Depositor cannot deliver the Mortgage,
Assignments of Mortgage or assumption,
consolidation or modification, as the case
may be, with evidence of recording
thereon, if applicable, concurrently with
the execution and delivery of this
Agreement solely because of a delay caused
by the public recording office where
such Mortgage, Assignments of Mortgage or
assumption, consolidation or
modification, as the case may be, has been
delivered for recordation, the
Depositor shall deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Custodian written notice
stating that such Mortgage or assumption,
consolidation or modification, as the
case may be, has been delivered to the
appropriate public recording office for
recordation. Thereafter, the Depositor
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to
the Custodian such Mortgage, Assignments of
Mortgage or assumption,
consolidation or modification, as the case
may be, with evidence of recording
indicated thereon, if applicable, upon
receipt thereof from the public recording
office. To the extent any required
endorsement is not contained on a Mortgage

Depositor shall make or cause such
endorsement to be made.
With
respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not a Co-op Loan, none of
the
Depositor, the Servicer, the Certificate
Administrator or the Trustee shall be
obligated to cause to be recorded the
Assignment of Mortgage referred to in this
Section 2.01. With respect to any Co-op

any failure to receive or act on notices
related to such Assignment of Mortgage
The
ownership of each Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and the contents
of

Certificateholders. Neither the Depositor,
the Servicer nor the Certificate
Administrator shall take any action
inconsistent with such ownership and shall
not claim any ownership interest therein.
The Depositor, the Servicer and

relating to the Mortgage Loans not

held in trust by the Servicer, for the
benefit of the Trustee as the owner
thereof, and the Servicer's possession of
the contents of each Mortgage File so
retained is for the sole purpose of
servicing the related Mortgage Loan, and
such retention and possession by the
Servicer is in a custodial capacity only.
The Depositor agrees to take no action
inconsistent with the Trustee's ownership
of the Mortgage Loans, to promptly indicate
to all inquiring parties that the
Mortgage Loans have been sold and to claim
no ownership interest in the Mortgage
Loans.
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 the 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 the 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 the
Seller to the Depositor deemed to be
secured by said pledge and that the Trustee
(or the Custodian on its behalf) 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
- 48 -
<PAGE>
Certificates, the security interest created
hereby shall continue in full
force and effect and the Trustee (or the
Custodian on its behalf) 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 for the benefit of the
Certificateholders its rights and interests under
the Sale Agreement, including the
Depositor's right, title and interest in the
representations and warranties contained in
the Sale Agreement, the rights in
the Transfer Agreement described therein
and the benefit of the repurchase
obligations and the obligation of the
Seller contained in the Sale Agreement 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 Trustee hereby accepts such assignment,
and shall be entitled to exercise
all rights of the Depositor under the Sale
Agreement as if, for such purpose, it
were the Depositor. The foregoing sale,
transfer, assignment, set-over, deposit
and conveyance does not and is not intended
to result in creation or assumption
by the Trustee of any obligation of the
Depositor, the Seller, or any other
Person in connection with the Mortgage
Loans or any other agreement or
instrument relating thereto except as
specifically set forth herein.
SECTION
2.02. Acceptance by the Custodian of the Mortgage Loans.
Except as
set forth in the Exception Report delivered contemporaneously
herewith (the "Exception Report"), the
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee,
acknowledges receipt 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 it holds and will hold 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
Loan to which a material exception
was taken in the Exception Report unless
such exception is cured within 45
Business Days of the Closing Date.
The
Custodian, on behalf of the Trustee, acknowledges receipt of
the
Transfer Agreement, the Bring Down Letter
and the Sale Agreement. The
Certificate Administrator acknowledges
receipt of the Swap Agreement.
The
Custodian agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders and the
NIMs Insurer, to review each Mortgage File
delivered to it within 60 days after
the Closing Date to ascertain and to
certify, within 70 days of the Closing
Date, to the NIMs Insurer, the Depositor,
the Trustee and the Servicer 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 B that have
been conveyed to it. If the Custodian 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 shall promptly (and in any event
within no more than five Business
Days) after such finding so notify the NIMs
Insurer, the Servicer, the Seller,
the Certificate Administrator, the Trustee
and the Depositor. In addition, the
Custodian shall also notify the NIMs
Insurer, the Servicer, the Seller, the
Certificate Administrator, the Trustee and
the Depositor if the original
Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon
with respect to a Mortgage Loan is
not received within 70 days of the Closing
Date; if it has not been received
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 written notice
stating that such Mortgage has been
delivered to the appropriate public
recording office 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 Trustee 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 2.03, within
90 days from the date the Seller was
notified of such omission or defect and, if
the Seller
- 49 -
<PAGE>
does not correct or cure such omission or
defect within such period, that the
Seller purchase such Mortgage Loan from the
Trust Fund within 90 days from the
date the Seller was notified 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
Certificate Account or Collection Account, as
appropriate, promptly upon receipt, and,
upon receipt by the Custodian of
written notification of such deposit signed
by a Servicing Officer, the
Custodian, upon receipt of a Request for
Release, 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 requested
by the Seller and necessary to vest in the
Seller or its designee, as the case
may be, any Mortgage Loan released pursuant
hereto, and neither the Trustee nor
the Custodian shall have any 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 and the NIMs Insurer.
The preceding sentence shall not,
however, limit any remedies available to
the Certificateholders, the NIMs
Insurer, the Depositor or the Trustee
pursuant to the Sale Agreement, the
Transfer Agreement and the Bring-Down
Letter. The Custodian 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,
recordable 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 Servicer, the Certificate
Administrator, the Trustee and the Custodian
shall keep confidential the name of each
Mortgagor except as required by this
Agreement and the Servicer, the Certificate
Administrator, the Trustee and the
Custodian shall not solicit any such
Mortgagor for the purpose of refinancing
the related Mortgage Loan; notwithstanding
anything herein to the contrary, the
foregoing shall not be construed to
prohibit (i) disclosure of any and all
information that is or becomes publicly
known, or information obtained by the
Custodian, Trustee, the Servicer or the
Certificate Administrator from sources
other than the other parties hereto, (ii)
disclosure of any and all information
(A) if required by any applicable law, rule
or regulation, (B) to any government
agency or regulatory body having or
claiming authority to regulate or oversee
any aspects of the Custodian's business or
that of its affiliates, (C) pursuant
to any subpoena, civil investigation demand
or similar demand or request of any
court, regulatory authority, arbitrator or
arbitration to which the Custodian or
any affiliate or an officer, director,
employer or shareholder thereof is a
party or (D) to any affiliate, independent
or internal auditor, agent, employee
or attorney of the Trustee, the Custodian,
the Servicer or the Certificate
Administrator having a need to know the
same, provided that the Trustee, the
Custodian, the Servicer or the Certificate
Administrator, as applicable, advises
such recipient of the confidential nature
of the information being disclosed, or
(iii) any other disclosure authorized by
the Depositor. It is understood and
agreed that all rights and benefits
relating to the solicitation of any
Mortgagors and the attendant rights, title
and interest in and to the list of
Mortgagors and data relating to their
Mortgages shall be retained by the
Servicer.
Within 70
days of the Closing Date, the Custodian shall deliver to the
NIMs Insurer, the Depositor, the Trustee,
the Seller, the Certificate
Administrator and the Servicer the
Custodian's Certification, substantially in
the form of Exhibit D attached hereto,
evidencing the completeness of the
Mortgage Files, with any exceptions noted
thereto.
SECTION
2.03. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the
Depositor.
(a) The Depositor
hereby represents and warrants to the Servicer, the
Certificate Administrator, the
Custodian, the NIMs Insurer and the Trustee as
follows, as of the date
hereof:
(i) The Depositor is
duly organized and is validly existing as a
limited
liability company in good standing under the laws of the State
of
Delaware
and has full power and
- 50 -
<PAGE>
authority
(corporate and other) necessary to own or hold its properties
and to
conduct its business as now conducted by it and to enter into
and
perform
its obligations under this Agreement and the Sale Agreement.
(ii) The Depositor has the full corporate power and authority
to
execute,
deliver and perform, and to enter into and consummate the
transactions contemplated by, this Agreement and the Sale Agreement
and
has duly
authorized, by all necessary corporate action on its part, the
execution,
delivery and performance of this Agreement and the Sale
Agreement;
and this Agreement and the Sale Agreement, assuming the due
authorization, execution and delivery hereof by the other parties
hereto,
constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
Depositor,
enforceable against the Depositor in accordance with its terms,
subject,
as to
enforceability, to (i) bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,
moratorium
and other similar laws affecting creditors' rights generally
and (ii)
general principles of equity, regardless of whether enforcement
is sought
in a proceeding in equity or at law.
(iii)The execution and delivery of this Agreement and the Sale
Agreement
by the
Depositor, the consummation of the transactions contemplated by
this
Agreement and the Sale Agreement, and the fulfillment of or
compliance
with the terms hereof are in the ordinary course of business of
the
Depositor and will not (A) result in a material breach of any term
or
provision
of the charter or by-laws of the Depositor or (B) materially
conflict
with, result in a violation or acceleration of, or result in a
material
default under, the terms of any other material agreement or
instrument
to which the Depositor is a party or by which it may be bound
or (C)
constitute a material violation of any statute, order or
regulation
applicable
to the Depositor of any court, regulatory body, administrative
agency or
governmental body having jurisdiction over the Depositor; and
the
Depositor is not in breach or violation of any material indenture
or
other
material agreement or instrument, or in violation of any
statute,
order or
regulation of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency
or
governmental body having jurisdiction over it which breach or
violation
may
materially impair the Depositor's ability to perform or meet any
of
its
obligations under this Agreement.
(iv) No litigation is pending, or, to the best of the
Depositor's
knowledge,
threatened, against the Depositor that would materially and
adversely
affect the execution, delivery or enforceability of this
Agreement
and the Sale Agreement or the ability of the Depositor to
perform
its obligations under this Agreement and the Sale Agreement in
accordance
with the terms hereof.
(v) No consent,
approval, authorization or order of any court or
governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery
and
performance by the Depositor of, or compliance by the Depositor
with, this
Agreement
and the Sale Agreement or the consummation of the transactions
contemplated hereby, or if any such consent, approval,
authorization or
order is
required, the Depositor has obtained the same. The Depositor
hereby
represents and warrants to the Trustee with respect to each
Mortgage
Loan as of the Closing Date, and following the transfer of the
Mortgage
Loans to it by the Seller, the Depositor had good title to the
Mortgage
Loans and the Mortgage Notes were subject to no offsets,
claims,
liens,
mortgage, pledge, charge, security interest, defenses or
counterclaims.
(b) The
representations and warranties of the Transferor with respect
to the Mortgage Loans contained in
the Transfer Agreement were made as of the
date of the Transfer Agreement and
brought forward to the Closing Date pursuant
to the Bring Down Letter. The
representations and warranties of the Transferor
with respect to the Mortgage Loans
contained in the Bring Down Letter were made
as of the Closing Date. The
representations and warranties of the Seller
- 51 -
<PAGE>
with respect to the Mortgage Loans
contained in the Sale Agreement were made as
of the Closing Date. To the extent
that any fact, condition or event with
respect to a Mortgage Loan
constitutes a breach of both (i) a representation or
warranty of the Transferor under
the Transfer Agreement and (ii) a
representation or warranty of the
Seller under the Sale Agreement, the only
rights or remedies of the Trustee,
the NIMs Insurer or of any
Certificateholder shall be first,
the Trustee's right to enforce the
obligations of the Transferor
under any applicable representation or warranty
made by it and, only if the
Transferor is unable or unwilling to fulfill its
obligations to cure or repurchase
such Mortgage Loan, such party may seek to
enforce any rights it may have
against the Seller under the Sale Agreement.
The Trustee acknowledges that the
Seller shall have no obligation or liability
with respect to any breach of a
representation or warranty made by it with
respect to the Mortgage Loans if
the fact, condition or event constituting
such breach also constitutes a
breach of a representation or warranty made by
the Transferor in the Transfer
Agreement, without regard to whether the
Transferor fulfills its
contractual obligations in respect of such
representation or warranty. The
Trustee also acknowledges that the Seller
shall have no obligation or
liability with respect to any breach of a
representation or warranty made
solely by the Transferor with respect to the
Mortgage Loans, without regard to
whether the Transferor fulfills its
contractual obligations in respect
of such representation or warranty. The
Trustee further acknowledges that
the Depositor shall have no obligation or
liability with respect to any
breach of any representation or warranty with
respect to the Mortgage Loans
(except as set forth in Section 2.03(a)(v))
under any circumstances.
In
addition to the representations and warranties of the Transferor
in
the Transfer Agreement that were brought
forward to the Closing Date pursuant to
the Bring Down Letter, with respect to each
Mortgage Loan, the Transferor made
certain additional covenants regarding such
Mortgage Loan, as set forth in the
Transfer Agreement. With respect to any
breach of such additional covenants that
materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in such
Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall (1) use
reasonable efforts to enforce such
covenant against the Transferor and (2) if
the Seller successfully enforces any
obligation of the Transferor to repurchase
such Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall
repurchase such Mortgage Loan in accordance
with this Section 2.03. If the
Seller does not successfully enforce the
obligation, if any, of the Transferor
to repurchase a Mortgage Loan with respect
to any breach of any such additional
covenants, the Seller shall have no
obligation or right to repurchase or cure
such Mortgage Loan.
(c) Upon discovery by
any of the Depositor, the Certificate
Administrator, the Servicer, the
NIMs Insurer or the Trustee of a breach of any
of such representations and
warranties that adversely and materially affects
the value of the related Mortgage
Loan, Prepayment Charges or the interests of
the Certificateholders, the party
discovering such breach shall give prompt
written notice to the other
parties. Within 90 days of the discovery of such
breach of any representation or
warranty, the Transferor or the Seller, as
applicable, shall either (a) cure
such breach in all material respects, (b)
repurchase such Mortgage Loan or
any property acquired in respect thereof from
the Trustee at the Purchase Price
or (c) within the two year period following
the Closing Date, substitute a
Replacement Mortgage Loan for the affected
Mortgage Loan. In the event of
discovery of a breach of any representation and
warranty of the Transferor or the
Seller, the Trustee shall enforce its rights
under the Transfer Agreement or
the Sale Agreement for the benefit of
Certificateholders and the NIMs
Insurer. If a breach of the representations
and warranties set forth in the
Transfer Agreement exists solely due to the
unenforceability of a Prepayment
Charge, the Trustee shall notify the NIMs
Insurer thereof and not seek to
enforce the repurchase remedy provided for
herein unless directed in writing
to do so by the NIMs Insurer. In the event
of a breach of the representations
and warranties with respect to the Mortgage
Loans set forth in the Transfer
Agreement, the Trustee shall, at the request
of the NIMs Insurer, enforce the
right of the Trust Fund and the NIMs Insurer
to be indemnified for such breach
of representation and warranty. In the event
that such breach relates solely to
the unenforceability of a Prepayment
Charge, amounts received in
respect of such indemnity up to the amount of such
- 52 -
<PAGE>
Prepayment Charge shall be
distributed pursuant to Section 4.04(b)(i). As
provided in the Sale Agreement, if
the Transferor substitutes for a Mortgage
Loan for which there is a breach
of any representations and warranties in the
Transfer Agreement which adversely
and materially affects the value of such
Mortgage Loan and such substitute
mortgage loan is not a Replacement Mortgage
Loan, under the terms of the Sale
Agreement, the Seller will, in exchange for
such substitute Mortgage Loan, (i)
provide the applicable Purchase Price for
the affected Mortgage Loan or (ii)
within two years of the Closing Date,
substitute such affected Mortgage
Loan with a Replacement Mortgage Loan. Any
such substitution shall not be
effected prior to the additional delivery to
the Custodian of a Request for
Release substantially in the form of Exhibit I
and shall not be effected unless
it is within two years of the Startup Day. As
provided in the Sale Agreement,
the Seller indemnifies and holds the Trust
Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor,
the NIMs Insurer, the Certificate
Administrator, the Custodian, the
Servicer and each Certificateholder harmless
against any and all taxes, claims,
losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
reasonable legal fees and related
costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees
and expenses that the Trust Fund,
the Trustee, the Depositor, the NIMs
Insurer, the Certificate
Administrator, the Custodian, the Servicer and any
Certificateholder may sustain in
connection with any actions of the Seller
relating to a repurchase of a
Mortgage Loan other than in compliance with the
terms of this Section 2.03 and the
Sale Agreement, to the extent that any such
action causes (i) any federal or
state tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund or
any REMIC provided for herein,
including without limitation, any federal tax
imposed on "prohibited
transactions" under Section 860F(a)(1) of the Code or
on "contributions after the
startup day" under Section 860G(d)(1) of the Code,
or (ii) any REMIC created
hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time
that any Certificate is
outstanding. In furtherance of the foregoing, if the
Seller is not a member of MERS and
repurchases a Mortgage Loan which is
registered on the MERS System, the
Seller, at its own expense and without any
right of reimbursement, shall
cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment
of the Mortgage in recordable form
to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the
Seller and shall cause such
Mortgage to be removed from registration on the
MERS System in accordance with
MERS' rules and regulations.
With
respect to any Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Depositor
pursuant
to this Agreement, by the Seller pursuant
to the Sale Agreement or by the
Transferor pursuant to the Transfer
Agreement, the principal portion of the
funds received by the Servicer in respect
of such repurchase of a Mortgage Loan
will be considered a Principal Prepayment
and shall be deposited by the Servicer
in the Collection Account pursuant to
Section 3.05 and the Servicer shall notify
the Certificate Administrator of its
receipt of the same. The Custodian, upon
written receipt of notice from the Servicer
of its receipt of the full amount of
the Purchase Price for a Deleted Mortgage
Loan, or upon receipt of the Mortgage
File for a Replacement Mortgage Loan
substituted for a Deleted Mortgage Loan,
shall release or cause to be released and
the Trustee shall reassign to the
Depositor, the Seller or the Transferor, as
applicable, the related Mortgage
File for the Deleted Mortgage Loan and
shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment, in
each case without recourse,
representation or warranty, as shall be
necessary to vest in such party or its
designee or assignee title to any Deleted
Mortgage Loan released pursuant
hereto, free and clear of all security
interests, liens and other encumbrances
created by this Agreement, which
instruments shall be prepared by the Depositor,
the Seller or the Transferor, as
applicable, and neither the Custodian nor the
Certificate Administrator shall have any
further responsibility with respect to
the Mortgage File relating to such Deleted
Mortgage Loan.
With
respect to each Replacement Mortgage Loan to be delivered to
the
Custodian pursuant to the terms of this
Article II in exchange for a Deleted
Mortgage Loan: (i) the Depositor, the
Transferor or the Seller, as applicable,
must deliver to the Custodian the Mortgage
File for the Replacement Mortgage
Loan containing the documents set forth in
Section 2.01 along with a written
certification certifying as to the delivery
of such Mortgage File and containing
the granting language set forth in Section
2.01; and (ii) the Depositor will be
deemed to have made, with respect to such
Replacement Mortgage Loan, each of the
representations and warranties made by it
with respect to the related Deleted
Mortgage Loan. The
- 53 -
<PAGE>
Custodian shall review the Mortgage File
with respect to each Replacement
Mortgage Loan and certify to the NIMs
Insurer and the Depositor that all
documents required by Section 2.01 have
been executed and received.
For any
month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Replacement
Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted
Mortgage Loans, the Seller will determine
the amount (if any) by which the aggregate
principal balance of all such
Replacement Mortgage Loans as of the date
of substitution and the aggregate
Prepayment Charges with respect to such
Replacement Mortgage Loans is less than
the aggregate Stated Principal Balance
(after application of the principal
portion of the Scheduled Payment due in the
month of substitution) and aggregate
Prepayment Charges of all such Deleted
Mortgage Loans. An amount equal to the
aggregate of the deficiencies described in
the preceding sentence (such amount,
the "Substitution Adjustment Amount") plus
an amount equal to any unreimbursed
costs, penalties and/or damages incurred by
the Trust Fund in connection with
any violation relating to such Deleted
Mortgage Loan of any predatory or abusive
lending law shall be remitted by the Seller
to the Servicer for deposit into the
Collection Account on the Determination
Date for the Distribution Date relating
to the Prepayment Period during which the
related Mortgage Loan became required
to be purchased or replaced hereunder.
Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right
to
substitute Mortgage Loans pursuant to this
Article II shall be subject to the
additional limitations that no substitution
of a Replacement Mortgage Loan for a
Deleted Mortgage Loan shall be made unless
the Trustee, the NIMs Insurer and the
Certificate Administrator shall each have
received an Opinion of Counsel (at the
expense of the party seeking to make the
substitution) that, under current law,
such substitution will not (A) affect
adversely the status of any REMIC
established hereunder as a REMIC, or of the
related "regular interests" as
"regular interests" in any such REMIC, or
(B) cause any such REMIC to engage in
a "prohibited transaction" or prohibited
contribution pursuant to the REMIC
Provisions.
The
Servicer shall cause the Mortgage Loan Schedule to be amended
in
accordance with the terms of this Agreement
based on information provided to the
Servicer.
The Seller
shall give or cause to be given written notice to the
Certificateholders and the NIMs Insurer
that such substitution has taken place,
shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to
reflect the removal of such Deleted
Mortgage Loan from the terms of this
Agreement and the substitution of the
Replacement Mortgage Loan or Replacement
Mortgage Loans and shall deliver a copy
of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to
the NIMs Insurer, the Servicer and the
Trustee. Upon such substitution by the
Seller, such Replacement Mortgage Loan or
Replacement Mortgage Loans shall constitute
part of the Mortgage Pool and shall
be subject in all respects to the terms of
this Agreement and the Sale
Agreement, including all applicable
representations and warranties thereof
included in the Sale Agreement as of the
date of substitution..
(d) It is understood
and agreed that the representations, warranties
and indemnification (i) set forth
in this Section 2.03, (ii) of the Seller and
the Depositor set forth in the
Sale Agreement and assigned to the Trustee by
the Depositor hereunder and (iii)
of the Transferor, assigned by the Seller to
the Depositor pursuant to the Sale
Agreement and assigned to the Trustee by the
Depositor hereunder shall each
survive delivery of the Mortgage Files and the
Assignment of Mortgage of each
Mortgage Loan to the Trustee and shall continue
throughout the term of this
Agreement.
(e) The Depositor
shall deliver a copy of the Mortgage Loan Schedule
to the Servicer on the Closing
Date.
