POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT
THIS POOLING AND SERVICING AGREEMENT, dated September 28, 2006, is
hereby
executed by and among BANC OF AMERICA FUNDING CORPORATION, as

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

WITNESSETH THAT:
In consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the
Depositor,
the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator 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. As provided herein, the
Securities
Administrator shall make elections to treat the Trust Estate
(exclusive of the
Yield Maintenance Agreement, the Reserve Fund and the Exchangeable
Certificates
Grantor Trust Account) as three real estate mortgage investment
conduits (the
"Upper-Tier REMIC," the "Intermediate Lower-Tier REMIC" and the
"Lower-Tier
REMIC," respectively, and each a "REMIC"). The Uncertificated
Lower-Tier
Interests will represent the "regular interests" and the Class LR
Interest shall
be the "residual interest" in the Lower-Tier REMIC for purposes of
the REMIC
Provisions. The Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests shall
constitute the assets
of the Intermediate Lower-Tier REMIC. The Uncertificated
Intermediate Lower-Tier
Interests shall constitute the "regular interests" and the Class
ILR Interest
shall be the "residual interest" in the Intermediate Lower-Tier
REMIC. The
Uncertificated Intermediate Lower-Tier Interests shall constitute
the assets of
the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Senior Certificates (other than the Class
1-A-R, Class
30-IO, Class 3-A-1 and Exchangeable Certificates), the Class 3-A-1
Interest, the
Components, the Class M Certificates and the Class B Certificates
are referred
to collectively as the "Upper-Tier Regular Interests" and shall
constitute
"regular interests" in the Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of the
REMIC
Provisions. The Class UR Interest shall be the "residual interest"
in the
Upper-Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class
1-A-R
Certificate shall represent beneficial ownership of the Class LR
Interest, the
Class ILR Interest and the Class UR Interest. The "latest possible
maturity
date" for federal income tax purposes of all interests created
hereby will be
the REMIC Certificate Maturity Date.

and the
Components, together with the minimum denominations and integral

ARTICLE II
CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS
ORIGINAL ISSUANCE OF CERTIFICATES
Section 2.01 Conveyance of Mortgage Loans. (a) The Depositor,
concurrently
with the execution and delivery hereof, hereby sells, transfers,
assigns, sets
over and otherwise conveys to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust
for the benefit
of the Certificateholders, without recourse, all the right, title
and interest
of the Depositor in and to the Mortgage Loans and the related
Mortgage Files,
including all interest and principal received on or with respect to
the Mortgage
Loans (other than payments of principal and interest due and
payable on the
Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date) and the Depositor's
rights under
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including the rights of the
Depositor as
assignee of the Sponsor with respect to the Sponsor's rights under
the Servicing
Agreements. The foregoing sale, transfer, assignment and set over
does not and
is not intended to result in a creation of an assumption by the
Trustee of any
obligation of the Depositor or any other Person in connection with
the Mortgage
Loans or any agreement or instrument relating thereto, except as
specifically
set forth herein. It is agreed and understood by the parties hereto
that it is
not intended that any mortgage loan be included in the Trust that
is a
"High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in any of (i) the New Jersey Home
Ownership Act
effective November 27, 2003, (ii) the New Mexico Home Loan
Protection Act
effective January 1, 2004, (iii) the Massachusetts Predatory Home
Loan Practices
Act effective November 7, 2004 or (iv) the Indiana Home Loan
Practices Act,
effective January 1, 2005.
(b) In connection with such transfer and assignment, the Depositor
has
delivered or caused to be delivered to the Trustee, or a Custodian
on behalf of
the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the
following documents
or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so assigned:
(i) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or facsimile
signature in the following form: "Pay to the order of U.S. Bank
National
Association, as trustee for holders of Banc of America Funding
Corporation
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-6, without
recourse," with
all necessary intervening endorsements showing a complete chain of
endorsement from the originator to the Trustee (each such
endorsement being
sufficient to transfer all right, title and interest of the party
so
endorsing, as
-42-
noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note) and,
in the
case of any Mortgage Loan originated in the State of New York
documented by
a NYCEMA, the NYCEMA, the new Mortgage Note, if applicable, the
consolidated Mortgage Note and the consolidated Mortgage;
(ii) except as provided below and other than with respect to the
Mortgage Loans purchased by the Sponsor from Wells Fargo Bank, the
original
recorded Mortgage with evidence of a recording thereon, or if any
such
Mortgage has not been returned from the applicable recording office
or has
been lost, or if such public recording office retains the original
recorded
Mortgage, a copy of such Mortgage certified by the applicable
Servicer
(which may be part of a blanket certification) as being a true and
correct
copy of the Mortgage;
(iii) subject to the provisos at the end of this paragraph, a duly
executed Assignment of Mortgage to "U.S. Bank National Association,
as
trustee for the holders of Banc of America Funding Corporation
Mortgage
Pass-Through Certificates, Series 2006-6" (which may be included in
a
blanket assignment or assignments), together with, except as
provided below
and other than with respect to the Mortgage Loans purchased by the
Sponsor
from Wells Fargo Bank, originals of all interim recorded
assignments of
such mortgage or a copy of such interim assignment certified by the
applicable Servicer (which may be part of a blanket certification)
as being
a true and complete copy of the original recorded intervening
assignments
of Mortgage (each such assignment, when duly and validly completed,
to be
in recordable form and sufficient to effect the assignment of and
transfer
to the assignee thereof, under the Mortgage to which the assignment
relates); provided that, if the related Mortgage has not been
returned from
the applicable public recording office, such Assignment of Mortgage
may
exclude the information to be provided by the recording office; and
provided, further, if the related Mortgage has been recorded in the
name of
Mortgage Electronic Registration Systems, Inc. ("MERS") or its
designee, no
Assignment of Mortgage in favor of the Trustee will be required to
be
prepared or delivered and instead, the Master Servicer shall
enforce the
obligations of the applicable Servicer to take all actions as are
necessary
to cause the Trust to be shown as the owner of the related Mortgage
Loan on
the records of MERS for purposes of the system of recording
transfers of
beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS;
(iv) the originals of all assumption, modification, consolidation
or
extension agreements, if any, with evidence of recording thereon,
if any;
(v) other than with respect to the Mortgage Loans purchased by the
Sponsor from Wells Fargo Bank, any of (A) the original or duplicate
original mortgagee title insurance policy and all riders thereto,
(B) a
title search showing no lien (other than standard exceptions) on
the
Mortgaged Property senior to the lien of the Mortgage or (C) an
opinion of
counsel of the type customarily rendered in the applicable
jurisdiction in
lieu of a title insurance policy;
(vi) the original of any guarantee executed in connection with the
Mortgage Note;
-43-
(vii) for each Mortgage Loan, if any, which is secured by a
residential long-term lease, a copy of the lease with evidence of
recording
indicated thereon, or, if the lease is in the process of being
recorded, a
photocopy of the lease, certified by an officer of the respective
prior
owner of such Mortgage Loan or by the applicable title insurance
company,
closing/settlement/escrow agent or company or closing attorney to
be a true
and correct copy of the lease transmitted for recordation;
(viii) the original of any security agreement, chattel mortgage or
equivalent document executed in connection with the Mortgage; and
(ix) for each Mortgage Loan secured by Cooperative Stock (other
than
with respect to any Mortgage Loan secured by Cooperative Stock
purchased by
the Sponsor from Wells Fargo Bank), the originals of the following
documents or instruments:
(A) The Cooperative Stock Certificate;
(B) The stock power executed in blank;
(C) The executed Cooperative Lease;
(D) The executed Recognition Agreement;
(E) The executed assignment of Recognition Agreement, if any;
(F) The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence of
recording thereon; and
(G) Executed UCC-3 financing statements or other appropriate UCC
financing statements required by state law, evidencing a complete
and
unbroken line from the mortgagee to the Trustee with evidence of
recording thereon (or in a form suitable for recordation).
provided, however, that on the Closing Date, with respect to item
(iii), if an
Assignment of Mortgage is required to be recorded as set forth
below, the
Depositor has delivered to the Trustee or a Custodian on behalf of
the Trustee,
as the case may be, a copy of such Assignment of Mortgage in blank
rather than
in the name of the Trustee and has caused the applicable Servicer
to retain the
completed Assignment of Mortgage for recording as described below,
unless such
Mortgage has been recorded in the name of MERS or its designee. In
addition, if
the Depositor is unable to deliver or cause the delivery of any
original
Mortgage Note due to the loss of such original Mortgage Note, the
Depositor may
deliver a copy of such Mortgage Note, together with a lost note
affidavit, and
shall thereby be deemed to have satisfied the document delivery
requirements of
this Section 2.01(b).
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), if
applicable,
satisfying the requirements of clause (ii), (iii), (iv) or (v)
above,
respectively, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof
because such
document or
-44-
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
applicable, has not been delivered to any of the related Servicer,
the Sponsor
or the Depositor, as applicable, by the applicable title insurer,
if any, in the
case of clause (v) above, the Depositor shall promptly deliver or
cause to be
delivered to the Trustee or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee,
as the case
may be, 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 (1) 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 an Officer's Certificate to
such effect
to the Trustee. The Depositor shall forward or cause to be
forwarded to the
Trustee or a Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, as the case may
be, (1) from
time to time additional original documents evidencing an assumption
or
modification of a Mortgage Loan and (2) any other documents
required to be
delivered by the Depositor, or the applicable Servicer to the
Trustee or a
Custodian on the Trustee's behalf, as the case may be. In the event
that the
original Mortgage is not delivered and in connection with the
payment in full of
the related Mortgage Loan the public recording office requires the
presentation
of a "lost instruments affidavit and indemnity" or any equivalent
document,
because only a copy of the Mortgage can be delivered with the
instrument of
satisfaction or reconveyance, the Depositor shall prepare, execute
and deliver
or cause to be prepared, executed and delivered, on behalf of the
Trust, such a
document to the public recording office.
Upon discovery by the Depositor or notice from Wells Fargo Bank,
the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator or Trustee that a Document
Transfer Event
has occurred, the Depositor shall, with respect to Mortgage Loans
purchased by
the Sponsor from Wells Fargo Bank, deliver or cause to be delivered
to the
Trustee or a Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, within 60 days
copies (which
may be in electronic form mutually agreed upon by the Depositor and
the Trustee
or such Custodian) of the following additional documents or
instruments to the
Mortgage File with respect to each such Mortgage Loan; provided,
however, that
originals of such documents or instruments shall be delivered to
the Trustee or
a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, as applicable, if originals
are required
under the law in which the related Mortgaged Property is located in
order to
exercise all remedies available to the Trust under applicable law
following
default by the related Mortgagor:
(1) other than if the related Mortgage has been recorded in the
name
of MERS or its designee, originals of all interim recorded
assignments of such
mortgage or a copy of such interim assignments certified by Wells
Fargo Bank
(which may be part of a blanket certification) as being a true and
complete copy
of the original recorded intervening assignments of Mortgage (each
such
assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be in recordable
form and
sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee
thereof,
under the Mortgage to which the assignment relates);
(2) the original or a certified copy of the lender's title
insurance
policy;
-45-
(3) the original Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon, and
the
original recorded power of attorney, if the Mortgage was executed
pursuant to a
power of attorney, with evidence of recording thereon or, if such
Mortgage or
power of attorney has been submitted for recording but has not been
returned
from the applicable public recording office, has been lost or is
not otherwise
available, a copy of such Mortgage or power of attorney, as the
case may be,
certified to be a true and complete copy of the original submitted
for
recording; and
(4) for each Mortgage Loan secured by Cooperative Stock, the
originals
of the following documents or instruments:
(A) The Cooperative Stock Certificate;
(B) The stock power executed in blank;
(C) The executed Cooperative Lease;
(D) The executed Recognition Agreement;
(E) The executed assignment of Recognition Agreement, if any;
(F) The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence of
recording thereon; and
(G) Executed UCC-3 financing statements or other appropriate UCC
financing statements required by state law, evidencing a complete
and
unbroken line from the mortgagee to the Trustee with evidence of
recording thereon (or in a form suitable for recordation).
With respect to each Mortgage Loan, as promptly as practicable
subsequent
to such transfer and assignment, the Master Servicer shall (except
for any
Mortgage which has been recorded in the name of MERS or its
designee) enforce
the obligations of the related Servicer pursuant to the related
Servicing
Agreement to (I) cause each Assignment of Mortgage to be in proper
form for
recording in the appropriate public office for real property
records within the
time period required in the applicable Servicing Agreement and (II)
at the
Depositor's expense, cause to be delivered for recording in the
appropriate
public office for real property records the Assignments of the
Mortgages to the
Trustee, except that, with respect to any Assignment of a Mortgage
as to which
the related Servicer has not received the information required to
prepare such
assignment in recordable form, such Servicer's obligation to do so
and to
deliver the same for such recording shall be as soon as practicable
after
receipt of such information and in accordance with the applicable
Servicing
Agreement.
No recording of an Assignment of Mortgage will be required in a
state if
either (i) the Depositor furnishes to the Trustee and the
Securities
Administrator an unqualified Opinion of Counsel reasonably
acceptable to the
Trustee and the Securities Administrator to the effect that
recordation of such
assignment is not necessary under applicable state law to preserve
the Trustee's
interest in the related Mortgage Loan against the claim of any
subsequent
transferee of such Mortgage Loan or any successor to, or creditor
of, the
Depositor or the originator of such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the
recordation of an
Assignment of Mortgage in such state is not required
-46-
by either Rating Agency in order to obtain the initial ratings on
the
Certificates on the Closing Date. Exhibit J attached hereto sets
forth the list
of all states where recordation is required by any Rating Agency to
obtain the
initial ratings of the Certificates. The Securities Administrator
and the
Trustee may rely and shall be protected in relying upon the
information
contained in such Exhibit J.
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 a Custodian on the Trustee's behalf, will cause the
applicable
Servicer to remit to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Master
Servicer
Custodial Account the portion of such payment that is required to
be deposited
in the such account pursuant to Section 3.09.
Section 2.02 Acceptance by the Trustee or Custodian of the Mortgage
Loans.
Subject to the provisions of the following paragraph, the Trustee
declares that
it, or a Custodian as its agent, will hold the documents referred
to in Section
2.01 and the other documents delivered to it or a Custodian as its
agent, as the
case may be, constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it will hold
such other
assets as are included in the Trust Estate delivered to it, in
trust for the
exclusive use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders. Upon
execution and delivery of this document, the Trustee shall deliver
or cause a
Custodian to deliver to the Depositor and the Master Servicer a
certification in
the form attached hereto as Exhibit K (the "Initial Certification")
to the
effect that, except as may be specified in a list of exceptions
attached
thereto, such Person 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 a Custodian, on behalf of the
Trustee, to review,
the Mortgage Files in such Person's possession, and shall deliver
to the
Depositor and the Master Servicer a certification in the form
attached hereto as
Exhibit L (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). In
performing any such review, the Trustee or a Custodian, as the case
may be, may
conclusively rely on the purported genuineness of any such document
and any
signature thereon.
If, in the course of such review, the Trustee, or a Custodian on
its
behalf, finds any document constituting a part of a Mortgage File
which does not
meet the requirements of Section 2.01 or is omitted from such
Mortgage File or
if the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, a Custodian or
the
Securities Administrator discovers a breach by a Servicer, the
Sponsor or the
Depositor of any representation, warranty or covenant under the
Servicing
Agreements, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement,
as the case
may be, in respect of any Mortgage Loan and such breach materially
adversely
affects the interest of the Certificateholders in the related
Mortgage Loan
(provided that any such breach that causes the Mortgage Loan not to
be a
"qualified mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of
the Code shall
be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests of the
Certificateholders), then such party shall promptly so notify the
Master
Servicer, the Sponsor, such Servicer, the Securities Administrator,
the Trustee
and the Depositor of such failure to meet the requirements of
Section 2.01 or of
such breach and request that the applicable Servicer, the Sponsor
or the
Depositor, as
-47-
applicable, deliver such missing documentation or cure such defect
or breach
within 90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of any
such failure to
meet the requirements of Section 2.01 or of such breach. If the
Trustee receives
written notice that the Depositor, the Sponsor or the applicable
Servicer, as
the case may be, has not delivered such missing document or cured
such defect or
breach in all material respects during such period, the Trustee, on
behalf of
the Trust, shall enforce the applicable Servicer's, Sponsor's or
Depositor's
obligation, as the case may be, under the applicable Servicing
Agreement, the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Agreement, as the case may
be, and
cause the applicable Servicer, the Sponsor or the Depositor, as the
case may be,
to either (a) other than in the case of Washington Mutual,
substitute for the
related Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which
substitution shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth
below or (b)
purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust at the Purchase Price
for such
Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that in no event shall such a
substitution
occur more than two years from the Closing Date; provided, further,
that such
substitution or repurchase must occur within 90 days of when such
defect was
discovered if such defect will cause the Mortgage Loan not to be a
"qualified
mortgage" within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code.
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no
substitution
pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be made more than 90 days after
the Closing
Date unless the Depositor delivers to the Securities Administrator
an Opinion of
Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of
the Trustee,
the Securities Administrator or the Trust Estate, addressed to the
Trustee and
the Securities Administrator, to the effect that such substitution
will not (i)
result in the imposition of the tax on "prohibited transactions" on
any REMIC
created hereunder or contributions after the Start-up Day, as
defined in
Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively or (ii)
cause any
REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any
Certificates are outstanding.
It is understood that the scope of the Trustee's review (or a
Custodian's
review on its behalf) 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 applicable Mortgage
Loans
identified in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule based solely upon
the review of
items (i) and (xi) in the definition of Mortgage Loan Schedule.
Neither the
Trustee nor any 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.
If the Trustee receives written notice from the Depositor, the
Master
Servicer or the Securities Administrator of a breach of any
representation or
warranty of a related Servicer or the Sponsor, the Trustee, on
behalf of the
Trust, shall enforce the rights of the Trust under the Servicing
Agreements, the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and this Agreement for the benefit
of the
Certificateholders. If the Trustee receives written notice from the
Depositor,
the Master Servicer or the Securities Administrator of a breach of
the
representations or warranties with respect to the Mortgage Loans
set forth in a
Servicing Agreement, the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, shall
enforce the
right of the Trust to be indemnified for such breach of
representation or
warranty. In addition, if the Trustee receives written notice from
the
Depositor, the Master
-48-
Servicer or the Securities Administrator of a breach of a
representation with
respect to a Mortgage Loan set forth in clauses (k) or (o) of
paragraph 3 of the
Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that occurs as a result of a
violation of an
applicable predatory or abusive lending law, the Trustee, on behalf
of the
Trust, shall enforce the right of the Trust to reimbursement by the
Sponsor for
all costs or damages incurred by the Trust as a result of the
violation of such
law (such amount, the "Reimbursement Amount"), but in the case of a
breach of a
representation set forth in clauses (k) or (o) of paragraph 3 of
the Mortgage
Loan Purchase Agreement, only to the extent the applicable Servicer
does not so
reimburse the Trust. It is understood and agreed that, except for
any
indemnification provided in the Servicing Agreements and the
payment of any
Reimbursement Amount, the obligation of a Servicer, the Sponsor or
the Depositor
to cure or to repurchase (or, other than in the case of Washington
Mutual, to
substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is
missing, a material
defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a
breach has
occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against
a Servicer,
the Sponsor or the Depositor in respect of such omission, defect or
breach
available to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust and the
Certificateholders.
With respect to the representations and warranties relating to the
Mortgage
Loans set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement that are
made to the
best of the Sponsor's knowledge or as to which the Sponsor had no
knowledge, if
it is discovered by the Depositor, the Master Servicer or the
Trustee that the
substance of such representation or warranty is inaccurate and such
inaccuracy
materially and adversely affects the interest of the
Certificateholders in the
related Mortgage Loan then, notwithstanding the Sponsor's lack of
knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation or warranty being
inaccurate at
the time the representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy
shall be
deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties
relating to the Mortgage Loans set forth in the Mortgage Loan
Purchase Agreement
shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee or a
Custodian on
the Trustee's behalf and shall inure to the benefit of the
Certificateholders
notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or
assignment. It is
understood and agreed that the obligations of the Sponsor set forth
in this
Section 2.02 to cure, substitute for or repurchase a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to
the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement constitute the sole remedies
available to
the Certificateholders and to the Trustee on their behalf
respecting a breach of
the representations and warranties contained in the Mortgage Loan
Purchase
Agreement.
The representations and warranties of each Servicer with respect to
the
applicable Mortgage Loans in the related Servicing Agreement, which
have been
assigned to the Trustee hereunder, were made as of the date
specified in such
Servicing Agreement. To the extent that any fact, condition or
event with
respect to a Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of both (i) a
representation or
warranty of a Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement and
(ii) a
representation or warranty of the Sponsor under the Mortgage Loan
Purchase
Agreement, the only right or remedy of the Trustee or of any
Certificateholder
shall be the Trustee's right, on behalf of the Trust, to enforce
the obligations
of the applicable Servicer under any applicable representation or
warranty made
by it. It is hereby acknowledged that the Sponsor shall have no
obligation or
liability with respect to any breach of a representation or
warranty made by it
with respect to the Mortgage Loans if the fact, condition or event
constituting
such breach also
-49-
constitutes a breach of a representation or warranty made by the
applicable
Servicer in the applicable Servicing Agreement, without regard to
whether such
Servicer fulfills its contractual obligations in respect of such
representation
or warranty. It is hereby further acknowledged that the Depositor
shall have no
obligation or liability with respect to any breach of any
representation or
warranty with respect to the Mortgage Loans (except as set forth in
Section
2.04) under any circumstances.
With respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan the applicable
Servicer, the
Sponsor or the Depositor, as the case may be, shall deliver to the
Trustee (or a
Custodian on behalf of the Trustee), for the benefit of the
Certificateholders,
the documents and agreements required by Section 2.01, with the
Mortgage Note
endorsed and the Mortgage assigned as required by Section 2.01. No
substitution
is permitted to be made in any calendar month after the
Determination Date for
such month. Monthly Payments due with respect to any such
Substitute Mortgage
Loan in the month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust
Estate. For the
month of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will
include the
Monthly Payment due for such month on any Defective Mortgage Loan
for which the
Depositor, the Sponsor or a Servicer (other than Washington Mutual)
has
substituted a Substitute Mortgage Loan.
The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the
benefit
of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of each Mortgage
Loan that has
become a Defective Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the
Substitute Mortgage
Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended
Mortgage Loan
Schedule to the Securities Administrator, the Trustee and any
Custodian. Upon
such substitution of a Mortgage Loan by the Depositor, the Sponsor
or a Servicer
(other than Washington Mutual), each Substitute Mortgage Loan shall
be subject
to the terms of this Agreement in all respects and the Depositor or
the Sponsor,
as the case may be, shall be deemed to have made to the Trustee
with respect to
such Substitute Mortgage Loan, as of the date of substitution,
similar
representations and warranties to those made with respect to the
Defective
Mortgage Loan and the applicable Servicer shall be deemed to have
made to the
Trustee with respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan, as of the
date of
substitution, the mortgage loan representations and warranties made
pursuant to
the applicable Servicing Agreement. Upon any such substitution and
the deposit
to the Master Servicer Custodial Account of any required
Substitution Adjustment
Amount (as described in the next paragraph) and receipt by the
Trustee of a
Request for Release, the Trustee shall release, or shall direct a
Custodian to
release, the Mortgage File relating to such Defective Mortgage Loan
to
applicable Person and shall execute and deliver at such Person's
direction such
instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by such Person,
without recourse,
as shall be necessary to vest title in such Person 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, the Sponsor or a Servicer
(other than
Washington Mutual) 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 substituted
by such
Person 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 a
Loan Group
substituted by such Person (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
-50-
to such Defective Mortgage Loans shall be remitted by such Person
to the Master
Servicer for deposit to the Master Servicer Custodial Account on or
before the
18th day of 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 a Custodian to retain, as
applicable, possession and custody of each Mortgage File in
accordance with and
subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein. The Master
Servicer shall
cause to be promptly delivered to the Trustee or a Custodian on
behalf of the
Trustee, as the case may be, 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 Master
Servicer's
possession from time to time.
Neither the Trustee nor any Custodian shall be under any 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 or a Custodian on its behalf, as
applicable,
shall only be responsible for confirming that a title search or

counsel has been provided for such Mortgage Loan.
Section 2.03 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the
Master
Servicer. The Master Servicer hereby makes the following
representations and
warranties to the Depositor, the Securities Administrator and the
Trustee, as of
the Closing Date:
(i) The Master Servicer is a corporation duly organized and validly
existing in good standing under the laws of the State of New York
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 securing a Mortgage Loan is located if the laws
of such
state require licensing or qualification in order to conduct
business of
the type conducted by the Master Servicer. The Master 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 Master 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 Master 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 the rights of creditors 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 Master
Servicer to
make this Agreement valid and binding upon the Master 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 Master 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 Master
Servicer and
will not result in the breach of any term or provision of the
charter or
by-laws of the Master 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 Master
Servicer or its
property is subject, or result in the violation of any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment or decree to which the Master Servicer
or its
property is subject.
(iv) There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending
or,
to the best knowledge of the Master Servicer, threatened against
the Master
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 Master Servicer, or in any
material
impairment of the right or ability of the Master Servicer to carry
on its
business substantially as now conducted or which would draw 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 Master
Servicer
contemplated herein, or which would materially impair the ability
of the
Master 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 or
a Custodian
on the Trustee's behalf and shall inure to 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) 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.
(ii) As of the Closing Date, the Depositor has transferred all
right,
title and interest in the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee on behalf
of the
Trust.
-52-
(iii) As of the Closing Date, the Depositor has not transferred the
Mortgage Loans to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust with any
intent to
hinder, delay or defraud any of its creditors.
(iv) Each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage" within the
meaning
of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section
1.860G-2.
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 related 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 Master Servicer, the
Securities
Administrator or the Trustee 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;
provided that a
breach of the representation that each Mortgage Loan is 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 Purchase 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 relates to the
representation that
each Mortgage Loan is 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. The Purchase Price of any
repurchase described
in this paragraph and the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any,
shall be
remitted to the Master Servicer for deposit to the Master 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 Trust and the
Trustee on
behalf of Certificateholders, and such obligation shall survive
until
termination of the Trust hereunder.

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND MASTER SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Master Servicing of the Mortgage Loans. For and on
behalf of
the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall supervise,
monitor and oversee
the obligations of the Servicers to service and administer their
respective
Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of the applicable
Servicing
Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any and all
things which
it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master
servicing and
administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master
Servicer
shall act in a manner consistent with this Agreement, subject to
the prior
sentence, and with Customary Servicing Procedures. Furthermore, the
Master
Servicer shall oversee and consult with each Servicer as necessary
from
time-to-time to carry out the Master Servicer's obligations
hereunder, shall
receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other
data provided to
the Master Servicer by each Servicer and shall cause each Servicer
to perform
and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be
performed or
observed by such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement.
The Master
Servicer shall independently and separately monitor each Servicer's
servicing
activities with respect to each related Mortgage Loan, reconcile
the results of
such monitoring with such information provided in the previous
sentence on a
monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the
Servicers' and the
Master Servicer's records, and based on such reconciled and
corrected
information, prepare the Master Servicer's Certificate and any
other information
and statements required hereunder. The Master Servicer shall
reconcile the
results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual remittances
of the
Servicers to the Master Servicer Custodial Account pursuant to the
applicable
Servicing Agreements.
Continuously from the date hereof until the termination of the
Trust, the
Master Servicer shall enforce the obligations of the Servicers to
collect all
payments due under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans
when the same
shall become due and payable to the extent such procedures shall be
consistent
with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
The relationship of the Master Servicer (and of any successor to
the Master
Servicer as master servicer under this Agreement) to the Trustee
and the
Securities Administrator under this Agreement is intended by the
parties to be
that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer,
partner or
agent.
-55-
Section 3.02 Monitoring of Servicers. (a) The Master Servicer shall
be
responsible for reporting to the Trustee, the Securities
Administrator and the
Depositor the compliance by each Servicer with its duties under the
related
Servicing Agreement. In the review of each Servicer's activities,
the Master
Servicer may rely upon an officer's certificate of the Servicer
with regard to
such Servicer's compliance with the terms of its Servicing
Agreement. In the
event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment, determines that a
Servicer
should be terminated in accordance with its Servicing Agreement, or
that a
notice should be sent pursuant to such Servicing Agreement with
respect to the
occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute grounds
for such
termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the
Securities
Administrator and the Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall
issue such
notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate.
(b) The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trust and the
Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer
under the
related Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that a
Servicer fails to
perform its obligations in accordance with the related Servicing
Agreement,
subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and
obligations of such
Servicer thereunder and act as successor Servicer of the related
Mortgage Loans
under the applicable Servicing Agreement or cause the Trustee to
enter into a
new Servicing Agreement with a successor Servicer selected by the
Master
Servicer; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by
the parties
hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90
days) before
the actual servicing functions can be fully transferred to such
successor
Servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the
legal prosecution
of claims, termination of Servicing Agreements and the pursuit of
other
appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such
an extent
and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business
judgment,
would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The
Master
Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own
expense, and shall
be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting
from such
enforcement to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all
amounts due in
respect of the related Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific
recovery of costs,
expenses or attorneys fees against the party whom such enforcement
is directed,
provided that the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as applicable,
shall not be
required to prosecute or defend any legal action except to the
extent that the
Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall have received
reasonable
indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action.
(c) To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Master
Servicer or the
Trustee, as applicable, related to any termination of a Servicer,
appointment of
a successor Servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by
the Master
Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, with respect to any
Servicing Agreement
(including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses
and all due
diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the
potential
termination of the Servicer as a result of an event of default by
such Servicer
under the related Servicing Agreement and (ii) all costs and
expenses associated
with the complete transfer of servicing, including all servicing
files and all
servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of
such servicing
data as may be required by the successor Servicer to correct any
errors or
insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the
successor
Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
related Servicing
Agreement) are not fully and timely reimbursed by the terminated
Servicer, the
Master Servicer or the Trustee, as applicable, shall be entitled to
reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Master
-56-
Servicer Custodial Account; provided that if such servicing
transfer costs are
ultimately reimbursed by the terminated Servicer, then the Master
Servicer or
the Trustee, as applicable, shall remit such amounts that are
reimbursed by the
terminated Servicer to the Master Servicer Custodial Account.
(d) The Master Servicer shall require each Servicer to comply with
the
remittance requirements and other obligations set forth in the
related Servicing
Agreement.
(e) If the Master Servicer acts as Servicer, it will not assume
liability
for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any,
that it
replaces.
(f) Subject to the conditions set forth in this Section 3.02(f),
the Master
Servicer is permitted to utilize one or more Subcontractors to
perform certain
of its obligations hereunder. The Master Servicer shall promptly
upon request
provide to the Depositor a written description (in form and
substance
satisfactory to the Depositor) of the role and function of each
Subcontractor
utilized by the Master Servicer, specifying (i) the identity of
each such
Subcontractor that is a Servicing Function Participant and (ii)
which elements
of the Servicing Criteria will be addressed in Assessments of
Compliance
provided by each Servicing Function Participant. As a condition to
the
utilization by the Master Servicer of any Servicing Function
Participant, the
Master Servicer shall cause any such Servicing Function Participant
for the
benefit of the Depositor to comply with the provisions of Section
3.21 of this
Agreement to the same extent as if such Servicing Function
Participant were the
Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall be responsible for
obtaining from
each such Servicing Function Participant and delivering to the
applicable
Persons any Assessment of Compliance and related Attestation Report
required to
be delivered by such Servicing Function Participant under Section
3.21, in each
case as and when required to be delivered.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Master Servicer engages a
Subcontractor in connection with the performance of any of its
duties under this
Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be responsible for determining
whether such
Subcontractor is an Additional Servicer.
The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Depositor, the Sponsor, the
Trustee, the Custodian and the Securities Administrator and any of
their
directors, officers, employees or agents and hold them harmless
against any and
all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
reasonable and
necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other
costs, fees and
expenses that any of them may sustain in any way related to a
breach of the
Master Servicer's obligation set forth in the preceding paragraph
or the failure
of the Master Servicer to perform any of its obligations under this
Section
3.02(f), Section 3.20, Section 3.21 or Section 3.22.
Section 3.03 Fidelity Bond; Errors and Omissions Insurance. The
Master
Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity
bond and an
errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage on all
officers,
employees or other persons involved in the performance of its
obligations as
Master Servicer hereunder. These policies must insure the Master
Servicer
against losses resulting from dishonest or fraudulent acts
committed by the
Master Servicer's personnel, any employees of outside firms that
provide data
processing services for the Master Servicer, and temporary contract
employees or
student interns. No
-57-
provision of this Section 3.03 requiring such fidelity bond and
errors and
omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Master Servicer
from its
duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum
coverage
under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to
the
corresponding amounts required by Fannie Mae in the Fannie Mae
Servicing Guide
or by Freddie Mac in the Freddie Mac Sellers' & Servicers'
Guide, as amended or
restated from time to time, or in an amount as may be permitted to
the Master
Servicer by express waiver of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. In the
event that any
such policy or bond ceases to be in effect, the Master Servicer
shall obtain a
comparable replacement policy or bond from an insurer or issuer,
meeting the
requirements set forth above as of the date of such replacement.
Section 3.04 Access to Certain Documentation. The Master Servicer
shall
provide, and the Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer to
provide in
accordance with the related Servicing Agreement, to the OCC, the
OTS, the FDIC
and to comparable regulatory authorities supervising Holders of
Certificates and
the examiners and supervisory agents of the OCC, the OTS, the FDIC
and such
other authorities, access to the documentation required by
applicable
regulations of the OCC, the OTS, the FDIC and such other
authorities with
respect to the Mortgage Loans. Such access shall be afforded
without charge, but
only upon reasonable and prior written request and during normal
business hours
at the offices designated by the Master Servicer and the related
Servicer. In
fulfilling such request for access, the Master Servicer shall not
be responsible
to determine the sufficiency of any information provided by such
Servicer.
Nothing in this Section 3.04 shall limit the obligation of the
Master Servicer
and the related Servicer to observe any applicable law and the
failure of the
Master Servicer or the related Servicer to provide access as
provided in this
Section 3.04 as a result of such obligation shall not constitute a
breach of
this Section 3.04.
Section 3.05 Maintenance of Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy;
Claims. (a)
The Master Servicer shall not take, or permit any Servicer (to the
extent such
action is prohibited under the applicable Servicing Agreement) to
take, any
action that would result in noncoverage under any applicable
Primary Mortgage
Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the
Master Servicer
or such Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master
Servicer shall
use its best reasonable efforts to cause each Servicer (to the
extent required
under the related Servicing Agreement) to keep in force and effect
(to the
extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain
such
insurance), primary mortgage insurance applicable to each Mortgage
Loan in
accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the related
Servicing
Agreement, as applicable. The Master Servicer shall not, and shall
not permit
any Servicer (to the extent required under the related Servicing
Agreement) to,
cancel or refuse to renew any such Primary Mortgage Insurance
Policy that is in
effect at the date of the initial issuance of the Mortgage Note and
is required
to be kept in force hereunder except in accordance with the
provisions of this
Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement, as applicable.
(b) The Master Servicer agrees to present, or to cause each
Servicer (to
the extent required under the related Servicing Agreement) to
present, on behalf
of the Trust, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims to the
insurer
under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and, in this regard,
to take such
reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under
any Primary
Mortgage Insurance Policies respecting defaulted Mortgage Loans.
Pursuant to
Sections 3.08 and 3.09, any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer or any
Servicer under any
-58-
Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the
Master Servicer
Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.11.
Section 3.06 Rights of the Depositor, the Securities Administrator
and the
Trustee in Respect of the Master Servicer. The Depositor may, but
is not
obligated to, enforce the obligations of the Master Servicer
hereunder and may,
but is not obligated to, perform, or cause a designee to perform,
any defaulted
obligation of the Master Servicer hereunder and in connection with
any such
defaulted obligation to exercise the related rights of the Master
Servicer
hereunder; provided that the Master Servicer shall not be relieved
of any of its
obligations hereunder by virtue of such performance by the
Depositor or its
designee. None of the Securities Administrator, the Trustee or the
Depositor
shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or
failure to act by
the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator, the Trustee
or the
Depositor shall not be obligated to supervise the performance of
the Master
Servicer hereunder or otherwise.
Section 3.07 Trustee to Act as Master Servicer. (a) In the event
the Master
Servicer or any successor master servicer shall for any reason no
longer be the
Master Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of
Default), the
Trustee as trustee hereunder shall within 90 days of such time,
assume, if it so
elects, or shall appoint a successor Master Servicer to assume, all
of the
rights and obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder arising
thereafter. Any
such assumption shall be subject to Sections 7.02 and 8.05.
(b) The predecessor Master Servicer at its expense shall, upon
request of
the Trustee, deliver to the assuming party all master servicing
documents and
records and an accounting of amounts collected or held by the
Master Servicer,
and shall transfer control of the Master Servicer Custodial Account
and any
investment accounts to the successor Master Servicer, and otherwise
use its best
efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of its rights
and duties as
Master Servicer hereunder to the assuming party. The Trustee shall
be entitled
to be reimbursed from the predecessor Master Servicer (or the Trust
if the
predecessor Master Servicer is unable to fulfill such obligations)
for all
Master Servicing Transfer Costs.
Section 3.08 Servicer Custodial Accounts and Escrow Accounts. (a)
The
Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of each Servicer to
establish and
maintain a Servicer Custodial Account in accordance with the
applicable
Servicing Agreement, with records to be kept with respect thereto
on a loan by
loan basis, into which accounts shall be deposited within 48 hours
(or as of
such other time specified in the related Servicing Agreement) of
receipt all
collections of principal and interest on any Mortgage Loan and all
collections
with respect to any REO Property received by a Servicer, including
Principal
Prepayments, Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, Recoveries
and Advances
made from the Servicer's own funds (less servicing compensation as
permitted by
the applicable Servicing Agreement in the case of any Servicer) and
all other
amounts to be deposited in the Servicer Custodial Account. The
Master Servicer
is hereby authorized to make withdrawals from and deposits to the
related
Servicer Custodial Account for purposes required or permitted by
this Agreement.
(b) The Master Servicer shall also enforce the obligation of each
Servicer
to establish and maintain a Buy-Down Account in accordance with the
applicable
Servicing Agreement, with records to be kept with respect thereto
on a Mortgage
Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, into which
-59-
accounts any Buy-Down Funds shall be deposited within 48 hours (or
as of such
other time specified in the related Servicing Agreement) of receipt
thereof. The
Master Servicer is hereby authorized to make withdrawals from and
deposits to
the related Buy-Down Account for purposes required or permitted by
this
Agreement. In addition, the Master Servicer shall enforce the
obligation of each
Servicer to withdraw from the Buy-Down Account and deposit in
immediately
available funds in the Servicer Custodial Account an amount which,
when added to
such Mortgagor's payment, will equal the full monthly payment due
under the
related Mortgage Note.
(c) To the extent required by the related Servicing Agreement and
by the
related Mortgage Note and not violative of current law, the Master
Servicer
shall enforce the obligation of each Servicer to establish and
maintain one or
more escrow accounts (for each Servicer, collectively, the "Escrow
Account") and
deposit and retain therein all collections from the Mortgagors (or
Advances by
such Servicer) for the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard
insurance premiums
or comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing
herein shall
require the Master Servicer to compel a Servicer to establish an
Escrow Account
in violation of applicable law.
Section 3.09 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Master Servicer
Custodial Account; Certificate Account; Reserve Fund; and Yield
Maintenance
Agreement. (a) Continuously from the date hereof until the
principal and
interest on all Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the Master
Servicer shall
enforce the obligations of the Servicers to collect all payments
due under the
terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall
become due and
payable to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with the
applicable
Servicing Agreement.
(b) The Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain the
Certificate Account, which shall be deemed to consist of six
sub-accounts and

to
Certificateholders.
(c) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain the Master
Servicer
Custodial Account, which shall be an Eligible Account. The Master
Servicer
shall, promptly upon receipt, deposit in the Master Servicer
Custodial Account
and retain therein any amounts which are required to be deposited
in the Master
Servicer Custodial Account by the Master Servicer.
(d) (i) The Securities Administrator shall establish and maintain
the
Reserve Fund, held in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the
Class 3-A-1
Certificates. The Securities Administrator shall deposit in the
Reserve Fund on
the date received by it the related Yield Maintenance Agreement
Payment, if any,
received from the Counterparty for the related Distribution Date.
Funds on
deposit in the Reserve Fund shall remain uninvested. On each
Distribution Date,
the Securities Administrator shall withdraw from the Reserve Fund
the Yield
Maintenance Agreement Payment, if any, received in respect of such
Distribution
Date and shall distribute such amount to the Class 3-A-1
Certificates.
-60-
(ii) The Securities Administrator and the Trustee shall account for
the Reserve Fund and the Yield Maintenance Agreement and the rights
with
respect thereto as, for federal income tax purposes, a "grantor
trust" as
described in Subpart E of Part I of Subchapter J of the Code and
Treasury
Regulation Section 301.7701-4(c)(2) and not as assets of any REMIC
created
pursuant to this Agreement. The Securities Administrator shall
apply for a
taxpayer identification number on IRS Form SS-4 and any similarly
required
state or local forms or using any other acceptable method for all
tax
entities. The Securities Administrator shall furnish or caused to
be
furnished to the Holders of the Class 3-A-1 Certificates and shall
file or
cause to be filed IRS Form 1041 and such other forms as may be
required by
the Code and regulations promulgated thereunder and any similar
state or
local laws with respect to the allocable shares of income and
expenses with
respect to the assets of the Reserve Fund Grantor Trust at the time
and in
the manner required by the Code and regulations promulgated
thereunder and
any similar state or local laws. The beneficial owners of the Yield
Maintenance Agreement and the Reserve Fund are the Holders of the
Class
3-A-1 Certificates. The Reserve Fund is an "outside reserve fund"
within
the meaning of Treasury Regulations Section 1.860G-2(h) that is
owned by
the holders of the Class 3-A-1 Certificates.
(iii) Any amounts in the Reserve Fund paid by the Securities
Administrator pursuant to this Section 3.09(d) to the Class 3-A-1
Certificates shall be accounted for by the Securities Administrator
as
amounts paid to the Class 3-A-1 Certificates from, for federal
income tax
purposes, a grantor trust as described in Subpart E of Part I of
Subchapter
J of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section 301.7701-4(c)(2)
unless
required otherwise by applicable law or an applicable taxing
authority. The
Securities Administrator shall prepare, sign and file all of the
tax
returns in respect of such grantor trust. In addition, the
Securities
Administrator shall account for the right of the Class 3-A-1
Certificates
to receive amounts from the Reserve Fund as rights in limited
recourse
interest rate cap contracts written by the Counterparty in favor of
the
Class 3-A-1 Certificates. Thus, for tax purposes, each Class 3-A-1
Certificate shall be treated as representing not only ownership of
a
"regular interest" in the Upper-Tier REMIC within the meaning of
Code
Section 860G(a)(1), but also ownership of an interest in a notional
principal contract.
(iv) For federal tax return and information reporting purposes, the
right of the Holders of the Class 3-A-1 Certificates to receive
payments
under the Yield Maintenance Agreement shall be assumed to have a
value of
zero as of the Closing Date unless and until required otherwise by
an
applicable taxing authority.
(e) On a daily basis within one (1) Business Day of receipt (except
as
otherwise specifically provided herein), the Master Servicer shall
deposit or
cause to be deposited in the Master Servicer Custodial Account the
following
payments and collections remitted to the Master Servicer by each
Servicer from
its respective Servicer Custodial Account pursuant to the related
Servicing
Agreement or otherwise or received by the Master 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:
-61-
(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 related 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 3.08 and (B) any Insurance Proceeds
released
from an Escrow Account;
(iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
pursuant to Section 3.09(f) in connection with any losses on
Permitted
Investments with respect to the Master Servicer Custodial Account;
(v) any amounts relating to REO Property required to be remitted by
the applicable Servicer;
(vi) Periodic Advances made by the applicable Servicer pursuant to
the
related Servicing Agreement (or, if applicable, by the Master
Servicer or
the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.19 or the Trustee pursuant to
Section
8.01) and any Compensating Interest paid by the applicable Servicer
pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement;
(vii) all Purchase Prices, all Substitution Adjustment Amounts and
all
Reimbursement Amounts to the extent received by the Master
Servicer;
(viii) any Recoveries;
(ix) any Buy-Down Funds required to be deposited pursuant to
Section
3.08; and
(x) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.
If the Master Servicer shall deposit any amount not required to be
deposited, it may at any time withdraw such amount from the Master
Servicer
Custodial Account, any provision herein to the contrary
notwithstanding. All
funds required to be deposited in the Master Servicer Custodial
Account shall be
held by the Master Servicer in trust for the Certificateholders
until disbursed
in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with
Section 3.11.
(f) Each institution at which the Master Servicer Custodial Account
is
maintained shall invest the funds therein as directed in writing by
the Master
Servicer in Permitted Investments, which shall mature not later
than the date on
which the Master Servicer is required to remit to the Securities
Administrator
pursuant to Section 3.09(b) and 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 Master
Servicer
Custodial Account Reinvestment Income shall be for the benefit of
the Master
Servicer as part of its master servicing compensation and shall be
remitted to
the Master Servicer monthly as provided herein.
-62-
The amount of any losses realized in the Master Servicer Custodial
Account
incurred in any such account in respect of any such investments
shall promptly
be deposited by the Master Servicer from its own funds in the
Master Servicer
Custodial Account.
(g) Each institution at which the Certificate Account is maintained
shall
invest the funds therein if directed in writing by the Securities
Administrator
in Permitted Investments that are obligations of the institution
that maintains
the Certificate Account, which shall mature on the Distribution
Date and 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 income and gains net of any losses realized
since the
preceding Distribution Date from Permitted Investments of funds in
the
Certificate Account shall be for the benefit of the Securities
Administrator as
its compensation and the amount of any losses realized in the
Certificate
Account in respect of any such Permitted Investments shall promptly
be deposited
by the Securities Administrator from its own funds in the
Certificate Account.
(h) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Depositor, the
Trustee,
the Securities Administrator and the Rating Agencies of any
proposed change of
location of the Master Servicer Custodial Account not later than 30
days after
and not more that 45 days prior to any change thereof. The
Securities
Administrator shall give notice to the Depositor, the Trustee, the
Master
Servicer and the Rating Agencies of any proposed change of the
location of the
Certificate Account maintained by the Securities Administrator not
later than 30
days after and not more than 45 days prior to any change thereof.
The creation
of the Master Servicer Custodial Account and the Certificate
Account shall be
evidenced by a certification substantially in the form attached
hereto as
Exhibit F.
(i) The Securities Administrator shall designate each of the
Intermediate
Lower-Tier Certificate Sub-Account and 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
Securities Administrator shall, from funds available on deposit in
the
Certificate Account, be deemed to deposit into the Intermediate
Lower-Tier
Certificate Sub-Account, the Lower-Tier Distribution Amount. The
Securities
Administrator shall then immediately, from funds available in the
Intermediate
Lower-Tier Certificate Sub-Account, be deemed to deposit into the
Upper-Tier
Certificate Sub-Account, the Intermediate Lower-Tier Distribution
Amount.
Section 3.10 Access to Certain Documentation and Information
Regarding the
Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer shall afford and shall enforce
the
obligation of the Servicers to afford the Securities Administrator
and 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 Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer.
-63-
Section 3.11 Permitted Withdrawals from the Certificate Account and
the
Master Servicer Custodial Account. (a)The Securities Administrator
shall
withdraw funds from the Certificate Account for distributions to
Certificateholders in the manner specified in this Agreement. In
addition, the
Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the
Master Servicer
Custodial Account for the following purposes:
(i) to pay to the Servicers (to the extent not previously retained
by
them), the Servicing Fee to which they are entitled pursuant to the
Servicing Agreements and to pay itself any Master Servicer
Custodial
Account Reinvestment Income;
(ii) to pay to the Securities Administrator and the Trustee any
amounts due to the Securities Administrator and the Trustee under
this
Agreement (including, but not limited to, all amounts provided for

Section 3.02, Section 3.07, Section 8.05 and Section 9.11, other
than the
amounts provided for in the first sentence of Section 9.11);
(iii) to reimburse the Servicers (or, if applicable, itself or the
Trustee) for unreimbursed Advances made pursuant to the related
Servicing
Agreement (or in the case of itself or the Trustee, pursuant to
Section
3.19 or Section 8.01, as applicable), such right of reimbursement
pursuant
to this clause (iii) being limited first to amounts received on the
Mortgage Loans serviced by such Servicer in the related Loan Group
in
respect of which any such Advance was made and then limited to
amounts
received on all the Mortgage Loans serviced by such Servicer (or,
if
applicable, the Master Servicer or the Trustee) in respect of which
any
such Advance was made;
(iv) to reimburse the Servicers (or, if applicable, itself or the
Trustee) for any Nonrecoverable Advance previously made, such right
of
reimbursement pursuant to this clause (iv) being limited first to
amounts
received on the Mortgage Loans in the same Loan Group as the

either of them and reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement,

Custodial Account and not required to be deposited therein; and
(ix) to clear and terminate the Master Servicer Custodial Account
upon
termination of this Agreement pursuant to Section 10.01.
-64-
If the Master Servicer shall remit to the Securities Administrator
any amount
not required to be remitted, it may at any time direct the
Securities
Administrator 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
Securities
Administrator which describes the amounts remitted in error to the
Securities
Administrator for deposit to the Certificate Account.
(b) On each Distribution Date, funds on deposit in the Certificate
Account
and deemed to be on deposit in the Upper-Tier Certificate

Section 3.12 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Other Insurance.
(a) For
each Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall enforce any
obligation of the
Servicers under the related Servicing Agreements to maintain or
cause to be
maintained fire, flood and hazard insurance with extended coverage
customary in
the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in accordance with
the related
Servicing Agreements. It is understood and agreed that such
insurance provided
for in this Section 3.12 shall be with insurers meeting the
eligibility
requirements set forth in the applicable Servicing Agreement and
that no
earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any
Mortgagor or
to be maintained on property acquired in respect of a defaulted
loan, other than
pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any
time be in
force and as shall require such additional insurance.
(b) Pursuant to Sections 3.08 and 3.09, any amounts collected by
the Master
Servicer, or by any Servicer, under any insurance policies (other
than amounts
to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject
to the
related Mortgage or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with
the applicable
Servicing Agreement) shall be deposited into the Master Servicer
Custodial
Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Sections 3.09 and 3.11.
Any cost
incurred by the Master Servicer or any Servicer in maintaining any
such
insurance if the Mortgagor defaults in its obligation to do so
shall be added to
the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan where the terms of the
Mortgage Loan so
permit; provided, however, that the addition of any such cost shall
not be taken
into account for purposes of calculating the distributions to be
made to
Certificateholders and shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer
or such
Servicer pursuant to Sections 3.08 and 3.09.
-65-
Section 3.13 Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds. The
Master
Servicer shall (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing
Agreement)
cause the related Servicer to, prepare and present on behalf of the

insured's claim) as shall be necessary to realize recovery under
such policies.
Any proceeds disbursed to the Master Servicer (or disbursed to a
Servicer and
remitted to the Master Servicer) in respect of such policies, bonds
or contracts
shall be promptly deposited in the Master Servicer Custodial
Account upon
receipt, except that any amounts realized that are to be applied to
the repair

precedent to the
presentation of claims on the related Mortgage Loan to the insurer
under any
applicable Insurance Policy need not be so deposited (or remitted).
Section 3.14 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements. To
the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement and to
the extent
Mortgage Loans contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master
Servicer
shall cause the Servicers to enforce such clauses in accordance
with the
applicable Servicing Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the
enforcement of a
due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in
accordance with
the applicable Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a
Mortgage Loan is
assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in
accordance
with the applicable Servicing Agreement.
Section 3.15 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; REO
Property. (a)
The Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer (to the extent
required under the
related Servicing Agreement) 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, all in
accordance with the
applicable Servicing Agreement.
(b) With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of
sale shall
be taken in the name of the Trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, or
its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Master
Servicer shall
enforce the obligation of the Servicers, to the extent provided in
the
applicable Servicing Agreement, to (i) cause the name of the Trust
to be placed
on the title to such REO Property and (ii) ensure that the title to
such REO
Property references this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, to
the extent
provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, cause the
applicable Servicer to
sell any REO Property as expeditiously as possible and in
accordance with the
provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement,
as applicable.
Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master
Servicer shall
cause the applicable Servicer to protect and conserve such REO
Property in the
manner and to the extent required by the applicable Servicing
Agreement, subject
to the REMIC Provisions. In the event that the Trust Estate
acquires any
Mortgaged Property as aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a
default or
imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall
enforce the
obligation of the related Servicer to dispose of such Mortgaged
Property within
the time period specified in the applicable Servicing Agreement,
but in any
event within three years after the acquisition by the Servicer for
the Trust
(such period, the "REO Disposition Period") unless (i) the Servicer
provides to
the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator
an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust of such
Mortgaged Property
subsequent to three years after its acquisition will not result in
the
-66-
imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of the Trust as
defined in
Section 860F of the Code or under the law of any state in which
real property
securing a Mortgage Loan owned by the Trust is located or cause any
REMIC
created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC for federal income
tax purposes
or for state tax purposes under the laws of any state in which real
property
securing a Mortgage Loan owned by the Trust is located at any time
that any
Certificates are outstanding or (ii) the Servicer shall have
applied for and
received an extension of such period from the Internal Revenue
Service, in which
case the Trust Estate may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property
for the
period of such extension.
(c) The Master Servicer shall, to the extent required by the
related
Servicing Agreement, cause the applicable Servicer to deposit all
funds
collected and received in connection with the operation of any REO
Property in
the Servicer Custodial Account.
(d) The applicable Servicer, upon the final disposition of any REO
Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related
unreimbursed
Advances and other unreimbursed advances as well as any unpaid
Servicing Fees
from Liquidation Proceeds received in connection with the final
disposition of
such REO Property; provided that any such unreimbursed Advances as
well as any
unpaid Servicing Fees may be reimbursed or paid, as the case may
be, prior to
final disposition, out of any net rental income or other net
amounts derived
from such REO Property.
(e) The Liquidation Proceeds from the final disposition of the REO
Property, net of any payment to the applicable Servicer as provided
above shall
be deposited in the related Servicer Custodial Account on or prior
to the
Determination Date in the month following receipt thereof and be
remitted by
wire transfer in immediately available funds to the Master Servicer
for deposit
into the Master Servicer Custodial Account.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer
shall not permit any Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust to 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,
(ii) result in
the receipt by any REMIC created hereunder of any "income from
non-permitted
assets" within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or
any "net
income from foreclosure property" which is subject to taxation
under the REMIC
Provisions or (iii) subject any 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
Master
Servicer or related Servicer, as applicable, has agreed to
indemnify and hold
harmless the Trust with respect to the imposition of any such
taxes.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master
Servicer
and the Securities Administrator, as applicable, shall comply with
all federal
withholding requirements with respect to payments to
Certificateholders of
interest or original issue discount that the Master Servicer or the
Securities
Administrator reasonably believes are applicable under the Code.
The consent of
Certificateholders shall not be required for any such withholding.
Without
limiting the foregoing, the Securities Administrator agrees that it
will not
withhold with respect to payments of interest or original issue
discount in the
case of a Certificateholder that has
-67-
furnished or caused to be furnished an effective Form W-8 or an
acceptable
substitute form or a successor form and who is not a "10 percent
shareholder"
within the meaning of Code Section 871(h)(3)(B) or a "controlled
foreign
corporation" described in Code Section 881(c)(3)(C) with respect to
the Trust or
the Depositor. In the event the Securities Administrator withholds
any amount
from interest or original issue discount payments or advances
thereof to any
Certificateholder pursuant to federal withholding requirements, the
Securities
Administrator shall indicate the amount withheld to such
Certificateholder.
Section 3.16 Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files. Upon
the
payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Master
Servicer or
the related Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be
escrowed in
a manner customary for such purposes, the Master Servicer or the
related
Servicer will immediately notify the Trustee (or, at the direction
of the
Trustee, a Custodian) by delivering, or causing to be delivered,
two copies (one
of which will be returned to the related Servicer with the Mortgage
File) of a
Request for Release (which may be delivered in an electronic format

Upon receipt of
such request, the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, shall
within seven (7)
Business Days release the related Mortgage File to the Master
Servicer or the
related Servicer. The Trustee shall at the Master Servicer's or the
related
Servicer's direction execute and deliver to the Master Servicer or
the related
Servicer the request for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or
release or
satisfaction of mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of
the Mortgage
relating to the Mortgage Loan, in each case provided by the Master
Servicer or
the related Servicer, together with the Mortgage Note with written
evidence of
cancellation thereon. If the Mortgage has been recorded in the name
of MERS or
its designee, the Master Servicer shall enforce the applicable
Servicer's
obligation under the related Servicing Agreement 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 of the Mortgage Loan.
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 Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, 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 a
Custodian, as
applicable, shall, upon delivery to the Trustee (or, at the
direction of the
Trustee, a Custodian) of a Request for Release signed by a Master
Servicing
Officer or a Servicing Officer, release the Mortgage File within
seven (7)
Business Days to the Master Servicer or the related Servicer.
Subject to the
further limitations set forth below, the Master Servicer or the
applicable
Servicer shall cause the Mortgage Files so released to be returned
to the
Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, when the need therefor no
longer exists,
unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof are
deposited in
the related Servicer Custodial Account, in which case such Servicer
shall
deliver to the Trustee or a Custodian, as applicable, a Request for
Release,
signed by a Servicing Officer.
If the Master Servicer or any related Servicer at any time seeks to
initiate a foreclosure proceeding in respect of any Mortgaged
Property as
authorized by this Agreement or the Servicing Agreement, the Master
Servicer or
any related Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the
Trustee, for
signature, as appropriate, any court pleadings, requests for
trustee's
-68-
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 3.17 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of the
Master
Servicer to be Held for the Trustee. Notwithstanding any other
provisions of
this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer to
transmit to the
Trustee (or a Custodian on behalf of the Trustee) as required by
this Agreement
and the Servicing Agreements 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
Master Servicer
or the related Servicer or which otherwise are collected by the
Master Servicer
or the related Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds, Recoveries or
Insurance
Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan. All Mortgage Files and
funds collected
or held by, or under the control of, the Master Servicer or the
related 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 Master Servicer Custodial Account or
any Servicer
Custodial Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer or the
related Servicer
for and on behalf of the Trustee and shall be and remain the sole
and exclusive
property of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust, subject to the
applicable
provisions of this Agreement and the related Servicing Agreement.
The Master
Servicer also agrees that it shall not, and shall enforce any
requirement under
the related Servicing Agreement that the related Servicer shall
not, knowingly
create, incur or subject any Mortgage File or any funds that are
deposited in
any Master Servicer Custodial Account, any Servicer Custodial
Account, the
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 Master Servicer
or 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

except, however, that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to set
off against
and deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due
and payable to
the Master Servicer under this Agreement.
Section 3.18 Master Servicer Compensation. As compensation for its
services
hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to the Master

therefor except
as specifically provided in this Agreement.
Section 3.19 Advances. The Master Servicer shall enforce the
obligations of
each Servicer to make a Periodic Advance in accordance with the
applicable
Servicing Agreement. A Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed
from the
applicable Servicer Custodial Account for all Advances of its own

pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement. Based upon information
set forth in
the servicer reports, the Master Servicer shall inform the
Securities
Administrator of the amount of the Periodic Advance to be made by a
Servicer on
each applicable Advance Date no later than the related Remittance
Date. If a
Servicer fails to make any required Periodic Advance pursuant to
the related
Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall (i) unless the
Master Servicer
determines that such Periodic Advance would not be
-69-
recoverable in its good faith business judgment, make such Periodic
Advance not
later than the Business Day on which the Master Servicer is
required to remit
funds to the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 3.09(b)
and (ii) to
the extent such failure leads to the termination of the Servicer
and until such
time as a successor Servicer is appointed, continue to make
Periodic Advances
required pursuant to the related Servicing Agreement for any
Distribution Date,
within the same time frame set forth in (i) above, unless the
Master Servicer
determines (to the extent provided in the related Servicing
Agreement) that such
Periodic Advance would not be recoverable. If the Master Servicer
is unable to
make a Periodic Advance required to be made by it in accordance
with this
Section 3.19, the Master Servicer shall immediately, and in no

(a)Each of
the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the
Custodian, each at its
own expense, shall deliver, and shall cause each Servicing Function
Participant
engaged by it to deliver, or otherwise make available to the
Depositor and the
Securities Administrator on or before March 15th of each calendar
year beginning
in 2007, a report regarding such party's assessment of compliance
with the
Relevant Servicing Criteria (each, together with such similar
report delivered
by each Servicer as described in Section 3.21(c), an "Assessment of
Compliance"), that contains (i) a statement by such party of its
responsibility
for assessing compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (ii)
a statement
that such party used the Relevant Servicing Criteria to assess
compliance with
the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (iii) such party's assessment of
compliance
with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for the fiscal year
covered by
the Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to Section 3.22(c),
including, if
there has been any material instance of noncompliance with the
Relevant
Servicing Criteria, a discussion of each such failure and the
nature and status
thereof and (iv) a statement that a registered public accounting
firm has issued
an attestation report on such party's assessment of compliance with
the Relevant
Servicing Criteria as of and for such period.
No later than February 1 of each fiscal year for the Trust for
which a 10-K
is required to be filed, the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator and
the Custodian shall each forward to the Securities Administrator
and the
Depositor the name of each Servicing Function Participant engaged
by it and what
Relevant Servicing Criteria will be addressed in the report on
assessment of
compliance prepared by such Servicing Function Participant. When
the Master
Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Custodian (or any
Servicing
Function Participant engaged by them) submit their assessments to
the Securities
Administrator and the Depositor, such parties will also at such
time include the
assessment (and attestation pursuant to Section 3.21(b)) of each
Servicing
Function Participant engaged by it.
Promptly after receipt of such Assessments of Compliance, the
Securities
Administrator shall confirm that the Assessments of Compliance,
taken
individually address the Relevant Servicing Criteria for each party
as set forth
on Exhibit Q and on any similar exhibit set forth in each Servicing
Agreement in
respect of each Servicer and notify the Depositor of any
exceptions. None of
such parties shall be required to deliver any such Assessments of
Compliance
until April 15 in any given year so long as it has received written
confirmation
from the Depositor that a Form 10-K is not required to be filed in
respect of
the Trust for the preceding calendar year. The Custodian and any
Servicing
Function Participant engaged by it shall not be required to deliver
or cause the
delivery of such Assessments of Compliance in any given year so
long as it has
received written confirmation from the Depositor that a Form 10-K
is not
required to be filed in respect of the Trust for the preceding
fiscal year.
(b) Each of the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and
the
Custodian, each at its own expense, shall cause, and shall cause
each Servicing
Function Participant engaged by it to cause, on or before March
15th of each
calendar year beginning in 2007, a registered public accounting
firm (which may
also render other services to the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator,
the Custodian or such other Servicing Function Participants, as the
case may be)
and that is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public
Accountants
to furnish a report (each, together with such similar report
delivered by each
Servicer as described in Section 3.21(c), an "Attestation Report")
to the
Securities Administrator and the Depositor, to the effect
-71-
that (i) it has obtained a representation regarding certain matters
from the
management of such party, which includes an assertion that such
party has
complied with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, and (ii) on the
basis of an
examination conducted by such firm in accordance with standards for
attestation
engagements issued or adopted by the Public Company Accounting
Oversight Board,
it is expressing an opinion as to whether such party's compliance
with the
Relevant Servicing Criteria was fairly stated in all material
respects, or it
cannot express an overall opinion regarding such party's assessment
of
compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria. In the event that
an overall
opinion cannot be expressed, such registered public accounting firm
shall state
in such Attestation Report why it was unable to express such an
opinion. Each
such related Attestation Report shall be made in accordance with
Rules
1-02(a)(3) and 2-02(g) of the Commission's Regulation S-X. Such
Attestation
Reports must be available for general use and not contain
restricted use
language. If requested by the Depositor, such report shall contain
or be
accompanied by a consent of such accounting firm to inclusion or
incorporation
of such report in the Depositor's registration statement on Form
S-3 relating to
the Offered Certificates and the Form 10-K for the Trust.
Promptly after receipt of such Attestation Reports, the Securities
Administrator shall confirm that each Assessment of Compliance is
coupled with a
related Attestation Report and shall notify the Depositor of any
exceptions. The
Master Servicer shall include each such Attestation Report
furnished to it by
the Servicers with its own Attestation Report to be submitted to
the Securities
Administrator pursuant to this Section 3.21. None of the Master
Servicer, the
Securities Administrator or any Servicing Function Participant
engaged by such
parties shall be required to deliver or cause the delivery of such
Attestation
Reports until April 15 in any given year so long as it has received
written
confirmation from the Depositor that a Form 10-K is not required to
be filed in
respect of the Trust for the preceding fiscal year. The Custodian
and any
Servicing Function Participant engaged by it shall not be required
to deliver or
cause the delivery of such Attestation Report in any given year so
long as it
has received written confirmation from the Depositor that a Form
10-K is not
required to be filed in respect of the Trust for the preceding
fiscal year.
(c) The Master Servicer shall enforce any obligation of each
Servicer, to
the extent set forth in the related Servicing Agreement, to deliver
to the
Master Servicer an Assessment of Compliance and related Attestation
Report
within the time frame set forth in, and in such form and substance
as may be
required pursuant to, the related Servicing Agreement. The Master
Servicer shall
include such Assessments of Compliance and Attestation Reports of
the Servicers
with its own Assessment of Compliance and related Attestation
Report to be
submitted pursuant to this Section 3.21.
(d) In the event the Master Servicer, the Custodian or the
Securities
Administrator is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of
this Agreement,
such party shall provide, and each such party shall cause any
Servicing Function
Participant engaged by it to provide, an Assessment of Compliance
pursuant to
this Section 3.21, coupled with an Attestation Report as required
in this
Section 3.21 with respect to the period of time that the Master
Servicer or the
Securities Administrator was subject to this Agreement.
Section 3.22 Reports to the Commission. (a) The Securities
Administrator
and the Master Servicer shall reasonably cooperate with the

(b) Within 15 days after each Distribution Date (subject to

Exchange Act, in
form and substance as required by the Exchange Act. The Securities

parties set
forth on Exhibit R hereto to the Depositor and the Securities

paragraph, and
the Securities Administrator will have no duty or liability for any

As set forth on Exhibit R hereto, within 5 calendar days after the
related
Distribution Date, (i) the parties described on Exhibit R shall be
required to

cts.sec.notifications@wellsfargo.com
with a copy by facsimile to 410-715-2380) and the Depositor, to the
extent known

such other
format as otherwise agreed upon by the Securities Administrator and
such party,
any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure, if applicable, together with
an Additional
Disclosure Notification in the form of Exhibit V and (ii) the
Depositor shall
approve, as to form and substance, or disapprove, as the case may
be, the
inclusion of the Additional Form 10-D Disclosure on Form 10-D. The
Securities
Administrator shall compile all such information provided to it in

prepared by it. The Securities Administrator has no duty under this
Agreement to
monitor or enforce the performance by the parties listed on Exhibit
R of their
duties under this paragraph or proactively solicit or procure from
such parties
any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure information. The Depositor will
be
responsible for any reasonable fees and expenses assessed or
incurred by the
Securities Administrator in connection with including any
Additional Form 10-D
Disclosure on Form 10-D pursuant to this paragraph.
After preparing the Form 10-D, the Securities Administrator shall,
upon
request, forward electronically a copy of the Form 10-D to the
Master Servicer
for review and, only if Additional Form 10-D Disclosure is
contained therein,
the Securities Administrator shall forward such Form 10-D to the
Depositor for
review. Within 2 Business Days after receipt of such copy, the
Depositor shall
notify the Securities Administrator in writing (which may be

the absence
of any written changes or approval, the Securities Administrator
shall be
entitled to assume that such Form 10-D is in final form and the
Securities
Administrator may proceed with the execution and filing of the Form
10-D. A duly
authorized officer of the Master Servicer shall sign each Form
10-D. If a Form
10-D cannot be filed on time or if a previously filed Form 10-D
needs to be
amended, the Securities Administrator will follow the procedures
set forth in
Section 3.22(f)(ii). Form 10-D requires the registrant to indicate
(by checking
"yes" or "no") that it "(1) has filed all
-73-
reports required to be filed by Section 13 or 15(d) of the Exchange
Act during
the preceding 12 months (or for such shorter period that the
registrant was
required to file such reports), and (2) has been subject to such
filing
requirements for the past 90 days." The Depositor hereby represents
to the
Securities Administrator that the Depositor has filed all such
required reports
during the preceding 12 months and that is has been subject to such
filing
requirement for the past 90 days. The Depositor shall notify the
Securities
Administrator in writing, no later than the fifth calendar day
after the related
Distribution Date with respect to the filing of a report on Form
10-D, if the
answer to either question should be "no." The Securities
Administrator shall be
entitled to rely on such representations in preparing, executing
and/or filing
any such report. Promptly (but no later than 1 Business Day) after
filing with
the Commission, the Securities Administrator will make available on
its internet
website a final executed copy of each Form 10-D prepared and filed
by the
Securities Administrator. The signing party at the Master Servicer
can be

this
Agreement acknowledges that the performance by the Master Servicer
and
Securities Administrator of its duties under this Section 3.22(b)

that are
applicable to the parties to this Agreement in the delivery to the
Securities
Administrator of any necessary Additional Form 10-D Disclosure
pursuant to the
related Servicing Agreements, any custodial agreement or any other
applicable
agreement. Neither the Master Servicer nor the Securities
Administrator shall
have any liability for any loss, expense, damage, claim arising out
of or with
respect to any failure to properly prepare, arrange for execution
and/or timely
file such Form 10-D, where such failure results from the Master
Servicer's or
the Securities Administrator's inability or failure to receive, on
a timely
basis, any information from any other party hereto or any Servicer,
Custodian or
Servicing Function Participant needed to prepare, arrange for
execution or file
such Form 10-D, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or
willful
misconduct.

Trust. In the event the Master Servicer, the Securities
Administrator or any
Servicing Function Participant engaged by such parties is
terminated or resigns
pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any applicable
sub-servicing
agreement, as the case may be, such party shall provide a Back-up
Certification
to the Certifying Person pursuant to this Section 3.22(e) with
respect to the
period of time it was subject to this Agreement or any applicable
sub-servicing
agreement, as the case may be. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Master
Servicer shall not be obligated to sign the Sarbanes-Oxley
Certification in the
event that it does not receive any Back-up Certification required
to be
furnished to it pursuant to this section or any Servicing Agreement
or Custodial

required pursuant to each of the Servicing Agreements.
(g) Upon any filing with the Commission prepared and filed by the
Securities Administrator, the Securities Administrator shall
promptly deliver or

(h) (i) The obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through (g) of
this
Section shall only apply with respect to periods for which reports
are required
to be filed with respect to the Trust under the Exchange Act. On or
prior to
January 30 of the first year in which the Securities Administrator
is able to do
so under applicable law, unless otherwise requested by the
Depositor, the
Securities Administrator shall prepare and file with the Commission
a Form 15
Suspension Notification executed by the Master Servicer with
respect to the
Trust, with a copy to the Depositor. At the beginning of the
calendar year after
the filing of a Form 15 Suspension Notification, if the Depositor
or the
Certificate Registrar determines that the number of
Certificateholders of the
Offered Certificates of record exceeds the number set forth in
Section 15(d) of
the Exchange Act or the regulations promulgated pursuant thereto
which would
cause the Trust to again become subject to the reporting
requirements of the
Exchange Act, it shall promptly notify the Securities Administrator
and the
Securities Administrator shall recommence preparing and filing
reports on Form
8-K, Form 10-D and Form 10-K as required pursuant to this Section
and the
then-current reporting requirements of the Exchange Act and the
parties hereto
will again have the obligations set forth in paragraphs (a) through
(h) of this
Section.
(ii) In the event that the Securities Administrator is unable to
timely
file with the Commission all or any required portion of any Form
8-K, Form 10-D
or Form 10-K required to be filed by this Agreement because
required disclosure
information was either not delivered to it or delivered to it after
the delivery
deadlines set forth in this Agreement or for any other reason, the
Securities
Administrator will immediately electronically notify the Depositor
and the
Master Servicer of such inability to make a timely filing with the
Commission.
In the case of Form 10-
-78-
D and Form 10-K, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer,
the Trustee
and the Depositor will cooperate to prepare and file a Form 12b-25
and a Form
10-D/A and Form 10-K/A as applicable, pursuant to Rule 12b-25 of
the Exchange
Act. In the case of Form 8-K, the Securities Administrator will,
upon receipt of
all required Form 8-K Disclosure Information and upon the approval
and direction
of the Depositor, include such disclosure information on the next
Form 10-D. In
the event that any previously filed Form 8-K, Form 10-D or Form
10-K needs to be
amended in connection with any Additional Form 10-D Disclosure
(other than, in
the case of Form 10-D, for the purpose of restating any Monthly
Statement),
Additional Form 10-K Disclosure or Form 8-K Disclosure Information,
the
Securities Administrator will notify the Depositor and such other
parties to the
transaction as are affected by such amendment, and such parties
will cooperate
to prepare any necessary Form 8-K/A, Form 10-D/A or Form 10-K/A.
Any Form 15,
Form 12b-25 or any amendment to Form 8-K or Form 10-D shall be
signed by a duly
authorized officer (and a senior officer with respect to the Form
10-K) of the
Master Servicer. The parties to this Agreement acknowledge that the
performance
by the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator of their
duties under
this Section 3.22(h) related to the timely preparation, arrangement
for
execution and filing of Form 15, a Form 12b-25 or any amendment to
Form 8-K,
Form 10-D or Form 10-K is contingent upon each such party
performing its duties
under this Section 3.22(h). Neither the Master Servicer nor the
Securities
Administrator shall have any liability for any loss, expense,
damage, claim
arising out of or with respect to any failure to properly prepare,
arrange for
execution and/or timely file any such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any
amendments to
Forms 8-K, Form 10-D or Form 10-K, where such failure results from
the
Securities Administrator's inability or failure to receive, on a
timely basis,
any information from any other party hereto or any Servicer, the
Custodian or
any Servicing Function Participant needed to prepare, arrange for
execution or
file such Form 15, Form 12b-25 or any amendments to Forms 8-K, Form
10-D or Form
10-K, not resulting from its own negligence, bad faith or willful
misconduct.
(i) Notwithstanding the provision of Section 11.01, this Section
3.22 may
be amended without the consent of the Certificateholders.

the
interest distributable in respect of each Uncertificated Lower-Tier
Interest and any Distribution Date, Non-Supported Interest
Shortfalls and
Relief Act Reductions related to a Loan Group shall be allocated to
the
related Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests pro rata based on, and

Loan Group 1, Loan Group 2 and Loan Group 3, respectively (except
that if
any such amount is greater than on the preceding Distribution Date,
the
least amount of principal shall be distributed to the Class 1-LS
Interest,
the Class 2-LS Interest and the Class 3-LS Interest, such that the
Subordinate Balance Ratio is maintained), and third, any remaining
principal to the Class 1-L Interest, the Class 2-L Interest and the

so as to
keep the principal balances thereof (computed to eight decimal
places)
equal to 0.100% of the Group Subordinate Amount for Loan Group 1,
Loan
Group 2 and Loan Group 3, respectively (except that if any such
amount is
greater than on the preceding Distribution Date, the least amount
of
Realized Losses shall be allocated to the Class 1-LS Interest, the
Class
2-LS Interest and the Class 3-LS Interest such that the Subordinate
Balance
Ratio is maintained); and third, the remaining Realized Losses
shall be
allocated to the Class 1-L Interest, the Class 2-L Interest and the

As of any date, the aggregate principal balance of the Class 1-L
Interest and the Class 1-LS Interest shall equal the aggregate Pool
Stated
Principal Balance (Non-PO Portion) of Loan Group 1. As of any date,

amount of the
Class 2-LIO Interest will be equal to the Class 2-30-IO Notional
Amount and
(iii) the notional amount of the Class 3-LIO Interest will be equal
to the
Class 3-30-IO Notional Amount. As of any Distribution Date, the
principal
balance of the Class 2-LPO Interest will be equal to the Class
Certificate
Balance of the Class 30-PO Certificates.
The pass-through rate with respect to the Class 1-L Interest and
the

Interest, the Class 2-LIO Interest and the Class 3-LIO Interest
shall be
the same as the Pass-Through Rate for the Class 1-30-IO Component,
the
Class 2-30-IO Component and the Class 3-30-IO Component,
respectively, as
each such rate is described in the Preliminary Statement. The Class
2-LPO
Interest is a principal-only interest and is not entitled to
distributions
of interest.
Amounts distributed to the Uncertificated Lower-Tier Interests in
respect of principal and interest with respect to any Distribution
Date are
referred to herein collectively as the "Lower-Tier Distribution
Amount."
(vii) Distributions on the Uncertificated Intermediate Lower-Tier
Interests. On each Distribution Date, each Uncertificated
Intermediate
Lower-Tier Interest (other than the Class 1-ITIO Interest, the
Class 2-ITIO
Interest, the Class 3-ITIO Interest, the Class 1-A-6 Interest, the
Class
1-A-7 Interest and the Class 1-A-8 Interest) shall receive
distributions in
respect of principal in an amount equal to the amount of principal
distributed to its respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class,
Classes or
Component, as provided herein and shall have its principal balance
increased in the event of Recoveries in an amount equal to any such
increase in the Class Certificate Balance of the respective
Corresponding
Upper-Tier Class, Classes or Component. In the case of the Class
1-A-6
Interest, Class 1-A-7 Interest and Class 1-A-8 Interest, the Class
Certificate Balance of the Corresponding Classes (other than any
Notional
Amount) shall be allocated to the Class 1-A-6 Interest, Class 1-A-7
Interest and Class 1-A-8 Interest in proportion to the Initial
Class
Certificate Balance of the Corresponding Classes. On each
Distribution
Date, each Uncertificated Intermediate Lower-Tier Interest (other
than the
Class 2-ITPO Interest, the Class 1-A-6 Interest, the Class 1-A-7
Interest
and the Class 1-A-8 Interest) shall receive distributions in
respect of
interest in an amount equal to the Interest Accrual Amounts and
Unpaid
Interest Shortfalls, as the case may be, in respect of its
Corresponding
Upper-Tier Class, Classes or Component, in each case to the extent
actually
distributed thereon. On each Distribution Date, the Class 1-A-6
Interest,
the Class 1-A-7 Interest and the Class 1-A-8 Interest shall receive
distributions in respect of interest at its pass-through rate
specified
below as applied to its principal or notional balance in an amount
that
will be equal to the Interest Accrual Amounts and Unpaid Interest
Shortfalls, as the case may be, in respect of its proportionate
share of
its Corresponding Upper-Tier Class, Classes or Component, as
determined by
the initial principal balance of such Class 1-A-6 Interest, the
Class 1-A-7
Interest and the Class 1-A-8 Interest, in each case to the extent
actually
distributed thereon. Such amounts distributed to the Uncertificated
Intermediate Lower-Tier Interests in respect of principal and
interest with
respect to any Distribution Date are referred to herein
collectively as the
"Intermediate Lower-Tier Distribution Amount."
As of any date, the principal balance or notional amount of each
Uncertificated Intermediate Lower-Tier Interest other than the
Class 1-A-6
Interest, the Class 1-A-7 Interest and the Class 1-A-8 Interest
equals the
aggregate of the Class Certificate Balances, Component Balances or
Notional
Amounts of the respective Corresponding Upper-Tier Class, Classes
or
Component. As of any date, the aggregate principal balance of Class
1-A-6
Interest, the Class 1-A-7 Interest and the Class 1-A-8 Interest
shall equal
the aggregate Class Certificate Balance of each of the respective
Corresponding Upper-Tier Class, Classes or Component (without
respect to
any notional balances). The initial principal balance or notional
amount of
each Uncertificated Intermediate Lower-Tier Interest other than the
Class
1-A-6 Interest, the Class 1-A-7 Interest and the Class 1-A-8
Interest
equals the aggregate of the Initial Class Certificate Balances,
Component
Balance or Initial Notional Amounts of the respective Corresponding
Upper-Tier Class, Classes or Component. The initial principal
balance of
the Class 1-A-6 Interest shall equal $43,024,500; the initial
principal
balance of the Class 1-A-7 Interest shall equal $5,300,000; and the
initial
principal balance of the Class 1-A-8 Interest shall equal

(b) sequentially, to the Class 1-A-2 and Class 1-A-15
Certificates, in that order, until their Class Certificate
Balances have been reduced to zero;
(c) sequentially, to the Class 1-A-12 and Class 1-A-13, in
that order, up to their Maximum Initial Class Certificate
Balances;
(d) to the Class 1-A-14 Certificates, until their Class
Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero; and
-86-
(e) to the Class 1-A-16 Certificates, until their Class
Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero; and
fourth, concurrently, to the Class 1-A-9 Certificates and Class
1-A-10
Certificates, pro rata, up to their Maximum Initial Class
Certificate
Balances.
(ii) With respect to the Group 2 Senior Certificates:
On each Distribution Date prior to the Senior Credit Support
Depletion
Date, the amount distributable to the Group 2 Senior Non-PO
Certificates
pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(ii)(A) for such Distribution Date, will
be
distributed, concurrently, to the Class 2-A-1, Class 2-A-2 and
Class 2-A-4
Certificates, pro rata, until their Class Certificate Balances has
been
reduced to zero.
(iii) With respect to the Group 3 Senior Certificates:
On each Distribution Date prior to the Senior Credit Support
Depletion
Date, the amount distributable to the Group 3 Senior Certificates
pursuant
to Section 5.02(a)(ii)(A) for such Distribution Date, will be
distributed,
sequentially, as follows:
first, concurrently, to the Class 3-A-3 and Class 3-A-4
Certificates, pro rata, up to the Group 3 Priority Amount;
second, to the Class 3-A-1 Certificates, until their Class
Certificate Balance has been reduced to zero; and
third, concurrently, to the Class 3-A-3 and Class 3-A-4
Certificates, pro rata, until their Class Certificate Balances have
been reduced to zero.
With respect to any of the preceding distribution priorities, if
two or
more Classes of Certificates in a Group are paying concurrently but
only until
the Class Certificate Balances of fewer than all of such Classes
are reduced to
zero, the amount distributable in accordance with any such priority
will equal
the lesser of (a) the remaining Senior Principal Distribution
Amount for the
related Loan Group available to pay such Classes in accordance with
such
priority and (b) the remaining Senior Principal Distribution Amount
for such
Loan Group, which when distributed in accordance with such
priority, will result
in the Class Certificate Balance of designated Class or Classes
being reduced to
zero.
On each Distribution Date on or after the Senior Credit Support
Depletion
Date, notwithstanding the allocation and priority set forth above,
the portion
of the Pool Distribution Amount with respect to a Loan Group
available to be
distributed as principal of the Senior Non-PO Certificates of the
Related Group
shall be distributed, concurrently, as principal of such Classes of
Senior
Certificates (other than the Exchangeable Certificates), pro rata,
on the basis
of their respective Class Certificate Balances or in the case of a
Class of
Exchangeable REMIC Certificates, the sum of its Class Certificate
Balance and
the proportionate share of the Class Certificate Balances of all
related
Exchangeable Classes, until the Class Certificate Balances thereof
are reduced
to zero.
-87-
On each Distribution Date, the amount distributable as principal to
a Class
of Exchangeable Certificates shall equal its Class Principal
Distribution
Amount. Such amount shall reduce proportionately the amount
distributable as
principal to the Related Class or Classes of Exchangeable REMIC
Certificates.
The Class 1-A-4, Class 1-A-6, Class 1-A-11, Class 1-A-17, Class
1-A-18,
Class 1-A-19, Class 2-A-3, Class 3-A-2 and Class 30-IO Certificates
are Interest
Only Certificates and are not entitled to distributions in respect
of principal.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, on each Distribution Date prior to
the
Senior Credit Support Depletion Date but on or after the date on
which the
aggregate Class Certificate Balance of the Senior Non-PO
Certificates of a Group
have been reduced to zero, amounts otherwise distributable as
principal payments
from the Related Loan Group on the Subordinate Certificates will be
paid as
principal to the remaining Classes of Senior Non-PO Certificates
together with
the applicable Senior Principal Distribution Amount in accordance
with the
priorities set forth for the applicable Group in (b)(i), (ii) or
(iii) above,
provided that on such Distribution Date (a) the Aggregate
Subordinate Percentage
for such Distribution Date is less than twice the initial Aggregate
Subordinate
Percentage or (b) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage
Loans
(including, for this purpose, any Mortgage Loans in foreclosure,
any REO
Property and any Mortgage Loan for which the Mortgagor has filed
for bankruptcy
after the Closing Date) delinquent 60 days or more (averaged over
the preceding
six month period), as a percentage of the aggregate Class
Certificate Balance of
the Subordinate Certificates, is equal to or greater than 50%. If
the Senior
Non-PO Certificates of two Groups remain outstanding, the
distributions
described above will be made to the Senior Non-PO Certificates of
such Groups,
pro rata, in proportion to the aggregate Class Certificate Balance
of the Senior
Non-PO Certificates of each such Group. In addition, after giving
effect to the
second preceding sentence, if on any Distribution Date the
aggregate Class
Certificate Balance of the Senior Non-PO Certificates of a Group is
greater than
the Adjusted Pool Amount (Non-PO Portion) of the related Loan Group
(any such
Group, the "Undercollateralized Group" and any such excess, the
"Undercollateralized Amount"), all amounts otherwise distributable
as principal
on the Subordinate Certificates pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(iv)(L),
(J), (H),
(F), (D) and (B), in that order, will be paid as principal to the
Senior Non-PO
Certificates of the Undercollateralized Group together with the
applicable
Senior Principal Distribution Amount in accordance with the
priorities set forth
for the applicable Group above under (b)(i), (ii) or (iii) until
the aggregate
Class Certificate Balance of the Senior Non-PO Certificates of the
Undercollateralized Group equals the Adjusted Pool Amount (Non-PO
Portion) of
the Related Loan Group. Also, the amount of any Class Unpaid
Interest Shortfalls
and Component Unpaid Interest Shortfalls with respect to the
Undercollateralized
Group (including any Class Unpaid Interest Shortfalls or Component
Unpaid
Interest Shortfalls for such Distribution Date) will be paid to the
Undercollateralized Group (including the IO Component of such
Undercollateralized Group) pursuant to Section 5.02(a)(i) prior to
the payment
of any Undercollateralized Amount from amounts otherwise
distributable as
principal on the Subordinate Certificates pursuant to Section
5.02(a)(iv)(N),
(L), (J), (H),(F), (D) and (B), in that order. Such amount will be
paid to the
Senior Non-PO Certificates and IO Component of such
Undercollateralized Group in
accordance with the priorities set forth in Section 5.02(a)(i) up
to their
Interest Distribution Amounts or Component Interest Distribution
Amounts for
such Distribution Date.
-88-
The PO Deferred Amounts for the Class 30-PO Certificates will be
paid from
amounts otherwise distributable as principal on the Subordinate
Certificates
before any payments are made pursuant to the preceding paragraph.
(c) On each Distribution Date, Accrued Certificate Interest for
each Class
of Certificates (other than the Class 30-PO Certificates) and
Accrued Component
Interest for each IO Component for such Distribution Date shall be
reduced by
such Class' or Component's pro rata share, based on such Class'
Interest
Distribution Amount or Component's Component Interest Distribution
Amount for
such Distribution Date, without taking into account the allocation
made by this
Section 5.02(c), of an amount equal to the sum of (A) Non-Supported
Interest
Shortfalls incurred on any Mortgage Loans during the calendar month
preceding
the month of such Distribution Date, (B) on and after the Senior
Credit Support
Depletion Date, any other Realized Loss on the Mortgage Loans in
the related
Loan Group or related Loan Groups allocable to interest and (C)
Relief Act
Reductions incurred on any Mortgage Loans during the calendar month
preceding
the month of such Distribution Date.
(d) Notwithstanding the priority and allocation contained in
Section
5.02(a)(iv), if with respect to each Class of Subordinate
Certificates on any
Distribution Date, (i) the aggregate of the Class Certificate
Balances
immediately prior to such Distribution Date of all Classes of
Subordinate
Certificates that have a lower order of payment priority than such
Class,
divided by (ii) the aggregate Pool Stated Principal Balance (Non-PO
Portion) for
all Loan Groups immediately prior to such Distribution Date (for
each Class, the
"Fractional Interest") is less than the Original Fractional
Interest for such
Class, no distribution of principal will be made to any Class of
Subordinate
Certificates junior to such Class (the "Restricted Classes"), and
the Class
Certificate Balances of the Restricted Classes of Subordinate
Certificates will
not be used in determining the Pro Rata Share for the Subordinate
Certificates
that are not Restricted Classes. If the aggregate Class Certificate
Balances of
the Subordinate Certificates that are not Restricted Classes is
reduced to zero,
notwithstanding the previous sentence, any funds remaining will be
distributed
sequentially to the Subordinate Certificates that are Restricted
Classes in
order of their payment priority (beginning with the Class of
Subordinate
Certificates that is a Restricted Class then outstanding highest in
order of
payment priority).
(e) Any amounts distributed to the Class 3-A-1 Certificates from
the
Reserve Fund shall be deemed to be a distribution to such
Certificates from, for
federal income tax purposes, a grantor trust as described in
Subpart E of Part I
of Subchapter J of the Code and Treasury Regulation Section
301.7701-4(c)(2).
Section 5.03 Allocation of Losses. (a) No later than five (5)
Business Days
prior to the related Distribution Date, the Master Servicer shall
inform the
Securities Administrator in writing with respect to each Mortgage
Loan: (1)
whether any Realized Loss is a Deficient Valuation or a Debt
Service Reduction,
(2) of the amount of such loss or Deficient Valuation, or of the
terms of such
Debt Service Reduction and (3) of the total amount of Realized
Losses on the
Mortgage Loans in each Loan Group. Based on such information, the
Securities
Administrator shall determine the total amount of Realized Losses
on the
Mortgage Loans in each Loan Group with respect to the related
Distribution Date.
Realized Losses shall be allocated to the Certificates by a
reduction in the
Class Certificate Balances of the designated Classes pursuant to
the operation
of Section 5.03(b).
-89-
(b) On each Distribution Date, the Class Certificate Balance of the
Class
30-PO Certificates shall be reduced on each Distribution Date by
the amount, if
any, by which the Class Certificate Balance of the Class 30-PO
Certificates
(after giving effect to the amounts to be distributed as a
distribution of
principal) exceeds the Adjusted Pool Amount (PO Portion) for Loan
Group 2 for
