In the event that any such Assignment is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Servicer, at the expense of the Sponsor, shall promptly prepare or cause to be prepared a substitute Assignment or cure or cause to be cured such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter cause each such Assignment to be duly recorded. Notwithstanding the foregoing, but without limiting the requirement that such Assignments be in recordable form, neither the Servicer nor the Trustee shall be required to submit or cause to be submitted for recording any Assignment delivered to it or the Custodian pursuant to (iii) above if such recordation shall not, as of the Closing Date, be required by the Rating Agencies, as a condition to their assignment on the Closing Date of their initial ratings to the Certificates, as evidenced by the delivery by the Rating Agencies of their ratings letters on the Closing Date; provided, however, notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer shall submit each Assignment for recording, at no expense to the Trust Fund or the Servicer, upon the earliest to occur of: (A) reasonable direction by Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights, (B) the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default, (C) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Sponsor, (D) the occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 of this Agreement and (E) with respect to any one Assignment the occurrence of a foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor under the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Sponsor fails to pay the cost of recording the Assignments, such expense will be paid by the Servicer and the Servicer shall be reimbursed for such expenses by the Trust as Servicing Advances.

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

With respect to a maximum of approximately 5.00% of the Original Mortgage Loans, by outstanding principal balance of the Original Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date, if any original Mortgage Note referred to in (i) above cannot be located, the obligations of the Depositor to deliver such documents shall be deemed to be satisfied upon delivery to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) of a photocopy of such Mortgage Note, if available, with a lost note affidavit. If any of the original Mortgage Notes for which a lost note affidavit was delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) is subsequently located, such original Mortgage Note shall be delivered to the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) within three Business Days.

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

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 Sponsor, 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 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.

Wherever it is provided in this Section 2.01 that any document, evidence or information relating to a Mortgage Loan be delivered or supplied to the Trustee, the Depositor shall do so by delivery thereof to the Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee.

The parties hereto understand and agree that it is not intended that any Mortgage Loan be included in the Trust that is a high-cost home loan as defined by the Homeownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 or any other applicable predatory or abusive lending laws.

SECTION 2.02

Acceptance of the Trust Fund by the Trustee.

Subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to any exceptions noted on an exception report delivered by or on behalf of the Trustee, the Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 (other than such documents described in Section 2.01(iv)) above and all other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” and declares that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage File, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.

The Trustee, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt, subject to the review described in the succeeding sentence, of the documents and other property referred to in Section 2.01 and declares that the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) holds and will hold such documents and other property, including property yet to be received in the Trust Fund, in trust, upon the trusts herein set forth, for the benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall, for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, review each Mortgage File within 90 days after execution and delivery of this Agreement, to ascertain that all required documents have been executed, received and recorded, if applicable, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans. If in the course of such review the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds a document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be defective or missing in any material respect, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trust Administrator, the Sponsor, the Servicer and, if such notice is from the Custodian on the Trustee’s behalf, the Trustee. In addition, upon the discovery by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Originator or the Sponsor in the related 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 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.

The Trustee may, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof or at any time thereafter, enter into a custodial agreement with the Custodian pursuant to which the Trustee appoints the Custodian to hold the Mortgage Files on behalf of the Trustee for the benefit of the Trustee and all present and future Certificateholders, which may provide that the Custodian shall, on behalf of the Trustee, conduct the review of each Mortgage File required under the first paragraph of this Section 2.02. Initially, Citibank West, FSB is appointed as Custodian with respect to the Mortgage Files of all the Mortgage Loans and, notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, it is understood that such initial Custodian shall be responsible for the review contemplated in the second paragraph of this Section 2.02 and for all other functions relating to the receipt, review, reporting and certification provided for herein with respect to the Mortgage Files (other than ownership thereof for the benefit of the Certificateholders and related duties and obligations set forth herein).

SECTION 2.03

Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the Sponsor or the Depositor.

(a) Upon discovery or receipt of notice by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee of any materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or of the breach by the Originator or the Sponsor of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Master Agreement or the Assignment Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the party so discovering or receiving notice shall promptly notify the other parties to this Agreement, and the Trustee thereupon shall promptly notify the Originator and the Sponsor of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the the Originator deliver such missing document or cure such defect or that the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, cure such breach within 90 days from the date the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, was notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Originator or Sponsor, as applicable, does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Originator or Sponsor, as applicable, under the Master Agreement or the Assignment Agreement (i) to repurchase such Mortgage Loan from REMIC I at the Purchase Price within 90 days after the date on which the Sponsor was notified (subject to Section 2.03(e)) of such missing document, defect or breach, and (ii) to indemnify the Trust Fund in respect of such missing document, defect or breach, in the case of each of (i) and (ii), if and to the extent that the Originator or Sponsor, as applicable, is obligated to do so under the Master Agreement or the Assignment Agreement. The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan and any indemnification shall be remitted by the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, to the Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account, and the Trust Administrator, upon receipt of written notice from the Servicer of such deposit, shall give written notice to the Trustee and the Custodian that such deposit has taken place and the Trustee shall release (or cause the Custodian to release on its behalf) to the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, the related Mortgage File, and the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto, and the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. In furtherance of the foregoing, if the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, is not a member of MERS and repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is registered on the MERS System, the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, pursuant to the Master Agreement or the Assignment Agreement 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 Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS System in accordance with MERS rules and regulations. In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, if so provided in the Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement the Originator or the Sponsor, 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(d). It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Originator or the Sponsor, 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, and if and to the extent provided in the Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement to perform any applicable indemnification obligations with respect to any such omission, defect or breach, as provided in such Assignment Agreement, shall constitute the only remedies respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee or the Trust Administrator on behalf of the Certificateholders.

(b) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Section 2.03, with respect to any breach by the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, of any representation and warranty which breach materially and adversely affects the value of any Prepayment Charge or the interests of the Certificateholders therein, the Trustee shall enforce the obligation of the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, to remedy such breach as provided in the Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement as follows: upon any Principal Prepayment with respect to the affected Mortgage Loan, the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, shall pay or cause to be paid to the Purchaser the excess, if any, of (x) the amount of such Prepayment Charge calculated as set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and (y) the amount collected from the Mortgagor in respect of such Prepayment Charge.

(c) Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer or receipt of notice by the Depositor of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.05 which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall cure such breach in all material respects.

(d) 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 the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, delivering to the Trustee (or to the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable), for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment in blank or to the Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01, together with an Officers’ Certificate providing that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Shortfall Amount (as described below), if any, in connection with such substitution. The Custodian on its behalf and on behalf of the Trustee shall, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, review each Mortgage File within 90 days after execution and delivery of this Agreement, to ascertain that all required documents have been executed, received and recorded, if applicable, and that such documents relate to the Mortgage Loans. If in the course of such review the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf finds a document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be defective in any material respect, the Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall promptly so notify the Depositor, the Trust Administrator, the Originator, the Sponsor and the Servicer. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Originator or the Sponsor, 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 Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Trust Administrator shall give or cause to be given written notice to the Trustee and the Certificateholders that such substitution has taken place, and the Trust Administrator shall amend or cause the Custodian to 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, upon receipt thereof, shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Servicer. 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 Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement (including all applicable representations and warranties thereof included in such Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement), in each case as of the date of substitution.

For any month in which the the Originator or the Sponsor, 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 Shortfall Amount”), if any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate of, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Scheduled Principal Balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one month’s interest on such Scheduled Principal Balance at the applicable Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate. On the date of such substitution, the Trustee will monitor the obligation of the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, to deliver or cause to be delivered, and shall request that such delivery be to the Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account, an amount equal to the Substitution Shortfall Amount, if any, and the Trustee (or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable), upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and written notice given by the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, the related Mortgage File or Files and the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

In addition, the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator 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.

(e) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other parties to this Agreement, and the Trustee shall give written notice thereof to the Sponsor. In connection therewith, the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, pursuant to the Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement or the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement shall repurchase or, subject to the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to such affected Mortgage Loan. Such repurchase or substitution shall be made by (i) the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, 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 the Originator or the Sponsor, as applicable, under the Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement or (iii) 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 Sections 2.03(a). The Trustee shall reconvey to the Depositor, the Originator or the Sponsor, 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 by the Originator or the Sponsor for breach of a representation or warranty.

The interests evidenced by the Class R-VI Interest, together with REMIC VI Regular Interest SWAP IO, constitute the entire beneficial ownership interest in REMIC VI.

(g) Concurrently with (i) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC I and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to Section 2.01, Section 2.02 and subsection (a) hereof, (ii) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC II (including the Residual Interest therein represented by the Class R-II Interest) and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to Section 2.01, Section 2.02 and subsection (b) hereof, (iii) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC III (including the Residual Interest therein represented by the Class R-III Interest) and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to Section 2.01, Section 2.02 and subsection (c) hereof and (iv) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC IV (including the Residual Interest therein represented by the Class IV Interest) and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to Section 2.01, Section 2.02 and subsection (d) hereof, (v) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC V (including the Residual Interest therein represented by the Class R-V Interest) and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to Section 2.01, Section 2.02 and subsection (e) hereof and (vi) the assignment and delivery to the Trustee of REMIC VI (including the Residual Interest therein represented by the Class VI Interest) and the acceptance by the Trustee thereof, pursuant to Section 2.01, Section 2.02 and subsection (f) hereof, the Trustee, pursuant to the written request of the Depositor executed by an officer of the Depositor, has executed, authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, (A) the Class R Certificates in authorized denominations evidencing the Class R-I Interest, the Class R-II Interest and the Class R-III Interest and (B) the Class R-X Certificates in authorized denominations evidencing the Class R-IV Interest, the Class R-V Interest and the Class R-VI Interest.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

SECTION 3.01

Servicer to Act as Servicer.

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

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

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

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

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

To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer (a) shall seek 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 or (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. If a Prepayment Charge is waived as permitted by meeting the standard described in clauses (ii) or (iii) above, then, the Trustee shall make commercially reasonable efforts to attempt to enforce the obligations of the Originator under the Master Agreement to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class P Certificates; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be under any obligation to take any action pursuant to this paragraph unless directed by the Depositor and provided, further, the Depositor hereby agrees to assist the Trustee in enforcing any obligations of the Originator to repurchase or substitute for a Mortgage Loan which has breached a representation or warranty under the Master Agreement or Assignment Agreement. If the Trustee makes a good faith determination as evidenced by an officer’s certificate delivered by the Trustee to the Trust Administrator, that the Servicer’s efforts are not reasonably expected to be successful in enforcing such rights, it shall notify the Trust Administrator of such failure and the Trust Administrator, with the cooperation of the Servicer, shall enforce the obligation of the Originator under the Master Agreement to pay to the Servicer the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge. If such Originator fails to pay the amount of such waived Prepayment Charge in accordance with its obligations under the related Master Agreement, the Trustee, Trust Administrator, the Servicer and the Depositor shall consult on further actions to be taken against the Originator. Notwithstanding the foregoing, to the extent that the Trustee and the Originator are the same entity, the Trust Administrator shall enforce the obligations of the Originator under the related Master Agreement pursuant to the terms of this paragraph.

To the extent consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer shall also seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes. Subject only to the above-described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the respective Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration 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 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, and upon notice to the Trustee, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties and to institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such properties, on behalf of the 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 any standard hazard insurance policy. Subject to Section 3.17, the Trustee shall execute, at the written request of the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer and any Sub-Servicer such documents as are necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder, and the Trustee hereby grants to the Servicer a power of attorney to carry out such duties. 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, 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 Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC under the Code or the imposition of any tax on “prohibited transactions” or “contributions after the startup date” under the REMIC Provisions.

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

SECTION 3.02

Sub-Servicing Agreements Between the 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, such sub-servicing arrangement and the terms of the related Sub-Subservicing Agreement must provide for the servicing of Mortgage Loans in a manner consistent with the servicing arrangement contemplated hereunder.

(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 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, are conclusively deemed to be inconsistent with this Agreement and therefore prohibited. The Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator 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 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 Trustee or the Trust Administrator without fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the 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 Trustee, Trust Administrator 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 Trust Administrator 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 Trust Administrator.

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 Trust Administrator or its designee shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under each Sub-Servicing Agreement that the Servicer may have entered into, unless the Trust Administrator elects to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with its terms as provided in Section 3.03. Upon such assumption, the Trust Administrator, its designee or the successor servicer for the Trust Administrator 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 Trust Administrator, 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 (including the PMI Policy), 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. 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, 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 and Distribution 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 related Servicing Fee) 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;

(viii) without duplication, all payments of claims under the PMI Policy; and

(ix) 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 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 Trust Administrator, as agent for the Trustee, shall establish and maintain one or more separate, segregated trust accounts (such account or accounts, the “Distribution Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. 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 Distribution Amount (calculated without regard to the subtraction therefrom of the Credit Risk Manager Fee) 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 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 or before 4:00 p.m. New York time on such Business Day, withdraw from the Collection Account any and all amounts payable or reimbursable to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Sponsor 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 and the Distribution Account may be invested in Permitted Investments in accordance with the provisions set forth in Section 3.12. The Servicer shall give notice to the Trust Administrator and the Trust Administrator shall give notice to the Trustee and the Depositor of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change thereof. The Trust Administrator shall give notice to the Servicer, the Trustee and the Depositor of the location of the Distribution Account when established and prior to any change thereof.

(d) Funds held in the Collection Account at any time may be delivered by the Servicer to the 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 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 P&I 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;

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

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

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

(f) 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 and Distribution Account.

(a) The Servicer shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Collection Account for any of the following purposes or as described in Section 4.03:

(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 P&I 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 P&I 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 Depositor or the Sponsor, as the case may be, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has previously been purchased or replaced pursuant to Section 2.03 all amounts received thereon subsequent to the date of purchase or substitution, as the case may be;

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

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

(viii) to reimburse the Servicer, the Trust Administrator 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 or Section 2.04 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) [reserved];

(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

The Servicer shall provide written notification to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, 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 and the Distribution Account.

(a) The Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, an “Investment Account”), and the Trust Administrator may at the direction of the Depositor direct any depository institution maintaining the Distribution Account (for purposes of this Section 3.12, also an “Investment Account”), to hold the funds in such Investment Account uninvested or 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 Administrator (in its capacity as such) 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) All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Distribution Account held by or on behalf of the Trust Administrator, shall be for the benefit of the Trust Administrator and shall be subject to its withdrawal at any time. The Trust Administrator shall deposit in the Distribution 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.

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

SECTION 3.13

[Reserved].

SECTION 3.14

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

(a) The 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 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) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan at the time it became an REO Property. 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 the Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards, the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program). Such flood insurance must also be equal to the replacement value or the maximum payable amount under the Flood Disaster Protection Act (FDPA).

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.

(b) 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 each 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 and the Trust Administrator.

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 and the Trust Administrator that any such substitution or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trust Administrator 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 whatever. For purposes of this Section 3.15, the term “assumption” is deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.

SECTION 3.16

Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

(a) The Servicer shall, 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 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.

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 shall have the right to purchase from REMIC I any defaulted Mortgage Loan that is 90 days or more delinquent, which the Servicer 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 Trust Administrator, upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release or cause to be released to the Servicer the related Mortgage File and the Trust Administrator, upon receipt of written certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Servicer shall furnish and as shall be necessary to vest in the Servicer 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 P&I 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, on behalf of the Trustee, shall release within two Business Days the related Mortgage File to the Servicer, and the Servicer is authorized to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS® System of any such Mortgage, if applicable, and 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 Trustee (or the Custodian on its behalf) 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, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, upon request of the Servicer and delivery to the related Custodian and the Trustee of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit E, release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer within two Business Days, and the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall, at the direction of the Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. 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.

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 to the extent provided herein in Section 8.05, the fees and expenses of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided herein.

SECTION 3.19

Reports to the Trust Administrator; Collection Account Statements.

Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall forward to the Trust Administrator, upon the request of the Trust Administrator, 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 the form of the then current Fannie Mae Monthly Accounting Report for its Guaranteed Mortgage Pass-Through Program with appropriate additions and changes, and shall also include information as to the aggregate of the outstanding principal balances of all of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the calendar month immediately preceding such Distribution Date. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the 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 shall deliver to the Trust Administrator, on or before March 15^th of each calendar year beginning in 2007, an Officers’ Certificate (an “Annual Statement of Compliance”) stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers’ supervision and (ii) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement in all material respects throughout such year, or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any material respect, specifying each such failure known to such officer and the nature and status of cure provisions thereof. The Servicer shall deliver, or cause any Sub-Servicer to deliver, a similar Annual Statement of Compliance by any Sub-Servicer to which the Servicer has delegated any servicing responsibilites with respect to the Mortgage Loans, to the Trust Administrator as described above as and when required with respect to the Servicer.

If the Servicer cannot deliver the related Annual Statement of Compliance by March 15th of such year, the Trust Administrator, at its sole option, may permit a cure period for the Servicer to deliver such Annual Statement of Compliance, but in no event later than March 20th of such year.

Failure of the Servicer to timely comply with this Section 3.20, which continues unremedied for ten (10) calendar days after the date on which the Annual Statement of Compliance was required to be delivered, shall be deemed an Event of Default, and upon the receipt of written notice from the Trust Administrator of such Event of Default, the Trustee may at the direction of the Depositor, in addition to whatever rights the Trustee may have under this Agreement and at law or equity or to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, upon notice immediately terminate 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; provided that to the extent that any provision of this Agreement expressly provides for the survival of certain rights or obligations following termination of the Servicer, such provision shall be given effect. This paragraph shall supercede any other provision in this Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary.

The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trust Administrator and their 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 Servicer’s obligations under this Section 3.20.

SECTION 3.21

Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports.

(a) The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with all applicable requirements of the Servicing Criteria (as set forth in Exhibit C hereto). The Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Administrator on or before March 1^st of each calendar year beginning in 2007, the following:

(i) a report (an “Assessment of Compliance”) regarding the Servicer’s assessment of compliance with the Servicing Criteria during the immediately preceding calendar year, as required under Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Exchange Act and Item 1122 of Regulation AB. Such report shall be signed by an authorized officer of the Servicer, and shall address each of the Servicing Criteria set forth in Exhibit C hereto;

(ii) a report (an “Attestation Report”) of a registered public accounting firm reasonably acceptable to the Depositor that attests to, and reports on, the assessment of compliance made by the Servicer and delivered pursuant to the preceding paragraph. Such attestation shall be in accordance with Rules 1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Exchange Act; and

(iii) cause each Sub-Servicer, and each subcontractor determined by the Servicer to be “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, to deliver an Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report as and when provided in paragraphs (i) and (ii) of this Section 3.21(a).

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

(b) The Servicer shall, or shall cause any Sub-Servicer and each subcontractor determined by the Servicer to be “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB to, deliver to the Trust Administrator and the Depositor an Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report as and when provided above.

Such Assessment of Compliance, as to any Sub-Servicer, shall at a minimum address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on Exhibit C hereto which are indicated as applicable to any “primary servicer.” Notwithstanding the foregoing, as to any subcontractor, an Assessment of Compliance is not required to be delivered unless it is required as part of a Form 10-K with respect to the Trust Fund.

If the Servicer cannot deliver any Assessment of Compliance or Attestation Report by March 1^st of such year, the Trust Administrator, at its sole option, may permit a cure period for the Servicer to deliver such Assessment of Compliance or Attestation Report, but in no event later than March 15^th of such year.

Failure of the Servicer to timely comply with this Section 3.21 shall be deemed a Servicer Event of Default, and upon the receipt of written notice from the Trust Administrator of such Event of Default, the Trustee at the direction of the Depositor may, in addition to whatever rights the Trustee may have under this Agreement and at law or equity or to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, upon notice immediately terminate 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; provided, however, the Depositor shall not be entitled to instruct the Trustee to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer pursuant to clause (iii) above if a failure of the Servicer to identify a subcontractor “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB was attributable solely to the role or functions of such subcontractor with respect to mortgage loans other than the Mortgage Loans. This paragraph shall supercede any other provision in this Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary.

The Trust Administrator shall also provide an Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report, as and when provided above, which shall at a minimum address each of the Servicing Criteria specified on Exhibit C hereto which are indicated as applicable to the “trust administrator.”

The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and the Trust Administrator and their 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 Servicer’s obligations, as applicable, under this Section 3.21.

SECTION 3.22

Access to Certain Documentation.

The Servicer shall provide to the Depositor, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee 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 the Trustee or the Trust Administrator for purposes of any Person identified as a Certificateholder or any federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over any Certificateholder or a prospective transferee of a Certificate or a 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 Trustee or Trust Administrator. 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) The deed or certificate of sale of any REO Property shall be taken in the name of the Trustee, or its nominee, in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders. 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:

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

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

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

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

unless, in any such case, the Servicer has obtained an Opinion of Counsel, provided to the Trust Administrator and the Trustee, to the effect that such action will not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code at any time that it is held by 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 P&I 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), and further subject to obtaining the approval of the insurer under any related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy (if and to the extent that such approvals are necessary to make claims under such policies in respect of the affected REO Property), 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 applicable 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 P&I 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 P&I 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 P&I 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 P&I 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 P&I 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 P&I Advances and Servicing Advances from the Distribution Account to the same extent the Servicer would have been permitted to reimburse itself for such P&I 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 P&I 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 P&I 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

PMI Policy; Claims Under the PMI Policy.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary elsewhere in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not take any action with respect to a Covered Mortgage Loan that could result in denial of coverage under the PMI Policy. The Servicer shall, on behalf of the Trustee, prepare and file on a timely basis with the PMI Insurer, all claims which may be made under the PMI Policy with respect to the Covered Mortgage Loans. Copies of any such claims will be provided to the Trustee and/or the Trust Administrator if reasonably requested. Consistent with all rights and obligations hereunder, the Servicer shall take all actions required under the PMI Policy as a condition to the payment of any such claim. Any amount received from the PMI Insurer with respect to any such Covered Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by the Trust Administrator into the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.10(a). The Trust Administrator shall withdraw from the Distribution Account on each Distribution Date and pay to the PMI Insurer the PMI Insurer Fee in accordance with the terms of the PMI Policy.

(c) to the Holders of REMIC II Regular Interest LTP, on the Distribution Date immediately following the expiration of the latest Prepayment Charge as identified on the Prepayment Charge Schedule or any Distribution Date thereafter until $100 has been distributed pursuant to this clause; and

provided, however, that 98.00% and 2.00% of any principal payments that are attributable to an Overcollateralization Reduction Amount shall be allocated to Holders of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, respectively.

(b) On each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall withdraw any amounts then on deposit in the Distribution Account that represent Prepayment Charges collected by the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer in connection with the Principal Prepayment of any of the Mortgage Loans or any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amount and shall distribute such amounts to the Holders of the Class P Certificates.

Following the foregoing distributions, an amount equal to the amount of Subsequent Recoveries shall be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the Highest Priority up to the extent of such Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04. An amount equal to the amount of any remaining Subsequent Recoveries shall be applied to increase the Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Certificates with the next Highest Priority, up to the amount of such Realized Losses previously allocated to that Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 4.04. Holders of such Certificates will not be entitled to any distribution in respect of interest on the amount of such increases for any Interest Accrual Period preceding the Distribution Date on which such increase occurs. Any such increases shall be applied to the Certificate Principal Balance of each Certificate of such Class in accordance with its respective Percentage Interest.

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

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

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

(e) Except as otherwise provided in Section 9.01, whenever the Trust Administrator expects that the final distribution with respect to any Class of Certificates will be made on the next Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall, no later than five days after the latest related Determination Date, mail on such date to each Holder of such Class of Certificates a notice to the effect that:

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

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

(iii) 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 remaining non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates and shall continue to hold any remaining funds for the benefit of non-tendering Certificateholders. The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in such trust fund. If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trust Administrator shall pay to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. 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(e).

(f) 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 allocated to such Certificate in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 4.04 and (ii) in no event shall the Uncertificated Balance of a REMIC Regular Interest be reduced more than once in respect of any particular amount both (a) allocated to such REMIC Regular Interest in respect of Realized Losses pursuant to Section 4.04 and (b) distributed on such REMIC Regular Interest in reduction of the Uncertificated Balance thereof pursuant to this Section 4.01.

For all purposes of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, delinquencies shall be determined by the Trust Administrator from information provided by the Servicer and reported by the Trust Administrator based on the OTS methodology for determining delinquencies on mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans. By way of example, a Mortgage Loan would be delinquent with respect to a Monthly Payment due on a Due Date if such Monthly Payment is not made by the close of business on the Mortgage Loan's next succeeding Due Date, and a Mortgage Loan would be more than 30-days Delinquent with respect to such Monthly Payment if such Monthly Payment were not made by the close of business on the Mortgage Loan’s second succeeding Due Date. The Servicer hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor that the Servicer is not subject to any delinquency recognition policy established by its primary safety and soundness regulator.

The Trust Administrator shall make available on its website to each Person (and the Trustee) who at any time during the calendar year was a Holder of a Regular Certificate, the statements containing the information set forth in subclauses (i) through (iii) above. 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.

On each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall make available to the Depositor, each Holder of a Residual Certificate, the Trustee, the Servicer and the Credit Risk Manager, a copy of the reports forwarded to the Regular Certificateholders on such Distribution Date and a statement setting forth the amounts, if any, actually distributed with respect to the Residual Certificates, respectively, on such Distribution Date.

The Trust Administrator shall furnish to the Holders of the Residual Certificates

the applicable Form 1066 and each applicable Form 1066Q as required by the Code. Additionally, the Trust Administrator shall make available on its website to each Person (and the Trustee) who at any time during the calendar year was a Holder of a Residual Certificate certain statements setting forth information set forth in clauses (i) through (xxxii) above. 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 to such Holders pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Code as are in force from time to time.

Upon request, the Trust Administrator shall forward to each Certificateholder, 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. For purposes of this Section 4.02, the Trust Administrator’s duties are limited to the extent that the Trust Administrator receives timely reports as required from the Servicer.

On each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall provide Bloomberg Financial Markets, L.P. (“Bloomberg”) on its website (1) CUSIP level factors for each class of Certificates as of such Distribution Date and (2) the number and aggregate unpaid principal balance of Mortgage Loans that are (a) delinquent 30 to 59 days, (b) delinquent 60 to 89 days, (c) delinquent 90 or more days in each case, as of the last day of the preceding calendar month, (d) as to which foreclosure proceedings have been commenced and (e) with respect to which the related Mortgagor has filed for protection under applicable bankruptcy laws, with respect to whom bankruptcy proceedings are pending or with respect to whom bankruptcy protection is in force, in each case using a format and media mutually acceptable to the Trust Administrator and Bloomberg.

For each Distribution Date, through and including the Distribution Date in December 2006, the Trust Administrator shall calculate the Significance Percentage of each of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Interest Rate Cap Agreement. If on any such Distribution Date, the Significance Percentage of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement or the Interest Rate Cap Agreement is equal to or greater than 10%, the Trust Administrator shall promptly notify the Depositor and the Depositor shall file, by Form 10-D no later than fifteen days following the related Distribution Date, the financial statements of the Swap Provider as required by Item 1115 of Regulation AB.

SECTION 4.03

Remittance Reports; P&I Advances.

(a) No later than the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trust Administrator, in a mutually agreed upon electronic format (or by such other means as the Servicer and the Trust Administrator may agree from time to time) a Remittance Report with respect to the related Distribution Date. The Trust Administrator shall, on behalf of the Servicer, on such date furnish a copy of such Remittance Report to the Credit Risk Manager by such means as the Trust Administrator shall agree from time to time. Such Remittance Report will include such other information with respect to the Mortgage Loans as the Trust Administrator may reasonably require to perform the calculations necessary to make the distributions contemplated by Section 4.01 and to prepare the statements to Certificateholders contemplated by Section 4.02. Neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall 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 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. 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 P&I Advances, if any, to be made in respect of the Mortgage Loans for the related Distribution Date either (i) from its own funds or (ii) from the Collection Account, to the extent of 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 P&I Advance) or (iii) in the form of any combination of (i) and (ii) aggregating the total amount of P&I Advances to be made by the Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans. Any amounts held for future distribution used by the Servicer to make a P&I Advance as permitted in the preceding sentence shall be appropriately reflected in the Servicer’s records and replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Collection Account on or before any future Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that the Available Distribution Amount for the related Distribution Date (determined without regard to P&I 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 P&I Advances. The Trust Administrator will provide notice to the Servicer by telecopy by the close of business on the Business Day prior to the Distribution Date in the event that the amount remitted by the Servicer to the Trust Administrator on such date is less than the P&I Advances required to be made by the Servicer for the related Distribution Date.

(c) The obligation of the Servicer to make such P&I 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 P&I Advance or Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Servicer if such P&I Advance or Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively. The determination by the Servicer that it has made a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed P&I Advance or Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable P&I Advance or Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, respectively, shall be evidenced by a certification of a Servicing Officer 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 regarding such Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance shall not be required to be delivered by the Servicer to the Trust Administrator.

SECTION 4.04

Allocation of Extraordinary Trust Fund Expenses and Realized Losses.

(a) Prior to each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall determine as to each Mortgage Loan and REO Property: (i) the total amount of Realized Losses, if any, incurred in connection with any Final Recovery Determinations made during the related Prepayment Period; (ii) whether and the extent to which such Realized Losses constituted Bankruptcy Losses; and (iii) the respective portions of such Realized Losses allocable to interest and allocable to principal. Prior to each 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 or evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Trust Administrator and the Trustee 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 the Interest Distribution Amount for the Class CE Certificates for the related Interest Accrual Period; second, to payments received under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and Net Swap Payments received under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, third, to the Class CE Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Class M-11 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, fifth, to the Class M-10 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero, sixth, to the Class M-9 Certificates until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Class M-8 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; eighth, to the Class M-7 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; ninth, to the Class M-6 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; tenth, to the Class M-5 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; eleventh, to the Class M-4 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; twelfth, to the Class M-3 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero; thirteenth, to the Class M-2 Certificates, until the Certificate Principal Balance thereof has been reduced to zero and fourteenth, 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 and any allocation of Realized Losses to a Class CE Certificates shall be made by reducing the amount otherwise payable in respect thereof pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(3). No allocations of any Realized Losses shall be made to the Certificate Principal Balances of the Class A Certificates or the Class P Certificates.

(c) All Realized Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated on each Distribution Date to REMIC I Regular Interest I-1-A through REMIC I Regular Interest I-26-B, starting with the lowest numerical denomination until such REMIC I Regular Interest has been reduced to zero, provided that, for REMIC I Regular Interests with the same numerical denomination, such Realized Losses shall be allocated pro rata between such REMIC I Regular Interests.

(d) 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 LTAA and REMIC II Regular Interest 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 LTAA and REMIC II Regular Interest 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 LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM11 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM11 has been reduced to zero; fourth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM10 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM10 has been reduced to zero; fifth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM9 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM9 has been reduced to zero; sixth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM8 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM8 has been reduced to zero; seventh, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM7 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM7 has been reduced to zero; eighth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM6 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM6 has been reduced to zero; ninth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM5 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM5 has been reduced to zero; tenth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM4 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM4 has been reduced to zero; eleventh, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM3 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM3 has been reduced to zero; twelfth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM2 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest LTM2 has been reduced to zero and thirteenth, to the Uncertificated Balances of REMIC II Regular Interest LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest LTM1 and REMIC II Regular Interest LTZZ, 98%, 1% and 1%, respectively, until the Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest 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

Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account.

(a) No later than the Closing Date, the Trust Administrator shall establish and maintain a separate, segregated trust account titled, “Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, Citibank, N.A., as Trust Administrator, in trust for the registered holders of Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust, Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-WFHE4.” The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account will be an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h).

(b) On each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator has been directed by the Class CE Certificateholders to, and therefore shall, deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts for such Distribution Date, 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 Floating Rate Certificates, and shall distribute the aggregate Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount, if any, for such Distribution Date from the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account to the Holders of the Floating Rate Certificates in the amounts and priorities set forth in Section 4.01(g).

On each Distribution Date, after the payment of any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts on the Floating Rate Certificates, any amounts remaining in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account, shall be payable to the Trust Administrator as additional compensation to it, subject to the immediately following paragraph.

(c) 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 Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account be treated as a partnership. 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. Upon the termination of the Trust Fund, or the payment in full of the Floating Rate Certificates, all amounts remaining on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall be released by the Trust Fund and distributed to the Class CE Certificateholders or their designees. The Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve 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 is directed, to deposit into the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account the amounts described above on each Distribution Date rather than distributing such amounts to the Class CE Certificateholders. By accepting a Class CE Certificate, each Class CE Certificateholder further agrees that such direction is given for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which is acknowledged by such acceptance.

(e) All amounts on deposit in the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account shall remain uninvested.

(f) For federal tax return and information reporting, the right of the Holders of the Floating Rate Certificates to receive payments from the Net WAC Rate Carryover Reserve Account in respect of any Net WAC Rate Carryover Amount shall be assigned a value of zero.

SECTION 4.07

Commission Reporting.

(a) (i) Within 10 days after each Distribution Date, the Trust Administrator shall, in accordance with industry standards, file with the Commission via the Electronic Data Gathering and Retrieval System (“EDGAR”), a distribution report on Form 10-D, signed by the Depositor, with a copy of the monthly statement to be furnished by the Trust Administrator to the Certificateholders for such Distribution Date. Any disclosure in addition to the monthly statement required to be included on the Form 10-D (“Additional Form 10-D Disclosure”) shall be determined and prepared by the entity that is indicated in Exhibit B as the responsible party for providing that information, and the Trust Administrator will have no duty or liability to verify the accuracy or sufficiency of any such Additional Form 10-D Disclosure and the Trust Administrator shall have no liability with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file such Form 10-D resulting from or relating to the Trust Administrator’s inability or failure to obtain any information in a timely manner from the party responsible for delivery of such Additional Form 10-D Disclosure.

Within 5 calendar days after the related Distribution Date (or if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), each entity that is indicated in Exhibit B as the responsible party for providing Additional Form 10-D Disclosure shall be required to provide to the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, to the extent known, clearly identifying which item of Form 10-D the information relates to, any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable. The Trust Administrator shall compile the information provided to it, prepare the Form 10-D and forward the Form 10-D to the Depositor for verification. The Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the Form 10-D. No later than three Business Days prior to the 10^th calendar day after the related Distribution Date, an officer of the Depositor shall sign the Form 10-D and return an electronic or fax copy of such signed Form 10-D (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight mail) to the Trust Administrator.

(ii) Within three (3) Business Days after the occurrence of an event requiring disclosure on Form 8-K (each such event, a “Reportable Event”), the Trust Administrator shall prepare and file any Form 8-K, as required by the Exchange Act, (other than the initial Form 8-K in connection with the issuance of the Certificates, which shall be prepared and filed by the Depositor). Any disclosure or information related to a Reportable Event or that is otherwise required to be included on Form 8-K (“Form 8-K Disclosure Information”) shall be determined and prepared by the entity that is indicated in Exhibit B as the responsible party for providing that information. The Trust Administrator shall not be responsible for determing what information is required to be filed on Form 8-K or for any filing that is not made on a timely basis in accordance with Regulation AB in the event that such information is not delivered to the Trust Adminsitrator on or prior to the fourth Business Day prior to the applicable filing deadline.

For so long as the Trust is subject to the Exchange Act reporting requirements, no later than the end of business on the second Business Day after the occurrence of a Reportable Event, the entity that is indicated in Exhibit B as the responsible party for providing Form 8-K Disclosure Information shall be required to provide to the Trust Administrator, to the extent known, the form and substance of any Form 8-K Disclosure Information, if applicable. The Trust Administrator shall compile the information provided to it, and prepare and file the Form 8-K, which shall be signed by an officer of the Depositor.

(iii) 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, in accordance with industry standards, file a Form 15 Suspension Notice with respect to the Trust Fund, if applicable. Prior to (x) March 15, 2007 and (y) unless and until a Form 15 Suspension Notice shall have been filed, prior to March 15 of each year thereafter, the Servicer shall provide the Trust Administrator with an Annual Compliance Statement, together with a copy of the Assessment of Compliance and Attestation Report to be delivered by the Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.20 and 3.21 (including with respect to any Sub-Servicer or any subcontractor, if required to be filed). Prior to (x) March 31, 2007 and (y) unless and until a Form 15 Suspension Notice shall have been filed, March 31 of each year thereafter, the Trust Administrator shall file a Form 10-K, in substance as required by applicable law or applicable Securities and Exchange Commission staff’s interpretations and conforming to industry standards, with respect to the Trust Fund. Such Form 10-K shall include the Assessment of Compliance, Attestation Report, Annual Compliance Statements and other documentation provided by the Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.20 and 3.21 (including with respect to any Sub-Servicer or subcontractor, if required to be filed) and Section 3.21 with respect to the Trust Administrator, and the Form 10-K certification in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H-1 (the “Certification”) signed by the senior officer of the Depositor in charge of securitization. The Trust Administrator shall receive the items described in the preceding sentence no later than March 15^th of each calendar year prior to the filing deadline for the Form 10-K.

If information, data and exhibits to be included in the Form 10-K are not so timely delivered, the Trust Administrator shall file an amended Form 10-K including such documents as exhibits reasonably promptly after they are delivered to the Trust Administrator. The Trust Administrator shall have no liability with respect to any failure to properly prepare or file such periodic reports resulting from or relating to the Trust Administrator’s inability or failure to timely obtain any information from any other party.

Prior to (x) March 1, 2007 and (y) unless and until a Form 15 Suspension Notice shall have been filed, prior to March 1^st of each year thereafter, each entity that is indicated in Exhibit B as the responsible party for providing Additional Form 10-K Disclosure shall be required to provide to the Trust Administrator and the Depositor, to the extent known, the form and substance of any Additional Form 10-K Disclosure Information, if applicable. The Trust Administrator shall compile the information provided to it, prepare the Form 10-K and forward the Form 10-K to the Depositor for verification. The Depositor will approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may be, the Form 10-K by no later than March 25^th of the relevant year (or the immediately preceding Business Day if March 25^th is not a Business Day), an officer of the Depositor shall sign the Form 10-K and return an electronic or fax copy of such signed Form 10-K (with an original executed hard copy to follow by overnight mail) to the Trust Administrator.

The Servicer shall be responsible for determining the pool concentration applicable to any Sub-Servicer to which the Servicer delegated any of its responsibilities with respect to the Mortgage Loans at any time, for purposes of disclosure as required by Items 1117 and 1119 of Regulation AB. The Trust Administrator will provide electronic or paper copies of all Form 10-D, 8-K and 10-K filings free of charge to any Certificateholder upon written request. Any expenses incurred by the Trust Administrator in connection with the previous sentence shall be reimbursable to the Trust Administrator out of the Trust Fund.

The Trust Administrator shall sign a certification (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H-2) for the benefit of the Depositor and its officers, directors and Affiliates in respect of items 1 through 3 of the Certification (the “Trust Administrator Certification”) (provided, however, that the Trust Administrator shall not undertake an analysis of the Attestation Report attached as an exhibit to the Form 10-K), and the Servicer shall sign a certification (the “Servicer Certification) solely with respect to the Servicer (in the form attached hereto as Exhibit H-3) for the benefit of the Depositor, the Trust Administrator and each Person, if any, who “controls” the Depositor or the Trust Administrator within the meaning of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and their respective officers and directors. Each such certification shall be delivered to the Depositor and the Trust Administrator by March 20^th of each year (or if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day). The Certification attached hereto as Exhibit H-1 shall be delivered to the Trust Administrator by March 25^th for filing on or prior to March 31^st of each year (or if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day).

(b) In addition, (A) the Trust Administrator shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor and its 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 arising out of third party claims based upon (i) a breach of the Trust Administrator’s obligations under this Section 4.07 or (ii) any material misstatement or omission contained in the Trust Administrator Certification and (B) the Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Trust Administrator and their 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 arising out of third party claims based upon (i) a breach of such Servicer’s obligations under this Section 4.07, (ii) any material misstatement or omission contained in the Assessment of Compliance provided by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.21 or (iii) any information correctly derived by the Trust Administrator and included in a Form 10-D or Form 10-K from information provided to the Trust Administrator by the Servicer under this Agreement. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Depositor, then (i) the Trust Administrator agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Depositor as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Depositor in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Depositor on the one hand and the Trust Administrator on the other and (ii) the Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Depositor as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Depositor in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Depositor on the one hand and the Servicer on the other. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in no event shall the Trust Administrator be liable for any consequential, indirect or punitive damages.

SECTION 4.08

Cap Account

(a) No later than the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain with itself or the Cap Administrator, a separate, segregated trust account titled, “U.S. Bank National Association, as Cap Trustee, in trust for the registered holders of Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust 2006-WFHE4, Asset-Backed Certificates, Series 2006-WFHE4—Cap Account.” Such account shall be an Eligible Account and amounts therein shall be held uninvested.

(b) Prior to each Distribution Date, pursuant to the Cap Administration Agreement, prior to any distribution to any Certificate, the Cap Administrator on behalf of the Cap Trustee shall deposit into the Cap Account amounts received by it under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, for distribution in accordance with Section 4.01(a)(6) 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 partnership. Upon the termination of the Trust Fund, or the payment in full of the Floating Rate 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).

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.

SECTION 4.09

Swap Account.

(a) On the Closing Date, there is hereby established a separate trust (the “Supplemental Interest Trust”), into which the Depositor shall deposit the Interest Rate Swap 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 the Trust Administrator a separate, segregated trust account to be held in the Supplemental Interest Trust, titled, “Swap Account, Citibank, N.A., as Supplemental Trust Trustee, in trust for the registered holders of the Citigroup Mortgage Loan Trust Inc., Asset-Backed Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-WFHE4.” 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 Trust Administrator held pursuant to this Agreement. Amounts therein shall be held uninvested.

(b) Prior to any distribution to any Certificate, the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee or the Trust Administrator on its behalf shall deposit into the Swap Account (for distribution pursuant to Section 4.01(a)(7)): (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 the 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 the Available Distribution Amount. For federal income tax purposes, any amounts paid to the Swap Provider shall first be deemed paid to the Swap Provider in respect of REMIC VI Regular Interest SWAP IO to the extent of the amount distributable on REMIC VI Regular Interest SWAP IO on such Distribution Date, and any remaining amount shall be deemed paid to the Swap Provider in respect of a Class IO Distribution Amount (as defined below).

(c) 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 partnership. The Supplemental Interest Trust will be an “outside reserve fund” within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h).

(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 II 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 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, but also ownership of an interest in, and obligations with respect to, a notional principal contract.

SECTION 4.10

Tax Treatment of Swap Payments and Swap Termination Payments.

For federal income tax purposes, each holder of a Floating Rate 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 Floating Rate Certificates as follows: each Floating Rate 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 Payment 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 Floating Rate Certificate.

The REMIC regular interest corresponding to a Floating Rate 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 Swap Notional 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 Floating Rate Certificate may exceed the actual amount of distributions on the Floating Rate Certificate.

SECTION 4.11

[RESERVED]

SECTION 4.12

Rights and Obligations Under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and the Interest Rate Swap Agreement

(a) In the event that the Interest Rate Cap Provider fails to perform any of its obligations under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (including, without limitation, its obligation to make any payment or transfer collateral), or breaches any of its representations and warranties thereunder, or in the event that any Event of Default, Termination Event, or Additional Termination Event (each as defined in the Interest Rate Cap Agreement) occurs with respect to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) shall, promptly following actual knowledge of such failure, breach or event, notify the Depositor and send any notices and make any demands, on behalf of the Cap Trust, required to enforce the rights of the Cap Trust under the Interest Rate Cap Agreement.

In the event that the Interest Rate Cap Provider’s obligations are guaranteed by a third party under a guaranty relating to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement (such guaranty the “Guaranty” and such third party the “Guarantor”), then to the extent that the Interest Rate Cap Provider fails to make any payment by the close of business on the day it is required to make payment under the terms of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) shall, promptly following actual knowledge of the Interest Rate Cap Provider’s failure to pay, demand that the Guarantor make any and all payments then required to be made by the Guarantor pursuant to such Guaranty; provided, that the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) shall in no event be liable for any failure or delay in the performance by the Interest Rate Cap Provider or any Guarantor of its obligations hereunder or pursuant to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement and the Guaranty, nor for any special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits) in connection therewith.

Upon an early termination of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement other than in connection with the optional termination of the Trust, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) will, at the direction of the Depositor, use reasonable efforts to appoint a successor interest rate cap provider to enter into a new interest rate cap agreement on terms substantially similar to the Interest Rate Cap Agreement, with a successor interest rate cap provider meeting all applicable eligibility requirements. If the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) receives a termination payment from the Interest Rate Cap Provider in connection with such early termination, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) will apply such termination payment to any upfront payment required to appoint the successor interest rate cap provider. If the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) is required to pay a termination payment to the Interest Rate Cap Provider in connection with such early termination, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) will apply any upfront payment received from the successor interest rate cap provider to pay such termination payment.

If the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) is unable to appoint a successor interest rate cap provider within 30 days of the early termination, then the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) will deposit any termination payment received from the original Interest Rate Cap Provider into a separate, non-interest bearing reserve account and will, on each subsequent Distribution Date, withdraw from the amount then remaining on deposit in such reserve account an amount equal to the payment, if any, that would have been paid to the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) by the original Interest Rate Cap Provider calculated in accordance with the terms of the original Interest Rate Cap Agreement, and distribute such amount in accordance with the terms of Section 4.01(a)(6).

Upon an early termination of the Interest Rate Cap Agreement in connection with the optional termination of the Trust, if the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Cap Trustee) receives a termination payment from the Interest Rate Cap Provider, such termination payment will be distributed in accordance with Section 4.01(a)(6).

(b) In the event that the Swap Provider fails to perform any of its obligations under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement (including, without limitation, its obligation to make any payment or transfer collateral), or breaches any of its representations and warranties thereunder, or in the event that any Event of Default, Termination Event, or Additional Termination Event (each as defined in the Interest Rate Swap Agreement) occurs with respect to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) shall, promptly following actual knowledge of such failure, breach or event, notify the Depositor and send any notices and make any demands, on behalf of the Supplemental Interest Trust, required to enforce the rights of the Supplemental Interest Trust under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement.

In the event that the Swap Provider’s obligations are guaranteed by a third party under a guaranty relating to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement (such guaranty the “Guaranty” and such third party the “Guarantor”), then to the extent that the Swap Provider fails to make any payment by the close of business on the day it is required to make payment under the terms of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) shall, promptly following actual knowledge of the Swap Provider’s failure to pay, demand that the Guarantor make any and all payments then required to be made by the Guarantor pursuant to such Guaranty; provided, that the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) shall in no event be liable for any failure or delay in the performance by the Swap Provider or any Guarantor of its obligations hereunder or pursuant to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement and the Guaranty, nor for any special, indirect or consequential loss or damage of any kind whatsoever (including but not limited to lost profits) in connection therewith.

Upon an early termination of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement other than in connection with the optional termination of the Trust, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) will, at the direction of the Depositor, use reasonable efforts to appoint a successor swap provider to enter into a new interest rate swap agreement on terms substantially similar to the Interest Rate Swap Agreement, with a successor swap provider meeting all applicable eligibility requirements. If the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) receives a termination payment from the Swap Provider in connection with such early termination, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) will apply such termination payment to any upfront payment required to appoint the successor swap provider. If the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) is required to pay a termination payment to the Swap Provider in connection with such early termination, the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) will apply any upfront payment received from the successor swap provider to pay such termination payment.

If the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) is unable to appoint a successor swap provider within 30 days of the early termination, then the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) will deposit any termination payment received from the original Swap Provider into a separate, non-interest bearing reserve account and will, on each subsequent Distribution Date, withdraw from the amount then remaining on deposit in such reserve account an amount equal to the Net Swap Payment, if any, that would have been paid to the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) by the original Swap Provider calculated in accordance with the terms of the original Interest Rate Swap Agreement, and distribute such amount in accordance with the terms of Section 4.01(a)(7).

Upon an early termination of the Interest Rate Swap Agreement in connection with the optional termination of the Trust, if the Trust Administrator (in its capacity as Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee) receives a termination payment from the Swap Provider, such termination payment will be distributed in accordance with Section 4.01(a)(7).

ARTICLE V

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 the Trust Fund. At the Closing Date, the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the Certificates will equal the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans.

The Certificates will be substantially in the forms annexed hereto as Exhibits A-1 through A-19. 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, authenticated and delivered by the Trust Administrator to or upon the order of the Depositor. The Certificates shall be executed and attested 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 execution, 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 Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be issued as one or more Certificates held by 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 Servicer and the Trust Administrator and any other transfer agent (including the Depository or any successor Depository) to act as Book-Entry Custodian under such conditions as the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian and the Depository or any successor Depository may prescribe, provided that the predecessor Book-Entry Custodian shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities by reason of any such appointment of other than the Depository. If the 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 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, 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 issue the Definitive Certificates. Such Definitive Certificates will be issued in minimum denominations of $25,000, except that any beneficial ownership that was represented by a Book-Entry Certificate in an amount less than $25,000 immediately prior to the issuance of a Definitive Certificate shall be issued in a minimum denomination equal to the amount represented by such Book-Entry Certificate. None of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trust Administrator nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in the delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions. Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates all references herein to obligations imposed upon or to be performed by the Depository shall be deemed to be imposed upon and performed by the Trust Administrator, to the extent applicable with respect to such Definitive Certificates, 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 8.12 a Certificate Register for the Certificates in which, subject to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Trust Administrator shall provide for the registration of Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as herein provided.

(b) No transfer of any Private Certificate shall be made unless that transfer is made pursuant to an effective registration statement under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”), and 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 Residual Certificates, the first transfer by an Affiliate of the Depositor or the first transfer by the initial transferree 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 or indenture trustee administrator under the Indenture or (iii) a transfer of any such Class CE, Class P or Residual Certificate from the issuer under the Indenture or the indenture trustee or indenture trustee administrator under the Indenture to the Depositor or an Affiliate of the Depositor), the Trustee shall require receipt of: (i) if such transfer is purportedly being made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, written certifications from the 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 Trust Fund or of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer, in its capacity as such, or any Sub-Servicer), 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 Trust Administrator or the Trustee is obligated to register or qualify any such 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 Servicer against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of any such transfer of any Ownership Interest in any Private Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate, except with respect to the initial transfer of any such Ownership Interest by the Depositor, such transfer shall be required to be made in reliance upon Rule 144A under the 1933 Act, and the transferee will be deemed to have made each of the transferee representations and warranties set forth Exhibit F-1 hereto in respect of such interest as if it was evidenced by a Definitive Certificate. The Certificate Owner of any such Ownership Interest in any such Book-Entry Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee and the Depositor against any liability that may result if the transfer is not so exempt or is not made in accordance with such federal and state laws.

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

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 on which the Trust Administrator, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Servicer may rely, to the effect that the purchase of such Certificates is permissible under ERISA and the Code, will not constitute or result in any non-exempt prohibited transaction under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Trust Fund to any obligation or liability (including obligations or liabilities under ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code) in addition to those undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Trust Fund. Neither a certification nor an Opinion of Counsel will be required 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 Residual Certificates, the first transfer by 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 Class CE, Class P or Residual 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 Depositor or any Affiliate thereof shall have deemed to have represented that such Affiliate 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 Depositor of the status of such transferee as an affiliate of the Depositor.

For so long as the Supplemental Interest Trust is in existence, each beneficial owner of a Floating Rate Certificate or any interest therein, shall be deemed to have represented, by virtue of its acquisition or holding of such Certificate, or interest therein, that either (i) it is not a Plan or (ii) (A) it is an accredited investor within the meaning of Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2002-41 (the “Exemption”) and (B) the acquisition and holding of such Certificate and the separate right to receive payments from the Supplemental Interest Trust are eligible for the exemptive relief available under one of PTCE 84-14, 90-1, 91-38, 95-60 or 96-23 or, in the case of a Class M-11 Certificate, PTCE 95-60.

Each beneficial owner of a Mezzanine Certificate or any interest therein that is acquired after the termination of the Supplemental Interest Trust 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 a person using assets of a Plan, (ii) other than for a Class M-11 Certificate, it has acquired and is holding such Certificate in reliance on the Exemption, and that it understands that there are certain conditions to the availability of the Exemption, including that the Certificate must be rated, at the time of purchase, not lower than “BBB-” (or its equivalent) by S&P, Fitch Ratings or Moody’s and the Certificate is so rated or (iii) (1) it is an insurance company, (2) the source of funds used to acquire or hold the Certificate or interest therein is an “insurance company general account”, as such term is defined in PTCE 95-60, and (3) the conditions in Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60 have been satisfied.

If 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 three paragraphs shall indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator 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.

No transfer of the Class CE Certificates shall be made unless the transferee of such Certificates provides to the Trustee the appropriate tax certification form (i.e., IRS Form W-9 or IRS Form W-8BEN, W-8IMY, W-8EXP or W-8ECI, as applicable (or any successor form 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, W-8EXP or W-8ECI, as applicable (or any successor form thereto), has become obsolete or incorrect. Upon receipt of any such tax certification form from a transferee of any Class CE Certificate, the trustee shall provide a copy of such tax certification form to the Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee. The Supplemental Interest Trust Trustee shall provide to the Swap Provider a copy of any such tax certification form received from the Trustee.

(c) (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:

(A) 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.

(B) 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.

(C) 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.

(D) Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate shall agree (x) to require a Transfer Affidavit and Agreement from any other Person to whom such Person attempts to transfer its Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate and (y) not to transfer its Ownership Interest unless it provides a transferor affidavit (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.

(E) Each Person holding or acquiring an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, by purchasing an Ownership Interest in such Certificate, agrees to give the 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) (A) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 5.02(d), then the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored, to the extent permitted by law, to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of such Transfer of such Residual Certificate. The 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.

(B) If any purported Transferee shall become a Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section 5.02(d) and to the extent that the retroactive restoration of the rights of the Holder of such Residual Certificate as described in clause (iii)(A) above shall be invalid, illegal or unenforceable, then the 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 Trust Administrator 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 fund, partnership, trust, estate or organization described in Section 1381 of the Code that holds an Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate having as among its record holders at any time any Person which is a Disqualified Organization. Reasonable compensation for providing such information may be accepted by the 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 at the expense of the party seeking to modify, add to or eliminate any such provision the following:

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

(B) an Opinion of Counsel, in form and substance satisfactory to the Trust Administrator, 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 (x) 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 (y) a Person other than the prospective transferee to be subject to a REMIC-tax caused by the Transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee.

(d) 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 8.12, 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.

(e) 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 8.12. Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, upon notice from the Trust Administrator, 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 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 three separate Certificates, each representing such Holder’s respective Percentage Interest in the Class R-IV Interest, the Class R-V Interest and the Class R-VI Interest, respectively, in each case that was evidenced by the Class R-X Certificate being exchanged.

(f) 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.

(g) 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 receive evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of actual knowledge by the Trust Administrator that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, 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 Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator 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 Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 5.05

Certain Available Information.

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: (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 pursuant to Section 10.01(h), (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 P&I Advance or Servicing Advance was, or if made, would be a Nonrecoverable Advance 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).

None of the Depositor, the Servicer (and any Sub-Servicer), the Credit Risk Manager or any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Depositor, the Servicer (and any Sub-Servicer) or the Credit Risk Manager 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 the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, as applicable, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Depositor, the Servicer (and any Sub-Servicer), the Credit Risk Manager or any such person against any breach of warranties, representations or covenants made herein, or against any specific liability imposed on the Servicer (and any Sub-Servicer) pursuant hereto or the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, as applicable, or against any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder or the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Depositor, the Servicer (and any Sub-Servicer), the Credit Risk Manager and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Credit Risk Manager may rely in good faith on any document of any kind which, prima facie, is properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder or the related Sub-Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

Any such determination pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding sentence permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect obtained at the expense of the Servicer and delivered to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator. No resignation of the Servicer shall become effective until the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, in accordance with Section 7.02 hereof, or a successor servicer shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties, liabilities (other than those liabilities arising prior to the appointment of such successor) and obligations under this Agreement.

Except as expressly provided herein, the Servicer shall not assign or transfer any of its rights, benefits or privileges hereunder to any other Person, nor delegate to or subcontract with, nor authorize or appoint any other Person to perform any of the duties, covenants or obligations to be performed by the Servicer hereunder.

SECTION 6.05

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 Trustee and the Trust Administrator, upon reasonable notice, during normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Servicer (and any such Sub-Servicer) in respect of the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Servicer (and those of any such Sub-Servicer) responsible for such obligations. Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator its (and any such Sub-Servicer’s) most recent financial statements of the parent company of the Servicer and such other information relating to the Servicer’s capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement that it possesses. To the extent such information is not otherwise available to the public, the Depositor, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator 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, rating agencies or reinsurers or (ii) pursuant to any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree of any court or governmental authority having jurisdiction over the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Trust Fund, and in either case, the Depositor, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, 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 the Servicer under this Agreement or exercise the rights of any of the Servicer under this Agreement; provided that the Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations under this Agreement by virtue of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. The Depositor shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Servicer and is not obligated to supervise the performance of the Servicer under this Agreement or otherwise.

SECTION 6.06

Duties of the Credit Risk Manager.

For the Sponsor, on behalf of the Trust, 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 for all information and data (including loss and delinquency information and data) relating to the servicing of the related 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 Trust Administrator 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 6.07

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 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 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 pursuant to the applicable Credit Risk Management Agreement in the performance of its duties thereunder and hereunder.

SECTION 6.08

If a Servicer Event of Default described in clauses (i) through (v) of this Section shall occur, then, and in each and every such case, so long as such Servicer Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Depositor or the Trustee may, and at the written direction of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of Voting Rights, the Trustee shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer (and to the Depositor and the Trust Administrator if given by the Trustee or to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator if given by the Depositor), terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer in its capacity as a 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 (vi) hereof shall occur and shall not have been remedied during the applicable time period set forth in clause (vi) above, the Trust Administrator shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer and the Depositor, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer in its capacity as a Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof. On or after the receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates (other than as a Holder of any Certificate) or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Trust Administrator pursuant to and under this Section and, without limitation, the Trust Administrator is hereby authorized and empowered, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, to execute and deliver on behalf of and at the expense of the Servicer, any and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise. The Servicer agrees, at its sole cost and expense, promptly (and in any event no later than ten Business Days subsequent to such notice) to provide the Trust Administrator 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 Trust Administrator 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 Trust Administrator 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 P&I Advances or otherwise, and shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03, notwithstanding any such termination, with respect to events occurring prior to such termination). For purposes of this Section 7.01, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall not be deemed to have knowledge of a Servicer Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as the case may be, assigned to and working in the Trustee’s or the Trust Administrator’s Corporate Trust Office, as applicable, has actual knowledge thereof or unless written notice of any event which is in fact such a Servicer Event of Default is received by the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, and such notice references the Certificates, the Trust Fund or this Agreement.

SECTION 7.02

Trust Administrator or Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

(a) On and after the time the Servicer receives a notice of termination, the Trust Administrator (and in the event the Trust Administrator fails in its obligation, the Trustee) shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Agreement, the Servicer shall not have the right to withdraw any funds from the Collection Account without the consent of the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto and arising thereafter placed on the Servicer (except for any representations or warranties of the Servicer under this Agreement, the responsibilities, duties and liabilities contained in Section 2.03(c) and its obligation to deposit amounts in respect of losses pursuant to Section 3.12) by the terms and provisions hereof including, without limitation, the Servicer’s obligations to make P&I Advances pursuant to Section 4.03; provided, however, that if the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, is prohibited by law or regulation from obligating itself to make advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans, then the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, shall not be obligated to make P&I 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 shall not be considered a default by the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, as successor to the Servicer hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to the Servicing Fees and all funds relating to the Mortgage Loans to which the Servicer would have been entitled if it had continued to act hereunder (other than amounts which were due or would become due to the Servicer prior to its termination or resignation). Notwithstanding the above, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, may, if it shall be unwilling to so act, or shall, if it is unable to so act or if it is prohibited by law from making advances regarding delinquent mortgage loans, or if the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights so request in writing to the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, promptly appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, an established mortgage loan servicing institution acceptable to the Rating Agencies 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. No appointment of a successor 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 Trust Administrator 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 Trust Administrator, the Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer under this Agreement, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided.

(b) In connection with the termination or resignation of the Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor servicer, including the Trust Administrator or the Trustee, as applicable, if the Trust Administrator 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 Trust Administrator 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(b).

SECTION 7.03

Notification to Certificateholders.

(a) Upon any termination of a Servicer pursuant to Section 7.01 above or any appointment of a successor to a Servicer pursuant to Section 7.02 above, the Trust Administrator shall give prompt written notice thereof to 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 five days after a Responsible Officer of the Trust Administrator becomes aware of the occurrence of such an event, the Trust Administrator shall transmit by mail to all Holders of Certificates notice of each such occurrence, unless such default or Servicer Event of Default shall have been cured or waived.

SECTION 7.04

Waiver of Servicer Events of Default.

Subject to Section 11.09(d), the Holders representing at least 66% of the Voting Rights evidenced by all Classes of Certificates affected by any default or Servicer Event of Default hereunder may waive such default or Servicer Event of Default; provided, however, that a default or Servicer Event of Default under clause (i) or (vi) of Section 7.01 may be waived only by all of the Holders of the Regular Certificates. Upon any such waiver of a default or Servicer Event of Default, such default or Servicer Event of Default shall cease to exist and shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose hereunder. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Servicer Event of Default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

ARTICLE VIII

CONCERNING THE TRUSTEE AND THE TRUST ADMINISTRATOR

SECTION 8.01

Duties of Trustee and Trust Administrator.

Each of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, prior to the occurrence of a Servicer Event of Default and after the curing of all Servicer Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement. During a Servicer Event of Default, 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 person would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of such person’s own affairs. Any permissive right of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator enumerated in this Agreement shall not be construed as a duty.

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, it shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected, and if the instrument is not corrected to its satisfaction, it will provide notice thereof to the Certificateholders.

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

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

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

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

(iv) Neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be required to take notice or be deemed to have notice or knowledge of any default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as the case may be, shall have received written notice thereof or a Responsible Officer shall have actual knowledge thereof. In the absence of receipt of such notice or actual knowledge, the Trustee or Trust Administrator, as applicable, may conclusively assume there is no default.

Neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, in each case not including expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee’s or the Trust Administrator’s, as the case may be, performance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or adequate indemnity against such risk or liability is not reasonably assured to it. With respect to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator, none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as the case may be, to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

SECTION 8.02

Certain Matters Affecting the Trustee and the Trust Administrator.

(a) Except as otherwise provided in Section 8.01:

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

(vi) Each of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator may execute any of the trusts or powers hereunder or perform any duties hereunder either directly or by or through agents or attorneys and neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be responsible for any misconduct or negligence on the part of any agent or attorney appointed with due care;

(vii) Neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be personally liable for any loss resulting from the investment of funds held in the Collection Account at the direction of the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.12; and

(viii) Any request or direction of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Certificateholders mentioned herein shall be sufficiently evidenced in writing.

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

SECTION 8.03

Neither the Trustee nor Trust Administrator Liable for Certificates or Mortgage Loans.

The recitals contained herein and in the Certificates (other than the signature of the Trust Administrator, on behalf of the Trustee, the authentication of the Trust Administrator on the Certificates, the acknowledgments of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator contained in Article II and the representations and warranties of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator in Section 8.12) shall be taken as the statements of the Depositor and neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator assumes any responsibility for their correctness. Neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator makes any representations or warranties as to the validity or sufficiency of this Agreement (other than as specifically set forth in Section 8.12) or of the Certificates (other than the signature of the Trust Administrator and authentication of the Trust Administrator on the Certificates) or of any Mortgage Loan or related document or of MERS or the MERS System. Neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall be accountable for the use or application by the Depositor of any of the Certificates or of the proceeds of such Certificates, or for the use or application of any funds paid to the Depositor or the Servicer in respect of the Mortgage Loans or deposited in or withdrawn from the Collection Account by the Servicer.

SECTION 8.04

Each of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Custodian and any director, officer, employee or agent of any of them, as applicable, shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense (not including expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Custodian, as applicable, including the compensation and the expenses and disbursements of its agents and counsel, in the ordinary course of the Trustee’s, the Trust Administrator’s or the Custodian’s, as the case may be, performance in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement) incurred by the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Custodian, as applicable, in connection with any claim or legal action or any pending or threatened claim or legal action arising out of or in connection with the acceptance or administration of its obligations and duties under this Agreement (or, in the case of the Custodian, under the Custodial Agreement), other than any loss, liability or expense (i) resulting from any breach of the Servicer’s obligations in connection with this Agreement for which the Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee and the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 8.05(b) and Section 10.03 (and in the case of the Trustee, resulting from any breach of the Trust Administrator’s obligations in connection with this Agreement for which the Trust Administrator shall indemnify the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03(a) and in the case of the Trust Administrator, resulting from any breach of the Trustee’s obligations in connection with this Agreement for which the Trustee shall indemnify the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 10.03(c)), (ii) that constitutes a specific liability of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, pursuant to Section 10.01(g) or (iii) any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder (or, in the case of the Custodian, under the Custodial Agreement) or as a result of a breach of the Trustee’s or the Trust Administrator’s obligations under Article X hereof (or, in the case of the Custodian, as a result of a breach of the Custodian’s obligations under the Custodial Agreement).

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

In case at any time the Trustee or the Trust Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of this Section, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as the case may be, shall resign immediately in the manner and with the effect specified in Section 8.07.

SECTION 8.07

Resignation and Removal of the Trustee and the Trust Administrator.

Either of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator may at any time resign and be discharged from the trust hereby created by giving written notice thereof to the Depositor, the Servicer and the Certificateholders and, if the Trustee is resigning, to the Trust Administrator, or, if the Trust Administrator is resigning, to the Trustee. Upon receiving such notice of resignation, the Depositor shall promptly appoint a successor trustee or trust administrator (which may be the same Person in the event both the Trustee and the Trust Administrator resign or are removed) by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the resigning Trustee or Trust Administrator and to the successor trustee or trust administrator, as applicable. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders, the Trustee or Trust Administrator, as applicable, and the Servicer by the Depositor. If no successor trustee or trust administrator shall have been so appointed and have accepted appointment within 30 days after the giving of such notice of resignation, the resigning Trustee or Trust Administrator, as applicable, may petition any court of competent jurisdiction for the appointment of a successor trustee or trust administrator, as applicable.

If at any time the Trustee or the Trust Administrator shall cease to be eligible in accordance with the provisions of Section 8.06 and shall fail to resign after written request therefor by the Depositor (or in the case of the Trust Administrator, the Trustee), or if at any time the Trustee or the Trust Administrator shall become incapable of acting, or shall be adjudged bankrupt or insolvent, or a receiver of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator or of its property shall be appointed, or any public officer shall take charge or control of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator or of its property or affairs for the purpose of rehabilitation, conservation or liquidation, then the Depositor (or in the case of the Trust Administrator, the Trustee) may remove the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, and appoint a successor trustee or trust administrator (which may be the same Person in the event both the Trustee and the Trust Administrator resign or are removed) by written instrument, in duplicate, which instrument shall be delivered to the Trustee or Trust Administrator so removed and to the successor trustee or trust administrator. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders, the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as applicable, and the Servicer by the Depositor.

The Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 51% of the Voting Rights may at any time remove the Trustee or the Trust Administrator and appoint a successor trustee or trust administrator by written instrument or instruments, in triplicate, signed by such Holders or their attorneys-in-fact duly authorized, one complete set of which instruments shall be delivered to the Depositor, one complete set to the Trustee or the Trust Administrator, as the case may be, so removed and one complete set to the successor so appointed. A copy of such instrument shall be delivered to the Certificateholders and the Servicer by the Depositor.

If no successor Trust Administrator shall have been appointed and shall have accepted appointment within 60 days after the Trust Administrator ceases to be the Trust Administrator pursuant to this Section 8.07, then the Trustee shall perform the duties of the Trust Administrator pursuant to this Agreement. The Trustee shall notify the Rating Agencies of any change of Trust Administrator.

Any resignation or removal of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator and appointment of a successor trustee or trust administrator, as the case may be, pursuant to any of the provisions of this Section shall not become effective until acceptance of appointment by the successor trustee or trust administrator as provided in Section 8.08. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event the Trust Administrator advises the Trustee that it is unable to continue to perform its obligations pursuant to the terms of this Agreement prior to the appointment of a successor, the Trustee shall be obligated to perform such obligations until a new trust administrator is appointed. Such performance shall be without prejudice to any claim by a party hereto or beneficiary hereof resulting from the Trust Administrator’s breach of its obligations hereunder. As compensation therefor, the Trustee shall be entitled to all fees the Trust Administrator would have been entitled to if it had continued to act hereunder.

SECTION 8.08

Successor Trustee or Trust Administrator.

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

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

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

Any Person appointed as successor trustee pursuant to this Agreement shall also be required to serve as successor successor supplemental interest trust trustee under the Interest Rate Swap Agreement.

SECTION 8.09

Merger or Consolidation of Trustee or Trust Administrator.

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

SECTION 8.10

Appointment of Co-Trustee or Separate Trustee.

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

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

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

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

SECTION 9.01

Termination Upon Repurchase or Liquidation of the Mortgage Loans.

(a) Subject to Section 9.02, the respective obligations and responsibilities under this Agreement of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator with respect to the Mortgage Loans (other than the obligations of the Servicer to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 8.05 and of the Servicer to provide for and the Trust Administrator to make payments in respect of the REMIC I Regular Interests and the Classes of Certificates as hereinafter set forth) shall terminate upon payment to the Certificateholders and the deposit of all amounts held by or on behalf of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator and required hereunder to be so paid or deposited on the Distribution Date coinciding with or following the earlier to occur of (i) the purchase by the Terminator (on a servicing retained basis) of all Mortgage Loans and each related REO Property remaining in REMIC I and (ii) the final payment or other liquidation (or any advance with respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan or related REO Property remaining in REMIC I; provided, however, that in no event shall the trust created hereby continue beyond the earlier of (a) the expiration of 21 years from the death of the last survivor of the descendants of Joseph P. Kennedy, the late ambassador of the United States to the Court of St. James, living on the date hereof and (b) the Latest Possible Maturity Date (as defined in the Preliminary Statement).

Subject to Section 3.10 hereof, the purchase by the Terminator of all Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I shall be at a price equal to the greater of (i) the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and the appraised value of any REO Properties (such appraisal to be conducted by an appraiser mutually agreed upon by the Servicer and the Trust Administrator) and (ii) the fair market value of the Mortgage Loans and the REO Properties (as determined by the Servicer, with the consent of the Trust Administrator as of the close of business on the third Business Day next preceding the date upon which notice of any such termination is furnished to the related Certificateholders pursuant to Section 9.01(c)), in each case plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the weighted average of the Mortgage Rates through the end of the Due Period preceding the final Distribution Date plus unreimbursed Servicing Advances allocable to such Mortgage Loans and REO Properties and any accrued and unpaid Net WAC Rate Carryover Amounts and any Swap Termination Payment payable to the Swap Provider (the “Termination Price”); provided, however, such option may only be exercised if the Termination Price is sufficient to result in the payment of all interest accrued on, as well as amounts necessary to retire the principal balance of, each class of notes issued pursuant to the Indenture.

(b) The Servicer shall have the right (the party exercising such right, the “Terminator”), to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) of the preceding paragraph no later than the Determination Date in the month immediately preceding the Distribution Date on which the Certificates will be retired; provided, however, that the Terminator may elect to purchase all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I pursuant to clause (i) above only if the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in the Trust Fund at the time of such election is reduced to less than 10% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date. By acceptance of a Residual Certificate, the Holders of the Residual Certificates agree, in connection with any termination hereunder, to assign and transfer any amounts in excess of par, and to the extent received in respect of such termination, to pay any such amounts to the Holders of the Class CE Certificates.

In connection with any termination pursuant to this Section 9.01(b):

(i) At least twenty (20) days prior to the latest date on which notice of such optional termination is required to be mailed to the Certificateholders pursuant to Section 9.01(c), the Terminator shall notify in writing (which may be done in electronic format) the Swap Provider, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee of the final Distribution Date on which the Terminator intends to terminate the Trust Fund;

(ii) No later than 4:00 pm (New York City time) four (4) Business Days prior to the final Distribution Date specified in the notices required pursuant to Sections 9.01(c), the Swap Provider shall notify in writing (which may be done in electronic format) the Terminator, the Trust Administrator and the Trustee of the amount of the Estimated Swap Termination Payment; and

(iii) Three (3) Business Days prior to the final Distribution Date specified in the notices required pursuant to Sections 9.01(c), (x) the Terminator shall, no later than 1:00 pm (New York City time) on such day, deliver to the Trust Administrator and the Trust Administrator shall deposit funds in the Distribution Account in an amount equal to the sum of the Termination Price (which shall be based on the Estimated Swap Termination Payment), and (y) if the Trust Administrator shall have determined that the all of the requirements for Optional Termination have been met, including without limitation the deposit required pursuant to the immediately preceding clause (x) as well as the requirements specified in Section 9.01(c), then the Trust Administrator shall, on the same Business Day, provide written notice (which may be done in electronic format) to the Terminator and the Swap Provider confirming (a) its receipt of the Termination Price (which shall be based on the Estimated Swap Termination Payment), and (b) that all other requirements specified in Section 9.02 have been met (the “Optional Termination Notice”). Upon the delivery of the Optional Termination Notice by the Trust Administrator pursuant to the preceding sentence, (i) the optional termination shall become irrevocable, (ii) the notice to Certificateholders of such optional termination provided pursuant to Section 9.01(c) shall become unrescindable, (iii) the Swap Provider shall determine the Swap Termination Payment in accordance with the Interest Rate Swap Agreement (which shall not exceed the Estimated Swap Termination Payment), and (iv) the Swap Provider shall provide to the Trust Administrator written notice of the amount of the Swap Termination Payment not later than two (2) Business Days prior to the final Distribution Date specified in the notices required pursuant to Sections 9.01(c).

(c) Notice of the liquidation of any Certificates shall be given promptly by the Trust Administrator by letter to the related Certificateholders and the Swap Provider mailed (a) in the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of the Mortgage Loans and each related REO Property remaining in REMIC I by the Terminator, not earlier than the 15th day and not later than the 25th day of the month next preceding the month of the final distribution on the related Certificates or (b) otherwise during the month of such final distribution on or before the Determination Date in such month, in each case specifying (i) the Distribution Date upon which REMIC I will terminate and final payment of the Certificates and will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Trust Administrator therein designated, (ii) the amount of any such final payment, (iii) that no interest shall accrue in respect of the Certificates from and after the Interest Accrual Period relating to the final Distribution Date therefor and (iv) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, payments being made only upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the office of the Trust Administrator. In the event such notice is given in connection with the purchase of all of the Mortgage Loans and each REO Property remaining in REMIC I by the Terminator, the Terminator shall deliver to the Trust Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account not later than the last Business Day of the month next preceding the month in which such distribution will be made an amount in immediately available funds equal to the Termination Price. Upon certification to the Trust Administrator and the Trustee by a Servicing Officer of the making of such final deposit, the Trust Administrator shall promptly release or cause to be released to the related Terminator the Mortgage Files for the remaining Mortgage Loans and the Trustee shall execute all assignments, endorsements and other instruments delivered to it which are necessary to effectuate such transfer.

(d) Upon receipt of notice by the Trust Administrator of the presentation of the Certificates by the Certificateholders on the related final Distribution Date to the Trust Administrator, the Trust Administrator shall distribute to each Certificateholder so presenting and surrendering its Certificates the amount otherwise distributable on such Distribution Date in accordance with Section 4.01 in respect of the Certificates so presented and surrendered. Any funds not distributed to any Holder or Holders of Certificates being retired on such Distribution Date because of the failure of such Holder or Holders to tender their Certificates shall, on such date, be set aside and held in trust by the 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 9.01 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 remaining related non-tendering Certificateholders concerning surrender of their Certificates. The costs and expenses of maintaining the funds in trust and of contacting such Certificateholders shall be paid out of the assets remaining in the trust funds. If within one year after the final notice any such Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trust Administrator shall pay to Citigroup Global Markets Inc. 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 9.01.

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

SECTION 9.02

Additional Termination Requirements.

(f) The Trustee, the Trust Administrator, the Servicer and the Holders of Certificates shall take such action or cause the Trust REMIC to take such action as shall be necessary to create or maintain the status thereof as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions. The Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Servicer shall not take any action or cause the Trust Fund to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of each Trust REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund (including but not limited to the tax on prohibited transactions as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code and the tax on contributions to a REMIC set forth in Section 860G(d) of the Code) (either such event, an “Adverse REMIC Event”) unless the Trustee has received an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Trust Administrator (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action but in no event at the expense of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator) to the effect that the contemplated action will not, with respect to any Trust REMIC, endanger such status or result in the imposition of such a tax, nor shall the Servicer take or fail to take any action (whether or not authorized hereunder) as to which the Trustee or the Trust Administrator has advised it in writing that it has received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur with respect to such action; provided that the Servicer may conclusively rely on such Opinion of Counsel and shall incur no liability for its action or failure to act in accordance with such Opinion of Counsel. In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any Trust REMIC or the respective assets of each, or causing any Trust REMIC to take any action, which is not contemplated under the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer consult with the Trustee and the Trust Administrator or their designee, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any Trust REMIC and the Servicer shall not take any such action or cause any Trust REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee or the Trust Administrator has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur; provided that the Servicer may conclusively rely on such writing and shall incur no liability for its action or failure to act in accordance with such writing. The Trust Administrator and the Trustee may consult with counsel to make such written advice, and the cost of same shall be borne by the party seeking to take the action not permitted by this Agreement, but in no event shall such cost be an expense of the Trustee or the Trust Administrator. At all times as may be required by the Code, the Trustee, the Trust Administrator and the Servicer will ensure that substantially all of the assets of REMIC I will consist of “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code, to the extent such obligations are within the Trustee’s, Trust Administrator’s or Servicer’s, as applicable, control and not otherwise inconsistent with the terms of this Agreement.

(g) In the event that any tax is imposed on “prohibited transactions” of the REMIC created hereunder as defined in Section 860F(a)(2) of the Code, on the “net income from foreclosure property” of the REMIC as defined in Section 860G(c) of the Code, on any contributions to the REMIC after the Startup Day therefor pursuant to Section 860G(d) of the Code, or any other tax is imposed by the Code or any applicable provisions of state or local tax laws, such tax shall be charged (i) to the Trust Administrator pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trust Administrator of any of its obligations under this Article X, (ii) to the Trustee pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Trustee of any of its obligations under this Article X, (iii) to the Servicer pursuant to Section 10.03 hereof, if such tax arises out of or results from a breach by the Servicer of any of its obligations under Article III or this Article X, or otherwise (iv) against amounts on deposit in the Distribution Account and shall be paid by withdrawal therefrom.

(h) The Trust Administrator shall prepare and forward to the Certificateholders, upon written request, and to the Internal Revenue Service and, if necessary, state tax authorities, all information returns and reports as and when required to be provided to them under the Code, including, but not limited to, the calculation of any original issue discount using the prepayment assumption (as described in the Prospectus Supplement).

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

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

(k) None of the Trustee, the Trust Administrator or the Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which any Trust REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services nor permit either such REMIC to receive any income from assets other than “qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

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

SECTION 10.03

Servicer, Trustee and Trust Administrator Indemnification.

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

No amendment shall be deemed to adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Certificateholder who shall have consented thereto, and no Opinion of Counsel or Rating Agency confirmation shall be required to address the effect of any such amendment on any such consenting Certificateholder.

This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator with the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Swap Provider or Holders of Certificates; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate, (ii) adversely affect in any material respect the interests of the Swap Provider or Holders of any Class of Certificates (as evidenced by either (i) an Opinion of Counsel delivered to the Trustee and Trust Administrator or (ii) written notice to the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator from the Rating Agencies that such action will not result in the reduction or withdrawal of the rating of any outstanding Class of Certificates with respect to which it is a Rating Agency) in a manner, other than as described in (i), without the consent of the Holders of Certificates of such Class evidencing at least 66% of the Voting Rights allocated to such Class, or (iii) modify the consents required by the immediately preceding clauses (i) and (ii) without the consent of the Holders of all Certificates then outstanding. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 11.01, Certificates registered in the name of the Depositor or the Servicer or any Affiliate thereof shall be entitled to Voting Rights with respect to matters affecting such Certificates.

Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, neither the Trustee nor the Trust Administrator shall consent to any amendment to this Agreement unless it shall have first received an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such amendment will not result in the imposition of any tax on any Trust REMIC pursuant to the REMIC Provisions or cause any Trust REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.

Prior to executing any amendment pursuant to this Section, the Trustee and the Trust Administrator shall be entitled to receive an Opinion of Counsel (provided by the Person requesting such amendment) to the effect that such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any of the other provisions of this Section 11.01, none of the Depositor, the Trust Administrator or the Trustee shall enter into any amendment to this Agreement that could reasonably be expected to have a material adverse effect on the interests of the Swap Provider hereunder (excluding, for the avoidance of doubt, any amendment to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement that is entered into solely for the purpose of appointing a successor servicer, trust administrator, trustee or other service provider) without the prior written consent of the Swap Provider, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed.

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

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

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

For the purpose of facilitating the recordation of this Agreement as herein provided and for other purposes, this Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts, each of which counterparts shall be deemed to be an original, and such counterparts shall constitute but one and the same instrument.

SECTION 11.03

Limitation on Rights of Certificateholders.

The death or incapacity of any Certificateholder shall not operate to terminate this Agreement or the Trust Fund, nor entitle such Certificateholder’s legal representatives or heirs to claim an accounting or to take any action or proceeding in any court for a partition or winding up of the Trust Fund, nor otherwise affect the rights, obligations and liabilities of the parties hereto or any of them.

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

SECTION 11.10

Third Party Rights.

The Swap Provider shall be deemed a third-party beneficiary of this Agreement to the same extent as if it were a party hereto, and shall have the right to enforce the provisions of this Agreement.

SECTION 11.11

Intention of the Parties and Interpretation.

Each of the parties acknowledges and agrees that the purpose of Sections 3.20, 3.21 and 4.07 of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB promulgated by the SEC under the 1934 Act (17 C.F.R. §§ 229.1100 - 229.1123), as such may be amended from time to time and subject to clarification and interpretive advice as may be issued by the staff of the SEC from time to time. Therefore, each of the parties agrees that (a) the obligations of the parties hereunder shall be interpreted in such a manner as to accomplish that purpose, (b) the parties’ obligations hereunder will be supplemented and modified as necessary to be consistent with any such amendments, interpretive advice or guidance, convention or consensus among active participants in the asset-backed securities markets, opinion of counsel, or otherwise in respect of the requirements of Regulation AB, (c) the parties shall comply with requests made by the Depositor for delivery of additional or different information, to the extent that such information is available or reasonably attainable, as the Depositor may determine in good faith is necessary to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, and (d) no amendment of this Agreement shall be required to effect any such changes in the parties’ obligations as are necessary to accommodate evolving interpretations of the provisions of Regulation AB; provided, however, that any such changes shall require the consent of each of the parties hereto.

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

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

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

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

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

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

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