POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT
THIS POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated April 28, 2005, is
hereby executed by and among BANC OF
AMERICA FUNDING CORPORATION, as depositor
(together with its permitted successors and
assigns, the "Depositor"),
GREENPOINT MORTGAGE FUNDING, INC., as
servicer (together with its permitted
successors and assigns, "GreenPoint" or the
"Servicer"), and WELLS FARGO BANK,
N.A., as trustee (together with its
permitted successors and assigns, the
"Trustee").
W I T N E S S E T H T
H A T:
In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the
Depositor, the Servicer and the Trustee
agree as follows:
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
The Trust Estate for federal income tax purposes will be treated
as
two real estate mortgage investment
conduits (the "Upper-Tier REMIC" and the
"Lower-Tier REMIC," respectively, and each
a "REMIC"). The Offered Certificates
(other than the Class A-3 Certificates) and
each Component (exclusive of the
right of such Certificates or Components to
receive Cap Carryover Amounts) and
the Class CE Certificates shall constitute
"regular interests" in the Upper-Tier
REMIC. The Certificates (other than the
Class R and Class P Certificates) are
the "Regular Certificates." The
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests shall
constitute the "regular interests" in the
Lower-Tier REMIC. The "Class LR
Interest" shall be the "residual interest"
in the Lower-Tier REMIC. The "Class
UR Interest" shall be the "residual
interest" in the Upper-Tier REMIC. The
portion of the Trust Estate consisting of
the Reserve Account, the Yield
Maintenance Agreements, the Class P
Certificates, the rights of the Offered
Certificates to receive Cap Carryover
Amounts and the obligation of the Class CE
Certificates to pay Cap Carryover Amounts
shall not be assets of either REMIC
created hereunder, but rather shall be
assets of the Grantor Trust. The assets
of the Grantor Trust, the Certificates and
the Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interests will represent the entire
beneficial ownership interest in the Trust.
The "latest possible maturity date" for
federal income tax purposes of all
interests created hereby will be the REMIC
Certificate Maturity Date.

ARTICLE II
CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS
ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES
Section 2.01 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans. (a) The Depositor,
concurrently with the execution and
delivery hereof, hereby sells, transfers,
assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to
the Trustee on behalf of the Trust
for the benefit of the Certificateholders,
without recourse, all the right,
title and interest of the Depositor in and
to the Mortgage Loans, including all
interest and principal received on or with
respect to the Mortgage Loans (other
than payments of principal and interest due
and payable on the Mortgage Loans on
or before the Cut-off Date), and the
Depositor's rights under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement, including the rights of
the Depositor as assignee of the
Seller with respect to the Seller's rights
under the Servicing Agreement. The
foregoing sale, transfer, assignment and
set over does not and is not intended
to result in a creation of an assumption by
the Trustee of any obligation of the
Depositor or any other Person in connection
with the Mortgage Loans or any
agreement or instrument relating thereto,
except as specifically set forth
herein.
(b) In connection with such transfer and assignment, the
Depositor
has delivered or caused to be delivered to
the Trustee, or the Custodian on
behalf of the Trustee, for the benefit of
the Certificateholders, the following
documents or instruments with respect to
each Mortgage Loan so assigned:
(i) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or facsimile
signature
in the following form: "Pay to the order of Wells Fargo Bank,
N.A., as
trustee for holders of Banc of America Funding Corporation
Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-C, without recourse,"
with
all
necessary intervening endorsements showing a complete chain of
endorsement from the originator to the Trustee (each such
endorsement
being
sufficient to transfer all right, title and interest of the party
so
endorsing,
as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage
Note) and,
in the case of any Mortgage Loan originated in the State of New
York
documented by a NYCEMA, the NYCEMA, the new Mortgage Note, if
applicable, the consolidated Mortgage Note and the consolidated
Mortgage;
(ii) except as provided below, the original recorded Mortgage
with
evidence
of a recording thereon, or if any such Mortgage has not been
returned
from the applicable recording office or has been lost, or if
such
public
recording office retains the original recorded Mortgage, a copy
of
such
Mortgage certified by the Servicer (which may be part of a
blanket
certification) as being a true and correct copy of the
Mortgage;
(iii)
subject to the provisos at the end of this paragraph, a duly
executed
Assignment of Mortgage to "Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as trustee
for
the
holders of Banc of America Funding Corporation Mortgage
Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2005-C" (which may be included in a
blanket
assignment
or assignments), together with, except as provided below,
originals
of all interim recorded assignments of such mortgage or a copy
of such
interim assignment certified by the Servicer (which may be part
of
a blanket
certification) as being a true and complete copy of the
original
recorded
intervening assignments of Mortgage (each such assignment, when
duly and
validly completed, to be in recordable form and sufficient to
effect the
assignment of and transfer to the assignee thereof, under the
Mortgage
to which the assignment relates); provided that, if the related
Mortgage
has not been returned from the applicable public recording
office,
such Assignment of Mortgage may exclude the information to be
provided
by the recording office; and provided, further, if the related
Mortgage
has been recorded in the name of Mortgage Electronic
Registration
Systems,
Inc. ("MERS") or its designee, no Assignment of Mortgage in
favor
of the
Trustee will be required to be prepared or delivered and
instead,
the
Servicer shall take all actions as are necessary to cause the Trust
to
be shown
as the owner of the related Mortgage Loan on the records of
MERS
for
purposes of the system of recording transfers of beneficial
ownership
of
mortgages maintained by MERS;
(iv) the originals of all assumption, modification, consolidation
or
extension
agreements, if any, with evidence of recording thereon, if any;
(v) any of (A) the original or duplicate original mortgagee
title
insurance
policy and all riders thereto; (B) a title search showing no
lien
(other than standard exceptions) on the Mortgaged Property senior
to
the lien
of the Mortgage or (C) an opinion of counsel of the type
customarily rendered in the applicable jurisdiction in lieu of a
title
insurance
policy;
(vi) the original of any guarantee executed in connection with
the
Mortgage
Note;
(vii) for each Mortgage Loan, if any, which is secured by a
residential long-term lease, a copy of the lease with evidence
of
recording
indicated thereon, or, if the lease is in the process of being
recorded,
a photocopy of the lease, certified by an officer of the
respective
prior owner of such Mortgage Loan or by the applicable title
insurance
company, closing/settlement/escrow agent or company or closing
attorney
to be a true and correct copy of the lease transmitted for
recordation;
(viii) the original of any security agreement, chattel mortgage
or
equivalent
document executed in connection with the Mortgage; and
(ix) for each Mortgage Loan secured by Co-op Shares, the
originals
of the
following documents or instruments:
(A) The stock certificate;
(B) The stock power executed in blank;
(C) The executed proprietary lease;
(D) The executed recognition agreement;
(E) The executed assignment of recognition agreement, if
any;
(F) The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence
of recording thereon; and
(G) Executed UCC-3 financing statements or other
appropriate UCC financing statements required by state law,
evidencing a complete and unbroken line from the mortgagee to
the Trustee with evidence of recording thereon (or in a form
suitable for recordation).
provided, however, that on the Closing
Date, with respect to item (iii), if an
Assignment of Mortgage is required to be
recorded as set forth below, the
Depositor has delivered to the Trustee, or
the Custodian on behalf of the
Trustee, a copy of such Assignment of
Mortgage in blank rather than in the name
of the Trustee and has caused the Servicer
to retain the completed Assignment of
Mortgage for recording as described below,
unless such Mortgage has been
recorded in the name of MERS or its
designee. In addition, if the Depositor is
unable to deliver or cause the delivery of
any original Mortgage Note due to the
loss of such original Mortgage Note, the
Depositor may deliver a copy of such
Mortgage Note, together with a lost note
affidavit, and shall thereby be deemed
to have satisfied the document delivery
requirements of this Section 2.01(b). As
set forth on Exhibit J attached hereto is a
list of all states where recordation
is required by any Rating Agency to obtain
the initial ratings of the
Certificates. The Trustee may rely and
shall be protected in relying upon the
information contained in such Exhibit
J.
If in connection with any Mortgage Loans, the Depositor cannot
deliver (A) the Mortgage, (B) all interim
recorded assignments, (C) all
assumption, modification, consolidation or
extension agreements, if any, or (D)
the lender's title policy, if any (together
with all riders thereto), satisfying
the requirements of clause (ii), (iii),
(iv) or (v) above, respectively,
concurrently with the execution and
delivery hereof because such document or
documents have not been returned from the
applicable public recording office in
the case of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv)
above, or because the title policy, if
any, has not been delivered to any of the
Servicer, the Seller or the Depositor
by the applicable title insurer in the case
of clause (v) above, the Depositor
shall promptly deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Trustee, or the Custodian
on behalf of the Trustee, in the case of
clause (ii), (iii) or (iv) above, such
Mortgage, such interim assignment or such
assumption, modification,
consolidation or extension agreement, as
the case may be, with evidence of
recording indicated thereon upon receipt
thereof from the public recording
office, but in no event shall any such
delivery of any such documents or
instruments be made later than one year
following the Closing Date, unless, in
the case of clause (ii), (iii) or (iv)
above, there has been a continuing delay
at the applicable recording office or, in
the case of clause (v) above, there
has been a continuing delay at the
applicable insurer and the Depositor has
delivered the Officer's Certificate to such
effect to the Trustee. The Depositor
shall forward or cause to be forwarded to
the Trustee, or the Custodian on
behalf of the Trustee, from time to time
(1) additional original documents
evidencing an assumption or modification of
a Mortgage Loan and (2) any other
documents required to be delivered by the
Depositor or the Servicer to the
Trustee. In the event that the original
Mortgage is not delivered and in
connection with the payment in full of the
related Mortgage Loan the public
recording office requires the presentation
of a "lost instruments affidavit and
indemnity" or any equivalent document,
because only a copy of the Mortgage can
be delivered with the instrument of
satisfaction or reconveyance, the Depositor
shall prepare, execute and deliver or cause
to be prepared, executed and
delivered, on behalf of the Trust, such a
document to the public recording
office.
As promptly as practicable subsequent to such transfer and
assignment, the Servicer shall (except for
any Mortgage which has been recorded
in the name of MERS or its designee) (I)
cause each Assignment of Mortgage to be
in proper form for recording in the
appropriate public office for real property
records within 30 days of the Closing Date
and (II) at the Depositor's expense,
cause to be delivered for recording in the
appropriate public office for real
property records the Assignments of the
Mortgages to the Trustee, except that,
with respect to any Assignment of a
Mortgage as to which the Servicer has not
received the information required to
prepare such assignment in recordable form,
the Servicer's obligation to do so and to
deliver the same for such recording
shall be as soon as practicable after
receipt of such information and in any
event within 30 days after the receipt
thereof; provided, however, no recording
of an Assignment of Mortgage will be
required in a state if either (i) the
Depositor furnishes to the Trustee an
unqualified Opinion of Counsel reasonably
acceptable to the Trustee to the effect
that recordation of such assignment is
not necessary under applicable state law to
preserve the Trustee's interest in
the related Mortgage Loan against the claim
of any subsequent transferee of such
Mortgage Loan or any successor to, or
creditor of, the Depositor or the
originator of such Mortgage Loan or (ii)
the recordation of an Assignment of
Mortgage in such state is not required by
any Rating Agency in order to obtain
the initial ratings on the Certificates on
the Closing Date.
In the case of Mortgage Loans that have been prepaid in full as
of
the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of
delivering the above documents to
the Trustee, or the Custodian on behalf of
the Trustee, will cause the Servicer
to deposit in the Servicer Custodial
Account the portion of such payment that is
required to be deposited in such Servicer
Custodial Account pursuant to Section
3.09.
Section 2.02 Acceptance by the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.
Subject to the provisions of the following
paragraph, the Trustee declares that
it, or the Custodian as its agent, will
hold the documents referred to in
Section 2.01 and the other documents
delivered to it constituting the Mortgage
Files, and that it will hold such other
assets as are included in the Trust
Estate delivered to it, in trust for the
exclusive use and benefit of all
present and future Certificateholders. Upon
execution and delivery of this
document, the Trustee shall deliver, or
shall cause the Custodian to deliver, to
the Depositor, the Trustee and the NIMS
Insurer a certification in the form of
Exhibit K hereto (the "Initial
Certification") to the effect that, except as may
be specified in a list of exceptions
attached thereto, it has received the
original Mortgage Note relating to each of
the Mortgage Loans listed on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule.
Within 90 days after the execution and delivery of this
Agreement,
the Trustee shall review, or shall cause
the Custodian to review, the Mortgage
Files in its possession, and shall deliver
to the Depositor, the Trustee and the
NIMS Insurer a certification in the form of
Exhibit L hereto (the "Final
Certification") to the effect that, as to
each Mortgage Loan listed in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule, except as may be
specified in a list of exceptions
attached to such Final Certification, such
Mortgage File contains all of the
items required to be delivered pursuant to
Section 2.01(b).
If, in the course of such review, the Trustee or the Custodian
finds
any document constituting a part of a
Mortgage File which does not meet the
requirements of Section 2.01 or is omitted
from such Mortgage File or if the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee or the
NIMS Insurer discovers a breach by
the Servicer or the Seller of any
representation, warranty or covenant under the
Servicing Agreement or the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement in respect of any
Mortgage Loan and such breach materially
adversely affects the interest of the
Certificateholders in the related Mortgage
Loan (provided that any such breach
that causes the Mortgage Loan not to be a
"qualified mortgage" within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the code
shall be deemed to materially and
adversely affect the interests of the
Certificateholders), then such party shall
promptly so notify the Seller or the
Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and
the Depositor of such failure to meet the
requirements of Section 2.01 or of
such breach and request that the Depositor,
the Servicer or the Seller, as the
case may be, deliver such missing
documentation or cure such defect or breach
within 90 days of its discovery or its
receipt of notice of any such failure to
meet the requirements of Section 2.01 or of
such breach. If the Depositor, the
Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be,
does not deliver such missing
document or cure such defect or breach in
all material respects during such
period, the Trustee shall enforce the
obligation of the Depositor, the Servicer
or Seller, as the case may be, under this
Agreement, the Servicing Agreement or
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, as
applicable, and cause the Depositor,
the Servicer or the Seller to either (a) in
the case of the Seller only,
substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a
Substitute Mortgage Loan, which
substitution shall be accomplished in the
manner and subject to the conditions
set forth below or (b) purchase such
Mortgage Loan from the Trust at the
Repurchase Price for such Mortgage Loan;
provided, however, that in no event
shall such a substitution occur more than
two years from the Closing Date;
provided, further, that such substitution
or repurchase must occur within 90
days of when such defect was discovered if
such defect will cause the Mortgage
Loan not to be a "qualified mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3)
of the Code.
In performing any such review, the Trustee or the Custodian may
conclusively rely on the purported
genuineness of any such document and any
signature thereon. It is understood that
the scope of the Trustee's or the
Custodian's review of the Mortgage Files is
limited solely to confirming that
the documents listed in Section 2.01 have
been received and further confirming
that any and all documents delivered
pursuant to Section 2.01 appear on their
face to have been executed and relate to
the Mortgage Loans identified in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule based solely upon
the review of items (i) and (xi) in the
definition of Mortgage Loan Schedule.
Neither the Trustee nor the Custodian
shall have any responsibility for
determining whether any document is valid and
binding, whether the text of any assignment
or endorsement is in proper or
recordable form, whether any document has
been recorded in accordance with the
requirements of any applicable
jurisdiction, or whether a blanket assignment is
permitted in any applicable
jurisdiction.
In the event of a discovery of a breach of any representation
or
warranty of the Servicer or the Seller, the
Trustee shall enforce the rights of
the Trust under the Servicing Agreement and
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
for the benefit of the Certificateholders.
In the event of a breach of the
representations or warranties with respect
to the Mortgage Loans set forth in
the Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall
enforce the right of the Trust to be
indemnified for such breach of
representation or warranty. In addition, if a
breach of a representation set forth in
clauses (k) and (o) of paragraph 3 of
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement occurs
as a result of a violation of an
applicable predatory or abusive lending
law, the Trustee shall enforce the right
of the Trust to reimbursement by the Seller
for all costs or damages incurred by
the Trust as a result of the violation of
such law (such amount, the
"Reimbursement Amount"), but, in the case
of a breach of a representation set
forth in clauses (k) and (o) of paragraph
3, only to the extent the Servicer
does not so reimburse the Trust. It is
understood and agreed that, except for
any indemnification provided in the
Servicing Agreement and the payment of any
Reimbursement Amount, the obligation of the
Servicer or the Seller to cure or to
repurchase (or substitute, in the case of
the Seller) 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 remedies against the Servicer or the
Seller in respect of such omission,
defect or breach available to the Trustee
on behalf of the Certificateholders.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties
set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase
Agreement shall survive delivery of the
Mortgage Files to the Trustee, or the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, and
shall inure to the benefit of the
Certificateholders notwithstanding any
restrictive or qualified endorsement or
assignment. With respect to the
representations and warranties set forth in
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement
that are made to the best of the Seller's
knowledge or as to which the Seller
had no knowledge, if it is discovered by
the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer or the
Trustee that the substance of such
representation or warranty is inaccurate and
such inaccuracy materially and adversely
affects the interest of the
Certificateholders in the related Mortgage
Loan then, notwithstanding the
Seller's lack of knowledge with respect to
the substance of such representation
or warranty being inaccurate at the time
the representation or warranty was
made, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a
breach of the applicable representation
or warranty.
The representations and warranties of the Servicer with respect
to
the Mortgage Loans in the Servicing
Agreement, which have been assigned to the
Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date
specified in the Servicing
Agreement. To the extent that any fact,
condition or event with respect to a
Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of both
(i) a representation or warranty of
the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement
and (ii) a representation or warranty
of the Seller under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement, the only right or
remedy of the Trustee or of any
Certificateholder shall be the Trustee's right
to enforce the obligations of the Servicer
under any applicable representation
or warranty made by it. The Trustee
acknowledges that the Seller shall have no
obligation or liability with respect to any
breach of a representation or
warranty made by it with respect to the
Mortgage Loans if the fact, condition or
event constituting such breach also
constitutes a breach of a representation or
warranty made by the Servicer in the
Servicing Agreement, without regard to
whether the Servicer fulfills its
contractual obligations in respect of such
representation or warranty. The Trustee
further acknowledges that the Depositor
shall have no obligation or liability with
respect to any breach of any
representation or warranty with respect to
the Mortgage Loans (except as set
forth in Section 2.04) under any
circumstances.
With
respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall
deliver to the Trustee, or the Custodian on
behalf of the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Certificateholders, the
Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the related
Assignment of Mortgage (except for any
Mortgage which has been recorded in the
name of MERS or its designee), and such
other documents and agreements as are
otherwise required by Section 2.01, with
the Mortgage Note endorsed and the
Mortgage assigned as required by Section
2.01. No substitution is permitted to
be made in any calendar month after the
Determination Date for such month.
Monthly Payments due with respect to any
such Substitute Mortgage Loan in the
month of substitution shall not be part of
the Trust Estate. For the month of
substitution, distributions to
Certificateholders will include the Monthly
Payment due for such month on any Defective
Mortgage Loan for which the Seller
has substituted a Substitute Mortgage
Loan.
The Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the
benefit
of the Certificateholders to reflect the
removal of each Mortgage Loan that has
become a Defective Mortgage Loan and the
substitution of the Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans and the Servicer shall
deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule
to the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and the
Custodian. Upon such substitution, each
Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be subject
to the terms of this Agreement in all
respects, and the Servicer shall be deemed
to have made to the Trustee with
respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan,
as of the date of substitution, the
representations and warranties made
pursuant to the Servicing Agreement. Upon
any such substitution and the remittance to
the Trustee for deposit to the
Distribution Account of any required
Substitution Adjustment Amount (as
described in the next paragraph) and
receipt of a Request for Release, the
Trustee shall, or the Custodian on behalf
of the Trustee upon receipt of written
notice from the Trustee of such deposit
shall, release the Mortgage File
relating to such Defective Mortgage Loan to
the Seller and shall execute and
deliver at the Seller's direction such
instruments of transfer or assignment
prepared by the Seller, in each case
without recourse, as shall be necessary to
vest title in the Seller, or its designee,
to the Trustee's interest in any
Defective Mortgage Loan substituted for
pursuant to this Section 2.02.
For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more
Substitute
Mortgage Loans for one or more Defective
Mortgage Loans, the amount (if any) by
which the aggregate principal balance of
all such Substitute Mortgage Loans as
of the date of substitution is less than
the aggregate Stated Principal Balance
of all such Defective Mortgage Loans (after
application of the principal portion
of the Monthly Payments due in the month of
substitution) (the "Substitution
Adjustment Amount") plus an amount equal to
the aggregate of any unreimbursed
Advances with respect to such Defective
Mortgage Loans shall be remitted to the
Trustee for deposit to the Distribution
Account by the Seller on or before the
Remittance Date for the Distribution Date
in the month succeeding the calendar
month during which the related Mortgage
Loan is required to be purchased or
replaced hereunder. The Repurchase Price of
any repurchase and the Substitution
Adjustment Amount, if any, shall be
remitted to the Trustee for deposit to the
Distribution Account.
The Trustee, or the Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, shall
retain
possession and custody of each Mortgage
File in accordance with and subject to
the terms and conditions set forth herein.
The Servicer shall cause to be
promptly delivered to the Trustee, or the
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee,

be
under no duty or obligation (i) to inspect,

documents, instruments, certificates or
other papers to determine that they are
genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for
the represented purpose or that they
are other than what they purport to be on
their face or (ii) to determine
whether any Mortgage File should include
any of the documents specified in
Section 2.01(b)(iv), (vi), (vii), (viii)
and (ix).

of
the Trust, the Yield Maintenance
Agreements.

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans. For and on
behalf
of the Certificateholders, GreenPoint shall
service and administer the Mortgage
Loans, in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement, Customary Servicing
Procedures, applicable law and the terms of
the Mortgage Notes and Mortgages. In
connection with such servicing and
administration, the Servicer shall have full
power and authority, acting alone and/or
through Subservicers as provided in
Section 3.02, to do or cause to be done any
and all things that it may deem
necessary or desirable in connection with
such servicing and administration
including, but not limited to, the power
and authority, subject to the terms
hereof, (a) to execute and deliver, on
behalf of the Certificateholders and the
Trustee, customary consents or waivers and
other instruments and documents, (b)
to consent, with respect to the Mortgage
Loans it services, to transfers of any
Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the
Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages
(but only in the manner provided in this
Agreement), (c) to collect any
Insurance Proceeds and other Liquidation
Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loans
it services, and (d) to effectuate
foreclosure or other conversion of the
ownership of the Mortgaged Property
securing any Mortgage Loan it services. The
Servicer shall represent and protect the
interests of the Trust in the same
manner as it protects its own interests in
mortgage loans in its own portfolio
in any claim, proceeding or litigation
regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not
make or permit any modification, waiver or
amendment of any term of any Mortgage
Loan, except as provided pursuant to
Section 3.22. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Servicer,
in its own name or in the name of any
Subservicer or the Depositor and the
Trustee, is hereby authorized and empowered
by the Depositor and the Trustee, when such
Servicer or any Subservicer, as the
case may be, believes it appropriate in its
reasonable judgment, to execute and
deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Certificateholders or any
of them, 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 it services, and with
respect to the related Mortgaged
Properties held for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. The Servicer shall
prepare and deliver to the Depositor and/or
the Trustee such documents requiring
execution and delivery by any or all of
them as are necessary or appropriate to
enable the Servicer to service and
administer the Mortgage Loans it services to
the extent that the Servicer is not
permitted to execute and deliver such
documents pursuant to the preceding
sentence. Upon receipt of such documents,
the Depositor and/or the Trustee, upon the
direction of the Servicer, shall
promptly execute such documents and deliver
them to the Servicer.
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 payment of taxes
and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties relating to the Mortgage Loans
it services, which Servicing Advances
shall be reimbursable in the first instance
from related collections from the
Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.10, and
further as provided in Section 3.13.
The costs incurred by the Servicer, if any,
in effecting the timely payments of
taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged
Properties and related insurance premiums
shall not, for the purpose of calculating
monthly distributions to the
Certificateholders, be added to the Stated
Principal Balances of the related
Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding that the
terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.
The relationship of the Servicer (and of any successor to the
Servicer as servicer under this Agreement)
to the Trustee under this Agreement
is intended by the parties to be that of an
independent contractor and not that
of a joint venturer, partner or agent.
Section 3.02 Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of
the
Servicer.
(a) The Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any
Mortgage
Loan it services by a Subservicer pursuant
to a Subservicing Agreement;
provided, however, that such subservicing
arrangement and the terms of the
related Subservicing Agreement must provide
for the servicing of such Mortgage
Loan in a manner consistent with the
servicing arrangements contemplated
hereunder. Notwithstanding the provisions
of any Subservicing Agreement, any of
the provisions of this Agreement relating
to agreements or arrangements between
the Servicer and a Subservicer or reference
to actions taken through a
Subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer
shall remain obligated and liable to the
Depositor, the Trustee and the
Certificateholders for the servicing and
administration of the Mortgage Loans it
services in accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement without
diminution of such obligation or liability
by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements
or arrangements or by virtue of
indemnification from the Subservicer and to
the same extent and under the same
terms and conditions as if the Servicer
alone were servicing and administering
those Mortgage Loans. All actions of any
Subservicer performed pursuant to the
related Subservicing Agreement shall be
performed as agent of the Servicer with
the same force and effect as if performed
directly by the Servicer.
(b) For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed
to
have received any collections, recoveries
or payments with respect to the
Mortgage Loans it services that are
received by a Subservicer regardless of
whether such payments are remitted by the
Subservicer to the Servicer.
(c) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer,
for
the benefit of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, shall use its best
reasonable efforts to enforce the
obligations of each Subservicer engaged by the
Servicer under the related Subservicing
Agreement, to the extent that the
non-performance of any such obligation
would have a material and adverse effect
on a Mortgage Loan. Such enforcement,
including, without limitation, the legal
prosecution of claims, termination of
Subservicing Agreement 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 Loan or
(ii) from a specific recovery of costs,
expenses or attorneys fees against the
party against whom such enforcement is
directed.
(d) Any Subservicing Agreement entered into by the Servicer
shall
provide that it may be assumed or
terminated by the Trustee, if the Trustee has
assumed the duties of the Servicer, or any
successor Servicer, at the Trustee's
or successor Servicer's option, as
applicable, without cost or obligation to the
assuming or terminating party or the Trust
Estate, upon the assumption by such
party of the obligations of the Servicer
pursuant to Section 8.05.
Any Subservicing Agreement, and any other transactions or
services
relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a
Subservicer, shall be deemed to be
between the Servicer and such Subservicer
alone, and the Trustee and the
Certificateholders shall not be deemed
parties thereto and shall have no claims
or rights of action against, rights,
obligations, duties or liabilities to or
with respect to the Subservicer or its
officers, directors or employees, except
as set forth in Section 3.01.
Section 3.03 Fidelity Bond; Errors and Omissions Insurance. The
Servicer shall maintain, at its own
expense, a blanket fidelity bond and an
errors and omissions insurance policy, with
broad coverage on all officers,
employees or other persons acting in any
capacity requiring such persons to
handle funds, money, documents or papers
relating to the Mortgage Loans it
services. These policies must insure the
Servicer against losses resulting from
dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by
the Servicer's personnel, any
employees of outside firms that provide
data processing services for the
Servicer, and temporary contract employees
or student interns. Such fidelity
bond shall also protect and insure the
Servicer against losses in connection
with the release or satisfaction of a
Mortgage Loan without having obtained
payment in full of the indebtedness secured
thereby. No provision of this
Section 3.03 requiring such fidelity bond
and errors and omissions insurance
shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from
its duties and obligations as set
forth in this Agreement. The minimum
coverage under any such bond and insurance
policy shall be at least equal to the
corresponding amounts required by FNMA in
the FNMA Servicing Guide or by FHLMC in the
FHLMC Sellers' & Servicers' Guide,
as amended or restated from time to time,
or in an amount as may be permitted to
the Servicer by express waiver of FNMA or
FHLMC. In the event that any such
policy or bond ceases to be in effect, the
Servicer shall obtain a comparable
replacement policy or bond from an insurer
or issuer, meeting the requirements
set forth above as of the date of such
replacement.
Section 3.04 Access to Certain Documentation.
The Servicer shall provide to the OCC, the OTS, the FDIC and to
comparable regulatory authorities
supervising Holders of Certificates and the
examiners and supervisory agents of the
OCC, the OTS, the FDIC and such other
authorities, access to the documentation
required by applicable regulations of
the OCC, the OTS, the FDIC and such other
authorities with respect to the
Mortgage Loans. Such access shall be
afforded without charge, but only upon
reasonable and prior written request and
during normal business hours at the
offices designated by the Servicer. Nothing
in this Section 3.04 shall limit the
obligation of the Servicer to observe any
applicable law and the failure of the
Servicer to provide access as provided in
this Section 3.04 as a result of such
obligation shall not constitute a breach of
this Section 3.04.
Section 3.05 Maintenance of Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy;
Claims.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan with a Loan-to-Value Ratio
in
excess of 80% or such other Loan-to-Value
Ratio as may be required by law, the
Servicer shall, without any cost to the
Trust Estate, maintain or cause the
Mortgagor to maintain in full force and
effect a Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policy insuring that portion of the
Mortgage Loan in excess of a percentage in
conformity with FNMA requirements. The
Servicer shall pay or shall cause the
Mortgagor to pay the premium thereon on a
timely basis, at least until the
Loan-to-Value Ratio of such Mortgage Loan
is reduced to 80% or such other
Loan-to-Value Ratio as may be required by
law. If such Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy is terminated, the
Servicer shall obtain from another insurer a
comparable replacement policy, with a total
coverage equal to the remaining
coverage of such terminated Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy. If the insurer
shall cease to be an insurer acceptable to
FNMA, the Servicer shall notify the
Trustee in writing, it being understood
that the Servicer shall not have any
responsibility or liability for any failure
to recover under the Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy for such reason.
If the Servicer determines that
recoveries under the Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy are jeopardized by the
financial condition of the insurer, the
Servicer shall obtain from another
insurer which meets the requirements of
this Section 3.05 a replacement
insurance policy. The Servicer shall not
take any action that would result in
noncoverage under any applicable Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss
that, but for the actions of the Servicer,
would have been covered thereunder.
In connection with any assumption or
substitution agreement entered into or to
be entered into pursuant to Section 3.14,
the Servicer shall promptly notify the
insurer under the Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy, if any, of such assumption
or substitution of liability in accordance
with the terms of such Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy and shall take
all actions which may be required by
such insurer as a condition to the
continuation of coverage under such Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy. If such Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy is
terminated as a result of such assumption
or substitution of liability, the
Servicer shall obtain a replacement Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy as
provided above.
In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer
agrees
to prepare and present, on behalf of
itself, the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, claims to the insurer
under any Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policy in a timely fashion in accordance
with the terms of such Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy and, in this regard, to
take such action as shall be necessary
to permit recovery under any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy respecting a
defaulted Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to
Section 3.10(a), any amounts collected by
the Servicer under any Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy shall be deposited in
the related Escrow Account, subject to
withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.10(b).
The Servicer will comply with all provisions of applicable state
and
federal law relating to the cancellation
of, or collection of premiums with
respect to, each Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policy, including, but not limited
to, the provisions of the Homeowners
Protection Act of 1998, and all regulations
promulgated thereunder, as amended from
time to time.
Section 3.06 Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect
of
the Servicer.
The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the
obligations
of the Servicer hereunder and may, but is
not obligated to, perform, or cause a
designee to perform, any defaulted
obligation of the Servicer hereunder and in
connection with any such defaulted
obligation to exercise the rights of the
Servicer hereunder; provided that the
Servicer shall not be relieved of any of
its obligations hereunder by virtue of such
performance by the Depositor or its
designee. Neither the Trustee nor the
Depositor shall have any responsibility or
liability for any action or failure to act
by the Servicer nor shall the Trustee
or the Depositor be obligated to supervise
the performance of the Servicer (or
any Subservicer) hereunder or
otherwise.
Section 3.07 Trustee to Act as Servicer.
If the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer
hereunder (including by reason of an Event
of Default), the Trustee shall within
90 days of such time, assume, if it so
elects, or shall appoint a successor
Servicer to assume, all of the rights and
obligations of the Servicer hereunder
arising thereafter (except that the Trustee
shall not be (a) liable for losses
of the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.13 or
any acts or omissions of such
predecessor Servicer hereunder, (b)
obligated to make Advances if it is
prohibited from doing so by applicable law
or (c) deemed to have made any
representations and warranties of the
Servicer hereunder). Any such assumption
shall be subject to Sections 7.02 and 8.05.
If the Servicer shall for any reason
no longer be the Servicer (including by
reason of any Event of Default), the
Trustee or the successor Servicer may elect
to succeed to any rights and
obligations of the Servicer under each
Subservicing Agreement or may terminate
each Subservicing Agreement. If it has
elected to assume the Subservicing
Agreement, the Trustee or the successor
Servicer shall be deemed to have assumed
all of the Servicer's interest therein and
to have replaced the Servicer as a
party to any Subservicing Agreement entered
into by the Servicer as contemplated
by Section 3.02 to the same extent as if
the Subservicing Agreement had been
assigned to the assuming party except that
the Servicer shall not be relieved of
any liability or obligations under any such
Subservicing Agreement.
The Servicer that is no longer the Servicer hereunder shall,
upon
request of the Trustee, but at the expense
of the predecessor Servicer, deliver
to the assuming party all documents and
records relating to each Subservicing
Agreement or substitute servicing agreement
and the Mortgage Loans then being
serviced thereunder and an accounting of
amounts collected or held by it and
otherwise use its best efforts to effect
the orderly and efficient transfer of
such Subservicing Agreement to the assuming
party. The Trustee shall be entitled
to be reimbursed from the predecessor
Servicer (or the Trust if the predecessor
Servicer is unable to fulfill its
obligations hereunder) for all Servicing
Transfer Costs.
Section 3.08 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.
Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and
interest
on all Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the
Servicer will proceed diligently, in
accordance with this Agreement, to collect
all payments due under each of the
Mortgage Loans it services when the same
shall become due and payable. Further,
the Servicer will in accordance with all
applicable law and Customary Servicing
Procedures ascertain and estimate taxes,
assessments, fire and hazard insurance
premiums, mortgage insurance premiums and
all other charges with respect to the
Mortgage Loans it services that, as
provided in any Mortgage, will become due
and payable to the end that the
installments payable by the Mortgagors will be
sufficient to pay such charges as and when
they become due and payable.
Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer
may in its discretion (i) waive any
late payment charge or any Prepayment
Premium or penalty interest in connection
with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan it
services and (ii) extend the due dates
for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a
period not greater than 120 days;
provided, however, that the Servicer cannot
extend the maturity of any such
Mortgage Loan past the date on which the
final payment is due on the latest
maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off
Date. In the event of any such
arrangement, the Servicer shall make
Periodic Advances on the related Mortgage
Loan in accordance with the provisions of
Section 3.21 during the scheduled
period in accordance with the amortization
schedule of such Mortgage Loan
without modification thereof by reason of
such arrangements. The Servicer shall
not be required to institute or join in
litigation with respect to collection of
any payment (whether under a Mortgage,
Mortgage Note or otherwise or against any
public or governmental authority with
respect to a taking or condemnation) if it
reasonably believes that enforcing the
provision of the Mortgage or other
instrument pursuant to which such payment
is required is prohibited by
applicable law.
Section 3.09 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Servicer
Custodial Account, Distribution Account and
Reserve Account. (a) GreenPoint
shall establish and maintain a Servicer
Custodial Account. GreenPoint shall
deposit or cause to be deposited into the
Servicer Custodial Account, all on a
daily basis within one Business Day of
receipt, except as otherwise specifically
provided herein, the following payments and
collections remitted by Subservicers
or received by the Servicer in respect of
the Mortgage Loans subsequent to the
Cut-off Date (other than in respect of
principal and interest due on the
Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off
Date) and the following amounts required
to be deposited hereunder with respect to
the Mortgage Loans:
(i) all payments on account of principal of the Mortgage Loans,
including
Principal Prepayments;
(ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans,
net
of the
Servicing Fee;
(iii) (A) all Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds,
other
than
Insurance Proceeds to be (1) applied to the restoration or repair
of
the
Mortgaged Property, (2) released to the Mortgagor in accordance
with
Customary
Servicing Procedures or (3) deposited to an Escrow Account
pursuant
to Section 3.10(a) and other than any Excess Proceeds and (B)
any
Insurance
Proceeds released from an Escrow Account pursuant to Section
3.10(b)(iv);
(iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant
to
Section
3.09(c) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments
with
respect to the Servicer Custodial Account;
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer pursuant
to
Section
3.15 or any Prepayment Premiums required to be remitted by the
Servicer;
(vi) all Repurchase Prices, all Substitution Adjustment Amounts
and
all
Reimbursement Amounts to the extent received by the Servicer;
(vii) Periodic Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to
Section
3.21 and
any Compensating Interest;
(viii) any Recovery; and
(ix) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.
The foregoing requirements for deposits to the Servicer
Custodial
Account by the Servicer shall be exclusive,
it being understood and agreed that,
without limiting the generality of the
foregoing, any Ancillary Income need not
be deposited by the Servicer. If the
Servicer shall deposit in the Servicer
Custodial Account any amount not required
to be deposited, it may at any time
withdraw or direct the institution
maintaining the Servicer Custodial Account to
withdraw such amount from the Servicer
Custodial Account, any provision herein
to the contrary notwithstanding. The
Servicer Custodial Account may contain
funds that belong to one or more trust
funds created for mortgage pass-through
certificates of other series and may
contain other funds respecting payments on
mortgage loans belonging to the Servicer or
serviced by the Servicer on behalf
of others; provided that such commingling
of funds with respect to the Servicer
shall not be permitted at any time during
which S&P's senior short-term
unsecured debt rating of the Servicer falls
below "A-2." Notwithstanding such
commingling of funds, the Servicer shall
keep records that accurately reflect
the funds on deposit in the Servicer
Custodial Account that have been identified
by it as being attributable to the Mortgage
Loans it services. The Servicer
shall maintain adequate records with
respect to all withdrawals made pursuant to
this Section 3.09. All funds required to be
deposited in the Servicer Custodial
Account shall be held in trust for the
Certificateholders until withdrawn in
accordance with Section 3.12.
(b) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Distribution
Account, which shall be deemed to consist
of three sub-accounts. The Trustee shall,
promptly upon receipt, deposit in the
Distribution Account and retain therein the
following:
(i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Servicer to the
Trustee
pursuant
to Section 3.12(a)(viii);
(ii) any amount paid by the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.09(c)
in
connection
with any losses on Permitted Investments with respect to the
Distribution Account; and
(iii) any other
amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be
deposited
in the Distribution Account.
If the Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be
remitted,
it may at any time direct the Trustee to
withdraw such amount from the
Distribution Account, any provision herein
to the contrary notwithstanding. Such
direction may be accomplished by delivering
an Officer's Certificate to the
Trustee which describes the amounts
deposited in error in the Distribution
Account. All funds required to be deposited
in the Distribution Account shall be
held by the Trustee in trust for the
Certificateholders until disbursed in
accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn
in accordance with Section 3.12. In
no event shall the Trustee incur liability
for withdrawals from the Distribution
Account at the direction of the
Servicer.
(c) Each institution at which the Servicer Custodial Account or
the
Distribution Account is maintained shall
invest the funds therein as directed in
writing by the Servicer (in the case of the
Servicer Custodial Account) or the
Trustee (in the case of the Distribution
Account) in Permitted Investments,
which shall mature not later than (i) in
the case of the Servicer Custodial
Account, the Business Day next preceding
the related Remittance Date (except
that if such Permitted Investment is an
obligation of the institution that
maintains such account, then such Permitted
Investment shall mature not later
than such Remittance Date) and (ii) in the
case of the Distribution Account, the
Business Day next preceding the
Distribution Date (except that if such Permitted
Investment is an obligation of the
institution that maintains such account, then
such Permitted Investment shall mature not
later than such Distribution Date)
and, in each case, shall not be sold or
disposed of prior to its maturity. All
such Permitted Investments shall be made in
the name of the Trustee, for the
benefit of the Certificateholders. All
Servicer Custodial Account Reinvestment
Income shall be for the benefit of the
Servicer as part of its Servicing
Compensation and shall be retained by it
monthly as provided herein. All income
or gain (net of any losses) realized from
any such investment of funds on
deposit in the Distribution Account shall
be for the benefit of the Trustee as
compensation for its duties hereunder and
shall be retained by it monthly as
provided herein. The amount of any losses
realized in the Servicer Custodial
Account or the Distribution Account
incurred in any such account in respect of
any such investments shall promptly be
deposited by the Servicer in the Servicer
Custodial Account or by the Trustee in the
Distribution Account, as applicable.
(d) The Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee and the NIMS
Insurer of any proposed change of the
location of the Servicer Custodial Account
not later than 30 days and not more than 45
days prior to any change thereof.
The Trustee shall give notice to the
Servicer, each Rating Agency, the NIMS
Insurer and the Depositor of any proposed
change of the location of the
Distribution Account not later than 30 days
after and not more than 45 days
prior to any change thereof. The creation
of the Servicer Custodial Account and
the Distribution Account shall be evidenced
by a certification substantially in
the form of Exhibit F hereto.
(e) The Trustee shall designate each of Sub-Account 1, Sub-Account
2
and the Upper-Tier Certificate Sub-Account
as a sub-account of the Distribution
Account. On each Distribution Date, the
Trustee shall, from funds available on
deposit in the Distribution Account (and
deemed on deposit in Sub-Account 1 and
Sub-Account 2, as applicable), be deemed to
deposit into the Upper-Tier
Sub-Account, the Lower-Tier Distribution
Amount.
(f) (i) The
Trustee shall establish and maintain the Reserve
Account, which account shall be held in
trust for the benefit of the Holders of
the Offered Certificates. The Trustee shall
deposit in the Reserve Account on
the date received by it, any Yield
Maintenance Agreement Payments received from
the Yield Maintenance Agreement Provider
for the related Distribution Date.
Funds on deposit in the Reserve Account
shall remain uninvested. On each
Distribution Date, the Trustee shall
withdraw from the Reserve Account any Yield
Maintenance Agreement Payments and apply
them in the following order of
priority:
(A) to the Offered Certificates, any remaining unpaid Cap
Carryover Amounts for such classes for such Distribution Date
(after
distributions pursuant to Section 5.02(c)(xix) hereof,
sequentially,
as follows:
(i) first, concurrently, to the Class A-1 and Class A-2
Certificates, pro rata (based on the Cap Carryover Amount for
each such Class);
(ii) second, concurrently, to the Class A-3A and Class
A-3B Components, pro rata (based on the Cap Carryover Amount
for each such Component); and
(iii) third, sequentially, to the Class M-1
Certificates, the Class M-2 Certificates, the Class B-1
Certificates, the Class B-2 Certificates and the Class B-3
Certificates, in that order; and
(B) to the Class CE Certificates, any remaining amounts on
deposit in the Reserve Account.
(ii) The Trustee shall account for the Reserve Account as an
asset
of the
Grantor Trust and not an asset of either REMIC created pursuant
to
this
Agreement. The beneficial owner of the Reserve Account is the
Class
CE
Certificateholder. For all federal tax purposes, amounts
transferred or
reimbursed
by the Upper-Tier REMIC to the Reserve Account shall be treated
as
distributions by the Trustee to the Class CE Certificateholder.
(iii) Any Cap Carryover Amounts paid by the Trustee pursuant to
this
Section
3.09(f) to the Offered Certificates shall be accounted for by
the
Trustee as
amounts paid first to the Class CE Certificates and then to the
Offered
Certificates from the Grantor Trust. In addition, the Trustee
shall
account for the Offered Certificates' rights to receive payments
of
Cap
Carryover Amounts as rights in limited recourse interest rate
cap
contracts
written by the Class CE Certificates in favor of the Offered
Certificates.
(g) For federal tax return and information reporting, the right
of
the Holders of the Offered Certificates to
receive payments under the Yield
Maintenance Agreements in respect of any
related Yield Maintenance Agreement
Payments shall be assigned a value of
zero.
(h) Any Prepayment Premiums deposited pursuant to Section
3.09(a)(v)
shall not be assets of either REMIC created
hereunder, but shall be considered
assets of the Grantor Trust held by the
Trustee for the benefit of the Class P
Certificateholders.
Section 3.10 Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar
Items;
Escrow Accounts.
(a) To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note and not
violative of current law, the Servicer
shall segregate and hold all funds
collected and received pursuant to each
Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow
Payments in trust separate and apart from
any of its own funds and general
assets and for such purpose shall establish
and maintain one or more escrow
accounts (collectively, the "Escrow
Account"), titled "GreenPoint, in trust for
registered holders of Banc of America
Funding Corporation, Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Series 2005-C and various
Mortgagors." The Escrow Account shall be
established with a commercial bank, a
savings bank or a savings and loan
association that meets the guidelines set
forth by FNMA or FHLMC as an eligible
institution for escrow accounts and which
is a member of the Automated Clearing
House. In any case, the Escrow Account
shall be insured by the FDIC to the
fullest extent permitted by law. The
Servicer shall deposit in the appropriate
Escrow Account on a daily basis, and retain
therein: (i) all Escrow Payments
collected on account of the Mortgage Loans,
(ii) all amounts representing
proceeds of any hazard insurance policy
which are to be applied to the
restoration or repair of any related
Mortgaged Property and (iii) all amounts
representing proceeds of any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policy. Nothing herein
shall require the Servicer to compel a
Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account
in violation of applicable law.
(b) Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts
may
be made by the Servicer only (i) to effect
timely payment of taxes, assessments,
mortgage insurance premiums, fire and
hazard insurance premiums, condominium or
PUD association dues, or comparable items
constituting Escrow Payments for the
related Mortgage, (ii) to reimburse the
Servicer out of related Escrow Payments
made with respect to a Mortgage Loan for
any Servicing Advance made by the
Servicer pursuant to Section 3.10(c) with
respect to such Mortgage Loan, (iii)
to refund to any Mortgagor any sums
determined to be overages, (iv) for transfer
to the Servicer Custodial Account upon
default of a Mortgagor or in accordance
with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan
and if permitted by applicable law,
(v) for application to restore or repair
the Mortgaged Property, (vi) to pay to
the Mortgagor, to the extent required by
law, any interest paid on the funds
deposited in the Escrow Account, (vii) to
pay to itself any interest earned on
funds deposited in the Escrow Account (and
not required to be paid to the
Mortgagor), (viii) to the extent permitted
under the terms of the related
Mortgage Note and applicable law, to pay
late fees with respect to any Monthly
Payment which is received after the
applicable grace period, (ix) to withdraw
suspense payments that are deposited into
the Escrow Account, (x) to withdraw
any amounts inadvertently deposited in the
Escrow Account or (xi) to clear and
terminate the Escrow Account upon the
termination of this Agreement in
accordance with Section 10.01. Any Escrow
Account shall not be a part of the
Trust Estate.
(c) With respect to each Mortgage Loan it services, the
Servicer
shall maintain accurate records reflecting
the status of taxes, assessments and
other charges which are or may become a
lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the
status of Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy
premiums and fire and hazard
insurance coverage. The Servicer shall
obtain, from time to time, all bills for
the payment of such charges (including
renewal premiums) and shall effect
payment thereof prior to the applicable
penalty or termination date and at a
time appropriate for securing maximum
discounts allowable, employing for such
purpose deposits of the Mortgagor in the
Escrow Account, if any, which shall
have been estimated and accumulated by the
Servicer in amounts sufficient for
such purposes, as allowed under the terms
of the Mortgage. To the extent that a
Mortgage does not provide for Escrow
Payments, the Servicer shall determine that
any such payments are made by the
Mortgagor. The Servicer assumes full
responsibility for the timely payment of
all such bills and shall effect timely
payments of all such bills irrespective of
each Mortgagor's faithful performance
in the payment of same or the making of the
Escrow Payments. The Servicer shall
advance any such payments that are not
timely paid, but the Servicer shall be
required so to advance only to the extent
that such Servicing Advances, in the
good faith judgment of the Servicer, will
be recoverable by the Servicer out of
Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds or
otherwise.
Section 3.11 Access of Trustee and NIMS Insurer to Certain
Documentation and Information Regarding the
Mortgage Loans.
The Servicer shall
afford the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer
reasonable access to all records and
documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans
and all accounts, insurance information and
other matters relating to this
Agreement, such access being afforded
without charge, but only upon reasonable
request and during normal business hours at
the office designated by the
Servicer.
Section 3.12 Permitted Withdrawals from the Servicer Custodial
Account and the Distribution Account.
(a) The Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from
the
Servicer Custodial Account, for the
following purposes:
(i) to pay itself (to the extent not previously retained), the
Servicing
Compensation to which it is entitled pursuant to Section 3.18;
(ii) to reimburse itself or the Trustee for unreimbursed
Advances
made by
it, such right of reimbursement pursuant to this clause (ii)
being
limited
first to amounts received on the Mortgage Loans in the related
Loan
Subgroup as the Mortgage Loans in respect of which any such
Advance
was made
and then limited to amounts received on all the Mortgage Loans;
(iii) to reimburse itself for any Nonrecoverable Advance
previously
made, such
right of reimbursement pursuant to this clause (iii) being
limited
first to amounts received on the Mortgage Loans in the same
Loan
Subgroup
as the Mortgage Loans in respect of which such Nonrecoverable
Advance
was made and then limited to amounts received on all the
Mortgage
Loans;
(iv) to reimburse itself for Insured Expenses from the related
Insurance
Proceeds;
(v) to pay to the purchaser, with respect to each Mortgage Loan
or
REO
Property that has been purchased pursuant to Section 2.02, 2.04
or
3.15(b),
all amounts received thereon after the date of such purchase;
(vi) to reimburse itself or the Depositor for expenses incurred
by
any of
them and reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement, including but
not
limited
to, Section 3.02 and Section 7.03;
(vii) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Servicer
Custodial
Account
and not required to be deposited therein;
(viii) on or prior to the Remittance Date, to withdraw an
amount
equal to
the Interest Remittance Amount, the Principal Remittance Amount
and any
Monthly Excess Cashflow Amount for such Distribution Date, to
the
extent on
deposit, and remit such amount in immediately available funds
to
the
Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account; and
(ix) to clear and terminate the Servicer Custodial Account upon
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.
The Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a
Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for
the purpose of justifying any
withdrawal from the Servicer Custodial
Account pursuant to clauses (i), (ii),
(iv) and (v). The Servicer shall keep and
maintain such separate accounting for
each Mortgage Loan. Prior to making any
withdrawal from the Servicer Custodial
Account pursuant to clause (iii), the
Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee an
Officer's Certificate of a Servicing
Officer indicating the amount of any
previous Advance determined by the Servicer
to be a Nonrecoverable Advance and
identifying the related Mortgage Loan(s)
and their respective portions of such
Nonrecoverable Advance.
In connection with any failure by the Servicer to make any
remittance required to be made by the
Servicer to the Distribution Account on
the day and by the time such remittance is
required to be made under this
Agreement (without giving effect to any
grace or cure period), the Servicer
shall pay the Trustee for the account of
the Trustee interest at the rate
published in The Wall Street Journal as the
"Prime Rate" on any amount not
timely remitted from and including the day
such remittance was required to be
made to, but not including, the day on
which such remittance was actually made.
(b)The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Distribution
Account
for distributions to Certificateholders in
the manner specified in this
Agreement. In addition, the Trustee may
from time to time make withdrawals from
the Distribution Account for the following
purposes:
(i) to pay to itself the Trustee Fee;
(ii) to pay to itself as additional compensation, earnings on
or
investment
income with respect to funds in the Distribution Account and
any other
amounts due to the Trustee (other than the Trustee Fee) under
this
Agreement for the related Distribution Date;
(iii) to withdraw and return to the Servicer any amount deposited
in
the
Distribution Account and not required to be deposited therein;
and
(iv) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account upon
termination of the Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.
(c) On each Distribution Date, funds on deposit in the
Distribution
Account and deemed to be on deposit in the
Upper-Tier Certificate Sub-Account
shall be used to make payments on the
Offered Certificates, the Class CE
Certificates and the Class R Certificate in
respect of the Class UR Interest as
provided in Section 5.02. The Distribution
Account shall be cleared and
terminated upon termination of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.
Section 3.13 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Other
Insurance.
The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage
Loan,
fire and hazard insurance with extended
coverage customary in the area where the
Mortgaged Property is located in an amount
which is at least equal to the lesser
of (a) the full insurable value of the
Mortgaged Property or (b) the greater of
(i) the outstanding principal balance owing
on the Mortgage Loan and (ii) an
amount such that the proceeds of such
insurance shall be sufficient to avoid the
application to the Mortgagor or loss payee
of any coinsurance clause under the
policy. If the Mortgaged Property is in an
area identified in the Federal
Register by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency as having special flood
hazards (and such flood insurance has been
made available) the Servicer will
cause to be maintained a flood insurance
policy meeting the requirements of the
current guidelines of the Federal Insurance
Administration and the requirements
of FNMA or FHLMC. The Servicer shall also
maintain on REO Property, fire and
hazard insurance with extended coverage in
an amount which is at least equal to
the maximum insurable value of the
improvements which are a part of such
property, liability insurance and, to the
extent required, flood insurance in an
amount required above. Any amounts
collected by the Servicer under any such
policies (other than amounts to be
deposited in an Escrow Account and applied to
the restoration or repair of the property
subject to the related Mortgage or
property acquired in liquidation of the
Mortgage Loan, or to be released to the
Mortgagor in accordance with Customary
Servicing Procedures) shall be deposited
in the Servicer Custodial Account, subject
to withdrawal pursuant to Section
3.12(a). It is understood and agreed that
no earthquake or other additional
insurance need be required by the Servicer
of any Mortgagor or maintained on REO
Property, other than pursuant to such
applicable laws and regulations as shall
at any time be in force and as shall
require such additional insurance. All
policies required hereunder shall be
endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses
with loss payable to the Servicer, and
shall provide for at least 30 days prior
written notice of any cancellation,
reduction in amount or material change in
coverage to the Servicer.
The hazard insurance policies for each Mortgage Loan secured by
a
unit in a condominium development or
planned unit development shall be
maintained with respect to such Mortgage
Loan and the related development in a
manner which is consistent with FNMA
requirements.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer may maintain a
blanket
policy insuring against hazard losses on
all of the Mortgaged Properties
relating to the Mortgage Loans in lieu of
maintaining the required hazard
insurance policies for each Mortgage Loan
and may maintain a blanket policy
insuring against special flood hazards in
lieu of maintaining any required flood
insurance. Any such blanket policies shall
(A) be consistent with prudent
industry standards, (B) name the Servicer
as loss payee, (C) provide coverage in
an amount equal to the aggregate unpaid
principal balance on the related
Mortgage Loans without co-insurance, and
(D) otherwise comply with the
requirements of this Section 3.13. Any such
blanket policy may contain a
deductible clause; provided that if any
Mortgaged Property is not covered by a
separate policy otherwise complying with
this Section 3.13 and a loss occurs
with respect to such Mortgaged Property
which loss would have been covered by
such a policy, the Servicer shall deposit
in the Servicer Custodial Account the
difference, if any, between the amount that
would have been payable under a
separate policy complying with this Section
3.13 and the amount paid under such
blanket policy.
Section 3.14 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements.
(a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section 3.14, when any
Mortgaged Property subject to a Mortgage
has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the
Servicer shall use reasonable efforts, to
the extent that it has actual
knowledge of such conveyance, to enforce
any due-on-sale clause contained in any
Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to the extent
permitted under applicable law and
governmental regulations, but only to the
extent that such enforcement will not
adversely affect or jeopardize coverage
under any Required Insurance Policy.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer
is not required to exercise such
rights with respect to a Mortgage Loan if
the Person to whom the related
Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is
proposed to be conveyed satisfies the
terms and conditions contained in the
Mortgage Note and Mortgage related thereto
and the consent of the mortgagee under such
Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not
otherwise required under such Mortgage Note
or Mortgage as a condition to such
transfer. If (i) the Servicer is prohibited
by law from enforcing any such
due-on-sale clause, (ii) coverage under any
Required Insurance Policy would be
adversely affected, (iii) the Mortgage Note
does not include a due-on-sale
clause or (iv) nonenforcement is otherwise
permitted hereunder, the Servicer is
authorized, subject to Section 3.14(b), to
take or enter into an assumption and
modification agreement from or with the
Person to whom such Mortgaged Property
has been or is about to be conveyed,
pursuant to which such Person becomes
liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless
prohibited by applicable state law,
the Mortgagor remains liable thereon;
provided that the Mortgage Loan shall
continue to be covered (if so covered
before the Servicer enters such agreement)
by the applicable Required Insurance
Policies. The Servicer, subject to Section
3.14(b), is also authorized with the prior
approval of the insurers under any
Required Insurance Policies 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
Mortgagor and becomes liable under
the Mortgage Note. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Servicer shall not be
deemed to be in default under this Section
3.14 by reason
