      This Pooling and Servicing Agreement is dated as of October 1, 2005 (the

"Agreement"), among BOND SECURITIZATION, L.L.C., as depositor (the

"Depositor"), CREDIT-BASED ASSET SERVICING AND SECURITIZATION LLC, as seller

(the "Seller"), LITTON LOAN SERVICING LP, as servicer (the "Servicer") and

U.S. BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as trustee (the "Trustee").

 

                             PRELIMINARY STATEMENT

 

      The Depositor intends to sell pass-through certificates (collectively,

the "Certificates"), to be issued hereunder in multiple Classes, which in the

aggregate will evidence the entire beneficial ownership interest in the Trust

Fund created hereunder. The Certificates will consist of nineteen Classes of

Certificates, designated as (i) the Class AF-1, Class AF-2, Class AF-3 and

Class AF-4 Certificates, (ii) the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4,

Class M-5 and Class M-6 Certificates, (iii) the Class B-1, Class B-2, Class

B-3, Class B-4 and Class B-5 Certificates, (iv) the Class N Certificates, (v)

the Class X Certificates, (vi) the Class R Certificates and the Class R-X

Certificates.

 

      As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund (other

than the Cap Contract, the Cap Contract Reserve Fund, the Basis Risk Reserve

Fund and the Grantor Trust) be treated for federal income tax purposes as

eight separate real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a "REMIC" or, in

the alternative, "REMIC 1," "REMIC 2," "REMIC B-1," "REMIC B-2," "REMIC B-3,"

"REMIC B-4," "REMIC B-5," and "REMIC X/N" respectively). The REMIC X/N Regular

Interests represent all of the "regular interests" in REMIC X/N. The REMIC B-5

Regular Interests represent all of the "regular interests" in REMIC B-5. The

REMIC B-4 Regular Interests represent all of the "regular interests" in REMIC

B-4. The REMIC B-3 Regular Interests represent all of the "regular interests"

in REMIC B-3. The REMIC B-2 Regular Interests represent all of the "regular

interests" in REMIC B-2. The REMIC B-1 Regular Interests represent all of the

"regular interests" in REMIC B-1. The REMIC 2 Regular Interests represent all

of the "regular interests" in REMIC 2. The REMIC 1 Regular Interests represent

all of the "regular interests" in REMIC 1. Each Class of Cap Carryover

Certificates (other than the Class B Certificates) represents beneficial

ownership of the Corresponding REMIC 2 Regular Interest and the right to

receive Adjusted Net WAC Carryover Amounts. The Class B-1 Certificates

represent beneficial ownership of the REMIC B-1 Regular Interest and the right

to receive Adjusted Net WAC Carryover Amounts. The Class B-2 Certificates

represent beneficial ownership of the REMIC B-2 Regular Interest and the right

to receive Adjusted Net WAC Carryover Amounts. The Class B-3 Certificates

represent beneficial ownership of the REMIC B-3 Regular Interest and the right

to receive Adjusted Net WAC Carryover Amounts. The Class B-4 Certificates

represent beneficial ownership of the REMIC B-4 Regular Interest and the right

to receive Adjusted Net WAC Carryover Amounts. The Class B-5 Certificates

represent beneficial ownership of the REMIC B-5 Regular Interest and the right

to receive Adjusted Net WAC Carryover Amounts.

 

      For federal income tax purposes, the Class N and Class X Certificates

together represent beneficial ownership of the REMIC X/N X/N Interest subject

to the obligation to pay Adjusted Net WAC Carryover Amounts (other than

Adjusted Net WAC Carryover Amounts funded from the Cap Contract or the Cap

Contract Reserve Fund). Each of the Class R-1 and Class R-2 Interests,

represented collectively by the Class R Certificates, represents the sole

Class of "residual interest" in REMIC 1 and REMIC 2, respectively, for

purposes of the REMIC Provisions. Each of the Class R-B-1, Class R-B-2, Class

R-B-3, Class R-B-4, Class R-B-5 and Class R-X/N Interests, represented

collectively by the Class R-X Certificates, represent the sole Class of

"residual interest" in REMIC B-1, REMIC B-2, REMIC B-3, REMIC B-4, REMIC B-5

and REMIC X/N, respectively, for purposes of the REMIC provisions. The REMIC 1

Regular Interests will be held as assets of REMIC 2. The REMIC 2- X/N Interest

will be held as the sole asset of REMIC X/N. For federal income tax purposes,

the REMIC X/N X/N Interest will be held as the asset of the Grantor Trust. The

REMIC 2-B1 Interest will be held as the sole asset of REMIC B-1. The REMIC

2-B2 Interest will be held as the sole asset of REMIC B-2. The REMIC 2- B3

Interest

 

<PAGE>

 

will be held as the sole asset of REMIC B-3. The REMIC 2-B4 Interest will be

held as the sole asset of REMIC B-4. The REMIC 2-B5 Interest will be held as

the sole asset of REMIC B-5. The "latest possible maturity date" for federal

income tax purposes of all interests created hereby will be the Distribution

Date in November 2035.

the Trustee and the Rating Agencies, the recordation of such assignment is not

necessary to protect the Trustee's interest, on behalf of the Trust, in the

assignments for recording within 30 days of the Closing Date. The Servicer

shall furnish the Trustee, or its designated agent, with a copy of each

Trustee (or the Custodian, as applicable) is under no duty or obligation to

inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or

other papers to determine that they are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate

for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or that

they are other than what they purport to be on their face.

 

      Prior to the first anniversary date of this Agreement the Trustee shall

deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to the Depositor and the Servicer

a final certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-2 evidencing the

completeness of the Mortgage Files, with any applicable exceptions noted

thereon.

 

      If in the process of reviewing the Mortgage Files and making or

preparing, as the case may be, the certifications referred to above, the

Trustee (or the Custodian, as applicable) finds any document or documents

constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or defective in any

material respect, at the conclusion of its review the Trustee (upon its

notification by the Custodian) shall so notify the Seller, the Depositor and

the Servicer. In addition, upon the discovery by the Seller, Depositor, the

Trustee or the Servicer (or upon receipt by the Trustee of written

notification of such breach) of a breach of any of the representations and

warranties made by the Seller in the related Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement

in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects such

Mortgage Loan or the interests of the related Certificateholders in such

Mortgage Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written

notice to the other parties.

 

      The Depositor and the Trustee intend that the assignment and transfer

herein contemplated constitute a sale of the Mortgage Loans and the Related

Documents, conveying good title thereto free and clear of any liens and

encumbrances, from the Depositor to the Trustee and that such property not be

part of the Depositor's estate or property of the Depositor in the event of

any insolvency by the Depositor. In the event that such conveyance is deemed

to be, or to be made as security for, a loan, the parties intend that the

Depositor shall be deemed to have granted and does hereby grant to the

Trustee, on behalf of the Trust, a first priority perfected security interest

in all of the Depositor's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage

Loans and the Related Documents, and that this Agreement shall constitute a

security agreement under applicable law.

 

      The Trustee is hereby directed to execute, deliver and perform its

obligations under the Cap Contract on the Closing Date and thereafter on

behalf of the Holders of the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class

M-5 and Class M-6 Certificates. The Seller, the Servicer, the Depositor and

 

 

                                      51

<PAGE>

 

the Holders of the Class M-1, Class M-2, Class M-3, Class M-4, Class M-5 and

Class M-6 Certificates by acceptance of their Certificates acknowledge and

agree that the Trustee shall execute, deliver and perform its obligations

under the Cap Contract and shall do so solely in its capacity as Trustee of

the Trust Fund and not in its individual capacity.

 

      The Trustee is hereby directed to represent and warrant to the Cap

Contract Counterparty under the Cap Contract that the beneficial owner for

United States federal income tax purposes of payments made under the Cap

Contract is either:

 

            a "U.S. person" (as that term is used in section

            1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of United States Treasury Regulations

            (the "Regulations")) for United States federal income tax

            purposes, or

 

            a "non-U.S. branch of a foreign person" as that term is

            used in section 1.1441-4(a)(3)(ii) of the Regulations for

            United States federal income tax purposes, and a "foreign

            person" as that term is used in section 1.6041-4(a)(4) of

            the Regulations for United States federal income tax

            purposes.

 

      Section 2.03 Repurchase or Substitution of Mortgage Loans by the

Seller.

 

            (a) Upon discovery or receipt of written notice of any materially

defective document in, or that a document is missing from, a Mortgage File or

of the breach by the Seller of any representation, warranty or covenant under

the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or in Section 2.04 in respect of any

Mortgage Loan which materially adversely affects the value of such Mortgage

Loan or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the Trustee (or the

Custodian, as applicable) shall promptly notify the Seller, the Servicer and

the Trustee of such defect, missing document or breach and request that the

Seller deliver such missing document or cure such defect or breach within 120

days or 150 days following the Closing Date, in the case of missing Mortgages

or Assignments from the date the Seller was notified of such missing document,

defect or breach, and if the Seller does not deliver such missing document or

cure such defect or breach in all material respects during such period, the

Trustee shall enforce the Seller's obligation under the Mortgage Loan Purchase

Agreement and inform the Seller of its obligation to repurchase such Mortgage

Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price on or prior to the

Determination Date following the expiration of such 120 day period (subject to

Section 2.03(e)); provided that, in connection with any such breach that is

susceptible to cure but that could not reasonably have been cured within such

120 day or 150 day period, if the Seller shall have commenced to cure such

breach within such 120 day or 150 day period, the Seller shall be permitted to

proceed thereafter diligently and expeditiously to cure the same within 120

days. The Purchase Price for the repurchased Mortgage Loan shall be deposited

in the Collection Account, and the Trustee, upon receipt of written

certification from the Servicer of such deposit, shall release to the Seller

the related Mortgage File and shall execute and deliver such instruments of

transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or

warranty, as the Seller shall furnish to it and as shall be necessary to vest

in the Seller any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and the Trustee shall

have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. In lieu of

repurchasing any such Mortgage Loan as provided above, the Seller may cause

such Mortgage Loan to be removed from the Trust Fund (in which case it shall

become a Defective Mortgage Loan) and substitute one or more Eligible

Substitute Mortgage Loans in the manner and subject to the limitations set

forth in Section 2.03(d). In addition to the foregoing, in the case of a

breach of the Seller's representation set forth in Section 3.01(f) of the

Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall reimburse the Trust for all

costs or damages incurred by the Trust as a result of the violation of such

law (such amount, the "Reimbursement Amount"). The Reimbursement Amount shall

be delivered to the Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account within 10

days from the date the Seller was notified by the Trustee of the amount of

such costs and damages. It is understood and agreed that the obligation of

 

 

 

                                       52

<PAGE>

 

the Seller to pay the Reimbursement Amount and to either cure or repurchase

(or substitute for) any Mortgage Loan as to which a document is missing, a

material defect in a constituent document exists or as to which such a breach

has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against the

Seller respecting such omission, defect or breach available to the Trustee and

the Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders.

 

            (b) [Reserved].

 

            (c) Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer or

receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of any representation,

warranty or covenant of the Servicer set forth in Section 2.05 which

materially and adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in

any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall cure such breach in all material

respects.

 

            (d) Any substitution of Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans for

Defective Mortgage Loans made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) must be effected

prior to the last Business Day that is within two years after the Closing

Date. As to any Defective Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a

Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, such substitution shall be

effected by the Seller delivering to the Trustee for such Eligible Substitute

Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment to the

Trustee, and such other documents and agreements, with all necessary

endorsements thereon, as are required by Section 2.01, together with an

Officer's Certificate providing that each such Eligible Substitute Mortgage

Loan satisfies the definition thereof and specifying the Substitution

Adjustment Amount (as described below), if any, in connection with such

substitution. The Trustee shall acknowledge receipt for such Eligible

Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and, within ten Business Days thereafter,

shall review (or cause the Custodian to review) such documents as specified in

Section 2.02 and deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to the Servicer,

with respect to such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, a

certification substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit F-1, with

any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Within one year of the date of

substitution, the Trustee shall deliver (or cause the Custodian to deliver) to

the Servicer a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit F-2 hereto

with respect to such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, with any

applicable exceptions noted thereon. Monthly Payments due with respect to

Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution are not part

of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the Seller. For the month of

substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will reflect the collections

and recoveries in respect of such Defective Mortgage Loan in the Collection

Period preceding the month of substitution and the Depositor or the Seller, as

the case may be, shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts

subsequently received in respect of such Defective Mortgage Loan. The Seller

shall give or cause to be given written notice to the Certificateholders that

such substitution has taken place, shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to

reflect the removal of such Defective Mortgage Loan from the terms of this

Agreement and the substitution of the Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or

Loans and shall deliver a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the

Trustee. Upon such substitution, such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or

Loans shall constitute part of the Mortgage Pool and shall be subject in all

respects to the terms of this Agreement and, in the case of a substitution

effected by the Seller, the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including, in

the case of a substitution effected by the Seller all applicable

representations and warranties thereof included in the Mortgage Loan Purchase

Agreement and all applicable representations and warranties thereof set forth

in Section 2.04, in each case as of the date of substitution.

 

      For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Eligible

Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Defective Mortgage Loans, the

Servicer will determine the amount (the "Substitution Adjustment Amount"), if

any, by which the aggregate Purchase Price of all such Defective Mortgage

Loans exceeds the aggregate, as to each such Eligible Substitute Mortgage

Loan, of the principal balance thereof as of the date of substitution,

together with one month's interest on such principal balance at the

 

 

                                       53

<PAGE>

 

applicable Net Mortgage Interest Rate. On the date of such substitution, the

Seller will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Servicer for deposit in

the Collection Account an amount equal to the Substitution Adjustment Amount,

if any, and the Trustee, upon receipt by it or the Custodian of the related

Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans and certification by the Servicer

of such deposit, shall release to the Seller the related Mortgage File or

Files and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or

assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as the

Seller shall deliver to it and as shall be necessary to vest therein any

Defective Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto.

 

      In addition, the Seller shall obtain at its own expense and deliver to

the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will

not cause (a) any federal tax to be imposed on the Trust Fund, including

without limitation, any federal tax imposed on "prohibited transactions" under

Section 860F(a)(l) of the Code or on "contributions after the startup date"

under Section 860G(d)(l) of the Code, or (b) any REMIC formed under this

Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificate is

outstanding. If such Opinion of Counsel cannot be delivered, then such

substitution may only be effected at such time as the required Opinion of

Counsel can be given.

 

            (e) Upon discovery by the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee that

any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified mortgage" within the

meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact

shall within two Business Days give written notice thereof to the other

parties. In connection therewith, the Seller shall repurchase or, subject to

the limitations set forth in Section 2.03(d), substitute one or more Eligible

Substitute Mortgage Loans for the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of the

earlier of discovery or receipt of such notice with respect to such affected

Mortgage Loan. In addition, upon discovery that a Mortgage Loan is defective

in a manner that would cause it to be a "defective obligation" within the

meaning of Treasury regulations relating to REMICs, the Seller shall cure the

defect or make the required purchase or substitution no later than 90 days

after the discovery of the defect. Any such repurchase or substitution shall

be made in the same manner as set forth in Section 2.03(a), if made by the

Seller. The Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be

released pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms and

conditions, as it would a Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a

representation or warranty.

 

      Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, the parties

hereto acknowledge that the functions of the Trustee with respect to the

custody, acceptance, inspection and release of the Mortgage Files pursuant to

Sections 2.01, 2.02 and 2.03 and preparation and delivery of the

certifications in the form of Exhibit F-1 and Exhibit F-2 shall be performed

by the Custodian pursuant to the terms and conditions of the Custodial

Agreement. The fees and expenses of the Custodian shall be paid by the

Servicer.

 

      Section 2.04 Representations and Warranties of the Seller with Respect

to the Mortgage Loans.

 

      The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee for the benefit

of the Certificateholders that as of the Closing Date or as of such other date

specifically provided herein:

 

             (a) The representations and warranties made by the Seller pursuant

to Section 3.01 of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement are hereby being made

to the Trustee and are true and correct as of the Closing Date.

 

            (b) Any written agreement between the Mortgagor in respect of a

Mortgage Loan and the Servicer modifying such Mortgagor's obligation to make

payments under the Mortgage Loan (such modified Mortgage Loan, a "Modified

Mortgage Loan") involved some assessment of the Mortgagor's ability to repay

the Modified Mortgage Loan.

 

 

                                      54

<PAGE>

 

 

      With respect to the representations and warranties set forth in this

Section 2.04 that are made to the best of the Seller's knowledge or as to

which the Seller has no knowledge, if it is discovered by the Depositor, the

Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee that the substance of such representation

and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and adversely

affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interest therein of the

Certificateholders then, notwithstanding the Seller's lack of knowledge with

respect to the substance of such representation and warranty being inaccurate

at the time the representation or warranty was made, such inaccuracy shall be

deemed a breach of the applicable representation or warranty.

 

      Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller, the Servicer or the Trustee

of a breach of any of the representations and warranties contained in this

Section that materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan

or the interest therein of the Certificateholders, the party discovering the

breach shall give prompt written notice to the others and in no event later

than two Business Days from the date of such discovery. Within ninety days of

its discovery or its receipt of notice of any such missing or materially

defective documentation or any such breach of a representation or warranty,

the Seller shall promptly deliver such missing document or cure such defect or

breach in all material respects, or in the event such defect or breach cannot

be cured, the Seller shall repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or cause the

removal of such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund and substitute for it one or

more Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans, in either case, in accordance with

Section 2.03.

 

      It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set

forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage Files to the

Trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Certificateholders

notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement or assignment. It is

understood and agreed that the obligations of the Seller set forth in Section

2.03(a) and (c) to cure, substitute for or repurchase a Mortgage Loan pursuant

to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and to reimburse the Trust the

Reimbursement Amount, constitute the sole remedies available to the

Certificateholders or to the Trustee on their behalf respecting a breach of

the representations and warranties contained in this Section 2.04.

 

      Section 2.05 Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Servicer.

 

      The Servicer hereby represents, warrants and covenants to the Trustee,

for the benefit of each of the Trustee and the Certificateholders and to the

Depositor that as of the Closing Date or as of such date specifically provided

herein:

 

                  (i) The Servicer is duly organized, validly existing, and in

good standing under the laws of the jurisdiction of its formation and has all

licenses necessary to carry on its business as now being conducted, except for

such licenses, certificates and permits the absence of which, individually or

in the aggregate, would not have a material adverse effect on the ability of

the Servicer to conduct its business as it is presently conducted, and is

licensed, qualified and in good standing in the states where the Mortgaged

Property is located if the laws of such state require licensing or

qualification in order to conduct business of the type conducted by the

Servicer or to ensure the enforceability or validity of each Mortgage Loan;

the Servicer has the power and authority to execute and deliver this Agreement

and to perform in accordance herewith; the execution, delivery and performance

of this Agreement (including all instruments of transfer to be delivered

pursuant to this Agreement) by the Servicer and the consummation of the

transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized; this

Agreement evidences the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the

Servicer, subject to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization,

moratorium or other similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors'

rights generally; and all requisite corporate action has been taken by the

Servicer to make this Agreement valid and binding upon the Servicer in

accordance with its terms;

 

 

                                      55

<PAGE>

 

                  (ii) The consummation of the transactions contemplated by

this Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of the Servicer and will

not result in the breach of any term or provision of the certificate of

formation or the partnership agreement of the Servicer or result in the breach

of any term or provision of, or conflict with or constitute a default under or

result in the acceleration of any obligation under, any agreement, indenture

or loan or credit agreement or other instrument to which the Servicer or its

property is subject, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation,

order, judgment or decree to which the Servicer or its property is subject;

 

                  (iii) The Servicer is an approved servicer of conventional

mortgage loans for Fannie Mae and has the facilities, procedures and

experienced personnel necessary for the sound servicing of mortgage loans of

the same type as the Mortgage Loans. The Servicer is, and shall remain for as

long as it is servicing the Mortgage Loans hereunder, in good standing and to

service mortgage loans for HUD, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, and no event has

occurred, including but not limited to a change in insurance coverage, which

would make the Servicer unable to comply with HUD, Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac

eligibility requirements or which would require notification to any of HUD,

Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac;

 

                  (iv) This Agreement, and all documents and instruments

contemplated hereby which are executed and delivered by the Servicer,

constitute and will constitute valid, legal and binding obligations of the

Servicer, enforceable in accordance with their respective terms, except as the

enforcement thereof may be limited by applicable bankruptcy laws and general

principles of equity;

 

                  (v) The Servicer does not believe, nor does it have any

reason or cause to believe, that it cannot perform each and every covenant

contained in this Agreement;

pending or, to its knowledge, threatened against the Servicer that, either

individually or in the aggregate, may result in any material adverse change in

the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the

Servicer, or in any material impairment of the right or ability of the

Servicer to carry on its business substantially as now conducted, or in any

material liability on the part of the Servicer, or that would draw into

question the validity or enforceability of this Agreement or of any action

taken or to be taken in connection with the obligations of the Servicer

contemplated herein, or that would be likely to impair materially the ability

of the Servicer to perform under the terms of this Agreement;

 

                  (vii) No consent, approval or order of any court or

governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and

performance by the Servicer of or compliance by the Servicer with this

Agreement or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this

Agreement, except for such consents, approvals, authorizations and orders, if

any, that have been obtained;

 

                  (viii) Neither this Agreement nor any information,

certificate of an officer, statement furnished in writing or report delivered

to the Trustee by the Servicer in connection with the transactions

contemplated hereby contains or will contain any untrue statement of a

material fact or omits or will omit to state a material fact necessary in

order to make the statements contained therein, in light of the circumstances

under which they were made, not misleading; and

 

                  (ix) The Servicer has fully furnished, and shall continue to

fully furnish for so long as it is servicing the Mortgage Loans hereunder, in

accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing

regulations, accurate and complete information on the Mortgagor credit files

to Equifax, Experian and Trans Union Credit Information Company on a monthly

basis.

 

 

 

                                      56

      It is understood and agreed that the representations, warranties and

covenants set forth in this Section 2.05 shall survive delivery of the

Mortgage Files to the Trustee and shall inure to the benefit of the Trustee,

Depositor, the Servicer, the Seller or the Trustee of a breach of any of the

foregoing representations, warranties and covenants which materially and

adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or the interests therein of

the Certificateholders, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt

written notice (but in no event later than two Business Days following such

discovery) to the other parties hereto.

 

      Section 2.06 Representations and Warranties of the Depositor.

 

      The Depositor represents and warrants to the Trust and the Trustee on

behalf of the Certificateholders as follows:

 

                  (i) This agreement constitutes a legal, valid and binding

obligation of the Depositor, enforceable against the Depositor in accordance

with its terms, except as enforceability may be limited by applicable

bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws now

general and except as such enforceability may be limited by general principles

of equity (whether considered in a proceeding at law or in equity);

 

                  (ii) Immediately prior to the sale and assignment by the

Depositor to the Trustee on behalf of the Trust of each Mortgage Loan, the
