(e) Upon notice pursuant to Section 6(d) above, the Seller shall, not later than 90 days from the earlier of the Seller's receipt of the notice or, in the case of a Defect or Breach relating to the Mortgage Loan not being a "qualified mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, but without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) that causes a defective mortgage loan to be treated as a qualified mortgage, the Seller's discovery of such Breach or Defect (the "Initial Resolution Period"), (i) cure such Defect or Breach, as the case may be, in all material respects, (ii) repurchase the Mortgage Loan at the applicable Repurchase Price (as defined below) or (iii) substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan (as defined below) for the Mortgage Loan (provided that in no event shall any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of the Closing Date) and pay the Master Servicer for deposit into the Certificate Account, any Substitution Shortfall Amount (as defined below) in connection therewith; provided, however, that, except with respect to a Defect resulting solely from the failure by the Seller to deliver to the Trustee or Custodian the actual policy of lender's title insurance required pursuant to clause (ix) of the definition of Mortgage File by a date not later than 12 months following the Closing Date, if such Breach or Defect is capable of being cured but not within the Initial Resolution Period, and the Seller has commenced and is diligently proceeding with the cure of such Breach or Defect within such the Initial Resolution Period, the Seller shall have an additional 90 days commencing immediately upon the expiration of the Initial Resolution Period (the "Extended Resolution Period") to complete such cure (or, failing such cure, to repurchase the Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan as described above); and provided, further, that with respect to the Extended Resolution Period the Seller shall have delivered an officer's certificate to the Trustee setting forth the reason such Breach or Defect is not capable of being cured within the Initial Resolution Period and what actions the Seller is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that the Seller anticipates that such Breach or Defect will be cured within the Extended Resolution Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Defect or Breach which causes the Mortgage Loan not to be a "qualified mortgage" (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) which causes a defective mortgage loan to be treated as a qualified mortgage) shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests of the holders of the Certificates therein, and the Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased or a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan substituted in lieu thereof without regard to the extended cure period described in the preceding sentence. If the Mortgage Loan is to be repurchased, the Seller shall remit the Repurchase Price (defined below) in immediately available funds to the Trustee. Any of the following will cause a document in the Mortgage File to be deemed to have a Defect and to be conclusively presumed to materially and adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders in the Mortgage Loan and to be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests of the Certificateholders in and the value of the Mortgage Loan: (a) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage Note, unless the Mortgage File contains a signed lost note affidavit and indemnity with a copy of the Mortgage Note that appears to be regular on its face; (b) the absence from the Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage that appears to be regular on its face, unless there is included in the Mortgage File a certified copy of the Mortgage and a certificate stating that the original signed Mortgage was sent for recordation; (c) the absence from the Mortgage File of the lender's title insurance policy (or if the policy has not yet been issued, an original copy of a "marked up" written commitment or the pro forma or specimen title insurance policy) called for by clause (ix) of the definition of "Mortgage File" in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement; (d) the absence from the Mortgage File of any required letter of credit; or (e) the absence from the Mortgage File of any intervening assignments required to create a complete chain of assignments to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, unless there is included in the Mortgage File a certified copy of the intervening assignment and a certificate stating that the original intervening assignments were sent for recordation; provided, however, that no Defect (except a Defect previously described in clauses (a) through (e) above) shall be considered to materially and adversely affect the value of the Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Trustee or Certificateholders unless the document with respect to which the Defect exists is required in connection with an imminent enforcement of the Mortgagee's rights or remedies under the Mortgage Loan, defending any claim asserted by any borrower or third party with respect to the Mortgage Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any collateral securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant servicing obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery of executed escrow instructions or a commitment to issue a lender's title insurance policy, as provided in clause (ix) of the definition of "Mortgage File" in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, in lieu of the delivery of the actual policy of lender's title insurance, shall not be considered a Defect or Breach with respect to the Mortgage File if such actual policy is delivered to the Trustee or a Custodian on its behalf not later than 12 months following the Closing Date. If (i) the Mortgage Loan is required to be repurchased or substituted for in the manner described in the first paragraph of this Section 6(e), (ii) the Mortgage Loan is a Crossed Loan, and (iii) the applicable Defect or Breach does not constitute a Defect or Breach, as the case may be, as to any other Crossed Loan in such Crossed Group (without regard to this paragraph), then the applicable Defect or Breach, as the case may be, will be deemed to constitute a Defect or Breach, as the case may be, as to each other Crossed Loan in the Crossed Group for purposes of this paragraph, and the Seller will be required to repurchase or substitute for all of the remaining Crossed Loans in the related Crossed Group as provided in the first paragraph of this Section 6(e) unless such other Crossed Loans in such Crossed Group satisfy the Crossed Loan Repurchase Criteria and satisfy all other criteria for substitution and repurchase of Mortgage Loan set forth herein. In the event that the remaining Crossed Loans satisfy the aforementioned criteria, the Seller may elect either to repurchase or substitute for only the affected Crossed Loan as to which the related Breach or Defect exists or to repurchase or substitute for all of the Crossed Loans in the related Crossed Group. The Seller shall be responsible for the cost of any Appraisal required to be obtained by the Master Servicer to determine if the Crossed Loan Repurchase Criteria have been satisfied, so long as the scope and cost of such Appraisal has been approved by the Seller (such approval not to be unreasonably withheld). The "Repurchase Price" with respect to the Mortgage Loan or REO Loan to be repurchased pursuant to this Agreement and Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, shall have the meaning given to the term "Purchase Price" in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. A "Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan" with respect to the Mortgage Loan or REO Loan to be substituted pursuant to this Agreement and Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, shall have the meaning given to such term in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. A "Substitution Shortfall Amount" with respect to the Mortgage Loan or REO Loan to be substituted pursuant to this Agreement and Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, shall have the meaning given to such term in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. In connection with any repurchase or substitution of the Mortgage Loan contemplated hereby, (i) the Depositor shall execute and deliver, or cause the execution and delivery of, such endorsements and assignments, without recourse to the Trust, as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller the legal and beneficial ownership of the repurchased Mortgage Loan or replaced Mortgage Loan, as applicable, (ii) the Depositor shall deliver, or cause the delivery, to the Seller of all portions of the Mortgage File and other documents pertaining to the Mortgage Loan possessed by the Trustee, or on the Trustee's behalf, and (iii) the Depositor shall release, or cause to be released, to the Seller any escrow payments and reserve funds held by the Trustee, or on the Trustee's behalf, in respect of such repurchased or replaced Mortgage Loan. (f) The representations and warranties of the parties hereto shall survive the execution and delivery and any termination of this Agreement and shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Mortgage Note or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files. (g) Each party hereby agrees to promptly notify the other party of any breach of a representation or warranty contained in this Section 6. The Seller's obligation to cure any Breach or Defect or repurchase or substitute the Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 6(e) shall constitute the sole remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a Breach or Defect (subject to the last sentence of the first paragraph of Section 6(e)). It is acknowledged and agreed that the representations and warranties are being made for risk allocation purposes; provided, however, that no limitation of remedy is implied with respect to the Seller's breach of its obligation to cure, repurchase or substitute in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

No failure or delay on the part of any party to exercise any right, power or privilege under this Agreement and no course of dealing between the Seller and the Purchaser shall operate as a waiver thereof, nor shall any single or partial exercise of any right, power or privilege under this Agreement preclude any other or further exercise thereof or the exercise of any other right, power or privilege. Except as set forth in Section 6 herein, the rights and remedies herein expressly provided are cumulative and not exclusive of any rights or remedies which any party would otherwise have pursuant to law or equity. No notice to or demand on any party in any case shall entitle such party to any other or further notice or demand in similar or other circumstances, or constitute a waiver of the right of either party to any other or further action in any circumstances without notice or demand.
