statements as a sale of
such Mortgage Loan by the applicable Seller to the Purchaser.
Each Seller
intends to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan to the
Purchaser as a sale
for tax purposes.
The transfer of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the
Purchaser's balance sheets and other financial statements as a

Purchaser intends
to treat the transfer of each Mortgage Loan from the applicable
Seller as a
purchase for tax purposes.
SECTION 3. Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Additional Costs
and
Expenses. (a) The Purchaser hereby directs each Seller, and each
Seller hereby
agrees, upon the transfer of the Mortgage Loans contemplated
herein, to deliver
on the Closing Date to the Trustee or a Custodian appointed
thereby, all
documents, instruments and agreements required to be delivered
by the Purchaser
to the Trustee with respect to the applicable Mortgage Loans
under Sections
2.01(b) and 2.01(c) of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and
meeting all the

privileged communications or constitute legal or other due
diligence analyses,
or internal communications of such Seller or its affiliates, or
credit
underwriting or other analyses or data.
(b) With respect to the transfer described in Section 1 hereof,
if
the Mortgage Loan documents do not require the related Mortgagor
to pay any
costs and expenses relating to any modifications to a related
letter of credit
which modifications are required to effectuate such transfer
(the "Transfer
Modification Costs"), then the applicable Seller shall pay the
Transfer
Modification Costs required to transfer the letter of credit to
the Trustee as
described in such Section 1; provided that if the Mortgage Loan
documents
require the related Mortgagor to pay any Transfer Modification
Costs, such
Transfer Modification Costs shall be an expense of the Mortgagor
unless such
Mortgagor fails to pay such Transfer Modification Costs after
the Master
Servicer has exercised all remedies available under the Mortgage
Loan documents
to collect such Transfer Modification Costs from such Mortgagor,
in which case
the Master Servicer shall give the applicable Seller notice of
such failure and
the amount of such Transfer Modification costs and the
applicable Seller shall
pay such Transfer Modification Costs.
SECTION 4. Treatment as a Security Agreement. Each Seller,
concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, has
conveyed to the
Purchaser, all of its right, title and interest in and to the
applicable
Mortgage Loans. The parties intend that such conveyance of each
Seller's right,
title and interest in and to the applicable Mortgage Loans
pursuant to this
Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan.
If such
conveyance is deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, then the
parties also intend
and agree that the applicable Seller shall be deemed to have
granted, and in
such event does hereby grant, to the Purchaser, a first priority
security
interest in all of its right, title and interest in, to and
under the applicable
Mortgage Loans, all payments of principal or interest on such
Mortgage Loans due
after the Cut-off Date, all other payments made in respect of
such Mortgage
Loans after the Cut-off Date (except to the extent such payments
were due on or
before the Cut-off Date) and all proceeds thereof and that this
Agreement shall
constitute a security agreement under applicable law. If such
conveyance is
deemed to be a pledge and not a sale, the applicable Seller
consents to the
Purchaser hypothecating and transferring such security interest
in favor of the
Trustee and transferring the obligation secured thereby to the
Trustee.
SECTION 5. Covenants of the Sellers. Each Seller covenants with
the
Purchaser as follows:
(a) it shall record or cause a third party to record in the
appropriate public recording office for real property the
intermediate
assignments of the applicable Mortgage Loans and the Assignments
of Mortgage

in the name of
Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. ("MERS") or its
designee, no
assignment of Mortgage Loans, Assignment of Mortgage or other
recorded document
in favor of the Trustee will be required to be prepared or
delivered and
instead, such Seller shall take all actions as are necessary to
cause the
Trustee to be shown as, and shall deliver evidence of any such
transfers to the
Master Servicer and the Special Servicer, and the Trustee shall
take all actions
necessary to confirm that it is shown as, the owner of the
related Mortgage on
the records of MERS for purposes of the system of recording
transfers of
beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS. All
recording fees
relating to the initial recordation of such intermediate
assignments and
Assignments of Mortgage shall be paid by such Seller;

Purchaser,
the Trustee or the Master Servicer, in order to assist and

of the Master
Servicer) for the benefit of Certificateholders. Prior to the

of credit, if any, with respect to any applicable Mortgage Loan
is transferred
to the Trustee (in care of the Master Servicer), such Seller
will cooperate with
the reasonable requests of the Master Servicer or Special
Servicer, as
applicable, in connection with effectuating a draw under such
letter of credit

to the Natixis RE Mortgage Loans and the Natixis CMF Mortgage
Loans set forth in
Exhibit B as of the Closing Date (or as of such other date if

representations
and warranties are subject to the exceptions thereto set forth
in Exhibit C.
Neither the delivery by the Sellers of the Mortgage Files,
Servicing Files, or
any other documents required to be delivered under Section 2.01
of the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement, nor the review thereof or any other due
diligence by
the Trustee, any Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, a
Certificate Owner or
any other Person shall relieve a Seller of any liability or
obligation with
respect to any representation or warranty or otherwise under
this Agreement or
constitute notice to any Person of a Breach or Defect (it being
understood that
only Natixis RE shall be liable with respect to any
representation or warranty
set forth on Exhibit B with respect to the Mortgage Loans
(including the Natixis
CMF Mortgage Loans)).
(d) Pursuant to this Agreement or Section 2.03(b) of the Pooling
and
Servicing Agreement, the Sellers and the Purchaser shall be
given notice of any
Breach or Defect that materially and adversely affects the value
of any Mortgage
Loan, the value of the related Mortgaged Property or the
interests of the
Trustee or any Certificateholder therein.
(e) Upon notice pursuant to Section 6(d) above, Natixis RE
shall,
not later than 90 days from the earlier of a Seller's receipt of
the notice or,
in the case of a Defect or Breach relating to a Mortgage Loan
not being a
"qualified mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of
the Code, but
without regard to the rule of Treasury Regulation Section
1.860G-2(f)(2) that
causes a defective mortgage loan to be treated as a qualified
mortgage, a
Seller's discovery of such Breach or Defect (the "Initial
Resolution Period"),
(i) cure such Defect or Breach, as the case may be, in all
material respects,
(ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan at the applicable
Repurchase Price
(as defined below) or (iii) substitute a Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan (as
defined below) for such affected Mortgage Loan (provided that in
no event shall
any such substitution occur later than the second anniversary of
the Closing
Date) and pay the Master Servicer for deposit into the
Certificate Account, any
Substitution Shortfall Amount (as defined below) in connection
therewith;
provided, however, except with respect to a Defect resulting
solely from the
failure by a Seller to deliver to the Trustee or Custodian the
actual policy of
lender's title insurance required pursuant to clause (ix) of the
definition of
Mortgage File by a date not later than 18 months following the
Closing Date, if
such Breach or Defect is capable of being cured but is not cured
within the
Initial Resolution Period, and Natixis RE has commenced and is
diligently
proceeding with the cure of such Breach or Defect within the
Initial Resolution
Period, Natixis RE shall have an additional 90 days commencing
immediately upon
the expiration of the Initial Resolution Period (the "Extended
Resolution
Period") to complete such cure (or, failing such cure, to
repurchase the related
Mortgage Loan or substitute a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan
as described
above); and provided, further, with respect to the Extended
Resolution Period
Natixis RE shall have delivered an officer's certificate to the
Rating Agencies,
the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee and the
Directing
Certificateholder setting forth the reason such Breach or Defect
is not capable
of being cured within the Initial Resolution Period and what
actions Natixis RE
is pursuing in connection with the cure thereof and stating that
Natixis RE
anticipates that such Breach or Defect will be cured within the
Extended
Resolution Period. Notwithstanding the foregoing, any Defect or
Breach which
causes any Mortgage Loan not to be a "qualified mortgage"
(within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, without regard to the rule of
Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f)(2) which causes a defective
mortgage loan to be
treated as a qualified mortgage) shall be deemed to materially
and adversely
affect the interests of the holders of the Certificates therein,
and such
Mortgage Loan shall be repurchased or a Qualified Substitute
Mortgage Loan
substituted in lieu thereof without regard to the extended cure
period described
in the preceding sentence. If the affected Mortgage Loan is to
be repurchased,
Natixis RE shall remit the Repurchase Price (defined below) in
immediately
available funds to the Trustee.
If any Breach pertains to a representation or warranty that
the
related Mortgage Loan documents or any particular Mortgage Loan
document
requires the related Mortgagor to bear the costs and expenses
associated with
any particular action or matter under such Mortgage Loan
document(s), then
Natixis RE shall cure such Breach within the applicable cure
period (as the same
may be extended) by reimbursing the Trust Fund (by wire transfer
of immediately
available funds) the reasonable amount of any such costs and
expenses incurred
by the Master Servicer, the Special Servicer, the Trustee or the
Trust Fund that
are the basis of such Breach and have not been reimbursed by the
related
Mortgagor; provided, however, in the event any such costs and
expenses exceed
$10,000, Natixis RE shall have the option to either repurchase
or substitute for
the related Mortgage Loan as provided above or pay such costs
and expenses.
Except as provided in the proviso to the immediately preceding
sentence, Natixis
RE shall remit the amount of such costs and expenses and upon
its making such
remittance, Natixis RE shall be deemed to have cured such Breach
in all
respects. To the extent any fees or expenses that are the
subject of a cure by
Natixis RE are subsequently obtained from the related Mortgagor,
the portion of
the cure payment equal to such fees or expenses obtained from
the Mortgagor
shall be returned to Natixis RE pursuant to Section 2.03(f) of
the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sole
remedy with respect
to any breach of the representation set forth in the second to
last sentence of
clause (32) of Exhibit B hereto shall be payment by Natixis RE
of such costs and
expenses without respect to the materiality of such breach.
Any of the following will cause a document in the Mortgage File
to
be deemed to have a Defect and to be conclusively presumed to
materially and
adversely affect the interests of Certificateholders in a
Mortgage Loan and to
be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests of
the
Certificateholders in and the value of a Mortgage Loan: (a) the
absence from the
Mortgage File of the original signed Mortgage Note, unless the
Mortgage File
contains a signed lost note affidavit and indemnity with a copy
of the Mortgage
Note that appears to be regular on its face; (b) the absence
from the Mortgage
File of the original signed Mortgage that appears to be regular
on its face,
unless there is included in the Mortgage File a certified copy
of the Mortgage
and a certificate stating that the original signed Mortgage was
sent for
recordation; (c) the absence from the Mortgage File of the
lender's title
insurance policy (or if the policy has not yet been issued, an
original or copy
of a "marked up" written commitment or the pro-forma or specimen
title insurance
policy or a commitment to issue the same pursuant to written
escrow instructions
signed by the title insurance company) called for by clause (ix)
of the
definition of "Mortgage File" in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement; (d) the
absence from the Mortgage File of any required letter of credit;
(e) with
respect to any leasehold mortgage loan, the absence from the
related Mortgage
File of a copy (or an original, if available) of the related
Ground Lease; or
(f) the absence from the Mortgage File of any intervening
assignments required
to create a complete chain of assignments to the Trustee on
behalf of the Trust,
unless there is included in the Mortgage File a certified copy
of the
intervening assignment and a certificate stating that the
original intervening
assignments were sent for recordation; provided, however, no
Defect (except the
Defects previously described in clauses (a) through (f)) shall
be considered to
materially and adversely affect the value of any Mortgage Loan,
the value of the
related Mortgaged Property, or the interests of the Trustee
therein or the
interests of any Certificateholder therein unless the document
with respect to
which the Defect exists is required in connection with an
imminent enforcement
of the Mortgagee's rights or remedies under the related Mortgage
Loan, defending
any claim asserted by any borrower or third party with respect
to the Mortgage
Loan, establishing the validity or priority of any lien on any
collateral
securing the Mortgage Loan or for any immediate significant
servicing
obligation. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the delivery of
executed escrow
instructions or a commitment to issue a lender's title insurance
policy, as
provided in clause (ix) of the definition of "Mortgage File" in
the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, in lieu of the delivery of the actual
policy of lender's
title insurance, shall not be considered a Defect or Breach with
respect to any
Mortgage File if such actual policy is delivered to the Trustee
or its Custodian
within 18 months after the Closing Date.
If (i) any Mortgage Loan is required to be repurchased or
substituted for in the manner described in the first paragraph
of this Section
6(e), (ii) such Mortgage Loan is a Crossed Loan, and (iii) the
applicable Defect
or Breach does not constitute a Defect or Breach, as the case
may be, as to any
other Crossed Loan in such Crossed Group (without regard to this
paragraph),
then the applicable Defect or Breach, as the case may be, will
be deemed to
constitute a Defect or Breach, as the case may be, as to each
other Crossed Loan
in the Crossed Group for purposes of this paragraph, and Natixis
RE will be
required to repurchase or substitute for all of the remaining
Crossed Loans in
the related Crossed Group as provided in the first paragraph of
this Section
6(e) unless such other Crossed Loans in such Crossed Group
satisfy the Crossed
Loan Repurchase Criteria, and the Mortgage Loan affected by the
applicable
Defect or Breach and the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, if
any, satisfy all
other criteria for repurchase or substitution, as applicable, of
Mortgage Loans
set forth herein. In the event that the remaining Crossed Loans
satisfy the
aforementioned criteria, Natixis RE may elect either to
repurchase or substitute
for only the affected Crossed Loan as to which the related
Breach or Defect
exists or to repurchase or substitute for all of the Crossed
Loans in the
related Crossed Group. Natixis RE shall be responsible for the
cost of any
Appraisal required to be obtained by the Master Servicer to
determine if the
Crossed Loan Repurchase Criteria have been satisfied, so long as
the scope and
cost of such Appraisal has been approved by Natixis RE (such
approval not to be
unreasonably withheld).
To the extent that Natixis RE is required to repurchase or
substitute for a Crossed Loan hereunder in the manner prescribed
above while the
Trustee continues to hold any other Crossed Loans in such
Crossed Group, neither
Natixis RE nor the Trustee shall enforce any remedies against
the other's
Primary Collateral, but each is permitted to exercise remedies
against the
Primary Collateral securing its respective Crossed Loans,
including with respect
to the Trustee, the Primary Collateral securing Crossed Loans
still held by the
Trustee.
If the exercise of remedies by one party would materially impair
the
ability of the other party to exercise its remedies with respect
to the Primary
Collateral securing the Crossed Loans held by such party, then
Natixis RE and
the Trustee shall forbear from exercising such remedies until
the Mortgage Loan
documents evidencing and securing the relevant Crossed Loans can
be modified in
a manner that removes the threat of material impairment as a
result of the
exercise of remedies or some other accommodation can be reached.
Any reserve or
other cash collateral or letters of credit securing the Crossed
Loans shall be
allocated between such Crossed Loans in accordance with the
Mortgage Loan
documents, or otherwise on a pro rata basis based upon their
outstanding Stated
Principal Balances. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a Crossed
Loan that
remains in the Trust Fund is modified to terminate the related
cross
collateralization and/or cross default provisions, as a
condition to such
modification, Natixis RE shall furnish to the Trustee an Opinion
of Counsel that
any modification shall not cause an Adverse REMIC Event. Any
expenses incurred
by the Purchaser in connection with such modification or
accommodation
(including but not limited to recoverable attorney fees) shall
be paid by
Natixis RE.
The "Repurchase Price" with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO
Loan
to be repurchased pursuant to this Agreement and Section 2.03 of
the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement, shall have the meaning given to the term
"Purchase Price"
in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
A "Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan" with respect to any
Mortgage
Loan or REO Loan to be substituted pursuant to this Agreement
and Section 2.03
of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, shall have the meaning
given to such
term in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
A "Substitution Shortfall Amount" with respect to any Mortgage
Loan
or REO Loan to be substituted pursuant to this Agreement and
Section 2.03 of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, shall have the meaning given to
such term in
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
In connection with any repurchase or substitution of one or
more
Mortgage Loans contemplated hereby, (i) the Purchaser shall
execute and deliver,
or cause the execution and delivery of, such endorsements and
assignments,
without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in Natixis RE
the legal and
beneficial ownership of each repurchased Mortgage Loan or
replaced Mortgage
Loan, as applicable, (ii) the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause
the delivery, to
Natixis RE of all portions of the Mortgage File and other
documents (including
the Servicing File) pertaining to such Mortgage Loan possessed
by the Trustee,
or on the Trustee's behalf, and (iii) the Purchaser shall
release, or cause to
be released, to Natixis RE any escrow payments and reserve funds
held by the
Trustee, or on the Trustee's behalf, in respect of such
repurchased or replaced
Mortgage Loans.
(f) The representations and warranties of the parties hereto
shall
survive the execution and delivery and any termination of this
Agreement and
shall inure to the benefit of the respective parties,
notwithstanding any
restrictive or qualified endorsement on the Mortgage Notes or
Assignment of
Mortgage or the examination of the Mortgage Files.
(g) Each party hereby agrees to promptly notify the other party
of
any Breach of a representation or warranty contained in this
Section 6. Natixis
RE's obligation to cure any Breach or Defect or repurchase or
substitute for the
affected Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 6(e) herein shall
constitute the sole
remedy available to the Purchaser in connection with a Breach or
Defect (subject
to the last sentence of the second paragraph of Section 6(e)).
It is
acknowledged and agreed that the representations and warranties
are being made
for risk allocation purposes only; provided, however, no
limitation of remedy is
implied with respect to Natixis RE's breach of its obligation to
cure,
repurchase or substitute in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this
Agreement.

binding agreement of such Seller enforceable against such
Seller,
whether such enforcement is sought in a procedure at law or

and public policy considerations underlying the securities laws,
to
the extent that such public policy considerations limit the
enforceability of the provisions of the Agreement which purport
to
provide indemnification with respect to securities law

(D) such Seller's execution and delivery of, and such
Seller's
performance of its obligations under, each of this Agreement
and, in
