            THIS POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated January 27, 2005 is

hereby executed by and among BANC OF AMERICA FUNDING CORPORATION, as depositor

(together with its permitted successors and assigns, the "Depositor"), WELLS

FARGO BANK, N.A., as master servicer (in such capacity, together with its

permitted successors and assigns, the "Master Servicer") and as securities

administrator (in such capacity, together with its permitted successors and

assigns, the "Securities Administrator") and WACHOVIA BANK, NATIONAL

ASSOCIATION, 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 Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee

agree as follows:

 

                               PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

 

            The Trust Estate for federal income tax purposes will be treated as

six real estate mortgage investment conduits (the "Upper-Tier REMIC," the

"Middle-Tier REMIC," the "Lower-Tier REMIC," the "Group 4 Pooling REMIC," the

"Group 5 Upper-Tier REMIC" and the "Group 5 Lower-Tier REMIC," respectively, and

each a "REMIC"). The Certificates (other than the Class 1-A-R and the Group 5

Certificates) shall constitute "regular interests" in the Upper-Tier REMIC. The

Offered Group 5 Certificates (other than the Class 5-A-3 Certificates) and each

Component (exclusive of the right of such Certificates or Components to receive

Cap Carryover Amounts) and the Class 5-CE Certificates shall constitute "regular

interests" in the Group 5 Upper-Tier REMIC. The Certificates (other than the

Class 1-A-R and Class 5-P Certificates) are the "Regular Certificates." The

Uncertificated Middle-Tier Interests shall constitute the "regular interests" in

the Middle-Tier REMIC. The Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests shall constitute

the "regular interests" in the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Uncertificated Group 5

Lower-Tier Interests shall constitute the "regular interests" in the Group 5

Lower-Tier REMIC. The Class 1-LR Interest shall be the "residual interest" in

the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Class 1-MR Interest shall be the "residual interest"

in the Middle-Tier REMIC. The Class 1-UR Interest shall be the "residual

interest" in the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class 4-PR Interest shall be the

"residual interest" in the Group 4 Pooling REMIC. The Class 5-LR Interest shall

be the "residual interest" in the Group 5 Lower-Tier REMIC. The Class 5-UR

Interest shall be the "residual interest" in the Group 5 Upper-Tier REMIC. The

portion of the Trust Estate consisting of the Reserve Account, the Yield

Maintenance Agreements, the Class 5-P Certificates, the rights of the Offered

Group 5 Certificates to receive Cap Carryover Amounts and the obligation of the

Class 5-CE Certificates to pay Cap Carryover Amounts shall not be assets of any

REMIC created hereunder, but rather shall be assets of the Grantor Trust. The

assets of the Grantor Trust, the Certificates, the Uncertificated Middle-Tier

Interests, the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests, the Uncertificated Group 4

Pooling REMIC Interests and the Uncertificated Group 5 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.

                          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), 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 Agreements, and

the Depositor's rights under the BANA 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. It is

agreed and understood by the parties hereto that it is not intended that any

mortgage loan be included in the Trust that is a "High-Cost Home Loan" as

defined in any of (i) the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27,

2003, (ii) the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act effective January 1, 2004,

(iii) the Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act effective November 7,

2004 or (iv) the Indiana Home Loan Practices Act, effective January 1, 2005.

 

            (b) In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor

has delivered or caused to be delivered to 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 Wachovia Bank,

      National Association, as trustee for holders of Banc of America Funding

      Corporation Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-A, 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 and other than with respect to the

      Mortgage Loans purchased by the Seller under the Wells Fargo Servicing

      Agreement, 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 applicable 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 "Wachovia Bank, National Association,

      as trustee for the holders of Banc of America Funding Corporation Mortgage

      Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2005-A" (which may be included in a

      blanket assignment or assignments), together with, except as provided

      below and other than with respect to the Mortgage Loans purchased by the

      Seller under the Wells Fargo Servicing Agreement, originals of all interim

      recorded assignments of such mortgage or a copy of such interim assignment

      certified by the applicable 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

      Master Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the applicable Servicer

      to 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) other than with respect to the Mortgage Loans purchased by the

      Seller under the Wells Fargo Servicing Agreement, 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 (other than with

      respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by Co-op Shares purchased by the

      Seller under the Wells Fargo Servicing Agreement), 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 a copy of such Assignment of Mortgage in

blank rather than in the name of the Trustee and has caused the applicable

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 Securities

Administrator and 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 either the related 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 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 (1) from

time to time 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 applicable 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.

 

            Following a Document Transfer Event, the Depositor shall, with

respect to Mortgage Loans purchased by the Seller under the Wells Fargo

Servicing Agreement, deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Trustee within 60

days copies (which may be in electronic form mutually agreed upon by the

Depositor and the Trustee) of the following additional documents or instruments

to the Mortgage File with respect to each such Mortgage Loan; provided, however,

that originals of such documents or instruments shall be delivered to the

Trustee, if originals are required under the law in which the related Mortgaged

Property is located in order to exercise all remedies available to the Trust

under applicable law following default by the related Mortgagor:

 

            (1) other than if the related Mortgage has been recorded in the name

of MERS or its designee, an original copy of any intervening assignment of

Mortgage showing a complete chain of assignments;

 

            (2) the original or a certified copy of lender's title insurance

policy;

 

            (3) the original Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon, and

the original recorded power of attorney, if the Mortgage was executed pursuant

to a power of attorney, with evidence of recording thereon or, if such Mortgage

or power of attorney has been submitted for recording but has not been returned

from the applicable public recording office, has been lost or is not otherwise

available, a copy of such Mortgage or power of attorney, as the case may be,

certified to be a true and complete copy of the original submitted for

recording; and

 

            (4) 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).

 

            As promptly as practicable subsequent to such transfer and

assignment, the Master Servicer shall (except for any Mortgage which has been

recorded in the name of MERS or its designee) enforce the obligations of the

related Servicer pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement to (I) cause each

Assignment of Mortgage to be in proper form for recording in the appropriate

public office for real property records within the time period required in the

applicable Servicing Agreement 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 related Servicer has not

received the information required to prepare such assignment in recordable form,

such 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

accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement and, no recording of an

Assignment of Mortgage will be required in a state if either (i) the Depositor

furnishes to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator an unqualified Opinion

of Counsel reasonably acceptable to the Trustee and the Securities Administrator

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, will cause the applicable Servicer to deliver to the Master

Servicer for deposit in the Master Servicer Custodial Account the portion of

such payment that is required to be deposited in the Master 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 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 to the

Depositor, the Master Servicer 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 the Mortgage Files in its possession, and shall deliver

to the Depositor, the Master Servicer 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 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

Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or the Securities Administrator

discovers a breach by a Servicer or the Seller of any representation, warranty

or covenant under the Servicing Agreements 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 Master

Servicer, the Seller, such Servicer, 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 applicable Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, 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 Seller or the applicable Servicer, as applicable,

does not deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach in all

material respects during such period, the Trustee shall enforce the applicable

Servicer's or Seller's obligation, as the case may be, under the applicable

Servicing Agreement or the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, as applicable, and

cause the applicable Servicer or Seller, as applicable, to either (a) solely in

the case of the Seller, 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 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 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. The

Trustee shall have no 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 a Servicer or the Seller, the Trustee shall enforce the rights of

the Trust under the Servicing Agreements 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 a 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 or

clauses (f) and (oo) of paragraph 4 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 applicable Servicer does not so reimburse

the Trust. It is understood and agreed that, except for any indemnification

provided in the Servicing Agreements and the payment of any Reimbursement

Amount, the obligation of a 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 remedy

against a 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 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 Master Servicer, 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 as

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 each Servicer with respect to

the applicable Mortgage Loans in the related Servicing Agreement, which have

been assigned to the Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date specified in

such 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 a Servicer under the related 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 applicable

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 applicable

Servicer in the applicable Servicing Agreement, without regard to whether such

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, 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 Master 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 Master Servicer shall deliver the amended

Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Securities Administrator, the NIMS Insurer and the

Trustee. Upon such substitution, each Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be subject

to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the Seller 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

paragraph 4 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. Upon any such substitution

and the deposit to the Master Servicer Custodial Account of any required

Substitution Adjustment Amount (as described in the next paragraph) and receipt

of a Request for Release, the Trustee shall upon receipt of written notice from

the Master Servicer of such deposit, 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 in a

application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments due in the month of

substitution) (the "Substitution Adjustment Amount" for such Loan Group) plus an

amount equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances with respect to such

Defective Mortgage Loans shall be remitted to the Master Servicer Custodial

Account by the Seller on or before the Servicer Remittance Date for the

Distribution Date in the month succeeding the calendar month during which the

review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers

to determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the

represented purpose or that they 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).

            (iv) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending

      financial condition, properties or assets of the Master Servicer, or in

      any material impairment of the right or ability of the Master Servicer to

      carry on its business substantially as now conducted or which would draw

                                   ARTICLE III

 

                       ADMINISTRATION AND MASTER SERVICING

                                OF MORTGAGE LOANS

 

            Section 3.01 Master Servicing of the Mortgage Loans. For and on

behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor

and oversee the obligations of the Servicers to service and administer their

respective Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of the applicable

Servicing Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any and all

things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master

servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the

Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with this Agreement, subject to

the prior sentence, and with customary and usual standards of practice of

prudent mortgage loan master servicers. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall

oversee and consult with each Servicer as necessary from time-to-time to carry

out the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder, shall receive, review and

evaluate all reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer

by each Servicer and shall cause each Servicer to perform and observe the

covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by such

Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall

independently and separately monitor each Servicer's servicing activities with

respect to each related Mortgage Loan, reconcile the results of such monitoring

with such information provided in the previous sentence on a monthly basis and

coordinate corrective adjustments to the Servicers' and Master Servicer's

records, and based on such reconciled and corrected information, prepare the

Master Servicer's Certificate and any other information and statements required

hereunder. The Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan

monitoring with the actual remittances of the Servicers to the Master Servicer

Custodial Account pursuant to the applicable Servicing Agreements.

 

            The relationship of the Master Servicer (and of any successor to the

Master Servicer as master servicer under this Agreement) to the Trustee and the

Securities Administrator 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 Monitoring of Servicers.

 

            (a) The Master Servicer shall be responsible for reporting to the

Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor the compliance by each

Servicer with its duties under the related Servicing Agreement. In the review of

each Servicer's activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an officer's

certificate of the Servicer with regard to such Servicer's compliance with the

terms of its Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its

judgment, determines that a Servicer should be terminated in accordance with its

Servicing Agreement, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to such Servicing

Agreement with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would

constitute grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the

Depositor, the Securities Administrator, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee

thereof and the Master Servicer shall issue such notice or take such other

action as it deems appropriate.

 

            (b) The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee and the

Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer under the

related Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that a Servicer fails to

perform its obligations in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement,

subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and obligations of such

Servicer thereunder and act as successor Servicer of the related Mortgage Loans

under the applicable Servicing Agreement (except, in the case of the termination

of Wells Fargo Bank as Servicer under the Wells Fargo Servicing Agreement, the

Trustee, if it so elects, shall act as successor Servicer, or shall appoint a

successor Servicer, of the related Mortgage Loans under the Wells Fargo

Servicing Agreement) or cause the Trustee to enter in to a new Servicing

Agreement with a successor Servicer selected by the Master Servicer (except, in

the case of the Wells Fargo Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall select the

successor Servicer); provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the

parties hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days)

before the actual servicing functions can be fully transferred to such successor

Servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution

of claims, termination of Servicing Agreements and the pursuit of other

appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent

and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment,

would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Master

Servicer and Trustee, as applicable, 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

whom such enforcement is directed, provided that the Master Servicer and the

Trustee, as applicable, shall not be required to prosecute or defend any legal

action except to the extent that the Master Servicer or the Trustee, as

applicable, shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses

in pursuing such action.

 

            (c) To the extent that any Servicing Transfer Costs are not fully

and timely reimbursed by the terminated Servicer, the Master Servicer or the

Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to reimbursement of such costs and

expenses from the Master Servicer Custodial Account.

 

            (d) The Master Servicer shall require each Servicer to comply with

the remittance requirements and other obligations set forth in the related

Servicing Agreement.

 

            (e) If the Master Servicer acts as Servicer, it will not assume

liability for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any, that

it replaces.

 

            Section 3.03 Fidelity Bond; Errors and Omissions Insurance. The

Master 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 involved in the performance of its obligations as

Master Servicer hereunder. These policies must insure the Master Servicer

against losses resulting from dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by the

Master Servicer's personnel, any employees of outside firms that provide data

processing services for the Master Servicer, and temporary contract employees or

student interns. No provision of this Section 3.03 requiring such fidelity bond

and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Master 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 Master Servicer by express

waiver of FNMA or FHLMC. In the event that any such policy or bond ceases to be

in effect, the Master 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 Master Servicer shall provide and cause each Servicer to provide

in accordance with the related Servicing Agreement 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 Master Servicer and the related Servicer. In

fulfilling such request for access, the Master Servicer shall not be responsible

to determine the sufficiency of any information provided by such Servicer.

Nothing in this Section 3.04 shall limit the obligation of the Master Servicer

and the related Servicer to observe any applicable law and the failure of the

Master Servicer or the related 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.

 

             (a) The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Servicer (to

the extent such action is prohibited under the applicable Servicing Agreement)

to take, any action that would result in noncoverage under any applicable

Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of such

Master Servicer or Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master

Servicer shall use its best reasonable efforts to cause each Servicer (to the

extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to keep in force and

effect (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain

such insurance), primary mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage Loan in

accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing

Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer shall not, and shall not permit

any Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to,

cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy that is in

effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Mortgage Note and is required

to be kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the provisions of this

Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.

 

            (b) The Master Servicer agrees to present, or to cause each Servicer

(to the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to present, on

behalf of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under

any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such

reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary

Mortgage Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans. Pursuant to

Sections 3.08 and 3.09, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or any

Servicer under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the

Master Servicer Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section

3.12.

 

            Section 3.06 Rights of the Depositor, the Securities Administrator

and the Trustee in Respect of the Master Servicer.

 

            The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations

of the Master Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or

cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer

hereunder and in connection with any such defaulted obligation to exercise the

related rights of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master

Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue of

such performance by the Depositor or its designee. None of the Securities

Administrator, the Trustee or the Depositor shall have any responsibility or

liability for any action or failure to act by the Master Servicer and the

Securities Administrator, the Trustee or the Depositor shall not be obligated to

supervise the performance of the Master Servicer hereunder or otherwise.

 

            Section 3.07 Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.

 

            If the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master

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 Master Servicer to assume, all of the rights and obligations of the

Master Servicer hereunder arising thereafter. Any such assumption shall be

subject to Sections 7.02 and 8.05.

 

            The predecessor Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee,

but at the expense of the predecessor Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming

party all master servicing documents and records 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 substitute documentation and records to the

assuming party. The Trustee shall be entitled to be reimbursed from the Master

Servicer (or the Trust if the Master Servicer is unable to fulfill its

obligations hereunder) for all Master Servicing Transfer Costs.

 

            Section 3.08 Servicer Custodial Accounts; Buy-Down Accounts.

 

             The Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of each Servicer to

establish and maintain a Servicer Custodial Account in accordance with the

applicable Servicing Agreement, with records to be kept with respect thereto on

a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, into which accounts shall be deposited

within 48 hours (or as of such other time specified in the related Servicing

Agreement) of receipt all collections of principal and interest on any Mortgage

Loan and with respect to any REO Property received by a Servicer, including

Principal Prepayments, Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, Recoveries and

Advances made from the Servicer's own funds (less servicing compensation as

permitted by the applicable Servicing Agreement in the case of any Servicer) and

all other amounts to be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account. The Master

Servicer is hereby authorized to make withdrawals from and deposits to the

related Servicer Custodial Account for purposes required or permitted by this

Agreement.

 

             The Master Servicer shall also enforce the obligation of each

Servicer to establish and maintain a Buy-Down Account in accordance with the

applicable Servicing Agreement, with records to be kept with respect thereto on

a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, into which accounts any Buy-Down Funds

shall be deposited within 48 hours (or as of such other time specified in the

related Servicing Agreement) of receipt thereof. The Master Servicer is hereby

authorized to make withdrawals from and deposits to the related Buy-Down Account

for purposes required or permitted by this Agreement. In addition, the Master

Servicer shall enforce the obligation of each Servicer to withdraw from the

Buy-Down Account and deposit in immediately available funds in the Servicer

Custodial Account an amount which, when added to such Mortgagor's payment, will

equal the full monthly payment due under the related Mortgage Note.

 

            Section 3.09 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Master Servicer

Custodial Account, Servicer Custodial Account, Distribution Account and Reserve

Account. (a) Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest

on all Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the Master Servicer shall enforce the

obligations of the Servicers to collect all payments due under the terms and

provisions of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall become due and payable to

the extent such procedures shall be consistent with the applicable Servicing

Agreement.

 

            (b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain the Master

Servicer Custodial Account, which shall be an Eligible Account. The Master

Servicer shall promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Master Servicer Custodial

Account and retain therein any amounts which are required to be deposited in the

Master Servicer Custodial Account by the Master Servicer.

 

            (c) The Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain the

Distribution Account, which shall be deemed to consist of seven sub-accounts and

into which the Master Servicer will deposit on or prior to 11:00 AM New York

time, on each Distribution Date (or, if the Securities Administrator is no

longer the same Person as, or an Affiliate of, the Master Servicer, the Business

Day preceding each Distribution Date), all amounts on deposit in the Master

Servicer Custodial Account for distribution to Certificateholders. The

Distribution Account shall be an Eligible Account.

 

            (d) On a daily basis within one Business Day of receipt, except as

otherwise specifically provided herein, the Master Servicer shall deposit or

cause to be deposited into the Master Servicer Custodial Account the following

payments and collections remitted to the Master Servicer by each Servicer from

its respective Servicer Custodial Account pursuant to the related Servicing

Agreement or otherwise received by the Master Servicer in respect of the

and the following amounts required to be deposited hereunder:

      released from an Escrow Account;

 

            (iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer

      pursuant to Section 3.09(e) in connection with any losses on Permitted

            (v) any amounts relating to REO Property or any Prepayment Premiums

       required to be remitted by the applicable Servicer;

deposited, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Master Servicer

Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. All

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
