SECTION 2.02.  Acceptance by Trustee.

The Trustee hereby accepts its appointment as Custodian hereunder and acknowledges the receipt, subject to the provisions of Section 2.01 and subject to the review described below and any exceptions noted on the exception report described in the next paragraph below, of the documents referred to in Section 2.01 above and all other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” and declares that, in its capacity as Custodian, it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting a Mortgage File, and that it holds or will hold all such assets and such other assets included in the definition of “Trust Fund” in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders.

The Trustee further agrees, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, to review each Mortgage File delivered to it and to certify and deliver to the Depositor, the Seller and the Rating Agencies an interim certification in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-2, within 90 days after the Closing Date (or, with respect to any document delivered after the Startup Day, within 45 days of receipt and with respect to any Qualified Substitute Mortgage, within five Business Days after the assignment thereof) that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan paid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in the exception report annexed thereto as not being covered by such certification), (i) all documents required to be delivered to it pursuant to Section 2.01 of this Agreement are in its possession, (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and have not been mutilated, damaged or torn and relate to such Mortgage Loan and (iii) based on its examination and only as to the foregoing, the information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule that corresponds to items (i) and (ii) of the Mortgage Loan Schedule accurately reflects information set forth in the Mortgage File.  It is herein acknowledged that, in conducting such review, the Trustee is under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.

No later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor and the Seller a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-3 evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.

If, in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the Trustee finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in any material respect, at the conclusion of its review the Trustee  (or the Custodian as its designated agent) shall promptly notify the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Servicer and the Depositor.  In addition, upon the discovery by the Seller or the Depositor (or upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification of such breach) of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan that materially adversely affects such Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Certificateholders in such Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give p rompt written notice to the other parties to this Agreement.

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 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.< /p>

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

(a)

Upon discovery or receipt of written notice of any materially defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or of the breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or in Section 2.04 or Section 2.08 hereof in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects the value of that Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee (or the Custodian as its designated agent) shall promptly notify the Seller of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the Seller deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 90 days from the date that the Seller was notified of such missing document, defect or breach, and if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the Tr ustee shall enforce the Seller’s obligation under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and cause the Seller to repurchase that Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price on or prior to the Determination Date following the expiration of such 90 day period (subject to Section 2.03(e) below); provided, however, that, in connection with any such breach that could not reasonably have been cured within such 90 day period, if the Seller shall have commenced to cure such breach within such 90 day period, the Seller shall be permitted to proceed thereafter diligently and expeditiously to cure the same within the additional period provided under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; and, provided further, that, in the case of the breach of any representation, warranty or covenant made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, which representations, warranties and covenants are also attached hereto as Schedule II, the Seller shall be obligated to cure such breach or purchase the affe cted Mortgage Loans for the Purchase Price or, if the Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Property acquired with respect thereto has been sold, then the Seller shall pay, in lieu of the Purchase Price, any excess of the Purchase Price over the Net Liquidation Proceeds received upon such sale.  The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan or such other amount due shall be deposited in the Distribution Account on or prior to the next Determination Date after the Seller’s obligation to repurchase such Mortgage Loan arises.  The Securities Administrator shall remit to the parties entitled thereto the portions of the Purchase Price, if any specified in clause (iv) and (v) of the definition thereof.  The Trustee, upon receipt of written certification from the Securities Administrator of the related deposit in the Distribution Account, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without re course, as the Seller shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File (it being understood that the Trustee shall have no responsibility for determining the sufficiency of such assignment for its intended purpose).  In lieu of repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, the Seller may cause such Mortgage Loan to be removed from the Trust Fund (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) below.  It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller to cure or to repurchase (or to substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against the Seller respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.

The Trustee shall enforce the obligations of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement including, without limitation, any obligation of the Seller to purchase a Mortgage Loan on account of missing or defective documentation or on account of a breach of a representation, warranty or covenant as described in this Section 2.03(a).

(b)

If pursuant to the provisions of Section 2.03(a), the Seller repurchases or otherwise removes from the Trust Fund a Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall take (or shall cause the Servicer to take), at the expense of the Seller (with the cooperation of the Depositor and the Trustee), such actions as are necessary either (i) cause MERS to execute and deliver an Assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations or (ii) cause MERS to designate on the MERS® System the Seller or its designee as the beneficial holder of such Mortgage Loan.

(c)

[Reserved].

(d)

Any substitution of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for Deleted Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) above must be effected prior to the last Business Day that is within two years after the Closing Date.  As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be effected by the Seller delivering to the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01 hereof, together with an Officers’ Certificate stating that each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution Adjustment (as described below), if any, in connection with su ch substitution; provided, however, that, in the case of any Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall provide such documents and take such other action with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as are required pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof.  The Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall acknowledge receipt for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within five Business Days thereafter, shall review such documents as specified in Section 2.02 hereof and deliver to the Servicer, with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit G-2, with any exceptions noted thereon.  Within 180 days of the date of substitution, the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall deliver to the Seller and the Master Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit G-3 hereto with respect to such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any exce ptions noted thereon.  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 Seller.  For the month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the collections and recoveries in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan in the Due Period preceding the month of substitution and the Depositor or the Seller, as the case may be, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan.  The Seller shall give or cause to be given written notice to the Certificateholders that such substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee.  Upon such substitution, such Qual ified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall constitute part of the Trust Fund and shall be subject in all respects to the terms of this Agreement and, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, in the case of a substitution effected by the Seller all representations and warranties thereof included in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and all representations and warranties thereof set forth in Section 2.04 hereof, in each case as of the date of substitution.

For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Seller shall determine, and provide written certification to the Trustee and the Master Servicer as to the amount (each, a “Substitution Adjustment”), if any, by which the aggregate Principal Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans exceeds the aggregate, as to each such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, of the principal balance thereof as of the date of substitution, together with one month’s interest on such principal balance at the applicable Net Loan Rate.  On or prior to the next Determination Date after the Seller’s obligation to repurchase the related Deleted Mortgage Loan arises, the Seller will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to the related Substitution Adjustment, if any, and the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, upon receipt of the related Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File or Files and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as the Seller shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

In addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution (either specifically or as a class of transactions) will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.  If such Opinion of Counsel cannot be delivered, then such substitution may only be effected at such time as the required Opinion of Counsel can be given.

(e)

Upon discovery by the Seller, the Depositor 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.  In connection therewith, the Seller 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.  Any such repurchase or substitution shall be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a) above, if made by the Seller.  The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and condit ions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty.

SECTION 2.04.  Representations and Warranties of the Seller with Respect to the Mortgage Loans.

The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders that the representations and warranties made by the Seller pursuant to Schedule II to this Agreement are hereby being made to the Trustee and are true and correct as of the Closing Date.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties incorporated in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment.  Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Seller or the Trustee of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interests therein of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other parties, and in no event later than two Business Days from the date of such discovery.  It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Seller set forth in Section 2.03(a) hereof to cure, substitute for or repurchase a related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement constitute the sole remedies available to the Certificateholders or to the Trustee on their behalf respecting a breach of the representations and warranties incorporated in this Section 2.04.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

SECTION 3.01.  Servicer to Administer and Service the Mortgage Loans.

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 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 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 or non-ownership of any Certificate by the Servicer or any Affiliate of the Servicer;

(iii)

the Servicer’s obligation to make 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 shall seek to maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes.  Subject only to the above-described servicing standards and the terms of this Agreement and of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 3.02 hereof, 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 Tru stee, 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 each insurer under any standard hazard insurance policy.  Subject to Section 3.17 hereof, the Trustee shall execute, at the written request of the Servicer, and furnish to the Servicer and any Sub-Servicer any special or limited powers of attorney and other documents prepared by the Servicer and necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer to carry out their servicing and administrative duties hereunder; provided, however, such limited powers of attorney or other documents shall be prepared by the Servicer and submitted to the Trustee for execution.  The Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer or any Sub-Servicers under such powers of attorney.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, the Servicer shall undertake to defend claims against the Trust, the Trustee and/or itself by a Mortgagor or otherwise related to the servicing of any Mortgage Loans.

Subject to Section 3.09 hereof, 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 hereof.  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.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer may not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan and the Servicer shall not (i) permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Loan 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 (unless, as provided in Section 3.07 hereof, the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) or (ii) permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

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

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

(a)

The Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with Sub-Servicers for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that such agreements would not result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by the Rating Agencies of the rating on any Class of Certificates and the Servicer provides written notification to the Master Servicer of each such Sub-Servicing Agreement.

Each Sub-Servicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states where 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 mortgage servicer approved by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  Each Sub-Servicing Agreement must impose on the Sub-Servicer requirements conforming to the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 hereof 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; provided, further, that the consent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights shall not be required (i) to cure any ambiguity or defect in a Sub-Servicing Agreement, (ii) to correct, modify or supplement any provisions of a Sub-Servicing Agreement, or (iii) to make any other provisions with respect to matters or questions arising under a Sub-Servicing Agreement, which, in each case, shall not be inconsistent with the provisions of this Agreement.  Any variation without the co nsent of the Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 66% of the Voting Rights from the provisions set forth in Section 3.08 hereof 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 Master Servicer copies of all Sub-Servicing Agreements, and any amendments or modifications thereof, promptly upon the Servicer’s execution and delivery of such instruments.

(b)

As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer, 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 hereof.

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

SECTION 3.04.  Liability of the Servicer.

Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement or 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 Master Servicer and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions of Section 3.01 hereof 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, Trustee  and the Master Servicer 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, Trustee and the Master Servicer 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 hereof.  The Servicer shall be solely liable for all fees owed by it to any Sub-Servicer, irrespective of whether the Servicer’s compensation pursuant to this Agreement is sufficient to pay such fees.

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

In the event the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer (including by reason of the occurrence of an Event of Default), the Master Servicer shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under each Sub-Servicing Agreement that the Servicer may have entered into, unless the Master Servicer elects to terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement in accordance with its terms as provided in Section 3.03 hereof.  Upon such assumption, the Master Servicer (or the successor Servicer appointed pursuant to Section 7.02 hereof) shall be deemed, subject to Section 3.03, to have assumed all of the departing Servicer’s interest therein and to have replaced the departing 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 departing Servicer shall not ther eby be relieved of any liability or obligations under any Sub-Servicing Agreement that arose before it ceased to be the Servicer and (ii) neither the Master Servicer nor 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 deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Sub-Servicing Agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by or on behalf of it, and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Sub-Servicing Agreements to the assuming party.

SECTION 3.07.  Collection of Certain Mortgage Loan Payments.

The Servicer shall make reasonable efforts to collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans, and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any applicable insurance policies, follow such collection procedures as it would follow with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its own account.  Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer may in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge or, if applicable, any penalty interest, or (ii) extend the due dates for the Monthly Payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period of not greater than 180 days; provided, however, that any extension pursuant to clause (ii) above shall not affect the amortization schedule of any Mortgage Loan for purposes of any computation hereunder, except as provided below.  In the eve nt 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 5.04 hereof and in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangement.  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 hereof, may also waive, modify or vary any term of such Mortgage Loan (including modifications that would change the Loan Rate, forgive the payment of principal or interest or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan), accept payment from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the Stated Principal Balance in final satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan, or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or otherwise grant indulgence to any Mortga gor (any and all such waivers, modifications, variances, forgiveness of principal or interest, postponements, or indulgences collectively referred to herein as “forbearance”); provided, however, that in no event shall the Servicer grant any such forbearance (other than as permitted by the second sentence of this Section) with respect to any one Mortgage Loan more than once in any 12-month period or more than three times over the life of such Mortgage Loan.  The Servicer’s analysis supporting any forbearance and the conclusion that any forbearance meets the standards of Section 3.01 hereof (including the standard that such forbearance will maximize the timely and complete recovery of principal and interest on the Mortgage Notes) shall be reflected in writing in the Mortgage File.

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 Agreement will provide that any Sub-Servicing Account shall be an Eligible Account and shall comply with all requirements of this Agreement relating to the Collection Account.  The Sub-Servicing Agreement will provide that the Sub-Servicer shall deposit in the clearing 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 one Business Day 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, and shall thereafter deposit such amounts in the Sub-Servicing Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the receipt of such amounts.  The Sub-Servicing Agreement will provide that the Sub-Servicer shall thereafter deposit such proceeds in the Collection Account or 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.

The Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more accounts (the “Servicing Accounts”), into which all Escrow Payments shall be deposited and retained.  Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts.  The Servicer shall deposit in the clearing 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 one Business Day after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans and shall thereafter deposit such Escrow Payments in the Servicing Accounts, in no event more than two Business Days after the receipt of such Escrow Payments, 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 payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums, and comparable items in a manner and at a time that assures that the lien priority of the Mortgage is not jeopardized (or, with respect to the payment of taxes, in a manner and at a time that avoids the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien); (ii) reimburse the Servicer (or a Sub-Servicer to the extent provided in the related Sub-Servicing Agreement) out of related collections for any Servicing Advances made pursuant to Section 3.01 hereof (with respect to taxes and assessments) and Section 3.14 hereof (with respect to 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 XI hereof.  The Servicer will be responsible for the administration of the Servicing Accounts and will be obligated to make Servicing Advances to such accounts when and as necessary to avoid the lapse of insurance coverage on the Mortgaged Property, or which the Servicer knows, or in the exercise of the required standard of care of the Servicer hereunder should know, 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.  If any such payment has not been made and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with respect to the Mortgage being imposed, the Servicer will, within ten business days of such notice, advance or cause to be advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien on the Mortgaged Property.  As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer or Sub-Servicers shall pay to th e Mortgagors interest on funds in the 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.

SECTION 3.10.  Collection Account and Distribution Account.

(a)

On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the “Collection Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.  The Servicer shall deposit into the Collection Account, no later than two Business Days following the Closing Date, any amounts representing payments of principal due in respect of the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-off Date and received by the Servicer prior to the Closing Date and any amounts representing payments of interest due in respect of the Mortgage Loans after the Cut-off Date and received by the Servicer prior to the Closing Date.  Thereafter, on behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the clearing account in which it customarily deposits payments and collections on mort gage loans in connection with its mortgage loan servicing activities on a daily basis, and in no event more than one Business Day after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the Collection Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, as and when received or as otherwise required hereunder, the following payments and collections received or made by it subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal or interest on the 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:

(ii)

all payments on account of interest (net of the Servicing Fee) on each Mortgage Loan;

(b)

On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain one or more accounts (such account or accounts, the “Distribution Account”), held in trust for the benefit of the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and the Certificateholders.  On behalf of the Trust Fund, the Servicer shall deliver to the Securities Administrator in immediately available funds for deposit in the Distribution Account on or before 1:00 pm New York time on the Servicer Remittance Date, that portion of the Available Funds (calculated without regard to the references in the definition thereof to amounts that may be withdrawn from the Distribution Account) for the related Distribution Date then on deposit in the Collection Account.

(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 hereof.  The Servicer shall give notice to the Securities Administrator of the location of the Collection Account maintained by it when established and prior to any change thereof.  The Securities Administrator shall give notice to the Servicer 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 Securities 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 Securities Administrator shall have the sole authority to withdraw any funds held in the Distribution Account pursuant to this subsection (d).  In the event the Servicer shall deliver to the Securities Administrator for deposit in the Distribution Account any amount not required to be deposited therein, it may at any time request that the Securities 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, with respect to items (i) through (iv) below and the Master Servicer, with respect to item (v) below, shall deliver to the Securities Administrator from time to time for deposit, and the Securities Administrator, with respect to items (i) through (v) below, shall so deposit, in the Distribution Account:

(xii)

to remove amounts deposited in error; and

(xiii)

to clear and terminate the Collection Account pursuant to Section 11.01 hereof.

The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Collection Account, to the extent held by or on behalf of it, pursuant to subclauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii) above.  The Servicer shall provide written notification to the Master Servicer, on or prior to the next succeeding Servicer Remittance Date, upon making any withdrawals from the Collection Account pursuant to subclause (vi) above; provided, however, that an Officers’ Certificate in the form described under Section 5.05(d) shall suffice for such written notification to the Master Servicer in respect hereof.

(b)

The Securities Administrator shall, from time to time, make withdrawals from the Distribution Account, for any of the following purposes, without priority:

(i)

to make distributions or pay any amounts due in accordance with Sections 5.01, 7.02, 8.05 and 10.03 hereof;

(ii)

SECTION 3.12.  Investment of Funds in the Collection Account and Distribution Account.

(a)

The Servicer may direct any depository institution maintaining the Collection Account (each such account, for purposes of this Section 3.12, an “Investment Account”), to invest the funds in such Investment Account in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand, 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.  Funds in the Distribution Account may be invested in Permitted Investments selected by the Securities Administrator.  All such Permitted Investments shall mature 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, unless such Permitted Investments are payable on demand, in which case they may be withdrawn on the date that funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement.  Any investment of funds in an Investment Account shall be made in the name of the Securities Administrator (in its capacity as such), or in the name of a nominee of the Securities Administrator.  The Securities Administrator may be entitled to sole possession or control (except with respect to investment direction of funds held in the Collection Account and any income and gain realized thereon) over each such investment, and any certificate, securities entitlement or other instrument evidencing any such investment shall be delivered directly to the Securities Administrator or its agent, together with any document of transfer necessary to transfer title to such investment to the Securities 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 Servicer shall:

(i)

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 (A) all amounts then payable thereunder and (B) the amount required to be withdrawn on such date; and

(ii)

demand payment of all amounts due thereunder promptly upon determination by a Responsible Officer of the Securities 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 and any REO 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 or Section 3.23 hereof, as applicable.  The Servicer shall deposit in the Collection Account or any REO Account, as applicable, 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)

The benefit derived from funds deposited in the Distribution Account and any Permitted Investments for one Business Day thereon shall be for the benefit of the Securities Administrator.  The Securities 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 Securities 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.  Yield Maintenance Account.  

On or prior to the Closing Date, the Securities Administrator shall cause to be established and maintained the Yield Maintenance Account, into which amounts received by the Securities Administrator pursuant to the Yield Maintenance Agreement shall be deposited for the benefit of the Class 3A-1, Class 3A-2, Class X and Class Y Certificates.  Amounts on deposit in the Yield Maintenance Account shall not be invested and shall not be held in an interest-bearing account.  

On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall withdraw from the Yield Maintenance Account the Yield Maintenance Distributable Amount then on deposit therein, and deposit such amounts in the Distribution Account for payment to the Class 3A-1 and Class 3A-2 Certificates.  With respect to each Distribution Date on which a Yield Maintenance Payment is received under the Yield Maintenance Agreement, the Securities Administrator, as Paying Agent, will pay to the related Certificateholders from the Yield Maintenance Distributable Amount, up to the amount of current interest that each such Class would have been entitled to receive had the applicable note interest rate been calculated at the lesser of (a) One-Month LIBOR plus the applicable Margin for the related Accrual Period and (b) 10.50% per annum, to the extent not paid out of the Available Funds for such Payment Date.  Any amounts remaining in the Distribution A ccount after distributions are made to the Class 3A-1 and Class 3A-2 Certificates from the Yield Maintenance Distributable Amounts shall be distributed to the Class X-2 Certificates.  

For any Distribution Date on which there is a payment under the Yield Maintenance Agreement and such Yield Maintenance Payment exceeds the related Yield Maintenance Distributable Amount, the amount representing such excess payment shall not be an asset of the Trust Fund and, instead, shall be paid into and distributed out of a separate trust created by this Agreement for the benefit of the Class Y Certificates and shall be distributed to the Class Y Certificates pursuant to this Section 4.04.  Under the Yield Maintenance Agreement and for each Distribution Date, the Class Y Certificates shall be entitled to a distribution equal to the sum of (i) such excess and (ii) the excess of the related Yield Maintenance Distributable Amount over the amount of unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls with respect to the related Certificates.

The Securities Administrator shall terminate the Yield Maintenance Provider upon the occurrence of an event of default or termination event under the Yield Maintenance Agreement of which a Responsible Officer of the Securities Administrator has actual knowledge.  In the event that the Yield Maintenance Agreement is canceled or otherwise terminated for any reason (other than the exhaustion of the interest rate protection provided thereby), the Securities Administrator shall, at the direction of Certificateholders evidencing Voting Rights not less than 50% of the Certificates related to the Yield Maintenance Agreement, and to the extent a replacement contract is available (from a counterparty designated by the Depositor and acceptable to Certificateholders evidencing Voting Rights not less than 50% of the related Certificates), execute a replacement contract comparable to such Yield Maintenance Agreement providing interest rate prot ection which is equal to the then-existing protection provided by the Yield Maintenance Agreement as certified to the Securities Administrator by the Depositor; provided, however, that the cost of any such replacement contract providing the same interest rate protection may be reduced to a level such that the cost of such replacement contract shall not exceed the amount of any early termination payment received from the Yield Maintenance Provider; provided, further, that any costs incurred by the Securities Administrator in association with the termination of the Yield Maintenance Provider or the entering into of a replacement contract will be reimbursed to the Securities Administrator by the Trust Fund.

To the extent that it constitutes a "reserve fund" for purposes of the REMIC Provisions, the Yield Maintenance Account established hereunder shall be an "outside reserve fund" as defined in Treasury Regulation 1.860G-2(h), and in that regard (i) such fund shall be an outside reserve fund and not an asset of any REMIC, (ii) such fund shall be owned for federal tax purposes by the Holder of the Class X Certificates, and the Holder of the Class X Certificates shall report all amounts of income, reduction, gain or loss accruing therefrom, and (iii) amounts transferred by the REMIC to the fund shall be treated as distributed by the REMIC to the Holder of the Class X Certificates.

For federal income tax purposes, the Class Y Certificates shall represent an interest in each of the Yield Maintenance Agreements.  Accordingly, a Class Y Certificateholder should account for its investment in Class Y Certificates under the rules set forth in Treasury Regulation Section 1.446-3(c), which concern notional principal contracts.  

On any Distribution Date on or prior to the Distribution Date in February 2013, if the aggregate Class Certificate Principal Balance of the Certificates related to the Yield Maintenance Agreement equals zero (but not including the Distribution Date on which such aggregate Class Certificate Principal Balance is reduced to zero), all amounts received by the Securities Administrator with respect to the Yield Maintenance Agreement shall be distributed directly to the Class Y Certificateholder.  On the Distribution Date in February 2013 or upon the termination of the Trust, the Yield Maintenance Agreements shall be terminated.

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

(a)

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire insurance with extended coverage on all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property 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 that 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 insurance with extended coverage on each REO Property 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 hereof, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan, or in the REO Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.23 hereof, 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 a dded to the unpaid Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.  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 and flood insurance has been made available, 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 current Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the minimum amount required under the terms of coverage to compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement cost basis or, in some cases, the full insurable value, but not more than 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).

If a Mortgage is secured by a unit in a condominium or a unit in a planned unit development, the Servicer shall have received a certificate of insurance evidencing a master policy held by the owner’s association and naming the Servicer as loss payee. All policies required hereunder shall name the Servicer as loss payee and shall be endorsed with standard mortgage clauses, which shall provide for at least 30 days’ prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in amount or material change in coverage. The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of choice in selecting an insurance carrier or agent; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies satisfy the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and are licensed to do business in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located. Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than the amounts to be deposited in the Escrow Account and to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related Mortgaged Property or property acquired in liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or amounts released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer’s normal servicing procedures) shall be deposited in the Collection Account. Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders or remittances to the Securities Administrator for their benefit, be added to the Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the Servicer out of late payments by the related Mortgagor or out of Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted by Section 3.10 hereof. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of a Mortgage other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.

In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of AX or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide (or such other rating that is comparable to such rating) 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 the first two paragraphs 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 u nder 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 and the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.

(b)

[Reserved.]

(c)

[Reserved.]

(d)

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 the Servicer’s obligations under this Agreement, which policy or policies shall be in such form and amount that would meet the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac if it were the purchaser of the Mortgage Loans, unless the Servicer has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The Servicer shall also maintain a fidelity bond in the form and amount that would meet the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, unless the Servicer has obtained a waiver of such requirements from Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  The Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an Affiliate of the Servicer has such errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insura nce policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Servicer.  Any such errors and omissions policy and fidelity bond shall by its terms not be cancelable without thirty days’ prior written notice to the Trustee.  The Servicer shall also cause each Sub-Servicer to maintain a policy of insurance covering errors and omissions and a fidelity bond which would meet such requirements.

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 be required to take such action if in its sole business judgment the Servicer believes it is not in the best interests of the Trust Fund and 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 a pply, 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 underwriting criteria of the Servicer and has a credit risk rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor.  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 activ ities 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, modification or substitution of liability agreement shall 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 Loan 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 that any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee the executed original of such substitution, modification or ass umption 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 use its best efforts, consistent with Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.07 hereof.  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 hereof.  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 discret ion 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 Master Servicer, the Trust Fund 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:

(i)

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

(ii)

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)(vii) above, 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; provided that any amounts disbursed by the Servicer pursuant to this Section 3.16(b) shall constitute Servicing Advances, subject to Section 5.05(d) hereof.  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)(iii) and (a)(vii) hereof, 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)

[Reserved].

(d)

Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances, pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(ii) or (a)(iii) hereof; 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).

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

(a)

Upon (i) the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, (ii) the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full shall be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes or (iii) in the case of a Mortgage Loan as to which the related Mortgaged Property is located in the State of California, at such time as the Servicer reasonably expects that it will have received payment in full, the Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee two executed copies of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit F (which shall include a certification 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 hereof have been so deposited) of a Servicing Officer and shall request delivery to it of the Mortgage File.  Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Trustee shall, within fi ve Business Days, release and send the related Mortgage File to the Servicer by overnight mail, at the expense of the Servicer.  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.

(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 Trustee shall, upon any request made by or on behalf of the Servicer and delivery to the Trustee of two copies of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit F, release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer, and the Trustee shall, at the direction of the Servicer, execute such documents as shall be necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings.  Such Request for Release shall obligate the Servicer to return each and every document previously requested from the Mortgage File to the applicable 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 Col lection 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, or caused to be delivered, to the Trustee and the applicable Custodian an additional Request for Release certifying as to such liquidation or action or proceedings.  Upon the request of the Trustee, the Servicer shall provide notice to the Trustee of 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 tha t such Mortgage Loan has become an REO Property, any outstanding Requests for Release with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall be released by the Trustee to the Servicer or its designee.

(c)

Upon written certification of a Servicing Officer addressed to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the applicable Custodian, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer or the Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, copies of, any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents prepared by the Servicer and 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 deliv ery 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.

(d)

Each Request for Release delivered to the Trustee hereunder shall be signed by a Servicing Officer or shall be delivered in a mutually agreed upon electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer.

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; provided, however, that the aggregate Servicing Fee shall be reduced with respect to each Distribution Date by an amount equal to the amount of Compensating Interest Payment for such Distribution Date.

Additional servicing compensation in the form of late payment charges, assumption fees, insufficient funds charges, prepayment premiums or other ancillary income shall be retained by the Servicer 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) hereof to withdraw from the Collection Account and pursuant to Section 3.23(b) hereof 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 hereof.  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 hereof, to the extent such premiums are not paid by the related Mortgagors) and shall not be entitled to reimbursement the refor except as specifically provided herein.

SECTION 3.19.  Reports to the Master Servicer; Collection Account Statements.

Not later than 20 days after each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall forward, upon request, to the Master Servicer and the Depositor the most current available bank statement for the Collection Account.  Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Master Servicer to any Certificateholder and to any Person identified to the Master Servicer as a prospective transferee of a Certificate, upon request at the expense of the requesting party, provided such statement is delivered by the Servicer to the Master Servicer.

SECTION 3.20.  Statement as to Compliance.

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 Trustee, shall either sell any REO Property by the end of the third full taxable year after the taxable year in which any REMIC 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 61 days before the day on which the three-year grace period would otherwise expire, an extension of such three-year period, unless the Servicer shall have delivered to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Trustee and the Depositor, to the effect that the holding by the REMIC of such REO Property subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.  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 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 separately account for all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO Property and shall establish and maintain, or cause to be established and maintained, 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 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 one Business Day after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, and shall thereafter deposit in the REO Account, in no event more than two Business Days after the Servicer’s receipt thereof, 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, the Servicer shall not:

(iv)

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;

(v)

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

(vi)

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

(vii)

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 Trustee and the Master Servicer, 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 any REMIC, 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:

(viii)

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

(ix)

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;

(x)

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, Master Servicer and Securities Administrator on behalf of the Certificateholders with respect to the operation and management of any such REO Property; and

(xi)

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 hereof is sufficient to pay such fees; provided, however, that to the extent that any payments made by such Independent Contractor would constitute Servicing Advances if made by the Servicer, such amounts shall be reimbursable as Servicing Advances made by the Servicer.

(d)

In addition to the withdrawals permitted under Section 3.23(c) hereof, the Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the REO Account for any REO Property: (i) to pay itself or any Sub-Servicer unpaid Servicing Fees in respect of the related Mortgage Loan; and (ii) to reimburse itself or any Sub-Servicer for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Advances made in respect of such REO Property or the related Mortgage Loan.  On the Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall withdraw from each REO Account maintained by it and deposit into the Distribution Account in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii) hereof, for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof, the income from the related REO Property received during the prior calendar month, net of any withdrawals made pursuant to Section 3.23(c) hereof or this Section 3.23(d).

(e)

Subject to the time constraints set forth in Section 3.23(a) hereof, 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 Servicing Standard.

(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 deposited in the Collection Account in accordance with Section 3.10(d)(ii) hereof on the Servicer Remittance Date in the month following the receipt thereof for distribution on the related Distribution Date in accordance with Section 5.01 hereof.  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 Interest Shortfalls.

Not later than the Close of Business on each Servicer Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit into the Collection Account, the lesser of (A) an amount equal to the sum of (a) for Principal Prepayments in part received during the relevant Prepayment Period, the difference between (i) one month’s interest at the applicable Net Loan Rate on the amount of such prepayment and (ii) the amount of interest for the calendar month of such prepayment (adjusted to the applicable Net Loan Rate) actually received with respect to such prepayment at the time of such prepayment and (b) for Principal Prepayments in full received during the relevant Prepayment Period, the difference between (i) one month’s interest at the applicable Net Loan Rate on the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan immediately prior to such prepayment and (ii) the amount of interest for the calendar month of such prepaym ent (adjusted to the applicable Net Loan Rate) actually received with respect to such prepayment at the time of such prepayment and (B) the Servicing Fee.  The Servicer shall not have the right to reimbursement for any amounts remitted to the Collection Account in respect of such amounts.  Such amounts so remitted shall be included in the Available Funds and distributed therewith on the next Distribution Date.  

SECTION 3.25.  [Reserved]

SECTION 3.26.  Obligations of the Servicer in Respect of Adjustments.

In the event that a shortfall in any collection on or liability with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the aggregate results from or is attributable to adjustments to 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 Securities 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 Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor and any successor servicer in respect of any such liability. Such indemnities shall survive the termination or discharge of the Servicer or this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, this Section 3.26 shall not limit the ability of the Servicer t o seek recovery of any such amounts from the related Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Note, as permitted by law.

SECTION 3.27.  Solicitations.

second, to the Senior Certificates, pro rata, until the Class Certificate Principal Balance of each Class of Senior Certificates is reduced to zero; provided however, that the portion of such losses otherwise allocable to Class 3A-1 Certificates will be allocated to the Class 3A-2 Certificates until the Class Principal Balance of the Class 3A-2 Certificates has been reduced to zero; and

(A)

first, to the Class B-6 Certificates, in reduction of accrued but unpaid interest therein and then in reduction of the Class B-6 Principal Balance;

(ii)

The interest portion of any Excess Losses on the Mortgage Loans shall be allocated to the Classes of Senior Certificates and Subordinate Certificates on that Distribution Date pursuant to Section 5.01(d).

(d)

The Class Certificate Principal Balance of the Class of Subordinate Certificates then outstanding with the highest numerical Class designation shall be reduced on each Distribution Date by the amount, if any, by which the aggregate of the Class Certificate Principal Balances of all outstanding Classes of Certificates (after giving effect to the distribution of principal and the allocation of Realized Losses and Excess Losses on such Distribution Date) exceeds the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balances of all the Mortgage Loans for the following Distribution Date.

(e)

Any Realized Loss or Excess Loss allocated to a Class of Certificates or any reduction in the Class Certificate Principal Balance of a Class of Certificates pursuant to Section 5.03(b) or (c) shall be allocated among the Certificates of such Class, pro rata, in proportion to their respective Certificate Principal Balances.

(f)

Any allocation of Realized Losses to a Certificate or any reduction in the Certificate Principal Balance of a Certificate pursuant to Section 5.03(b) or (c) shall be accomplished by reducing the Certificate Principal Balance thereof immediately following the distributions made on the related Distribution Date in accordance with the definition of “Certificate Principal Balance.”

(b)

If the Monthly Payment on a Mortgage Loan that was due on a related Due Date and is delinquent, other than as a result of application of the Relief Act, and for which the Servicer was required to make an advance pursuant to this Agreement, exceeds the amount on deposit in the Distribution Account which will be used for an advance with respect to such Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall, on the second Business Day preceding the Distribution Date, deposit in the Distribution Account an amount equal to such deficiency, net of the Servicing Fee, for such Mortgage Loan except to the extent the Servicer determines any such Advance to be Nonrecoverable from Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or future payments on the Mortgage Loan for which such Advance was made.  Subject to the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue to make such Advances through the date that it is required to do so under this A greement.  The obligation to make such an Advance shall continue until such Mortgage Loan becomes a Liquidated Mortgage Loan.  If the Servicer determines that an Advance is Nonrecoverable, it shall, on or prior to the second Business Day prior to the related Distribution Date, present an Officer’s Certificate to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator (i) stating that the Servicer elects not to make a Advance in a stated amount and (ii) detailing the reason it deems the advance to be Nonrecoverable.  To the extent the Servicer does not make such an Advance, the Master Servicer in its capacity as successor servicer, shall make such Advance pursuant to Section 7.01(c).

(b) On each Distribution Date, Monthly Interest Distributable Amounts that would otherwise be distributable with respect to the Class X Certificates shall instead be deposited in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund to the extent of the Required Reserve Fund Deposit.

(d) Funds in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund shall be invested in Permitted Investments.  Any earnings on amounts in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund shall be for the benefit of the Class X Certificateholders.  The Class X Certificates shall evidence ownership of the Basis Risk Reserve Fund for federal income tax purposes and the Holders thereof shall direct the Trustee, in writing, as to investment of amounts on deposit therein.  The Class X Certificateholder(s) shall be liable for any losses incurred on such investments.  In the absence of written instructions from the Class X Certificateholder as to investment of funds on deposit in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund, such funds shall be invested in money market funds as described in clause (vi) of the definition of Permitted Investments in Article I.  For all Federal income tax purposes, amounts transferred by the Upper-Tier REMIC to t he Basis Risk Reserve Fund shall be treated as amounts distributed by the Upper-Tier REMIC to the Class X Certificateholders.

(b)

Except as provided in paragraph (c) or (d) below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times remain registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at all times: (i) registration of such Certificates may not be transferred by the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Certificate Registrar except to another Depository; (ii) the Depository shall maintain book-entry records with respect to the Certificate Owners and with respect to ownership and transfers of such Certificates; (iii) ownership and transfers of registration of such Certificates on the books of the Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established by the Depository; (iv) the Depository may collect its usual and customary fees, charges and expenses from its Depository Participants; (v) the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor shall for all pur poses deal with the Depository as representative of the Certificate Owners of the Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights of Holders under this Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of such representative shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are made with respect to different Certificate Owners; (vi) the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon information furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository Participants and furnished by the Depository Participants with respect to indirect participating firms and Persons shown on the books of such indirect participating firms as direct or indirect Certificate Owners; and (vii) the direct participants of the Depository shall have no rights under this Agreement under or with respect to any of the Certificates held on their behalf by the Depository, and the Depository may be treated by the Trustee, t he Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor and their respective agents, employees, officers and directors as the absolute owner of the Certificates for all purposes whatsoever.

All transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall be made in accordance with the procedures established by the Depository Participant or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owners.  Each Depository Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of Certificate Owners that it represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in accordance with the Depository’s normal procedures.  The parties hereto are hereby authorized to execute one or more Letter of Representations with the Depository or take such other action as may be necessary or desirable to register a Book-Entry Certificate to the Depository.  In the event of any conflict between the terms of any such Letter of Representation and this Agreement, the terms of this Agreement shall control.

(c)

If (i)(x) the Depository or the Depositor advises the Certificate Registrar in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able to discharge properly its responsibilities as Depository and (y) the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor is unable to locate a qualified successor or (ii) the Depositor, at its sole option, with the consent of the Certificate Registrar, elects to terminate the book-entry system through the Depository, upon surrender to the Certificate Registrar of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Depository, accompanied by registration instructions from the Depository for registration, the Securities Administrator shall, at the Depositor’s expense, in the case of (ii) above, or at the Seller’s expense, in the case of (i) above, execute on behalf of the Trust and authenticate definitive, fully registered certificates (the “Definitive Certificates”). &nb sp;Neither the Depositor nor the Certificate Registrar shall be liable for any delay in delivery of such instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected in relying on, such instructions.  Upon the issuance of Definitive Certificates, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor shall recognize the Holders of the Definitive Certificates as Certificateholders hereunder.

(d)

No transfer, sale, pledge or other disposition of any Private Certificate shall be made unless such disposition is exempt from the registration requirements of the 1933 Act, and any applicable state securities laws or is made in accordance with the 1933 Act and laws.  Any Private Certificates sold to an “accredited investor” under Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the 1933 Act shall be issued only in the form of one or more Definitive Certificates and the records of the Certificate Registrar and DTC or its nominee shall be adjusted to reflect the transfer of such Definitive Certificates.  In the event of any transfer of any Private Certificate in the form of a Definitive Certificate, (i) the transferee shall certify (A) such transfer is made to a Qualified Institutional Buyer in reliance upon Rule 144A (as evidenced by an investment letter delivered to the Certificate Regist rar, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-2) under the 1933 Act, or (B) such transfer is made to an “accredited investor” under Rule 501(c)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the 1933 Act (as evidenced by an investment letter delivered to the Certificate Registrar, in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit J-1, and, if so required by the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor, a written Opinion of Counsel (which may be in-house counsel) acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor, delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor stating that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption, including a description of the applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from the 1933 Act or is being made pursuant to the 1933 Act, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor) or (ii) t he Certificate Registrar shall require the transferor to execute a transferor certificate and the transferee to execute an investment letter acceptable to and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar certifying to the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar the facts surrounding such transfer, which investment letter shall not be an expense of the Trust, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor.  Each Holder of a Private Certificate desiring to effect such transfer shall, and does hereby agree to, indemnify the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator 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.

In the case of a Private Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate, for purposes of the preceding paragraph, the representations set forth in the investment letter in clause (i) shall be deemed to have been made to the Certificate Registrar by the transferee’s acceptance of such Private Certificate that is also a Book-Entry Certificate (or the acceptance by a Certificate Owner of the beneficial interest in such Certificate).

No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate, other than the Class Y Certificate, in the form of a Definitive Certificate shall be made unless the Certificate Registrar shall have received either (i) a representation from the transferee of such Certificate, acceptable to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar and the Depositor (such requirement is satisfied only by the Certificate Registrar’s receipt of a representation letter from the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit I-1 or I-2, as applicable, hereto), to the effect that such transferee is not an employee benefit plan subject to Section 406 of ERISA or a plan or arrangement subject to Section 4975 of the Code, nor a person acting on behalf of any such plan or arrangement nor using the assets of any such plan or arrangement to effect such transfer or (ii) in the case of an ERISA-Restricted Certific ate, if such Certificate has been the subject of an ERISA-Qualifying Underwriting, a representation that the purchaser is an insurance company which is purchasing such Certificates with funds contained in an “insurance company general account” (as such term is defined in Section V(e) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption 95-60 (“PTCE 95-60”) and the purchase and holding of such Certificates are covered under Sections I and III of PTCE 95-60, (iii) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be an expense of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor or the Trust, addressed to the Certificate Registrar, to the effect that the purchase and holding of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a Definitive Certificate will not result in a non-exempt prohibited transaction under Section 406 of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subjec t the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Servicer or the Depositor to any obligation in addition to those expressly undertaken in this Agreement or to any liability.  Notwithstanding anything else to the contrary herein, any purported transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate, other than the Class Y Certificate, in the form of a Definitive Certificate to an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code without the delivery to the Certificate Registrar of an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar as described above shall be void and of no effect.  No transfer of a Class Y Certificate in the form of a Definitive Certificate shall be made to an employee benefit plan subject to ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.

In the case of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate, for purposes of clauses (i) or (ii) of the first sentence of the preceding paragraph, such representations shall be deemed to have been made to the Certificate Registrar by the transferee’s acceptance of such ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is also a Book-Entry Certificate (or the acceptance by a Certificate Owner of the beneficial interest in such Certificate).

To the extent permitted under applicable law (including, but not limited to, ERISA), none of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor shall have any liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 6.02(d) or for the Paying Agent making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Certificate Registrar in accordance with the foregoing requirements.  In addition, none of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor shall be required to monitor, determine or inquire as to compliance with the transfer restrictions with respect to any ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a Book-Entry Certificate, and none of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor shall have any liability for transfers of Book-Entry Certificates or any interests therein made in violation of the restrictions on transfer described in the Prospectus Supplement and this Agreement.

(e)

Each Person who has or who acquires any Ownership Interest in the Class A-R Certificate shall be deemed by the acceptance or acquisition of such Ownership Interest to have agreed to be bound by the following provisions and to have irrevocably appointed the Depositor or its designee as its attorney-in-fact to negotiate the terms of any mandatory sale under clause (v) below and to execute all instruments of transfer and to do all other things necessary in connection with any such sale, and the rights of each Person acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate are expressly subject to the following provisions:

(i)

Each Person holding or acquiring any Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate shall be a Permitted Transferee who acquires such Ownership Interest in a Class A-R Certificate for its own account and not in the capacity as trustee, nominee or agent for another Person and shall promptly notify the Certificate Registrar and the Trustee of any change or impending change in its status as such a Permitted Transferee.

(ii)

No Ownership Interest in the Class A-R Certificate may be registered on the Closing Date and no Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate may thereafter be transferred, and the Certificate Registrar shall not register the Transfer of a Residual Certificate unless, in addition to the certificates required to be delivered under subsection (d) above, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall have been furnished with an affidavit (“Transfer Affidavit”) of the initial owner of the Class A-R Certificate or proposed transferee of a Residual Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit L.

(iii)

In connection with any proposed transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate, the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar shall as a condition to registration of the transfer, require delivery to them of a Transferor Certificate in the form of Exhibit K hereto from the proposed transferor to the effect that the transferor (a) has no knowledge the proposed Transferee is not a Permitted Transferee acquiring an Ownership Interest in such Class A-R Certificate for its own account and not in a capacity as trustee, nominee, or agent for another Person, and (b) has not undertaken the proposed transfer in whole or in part to impede the assessment or collection of tax.

(iv)

Any attempted or purported Transfer of any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section shall be absolutely null and void and shall vest no rights in the purported transferee.  If any purported transferee shall, in violation of the provisions of this Section, become a Holder of such Residual Certificate, then the prior Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee shall, upon discovery that the registration of Transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section, be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate.  None of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar or the Depositor shall have any liability to any Person for any registration of Transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitte d by this Section or for the Paying Agent making any distributions due on a Residual Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar received the documents specified in clause (iii).  The Certificate Registrar shall be entitled to recover from any Holder of such Residual Certificate that was in fact not a Permitted Transferee at the time such distributions were made all distributions made on such Residual Certificate.  Any such distributions so recovered by the Certificate Registrar shall be distributed and delivered by the Certificate Registrar to the last Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee.

(v)

If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section, then the Trustee shall have the right but not the obligation, without notice to the Holder of such Residual Certificate or any other Person having an Ownership Interest therein, to notify the Depositor to arrange for the sale of such Residual Certificate.  The proceeds of such sale, net of commissions (which may include commissions payable to the Depositor or its affiliates in connection with such sale), expenses and taxes due, if any, will be remitted by the Certificate Registrar to the previous Holder of such Residual Certificate that is a Permitted Transferee, except that in the event that the Certificate Registrar determines that the Holder of such Residual Certificate may be liable for any amount due under this Sec tion or any other provisions of this Agreement, the Certificate Registrar may withhold a corresponding amount from such remittance as security for such claim.  The terms and conditions of any sale under this clause (v) shall be determined in the sole discretion of the Trustee and the Certificate Registrar and they shall not be liable to any Person having an Ownership Interest in such Residual Certificate as a result of its exercise of such discretion.

(vi)

If any Person other than a Permitted Transferee acquires any Ownership Interest in a Residual Certificate in violation of the restrictions in this Section, then the Securities Administrator upon receipt of reasonable compensation will provide to the Internal Revenue Service, and to the persons specified in Sections 860E(e)(3) and (6) of the Code, information needed to compute the tax imposed under Section 860E(e)(5) of the Code on transfers of residual interests to disqualified organizations.

The foregoing provisions of this Section shall cease to apply to transfers occurring on or after the date on which there shall have been delivered to the Certificate Registrar and the Servicer, in form and substance satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar, (i) written notification from the Rating Agencies that the removal of the restrictions on Transfer set forth in this Section will not cause the Rating Agencies to downgrade their respective ratings of the Certificates and (ii) an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such removal will not cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC.

(f)

No service charge shall be made for any registration of transfer or exchange of Certificates of any Class, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of Certificates.

All Certificates surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled by the Certificate Registrar and disposed of pursuant to its standard procedures.

SECTION 6.03.  Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates.

If (i) any mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar or the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate and (ii) there is delivered to the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee, the Depositor or the Certificate Registrar that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall execute on behalf of the Trust and the Certificate Registrar shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and Percentage Interest.  Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Section, the Trustee, the Depositor or t he Certificate Registrar may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee, the Depositor and the Certificate Registrar) in connection therewith.  Any duplicate Certificate issued pursuant to this Section, shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

SECTION 6.04.  Persons Deemed Owners.

The Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor and any agent of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator or the Depositor may treat the Person, including a Depository, in whose name any Certificate is registered as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Section 5.01 hereof and for all other purposes whatsoever, and none of the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor or any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

SECTION 6.05.  Appointment of Paying Agent.

The Securities Administrator, as Paying Agent, shall hold all sums, if any, held by it for payment to the Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to such Certificateholders and shall comply with all requirements of the Code regarding the withholding of payments in respect of federal income taxes due from Certificate Owners and otherwise comply with the provisions of this Agreement applicable to it.

(ii)

the failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform, in any material respect, any other covenants, obligations or agreements of the Servicer as set forth in this Agreement, which failure continues unremedied for a period of 60 days (or, in the case of a breach of its obligation to provide a Servicer Certification pursuant to Section 3.28, 30 days) after the date (A) on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Master Servicer or to the Servicer and the Master Servicer by Holders of Certificates evidencing at least 25% of the Voting Rights or (B) on which a Servicing Officer of the Servicer has actual knowledge of such failure; or

Any such notice to the Servicer shall also be given to the Rating Agencies, the Depositor and the Seller.  On or after the receipt by the Servicer (and by the Master Servicer if such notice is given by the Holders) of such written notice, all authority and power of the Certificate Registrar under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Certificates or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Master Servicer and the Master Servicer is hereby authorized an d empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement of each Mortgage Loan and related documents or otherwise.

(c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing, if an Event of Default described in clause (i) of Section 7.01(a) shall occur, the Master Servicer shall, by notice in writing to the Servicer, which may be delivered by telecopy, immediately terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer thereafter arising under this Agreement, but without prejudice to any rights it may have as a Certificateholder or to reimbursement of outstanding Advances or other amounts for which the Servicer was entitled to reimbursement as of the date of termination, and the Master Servicer shall act as provided in Section 7.02 to carry out the duties of the Servicer, including the obligation to make any Advance the nonpayment of which was an Event of Default described in clause (i) of Section 7.01(a).  It is understood and agreed to by the parties that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the tr ansfer of servicing obligations is fully effective.  The Servicer agrees that it will reimburse the Master Servicer for actual, necessary and reasonable costs incurred by the Master Servicer because of action taken pursuant to this subsection.

From and after the date the Servicer (and the Master Servicer, if notice is sent by the Holders) receives a notice of termination pursuant to Section 7.01, the Master Servicer shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof arising on and after its succession. As compensation therefor, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to such compensation as the Servicer would have been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination had been given. Notwithstanding the above, (i) if the Master Servicer is unwilling to act as successor Servicer or (ii) if the Master Servicer is legally unable so to act, the Master Servicer shall appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage loan or home equity loan servicer having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000 as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder; provided, that the appointment of any such successor Servicer shall not result in the qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the ratings assigned to the Certificates by the Rating Agencies as evidenced by a letter to such effect from each Rating Agency.

In connection with such appointment and assumption, the successor shall be entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the compensation which the Servicer would other wise have received hereunder. The appointment of a successor Servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen under this Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer to pay any deductible under an insurance policy pursuant to Section 3.09 or to indemnify the Master Servicer or the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.26), nor shall any successor Servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or for any breach by such Servicer of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any related document or agreement. The terminated Servicer shall bear all costs of any servicing transfer hereunder, including but not limited to the costs of the Master Servicer reasonable allocable to specific employees and overhead, legal fees and expenses, accounting and financial consulting fees and expenses, and costs of amending this Agreement, if necessary. The Master Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, a s shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement by the Servicer (or by the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 10.03 if the Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all costs associated in the transfer of servicing from the predecessor Servicer, including, without limitation, any costs and expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data and the completion, connection or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the Master Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.

(c)

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

(d)

Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer be liable for any servicing fee or for any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Servicer to act as successor Servicer under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein.

SECTION 7.03.  Waiver of Event of Default.

The Majority Certificateholders may, on behalf of all Certificateholders, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer, direct the Master Servicer to waive any events permitting removal of any Servicer under this Agreement, provided, however, that the Majority Certificateholders may not waive an event that results in a failure to make any required distribution on a Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate.  Upon any waiver of an Event of Default, such event shall cease to exist and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement.  No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other event or impair any right consequent thereto except to the extent expressly so waived.  Notice of any such waiver shall be given by the Master Servicer to the Rating Agencies.

SECTION 7.04.  Notification to Certificateholders.

The Trustee and the Securities Administrator, prior to the occurrence of an Event of Default and after the curing or waiver of all Events of Default which may have occurred, undertakes to perform such duties and only such duties as are specifically set forth in this Agreement.  If an Event of Default has occurred (which has not been cured or waived) of which a Responsible Officer has actual knowledge, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall exercise such of the rights and powers vested in it by this Agreement, and use the same degree of care and skill in their exercise, as a prudent man would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct of his own affairs unless the Trustee is acting as successor Servicer, in which case it shall use the same degree of care and skill as the Servicer hereunder.

The Trustee and the Securities Administrator, upon receipt of all resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents, orders or other instruments furnished to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator, 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 Trustee and the Securities Administrator will not be responsible for the accuracy or content of any such resolutions, certificates, statements, opinions, reports, documents or other instruments.  If any such instrument is found not to conform to the requirements of this Agreement in a material manner, the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall take such action as it deems appropriate to have the instrument corrected.

On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator, shall make monthly distributions and the final distribution to the Certificateholders from funds in the Distribution Account as provided in Sections 5.01 and 11.01 herein.

the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall not be personally liable with respect to any action taken, suffered or omitted to be taken by it in good faith in accordance with the consent or at the direction of Holders of Certificates as provided herein relating to the time, method and place of conducting any remedy pursuant to this Agreement, or exercising or omitting to exercise any trust or power conferred upon the Trustee or the Securities Administrator under this Agreement; and

(iv)

the Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall not be charged with knowledge of any Event of Default unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, obtains actual knowledge of such failure or the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, receives written notice of such Event of Default.

The Trustee and the Securities Administrator shall not be required to expend or risk its own funds or otherwise incur financial or other liability in the performance of any of its duties hereunder, or in the exercise of any of its rights or powers, if there is reasonable ground for believing that the repayment of such funds or indemnity satisfactory to it against such risk or liability is not assured to it, and none of the provisions contained in this Agreement shall in any event require the Trustee or the Securities Administrator to perform, or be responsible for the manner of performance of, any of the obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement, except during such time, if any, as the Trustee shall be the successor to, and be vested with the rights, duties, powers and privileges of, the Servicer in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

(ii)

no trustee hereunder shall be held personally liable by reason of any act or omission of any other trustee hereunder; and

(iii)

the Trustee may at any time accept the resignation of or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee except that following the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Trustee acting alone may accept the resignation or remove any separate trustee or co-trustee.

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

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

SECTION 8.11.  Limitation of Liability.

The Certificates are executed by the Securities Administrator, not in its individual capacity but solely as Securities Administrator of the Trust, in the exercise of the powers and authority conferred and vested in it by this Agreement.  Each of the undertakings and agreements made on the part of the Securities Administrator in the Certificates is made and intended not as a personal undertaking or agreement by the Securities Administrator but is made and intended for the purpose of binding only the Trust.

SECTION 8.12.  Trustee May Enforce Claims Without Possession of Certificates.

(a)

All rights of action and claims under this Agreement or the Certificates may be prosecuted and enforced by the Trustee without the possession of any of the Certificates or the production thereof in any proceeding relating thereto, and such proceeding instituted by the Trustee shall be brought in its own name or in its capacity as Trustee for the benefit of all Holders of such Certificates, subject to the provisions of this Agreement.  Any recovery of judgment shall, after provision for the payment of the reasonable compensation, expenses, disbursement and advances of the Trustee, its agents and counsel, be for the ratable benefit or the Certificateholders in respect of which such judgment has been recovered.

The Trustee shall afford the Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and each Certificateholder upon reasonable notice during normal business hours at its Corporate Trust Office or other office designated by the Trustee, access to all records maintained by the Trustee in respect of its duties hereunder and access to officers of the Trustee responsible for performing such duties.  Upon request, the Trustee shall furnish the Depositor, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and any requesting Certificateholder with its most recent audited financial statements.  The Trustee shall cooperate fully with the Seller, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor and such Certificateholder and shall, subject to the first sentence of this Section 8.12(b), make available to the Seller, the Servic er, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor and such Certificateholder for review and copying such books, documents or records as may be requested with respect to the Trustee’s duties hereunder.  The Seller, the Depositor, the Servicer and the Certificateholders shall not have any responsibility or liability for any action or failure to act by the Trustee and are not obligated to supervise the performance of the Trustee under this Agreement or otherwise.

SECTION 8.13.  Suits for Enforcement.

In case an Event of Default or other default by the Servicer, the Seller or the Depositor hereunder shall occur and be continuing, the Trustee may proceed to protect and enforce its rights and the rights of the Certificateholders under this Agreement by a suit, action or proceeding in equity or at law or otherwise, whether for the specific performance of any covenant or agreement contained in this Agreement or in aid of the execution of any power granted in this Agreement or for the enforcement of any other legal, equitable or other remedy, as the Trustee, being advised by counsel, and subject to the foregoing, shall deem most effectual to protect and enforce any of the rights of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.

Except as provided in subsection (d) of this Section 9.01, the Seller shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not including taxes) of each REMIC created hereunder, including but not limited to any professional fees or expenses related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to any such REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities, but only to the extent that (i) such expenses are ordinary or routine expenses, including expenses of a routine audit but not expenses of litigation (except as described in (ii)); or (ii) such expenses or liabilities (including taxes and penalties) are attributable to the negligence or willful misconduct of the Trustee or the Securities Administrator in fulfilling its duties hereunder (including the Securities Administrator’s duties as tax return preparer).

(d)

The Securities Administrator shall prepare and file, and the Trustee shall sign all of the federal and state tax and information returns of each REMIC created hereunder (collectively, the “Tax Returns”) as the direct representative.  The expenses of preparing and filing such Tax Returns shall be borne by the Securities Administrator.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Securities Administrator shall have no obligation to prepare, file or otherwise deal with partnership tax information or returns.  In the event that partnership tax information or returns are required by the Internal Revenue Service, the Seller, at its own cost and expense, will prepare and file all necessary returns.  

(e)

The Securities Administrator shall perform on behalf of each REMIC created hereunder all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority.  Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions or other such guidance, the Securities Administrator shall provide (i) to the Treasury or other governmental authority such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of the Class A-R Certificate to any Disqualified Organization and (ii) to the Certificateholders such information or reports as are required by the Code or REMIC Provisions.

(f)

Each of the Master Servicer, Securities Administrator and the Trustee (to the extent that the affairs of each REMIC are within such Person’s control and the scope of their specific responsibilities under the Agreement) and the Holders of Certificates shall take any action or cause each REMIC created hereunder to take any action necessary to create or maintain the status of each REMIC created hereunder as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and shall assist each other as necessary to create or maintain such status.  None of the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or the Holder a Residual Certificate shall take any action, cause each REMIC created hereunder 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 result in an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Trustee and the Securities Administrator have received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.  In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to each REMIC created hereunder or the assets therein, or causing such REMIC to take any action which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, any Holder of the Class A-R Certificate will consult with the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or their designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to such REMIC, and no such Person shall take any such action or cause each REMIC created hereunder to take any such action as to which the Trustee or the Securities Administrator has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur.  

(g)

Each Holder of the Class A-R Certificate shall pay when due any and all taxes imposed on each REMIC created hereunder by federal or state governmental authorities.  To the extent that such Trust taxes are not paid by the Class A-R Certificateholder, the Paying Agent shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of the Class A-R Certificate or, if no such amounts are available, out of other amounts held in the Distribution Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise payable to holders of regular interests in such REMIC, as the case may be.

(h)

The Securities Administrator, as agent for the Tax Matters Person shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to each REMIC created hereunder on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.

(i)

No additional contributions of assets shall be made to each REMIC created hereunder, except as expressly provided in this Agreement with respect to eligible substitute mortgage loans.

(j)

None of the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator shall enter into any arrangement by which each REMIC created hereunder will receive a fee or other compensation for services.

(k)

The Securities Administrator shall treat the Basis Risk Reserve Fund and the Yield Maintenance Account as outside reserve funds within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h) owned by the holders of the Class X Certificates and not as assets of any REMIC.  The Securities Administrator shall treat the rights of the Holders of the LIBOR Certificates to receive distributions to cover Basis Risk Shortfalls as payments under a cap contract written by the Holders of the Class X Certificates in favor of the Holders of the LIBOR Certificates.  Thus, the LIBOR Certificates shall be treated as representing not only ownership of regular interests in a REMIC, but also ownership of an interest in an interest rate cap contract.  For purposes of determining the issue prices of the Certificates, the interest rate cap contracts shall be assumed to have a zero value unless and until req uired otherwise by an applicable taxing authority.

SECTION 9.02.  Prohibited Transactions and Activities.

None of the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the Trustee shall sell, dispose of, or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans, except in a disposition pursuant to (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund, (iii) the termination of each REMIC created hereunder pursuant to Article XI of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II hereof or (v) a repurchase of Mortgage Loans as contemplated hereunder, nor acquire any assets for each REMIC created hereunder, nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Distribution Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to each REMIC created hereunder after the Closing Date, unless it has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party causing such sale, disposition, or substitution) that such disposition, acquisition, substitution, or acceptance will not (a) result in an Adverse REMIC Event ( b) affect the distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates, (c) result in the encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement), or (d) cause an REMIC created hereunder to be subject to a tax on prohibited transactions or prohibited contributions pursuant to the REMIC Provisions.

This Certificate is one of a duly authorized issue of Certificates designated as Provident Funding Mortgage Loan Trust 2005-1, Provident Funding Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-1 (herein collectively called the “Certificates”), and representing a beneficial ownership interest in the Trust created by the Agreement.

The Certificateholder, by its acceptance of this Certificate, agrees that it will look solely to the funds on deposit in the Distribution Account for payment hereunder and that the Securities Administrator, as Paying Agent is not liable to the Certificateholders for any amount payable under this Certificate or the Agreement or, except as expressly provided in the Agreement, subject to any liability under the Agreement.

This Certificate does not purport to summarize the Agreement and reference is made to the Agreement for the interests, rights and limitations of rights, benefits, obligations and duties evidenced thereby, and the rights, duties and immunities of the Trustee and the Securities Administrator.

Pursuant to the terms of the Agreement, distributions will be made on the 25^th day of each month, or if the 25^th day is not a Business Day, then on the next succeeding Business Day (the “Distribution Date”), commencing on the Distribution Date in May 2005, to the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered at the close of business on the applicable 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 Holders of Certificates of the Class to which this Certificate belongs on such Distribution Date pursuant to the Agreement.

Distributions on this Certificate shall be made, (i) in the case of a Physical Certificate, by check or money order mailed to the address of the person entitled thereto as it appears on the Certificate Register or, upon the request of a Certificateholder, by wire transfer as set forth in the Agreement and (ii) in the case of a Book-Entry Certificate, to the Depository, which shall credit the amounts of such distributions to the accounts of its Depository Participants in accordance with its normal procedures.  The final distribution on each Certificate shall be made in like manner, but only upon presentment and surrender of such Certificate at the office or agency of the Certificate Registrar specified in the notice to Certificateholders of such final distribution.

The Agreement permits, with certain exceptions therein provided, the amendment thereof and the modification of the rights of the Certificateholders under the Agreement at any time, by the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and Holders of the requisite percentage of the Percentage Interests of each Class of Certificates affected by such amendment, as specified in the Agreement.  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 therefor 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 of the Certificate Registrar upon surrender of this Certificate for registration of transfer at the office or agency maintained by the Certificate Registrar accompanied by a written instrument of transfer in form satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar 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 and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest in the Trust will be issued to the designated transferee or transferees.

[The Class A-R and Class Y Certificates are each issuable as a single certificate in physical form only in a Percentage Interest of 100%.]  [Applicable to Class A-R and Class Y Certificates only.]

[The Certificates are issuable only as registered Certificates without coupons in denominations specified in the Agreement.  As provided in the Agreement and subject to certain limitations therein set forth, Certificates are exchangeable for new Certificates of the same Class in authorized denominations and evidencing the same aggregate Percentage Interest, as requested by the Holder surrendering the same.]  [Applicable to Physical Certificates only; delete for Book-Entry Certificates.]

No service charge will be made for any such registration of transfer or exchange, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge payable in connection therewith.

The Depositor, each Seller, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Certificate Registrar and the Paying Agent and any agent of the Depositor, each Seller, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Certificate Registrar and the Paying Agent may treat the Person in whose name this Certificate is registered as the owner hereof for all purposes, and none of the Depositor, the Seller, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Certificate Registrar or the Paying Agent or any agent of any of them shall be affected by any notice to the contrary.

On any Distribution Date on which the aggregate of the Stated Principal Balances of the Mortgage Loans immediately after such date is equal to or less than 10% of the Cut-Off Date Aggregate Principal Balance, the Call Option Holder may, at its option, terminate the Agreement by purchasing, on such Distribution Date, all of the outstanding Mortgage Loans and REO Properties at the Termination Price as provided in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.  In the event that the Call Option Holder does not exercise its right of optional termination, the obligations and responsibilities created by the Agreement will terminate upon the earliest of (i) the Distribution Date on which the Class Certificate Principal Balance of each Class of Certificates has been reduced to zero, (ii) the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan and (iii) the Latest Possible Maturity Date.

TRANSFER AFFIDAVIT FOR CLASS A-R CERTIFICATE

PURSUANT TO SECTION 6.02(e)

PROVIDENT FUNDING MORTGAGE LOAN TRUST 2005-1

PROVIDENT FUNDING MORTGAGE PASS-THROUGH CERTIFICATES, SERIES 2005-1, CLASS A-R

The undersigned, being first duly sworn, deposes and says as follows:

1.

The undersigned is an officer of ______________________, the proposed Transferee of a 100% Ownership Interest in the Class A-R Certificate (the “Certificate”) issued pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, (the “Agreement”) dated as of April 1, 2005, relating to the above-referenced Certificates, among Greenwich Capital Acceptance, Inc., as Depositor, Provident Funding Associates, L.P. as seller (in such capacity, the “Seller”) and servicer (in such capacity, the “Servicer”), Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”) and securities administrator (in such capacity, the “Securities Administrator), and Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, as trustee (in such capacity, the “Trustee”) and custodian (in such capacity, the “Custodian”).  Capitalized terms used, but not defined herein, sh all have the meanings ascribed to such terms in the Agreement.  The Transferee has authorized the undersigned to make this affidavit on behalf of the Transferee.

2.

The Transferee is, as of the date hereof, and will be, as of the date of the Transfer, a Permitted Transferee.  The Transferee is acquiring its Ownership Interest for its own account and not in a capacity as trustee, nominee or agent for another party.

3.

The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that (i) a tax will be imposed on Transfers of the Certificate to Persons that are not Permitted Transferees; (ii) such tax will be imposed on the transferor, or, if such Transfer is through an agent (which includes a broker, nominee or middleman) for a Person that is not a Permitted Transferee, on the agent; and (iii) the Person otherwise liable for the tax shall be relieved of liability for the tax if the subsequent Transferee furnished to such Person an affidavit that such subsequent Transferee is a Permitted Transferee and, at the time of Transfer, such Person does not have actual knowledge that the affidavit is false.  The Transferee has provided financial statements or other financial information requested by the Transferor in connection with the transfer of the Certificate to permit the Transferor to assess the financial capability of the Transfere e to pay such taxes.

4.

The Transferee has been advised of, and understands that a tax may be imposed on a “pass-through entity” holding the Certificate if, at any time during the taxable year of the pass-through entity, a Disqualified Organization is the record holder of an interest in such entity.  The Transferee understands that such tax will not be imposed for any period with respect to which the record holder furnishes to the pass-through entity an affidavit that such record holder is not a Disqualified Organization and the pass-through entity does not have actual knowledge that such affidavit is false.  (For this purpose, a “pass-through entity” includes a regulated investment company, a real estate investment trust or common trust fund, a partnership, trust or estate, and certain cooperatives and, except as may be provided in Treasury Regulations, persons holding interests in pass-through entities as a nominee for another Person.)

5.

The Transferee has reviewed the provisions of Section 6.02(e) of the Agreement and understands the legal consequences of the acquisition of an Ownership Interest in the Certificate including, without limitation, the restrictions on subsequent Transfers and the provisions regarding voiding the Transfer and mandatory sales.  The Transferee expressly agrees to be bound by and to abide by the provisions of Section 6.02(e) of the Agreement and the restrictions noted on the face of the Certificate.  The Transferee understands and agrees that any breach of any of the representations included herein shall render the Transfer to the Transferee contemplated hereby null and void.

6.

The Transferee agrees to require a Transfer Affidavit from any Person to whom the Transferee attempts to Transfer its Ownership Interest in the Certificate, and the Transferee will not Transfer its Ownership Interest or cause any Ownership Interest to be Transferred to any Person that the Transferee knows is not a Permitted Transferee.  In connection with any such Transfer by the Transferee, the Transferee agrees to deliver to the Trustee a certificate substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit K to the Agreement (a “Transferor Certificate”).

7.

The Transferee does not have the intention to impede the assessment or collection of any tax legally required to be paid with respect to the Certificate.

8.

The Transferee’s taxpayer identification number is             .

Neither the Seller nor any affiliate of the Seller has waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under any Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note.

(xxxix)
