POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT
THIS POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated July 28, 2005, is
hereby
executed by and among BANC OF AMERICA
MORTGAGE SECURITIES, INC., as depositor
(together with its permitted successors and
assigns, the "Depositor"), BANK OF
AMERICA, N.A., as servicer (together with
its permitted successors and assigns,
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
In exchange for the Certificates, the Depositor hereby conveys
the
Trust Estate to the Trustee to create the
Trust. The Trust Estate for federal
income tax purposes will be treated as two
separate real estate mortgage
investment conduits (the "Upper-Tier REMIC"
and "Lower-Tier REMIC,"
respectively, and each, a "REMIC"). The
Certificates (other than the Class 1-A-R
Certificate) are referred to collectively
as the "Regular Certificates" and
shall constitute "regular interests" in the
Upper-Tier REMIC. The Uncertificated
Lower-Tier Interests shall constitute the
"regular interests" in the Lower-Tier
REMIC, as detailed in the definition of
"Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interest."
The Class R-L Interest shall constitute the
"residual interest" in the
Lower-Tier REMIC. The Class R-U Interest
shall constitute the "residual
interest" in the Upper-Tier REMIC. The
Class 1-A-R Certificate shall represent
ownership of the Class R-L Interest and the
Class R-U Interest. 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.
The following table sets forth characteristics of the
Certificates,
together with the minimum denominations and
integral multiples in excess thereof
in which the Classes of Certificates shall
be issuable (except that one
Certificate of each Class of Certificates
may be issued in any amount in excess
of the minimum denomination, but less than
the integral multiple in excess of
the minimum):

endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that
Mortgage Note);
(ii) except as provided below, the original recorded Mortgage
with evidence of a recording thereon, or if any such Mortgage
has

Depositor as being a true and correct copy of the Mortgage;
(iii) subject to the provisos at the end of this paragraph, a

with,
except as provided below, originals of all interim recorded
assignments of such mortgage or a copy of such interim
assignment
certified by the Depositor 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

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

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

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

(ix) for each Mortgage Loan secured by Co-op Shares, the

(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), the
Depositor has delivered to the Trustee a
copy of such Assignment of Mortgage in
blank 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).
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
Servicer 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), 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
Servicer to the Trustee or the Custodian on
the Trustee's behalf. 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 Servicer 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, and in any event, within 30
days thereafter, 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 and, 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
either Rating Agency in order to
obtain the initial ratings on the
Certificates on the Closing Date. Set forth on
Exhibit L attached hereto is a list of all
states where recordation is required
by either 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 L.
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 the
Trustee's behalf, will cause the Servicer
to deposit in the Servicer Custodial
Account the portion of such payment that is
required to be deposited in the Servicer
Custodial Account pursuant to Section
3.08.
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, 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 cause the Custodian to
deliver to the Depositor, the Trustee
and the Servicer a certification in the
form of Exhibit M 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 cause the
Custodian to review, the Mortgage Files
in its possession, and shall deliver to the
Depositor, the Trustee and the
Servicer a certification in the form of
Exhibit N 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, the Trustee
shall promptly so notify the Servicer and
the Depositor, or shall cause the
Custodian to promptly so notify the
Servicer and the Depositor. 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. The Depositor
hereby covenants and agrees that it
will promptly correct or cure such defect
within 90 days from the date it was so
notified of such defect and, if the
Depositor does not correct or cure such
defect within such period, the Depositor
will either (a) 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
Trustee 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 shall 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.
With respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan the Depositor
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 and will be retained by the
Depositor. 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
Depositor 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 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 Depositor 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 Section 2.04. Upon any such
substitution and the deposit to the
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
release, or shall direct the
Custodian to release, the Mortgage File
relating to such Defective Mortgage Loan
to the Depositor and shall execute and
deliver at the Depositor's direction such
instruments of transfer or assignment
prepared by the Depositor, in each case
without recourse, as shall be necessary to
vest title in the Depositor, 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 Depositor 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 Loan Group as of the
date of substitution is less than the
aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all
such Defective Mortgage Loans in such
Loan Group (after 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 deposited into the
Servicer Custodial Account by the Depositor
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 Trustee shall retain or shall cause the Custodian to retain
possession and custody of each Mortgage
File in accordance with and subject to
the terms and conditions set forth herein.
The Servicer shall promptly deliver
to the Trustee, upon the execution or, in
the case of documents requiring
recording, receipt thereof, the originals
of such other documents or instruments
constituting the Mortgage File as come into
the Servicer's possession from time
to time.
It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Depositor
to
substitute for or to purchase any Mortgage
Loan which does not meet the
requirements of Section 2.01 shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting such
defect available to the Trustee and any
Certificateholder against the Depositor.
The Trustee or the Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, shall
be
under no duty or obligation (i) to inspect,
review or examine any such
documents, instruments, certificates or
other papers to determine that they are
genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for
the represented purpose or that they
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). In connection with making the
certifications required hereunder, to the
extent a title search or opinion of
counsel has been provided in lieu of a
title policy for any Mortgage Loan, the
Trustee shall only be responsible for
confirming that a title search or opinion
of counsel has been provided for such
Mortgage Loan and shall not be deemed to
have certified that the content of such
title search or opinion of counsel is
sufficient to meet the requirements of
Section 2.01(b)(v).
Section 2.03 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the
Servicer. The Servicer hereby makes the
following representations and warranties
to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of the
Closing Date:
(i) The Servicer is a national banking association duly
organized, validly existing, and in good standing under the
federal
laws of the United States of America and has all licenses
necessary
to carry on its business as now being conducted and is
licensed,
qualified and in good standing in each of the states where a
Mortgaged Property is located if the laws of such state require
licensing or qualification in order to conduct business of the
type
conducted by the Servicer. The Servicer has power and authority
to
execute and deliver this Agreement and to perform in accordance
herewith; the execution, delivery and performance of this
Agreement
(including all instruments of transfer to be delivered pursuant
to
this Agreement) by the Servicer and the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly
authorized. This Agreement, assuming due authorization,
execution
and delivery by the other parties hereto, evidences the valid,
binding and enforceable obligation of the Servicer, subject to
applicable law except as enforceability may be limited by (A)
bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation, receivership, moratorium,
reorganization or other similar laws affecting the enforcement
of
creditors' rights generally or creditors of national banks and
(B)
general principles of equity, whether enforcement is sought in
a
proceeding in equity or at law. All requisite corporate action
has
been taken by the Servicer to make this Agreement valid and
binding
upon the Servicer in accordance with its terms.
(ii) No consent, approval, authorization or order is required
for the transactions contemplated by this Agreement from any
court,
governmental agency or body, or federal or state regulatory
authority having jurisdiction over the Servicer is required or,
if
required, such consent, approval, authorization or order has been
or
will, prior to the Closing Date, be obtained.
(iii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of the
Servicer and will not result in the breach of any term or
provision
of the charter or by-laws of the Servicer or result in the breach
of
any term or provision of, or conflict with or constitute a
default
under or result in the acceleration of any obligation under,
any
agreement, indenture or loan or credit agreement or other
instrument
to which the Servicer or its property is subject, or result in
the
violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree
to
which the Servicer or its property is subject.
(iv) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation
pending or, to the best knowledge of the Servicer, threatened
against the Servicer which, either individually or in the
aggregate,
would result in any material adverse change in the business,
operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the
Servicer, or in any material impairment of the right or ability
of
the Servicer to carry on its business substantially as now
conducted
or which would draw into question the validity of this Agreement
or
the Mortgage Loans or of any action taken or to be taken in
connection with the obligations of the Servicer contemplated
herein,
or which would materially impair the ability of the Servicer to
perform under the terms of this Agreement.
The representations and warranties made pursuant to this
Section
2.03 shall survive delivery of the
respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee for
the benefit of the Certificateholders.
Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as
to
the Mortgage Loans. The Depositor hereby
represents and warrants to the Trustee
with respect to the Mortgage Loans or each
Mortgage Loan, as the case may be, as
of the date hereof or such other date set
forth herein that as of the Closing
Date:
(i) The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is
true and correct in all material respects.
(ii) There are no delinquent taxes, ground rents, governmental
assessments, insurance premiums, leasehold payments, including
assessments payable in future installments or other outstanding
charges affecting the lien priority of the related Mortgaged
Property.
(iii) The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not
been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except
by
written instruments, recorded in the applicable public
recording
office if necessary to maintain the lien priority of the
Mortgage,
and which have been delivered to the Trustee; the substance of
any
such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by
the
insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any, the title
insurer, to the extent required by the related policy, and is
reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. No instrument of
waiver,
alteration or modification has been executed, and no Mortgagor
has
been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with
an
assumption agreement approved by the insurer under the Primary
Insurance Policy, if any, the title insurer, to the extent
required
by the policy, and which assumption agreement has been delivered
to
the Trustee.
(iv) The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any
right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including
the
defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of
the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right
thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage
unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the
defense
of usury and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim
or
defense has been asserted with respect thereto.
(v) All buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by
an insurer generally acceptable to prudent mortgage lending
institutions against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage
and
such other hazards as are customary in the area the Mortgaged
Property is located, pursuant to insurance policies conforming
to
the requirements of Customary Servicing Procedures and this
Agreement. All such insurance policies contain a standard
mortgagee
clause naming the originator of the Mortgage Loan, its
successors
and assigns as mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid.
If
the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified on a flood
hazard
map or flood insurance rate map issued by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such
flood
insurance has been made available), a flood insurance policy
meeting
the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal
Insurance
Administration is in effect which policy conforms to the
requirements of FNMA or FHLMC. The Mortgage obligates the
Mortgagor
thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor's
cost
and expense, and on the Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes
the
holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at
Mortgagor's
cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the
Mortgagor.
(vi) Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local
law including, without limitation, usury, truth in lending,
real
estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protections, all
applicable predatory and abusive lending laws, equal credit
opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to the origination
and
servicing of Mortgage Loan have been complied with.
(vii) The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled,
subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part (other than as
to
Principal Prepayments in full which may have been received prior
to
the Closing Date), and the Mortgaged Property has not been
released
from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any
instrument been executed that would effect any such
satisfaction,
cancellation, subordination, rescission or release.
(viii) The Mortgage is a valid, existing and enforceable first
lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on
the
Mortgaged Property subject only to (A) the lien of current real
property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (B)
covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements
and
other matters of the public record as of the date of recording
being
acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and
specifically referred to in the lender's title insurance policy
delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and which do
not
adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property,
(C)
if the Mortgaged Property consists of Co-op Shares, any lien
for
amounts due to the cooperative housing corporation for unpaid
assessments or charges or any lien of any assignment of rents
or
maintenance expenses secured by the real property owned by the
cooperative housing corporation, and (D) other matters to which
like
properties are commonly subject which do not materially
interfere
with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by
the
Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the
related Mortgaged Property. Any security agreement, chattel
mortgage
or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection
with
the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, existing and
enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on
the
property described therein and the Depositor has the full right
to
sell and assign the same to the Trustee.
(ix) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine
and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the
maker
thereof, enforceable in accordance with its terms except as
enforceability may be limited by (A) bankruptcy, insolvency,
liquidation, receivership, moratorium, reorganization or other
similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of
creditors
and (B) general principles of equity, whether enforcement is
sought
in a proceeding in equity or at law.
(x) All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had
legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute
and
deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, and the Mortgage
Note
and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such
parties.
(xi) The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully
disbursed to or for the account of the Mortgagor and there is
no
obligation for the Mortgagee to advance additional funds
thereunder
and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or
off-site improvements and as to disbursements of any escrow
funds
therefor have been complied with. All costs fees and expenses
incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording
of
the Mortgage have been paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled
to
any refund of any amounts paid or due to the Mortgagee pursuant
to
the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.
(xii) To the best of the Depositor's knowledge, all parties
which have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan, whether as
mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the
period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were)
in
compliance with any and all applicable "doing business" and
licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the
Mortgaged Property is located.
(xiii) (A) the Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's
title insurance policy, acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC, issued by
a
title insurer acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and qualified to do
business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is
located, insuring (subject to the exceptions contained in
(viii)(A)
and (B) above) the Seller, its successors and assigns as to the
first priority lien of
the Mortgage in the original principal amount
of the Mortgage Loan, (B) a title search has been done showing
no
lien (other than the exceptions contained in (viii)(A) and (B)
above) on the related Mortgaged Property senior to the lien of
the
Mortgage or (C) in the case of any Mortgage Loan secured by a
Mortgaged Property located in a jurisdiction where such policies
are
generally not available, an opinion of counsel of the type
customarily rendered in such jurisdiction in lieu of title
insurance
is instead received. For each Mortgage Loan covered by a title
insurance policy (x) the Depositor is the sole insured of such
lender's
title insurance policy, and such lender's title insurance
policy is in full force and effect and will be in full force
and
effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated
by
this Agreement and (y) no claims have been made under such
lender's
title insurance policy, and the Depositor has not done, by act
or
omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such
lender's
title insurance policy.
(xiv)
There is no default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and
no
event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the
expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a
default,
breach, violation or event of acceleration, and the Seller has
not
waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration.
(xv) As of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, there
had been no mechanics' or similar liens or claims filed for
work,
labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under law
could give rise to such lien) affecting the relating Mortgaged
Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or
coordinate
with, the lien of the related Mortgage.
(xvi) All improvements which were considered in determining
the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property lay
wholly
within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the
Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties
encroach upon the Mortgaged Property.
(xvii) The Mortgage Loan was originated by a savings and loan
association, savings bank, commercial bank, credit union,
insurance
company, or similar institution which is supervised and examined
by
a federal or state authority, or by a mortgagee approved by the
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to sections
203
and 211 of the National Housing Act.
(xviii) Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no
more than sixty days after the proceeds of the Mortgaged Loan
were
disbursed. The Mortgage Loans are 10 to 30-year adjustable rate
mortgage loans having an original term to maturity of not more
than
30 years, with interest payable in arrears on the first day of
the
month. Each Mortgage Note requires a monthly payment which is
sufficient to fully amortize the original principal balance over
the
original term thereof and to pay interest at the related
Mortgage
Interest Rate. The Mortgage Note does not permit negative
amortization.
(xix) There is no proceeding pending or, to the Depositor's
knowledge, threatened for the total or partial condemnation of
the
Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is in good repair and
is
undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement,
windstorm,
flood, tornado or other casualty, so as to affect adversely the
value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan
or
the use for which the premises were intended.
(xx) The Mortgage and related Mortgage Note contain customary
and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and
remedies
of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the
Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided
thereby,
including (A) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of
trust, by trustee's sale, and (B) otherwise by judicial
foreclosure.
To the best of the Depositor's knowledge, following the date of
origination of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property has
not
been
subject to any bankruptcy proceeding or foreclosure proceeding
and the Mortgagor has not filed for protection under applicable
bankruptcy laws. There is no homestead or other exemption or
right
available to the Mortgagor or any other person which would
interfere
with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale
or
the right to foreclose the Mortgage.
(xxi) Other than any Borrowers Protection Plan(R) addendum to
the Mortgage Note of a BPP Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Note and
Mortgage are on forms acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC.
(xxii) The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by
any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage on
the
Mortgaged Property and the security interest of any applicable
security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in (viii)
above.
(xxiii) Each appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property is in
a form acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and such appraisal complies
with
the requirements of FIRREA, and was made and signed, prior to
the
approval of the Mortgage Loan application, by a Qualified
Appraiser.
(xxiv) In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust,
a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such,
has
been properly designated and currently so serves, and no fees
or
expenses are or will become payable by the Trustee to the
trustee
under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's
sale
after default by the Mortgagor.
(xxv) No Mortgage Loan is a graduated payment mortgage loan,
no Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation or other contingent
interest feature, and no more than 0.00%, 0.42%, 0.98% and 0.00%
(by
Cut-off Date Principal Balance) of the Group 1, Group 2, Group 3
and
Group 4 Mortgage Loans, respectively, are Buy-Down Mortgage
Loans.
(xxvi) The Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials
required by applicable law with respect to the making of
mortgage
loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loan and rescission
materials
required by applicable law if the Mortgage Loan is a Refinance
Mortgage Loan.
(xxvii) Each Primary Insurance Policy to which any Mortgage
Loan is subject, will
be issued by an insurer acceptable to FNMA or
FHLMC, which insures that portion of the Mortgage Loan in excess
of
the portion of the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property
required by FNMA. All provisions of such Primary Insurance
Policy
have been and are being complied with, such policy is in full
force
and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. Any
Mortgage subject to any such Primary Insurance Policy obligates
the
Mortgagor thereunder to maintain such insurance and to pay all
premiums and charges in connection therewith at least until
Loan-to-Value Ratio of such Mortgage Loan is reduced to less
than
80%. The
Mortgage Interest Rate for the Mortgage Loan does not
include any such insurance premium.
(xxviii) To the best of the Depositor's knowledge as of the
date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, (A) the Mortgaged
Property
is lawfully occupied under applicable law, (B) all inspections,
licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with
respect
to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with
respect
to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited
to
certificates of occupancy, have been made or obtained from the
appropriate authorities and (C) no improvement located on or part
of
the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any zoning law or
regulation.
(xxix) The Assignment of Mortgage (except with respect to any
Mortgage that has been recorded in the name of MERS or its
designee)
is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the
laws
of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located.
(xxx) All payments required to be made prior to the Cut-off
Date for such Mortgage Loan under the terms of the Mortgage
Note
have been made and no Mortgage Loan has been more than 30 days
delinquent more than once in the twelve month period
immediately
prior to the Cut-off Date.
(xxxi) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Depositor or
Servicer is in possession of a complete Mortgage File except for
the
documents which have been delivered to the Trustee or which
have
been submitted for recording and not yet returned.
(xxxii) Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment
contemplated herein, the Depositor was the sole owner and holder
of
the Mortgage Loans. The Mortgage Loans were not assigned or
pledged
by the Depositor and the Depositor had good and marketable
title
thereto, and the Depositor had full right to transfer and sell
the
Mortgage Loans to the Trustee free and clear of any
encumbrance,
participation interest, lien, equity, pledge, claim or security
interest and had full right and authority subject to no interest
or
participation in, or agreement with any other party to sell or
otherwise transfer the Mortgage Loans.
(xxxiii) Any future advances made prior to the Cut-off Date
have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount
secured
by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as
consolidated,
bears a single interest rate and single repayment term. The lien
of
the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is
expressly
insured as having first lien priority by a title insurance
policy,
an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee's
consolidated
interest or by other title evidence acceptable to FNMA and
FHLMC.
The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original
principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.
(xxxiv) The Mortgage Loan was underwritten in accordance with
the applicable Underwriting Guidelines in effect at the time of
origination with exceptions thereto exercised in a reasonable
manner.
(xxxv) If the Mortgage Loan is secured by a long-term
residential lease, (1) the lessor under the lease holds a fee
simple
interest in the land; (2) the terms of such lease expressly
permit
the mortgaging of the leasehold estate, the assignment of the
lease
without the lessor's consent and the acquisition by the holder
of
the Mortgage of the rights of the lessee upon foreclosure or
assignment in lieu of foreclosure or provide the holder of the
Mortgage with substantially similar protections; (3) the terms
of
such lease do not (a) allow the termination thereof upon the
lessee's default without the holder of the Mortgage being
entitled
to receive
written notice of, and opportunity to cure, such default,
(b) allow the termination of the lease in the event of damage
or
destruction as long as the Mortgage is in existence, (c)
prohibit
the holder of the Mortgage from being insured (or receiving
proceeds
of insurance) under the hazard insurance policy or policies
relating
to the Mortgaged Property or (d) permit any increase in the
rent
other than pre-established increases set forth in the lease; (4)
the
original term of such lease in not less than 15 years; (5) the
term
of such lease does not terminate earlier than five years after
the
maturity date of the Mortgage Note; and (6) the Mortgaged
Property
is located in a jurisdiction in which the use of leasehold
estates
in transferring ownership in residential properties is a widely
accepted practice.
(xxxvi) No more than 0.00%, 0.21%, 0.00% and 0.64% (by Cut-off
Date Principal Balance) of the Group 1, Group 2, Group 3 and Group
4
Mortgage Loans, respectively, are secured by long-term
residential
leases.
(xxxvii) The Mortgaged Property is located in the state
identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a parcel
of
real property with a detached single family residence erected
thereon, or a two- to four-family dwelling, or an individual
condominium unit, or an individual unit in a planned unit
development, or, in the case of Mortgage Loans secured by Co-op
Shares, leases or occupancy agreements; provided, however, that
any
condominium project or planned unit development generally
conforms
with the applicable Underwriting Guidelines regarding such
dwellings, and no residence or dwelling is a mobile home or a
manufactured dwelling.
(xxxviii) The Depositor used no adverse selection procedures
in selecting the Mortgage Loan for inclusion in the Trust
Estate.
(xxxix) Each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage" within
the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code.
(xl) With respect to each Mortgage where a lost note affidavit
has been delivered to the Trustee in place of the related
Mortgage
Note, the related Mortgage Note is no longer in existence.
(xli) No Mortgage Loan is a "high cost" loan as defined under
any federal, state or local law applicable to such Mortgage Loan
at
the time of its origination.
(xlii) No Mortgage Loan (other than a Mortgage Loan that is a
New Jersey covered purchase loan originated on or after November
27,
2003 through July 6, 2004) is a High Cost Loan or Covered Loan,
as
applicable (as such terms are defined in the then-current
S&P's
LEVELS(R) Glossary which is now Version 5.6b, Appendix E) and
no
Mortgage Loan originated on or after October 1, 2002 through
March
6, 2003 is governed by the Georgia Fair Lending Act.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, no representations or warranties
are
made by the Depositor as to the
environmental condition of any Mortgaged
Property; the absence, presence or effect
of hazardous wastes or hazardous
substances on any Mortgaged Property; any
casualty resulting from the presence
or effect of hazardous wastes or hazardous
substances on, near or emanating from
any Mortgaged Property; the impact on
Certificateholders of any environmental
condition or presence of any hazardous
substance on or near any Mortgaged
Property; or the compliance of any
Mortgaged Property with any environmental
laws, nor is any agent, Person or entity
otherwise affiliated with the Depositor
authorized or able to make any such
representation, warranty or assumption of
liability relative to any Mortgaged
Property. In addition, no representations or
warranties are made by the Depositor with
respect to the absence or effect of
fraud in the origination of any Mortgage
Loan.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and
warranties
set forth in this Section 2.04 shall
survive delivery of the respective Mortgage
Files to the Trustee or the Custodian and
shall inure to the benefit of the
Trustee, notwithstanding any restrictive or
qualified endorsement or assignment.
Upon discovery by any of the Depositor, the Servicer, the Trustee
or
the Custodian that any of the
representations and warranties set forth in this
Section 2.04 is not accurate (referred to
herein as a "breach") and that such
breach materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders
in the related Mortgage Loan, the party
discovering such breach shall give
prompt written notice to the other parties
(any Custodian being so obligated
under a Custodial Agreement); 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. Within
90 days of its discovery or its
receipt of notice of any such breach, the
Depositor shall cure such breach in
all material respects or shall either (i)
repurchase the Mortgage Loan or any
property acquired in respect thereof from
the Trustee at a price equal to the
Repurchase Price or (ii) if within two
years of the Closing Date, substitute for
such Mortgage Loan in the manner described
in Section 2.02; provided that if the
breach would cause the Mortgage Loan to be
other than a "qualified mortgage" as
defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code,
any such repurchase or substitution
must occur within 90 days from the date the
breach was discovered. In addition
to the foregoing, if a breach of the
representation set forth in clause (vi) of
this Section 2.04 occurs as a result of a
violation of an applicable predatory
or abusive lending law, the Depositor shall
reimburse the Trust for all costs or
damages incurred by the Trust as a result
of the violation of such law (such
amount, the "Reimbursement Amount"). The
Repurchase Price of any repurchase
described in this paragraph, the
Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, and any
Reimbursement Amount shall be deposited in
the Servicer Custodial Account. It is
understood and agreed that, except with
respect to the second preceding
sentence, the obligation of the Depositor
to repurchase or substitute for any
Mortgage Loan or Mortgaged Property as to
which such a breach has occurred and
is continuing shall constitute the sole
remedy respecting such breach available
to Certificateholders, or to the Trustee on
behalf of Certificateholders, and
such obligation shall survive until
termination of the Trust hereunder.
Section 2.05 Designation of Interests in the REMICs. The
Depositor
hereby designates the Classes of Senior
Certificates (other than the Class 1-A-R
Certificate) and the Classes of Class B
Certificates as "regular interests" and
the Class R-U Interest as the single class
of "residual interest" in the
Upper-Tier REMIC for the purposes of Code
Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860G(a)(2),
respectively. The Depositor hereby further
designates the Class 1-L Interest,

the single class of "residual interest" in
the Lower-Tier REMIC for the purposes
of Code Sections 860G(a)(1) and 860G(a)(2),
respectively.
Section 2.06 Designation of Start-up Day. The Closing Date is
hereby
designated as the "start-up day" of each of
the Upper-Tier REMIC and Lower-Tier
REMIC within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(9) of the Code.
Section 2.07 REMIC Certificate Maturity Date. Solely for purposes
of
satisfying Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of
the Treasury Regulations, the "latest
possible maturity date" of the regular
interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC and
Lower-Tier REMIC is August 25, 2035.
Section 2.08 Execution and Delivery of Certificates. The Trustee
(i)
acknowledges the issuance of and hereby
declares that it holds the
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests on
behalf of the Upper-Tier REMIC and the
Certificateholders and (ii) has executed
and delivered to or upon the order of
the Depositor, in exchange for the Mortgage
Loans and Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interests, together with all other assets
included in the definition of "Trust
Estate," receipt of which is hereby
acknowledged, Certificates in authorized
denominations which, together with the
Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests,
evidence ownership of the entire Trust
Estate.
Section 2.09 Repurchase of Converted Mortgage Loans. The
Depositor
shall repurchase from the Trust any
Converted Mortgage Loan prior to the first
Due Date for such Mortgage Loan following
the Conversion Date. Any such
repurchase shall be at the Repurchase
Price. The Repurchase Price for any
repurchased Converted Mortgage Loan shall
be deposited by the Depositor in the
Servicer Custodial Account and, upon
receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of any such deposit signed by
an officer of the Depositor and a
Request for Release, the Trustee shall
release to the Depositor the related
Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver
such instruments of transfer or
assignment prepared by the Depositor, in
each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary to vest in the Depositor legal
and beneficial ownership of such
Converted Mortgage Loan.
ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans. For and on
behalf
of the Certificateholders, the Servicer
shall service and administer the
Mortgage Loans, all 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 3.21. 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 the 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 or agreements of
satisfaction, cancellation, default,
assumption, modification, discharge,
partial or full release, and all other
comparable instruments and agreements,
with respect to the Mortgage Loans it
services, and with respect to the related
Mortgaged Properties held for the benefit
of the Certificateholders. To the
extent that the Servicer is not permitted
to execute and deliver such documents
pursuant to the preceding sentence, the
Servicer shall prepare and deliver to
the Depositor and/or the Trustee such
documents requiring execution and delivery
by either or both of them as are necessary
or appropriate to enable the Servicer
to service and administer the Mortgage
Loans it services. 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.
Alternatively, upon the request of the
Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and
deliver to the Servicer any additional
powers of attorney and other documents
prepared by the Servicer that are
reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable
the Servicer to carry out its servicing and
administrative duties under this
Agreement.
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 3.09, and
further as provided in Section 3.11.
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
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 each 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 Agreements and the pursuit of
other appropriate remedies, shall be in
such form and carried out to such an
extent and at such time as the Servicer, in
its good faith business judgment,
would require were it the owner of the
related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer
shall pay the costs of such enforcement at
its own expense, and shall be
reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general
recovery resulting from such
enforcement to the extent, if any, that
such recovery exceeds all amounts due in
respect of the related Mortgage 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.
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.
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 upon reasonable and prior
written request and during normal business
hours at the offices designated by the
Servicer; provided that the Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each
such Certificateholder for actual
expenses incurred by the Servicer in
providing such reports and access. 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 Insurance Policy; Claims;
Collections of BPP Mortgage Loan Payments.
(a) 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 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
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
Insurance Policy. If the insurer shall cease
to be an insurer acceptable to FNMA or
FHLMC, 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
Insurance Policy for such reason. If the
Servicer determines that recoveries
under the Primary 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 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
3.13, the Servicer shall promptly notify
the insurer under the related Primary
Insurance Policy, if any, of such
assumption or substitution of liability in
accordance with the terms of such Primary
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 Insurance
Policy. If such Primary Insurance
Policy is terminated as a result of such
assumption or substitution of
liability, the Servicer shall obtain a
replacement Primary 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 Insurance Policy in
a timely fashion in accordance with the
terms of such Primary Insurance Policy
and, in this regard, to take such action as
shall be necessary to permit
recovery under any Primary Insurance Policy
respecting a defaulted Mortgage
Loan. Pursuant to Section 3.09(a), any
amounts collected by the Servicer under
any Primary Insurance Policy shall be
deposited in the related Escrow Account,
subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section
3.09(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, Primary Mortgage Insurance,
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.
(b) The Servicer shall take all actions necessary to collect,
on
behalf of the Trust, any BPP Mortgage Loan
Payments required to be made to the
Trust pursuant to the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement.
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
related 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 hereunder or otherwise.
Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any
transactions or services relating to the
Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer
in its capacity as such shall be deemed to
be between the Subservicer and the
Servicer alone, and the Trustee and
Certificateholders shall not be deemed
parties thereto and shall have no claims,
rights, obligations, duties or
liabilities with respect to the Subservicer
except as set forth in Section 3.07.
The Servicer shall be solely liable for all
fees owed by it to any Subservicer,
irrespective of whether the Servicer's
compensation pursuant to this Agreement
is sufficient to pay such fees.
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
3.12 or any acts or omissions of the
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 such 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 substitute 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; Servicer
Custodial Account and Certificate Account.
(a) 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 charge 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 3.20 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.
(b) The Servicer shall establish and maintain the Servicer
Custodial
Account. The Servicer 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 it services:
(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) required
to
be deposited to an Escrow Account pursuant to Section 3.09(a),
and
other than any Excess Proceeds and (B) any Insurance Proceeds
released from an Escrow Account pursuant to Section
3.09(b)(iv);
(iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.08(d) 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 3.14;
(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 3.20 and any Compensating Interest;
(viii) any Recoveries;
(ix) any Buy-Down Funds required to be deposited pursuant to
Section 3.23; and
(x) 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, 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 shall not be permitted at any
time during which Fitch's senior long-term
unsecured debt rating of Bank of
America is below "A". 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 3.08. 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
3.11.
(c) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Certificate
Account, which shall be deemed to consist of
five sub-accounts. The Trustee shall,
promptly upon receipt, deposit in the
Certificate Account and retain therein the
following:
(i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Servicer to the
Trustee pursuant to Section 3.11(a)(viii);
(ii) any amount paid by the Trustee pursuant to Section
3.08(d) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments
with
respect to the Certificate Account; and
(iii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required
to be deposited in the Certificate 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
Certificate 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 Certificate
Account. All funds required to be deposited
in the Certificate 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 3.11. In
no event shall the Trustee incur liability
for withdrawals from the Certificate
Account at the direction of the
Servicer.
(d) Each institution at which the Servicer Custodial Account or
the
Certificate 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 Certificate
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 Certificate 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 Certificate Account shall be
for the benefit of the Trustee as
additional compensation and shall be
retained by it monthly as provided herein.
The amount of any losses realized in the
Servicer Custodial Account or the
Certificate 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
Certificate Account, as applicable.
(e) The Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee of any
proposed
change of the location of the Servicer
Custodial Account maintained by the
Servicer 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 and
the Depositor of any proposed change of the
location of the Certificate 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 shall be evidenced by a
certification substantially in the form of
Exhibit F hereto. A copy of such
certification shall be furnished to the
Trustee.
(f) The Trustee shall designate the Upper-Tier Certificate
Sub-Account as a sub-account of the
Certificate Account. On each Distribution
Date (other than the Final Distribution
Date, if such Final Distribution Date is
in connection with a purchase of the assets
of the Trust Estate by the
Depositor), the Trustee shall, from funds
available on deposit in the
Certificate Account, be deemed to deposit
into the Upper-Tier Certificate
Sub-Account, the Lower-Tier Distribution
Amount.
Section 3.09 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 "Bank of America, N.A., in
trust for registered holders of Banc of
America Mortgage Securities, Inc.
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series
2005-G 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 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 3.09(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, 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 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 3.10 Access to Certain Documentation and Information
Regarding the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer
shall afford the Trustee 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 3.11 Permitted Withdrawals from the Servicer Custodial
Account and Certificate Account. (a) The
Servicer may from time to time make
withdrawals from the Servicer Custodial
Account, for the following purposes:
(i) to pay to the Servicer (to the extent not previously
retained),
the
Servicing Compensation to which it is entitled pursuant to
Section
3.17;
(ii) to reimburse the Servicer for unreimbursed Advances made by
it,
such right
of reimbursement pursuant to this clause (ii) being limited to
amounts
received on the Mortgage Loan(s) (including amounts received in
respect of
BPP Mortgage Loan Payments for such Mortgage Loan) in respect
of which
any such Advance was made;
(iii) to reimburse the Servicer for any Nonrecoverable Advance
previously
made, such right of reimbursement pursuant to this clause (iii)
being
limited to amounts received on the Mortgage Loans in the same
Loan
Group as
the Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which such Nonrecoverable
Advance
was made;
(iv) to reimburse the Servicer 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,
2.09
or
3.14(b), all amounts received thereon after the date of such
purchase;
(vi) to reimburse the Servicer or the Depositor for expenses
incurred
by any of them and reimbursable pursuant to 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 related Pool Distribution Amount (less, at the Servicer's
option,
but only for so long as Bank of America is the Servicer and
Bank
of America
or an affiliate is the sole Holder of the Class 1-IO
Certificates, an amount up to the sum of the Interest Distribution
Amounts
for such
Certificates for the related Distribution Date, which amount
shall be
withdrawn on the related Distribution Date and remitted to the
Holders of
the Class 1-IO Certificates on behalf of the Trustee) for such
Distribution Date, to the extent on deposit, and remit such amount
in
immediately available funds to the Trustee for deposit in the
Certificate
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 Loan Group. 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.
(b) The Trustee shall be deemed to withdraw funds from the
applicable Certificate Account sub-accounts
to deposit the Lower-Tier
Distribution Amount into the Upper-Tier
Certificate Sub-Account and for
distributions to Certificateholders in the
manner specified in this Agreement.
In addition, the Trustee may from time to
time make withdrawals from the
Certificate 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 Certificate Account and any
other
amounts (other than the Trustee Fee) due to it under this
Agreement
for the
related Distribution Date;
(iii) to withdraw and return to the Servicer any amount deposited
in
the
Certificate Account and not required to be deposited therein;
and
(iv) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon
termination
of this
Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.
(c) On each Distribution Date, funds on deposit in the
Certificate
Account and deemed to be on deposit in the
Upper-Tier Certificate Sub-Account
shall be used to make payments on the
Regular Certificates and the Class 1-A-R
Certificate in respect of the Class R-U
Interest, as provided in Sections 5.01
and 5.02. The Certificate Account shall be
cleared and terminated upon
termination of this Agreement pursuant to
Section 10.01.
Section 3.12 Maintenance of Hazard 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
3.11(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 3.12. 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 3.12 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
3.12 and the amount paid under such
blanket policy.
Section 3.13 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements. (a) Except as otherwise
provided in this Section 3.13, 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 3.13(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
3.13(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
3.13 by reason of any transfer or
assumption which the Servicer reasonably
believes it is restricted by law from
preventing, for any reason whatsoever.
(b) Subject to the Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale
clause
to the extent set forth in Section 3.13(a),
in any case in which a Mortgaged
Property has been conveyed to a Person by a
Mortgagor, and such Person is to
enter into an assumption agreement or
modification agreement or supplement to
the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or if an
instrument of release is required
releasing the Mortgagor from liability on
the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall
prepare and execute the assumption
agreement with the Person to whom the
Mortgaged Property is to be conveyed and
such modification agreement or
supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage
or other instruments as are
reasonable or necessary to carry out the
terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage
or otherwise to comply with any applicable
laws regarding assumptions or the
transfer of the Mortgaged Property to such
Person. In connection with any such
assumption, no material term of the
Mortgage Note may be changed. In addition,
the substitute Mortgagor and the Mortgaged
Property must be acceptable to the
Servicer in accordance with its
underwriting standards as then in effect.
Together with each such substitution,
assumption or other agreement or
instrument, the Servicer shall execute an
Officer's Certificate signed by a
Servicing Officer stating that the
requirements of this subsection have been
met. The Servicer shall notify the Trustee
that any such substitution or
assumption agreement has been completed by
forwarding to the Trustee (or at the
direction of the Trustee, the Custodian)
the Officer's Certificate described in
the previous sentence and the original of
such substitution or assumption
agreement, which in the case of the
original shall be added to the related
Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes,
be considered a part of such Mortgage
File to the same extent as all other
documents and instruments constituting a
part thereof. Any fee collected by the
Servicer for entering into an assumption
or substitution of liability agreement may
be retained by the Servicer as
additional Servicing Compensation.
Section 3.14 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; REO
Property. (a) Subject to Section 3.21, the
Servicer shall use reasonable efforts
to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably
convert the ownership of Mortgaged
Properties securing such of the Mortgage
Loans as come into and continue in
default and as to which no satisfactory
arrangements can be made for collection
of delinquent payments. In connection with
such foreclosure or other conversion,
the Servicer shall follow Customary
Servicing Procedures and shall meet the
requirements of the insurer under any
Required Insurance Policy; provided,
however, that the Servicer may enter into a
special servicing agreement with an
unaffiliated Holder of 100% Percentage
Interest of a Class of Class B
Certificates or a holder of a class of
securities representing interests in the
Class B Certificates alone or together with
other subordinated mortgage
pass-through certificates. Such agreement
shall be substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit K or subject to
each Rating Agency's acknowledgment
that the ratings of the Certificates in
effect immediately prior to the entering
into such agreement would not be qualified,
downgraded or withdrawn and the
Certificates would not be placed on credit
review status (except for possible
upgrading) as a result of such agreement.
Any such agreement may contain
provisions whereby such holder may instruct
the Servicer to commence or delay
foreclosure proceedings with respect to
delinquent Mortgage Loans and will
contain provisions for the deposit of cash
by the holder that would be available
for distribution to Certificateholders if
Liquidation Proceeds are less than
they otherwise may have been had the
Servicer acted in accordance with its
normal procedures. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Servicer shall not be
required to expend its own funds in
connection with any foreclosure or towards
the restoration of any Mortgaged Property
unless it shall determine (i) that
such restoration and/or foreclosure will
increase the proceeds of liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to
itself of such expenses and (ii) that
such expenses will be recoverable to it
through proceeds of the liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan (respecting which it
shall have priority for purposes of
withdrawals from the Servicer Custodial
Account). Any such expenditures shall
constitute Servicing Advances for purposes
of this Agreement.
With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of
sale
shall be taken in the name of the Trustee
for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, or its nominee, on
behalf of the Certificateholders. The
Trustee's name shall be placed on the title
to such REO Property solely as the
Trustee hereunder and not in its individual
capacity. The Servicer shall ensure
that the title to such REO Property
references this Agreement and the Trustee's
capacity hereunder. Pursuant to its efforts
to sell such REO Property, the
Servicer shall either itself or through an
agent selected by the Servicer
manage, conserve, protect and operate such
REO Property in the same manner that
it manages, conserves, protects and
operates other foreclosed property for its
own account and in the same manner that
similar property in the same locality as
the REO Property is managed. Incident to
its conservation and protection of the
interests of the Certificateholders, the
Servicer may rent the same, or any part
thereof, as the Servicer deems to be in the
best interest of the
Certificateholders for the period prior to
the sale of such REO Property. The
Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to
the Trustee a statement with respect
to each REO Property that has been rented,
if any, showing the aggregate rental
income received and all expenses incurred
in connection with the management and
maintenance of such REO Property at such
times as is necessary to enable the
Trustee to comply with the reporting
requirements of the REMIC Provisions;
provided, however, that the Servicer shall
have no duty to rent any REO Property
on behalf of the Trust. The net monthly
rental income, if any, from such REO
Property shall be deposited in the Servicer
Custodial Account no later than the
close of business on each Determination
Date. The Servicer shall perform, with
respect to the Mortgage Loans, the tax
reporting and withholding required by
Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with
respect to foreclosures and
abandonments, the tax reporting required by
Section 6050H of the Code with
respect to the receipt of mortgage interest
from individuals and, if required by
Section 6050P of the Code with respect to
the cancellation of indebtedness by
certain financial entities, by preparing
such tax and information returns as may
be required, in the form required.
If the Trust acquires any Mortgaged Property as described above
or
otherwise in connection with a default or a
default which is reasonably
foreseeable on a Mortgage Loan, the
Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged
Property prior to the end of the third
calendar year following the year of its
acquisition by the Trust (such period, the
"REO Disposition Period") unless (A)
the Trustee shall have been supplied by the
Servicer with an Opinion of Counsel
to the effect that the holding by the Trust
of such Mortgaged Property
subsequent to the REO Disposition Period
will not result in the imposition of
taxes on "prohibited transactions" (as
defined in Section 860F of the Code) on
either of the Upper-Tier REMIC or the
Lower-Tier REMIC or cause either REMIC
created hereunder to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at any time that any
Certificates or Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interests are outstanding, or (B) the
Trustee (at the Servicer's expense) or the
Servicer shall have applied for,
prior to the expiration of the REO
Disposition Period, an extension of the REO
Disposition Period in the manner
contemplated by Section 856(e)(3) of the Code.
If such an Opinion of Counsel is provided
or such an exemption is obtained, the
Trust may continue to hold such Mortgaged
Property (subject to any conditions
contained in such Opinion of Counsel) for
the applicable period. Notwithstanding
any other provision of this Agreement, no
Mortgaged Property acquired by the
Trust shall be rented (or allowed to
continue to be rented) or otherwise used
for the production of income by or on
behalf of the Trust in such a manner or
pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause
such Mortgaged Property to fail to
qualify as "foreclosure property" within
the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of
the Code or (ii) subject either REMIC
created hereunder to the imposition of any
federal, state or local income taxes on the
income earned from such Mortgaged
Property under Section 860G(c) of the Code
or otherwise, unless the Servicer has
agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the
Trust with respect to the imposition
of any such taxes. The Servicer shall
identify to the Trustee any Mortgaged
Property relating to a Mortgage Loan held
by the Trust for 30 months for which
no plans to dispose of such Mortgaged
Property by the Servicer have been made.
After delivery of such identification, the
Servicer shall proceed to dispose of
any such Mortgaged Property by holding a
commercially reasonable auction for
such property.
The income earned from the management of any REO Properties, net
of
reimbursement to the Servicer for expenses
incurred (including any property or
other taxes) in connection with such
management and net of unreimbursed
Servicing Fees, Periodic Advances and
Servicing Advances, shall be applied to
the payment of principal of and interest on
the related defaulted Mortgage Loans
(solely for the purposes of allocating
principal and interest, interest shall be
treated as accruing as though such Mortgage
Loans were still current) and all
such income shall be deemed, for all
purposes in this Agreement, to be payments
on account of principal and interest on the
related Mortgage Notes and shall be
deposited into the Servicer Custodial
Account. To the extent the net income
received during any calendar month is in
excess of the amount attributable to
amortizing principal and accrued interest
at the related Mortgage Interest Rate
on the related Mortgage Loan for such
calendar month, such excess shall be
considered to be a partial prepayment of
principal of the related Mortgage Loan.
The proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as
any
income from an REO Property, will be
applied in the following order of priority:
first, to reimburse the Servicer for any
related unreimbursed Servicing Advances
and Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse
the Servicer for any unreimbursed
Periodic Advances and to reimburse the
Servicer Custodial Account for any
Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions
thereof) that were previously withdrawn by
the Servicer pursuant to Section
3.11(a)(iii) that related to such Mortgage
Loan; third, to accrued and unpaid interest
(to the extent no Periodic Advance
has been made for such amount or any such
Periodic Advance has been reimbursed)
on the Mortgage Loan or related REO
Property, at the Mortgage Interest Rate to
the Due Date occurring in the month in
which such amounts are required to be
distributed; and fourth, as a recovery of
principal of the Mortgage Loan. Excess
Proceeds, if any, from the liquidation of a
Liquidated Mortgage Loan will be
retained by the Servicer as additional
Servicing Compensation pursuant to
Section 3.17.
(b) The Servicer shall promptly notify the Depositor of any
Mortgage
Loan which comes into default. The
Depositor shall be entitled, at its option,
to repurchase (i) any such defaulted
Mortgage Loan from the Trust Estate if (a)
in the Depositor's judgment, the default is
not likely to be cured by the
Mortgagor and (b) such Mortgage Loan is 180
days or more delinquent or (ii) any
Mortgage Loan in the Trust Estate which
pursuant to Section 4(b) of the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement the Seller requests
the Depositor to repurchase and to
sell to the Seller to facilitate the
exercise of the Seller's rights against the
originator or prior holder of such Mortgage
Loan. The purchase price for any
such Mortgage Loan shall be 100% of the
unpaid principal balance of such
Mortgage Loan plus accrued interest thereon
at the Mortgage Interest Rate
through the last day of the month in which
such repurchase occurs. Upon the
receipt of such purchase price, the
Servicer shall provide to the Trustee the
notification required by Section 3.15 and
the Trustee or the Custodian shall
promptly release to the Depositor the
Mortgage File relating to the Mortgage
Loan being repurchased.
Section 3.15 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.
Upon
the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan,
or the receipt by the Servicer of a
notification that payment in full will be
escrowed in a manner customary for
such purposes, the Servicer will
immediately notify the Trustee (or, at the
direction of the Trustee, the Custodian) by
delivering, or causing to be
delivered, two copies (one of which will be
returned to the Servicer with the
Mortgage File) of a Request for Release
(which may be delivered in an electronic
format acceptable to the Trustee and the
Servicer). Upon receipt of such
request, the Trustee or the Custodian, as
applicable, shall within seven
Business Days release the related Mortgage
File to the Servicer. The Trustee
shall deliver to the Servicer the Mortgage
Note with written evidence of
cancellation thereon. If the Mortgage has
been recorded in the name of MERS or
its designee, the Servicer shall take all
necessary action to reflect the
release of the Mortgage on the records of
MERS. Expenses incurred in connection
with any instrument of satisfaction or deed
of reconveyance shall be chargeable
to the related Mortgagor. From time to time
and as shall be appropriate for the
servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage
Loan, including for such purpose
collection under any policy of flood
insurance, any fidelity bond or errors or
omissions policy, or for the purposes of
effecting a partial release of any
Mortgaged Property from the lien of the
Mortgage or the making of any
corrections to the Mortgage Note or the
Mortgage or any of the other documents
included in the Mortgage File, the Trustee
or the Custodian, as applicable,
shall, upon delivery to the Trustee (or, at
the direction of the Trustee, the
Custodian) of a Request for Release signed
by a Servicing Officer, release the
Mortgage File within seven Business Days to
the Servicer. Subject to the further
limitations set forth below, the Servicer
shall cause the Mortgage File so
released to be returned to the Trustee or
the Custodian, as applicable, when the
need therefor by the Servicer no longer
exists, unless the Mortgage Loan is
liquidated and the proceeds thereof are
deposited in the Servicer Custodial
Account, in which case the Servicer shall
deliver to the Trustee or the
Custodian, as applicable, a Request for
Release, signed by a Servicing Officer.
Upon prepayment in full of any Mortgage Loan or the receipt of
notice that funds for such purpose have
been placed in escrow, the Servicer
shall give an instrument of satisfaction
(or Assignment of Mortgage without
recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property
relating to such Mortgage Loan, which
instrument of satisfaction or Assignment of
Mortgage, as the case may be, shall
be delivered to the Person entitled thereto
against receipt of the prepayment in
full. If the Mortgage is registered in the
name of MERS or its designee, the
Servicer shall take all necessary action to
reflect the release on the records
of MERS. In lieu of executing such
satisfaction or Assignment of Mortgage, or if
another document is required to be executed
by the Trustee, the Servicer may
deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee, for signature, as appropriate,
any court pleadings, requests for trustee's
sale or other documents necessary to
effectuate such foreclosure or any legal
action brought to obtain judgment
against the Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note
or the Mortgage or to obtain a
deficiency judgment or to enforce any other
remedies or rights provided by the
Mortgage Note or the Mortgage or otherwise
available at law or in equity.
Section 3.16 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of the
Servicer to be Held for the Trustee. The
Servicer shall transmit to the Trustee
or, at the direction of the Trustee, the
Custodian as required by this Agreement
all documents and instruments in respect of
a Mortgage Loan coming into the
possession of the Servicer from time to
time and shall account fully to the
Trustee for any funds received by the
Servicer or which otherwise are collected
by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or
Insurance Proceeds in respect of any
Mortgage Loan. The documents constituting
the Servicing File shall be held by
the Servicer as custodian and bailee for
the Trustee. All Mortgage Files and
funds collected or held by, or under the
control of, the Servicer in respect of
any Mortgage Loans, whether from the
collection of principal and interest
payments or from Liquidation Proceeds,
including but not limited to, any funds
on deposit in the Servicer Custodial
Account, shall be held by the Servicer for
and on behalf of the Trustee and shall be
and remain the sole and exclusive
property of the Trustee, subject to the
applicable provisions of this Agreement.
The Servicer also agrees that it shall not
knowingly create, incur or subject
any Mortgage File or any funds that are
deposited in the Servicer Custodial
Account, Certificate Account or any Escrow
Account, or any funds that otherwise
are or may become due or payable to the
Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, to any claim, lien,
security interest, judgment, levy, writ
of attachment or other encumbrance created
by the Servicer, or assert by legal
action or otherwise any claim or right of
setoff against any Mortgage File or
any funds collected on, or in connection
with, a Mortgage Loan, except, however,
that the Servicer shall be entitled to set
off against and deduct from any such
funds any amounts that are properly due and
payable to the Servicer under this
Agreement.
Section 3.17 Servicing Compensation. The Servicer shall be
entitled
out of each payment of interest on a
Mortgage Loan (or portion thereof) and
included in the Trust Estate to retain or
withdraw from the Servicer Custodial
Account an amount equal to the Servicing
Fee for such Distribution Date;
provided, however, that the aggregate
Servicing Fee for the Servicer relating to
the Mortgage Loans shall be reduced (but
not below zero) by an amount equal to
the Compensating Interest.
Any additional Servicing Compensation shall be retained by the
Servicer to the extent not required to be
deposited in the Servicer Custodial
Account pursuant to Section 3.08(b). The
Servicer shall be required to pay all
expenses incurred by it in connection with
its servicing activities hereunder
and shall not be entitled to reimbursement
therefor except as specifically
provided in this Agreement.
Section 3.18 Annual Statement as to Compliance. Commencing in
the
calendar year following the date of this
Agreement, the Servicer shall deliver
to the Trustee and each Rating Agency on or
before the 10th day (or if not a
Business Day, the immediately preceding
Business Day) preceding the latest day
in each year on which an annual report on
Form 10-K may be timely filed with the
Securities and Exchange Commission (without
regard to any extension), an
Officer's Certificate stating, as to the
signer thereof, that (a) a review of
the activities of the Servicer during the
preceding calendar year and of the
performance of the Servicer under this
Agreement has been made under such
officer's supervision, and (b) to the best
of such officer's knowledge, based on
such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all
its obligations under this Agreement
throughout such year, or, if there has been
a default in the fulfillment of any
such obligation, specifying each such
default known to such officer and the
nature and status thereof.
Section 3.19 Annual Independent Public Accountants' Servicing
Statement; .Financial Statements.
Commencing in the calendar year following the
date of this Agreement, the Servicer shall,
at its own expense, on or before the
10th day (or if not a Business Day, the
immediately preceding Business Day)
preceding the latest day in each year on
which an annual report on Form 10-K may
be timely filed with the Securities and
Exchange Commission (without regard to
any extension), cause a firm of independent
public accountants (who may also
render other services to the Servicer or
any affiliate thereof) which is a
member of the American Institute of
Certified Public Accountants to furnish a
statement to the Trustee to the effect that
such firm has with respect to the
Servicer's overall servicing operations,
examined such operations in accordance
with the requirements of the Uniform Single
Attestation Program for Mortgage
Bankers, stating such firm's conclusions
relating thereto.
Section
3.20 Advances. The Servicer shall determine on or before
each Servicer Advance Date whether it is
required to make a Periodic Advance
pursuant to the definition thereof. If the
Servicer determines it is required to
make a Periodic Advance, it shall, on or
before the Servicer Advance Date,
either (a) deposit into the Servicer
Custodial Account an amount equal to the
Advance and/or (b) make an appropriate
entry in its records relating to the
Servicer Custodial Account that any portion
of the Amount Held for Future
Distribution with respect to a Loan Group
in the Servicer Custodial Account has
been used by the Servicer in discharge of
its obligation to make any such
Periodic Advance on a Mortgage Loan in such
Loan Group. Any funds so applied
shall be replaced by the Servicer by
deposit in the Servicer Custodial Account
no later than the close of business on the
Business Day preceding the next
Servicer Advance Date. The Servicer shall
be entitled to be reimbursed from the
Servicer Custodial Account for all Advances
of its own funds made pursuant to
this Section 3.20 as provided in Section
3.11(a). The obligation to make
Periodic Advances with respect to any
Mortgage Loan shall continue until the
ultimate disposition of the REO Property or
Mortgaged Property relating to such
Mortgage Loan. The Servicer shall inform
the Trustee of the amount of the
Periodic Advance to be made by the Servicer
with respect to each Loan Group on
each Servicer Advance Date no later than
the related Remittance Date.
The Servicer
shall deliver to the Trustee on the related Servicer
Advance Date an Officer's Certificate of a
Servicing Officer indicating the
amount of any proposed Periodic Advance
determined by the Servicer to be a
Nonrecoverable Advance. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary, the Servicer
shall not be required to make any Periodic
Advance or Servicing Advance that
would be a Nonrecoverable Advance.
Section 3.21 Modifications, Waivers, Amendments and Consents.
(a)
Subject to this Section 3.21, the Servicer
may agree to any modification,
waiver, forbearance, or amendment of any
term of any Mortgage Loan without the
consent of the Trustee or any
Certificateholder. All modifications, waivers,
forbearances or amendments of any Mortgage
Loan shall be in writing and shall be
consistent with Customary Servicing
Procedures.
(b) The Servicer shall not agree to enter into, and shall not
enter
into, any modification, waiver (other than
a waiver referred to in Section 3.13,
which waiver, if any, shall be governed by
Section 3.13), forbearance or
amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan
if such modification, waiver,
forbearance, or amendment would:
(i) forgive principal owing under such Mortgage Loan or
permanently
reduce the
interest rate on such Mortgage Loan;
(ii) affect the amount or timing of any related payment of
principal,
interest or other amount payable thereunder;
(iii) in the Servicer's judgment, materially impair the security
for
such
Mortgage Loan or reduce the likelihood of timely payment of
amounts
due
thereon; or
(iv) otherwise constitute a "significant modification" within
the
meaning of
Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(b);
unless, in the case of clauses (ii) through
(iv) above, (A) such Mortgage Loan
is 90 days or more past due or (B) the
Servicer delivers to the Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such
modification, waiver, forbearance or
amendment would not affect the REMIC status
of either of the Upper-Tier REMIC or
the Lower-Tier REMIC. Notwithstanding the
foregoing, no Opinion of Counsel need
be delivered if the purpose of the
modification is to reduce the Monthly Payment
on a Mortgage Loan as a result of a partial
Principal Prepayment provided that
the Mortgage Loan is fully amortized by its
original maturity date. Subject to
Customary Servicing Procedures, the
Servicer may permit a forbearance for a
Mortgage Loan which in the Servicer's
judgment is subject to imminent default.
(c) The Servicer may, as a condition to granting any request by
a
Mortgagor for consent, modification,
waiver, forbearance or amendment, the
granting of which is within the Servicer's
discretion pursuant to the Mortgage
Loan and is permitted by the terms of this
Agreement, require that such
Mortgagor pay to the Servicer, as
additional Servicing Compensation, a
reasonable or customary fee for the
additional services performed in connection
with such request, together with any
related costs and expenses incurred by the
Servicer, which amount shall be retained by
the Servicer as additional Servicing
Compensation.
(d) The Servicer shall notify the Trustee, in writing, of any
modification, waiver, forbearance or
amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan
and the date thereof, and shall deliver to
the Trustee (or, at the direction of
the Trustee, the Custodian) for deposit in
the related Mortgage File, an
original counterpart of the agreement
relating to such modification, waiver,
forbearance or amendment, promptly (and in
any event within ten Business Days)
following the execution thereof; provided,
however, that if any such
modification, waiver, forbearance or
amendment is required by applicable law to
be recorded, the Servicer (i) shall deliver
to the Trustee a copy thereof and
(ii) shall deliver to the Trustee such
document, with evidence of notification
upon receipt thereof from the public
recording office.
Section 3.22 Reports to the Securities and Exchange Commission.
(a)
The Trustee and the Servicer shall
reasonably cooperate with the Depositor in
connection with the Trust's satisfying its
reporting requirements under the
Exchange Act. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Trustee
shall prepare on behalf of the Trust any
monthly Current Reports on Form 8-K
(each, a "Monthly Form 8-K") (or other
comparable form) and Annual Reports on
Form 10-K (each, a "Form 10-K") customary
for similar securities as required by
the Exchange Act and the rules and
regulations of the Securities and Exchange
Commission thereunder, and the Trustee
shall sign (other than any Form 10-K) and
file (via the Securities and Exchange
Commission's Electronic Data Gathering and
Retrieval System) such forms on behalf of
the Trust. The Servicer shall sign any
Form 10-K.
(b) Each Monthly Form 8-K shall be filed by the Trustee within
15
days after each Distribution Date,
including a copy of the monthly statement to
Certificateholders delivered pursuant to
Section 5.04(b) (each, a "Distribution
Date Statement") for such Distribution Date
as an exhibit thereto. Prior to
March 30th of each year (or such earlier
date as may be required by the Exchange
Act and the rules and regulations of the
Securities and Exchange Commission)
commencing in the calendar year following
the date of this Agreement, the
Trustee shall file a Form 10-K, in
substance as required by applicable law or
applicable Securities and Exchange
Commission staff's interpretations. Such Form
10-K shall include as exhibits the
Servicer's annual statement of compliance
described under Section 3.18 and the
accountant's report described under Section
3.19, in each case, to the extent they have
been timely delivered to the
Trustee. If they are not so timely
delivered, the Trustee shall file an amended
Form 10-K including such documents as
exhibits reasonably promptly after they
are delivered to the Trustee. The Trustee
shall have no liability with respect
to any failure to properly prepare or file
such periodic reports resulting from
or relating to the Trustee's inability or
failure to obtain any information not
resulting from its own negligence, willful
misconduct or bad faith. The Form
10-K shall also include a certification in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit O
(the "Certification"), which shall be
signed by a senior officer of the Servicer
in charge of the servicing function. The
Servicer shall deliver the
Certification to the Trustee three (3)
Business Days prior to the latest date on
which the Form 10-K may be timely filed.
The Trustee, the Depositor and the
Servicer shall reasonably cooperate to
enable the Securities and Exchange
Commission requirements with respect to the
Trust to be met in the event that
the Securities and Exchange Commission
issues additional interpretive guidelines
or promulgates rules or regulations, or in
the event of any other change of law
that would require reporting arrangements
or the allocation of responsibilities
with respect thereto, as described in this
Section 3.22, to be conducted or
allocated in a different manner.
(c) Prior to the latest date on which the Form 10-K may be
timely
filed each year, the Trustee shall sign and
deliver to the Servicer a
certification (in the form attached hereto
as Exhibit P) for the benefit of the
Servicer and its officers, directors and
Affiliates (provided, however, that the
Trustee shall not undertake an analysis of
the accountant's report attached as

necessary legal fees and related costs,
judgments and other costs and expenses
arising out of or based upon any inaccuracy
in the certification provided by the
Trustee pursuant to this Section 3.22(c),
any breach of the Trustee's
obligations under this Section 3.22(c) or
the Trustee's negligence, bad faith or
willful misconduct in connection therewith.
If the indemnification provided for
herein is unavailable or insufficient to
hold harmless the Servicer and its
officers, directors and affiliates, then
the Trustee agrees that it shall
contribute to the amount paid or payable by
the Servicer, its officers,
directors or affiliates as a result of the
losses, claims, damages or
liabilities of the Servicer, its officers,
directors or affiliates in such
proportion as is appropriate to reflect the
relative fault of the Servicer and
its officers, directors and affiliates on
the one hand and the Trustee on the
other in connection with a breach of the
Trustee's obligations under this
Section 3.22(c) or the Trustee's
negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in
connection therewith. The Servicer hereby
acknowledges and agrees that the
Depositor and the Trustee are relying on
the Servicer's performance of its
obligations under Sections 3.18 and 3.19 in
order to perform their respective
obligations under this Section 3.22.

unless otherwise requested by the
Depositor, the Trustee shall prepare, execute

any time after the filing of a Form

shall recommence preparing and filing
reports on Form 8-K and 10-K as required
pursuant to this Section and the parties
hereto will again have the obligations
set forth in paragraphs (a) through (d) of
this Section.
