Loans contain proprietary business information of the Servicer and
its
customers. The Trustee and the Depositor agree that they will not
use such
information for business purposes without the express written
consent of the
Servicer and that all such information shall be kept strictly
confidential.
It
is the intention of this Agreement that the conveyance of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Trust Fund
pursuant to this
Agreement shall constitute a purchase and sale and not a loan. If a
conveyance
of Mortgage Loans from any Seller to the Depositor is characterized
as a pledge
and not a sale, then the Depositor shall be deemed to have
transferred to the
Trustee all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in, to and
under the
obligations of such Seller deemed to be secured by said pledge; and
it is the
intention of this Agreement that the Depositor shall also be deemed
to have
granted to the Trustee a first priority security interest in all of
the
Depositor's right, title, and interest in, to and under the
obligations of such
Seller to the Depositor deemed to be secured by said pledge and
that the Trustee
shall be deemed to be an independent custodian for purposes of
perfection of the
security interest granted to the Depositor. If the conveyance of
the Mortgage
Loans from the Depositor to the Trustee is characterized as a
pledge, it is the
intention of this Agreement that this Agreement shall constitute a
security
agreement under applicable law, and that the Depositor shall be
deemed to have
granted to the Trustee a first priority security interest in all of
the
Depositor's right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage
Loans, all
payments of principal of or interest on such Mortgage Loans, all
other rights
relating to and payments made in respect of the Trust Fund, and all
proceeds of
any thereof. If the trust created by this Agreement terminates
prior to the
satisfaction of the claims of any Person in any Certificates, the
security
interest created hereby shall continue in full force and effect and
the Trustee
shall be deemed to be the collateral agent for the benefit of such
Person.
In
addition to the conveyance made in the first paragraph of this
Section
2.01, the Depositor does hereby convey, assign and set over to the
Trustee all
of its right, title and interest in that portion of the Trust Fund
described in
items (ii), (iii), (iv) and (v) of the definition thereof and
further assigns to
the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders those
representations and
warranties of the Sellers contained in the Sale Agreements and
described in
Section 3.01 hereof and the benefit of the repurchase obligations
of the Sellers
described in Sections 2.02 and 3.01 hereof and the obligations of
the Sellers
contained in the Sale Agreements to take, at the request of the
Depositor or the
Trustee, all action on its part which is reasonably necessary to
ensure the
enforceability of a Mortgage Loan.
The
parties hereto agree and understand that it is not intended that
any
mortgage loan be included in the Trust that is any of (i) a
"High-Cost Home
Loan" as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective
November 27,
2003, (ii) a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined in the New Mexico
Home Loan
Protection Act effective January 1, 2004, (iii) a "High-Cost Home
Mortgage Loan"
as defined in the Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act
effective
November 7, 2004 or (iv) a "High-Cost Home Loan" as defined by the
Indiana High
Cost Home Loan Law effective January 1, 2005.
Section 2.02 Acceptance by Trustee. Except as set forth in the
Exception
Report delivered contemporaneously herewith (the "Exception
Report"), the
Trustee acknowledges receipt by the Custodian on the Trustee's
behalf of the
Mortgage Note for each Mortgage Loan and delivery of a Mortgage
File (but does
not acknowledge receipt of all documents required to be included in
such
Mortgage File) with respect to each Mortgage Loan and declares that
the
Custodian holds and will hold on the Trustee's behalf such
documents and any
other documents constituting a part of the Mortgage Files delivered
to it in
trust for the use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders. The
Depositor will cause the Seller to repurchase any Mortgage Loans to
which an
exception was taken in the Exception
40
<PAGE>
Report unless such exception is cured to the satisfaction of the
Trustee within
45 Business Days of the Closing Date. The Trustee may accept
delivery of such
Mortgage Files by the Custodian on its behalf. The Custodian will
deliver a copy
of the Exception Report to the Depositor and the Trustee
The
Custodian, on the Trustee's behalf, agrees, for the benefit of
Certificateholders, to review each Mortgage File delivered to it
within 270 days
after the Closing Date to ascertain that all documents required by
Section 2.01
have been executed and received, and that such documents relate to
the Mortgage
Loans identified in Exhibit A that have been conveyed to it. If the
Custodian on
the Trustee's behalf finds any document or documents constituting a
part of a
Mortgage File to be missing or defective (that is, mutilated,
damaged, defaced
or unexecuted) in any material respect, the Custodian on the
Trustee's behalf
shall promptly (and in any event within no more than five Business
Days) after
such finding so notify the Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee and
the Depositor.
In addition, the Custodian on the Trustee's behalf shall also
notify the
Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee and the Depositor, if (a) in
examining the
Mortgage Files, the documentation shows on its face (i) any adverse
claim, lien
or encumbrance, (ii) that any Mortgage Note was overdue or had been
dishonored,
(iii) any evidence on the face of any Mortgage Note or Mortgage of
any security
interest or other right or interest therein, or (iv) any defense
against or
claim to the Mortgage Note by any party or (b) the original
Mortgage with
evidence of recording thereon with respect to a Mortgage Loan is
not received
within 270 days of the Closing Date; provided, however, that if the
Depositor
cannot deliver the original Mortgage with evidence of recording
thereon because
of a delay caused by the public recording office where such
Mortgage has been
delivered for recordation, the Depositor shall deliver or cause to
be delivered
to the Custodian and the Trustee written notice stating that such
Mortgage has
been delivered to the appropriate public recording officer for
recordation and
thereafter the Depositor shall deliver or cause to be delivered
such Mortgage
with evidence of recording thereon upon receipt thereof from the
public
recording office. The Depositor shall request that the Seller
correct or cure
such omission, defect or other irregularity, or substitute a
Mortgage Loan
pursuant to the provisions of Section 3.03, within 60 days from the
date the
Seller was notified of such omission or defect and, if the Seller
does not
correct or cure such omission or defect within such period, that
the Seller
purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90 days from
the date the
Depositor notified the Seller and the Trustee of such omission,
defect or other
irregularity at the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan. The
Purchase Price for
any Mortgage Loan purchased pursuant to this Section 2.02 shall be
paid to the
Servicer and deposited by the Servicer in the Collection Account
promptly upon
receipt, and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification
of such
deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall promptly
release to the
Seller the related Mortgage File and the Trustee shall execute and
deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, as shall
be necessary
to vest in the Seller or its designee, as the case may be, any
Mortgage Loan
released pursuant hereto, and the Trustee shall have no further
responsibility
with regard to such Mortgage Loan. It is understood and agreed that
the
obligation of the Seller to purchase, cure or substitute any
Mortgage Loan as to
which a material defect in or omission of a constituent document
exists shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect or omission
available to the
Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders. The Trustee shall be under
no duty or
obligation to inspect, review and examine such documents,
instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine that they are genuine,
enforceable or
appropriate to the represented purpose, or that they have actually
been
recorded, or that they are other than what they purport to be on
their face. The
Trustee shall keep confidential the name of each Mortgagor and
shall not solicit
any such Mortgagor for the purpose of refinancing the related
Mortgage Loan.
Within 280 days of the Closing Date, the Trustee based solely
on
information provided to it by the Custodian shall deliver to the
Depositor and
the Servicer the Trustee's Certification, substantially in the form
of Exhibit G
attached hereto, setting forth the status of the Mortgage Files as
of such date.

acknowledges and accepts the assignment to it of the Trust Fund
created pursuant
to this Agreement in trust for the use and benefit of all present
and future
Certificateholders. The Trustee acknowledges the assignment to it
for the
benefit of the Trust Fund of the Mortgage Loans and has caused to
be
authenticated and delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor,

Section 2.04 REMIC Elections.
(a)
The Depositor hereby instructs and authorizes the Paying Agent to
make
appropriate elections to treat the Trust Fund as comprising two
REMICs (the
Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC). This Agreement shall be
construed so
as to carry out the intention of the parties that each REMIC
created hereunder
be treated as a REMIC at all times prior to the date on which the
Trust Fund is
terminated. The Closing Date is hereby designated as the "startup
day" of each
REMIC created hereunder within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of
the Code.
The Lower-Tier REMIC shall hold as assets all property of the Trust
Fund other
than (i) the Lower-Tier REMIC Interests and (ii) the Yield
Maintenance Agreement
and the Reserve Fund. Each of the Lower-Tier REMIC Regular
Interests is hereby
designated a "regular interest" (within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(1) of the
Code) in the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Upper-Tier REMIC shall hold as
assets the
several classes of uncertificated Lower-Tier REMIC Regular
Interests. Each of
the Upper-Tier REMIC Regular Interests is hereby designated as a
"regular
interest" (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code) in
the
Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class LT-R Interest is hereby designated as
the sole
residual interest (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(2) of the
Code) in the
Lower-Tier REMIC. The Residual Interest is hereby designated as the
sole
residual interest (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(2) of the
Code) in the
Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class A-R Certificate evidences ownership of
the Class
LT-R Interest and the Residual Interest. All interests described in
this Section
2.04(a) shall be designated as such on the Startup Day.

(1) The Class LT-R
Interest shall represent the sole class of residual interest
in
the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Class LT-R Interest will not have a
principal
amount or an interest rate. The Class LT-R Interest shall be
represented by
the
Class A-R Certificate.
(2) The Class LT1A-X
Interest is an interest only interest, has no principal
balance, is not entitled to payments of principal and will bear
interest on
its
notional amount. The notional amount of the Class LT1A-X Interest
shall
equal the Class 1-AX Notional Amount.
(3) The Class LT2A-X
Interest is an interest only interest, has no principal
balance, is not entitled to payments of principal and will bear
interest on
its
notional amount. The notional amount of the Class LT2A-X Interest
shall
equal the Class 2-AX Notional Amount.
(4) The initial
principal amount of the Class LT1-A Interest shall equal 1% of
the
Group One Subordinated Amount as of the first Distribution
Date.
(5) The initial
principal amount of each Lower-Tier REMIC Interest ending with
the
designation "B" shall equal the excess of (i) the initial Group
One
Non-PO Allocated Amount (in the case of the Class LT1-B Interest)
or the
initial Group Two Non-PO Allocated Amount (in the case of the Class
LT2-B
Interest) over (ii) the initial principal amount of the Lower-Tier
REMIC
Interest ending with the designation "A" that is related to the
same
Mortgage Group.
(6) The initial
principal amount of the Class LT2-A Interest shall equal 1% of
the
Group Two Subordinated Amount as of the first Distribution
Date.
Interest shall be payable to, and shortfalls and losses are
allocable to,
the Class LT1-AX Interest as such amounts are payable or allocable
to the Class
1-AX Certificates. Interest shall be payable to, and shortfalls and
losses are
allocable to, the Class LT2-AX Interest as such amounts are payable
or allocable
to the Class 2-AX Certificates.
Principal shall be payable to, and shortfalls, losses, prepayments
and
increases in principal amount related to Subsequent Recoveries are
allocable to,
the Class LTA-P Component One Interest as such amounts are payable
or allocable
to Class A-P Component One. Principal shall be payable to, and
shortfalls,
losses, prepayments and increases in principal amount related to
Subsequent
Recoveries are allocable to, the Class LTA-P Component Two Interest
as such
amounts are payable or allocable to Class A-P Component Two.
43
<PAGE>
After the foregoing allocations and distributions are made to the
Class
LT1-AX Interest, Class LT2-AX Interest, the Class LTA-P Component
One Interest
and the Class LTA-P Component Two Interest, distributions shall be
deemed to be
made and Realized Losses shall be deemed to be allocated to the
other Lower-Tier
REMIC Regular Interests first, so as to keep the Uncertificated
Principal
Balance of each Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interest ending with the
designation
"A" equal to 1% of the excess of (x) the Group One Non-PO Allocated
Amount (in
the case of the Class LT1-A Interest) or the Group Two Non-PO
Allocated Amount
(in the case of the Class LT2-A Interest) over (y) the aggregate
class principal
amounts of the Class 1-A Certificates (in the case of the Class
LT1-A Interest)
or the Class 2-A Certificates (in the case of the Class LT2-A
Interest) (except
that if 1% of any such excess is greater than the principal amount
of the
corresponding Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interest ending with the
designation "A",
the least amount of principal and Realized Losses shall be
distributed and
allocated to such Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests such that the
Lower-Tier
REMIC Subordinated Balance Ratio is maintained); and second, any
remaining
principal and Realized Losses to the Lower-Tier REMIC Regular
Interests ending
with the designation "B" in such a manner that the remaining
principal balance
of each such Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interest equals the excess of
(x) the
Group One Non-PO Allocated Amount (in the case of the Class LT1-B
Interest) or
the Group Two Non-PO Allocated Amount (in the case of the Class
LT2-B Interest)
over (y) the Uncertificated Principal Balance of the Lower-Tier
REMIC Regular
Interest ending with the designation "A" which is related to the
same Mortgage
Group. All computations with respect to the Lower-Tier REMIC
Interests shall be
taken out to eight decimal places.
If
on any Distribution Date there is an increase in the principal
amount of
any Class of Certificates (other than the Class A-P Certificates)
related to
Subsequent Recoveries, then, prior to distributions of principal
and allocations
of losses on such Distribution Date with respect to the Lower-Tier
REMIC, there
shall be a corresponding increase in the Uncertificated Principal
Balance of the
Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests, with such increase allocated
among the
Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests first, to each Lower-Tier REMIC
Regular
Interest ending with the designation "A", so that the
Uncertificated Principal
Balance of each such Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interest continues to
equal the
same percentage of the excess of (x) the Group One Non-PO Allocated
Amount (in
the case of the Class LT1-A Interest) or the Group Two Non-PO
Allocated Amount
(in the case of the Class LT2-A Interest) over (y) the aggregate
class principal
amounts of the Class 1-A Certificates (in the case of the Class
LT1-A Interest)
or the Class 2-A Certificates (in the case of the Class LT2-A
Interest) and so
that the Lower-Tier REMIC Subordinated Balance Ratio is maintained;
and second,
any remaining increase allocated to the Lower-Tier REMIC Regular
Interests
ending with the designation "B" in such a manner that the principal
balance of
each such Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interest equals the excess of
(x) the Group
One Non-PO Allocated Amount (in the case of the Class LT1-B
Interest) or the
Group Two Non-PO Allocated Amount (in the case of the Class LT2-B
Interest) over
(y) the Uncertificated Principal Balance of the Lower-Tier REMIC
Regular
Interest ending with the designation "A" which is related to the
same Mortgage
Group.

(b)
Solely for the purposes of Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the
Treasury
Regulations, the "latest possible maturity date" of each "regular
interest" in
each REMIC created hereunder is the Distribution Date immediately
following the
latest scheduled maturity of any Mortgage Loan.
(c)
The "tax matters person" with respect to each REMIC created
hereunder
for purposes of the REMIC Provisions shall be the beneficial owner
of the Class
A-R Certificate having the largest Percentage Interest of such
Class; provided,
however, that such largest beneficial owner and, to the extent
relevant, each
other Holder of a Class A-R Certificate, by its acceptance thereof,
irrevocably
appoints the Servicer as its agent and attorney-in-fact to act as
"tax matters
person" with respect to each REMIC created hereunder for purposes
of the REMIC
provisions.
(d)
It is intended that each REMIC created hereunder shall constitute,
and
that the affairs of the Trust Fund shall be conducted so as to
qualify each
REMIC created hereunder as, a "real estate mortgage investment
conduit" as
defined in and in accordance with the REMIC Provisions. In
furtherance of such
intention, the Servicer covenants and agrees that it shall act as
agent (and the
Servicer is hereby appointed to act as agent) on behalf of the
Trust Fund, each
REMIC created hereunder and the Holder of the Class A-R Certificate
and that in
such capacity it shall:
(i) prepare and file, or cause to be prepared and filed, in a
timely
manner, a U.S. Real Estate Mortgage Investment Conduit Income Tax
Return
(Form 1066) for each REMIC
created hereunder and prepare and file or cause
to
be prepared and filed with the Internal Revenue Service and
applicable
state or local tax authorities income tax or information returns
for each
taxable year with respect to each REMIC created hereunder, using
the
calendar year as the taxable year and the accrual method of
accounting,
containing such information and at the times and in the manner as
may be
required by the Code or state or local tax laws, regulations, or
rules, and
shall furnish or cause to be furnished to Certificateholders the
schedules,
statements or information at such times and in such manner as may
be
required thereby;
(ii) within thirty days of the Closing Date, shall furnish or cause
to
be
furnished to the Internal Revenue Service, on Form 8811 or as
otherwise
may
be required by the Code, the name, title, address, and telephone
number
of
the person that the Holders of the Certificates may contact for
tax
information relating thereto (and the Servicer shall act as the
representative of the Trust Fund for this purpose), together with
such
additional information as may be required by such Form, and shall
update
such
information at the time or times in the manner required by the
Code;
(iii) make or cause to be made an election, on behalf of each
REMIC
created hereunder, to be treated as a REMIC, and make the
appropriate
designations, if applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.04
on the
federal tax return of each REMIC hereunder for its first taxable
year (and,
if
necessary, under applicable state law);
(iv) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and forwarded,
to
the
Certificateholders and to the Internal Revenue Service and, if
necessary, state tax authorities, all information returns or
reports, or
furnish or cause to be furnished by telephone, mail, publication or
other
appropriate method such information, as and when required to be
provided to
them
in accordance with the REMIC Provisions, including without
limitation,
the
calculation of any original issue discount;
(v) provide information necessary for the computation of tax
imposed
on
the transfer of the Class A-R Certificate to a Disqualified
Organization, or an agent (including a broker,
45
<PAGE>
nominee or other middleman) of a Disqualified Organization, or
a
pass-through entity in which a Disqualified Organization is the
record
holder of an interest (the reasonable cost of computing and
furnishing such
information may be charged to the Person liable for such tax);
(vi) ensure that federal, state or local income tax or
information
returns shall be signed by the Trustee or such other Person as may
be
required to sign such returns by the Code or state or local
laws,
regulations or rules; and
(vii) maintain such records relating to each REMIC created
hereunder
as
may be required by the Code and as may be necessary to prepare
the
foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information.
(e)
Pursuant to Section 6.02(b), the Servicer, with the consent of
the
Trustee, hereby appoints the Global Corporate Trust MBS Group of
The Bank of New
York Trust Company, N.A. to perform the duties enumerated in (d)
above.
(f)
It is intended that the rights of each Class of the Class 1-A4
Certificates to receive payments in respect of Basis Risk Shortfall
Carryover
Amounts shall be treated as a right in interest rate cap contracts
and such
shall be accounted for as property held separate and apart from the
regular
interests in the Upper-Tier REMIC held by the Holders of the Class
1-A4
Certificates. This provision is intended to satisfy the
requirements of Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860G-2(i) for the treatment of property
rights coupled
with REMIC interests to be separately respected and shall be
interpreted
consistently with such regulation.
Section 2.05 Permitted Activities of Trust. The Trust is created
for the
object and purpose of engaging in the Permitted Activities.
Section 2.06 Qualifying Special Purpose Entity. For purposes of
SFAS 140,
the parties hereto intend that the Trust shall be treated as a
"qualifying
special purpose entity" as such term is used in SFAS 140 and any
successor rule
thereto and its power and authority as stated in Section 2.05 of
this Agreement
shall be limited in accordance with paragraph 35 thereof.

REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE DEPOSITOR AND
THE SERVICER; REPURCHASE OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 3.01 Representations
and Warranties of the Depositor with respect
to the Mortgage Loans.
The
Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the
benefit
of the Certificateholders that on or before the Closing Date it has
entered into
the Sale Agreements with the Sellers, that the Sellers have made
the following
representations and warranties with respect to each Mortgage Loan
in the Sale
Agreement as of the Closing Date, which representations and
warranties run to
and are for the benefit of the Depositor and the Trustee for the
benefit of the
Certificateholders, and as to which the Depositor has assigned to
the Trustee
for the benefit of the Certificateholders, pursuant to Section 2.01
hereof, the
right to cause the Seller to repurchase a Mortgage Loan as to which
there has
occurred an uncured breach of representations and warranties in
accordance with
the provisions of the Sale Agreement.
46
<PAGE>
(a)
The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is
complete,
true and correct in all material respects;
(b)
With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, the
Mortgage
creates a first lien or a first priority ownership interest in an
estate in fee
simple in real property securing the related Mortgage Note. With
respect to a
Co-op Loan, the related Mortgage is a valid, enforceable and
subsisting first
security interest on the related cooperative shares securing the
related
Mortgage Note, subject only to (a) liens of the related residential
cooperative
housing corporation for unpaid assessments representing the
Mortgagor's pro rata
share of the related residential cooperative housing corporation's
payments for
its blanket mortgage, current and future real property taxes,
insurance
premiums, maintenance fees and other assessments to which like
collateral is
commonly subject and (b) other matters to which like collateral is
commonly
subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the
security
intended to be provided by the related security agreement. There
are no liens
against or security interest in the cooperative shares relating to
each Co-op
Loan (except for unpaid maintenance, assessments and other amounts
owed to the
related cooperative which individually or in the aggregate will not
have a
material adverse effect on such Co-op Loan), which have priority
over the
Trustee's security interest in such cooperative shares;
(c)
All payments due prior to the Cut-off Date for such Mortgage Loan
have
been made as of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan is not
delinquent in payment
more than 30 days and has not been dishonored; to the best of the
Seller's
knowledge, there are no material defaults under the terms of the
Mortgage Loan;
the Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or
knowingly received
any advance of funds from a party other than the owner of the
Mortgaged Property
subject to the Mortgage (or, with respect to a Co-op Loan, the
related
Mortgagor), directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount
required by
the Mortgage Loan; there has been no more than one delinquency in
excess of 30
days during the preceding twelve-month period;
(d)
To the best of the Seller's knowledge, all taxes, governmental
assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal
charges, leasehold
payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing have
been paid,
or escrow funds have been established in an amount sufficient to
pay for every
such escrowed item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed
but is not
yet due and payable;
(e)
The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been
impaired,
waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written
instruments. No
Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, from the terms
thereof except
in connection with an assumption agreement and which assumption
agreement is
part of the Mortgage File and the terms of which are reflected in
the Mortgage
Loan Schedule;
(f)
The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right
of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including, without
limitation, the
defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the
Mortgage
Note or Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render
the Mortgage
Note or Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to
any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense
of usury,
and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense
has been
asserted with respect thereto, and the Mortgagor was not a debtor
in any state
or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the
Mortgage Loan was
originated;
(g)
With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, all
buildings or other customarily insured improvements upon the
Mortgaged Property
are insured by an insurer acceptable under the FNMA Guides against
loss by fire,
hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are provided
for in the
FNMA Guides or by FHLMC. All such standard hazard policies are in
full force and
47
<PAGE>
effect and on the date of origination contained a standard
mortgagee clause
naming the Seller and its successors in interest and assigns as
loss payee and
such clause is still in effect and all premiums due thereon have
been paid. If
required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended,
the Mortgaged
Property is covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the
requirements of the
current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration which
policy conforms
to FNMA and FHLMC requirements. The Mortgage obligates the
Mortgagor thereunder
to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense,
and on the
Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage
to maintain
such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek
reimbursement
therefor from the Mortgagor;
(h)
Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local laws and
all
applicable predatory and abusive lending laws, including, without
limitation,
usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures,
consumer credit
protection, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable
to the
Mortgage Loan have been complied with in all material respects;
(i)
The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled or subordinated, in
whole
or in part, or rescinded, and the Mortgaged Property has not been
released from
the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part nor has any
instrument been
executed that would effect any such release, cancellation,
subordination or
rescission;
(j)
With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, the
Mortgage
is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien on the
Mortgaged
Property, including, all buildings on the Mortgaged Property. The
Mortgage and
the Mortgage Note do not contain any evidence of any security
interest or other
interest or right thereto. Such lien is free and clear of all
adverse claims,
liens and encumbrances having priority over the first lien of the
Mortgage
subject only to (1) the lien of non-delinquent current real
property taxes and
assessments not yet due and payable, (2) covenants, conditions and
restrictions,
rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as
of the date
of recording which are acceptable to mortgage lending institutions
generally and
either (A) which are referred to or otherwise considered in the
appraisal made
for the originator of the Mortgage Loan, or (B) which do not
adversely affect
the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property as set forth in such
appraisal,
and (3) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject
which do not
materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to
be provided
by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of
the related
Mortgaged Property. Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or
equivalent
document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage
Loan
establishes and creates a valid, subsisting, enforceable and
perfected first
lien and first priority security interest on the property described
therein, and
the Depositor has the full right to sell and assign the same to the
Trustee for
the benefit of the Certificateholders;
(k)
The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are original and genuine
and
each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker
thereof,
enforceable in all respects in accordance with its terms subject to
bankruptcy,
insolvency and other laws of general application affecting the
rights of
creditors and the Depositor has taken all action necessary to
transfer such
rights of enforceability to the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders. All parties to the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage had the
legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and
deliver the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage
have been
duly and property executed by such parties. The proceeds of the
Mortgage Loan
have been fully disbursed and there is no requirement for future
advances
thereunder, and any and all requirements as to completion of any
on-site or
off-site improvements and as to disbursements of any escrow funds
therefor have
been complied with;
(l)
The Seller is the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loan and
the
indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Note, except for the
Assignments of
Mortgage which have been sent for
48
<PAGE>
recording, and upon recordation the Seller will be the owner of
record of the
Mortgage and the indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Note, and
upon the sale
of the Mortgage Loan to the Trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders, the
Seller will retain the Mortgage File or any part thereof with
respect thereto
not delivered to the Trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders or its
designee in trust only for the purpose of servicing and supervising
the
servicing of the Mortgage Loan. Immediately prior to the transfer
and assignment
to the Trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, the
Mortgage Loan,
including the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, were not subject to
an assignment
or pledge, and the Depositor had good and marketable title to and
was the sole
owner thereof and had full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage
Loan to the
Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders free and clear of
any
encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security
interest and has
the full right and authority subject to no interest or
participation of, or
agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign the Mortgage
Loan pursuant
to this Agreement and following the sale of the Mortgage Loan, the
Trustee for
the benefit of the Certificateholders will own such Mortgage Loan
free and clear
of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge,
charge, claim
or security interest;
(m)
With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, the
Mortgage
Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title insurance policy or other
generally
acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC,
issued by a
title insurer acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC and qualified to do
business in the
jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring
(subject to the
exceptions contained in (j) (1), (2) and (3) above) the Seller, its
successors
and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the
original
principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. Such lender's title
insurance policy
insures ingress and egress by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any
interest
therein. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor
has been given
the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage
title insurance.
The Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of
such lender's
title insurance policy, and such lender's title insurance policy is
in full
force and effect and will be in full force and effect upon the
consummation of
the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have
been made under
such lender's title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the
related
Mortgage, including the Seller, has done, by act or omission,
anything which
would impair the coverage of such lender's title insurance
policy;
(n)
There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
existent, under the Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and no
event which,
with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any
grace or cure
period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event
permitting
acceleration; and neither the Seller nor any prior mortgagee has
waived any
default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration;
(o)
There are no mechanics', or similar liens or claims which have
been
filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding
that under law
could give rise to such liens) affecting the related Mortgaged
Property (or the
related residential dwelling unit in the Underlying Mortgage
Property, in the
case of a Co-op Loan) which are or may be liens prior to or equal
to the lien of
the related Mortgage;
(p)
With respect to a Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan, all
improvements subject to the Mortgage which were considered in
determining the
Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the
boundaries and
building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property (and wholly
within the
project with respect to a condominium unit) and no improvements on
adjoining
properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property except those which
are insured
against by the title insurance policy referred to in clause (m)
above and all
improvements on the property comply with all applicable zoning and
subdivision
laws and ordinances; the Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied
under
applicable law;
(q)
The Mortgage Loan complies in all material respects with all the
terms,
conditions and requirements of the Seller's underwriting standards
in effect at
the time of origination of such Mortgage
49
<PAGE>
Loan. The Mortgage Notes and Mortgages (exclusive of any riders)
are on forms
generally acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC. Monthly Payments under the
Mortgage Note
are due and payable on the first day of each month. The Mortgage
contains the
usual and enforceable provisions of the originator at the time of
origination
for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal amount
of the
Mortgage Loan if the related Mortgaged Property is sold without the
prior
consent of the mortgagee thereunder;
(r)
The Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the
case
of a Co-op Loan), is not subject to any material damage by waste,
fire,
earthquake, windstorm, flood or other casualty. To the best of the
Seller's
knowledge, at origination of the Mortgage Loan there was, and there
currently
is, no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation of
the Mortgaged
Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op
Loan);
(s)
The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions
such
as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate
for the
realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the
security
provided thereby, including, (l) in the case of a Mortgage
designated as a deed
of trust, by trustee's sale, and (2) otherwise by judicial
foreclosure. There is
no homestead or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which
would interfere
with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale
or the right
to foreclose the Mortgage subject to applicable federal and state
laws and
judicial precedent with respect to bankruptcy and right of
redemption or similar
law;
(t)
If the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, authorized
and
duly qualified if required under applicable law to act as such, has
been
properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the
Mortgage, and no
fees or expenses, except as may be required by local law, are or
will become
payable by the Purchaser to the trustee under the deed of trust,
except in
connection with a trustee's sale or attempted sale after default by
the
Mortgagor;
(u)
The Mortgage File contains an appraisal or a recertification
document
(in the case of a Mortgage Loan originated under CHF's Streamlined
Refinance
Program) of the related Mortgaged Property (or the related
residential dwelling
unit in the Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op
Loan), signed
prior to the final approval of the mortgage loan application by an
appraiser
approved by the Seller who had no interest, direct or indirect, in
the Mortgaged
Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op
Loan), or in
any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is
not affected by
the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan. The appraisal is
in a form
acceptable to FNMA or FHLMC;
(v)
All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage, whether
as
mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the
period in which
they held and disposed of such interest, were) (A) in substantial
compliance
with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of
the state
wherein the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property,
in the case of
a Co-op Loan), is located, and (B) (1) organized under the laws of
such state,
or (2) qualified to do business in such state, or (3) federal
savings and loan
associations or national banks or a Federal Home Loan Bank or
savings bank
having principal offices in such state, or (4) not doing business
in such state;
(w)
The related Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by
any
collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the
security
interest of any applicable security interest of any applicable
agreement or
chattel mortgage referred to above and such collateral does not
serve as
security for any other obligation;
(x)
The Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required by
applicable law with respect to the making of such mortgage
loans;
50
<PAGE>
(y)
The Mortgage Loan does not contain "graduated payment"
features;
(z)
The Mortgagor is not in bankruptcy and, to the best of the
Seller's
knowledge, the Mortgagor is not insolvent;
(aa)
The Mortgage Loans are fixed rate mortgage loans. Each Mortgage
Loan
has an original term to maturity of not more than thirty (30) years
with
interest payable in arrears on the first day of each month. No
Mortgage Loan
contains terms or provisions which would result in negative
amortization;
(bb)
Each Mortgage Note, each Mortgage, each Assignment of Mortgage and
any
other documents required pursuant to this Agreement to be delivered
to the
Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders or its designee, or its
assignee for
each Mortgage Loan, have been, on or before the Closing Date,
delivered to the
Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders or its designee, or its
assignee;
(cc)
All escrow payments have been collected in full compliance with
state
and federal law and the provisions of the related Mortgage Note and
Mortgage. As
to any Mortgage Loan that is the subject of an escrow, escrow of
funds is not
prohibited by applicable law and has been established in an amount
sufficient to
pay for every escrowed item that remains unpaid and has been
assessed but is not
yet due and payable. No escrow deposits or other charges or
payments due under
the Mortgage Note have been capitalized under any Mortgage or the
related
Mortgage Note. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state,
federal and
local law has been properly paid and credited;
(dd)
[Reserved];
(ee)
In the event that at origination the Mortgage Loan has a
Loan-to-Value
Ratio greater than 80%, the excess of the principal balance of the
Mortgage Loan
over 75% of the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property, with
respect to a
refinanced Mortgage Loan, or the lesser of the Appraised Value or
the purchase
price of the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property,
in the case
of a Co-op Loan), with respect to a purchase money Mortgage Loan,
is and will be
insured as to payment defaults by a Primary Insurance Policy issued
by a
Qualified Insurer, except where the primary mortgage insurance was
(i)
impermissible at origination at applicable law, in which case such
Mortgage Loan
was originated in accordance with applicable law, (ii) cancelled at
the request
of the Mortgagor pursuant to the cancellation requirements of FNMA,
FHLMC, state
law or, as applicable the Home Owner and Equity Protection Act of
1994, as
amended, or (iii) automatically terminated in accordance with the
termination
requirements of FNMA, FHLMC, state law or, as applicable the Home
Owner and
Equity Protection Act of 1994, as amended. All provisions of such
Primary
Insurance Policy have been and are being complied with, such policy
is in full
force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid.
No action,
inaction, or event has occurred and no state of facts exists that
has, or will
result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage.
Any Mortgage
Loan subject to a Primary Insurance Policy obligates the Mortgagor
thereunder to
maintain the Primary Insurance Policy and to pay all premiums and
charges in
connection therewith. The Mortgage Rate for the Mortgage Loan as
set forth on
the Mortgage Loan Schedule is net of any such insurance
premium;
(ff)
The Assignment of Mortgage is in recordable form and is acceptable
for
recording (or, in the case of a Co-op Loan, is in a form acceptable
for filing)
under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property
(or
underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) is
located;
(gg)
As to Mortgage Loans that are not secured by an interest in a
leasehold estate, the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged
Property, in
the case of a Co-op Loan), is located in the state identified in
the Mortgage
Loan Schedule and consists of a single parcel of real property with
a detached
single family residence erected thereon, or a two-to four-family
dwelling, or an
individual
51
<PAGE>
condominium unit in a condominium project, or a dwelling unit in a
residential
cooperative housing corporation or an individual unit in an
attached planned
unit development or a detached planned unit development, provided,
however, that
no residence or dwelling is a single parcel of real property with a
mobile home
thereon. As of the date of origination, no portion of the Mortgaged
Property (or
Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan), was
used for
commercial purposes, and since the date of origination, to the best
of the
Seller's knowledge, no portion of the Mortgaged Property (or
Underlying
Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan), is used for
commercial
purposes;
(hh)
If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit or a planned
unit
development (other than a de minimis planned unit development), as
of the date
of origination of the related Mortgage Loan, such condominium or
planned unit
development project met the the Seller's eligibility requirements,
as set forth
in the Seller's underwriting guidelines as of such date; in the
case of each
Co-op Loan, the related residential cooperative housing corporation
complied in
all material respects with the Seller's requirements as set forth
in the the
Seller's underwriting guidelines as of such date;
(ii)
To the best of the Seller's knowledge, there is no pending action
or
proceeding directly involving the Mortgaged Property (or Underlying
Mortgaged

any
environmental law, rule or regulation is an issue;
(jj)
As of the Cut-off Date, the Seller has not granted any interest
rate
relief to the Mortgagor under the Relief Act;
(kk)
No Mortgage Loan was made in connection with the construction
or
rehabilitation of a Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged
Property, in the
case of a Co-op Loan), or facilitating the trade-in or exchange of
a Mortgaged
Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op
Loan);
(ll)
No action has been taken or failed to be taken by Depositor, on
or
prior to the Closing Date, which has resulted or will result in an
exclusion
from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any Primary Insurance
Policy
(including, without limitation, any exclusions, denials or defenses
which would
limit or reduce the availability of the timely payment of the full
amount of the
loss otherwise due thereunder to the insured) whether arising out
of actions,
representations, errors, omissions, negligence, or fraud of the
Depositor, or
for any other reason under such coverage;
(mm)
The Mortgage Loan was originated by a mortgagee approved by the
Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203
and 211 of
the National Housing Act, as amended, a savings and loan
association, a savings
bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or similar
institution
which is supervised and examined by a federal or state
authority;
(nn)
Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than
sixty
(60) days after funds were disbursed in connection with the
Mortgage Loan. The
Mortgage Note is payable on the first day of each month in equal
monthly
installments of principal and interest, with interest calculated
and payable in
arrears, sufficient to amortize the Mortgage Loan fully by the
stated maturity
date, over an original term of not more than thirty years from
commencement of
amortization;
(oo)
As of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan is a "qualified
mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code (without
regard to Treasury
Regulations Section 1.860G-2(f) or any similar rule that provides
that a
defective obligation is a qualified mortgage for a temporary
period);
52
<PAGE>
(pp)
With respect to a Mortgage Loan that is a Co-op Loan, the stock
that
is pledged as security for the Mortgage Loan is held by a Person as
a
tenant-stockholder (as defined in Section 216 of the Code) in a
cooperative
housing corporation (as defined in Section 216 of the Code);
(qq)
As of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan is not the subject of
pending or final foreclosure proceedings and the Seller would not,
based on the
delinquency status of the Mortgage Loan, institute foreclosure
proceedings with
respect to the Mortgage Loan prior to the next scheduled payment
for the
Mortgage Loan;
(rr)
As of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan does not provide for
interest other than at either (i) a single fixed rate in effect
throughout the
term of the Mortgage Loan or (ii) a "variable rate" (within the
meaning of
Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(a)(3)) in effect throughout
the term of the
Mortgage Loan;
(ss)
No Mortgage Loan is a "covered loan" within the meaning of the
Georgia
Fair Lending Act of 2002, as amended;
(tt)
None of the Mortgage Loans are (a) covered by the Home Ownership

loan or
similarly classified using different terminology under any federal,
state or
local law imposing heightened regulatory scrutiny or additional
legal liability
for residential mortgage loans having high interest rates, points
and/or fees
such as predatory lending laws; None of the Mortgage Loans are
"high cost" loans
as defined by the applicable federal, state or local predatory and
abusive
lending laws nor is any Mortgage Loan a "High Cost Loan" or
"Covered Loan," as
applicable (as such terms are defined in the current Standard &
Poor's LEVELS(R)
Glossary which is now version 5.6 revised, appendix E) and no
Mortgage Loan
originated on or after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003 is
governed by the
Georgia Fair Lending Act of 2002, as amended; and
(uu)
As to each Mortgage Loan that is secured by an interest in a

such Mortgage Loan.
Upon
discovery by any of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee of
a
breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which
materially
and adversely affects the value of a Mortgage Loan or the interest
of the
Certificateholders (or which materially and adversely affects the
interests of
the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan in the case of
a
representation and warranty relating to a particular Mortgage
Loan), the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the
other parties
and to the Seller, which notice shall specify the date of
discovery. Pursuant to
the Sale Agreement, the Seller shall within 90 days from the
earlier of (i) the
date of receipt of notice of such breach or (ii) the date the
Seller otherwise
discovers such breach, cure such breach, substitute a Mortgage Loan
pursuant to
the provisions of Section 3.03 or, if the breach relates to a
particular
Mortgage Loan, purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee at the
Purchase
Price. The Purchase Price for the purchased Mortgage Loan shall be
paid to the
Servicer and shall be deposited by the Servicer in the Collection
Account
promptly upon receipt, and, upon receipt by the Trustee of written
notification
of such deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall
promptly
release to the Seller the related Mortgage File, and the Trustee
shall execute
and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment as may be
provided to it
by the Servicer, without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in
the Seller
or its
53
<PAGE>
designee, as the case may be, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant
hereto, and
the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard to
such Mortgage
Loan. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of the Seller
to cure,
substitute or purchase any Mortgage Loan as to which such a breach
has occurred
shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available
to
Certificateholders or the Trustee on behalf of
Certificateholder.
Section 3.02 Representations and Warranties of the Servicer. The
Servicer
represents and warrants to, and covenants with, the Trustee for the
benefit of
the Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date:
(a)
The Servicer is a limited liability company duly chartered and
validly
existing in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware,
and the
Servicer is duly qualified or registered as a foreign corporation
in good
standing in each jurisdiction in which the ownership or lease or
its properties
or the conduct of its business requires such qualification;
(b)
The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Servicer and
its
performance and compliance with the terms of this Agreement will
not violate the
Servicer's certificate of formation or by-laws or constitute a
default (or an
event which, with notice or lapse of time, or both, would
constitute a default)
under, or result in the breach of, any material contract, agreement
or other
instrument to which the Servicer is a party or which may be
applicable to the
Servicer or any of its assets;
(c)
This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery
by
the Trustee and the Depositor, constitutes a valid, legal and
binding obligation
of the Servicer, enforceable against it in accordance with the
terms hereof
subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium and
other laws affecting the enforcement of creditors' rights generally
and to
general principles of equity, regardless of whether such
enforcement is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;
(d)
The Servicer is not in default with respect to any order or decree
of
any court or any order, regulation or demand of any federal, state,
municipal or
governmental agency, which default might have consequences that
would materially
and adversely affect the condition (financial or other) or
operations of the
Servicer or its properties or might have consequences that would
affect its
performance hereunder; and
(e)
No litigation is pending or, to the best of the Servicer's
knowledge,
threatened against the Servicer which would prohibit its entering
into this
Agreement or performing its obligations under this Agreement. It is
understood
and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in
this Section
3.02 shall survive the issuance and delivery of the Certificates
and shall be
continuing as long as any Certificate shall be outstanding or this
Agreement has
been terminated.
Section 3.03 Option to Substitute. If either of the Sellers is
required to
repurchase any Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 2.02 or 3.01, that
Seller may,
at its option, within two years from the Closing Date, remove such
defective
Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and substitute
another mortgage
loan for such defective Mortgage Loan, in lieu of repurchasing such
defective
Mortgage Loan. Any substitute Mortgage Loan shall (a) have a
Principal Balance
at the time of substitution not in excess of the Principal Balance
of the
removed Mortgage Loan (the amount of any difference, plus one
month's interest
thereon at the Mortgage Rate borne by the removed Mortgage Loan,
being paid by
the Seller and deemed to be a Principal Prepayment to be deposited
by the
Servicer in the Collection Account), (b) have a Mortgage Rate not
less than, and
not more than one percentage point greater than, the Mortgage Rate
of the
removed Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if the Mortgage Rate
on the
substitute Mortgage Loan exceeds the Mortgage Rate on the removed
Mortgage Loan,
the amount of that
54
<PAGE>
excess interest (the "Substitute Excess Interest") shall be payable
to the Class
A-R Certificate), (c) have a remaining term to stated maturity not
later than,
and not more than one year less than, the remaining term to stated
maturity of
the removed Mortgage Loan, (d) be, in the reasonable determination
of the
Servicer, of the same type, quality and character (including
location of the
Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case
of a Co-op
Loan)) as the removed Mortgage Loan as if the breach had not
occurred, (e) have
a Loan-to-Value Ratio at origination no greater than that of the
removed
Mortgage Loan and (f) be, in the reasonable determination of the
Seller, in
material compliance with the representations and warranties
contained in the
Sale Agreement and described in Section 3.01, as of the date of
substitution.
The
Seller shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the
withdrawal
of the removed Mortgage Loan from this Agreement and the
substitution of such
substitute Mortgage Loan therefor and shall send a copy of such
amended Mortgage
Loan Schedule to the Servicer and the Trustee. The Sale Agreements
provide that
upon such amendment the Seller shall be deemed to have made as to
such
substitute Mortgage Loan the representations and warranties set
forth in Section
3.01 as of the date of such substitution, which shall be continuing
as long as
any Certificate shall be outstanding or this Agreement has not been
terminated,
and the remedies for breach of any such representation or warranty
shall be as
set forth in Section 3.01. Upon such amendment, the Custodian on
behalf of the
Trustee shall review the Mortgage File delivered to it relating to
the
substitute Mortgage Loan, within the time and in the manner and
with the
remedies specified in Section 2.02, except that for purposes of
this Section
3.03 (other than the two-year period specified in the first
sentence of this
Section), such time shall be measured from the date of the
applicable
substitution. In the event of such a substitution, accrued interest
on the
substitute Mortgage Loan for the month in which the substitution
occurs and any
Principal Prepayments made thereon during such month shall be the
property of
the Trust Fund, and accrued interest for such month on the Mortgage
Loan for
which the substitution is made and any Principal Prepayments made
thereon during
such month shall be the property of the Seller. The principal
payment on a
substitute Mortgage Loan due on the Due Date in the month of
substitution shall
be the property of the Seller, and the principal payment on the
Mortgage Loan
for which the substitution is made due on such date shall be the
property of the
Trust Fund.

paragraph (c) below, the Book-Entry Certificates shall at all times
remain
registered in the name of the Depository or its nominee and at all
times: (i)
registration of the Book-Entry Certificates may not be transferred
as provided
in Section 4.02 except to a successor to the Depository; (ii)
ownership and
transfers of registration of the Book-Entry Certificates on the
books of the
Depository shall be governed by applicable rules established
55
<PAGE>
by the Depository; (iii) the Depository may collect its usual and
customary
fees, charges and expenses from its Depository Participants; (iv)
the Paying
Agent and the Trustee shall deal with the Depository, Depository
Participants
and Indirect Participants as representatives of the Certificate
Owners of the
Book-Entry Certificates for purposes of exercising the rights of
such Holders
under this Agreement, and requests and directions for and votes of
such
representatives shall not be deemed to be inconsistent if they are
made with
respect to different Certificate Owners; and (v) the Paying Agent
and the
Trustee may rely and shall be fully protected in relying upon
information
furnished by the Depository with respect to its Depository
Participants and
furnished by the Depository Participants with respect to Indirect
Participants
and persons shown on the books of such Indirect Participants as
direct or
indirect Certificate Owners. The Depository Agreement provides that
the
Depository shall maintain book-entry records with respect to the
Certificate
Owners and with respect to ownership and transfers of such
Certificates.
All
transfers by Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates shall
be
made in accordance with the procedures established by the
Depository Participant
or brokerage firm representing such Certificate Owners. Each
Depository
Participant shall only transfer Book-Entry Certificates of
Certificate Owners it
represents or of brokerage firms for which it acts as agent in
accordance with
the Depository's normal procedures.
(c)
If (i)(A) the Depository advises the Depositor, the Paying Agent or
the
Trustee in writing that the Depository is no longer willing or able
to properly
discharge its responsibilities as Depository and (B) the Trustee,
the Paying
Agent or the Depositor are unable after exercise of their
reasonable best
efforts to locate a qualified successor or (ii) the Depositor at
its option
advises the Trustee in writing that it elects to terminate the
book-entry system
through the Depository, the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been
appointed
under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, shall notify all Certificate
Owners,
through the Depository, of the occurrence of any such event and of
the
availability of definitive, fully registered Certificates (the
"Definitive
Certificates") to Certificate Owners requesting the same. Upon
surrender to the
Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying
Agent, of the Book-Entry Certificates by the Depository for
registration and
receipt by the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed
under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, of an adequate supply of certificates from
the
Depositor, the Trustee or if the Paying Agent is appointed under
Section 4.05,
the Paying Agent shall issue the Definitive Certificates based on
information
received from the Depository. Neither the Depositor, the Servicer,
the Paying
Agent nor the Trustee shall be liable for any delay in delivery of
such
instructions and may conclusively rely on, and shall be protected
in relying on,
such instructions.
(d)
The Certificates (other than the Class A-R Certificate) shall
be
issuable in the minimum original dollar denominations (and integral
multiples of
$1,000.00 in excess of such amount) and aggregate original dollar
denominations
per Class (or in the case of the Class 1-AX and 2-AX Certificates,
in the
minimum denominations based upon the Class 1-AX Notional Amount and
the Class
2-AX Notional Amount, respectively) as set forth in the following
table (except
that, if necessary, in order to aggregate the Original Certificate
Principal
Balance of a Class, one Certificate of such Class will be issued in
a different
denomination). A single Class A-R Certificate will be issued in
definitive form
in a $100 denomination.

(1) The Class 1-AX and
Class 2-AX Certificates are interest-only certificates,
have
no principal balance, are not entitled to payments of principal
and
will
bear interest on their notional amounts. The initial notional
amounts
of
the Class 1-AX and Class 2-AX Certificates will be
approximately
$60,146,543 and $17,066,143, respectively.
(2) The Class A-R
Certificate represents the residual interest in each of the
REMIC Pools.
(3) The Class A-P
Certificates consist of two components. The original
principal amount of Class A-P Component One is $167,981.00 and the
original
principal amount of Class A-P Component Two is $71,231.00.
The
Certificates shall be signed by manual or facsimile signature on
behalf
of the Depositor by an officer of the Depositor. Certificates
bearing the manual
or facsimile signatures of individuals who were at the time of
signature
officers of the Depositor shall bind the Depositor, notwithstanding
that such
individuals or any of them have ceased to be an officer prior to
the
authentication and delivery of such Certificate or did not hold
such offices at
the date of such Certificates. No Certificate shall be entitled to
any benefit
under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there
appears on such
Certificate a manual authentication by an officer of the Trustee
(or if an
Authenticating Agent has been appointed pursuant to Section 4.06,
the
Authenticating Agent) and such authentication upon any Certificate
shall be
conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate
has been duly
authenticated and delivered hereunder. All Certificates shall be
dated the date
of their authentication.

Section 4.02 Registration of Transfer and Exchange of
Certificates.
(a)
The Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under
Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, shall cause to be kept a certificate
register (the
"Certificate Register") in which, subject to such reasonable
regulations as it
may prescribe, the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed
under
Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, shall provide for the registration
of
Certificates and of transfers and exchanges of Certificates as
herein provided.
(b)
Upon surrender for registration of transfer of any Certificate at
any
office or agency of the Trustee, or if a Paying Agent has been
appointed
hereunder pursuant to Section 4.05, the Paying Agent maintained for
such
purpose, the Depositor shall execute and the Trustee or if an
Authenticating
Agent is appointed under Section 4.06, the Authenticating Agent
shall
authenticate and deliver, in the name of the designated transferee
or
transferees, a Certificate of a like Class and aggregate Percentage
Interest and
dated the date of authentication by the Authenticating Agent.
(c)
No transfer of a Class B-3, Class B-4 or Class B-5 Certificate
shall be
made unless such transfer is made pursuant to an effective
registration
statement or otherwise in accordance with the requirements under
the Securities
Act. If such a transfer is to be made in reliance upon an exemption
from said
Act, (i) the Depositor may require (except with respect to the
initial transfer
of a Class B-3, Class B-4 or Class B-5 Certificate from J.P. Morgan
Securities
Inc. and except if the transferee executes a certificate
substantially in the
form of Exhibit H hereto) a written opinion of independent counsel
acceptable to
and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor
and the
Trustee that such transfer may be made pursuant to an exemption,
describing the
applicable exemption and the basis therefor, from said Act and laws
or is being
made pursuant to said Act and laws, which opinion of counsel shall
not be an
expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor or the
Servicer, and (ii)
the Depositor shall require the transferee to execute a
certification
substantially in the form of Exhibit H or Exhibit I.
(d)
(i) No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate or a Class
A-R
Certificate shall be made unless the prospective transferee
provides the
Depositor and the Trustee with (I) a representation as set forth in
Exhibit K
for Class A-R Certificates or in Exhibit M for ERISA Restricted
Certificates to
the effect that such transferee is not an employee benefit plan
subject to Title
I of ERISA, a plan subject to Section 4975 of the Code or a plan or
arrangement
subject to any provisions under any federal, state, local, non-U.S.
or other
laws or regulations that are substantively similar to the foregoing
provisions
of ERISA or the Code ("Similar Law") (collectively, a "Plan"), and
is not
directly or indirectly acquiring the Certificate for, on behalf of
or with any
assets of any such Plan, or (II) solely in the case of an ERISA
Restricted
Certificate, (A) if the Certificate has been the subject of an
ERISA-Qualifying
Underwriting, a representation as set forth in Exhibit M that such
transferee is
an insurance company that is acquiring the ERISA-Restricted
Certificate with
assets contained in an "insurance company general account," as
defined in
Section V(E) of Prohibited Transaction Class Exemption ("PTCE")
95-60, and the
acquisition and holding of the Certificate are covered and exempt
under Sections
I and III of PTCE 95-60, or (B) solely in the case of a Definitive
Certificate,
an Opinion of Counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Depositor and
the Trustee
to the effect that the acquisition and holding of such Certificate
will not
constitute or result in a nonexempt prohibited transaction under
ERISA or the
Code, or a violation of Similar Law, and will not subject the
Depositor, the
Servicer or the Trustee to any obligation in addition to those
expressly
undertaken in this Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be
an expense
of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee.
(ii) Except in the case of a Definitive Certificate, the
representations set forth in paragraph (i) of this Subsection
4.02(d), other
than subparagraph (i)(II)(B), shall be deemed to have been made to
the Depositor
and the Trustee by the transferee's acceptance of an ERISA
Restricted
Certificate or a Class A-R Certificate (or the acceptance by a
Certificate Owner
of the beneficial interest in any Class of ERISA Restricted
Certificates
58
<PAGE>
or a Class A-R Certificate). Notwithstanding any other provision
herein to the
contrary, any purported transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate
or a Class
A-R Certificate to or on behalf of a Plan without the delivery to
the Depositor
of a representation or an Opinion of Counsel reasonably
satisfactory to the
Depositor and the Trustee as described above shall be void and of
no effect.
None of the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trustee shall be under
any liability
to any Person for any registration or transfer of any ERISA
Restricted
Certificate or Class A-R Certificate that is in fact not permitted
by this
Section 4.02(d) nor shall the Paying Agent be under any liability
for making any
payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking
any other
action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this
Agreement so
long as the transfer was registered in accordance with the
foregoing
requirements. The Depositor, Servicer, Paying Agent and/or Trustee
shall be
entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any
ERISA Restricted
Certificate or Class A-R Certificate that was in fact a Plan and
that held such
Certificate in violation of this Section 4.02(d) all payments made
on such ERISA
Restricted Certificate or Class A-R Certificate at and after the
time it
commenced such holding. Any such payments so recovered shall be
paid and
delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that is
not a Plan.
(e)
At the option of a Certificateholder, a Certificate may be
exchanged
for another Certificate or Certificates of authorized denominations
of a like
Class, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged at any
office or agency
of the Trustee, or if a Paying Agent has been appointed under
Section 4.05, the
Paying Agent, maintained for such purpose. Whenever the Certificate
is so
surrendered for exchange, the Depositor shall execute and the
Authenticating
Agent shall authenticate and deliver, the Certificate which the
Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive. Every
Certificate
presented or surrendered for transfer or exchange shall (if so
required by the
Authenticating Agent) be duly endorsed by, or be accompanied by a
written
instrument of transfer in the form satisfactory to the
Authenticating Agent duly
executed by, the Holder thereof or his attorney duly authorized in
writing.
(f)
No service charge shall be made to the Holder for any transfer
or
exchange of a Certificate, but the Servicer may require payment by
the
Certificateholders of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
governmental charge
that may be imposed in connection with any transfer or exchange of
such
Certificate.
(g)
All Certificates surrendered for transfer or exchange shall be
destroyed by the Trustee or if a Paying Agent has been appointed
under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, in accordance with the Trustee's or, if a
Paying Agent
has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent's, standard
procedures.
(h)
[Reserved].
(i) A Disqualified
Organization is prohibited from acquiring beneficial
ownership of a Class A-R Certificate. Notwithstanding anything to
the contrary
contained herein, (i) unless and until the Servicer and the Trustee
shall have
received an Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to it in form and
substance, to the
effect that the absence of the conditions contained in this Section
4.02(i)
would not result in the imposition of federal tax upon any REMIC
created
hereunder or cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify
as a REMIC, no
transfer, sale or other disposition of the Class A-R Certificate
(including for
purposes of this section any beneficial interest therein) may be
made without
the express written consent of the Certificate Registrar or, if no
Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee, which consent is to be granted
by the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed,
the Trustee
only upon compliance with the requirements of this Section and (ii)
no transfer,
sale or other disposition of the Class A-R Certificate (or any
beneficial
interest therein) may be made to a Person who is not a U.S. Person
unless such
Person furnishes the transferor, the Certificate Registrar and the
Trustee, with
a duly
59
<PAGE>
completed and effective Form W-8ECI (or any successor thereto) or
an Opinion of
Counsel to the effect that such transfer is in accordance with the
requirements
of the Code and that the transfer will not be disregarded for
federal income tax
purposes. As a condition to granting its consent to a transfer of a
Class A-R
Certificate, the Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is
appointed, the Trustee, shall require the proposed transferee of
such
Certificate (including, in the case of the initial issuance of the
Class A-R
Certificate, the initial Holder thereof) to execute a letter and
affidavit
substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit K and shall
require the
proposed transferor (other than in the case of the transfer to the
initial
Holder) of such Certificate to execute a letter substantially in
the form
attached hereto as Exhibit K-1. In the absence of a contrary
instruction from
the transferor of such Certificate, declaration (11) in the
affidavit in Exhibit
K may be left blank. If the transferor requests by written notice
to the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed,
the Trustee,
prior to the date of the proposed transfer that one of the two
other forms of
declaration (11) of such affidavit be used, then the Certificate
Registrar or,
if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee, shall
require that such
form of declaration (11) be included in such affidavit.
As a
condition to the granting of the consent referred to in this
Section
4.02(i), prior to the transfer, sale, pledge, hypothecation or
other disposition
of the Class A-R Certificate or any interest therein, the
Certificate Registrar
or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee shall
require that (1)
the proposed transferee deliver to the Trustee or Certificate
Registrar, as
applicable, its taxpayer identification number and state, under
penalties of
perjury that such number is the social security or employer
identification
number, as the case may be, of the transferee or provide an
affidavit under
penalties of perjury stating that as of the date of such transfer
such
transferee is not and has no intention of becoming a Disqualified
Organization;
(2) the proposed transferee deliver to the Trustee or Certificate
Registrar, as
applicable, an affidavit stating (i) that such transferee is not
acquiring such
Class A-R Certificate as an agent, broker, nominee, or middleman
for a
Disqualified Organization, (ii) if the Class A-R Certificate is a
"non-economic
residual interest" within the meaning of Treas. Reg. Section
1.860E-1(c)(2), (X)
that no purpose of the acquisition of the Class A-R Certificate is
to avoid or
impede the assessment or collection of tax, (Y) that such
transferee has
historically paid its debts as they came due and will continue to
pay its debts
as they come due, and (Z) that such transferee represents that it
understands
that, as the holder of the non-economic residual interest, the
transferee may
incur tax liabilities in excess of any cash flows generated by the
interest and
that the transferee intends to pay taxes associated with holding
the residual
interest, and (iii) unless the Certificate Registrar or, if no
Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee consents to the transfer of the
Class A-R
Certificate to a Person who is not a U.S. Person and who has
furnished either a
duly completed and effective Form W-8ECI (or any successor thereto)
or an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the transfer will not be
disregarded for
federal income tax purposes, that it is a U.S. Person; (3) if so
requested by
the transferor in written notice provided to the Certificate
Registrar or, if no
Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee, prior to the date
of the
proposed transfer, the proposed transferee deliver to the Trustee
or Certificate
Registrar, as applicable, an affidavit that includes a declaration
made in the
form of declaration (11) in the affidavit set forth in Exhibit K
requested by
the transferor; and (4) the transferor deliver to the Certificate
Registrar or,
if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee a written
certification
that as of the date of such transfer it has no knowledge and no
reason to know
that the affirmations described in clauses (1), (2) and (3) were
false. The
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed,
the Trustee
shall not grant the consent referred to in this Section 4.02(i) if
it has actual
knowledge that any statement made in the affidavit issued pursuant
to the
preceding sentence is not true. Notwithstanding any purported
transfer, sale or
other disposition of the Class A-R Certificate to a Disqualified
Organization or
in violation of the provisions of this Section 4.02(i), such
transfer, sale or
other disposition shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect
whatsoever
and such Disqualified Organization shall not be deemed to be a
Class A-R
Certificateholder for any purpose hereunder, including, but not
limited to, the
receipt of distributions on such Class A-R Certificate. If any
purported
transfer shall be in violation of the provisions of this Section
4.02(i) then
the prior Holder of the Class A-R Certificate shall, upon discovery
that the
transfer of such Class A-R
60
<PAGE>
Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section 4.02(i), be
restored to
all rights and obligations as a Holder thereof retroactive to the
date of the
purported transfer of such Class A-R Certificate. The Trustee, the
Servicer and
the Certificate Registrar shall be under no liability to any Person
for any
registration or transfer of a Class A-R Certificate that is not
permitted by
this Section 4.02(i) or for making payments due on such Class A-R
Certificate to
the purported Holder thereof or taking any other action with
respect to such
purported Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as
the transfer
was not registered under the written certification of the
Certificate Registrar
or, if no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee as
described in this
Section 4.02(i). The prior Holder shall be entitled to recover from
any
purported Holder of a Class A-R Certificate that was in fact not a
permitted
purported transferee under this Section 4.02(i) at the time it
became a
purported Holder all payments made to such purported Holder on such
Class A-R
Certificate; provided that the Servicer shall not be responsible
for such
recovery. Each Class A-R Certificateholder, by the acceptance of
the Class A-R
Certificate, shall be deemed for all purposes to have consented to
the
provisions of this Section 4.02(i) and to any amendment to this
Agreement deemed
necessary by counsel of the Trustee or the Servicer to ensure that
the Class A-R
Certificate is not transferred to a Disqualified Organization and
that any
transfer of such Class A-R Certificate will not cause the
imposition of a tax
upon any REMIC created hereunder or cause any REMIC created
hereunder to fail to
qualify as a REMIC. The restrictions on transfer of the Class A-R
Certificate
will cease to apply and be void upon receipt by the Certificate
Registrar or, if
no Certificate Registrar is appointed, the Trustee of an Opinion of
Counsel to
the effect that such restrictions on transfer are no longer
necessary to avoid
the risk of material federal taxation to any REMIC created
hereunder or prevent
any REMIC created hereunder from qualifying as a REMIC.
(j)
The Servicer shall make available upon written request to each
Holder
and each proposed transferee of a Class B-3, Class B-4 or Class B-5
Certificate
such information as may be required to permit the proposed transfer
to be
effected pursuant to Rule 144A under the Securities Act.
Section 4.03 Mutilated, Destroyed, Lost or Stolen Certificates. If
(a) any
mutilated Certificate is surrendered to the Trustee or, if a Paying
Agent has
been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, or the Trustee
or, if a
Paying Agent has been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying
Agent, receives
evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of
any
Certificate, and (b) there is delivered to the Trustee or, if a
Paying Agent has
been appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, such security
or indemnity
as may be required by it to save it harmless, then, in the absence
of notice to
the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the
Paying Agent, that such Certificate has been acquired by a bona
fide purchaser,
the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the
Paying Agent, shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in
lieu of any
such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new
Certificate of like
tenor and Class. Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under
this Section,
the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the
Paying Agent, may require of the Certificateholder the payment of a
sum
sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may
be imposed in
relation thereto and any other expenses connected therewith. Any
replacement
Certificate of any Class issued pursuant to this Section shall
constitute
complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership of the Percentage
Interest in
the distributions to which the Certificateholders of such Class are
entitled, as
if originally issued, whether or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen
Certificate shall be found at any time, and such mutilated,
destroyed, lost or
stolen Certificate shall be of no force or effect under this
Agreement, to the
extent permitted by law.
Section 4.04 Persons Deemed Owners. Prior to due presentation of
a
Certificate of any Class for registration of transfer, the
Depositor, the
Servicer, the Paying Agent and the Trustee may treat the Person in
whose name
any Certificate is registered on the Record Date as the owner of
such
Certificate and the Percentage Interest in the distributions to
which the
Certificateholders of such Class are entitled on the relevant date
as the Holder
of such Certificate and the Percentage Interest represented by
such
61
<PAGE>
Certificate for the purpose of receiving remittances pursuant to
Section 6.01
and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Depositor,
the Servicer,
the Paying Agent nor the Trustee shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.
Section 4.05 Appointment of Paying Agent and Certificate
Registrar;
Certificate Account. The Trustee shall appoint a Paying Agent and a
Certificate
Registrar (the "Certificate Registrar") hereunder, provided such
Paying Agent
and such Certificate Registrar shall not be the Depositor, any
Seller, or an
Affiliate of the Depositor or any Seller. No later than two
Business Days prior
to each Distribution Date, the Servicer shall deposit or cause to
be deposited
with the Paying Agent from funds on deposit in the Collection
Account a sum up
to the Available Distribution Amount, such sum to be held in trust
for the
benefit of Certificateholders in a segregated account (the
"Certificate
Account") which shall be an Eligible Account in the name of "The
Bank of New
York Trust Company, N.A., as Trustee, in trust for and for the
benefit of the
Certificateholders of Multi-Class Mortgage Pass-Through
Certificates, Chase
Mortgage Finance Corporation, Series 2006-S3 - Certificate
Account". The Paying
Agent shall establish such Certificate Account with a commercial
bank, a savings
bank or a savings and loan association. The Paying Agent may invest
moneys in
the Certificate Account in Eligible Investments, which shall mature
not later
than a date sufficient to make payment on the Distribution Date
next following
the date of such investment and shall not be sold or disposed of
prior to
maturity. All income and gain realized from any such investment
shall be for the
benefit of the Paying Agent as additional compensation and shall be
subject to
its withdrawal or order from time to time. The amount of any losses
incurred in
respect of any such investments (to the extent not offset by income
from other
such investments) shall be deposited in the Certificate Account by
the Paying
Agent out of its own funds immediately as realized. The Servicer
shall cause the
Paying Agent to perform each of the obligations of the Paying Agent
set forth
herein and shall be liable to the Trustee and the
Certificateholders for failure
of the Paying Agent to perform such obligations. So long as the
Paying Agent is
a party other than the Trustee, the Trustee shall have no liability
in
connection with the performance or failure of performance of the
Paying Agent.
The Trustee designates The Bank of New York Trust Company, N.A. as
the initial
Paying Agent and initial Certificate Registrar. Only the Trustee
may remove the
Paying Agent and Certificate Registrar and may do so at will,
provided that the
Trustee gives 20 days' prior written notice of such removal to the
Paying Agent
and Certificate Registrar and the Rating Agencies.
The
Paying Agent will hold all sums held by it for the payment to
Certificateholders in trust for the benefit of the
Certificateholders entitled
thereto until such sums shall be paid to such
Certificateholders.
Section 4.06 Authenticating Agents.
(a)
The Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents (each,
an
"Authenticating Agent") which shall be authorized to act on behalf
of the
Trustee in authenticating the Certificates. Wherever reference is
made in this
Agreement to the authentication of Certificates by the Trustee or
the Trustee's
certificate of authentication, such reference shall be deemed to
include
authentication on behalf of the Trustee by an Authenticating Agent
and a
certificate of authentication executed on behalf of the Trustee by
an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating Agent must be an entity
organized and
doing business under the laws of the United States of America or of
any state,
having a combined capital and surplus of at least $15,000,000,
authorized under
such laws to do a trust business and subject to supervision or
examination by
federal or state authorities. So long as the Authenticating Agent
is a party
other than the Trustee, the Trustee shall have no liability in
connection with
the performance or failure of performance of the Authenticating
Agent. The
Trustee hereby appoints the Paying Agent as the initial
Authenticating Agent.

(b)
Any Person into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged or
converted or with which it may be consolidated, or any Person
resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to which any Authenticating
Agent shall be a
party, or any Person succeeding to the corporate agency business of
any
Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be the Authenticating Agent
without the
execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of
the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent.
(c)
Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at least
30
days' advance written notice of resignation to the Trustee and the
Depositor.
The Trustee may at any time terminate the agency of any
Authenticating Agent by
giving written notice of termination to such Authenticating Agent
and the
Depositor. Upon receiving a notice of resignation or upon such a
termination, or
in case at any time any Authenticating Agent shall cease to be
eligible in
accordance within the provisions of this Section 4.06, the Trustee
may appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent, shall give written notice of such
appointment to
the Depositor and shall mail notice of such appointment to all
Holders of
Certificates. Any successor Authenticating Agent upon acceptance of
its
appointment hereunder shall become vested with all the rights,
powers, duties
and responsibilities of its predecessor hereunder, with like effect
as if
originally named as Authenticating Agent. No successor
Authenticating Agent
shall be appointed unless eligible under the provisions of this
Section 4.06. No
Authenticating Agent shall have responsibility or liability for any
action taken
by it as such at the direction of the Trustee. Each of the
Authenticating Agent,
Certificate Registrar and Paying Agent shall be afforded the same
rights,
protections and indemnities as the Trustee as set forth under
Article VIII
hereunder.

ARTICLE V
ADMINISTRATION AND
SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 5.01 Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall
service
and administer the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and
authority,
acting alone or through Sub-Servicers as provided in Section 5.02,
to do any and
all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection
with such
servicing and administration, all in accordance with Accepted
Servicing
Practices. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Servicer in its
own name or in the name of a Sub-Servicer shall, pursuant to a
power of attorney
granted hereby by the Trustee for such purposes, when the Servicer
or the
Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in its
best judgment,
to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the
Trustee or
any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or
cancellation, or of
partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable
instruments, with
respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the related
Mortgaged
Properties; provided, however, that subject to the provisions of
this paragraph,
the Servicer may allow a modification with respect to a Mortgage
Loan if the
Servicer would take such action in the ordinary course of its
business if it
were the owner of the Mortgage Loan. The Servicer will indemnify
the Trustee for
any misuse of such power of attorney provided hereunder. The
Servicer may agree
to a modification of any Mortgage Loan (the "Relevant Mortgage
Loan") upon the
request of the related Mortgagor, provided that (i) the
modification is in lieu
of a refinancing and the Mortgage Rate on the Relevant Mortgage
Loan, as
modified, is approximately a prevailing market rate of
newly-originated mortgage
loans having similar terms, (ii) the aggregate of the adjusted
bases of all
Modified Mortgage Loans (including the Relevant Mortgage Loans)
plus the
aggregate adjusted bases of any assets that are not qualified
mortgages or
permitted investments under Section 860G(a) of the Code that are
assets of the
Trust Fund established hereunder at all times on any day is less
than one
percent of the aggregate of the adjusted bases of all assets of the
Trust Fund
(including such Modified Mortgage Loans) on such day, and (iii) the
Servicer
purchases the Relevant Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund as
described below.
Effective immediately
63
<PAGE>
after such modification, and, in any event, on the same Business
Day on which
the modification occurs, all right, title and interest of the
Trustee in and to
the Modified Mortgage Loan shall automatically be deemed
transferred and
assigned to the Servicer and all benefits and burdens of ownership
thereof,
including without limitation the right to accrued interest thereon
from and
including the date of modification and the risk of default thereon,
shall pass
to the Servicer. To confirm such transfer and assignment, the
Servicer, as
servicer hereunder, as soon as practicable shall execute an
instrument of
assignment of the Modified Mortgage Loan without recourse in
customary form to
the Servicer in its individual capacity. The Servicer shall deposit
the Purchase
Price for any Modified Mortgage Loan in the Collection Account
pursuant to
Section 5.08. Upon receipt by the Trustee of written notification
of any such
deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the Trustee shall release to
the Servicer
the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such
instruments of
transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be
necessary
more fully to vest in the Servicer any Modified Mortgage Loan
previously
transferred and assigned pursuant thereto. Notwithstanding anything
herein to
the contrary, the Servicer shall not make or permit any
modification of a
Mortgage Loan that would cause any REMIC Pool to fail to qualify as
a REMIC for
federal income tax purposes or that would result in the imposition
of any
material tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the
Code.
The
Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee for execution and redelivery
to
the Servicer or, at the request of the Servicer, a Sub-Servicer,
such documents
necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and
administer the
Mortgage Loans and the Trustee shall not be responsible for the
Servicer's
application thereof. The Servicer agrees to remain eligible as
either a FNMA or
FHLMC seller/servicer, or both, for so long as it is Servicer.
All
Servicing Advances made by the Servicer in effecting the timely
payment
of taxes, insurance and assessments on the properties subject to
the Mortgage
Loans shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly
distributions to
Certificateholders, be added to the amount owing under the related
Mortgage
Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so
permit, and such
Servicing Advances shall be recoverable by the Servicer to the
extent permitted
by Sections 5.09 and 5.23.
Section 5.02 Sub-Servicing Agreements Between Servicer and
Sub-Servicers;
Enforcement of Sub-Servicer's Obligations.
(a)
The Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with
Sub-Servicers
for the servicing and administration of all or part of the Mortgage
Loans.
References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the
Servicer in
servicing the Mortgage Loans serviced by it include actions taken
or to be taken
by a Sub-Servicer on behalf of the Servicer. Each Sub-Servicing
Agreement will
be upon such terms and conditions as are not inconsistent with this
Agreement
and as the Servicer and the Sub-Servicer have agreed. The Servicer
hereby agrees
to notify the Trustee in writing promptly upon the appointment of
any
Sub-Servicer. For purposes of this Agreement, the receipt by the
Sub-Servicer of
any amount with respect to a Mortgage Loan (other than amounts
representing
servicing compensation or reimbursement for an advance) shall be
treated as the
receipt by the Servicer of such amount. The Sub-Servicer shall
deposit all such
funds in an Eligible Account.
(b)
As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer, for
the
benefit of the Trustee and the Certificateholders, shall enforce
the obligations
of each Sub-Servicer under the related Sub-Servicing Agreement.
Such
enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution
of claims,
termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements as appropriate, and the
pursuit of other
remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent
and at such
time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would
require were it
the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall pay the
costs of
such enforcement at its own expense but shall be reimbursed
therefor only (i)
from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement only to the
extent, if
any, that such recovery exceeds all
64
<PAGE>
amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a
specific
recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys' fees against the party
against whom
such enforcement is directed.
(c)
The Servicer shall not permit a Sub-Servicer to perform any
servicing
responsibilities hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans
unless that
Sub-Servicer first agrees in writing with the Servicer to deliver
an Assessment
of Compliance and an Accountant's Attestation in such manner and at
such times
that permits the Servicer to comply with Section 5.25 of this
Agreement.
Section 5.03 Successor Sub-Servicers. The Servicer shall be
entitled to
terminate any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may exist in accordance
with the
terms and conditions of such Sub-Servicing Agreement and without
any limitation
by virtue of this Agreement.
Section 5.04 Liability of the Servicer. Notwithstanding any
Sub-Servicing
Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to
agreements or
arrangements between the Servicer and a Sub-Servicer or reference
to actions
taken through a Sub-Servicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall
remain obligated
and liable to the Trustee and Certificateholders for the servicing
and
administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
provisions of this
Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by
virtue of such
Sub-Servicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of
indemnification from
the Sub-Servicer and to the same extent and under the same terms
and conditions
as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the
Mortgage Loans.
The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a
Sub-Servicer
for indemnification of the Servicer and nothing contained in this
Agreement
shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.
Section 5.05 No Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicer and
Trustee
or Certificateholders. Any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be
entered into and
any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans
involving a
Sub-Servicer in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall
be deemed to
be between the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone, and the Trustee
and
Certificateholders shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall
have no claims,
rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the
Sub-Servicer.
Section 5.06 Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreement. If the
Servicer shall
for any reason no longer be the Servicer hereunder (including by
reason of any
Event of Default), the Servicer shall thereupon terminate each
Sub-Servicing
Agreement that may have been entered into, and the Trustee, its
designee or the
successor servicer and the Trustee shall not be deemed to have
assumed any of
the Servicer's interest therein or to have replaced the Servicer as
a party to
any such Sub-Servicing Agreement.
Section 5.07 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments. Continuously
from the
date hereof until the principal and interest on all Mortgage Loans
are paid in
full, the Servicer will proceed diligently to collect all payments
due under
each of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall become due and
payable; provided,
however, that the Servicer may elect, to the extent consistent with
Accepted
Servicing Practices, to waive any late payment charge and shall, to
the extent
such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement, follow
such collection
procedure
