor shall agree, not to exceed the Servicing Fee). The appointment of a successor servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen under this Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer to pay any deductible under an insurance policy pursuant to Section 3.14 or to indemnify the NIMS Insurer pursuant to Section 6.03, nor shall any successor servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor servicer or for any breach by such servicer of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any related document or agreement. The Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. All reasonable Servicing Transfer Costs shall be paid by the predecessor servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs, and if such predecessor servicer defaults in its obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the successor servicer or the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable (in which case the successor servicer or the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the assets of the Trust Fund).

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

Any successor to the Servicer, including the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall during the term of its service as servicer continue to service and administer the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of Certificateholders, and maintain in force a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder and a fidelity bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same extent as the Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.14.

(c) Notwithstanding any provision in this Agreement to the contrary, for a period of 30 days following the date on which the Servicer shall have received a notice of a Servicer Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01, or a default under a loan agreement pursuant to Section 6.04 or a Servicer resignation pursuant to Section 6.04, the terminated Servicer or its designee may, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, appoint a successor servicer that satisfies the eligibility criteria of a successor servicer set forth above; provided that such successor servicer agrees to fully effect the servicing transfer within 90 days following the termination of the Servicer and to make all Advances that would otherwise be made by the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, under Section 7.01 as of the date of such appointment. Any proceeds received in connection with the appointment of such successor servicer (after deduction of any expenses incurred in connection with the servicing transfer) shall be the property of the terminated Servicer or its designee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Servicer Event of Default pursuant to Section 7.01(a)(vii), either (i) the Servicer shall remit the amount of the required Advance by 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day following the Servicer Remittance Date or (ii) by 3:00 p.m. New York time on the Business Day following the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall have appointed a successor servicer that satisfies the eligibility criteria of a successor servicer set forth above and that has remitted the amount of the required Advance to the Trust Administrator. If the Servicer fails to adhere to the requirements set forth in the immediately preceding sentence, the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement and shall immediately assume the Servicer’s obligations to make Advances. In no event shall the termination of the Servicer under this Agreement result in any diminution of the Servicer’s right to reimbursement for any outstanding Advances or Servicing Advances or accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees due such Servicer at the time of termination. Reimbursement of unreimbursed Advances and Servicing Advances and accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees shall be made on a FIFO, loan-by-loan basis. The Servicer shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03 hereof related to indemnification, notwithstanding any termination hereunder.

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

SECTION 7.03. Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor Master Servicer.

(a) Upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01(b) or an Opinion of Counsel rendered by Independent counsel pursuant to Section 6.05(b) to the effect that the Master Servicer is legally unable to act or to delegate its duties to a Person which is legally able to act, the Trustee shall automatically become the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall thereafter be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, liabilities and limitations on liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that the Trustee (i) shall have no obligation whatsoever with respect to any liability (other than Advances deemed recoverable and not previously made) incurred by the Master Servicer at or prior to the time of termination and (ii) shall not be obligated to perform any obligation of the Master Servicer under Section 3.20 or 3.21 with respect to any period of time during which the Trustee was not the Master Servicer. As compensation therefor, but subject to Section 6.05, the Trustee shall be entitled to compensation which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to retain if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder, except for those amounts due the Master Servicer as reimbursement permitted under this Agreement for advances previously made or expenses previously incurred. Notwithstanding the above, the Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home finance institution which is a Fannie Mae- or Freddie Mac-approved servicer, acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and with respect to a successor to the Master Servicer only, having a net worth of not less than $50,000,000, as the successor to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, that the Trustee shall obtain consent from the NIMS Insurer and a letter or other evidence each Rating Agency that the ratings, if any, on each of the Certificates will not be lowered as a result of the selection of the successor to the Master Servicer. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that the provisions of Section 6.05 shall apply, the compensation shall not be in excess of that which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder, and that such successor shall undertake and assume the obligations of the Trustee to pay compensation to any third Person acting as an agent or independent contractor in the performance of master servicing responsibilities hereunder. The Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

If the Master Servicer and the Trust Administrator are the same entity, then at any time the Master Servicer resigns or is removed as Master Servicer, the Trust Administrator shall also be removed hereunder. All reasonable Master Servicing Transfer Costs shall be paid by the predecessor Master Servicer upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs, and if such predecessor Master Servicer defaults in its obligation to pay such costs, such costs shall be paid by the successor Master Servicer or the Trustee (in which case the successor Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the assets of the Trust Fund).

(b) If the Trustee shall succeed to any duties of the Master Servicer respecting the Mortgage Loans as provided herein, it shall do so in a separate capacity and not in its capacity as Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VIII shall be inapplicable to the Trustee in its duties as the successor to the Master Servicer in the master servicing of the Mortgage Loans (although such provisions shall continue to apply to the Trustee in its capacity as Trustee); the provisions of Article VI, however, shall apply to it in its capacity as successor Master Servicer.

SECTION 7.04. Notification to Certificateholders.

(a) Upon any termination of a Servicer or the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 above or any appointment of a successor to a Servicer or Master Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 or Section 7.03 above, the Trust Administrator, or in the event of the termination of the Master Servicer, the Trustee (or such other successor Trust Administrator) shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer and the Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Certificate Register.

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

SECTION 7.05. Waiver of Servicer Events of Default and Master Servicer Events of Termination.

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

SECTION 7.06. Survivability of Servicer and Master Servicer Liabilities.

Notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, upon termination of a Servicer or the Master Servicer hereunder, any liabilities of the Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable, which accrued prior to such termination shall survive such termination.

If a Servicer Event of Default or Master Servicer Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured) of which a Responsible Officer has knowledge, each of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator 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.

Each of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, 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; provided, however, that neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator will be responsible for the accuracy or content of any such resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents or other instruments. If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to the Trustee’s or the Trust Administrator’s satisfaction, the Trustee or th
