Each REMIC 4 Interest (other than the Class R-4 Interest) is hereby designated

(1) Each Class A Interest will have a principal balance initially equal to

0.9% of the Assumed Balance ("AB") of its corresponding Loan Group. Each Class

B Interest will have a principal balance initially equal to 0.1% of the AB of

its corresponding Loan Group. The initial principal balance of each Class C

Interest will equal the excess of the Non-PO Percentage of the initial

aggregate principal balance of its corresponding Collateral Allocation Group

over the initial aggregate principal balances of the Class A and Class B

Interests corresponding to such Collateral Allocation Group. On each

Distribution Date following the allocation of scheduled principal, prepayments

and Realized Losses, the Class X-2 Interests will have the notional balance

and pass through rate of the Class X Certificates and the Class PO-1 Interests

will have the principal balances of the Class PO Certificates.

 

(2) The Class R-2 Interest is the sole class of residual interest in REMIC 2.

It has no principal balance and pays no principal or interest.

 

     On each Distribution Date, interest and the Non-PO Percentage of

principal collections shall be distributed with respect to the REMIC 2

Interests in the following manner:

 

(1) Interest is to be distributed with respect to each REMIC 2 Interest

according to the formulas described above;

 

(2) If a Cross-Over Situation does not exist with respect to any Class of

Interests, then Principal Amounts and Realized Losses arising with respect to

each Collateral Allocation Group will be allocated: first to cause the

Collateral Allocation Group's corresponding Class A and Class B to equal,

respectively, 0.9% of the AB and 0.1% of the AB; and second to the Collateral

Allocation Group's corresponding Class C Interest;

 

(3) If a Cross-Over Situation exists with respect to the Class A and B

Interests then:

 

 

 

                                      8

<PAGE>

 

     (a) if the Calculation Rate in respect of such Class A and Class B

     Interests is less than the Pass Through Rate in respect of the

     Subordinate Certificates, Principal Relocation Payments will be made

     proportionately to the outstanding Class A Interests prior to any other

     distributions of principal from each such Collateral Allocation Group;

     and

 

     (b) if the Calculation Rate in respect of such outstanding Class A and

     Class B Interests is greater than the Pass Through Rate in respect of the

     Subordinate Certificates, Principal Relocation Payments will be made

     proportionately to the outstanding Class B Interests prior to any other

     distributions of principal from each such Collateral Allocation Group.

 

In case of either (a) or (b), Principal Relocation Payments will be made so as

to cause the Calculation Rate in respect of the outstanding Class A and B

Interests to equal the Pass Through Rate in respect of the Subordinate

Certificates. With respect to each Collateral Allocation Group, if (and to the

extent that) the sum of (a) the principal payments comprising the Principal

Amount received during the Due Period and (b) the Realized Losses on the

Mortgage Loans in that Collateral Allocation Group, are insufficient to make

the necessary reductions of principal on the Class A and B Interests, then

interest will be added to the Collateral Allocation Group's other REMIC 1

Interests that are not receiving Principal Relocation Payments, in proportion

to their principal balances.

 

     (c) The outstanding aggregate Class A and B Interests will not be reduced

     below 1% of the excess of (i) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of

     the Mortgage Loans as of the end of any Due Period over (ii) the

     Certificate Balance of the Senior Certificates (excluding the Class A-R

     Certificates) as of the related Distribution Date (after taking into

     account distributions of principal on such Distribution Date).

 

     If (and to the extent that) the limitation in paragraph (c) prevents the

     distribution of principal to the Class A and Class B Interests of a

     Collateral Allocation Group, and if the Collateral Allocation Group's

     Class C Interest has already been reduced to zero, then the excess

     principal from that Collateral Allocation Group will be paid to the Class

     C Interests of the other Collateral Allocation Group, the aggregate Class

     A and Class B Interests of which are less than 1% of the AB. If the

     Mortgage Loans in the Collateral Allocation Group of the Class C Interest

     that receives such payment has a Weighted Average Adjusted Net Mortgage

     Rate below the Weighted Average Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate of the

     Mortgage Loans in the Collateral Allocation Group making the payment,

     then the payment will be treated by the REMIC 2 as a Realized Loss.

     Conversely, if the Mortgage Loans in the Loan Group of the Class C

     Interest that receives such payment have a Weighted Average Adjusted Net

     Mortgage Rate above the Weighted Average Adjusted Net Mortgage Rate of

     the Mortgage Loans in the Collateral Allocation Group making the payment,

     then the payment will be treated by the REMIC 2 as a reimbursement for

     prior Realized Losses.

     REMIC 1 will issue a single regular interest corresponding to each

Mortgage Loan having a Net Mortgage Rate less than or equal to 5.00% and two

regular interests (referred to collectively herein as the "Class 1-A

Interests" and the "Class 1-B Interests") for each Mortgage Loan having a Net

Mortgage Rate greater than 5.00% and less than 6.00%.

 

     Each REMIC 1 Regular Interest corresponding to a Mortgage Loan having a

Net Mortgage Rate less than or equal to 5.00% will have a Pass Through Rate of

5.00% and a principal balance, following the allocation of scheduled

principal, prepayments of principal and Realized Losses, equal to the product

of: (i) the Non-PO Percentage of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the

related Mortgage Loan's principal balance. For purposes of the calculating the

Calculation Rate, each of the foregoing REMIC 1 Regular Interest will be

treated as part of Collateral Allocation Group 1.

 

     Each of the Class 1-A Interests will have a Pass Through Rate of 5.00%

and a principal balance, following the allocation of scheduled principal,

prepayments of principal and Realized Losses, equal to the product of: (i)

6.00% minus the Net Mortgage Rate in respect of the related Mortgage Loan,

divided by 1.00%, and (ii) the related Mortgage Loan's principal balance. For

purposes of the calculating the Calculation Rate, each Class 1-A Interest will

be treated as part of Collateral Allocation Group 1.

 

     Each of the Class 1-B Interests will have a Pass Through Rate of 6.00%

and a principal balance, following the allocation of scheduled principal,

prepayments of principal and Realized Losses, equal to the product of: (i) the

Net Mortgage Rate in respect of the related Mortgage Loan minus 5.00%, divided

by 1.00%, and (ii) the related Mortgage Loan's principal balance. For purposes

of the calculating the Calculation Rate, each Class 1-B Interest will be

treated as part of Collateral Allocation Group 2.

 

     REMIC 1 also will issue the Class 1-PO Interest and the Class R-1

Interest. The Class 1-PO Interest will have a principal balance, following the

allocation of scheduled principal, prepayments of principal and Realized

Losses, equal to the principal balance in respect of the Class PO Certificates

and will not be entitled to receive distributions of interest. The Class R-1

Interest is the residual interest and will not be entitled to any

distributions of interest or principal.

cause to be delivered to the Trustee within thirty (30) days following the

Closing Date) for the benefit of the Certificateholders the following

documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so assigned:

 

          (i) (A) the original Mortgage Note endorsed by manual or facsimile

       signature in blank in the following form: "Pay to the order of

       ____________ without recourse," with all intervening endorsements

       showing a complete chain of endorsement from the originator to the

       Person endorsing the Mortgage Note (each such endorsement being

       sufficient to transfer all right, title and interest of the party so

       endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in and to that Mortgage

       Note); or

 

 

 

                                      47

<PAGE>

 

               (B) with respect to any Lost Mortgage Note, a lost note affidavit

       from Countrywide stating that the original Mortgage Note was lost or

       destroyed, together with a copy of such Mortgage Note;

 

          (ii) except as provided below and for each Mortgage Loan that is not

       a MERS Mortgage Loan, the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of such

       Mortgage certified by Countrywide as being a true and complete copy of

       the Mortgage (or, in the case of a Mortgage for which the related

       Mortgaged Property is located in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, a

       true copy of the Mortgage certified as such by the applicable notary)

       and in the case of each MERS Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage,

       noting the presence of the MIN of the Mortgage Loans and either

       language indicating that the Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan if the

       Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan or if the Mortgage Loan was not a MOM Loan

       at origination, the original Mortgage and the assignment thereof to

       MERS, with evidence of recording indicated thereon, or a copy of the

       Mortgage certified by the public recording office in which such

       Mortgage has been recorded;

 

          (iii) in the case of each Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS Mortgage

       Loan, a duly executed assignment of the Mortgage (which may be included

       in a blanket assignment or assignments), together with, except as

       provided below, all interim recorded assignments of such mortgage (each

       such assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be in recordable

       form and sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the

       assignee thereof, under the Mortgage to which the assignment relates);

       provided that, if the related Mortgage has not been returned from the

       applicable public recording office, such assignment of the Mortgage may

       exclude the information to be provided by the recording office;

       provided, further, that such assignment of Mortgage need not be

       delivered in the case of a Mortgage for which the related Mortgaged

       Property is located in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;

 

          (iv) the original or copies of each assumption, modification,

       written assurance or substitution agreement, if any;

 

          (v) except as provided below, the original or duplicate original

       lender's title policy or a printout of the electronic equivalent and

       all riders thereto; and

 

          (vi) in the case of a Cooperative Loan, the originals of the

       following documents or instruments:

 

               (A) The Coop Shares, together with a stock power in blank;

 

               (B) The executed Security Agreement;

 

               (C) The executed Proprietary Lease;

 

               (D) The executed Recognition Agreement;

 

 

 

                                       48

<PAGE>

 

               (E) The executed UCC-1 financing statement with evidence of

       recording thereon which have been filed in all places required to

       perfect the Seller's interest in the Coop Shares and the Proprietary

       Lease; and

 

               (F) The executed UCC-3 financing statements or other appropriate

       UCC financing statements required by state law, evidencing a complete and

       unbroken line from the mortgagee to the Trustee with evidence of

       recording thereon (or in a form suitable for recordation).

 

     In addition, in connection with the assignment of any MERS Mortgage Loan,

each Seller agrees that it will cause, at the Trustee's expense, the MERS(R)

System to indicate that the Mortgage Loans sold by such Seller to the

Depositor have been assigned by that Seller to the Trustee in accordance with

this Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders by including (or

deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans which are repurchased in accordance

with this Agreement) in such computer files the information required by the

MERS(R) System to identify the series of the Certificates issued in connection

with such Mortgage Loans. Each Seller further agrees that it will not, and

will not permit the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it

will not, alter the information referenced in this paragraph with respect to

any Mortgage Loan sold by such Seller to the Depositor during the term of this

Agreement unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance

with the terms of this Agreement.

 

     In the event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan that is not a MERS

Mortgage Loan the Depositor cannot deliver (a) the original recorded Mortgage,

(b) all interim recorded assignments or (c) the lender's title policy

(together with all riders thereto) satisfying the requirements of clause (ii),

(iii) or (v) above, respectively, concurrently with the execution and delivery

hereof because such document or documents have not been returned from the

applicable public recording office in the case of clause (ii) or (iii) above,

or because the title policy has not been delivered to either the Master

Servicer or the Depositor by the applicable title insurer in the case of

clause (v) above, the Depositor shall promptly deliver to the Trustee, in the

case of clause (ii) or (iii) above, such original Mortgage or such interim

assignment, as the case may be, with evidence of recording indicated thereon

upon receipt thereof from the public recording office, or a copy thereof,

certified, if appropriate, by the relevant recording office, but in no event

shall any such delivery of the original Mortgage and each such interim

assignment or a copy thereof, certified, if appropriate, by the relevant

recording office, be made later than one year following the Closing Date, or,

in the case of clause (v) above, no later than 120 days following the Closing

Date; provided, however, in the event the Depositor is unable to deliver by

such date each Mortgage and each such interim assignment by reason of the fact

that any such documents have not been returned by the appropriate recording

office, or, in the case of each such interim assignment, because the related

Mortgage has not been returned by the appropriate recording office, the

Depositor shall deliver such documents to the Trustee as promptly as possible

upon receipt thereof and, in any event, within 720 days following the Closing

Date. The Depositor shall forward or cause to be forwarded to the Trustee (a)

from time to time additional original documents evidencing an assumption or

modification of a Mortgage Loan and (b) any other documents required to be

delivered by the Depositor or the Master Servicer to the Trustee. In the event

that the original Mortgage is not delivered and in connection with the payment

in full of the related Mortgage Loan and the public recording office requires

the presentation of a "lost instruments affidavit and indemnity" or any

equivalent document, because only a copy of the

 

 

 

                                      49

<PAGE>

 

Mortgage can be delivered with the instrument of satisfaction or reconveyance,

the Master Servicer shall execute and deliver or cause to be executed and

delivered such a document to the public recording office. In the case where a

public recording office retains the original recorded Mortgage or in the case

where a Mortgage is lost after recordation in a public recording office,

Countrywide shall deliver to the Trustee a copy of such Mortgage certified by

such public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original

recorded Mortgage.

 

     As promptly as practicable subsequent to such transfer and assignment,

and in any event, within thirty (30) days thereafter, the Trustee shall (i) as

the assignee thereof, affix the following language to each assignment of

Mortgage: "CWALT Series 2005-53T2, The Bank of New York, as trustee", (ii)

cause such assignment to be in proper form for recording in the appropriate

public office for real property records and (iii) cause to be delivered for

recording in the appropriate public office for real property records the

assignments of the Mortgages to the Trustee, except that, with respect to any

assignments of Mortgage as to which the Trustee has not received the

information required to prepare such assignment in recordable form, the

Trustee's obligation to do so and to deliver the same for such recording shall

be as soon as practicable after receipt of such information and in any event

within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof and that the Trustee need not

cause to be recorded any assignment which relates to a Mortgage Loan (a) the

Mortgaged Property and Mortgage File relating to which are located in

California or (b) in any other jurisdiction (including Puerto Rico) under the

laws of which in the opinion of counsel the recordation of such assignment is

not necessary to protect the Trustee's and the Certificateholders' interest in

the related Mortgage Loan.

 

     In the case of Mortgage Loans that have been prepaid in full as of the

Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above documents to the

Trustee, will deposit in the Certificate Account the portion of such payment

that is required to be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant to

Section 3.05 hereof.

 

     Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, within thirty

(30) days after the Closing Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans,

Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and

Park Sienna) shall either (i) deliver to the Depositor, or at the Depositor's

direction, to the Trustee or other designee of the Depositor the Mortgage File

as required pursuant to this Section 2.01 for each Delay Delivery Mortgage

Loan or (ii) either (A) substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the Delay

Delivery Mortgage Loan or (B) repurchase the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan,

which substitution or repurchase shall be accomplished in the manner and

subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03 (treating each Delay

Delivery Mortgage Loan as a Deleted Mortgage Loan for purposes of such Section

2.03); provided, however, that if Countrywide fails to deliver a Mortgage File

for any Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan within the thirty (30) day period

provided in the prior sentence, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf

of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall use its best reasonable

efforts to effect a substitution, rather than a repurchase of, such Deleted

Mortgage Loan and provided further that the cure period provided for in

Section 2.02 or in Section 2.03 shall not apply to the initial delivery of the

Mortgage File for such Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, but rather Countrywide

(on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna)

shall have five (5) Business Days to cure such failure to deliver. At the end

of such thirty (30) day period the Trustee shall send a Delay

 

 

 

                                      50

<PAGE>

 

Delivery Certification for the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered during

such thirty (30) day period in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02.

 

     (d) Neither the Depositor nor the Trust will acquire or hold any Mortgage

Loan that would violate the representations made by Countrywide set forth in

clause (48) of Schedule III-A hereto.

 

     SECTION 2.02. Acceptance by Trustee of the Mortgage Loans.

 

     (a) The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents identified in the

Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F and declares

that it holds and will hold such documents and the other documents delivered

to it constituting the Mortgage Files, and that it holds or will hold such

other assets as are included in the Trust Fund, in trust for the exclusive use

and benefit of all present and future Certificateholders. The Trustee

acknowledges that it will maintain possession of the Mortgage Notes in the

State of California, unless otherwise permitted by the Rating Agencies.

 

     The Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Closing Date to the

Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its own behalf and on

behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) an Initial Certification

in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-1. Based on its review and

examination, and only as to the documents identified in such Initial

Certification, the Trustee acknowledges that such documents appear regular on

their face and relate to such Mortgage Loan. The Trustee shall be under no

duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments,

certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine,

enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have

actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they are other than

what they purport to be on their face.

 

     On or about the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date, the Trustee

shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its

own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) a Delay

Delivery Certification with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the form annexed

hereto as Exhibit G-1, with any applicable exceptions noted thereon. Not later

than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the

Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Seller a Final Certification with

respect to the Mortgage Loans in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit H, with

any applicable exceptions noted thereon.

 

     Not later than 90 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver

to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its own behalf and

on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) a Final Certification

with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit H-1,

with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.

 

     If, in the course of such review, the Trustee finds any document

constituting a part of a Mortgage File which does not meet the requirements of

Section 2.01, the Trustee shall list such as an exception in the Final

Certification; provided, however that the Trustee shall not make any

determination as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all

right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee

thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable

form or is sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to

 

 

 

                                      51

<PAGE>

 

the assignee thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment relates.

Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and

Park Sienna) shall promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from

the date it was so notified of such defect and, if Countrywide does not

correct or cure such defect within such period, Countrywide (on its own behalf

and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall either (a)

substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which

substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions

set forth in Section 2.03, or (b) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee

within 90 days from the date Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of

Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) was notified of such defect in

writing at the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that

in no event shall such substitution or purchase occur more than 540 days from

the Closing Date, except that if the substitution or purchase of a Mortgage

Loan pursuant to this provision is required by reason of a delay in delivery

of any documents by the appropriate recording office, and there is a dispute

between either the Master Servicer or Countrywide (on its own behalf and on

behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) and the Trustee over the

location or status of the recorded document, then such substitution or

purchase shall occur within 720 days from the Closing Date. The Trustee shall

deliver written notice to each Rating Agency within 270 days from the Closing

Date indicating each Mortgage Loan (a) which has not been returned by the

appropriate recording office or (b) as to which there is a dispute as to

location or status of such Mortgage Loan. Such notice shall be delivered every

90 days thereafter until the related Mortgage Loan is returned to the Trustee.

Any such substitution pursuant to (a) above or purchase pursuant to (b) above

shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of

Counsel required by Section 2.05 hereof, if any, and any substitution pursuant

to (a) above shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery to the

Trustee of a Request for Release substantially in the form of Exhibit N. No

substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar month after the

Determination Date for such month. The Purchase Price for any such Mortgage

Loan shall be deposited by Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of

Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) in the Certificate Account on or

prior to the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in

the month following the month of repurchase and, upon receipt of such deposit

and certification with respect thereto in the form of Exhibit N hereto, the

Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to Countrywide (on its own

behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) and shall

execute and deliver at Countrywide's (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park

Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) request such instruments of transfer or

assignment prepared by Countrywide, in each case without recourse, as shall be

necessary to vest in Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park

Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna), or its designee, the Trustee's interest

in any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. If pursuant to the foregoing

provisions Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park

Monaco and Park Sienna) repurchases an Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage

Loan, the Master Servicer shall either (i) cause MERS to execute and deliver

an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from

MERS to Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park

Monaco and Park Sienna) or its designee and shall cause such Mortgage to be

removed from registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with MERS' rules

and regulations or (ii) cause MERS to designate on the MERS(R) System

Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and

Park Sienna) or its designee as the beneficial holder of such Mortgage Loan.

 

     (b) [Reserved].

 

 

 

                                      52

<PAGE>

 

     (c) [Reserved].

 

     (d) The Trustee shall retain possession and custody of each Mortgage File

in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set forth herein.

The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee, upon the execution

or receipt thereof, the originals of such other documents or instruments

constituting the Mortgage File as come into the possession of the Master

Servicer from time to time.

 

     (e) (d) It is understood and agreed that the respective obligations of

each Seller to substitute for or to purchase any Mortgage Loan sold to the

Depositor by it which does not meet the requirements of Section 2.01 above

shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such defect available to the

Trustee, the Depositor and any Certificateholder against that Seller.

 

     SECTION 2.03. Representations, Warranties and Covenants of the Sellers

and the Master Servicer.

 

     (a) Countrywide hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth

in (i) Schedule II-A, Schedule II-B, Schedule II-C and Schedule II-D hereto,

and by this reference incorporated herein, to the Depositor, the Master

Servicer and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date, (ii) Schedule III-A hereto,

and by this reference incorporated herein, to the Depositor, the Master

Servicer and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date, or if so specified therein,

as of the Cut-off Date with respect to all of the Mortgage Loans, and (iii)

Schedule III-B hereto, and by this reference incorporated herein, to the

Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date, or if

so specified therein, as of the Cut-off Date with respect to the Mortgage

Loans that are Countrywide Mortgage Loans. Park Granada hereby makes the

representations and warranties set forth in (i) Schedule II-B hereto, and by

this reference incorporated herein, to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and

the Trustee, as of the Closing Date and (ii) Schedule III-C hereto, and by

this reference incorporated herein, to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and

the Trustee, as of the Closing Date, or if so specified therein, as of the

Cut-off Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are Park Granada Mortgage

Loans. Park Monaco hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth

in (i) Schedule II-C hereto, and by this reference incorporated herein, to the

Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date and

(ii) Schedule III-D hereto, and by this reference incorporated herein, to the

Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date, or if

so specified therein, as of the Cut-off Date with respect to the Mortgage

Loans that are Park Monaco Mortgage Loans. Park Sienna hereby makes the

representations and warranties set forth in (i) Schedule II-D hereto, and by

this reference incorporated herein, to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and

the Trustee, as of the Closing Date and (ii) Schedule III-E hereto, and by

this reference incorporated herein, to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and

the Trustee, as of the Closing Date, or if so specified therein, as of the

Cut-off Date with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are Park Sienna Mortgage

Loans.

 

     (b) The Master Servicer hereby makes the representations and warranties

set forth in Schedule IV hereto, and by this reference incorporated herein to

the Depositor and the Trustee as of the Closing Date.

 

     (c) Upon discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a

representation or warranty with respect to a Mortgage Loan made pursuant to

Section 2.03(a) that materially and

 

 

 

                                      53

<PAGE>

 

adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in that Mortgage

Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt notice thereof to

the other parties. Each Seller hereby covenants that within 90 days of the

earlier of its discovery or its receipt of written notice from any party of a

breach of any representation or warranty with respect to a Mortgage Loan sold

by it pursuant to Section 2.03(a) which materially and adversely affects the

interests of the Certificateholders in that Mortgage Loan, it shall cure such

breach in all material respects, and if such breach is not so cured, shall,

(i) if such 90-day period expires prior to the second anniversary of the

Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan") from the

Trust Fund and substitute in its place a Substitute Mortgage Loan, in the

manner and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section; or (ii)

repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans from the Trustee at

the Purchase Price in the manner set forth below; provided, however, that any

such substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected prior to the

delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05

hereof, if any, and any such substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be

effected prior to the additional delivery to the Trustee of a Request for

Release substantially in the form of Exhibit N and the Mortgage File for any

such Substitute Mortgage Loan. The Seller repurchasing a Mortgage Loan

pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) shall promptly reimburse the Master Servicer

and the Trustee for any expenses reasonably incurred by the Master Servicer or

the Trustee in respect of enforcing the remedies for such breach. With respect

to the representations and warranties described in this Section which are made

to the best of a Seller's knowledge, if it is discovered by either the

Depositor, a Seller 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 interests of the

Certificateholders therein, notwithstanding that Seller's lack of knowledge

with respect to the substance of such representation or warranty, such

inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation or

warranty.

 

     With respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, sold to the

Depositor by a Seller, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park

Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall deliver to the Trustee for the

benefit of the Certificateholders the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the related

assignment of the Mortgage, and such other documents and agreements as are

required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed and the Mortgage

assigned as required by Section 2.01. No substitution is permitted to be made

in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. Scheduled

Payments due with respect to Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of

substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund and will be retained by the

related Seller on the next succeeding Distribution Date. For the month of

substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will include the monthly

payment due on any Deleted Mortgage Loan for such month and thereafter that

Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such

Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan

Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of

such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Substitute Mortgage

Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan

Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Substitute Mortgage Loan

or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and

the related Seller shall be deemed to have made with respect to such

Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution, the

representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 2.03(a) with respect

to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution and the deposit to the

Certificate Account of the amount required to be deposited therein in

connection with such substitution as described in the following paragraph,

 

 

 

                                      54

<PAGE>

 

the Trustee shall release the Mortgage File held for the benefit of the

Certificateholders relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan to the related

Seller and shall execute and deliver at such Seller's direction such

instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by Countrywide (on its own

behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna), in each

case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest title in that Seller, or

its designee, the Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan substituted

for pursuant to this Section 2.03.

 

     For any month in which a Seller substitutes one or more Substitute

Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer

will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of

all Substitute Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor by that Seller as of the

date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of

all Deleted Mortgage Loans repurchased by that Seller (after application of

the scheduled principal portion of the monthly payments due in the month of

substitution). The amount of such shortage (the "Substitution Adjustment

Amount") plus an amount equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances

with respect to such Deleted Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in the

Certificate Account by Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park

Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) on or before the Distribution Account

Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the month succeeding the calendar

month during which the related Mortgage Loan became required to be purchased

or replaced hereunder.

 

     In the event that a Seller shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan, the

Purchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant

to Section 3.05 on or before the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the

Distribution Date in the month following the month during which that Seller

became obligated hereunder to repurchase or replace such Mortgage Loan and

upon such deposit of the Purchase Price, the delivery of the Opinion of

Counsel required by Section 2.05 and receipt of a Request for Release in the

form of Exhibit N hereto, the Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File

held for the benefit of the Certificateholders to such Person, and the Trustee

shall execute and deliver at such Person's direction such instruments of

transfer or assignment prepared by such Person, in each case without recourse,

as shall be necessary to transfer title from the Trustee. It is understood and

agreed that the obligation under this Agreement of any Person to cure,

repurchase or replace any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has occurred and

is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against such Persons respecting

such breach available to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the Trustee on

their behalf.

 

     The representations and warranties made pursuant to this Section 2.03

shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Trustee for the

benefit of the Certificateholders.

 

     SECTION 2.04. Representations and Warranties of the Depositor as to the

Mortgage Loans.

 

     The Depositor hereby represents and warrants to the Trustee with respect

to each Mortgage Loan as of the date hereof or such other date set forth

herein that as of the Closing Date, and following the transfer of the Mortgage

Loans to it by each Seller, the Depositor had good title to the Mortgage Loans

and the Mortgage Notes were subject to no offsets, defenses or counterclaims.

 

 

 

                                      55

<PAGE>

 

     The Depositor hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to the Trustee all of

its rights with respect to the Mortgage Loans including, without limitation,

the representations and warranties of each Seller made pursuant to Section

2.03(a)(ii) hereof, together with all rights of the Depositor to require each

Seller to cure any breach thereof or to repurchase or substitute for any

affected Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Agreement.

 

     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. Upon discovery by the Depositor or the Trustee of a breach of any of

the foregoing representations and warranties set forth in this Section 2.04

(referred to herein as a "breach"), which breach materially and adversely

affects the interest of the Certificateholders, the party discovering such

breach shall give prompt written notice to the others and to each Rating

Agency.

 

     SECTION 2.05. Delivery of Opinion of Counsel in Connection with

Substitutions.

 

     (a) Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no

substitution pursuant to Section 2.02 or Section 2.03 shall be made more than

90 days after the Closing Date unless Countrywide delivers to the Trustee an

Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the expense of

either the Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to the effect

that such substitution will not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on

"prohibited transactions" on the Trust Fund or contributions after the Startup

Date, as defined in Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively,

or (ii) cause each REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC at

any time that any Certificates are outstanding.

 

     (b) Upon discovery by the Depositor, a Seller, the Master 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 promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business Days of

discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties. In connection

therewith, the Trustee shall require Countrywide (on its own behalf and on

behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna), at its option, to either

(i) substitute, if the conditions in Section 2.03(c) with respect to

substitutions are satisfied, a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected

Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan within 90 days of

such discovery in the same manner as it would a Mortgage Loan for a breach of

representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 2.03. The Trustee shall

reconvey to Countrywide 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 contained in

Section 2.03.

                         ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING

                               OF MORTGAGE LOANS

 

     SECTION 3.01. Master Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.

 

     For and on behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall

service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this

Agreement and customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage

loan servicers. In connection with such servicing and administration, the

Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone and/or

through Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02 hereof, subject to the terms

hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Certificateholders and the

Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents,

(ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the

Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the manner provided in this

Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and other Liquidation

Proceeds (which for the purpose of this Section includes any Subsequent

Recoveries), and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the

ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan; provided that

the Master Servicer shall not take any action that is inconsistent with or

prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders in any

Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the Depositor, the Trustee and

the Certificateholders under this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall

represent and protect the interests of the Trust Fund in the same manner as it

protects its own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any

claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan, and shall not make

or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any Mortgage Loan which

would cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a REMIC or

result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d)

of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master

Servicer, in its own name or in the name of the Depositor and the Trustee, is

hereby authorized and empowered by the Depositor and the Trustee, when the

Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment, to execute

and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the Certificateholders

or any of them, any and all instruments 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 Mortgaged

Properties held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The Master Servicer

shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor and/or the Trustee such documents

requiring execution and delivery by either or both of them as are necessary or

appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to service and administer the

Mortgage Loans to the extent that the Master Servicer is not permitted to

execute and deliver such documents pursuant to the preceding sentence. Upon

receipt of such documents, the Depositor and/or the Trustee shall execute such

documents and deliver them to the Master Servicer. The Master Servicer further

is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the

Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the name of the

Subservicer, when the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, as the case may be,

believes it appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on

the MERS(R) System, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage

Loan on the MERS(R) System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee

and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments of

assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or

re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the

Trustee and its successors and assigns.

 

 

 

                                      58

<PAGE>

 

     In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Master

Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the

purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged

Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from

related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.06, and further

as provided in Section 3.08. The costs incurred by the Master Servicer, if

any, in effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on the

Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for the purpose

of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be added to

the Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans, notwithstanding

that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.

 

     SECTION 3.02. Subservicing; Enforcement of the Obligations of

Subservicers.

 

     (a) The Master Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any Mortgage

Loan by a Subservicer pursuant to a subservicing agreement; provided, however,

that such subservicing arrangement and the terms of the related subservicing

agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans in a manner

consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder. Unless the

context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement to actions taken or

to be taken by the Master Servicer in servicing the Mortgage Loans include

actions taken or to be taken by a Subservicer on behalf of the Master

Servicer. Notwithstanding the provisions of any subservicing agreement, any of

the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements

between the Master Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken

through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated

and liable to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders for the

servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the

provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or

liability by virtue of such subservicing agreements or arrangements or by

virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same extent and

under the same terms and conditions as if the Master Servicer alone were

servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. All actions of each

Subservicer performed pursuant to the related subservicing agreement shall be

performed as an agent of the Master Servicer with the same force and effect as

if performed directly by the Master Servicer.

 

     (b) For purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed

to have received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect to the

Mortgage Loans that are received by a Subservicer regardless of whether such

payments are remitted by the Subservicer to the Master Servicer.

 

     SECTION 3.03. Rights of the Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of the

Master Servicer.

 

     The Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations of

the Master Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to, perform, or

cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master Servicer

hereunder and in connection with any such defaulted obligation to exercise the

related rights of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the Master

Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder by virtue

of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. Neither the Trustee nor

the Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any action or

failure to act by the Master Servicer nor shall the

 

 

 

                                      59

<PAGE>

 

Trustee or the Depositor be obligated to supervise the performance of the

Master Servicer hereunder or otherwise.

 

     SECTION 3.04. Trustee to Act as Master Servicer.

 

     In the event that the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be

the Master Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of Default),

the Trustee or its successor shall thereupon assume all of the rights and

obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder arising thereafter (except that

the Trustee shall not be (i) liable for losses of the Master Servicer pursuant

to Section 3.09 hereof or any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master

Servicer hereunder), (ii) obligated to make Advances if it is prohibited from

doing so by applicable law, (iii) obligated to effectuate repurchases or

substitutions of Mortgage Loans hereunder including, but not limited to,

repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 2.02 or

2.03 hereof, (iv) responsible for expenses of the Master Servicer pursuant to

Section 2.03 or (v) deemed to have made any representations and warranties of

the Master Servicer hereunder). Any such assumption shall be subject to

Section 7.02 hereof. If the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be

the Master Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default), the Trustee

or its successor shall succeed to any rights and obligations of the Master

Servicer under each subservicing agreement.

 

     The Master Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the

expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents

and records relating to each subservicing agreement or substitute subservicing

agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and an

accounting of amounts collected or held by it and otherwise use its best

efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the substitute

subservicing agreement to the assuming party.

 

     SECTION 3.05. Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments; Certificate Account;

Distribution Account; Corridor Contract Reserve Fund; Class C Distribution

Account.

 

      (a) The Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance with

the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage servicers to

collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage

Loans to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement

and the terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance Policy.

Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its discretion (i)

waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty interest in

connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend the due

dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period not greater than 180

days; provided, however, that the Master Servicer cannot extend the maturity

of any such Mortgage Loan past the date on which the final payment is due on

the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date. In the event of any

such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make Advances on the related

Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01 during the

scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of such Mortgage

Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements. The Master

Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in litigation with respect

to collection of any payment (whether under a Mortgage, Mortgage Note or

otherwise or against any public or governmental authority with respect to a

taking or condemnation) if it

 

 

 

                                      60

<PAGE>

 

reasonably believes that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or other

instrument pursuant to which such payment is required is prohibited by

applicable law.

 

     (b) The Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Certificate

Account into which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited

no later than two Business Days after receipt (or, if the current long-term

credit rating of Countrywide is reduced below "A-" by S&P or "A3" by Moody's,

the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited on a daily basis

within one Business Day of receipt), except as otherwise specifically provided

herein, the following payments and collections remitted by Subservicers or

received by it in respect of Mortgage Loans subsequent to the Cut-off Date

(other than in respect of principal and interest due on the Mortgage Loans on

or before the Cut-off Date) and the following amounts required to be deposited

hereunder:

 

     (i) all payments on account of principal on the Mortgage Loans, including

Principal Prepayments;

 

     (ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans, net of

the Master Servicing Fee and any lender-paid mortgage insurance premiums;

 

     (iii) all Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and Liquidation

Proceeds, other than proceeds to be applied to the restoration or repair of

the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the

Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures;

 

     (iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer or the

Depositor pursuant to Section 3.05(e) in connection with any losses on

Permitted Investments for which it is responsible;

 

     (v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant

to Section 3.09(c) and in respect of net monthly rental income from REO

Property pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof;

 

     (vi) all Substitution Adjustment Amounts;

 

     (vii) all Advances made by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.01;

and

 

     (viii) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.

 

     In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is subject to a

buydown agreement, on each Due Date for such Mortgage Loan, in addition to the

monthly payment remitted by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer shall cause

funds to be deposited into the Certificate Account in an amount required to

cause an amount of interest to be paid with respect to such Mortgage Loan

equal to the amount of interest that has accrued on such Mortgage Loan from

the preceding Due Date at the Mortgage Rate net of the Master Servicing Fee.

 

     The foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer shall be

exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the

generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of prepayment penalties,

late payment charges or assumption fees, if collected, need not be remitted by

the Master Servicer. In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any

 

 

 

                                      61

<PAGE>

 

amount not required to be remitted, it may at any time withdraw or direct the

institution maintaining the Certificate Account to withdraw such amount from

the Certificate Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding.

Such withdrawal or direction may be accomplished by delivering written notice

thereof to the Trustee or such other institution maintaining the Certificate

Account which describes the amounts deposited in error in the Certificate

Account. The Master Servicer shall maintain adequate records with respect to

all withdrawals made pursuant to this Section. All funds deposited in the

Certificate Account shall be held in trust for the Certificateholders until

withdrawn in accordance with Section 3.08.

 

     (c) [Reserved].

 

     (d) The Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the

Certificateholders, the Distribution Account. The Trustee shall, promptly upon

receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and retain therein the following:

 

       (i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the Trustee

   pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(ix);

 

       (ii) any amount deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section

   3.05(e) in connection with any losses on Permitted Investments for which it

   is responsible; and

 

       (iii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required to be

   deposited in the Distribution Account.

 

     In the event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not required

to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee to withdraw such amount

from the Distribution Account, any provision herein to the contrary

notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by delivering an Officer's

Certificate to the Trustee which describes the amounts deposited in error in

the Distribution Account. All funds deposited in the Distribution Account

shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the Certificateholders until

disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in accordance with

Section 3.08. In no event shall the Trustee incur liability for withdrawals

from the Distribution Account at the direction of the Master Servicer.

 

     (e) Each institution at which the Certificate Account or the Distribution

Account is maintained shall invest the funds therein as directed in writing by

the Master Servicer, in the case of the Certificate Account, or by the

Trustee, in the case of the Distribution Account, in Permitted Investments,

which shall mature not later than (i) in the case of the Certificate Account,

the second Business Day next preceding the related Master Servicer Remittance

Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the

institution that maintains such account, then such Permitted Investment shall

mature not later than the Business Day next preceding such Master Servicer

Remittance Date) and (ii) in the case of the Distribution Account, the

Business Day next preceding the Distribution Date (except that if such

Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such

fund or account, then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than

such Distribution Date) and, in each case, shall not be sold or disposed of

prior to its maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be made in the

name of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders. All income and

gain net of any losses realized from any such investment of funds on deposit

in the Certificate Account shall be

 

 

 

                                      62

<PAGE>

 

for the benefit of the Master Servicer as servicing compensation and shall be

remitted to it monthly as provided herein. All income and gain net of any

losses realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in the

Distribution Account shall be distributed in accordance with the following

paragraph for the benefit of the Trustee, as compensation for its duties

hereunder, or the Master Servicer, as servicing compensation, and the

respective portions to which each shall be entitled shall be remitted to them

monthly as provided herein. The amount of any realized losses in the

Certificate Account incurred in any such account in respect of any such

investments shall promptly be deposited by the Master Servicer in the

Certificate Account. The Trustee in its fiduciary capacity shall not be liable

for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any investment or lack of

investment of funds held in the Certificate Account and made in accordance

with this Section 3.05.

 

     With respect to each Distribution Date, (1) all income and gain net of

the Trustee's portion of any losses realized from any such investment of funds

on deposit in the Distribution Account during the seven (7) calendar days

immediately following the related Master Servicer Remittance Date and (2) the

excess of (x) all investment income and gain net of the Master Servicer's

portion of any losses realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in

the Distribution Account over (y) the amount paid to the Trustee pursuant to

clause (1) of this sentence shall be for the benefit of the Master Servicer as

compensation and such amounts shall be remitted to the Trustee and Master

Servicer, respectively, monthly as provided herein. In the event that there

are any realized losses from the investment of funds on deposit in the

Distribution Account, the proportion of such realized loss payable by the

Trustee and the Master Servicer shall be allocated pursuant to the following

formula: (i) with respect to the Trustee, the product of (x) the amount of the

realized loss and (y) a fraction, the numerator of which is 5 and the

denominator of which is the actual number of days from the Master Servicer

Remittance Date to and including the Distribution Date and (ii) with respect

to the Master Servicer, the product of (x) the amount of the realized loss and

(y) a fraction, not less than zero, the numerator of which is the excess, if

any, of (a) the actual number of days from the Master Servicer Remittance Date

to and including the Distribution Date minus (b) 7, and the denominator of

which is the actual number of days from the Master Servicer Remittance Date to

and including the Distribution Date. Each of the Trustee and the Master

Servicer shall promptly deposit in the Distribution Account their respective

portion of any realized loss calculated pursuant to the preceding sentence.

 

     (f) The Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, each Seller,

each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the location of

the Certificate Account prior to any change thereof. The Trustee shall give

notice to the Master Servicer, each Seller, each Rating Agency and the

Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the Distribution Account

prior to any change thereof.

 

     (g) The Trustee shall establish and maintain the Class C Distribution

Account and shall administer it in accordance with this Agreement. On the

Closing Date, the Trustee shall deposit $100 into the Class C Distribution

Account. The institution at which the Class C Distribution Account is

maintained shall hold such funds on deposit uninvested.

 

 

 

                                      63

<PAGE>

 

     All funds deposited in the Class C Distribution Account shall be held by

the Trustee in trust for the Holder of the Class C Certificates until

disbursed in accordance with Section 4.02(b) hereof.

 

     (h) On the Closing Date, the Trustee shall establish and maintain in its

name, in trust for the benefit of the Holders of the Class 2-A-6 Certificates,

the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund, and shall deposit $1,000 therein upon

receipt of such amount from or on behalf of the Depositor. The Corridor

Contract Reserve Fund shall be an Eligible Account and all funds on deposit in

the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund shall be held separate and apart from, and

shall not be commingled with, any other moneys, including without limitation,

other moneys held by the Trustee pursuant to this Agreement.

 

     On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall deposit into the Corridor

Contract Reserve Fund all amounts received in respect of the Corridor Contract

for the related Interest Accrual Period. The Trustee shall make withdrawals

from the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund to make distributions pursuant to

Section 4.09 exclusively (other than as expressly provided for in Section

3.08).

 

     Funds in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund may be invested in Permitted

Investments at the direction of Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc., which Permitted

Investments shall mature not later than the Business Day immediately preceding

the first Distribution Date that follows the date of such investment (except

that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of the institution that

maintains the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund, then such Permitted Investment

shall mature not later than such Distribution Date) and shall not be sold or

disposed of prior to maturity. All such Permitted Investments shall be made in

the name of the Trustee, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class 2-A-6

Certificates. In the absence of such written direction, all funds in the

Corridor Contract Reserve Fund shall be invested by the Trustee in The Bank of

New York cash reserves. Any net investment earnings on such amounts shall be

retained therein until withdrawn as provided in Section 3.08. Any losses

incurred in the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund in respect of any such

investments shall be charged against amounts on deposit in the Corridor

Contract Reserve Fund (or such investments) immediately as realized. The

Trustee shall not be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in respect of

any investment or lack of investment of funds held in the Corridor Contract

Reserve Fund and made in accordance with this Section 3.05. The Corridor

Contract Reserve Fund will not constitute an asset of any REMIC created

hereunder. The Class 2-A-6 Certificates shall evidence ownership of the

Corridor Contract Reserve Fund for federal income tax purposes.

 

     SECTION 3.06. Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items; Escrow

Accounts.

 

     (a) To the extent required by the related Mortgage Note and not violative

of current law, the Master Servicer shall establish and maintain one or more

accounts (each, an "Escrow Account") and deposit and retain therein all

collections from the Mortgagors (or advances by the Master Servicer) for the

payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums or comparable items

for the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall require the Master

Servicer to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in violation of

applicable law.

 

 

 

                                      64

<PAGE>

 

     (b) Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may be

made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance

premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or comparable items, to

reimburse the Master Servicer out of related collections for any payments made

pursuant to Sections 3.01 hereof (with respect to taxes and assessments and

insurance premiums) and 3.09 hereof (with respect to hazard insurance), to

refund to any Mortgagors any sums determined to be overages, to pay interest,

if required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage or Mortgage Note, to

Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account or to clear and terminate the

Escrow Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance with Section

9.01 hereof. The Escrow Accounts shall not be a part of the Trust Fund.

 

     (c) The Master Servicer shall advance any payments referred to in Section

3.06(a) that are not timely paid by the Mortgagors on the date when the tax,

premium or other cost for which such payment is intended is due, but the

Master Servicer shall be required so to advance only to the extent that such

advances, in the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer, will be

recoverable by the Master Servicer out of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation

Proceeds or otherwise.

 

     SECTION 3.07. Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding

the Mortgage Loans.

 

     The Master Servicer shall afford each Seller, the Depositor and the

Trustee reasonable access to all records and documentation regarding the

Mortgage Loans and all accounts, insurance information and other matters

relating to this Agreement, such access being afforded without charge, but

only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the office

designated by the Master Servicer.

 

     Upon reasonable advance notice in writing, the Master Servicer will

provide to each Certificateholder and/or Certificate Owner which is a savings

and loan association, bank or insurance company certain reports and reasonable

access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans

sufficient to permit such Certificateholder and/or Certificate Owner to comply

with applicable regulations of the OTS or other regulatory authorities with

respect to investment in the Certificates; provided that the Master Servicer

shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each such Certificateholder and/or

Certificate Owner for actual expenses incurred by the Master Servicer in

providing such reports and access.

 

     SECTION 3.08. Permitted Withdrawals from the Certificate Account, the

Distribution Account and the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund.

 

     (a) The Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the

Certificate Account for the following purposes:

 

       (i) to pay to the Master Servicer (to the extent not previously

   retained by the Master Servicer) the servicing compensation to which it is

   entitled pursuant to Section 3.14, and to pay to the Master Servicer, as

   additional servicing compensation, earnings on or investment income with

   respect to funds in or credited to the Certificate Account;

 

       (ii) to reimburse each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee for

   unreimbursed Advances made by it, such right of reimbursement pursuant to

   this subclause (ii) being

 

 

 

                                      65

<PAGE>

 

   limited to amounts received on the Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any

   such Advance was made;

 

       (iii) to reimburse each of the Master Servicer and the Trustee for any

   Nonrecoverable Advance previously made by it;

 

       (iv) to reimburse the Master Servicer for Insured Expenses from the

   related Insurance Proceeds;

 

       (v) to reimburse the Master Servicer for (a) unreimbursed Servicing

   Advances, the Master Servicer's right to reimbursement pursuant to this

   clause (a) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to amounts

   received on such Mortgage Loan(s) which represent late recoveries of the

   payments for which such advances were made pursuant to Section 3.01 or

   Section 3.06 and (b) for unpaid Master Servicing Fees as provided in

   Section 3.11 hereof;

 

       (vi) to pay to the purchaser, with respect to each Mortgage Loan or

   property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased pursuant to

   Section 2.02, 2.03 or 3.11, all amounts received thereon after the date of

   such purchase;

 

       (vii) to reimburse the Sellers, the Master Servicer or the Depositor

       (ix) on or prior to the Master Servicer Remittance Date, to withdraw an

   amount equal to the related Available Funds for such Distribution Date and

   remit such amount to the Trustee for deposit in the Distribution Account;

   and

 

       (x) to clear and terminate the Certificate Account upon termination of

   this Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.

 

     The Master Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a

Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any

withdrawal from the Certificate Account pursuant to such subclauses (i), (ii),

(iv), (v) and (vi). Prior to making any withdrawal from the Certificate

Account pursuant to subclause (iii), the Master Servicer shall deliver to the

Trustee an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating the amount

of any previous Advance determined by the Master Servicer to be a

Nonrecoverable Advance and identifying the related Mortgage Loans(s), and

their respective portions of such Nonrecoverable Advance.

 

     (b) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Distribution Account for

distributions to Certificateholders, in the manner specified in this Agreement

(and to withhold from the amounts so withdrawn, the amount of any taxes that

it is authorized to withhold pursuant to the second to last paragraph of

Section 8.11). In addition, the Trustee may from time to time make withdrawals

from the Distribution Account for the following purposes:

 

       (i) with respect to each Distribution Date, to pay to itself as

   compensation for its services hereunder any investment income earned on

   amounts on deposit in the Distribution

 

 

 

                                      66

       (iii) to withdraw and return to the Master Servicer any amount

   deposited in the Distribution Account and not required to be deposited

   therein;

 

       (iv) to reimburse the Trustee for any unreimbursed Advances made by it

   Mortgage Loan(s) in respect of which any such Advance was made and (y)

   amounts not otherwise reimbursed to the Trustee pursuant to Section

   3.08(a)(ii) hereof;

 

       (v) to reimburse the Trustee for any Nonrecoverable Advance previously

   made by the Trustee pursuant to Section 4.01(b) hereof, such right of

   reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (v) being limited to amounts not

   otherwise reimbursed to the Trustee pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(iii)

   hereof; and

 

       (vi) to clear and terminate the Distribution Account upon termination

   of the Agreement pursuant to Section 9.01 hereof.

 

     (c) The Trustee shall withdraw funds from the Corridor Contract Reserve

Fund for distribution to the Class 2-A-6 Certificates in the manner specified

in Section 4.09 (and to withhold from the amounts so withdrawn the amount of

any taxes that it is authorized to retain pursuant to the last paragraph of

Section 8.11). In addition, the Trustee may from time to time make withdrawals

from the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund for the following purposes:

 

       (i) to withdraw any amount deposited in the Corridor Contract Reserve

   Fund and not required to be deposited therein; and

 

       (ii) to clear and terminate the Corridor Contract Reserve Fund upon the

   earliest of (x) the reduction of the Class Certificate Balance of the Class

   2-A-6 Certificates to zero, (y) the scheduled termination date of the

   Corridor Contract and (z) the termination of this Agreement pursuant to

   Section 9.01.

 

     SECTION 3.09. Maintenance of Hazard Insurance; Maintenance of Primary

Insurance Policies.

 

     (a) The Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained, for each Mortgage

Loan, hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount that is at least

equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements

securing such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the greater of (y) the outstanding

principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (z) an amount such that the

proceeds of such policy shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor and/or

the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. Each such policy of standard hazard

insurance shall contain, or have an

 

 

 

                                      67

accompanying endorsement that contains, a standard mortgagee clause. Any

amounts collected by the Master Servicer under any such policies (other than

the amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the related

Mortgaged Property or amounts released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the

Master Servicer's normal servicing procedures) shall be deposited in the

Certificate Account. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer in maintaining

any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating monthly

distributions to the Certificateholders or remittances to the Trustee for

their benefit, be added to the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan,

notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs

shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of late payments by the

related Mortgagor or out of Liquidation Proceeds or Subsequent Recoveries to

the extent permitted by Section 3.08 hereof. It is understood and agreed that

no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor

or maintained on property acquired in respect of a Mortgage other than

pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in

force and as shall require such additional insurance. If the Mortgaged

Property is located at the time of origination of the Mortgage Loan in a

federally designated special flood hazard area and such area is participating

in the national flood insurance program, the Master Servicer shall cause flood

insurance to be maintained with respect to such Mortgage Loan. Such flood

insurance shall be in an amount equal to the least of (i) the outstanding

principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) the replacement value of

the improvements which are part of such Mortgaged Property, and (iii) the

maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property

under the national flood insurance program.

 

     (b) The Master Servicer shall not take any action which would result in

non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss which,

but for the actions of the Master Servicer, would have been covered

thereunder. The Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew any such

Primary Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance

of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force hereunder unless the

replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or non-renewed policy

is maintained with a Qualified Insurer.

 

     Except with respect to any Lender PMI Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer

shall not be required to maintain any Primary Insurance Policy (i) with

respect to any Mortgage Loan with a Loan-to-Value Ratio less than or equal to

80% as of any date of determination or, based on a new appraisal, the

principal balance of such Mortgage Loan represents 80% or less of the new

appraised value or (ii) if maintaining such Primary Insurance Policy is

prohibited by applicable law. With respect to the Lender PMI Mortgage Loans,

the Master Servicer shall maintain the Primary Insurance Policy for the life

of such Mortgage Loans, unless otherwise provided for in the related Mortgage

Note or prohibited by law.

 

     The Master Servicer agrees to effect the timely payment of the premiums

on each Primary Insurance Policy, and such costs not otherwise recoverable

shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer from the related liquidation

proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries.

 

     (c) In connection with its activities as Master Servicer of the Mortgage

Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present on behalf of itself, the Trustee

and Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary Insurance

Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be

necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policies respecting

 

 

 

 

                                      68

<PAGE>

 

defaulted Mortgage Loans. Any amounts collected by the Master Servicer under

any Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Certificate Account.

 

     SECTION 3.10. Enforcement of Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.

 

     (a) Except as otherwise provided in this Section, when any property

subject to a Mortgage has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer

shall to the extent that it has knowledge of such conveyance, enforce any

due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to the extent

permitted under applicable law and governmental regulations, but only to the

extent that such enforcement will not adversely affect or jeopardize coverage

under any Required Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master

Servicer is not required to exercise such rights with respect to a Mortgage

Loan if the Person to whom the related Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or

is proposed to be conveyed satisfies the terms and conditions contained in the

Mortgage Note and Mortgage related thereto and the consent of the mortgagee

under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not otherwise so required under such

Mortgage Note or Mortgage as a condition to such transfer. In the event that

the Master Servicer is prohibited by law from enforcing any such due-on-sale

clause, or if coverage under any Required Insurance Policy would be adversely

affected, or if nonenforcement is otherwise permitted hereunder, the Master

Servicer is authorized, subject to Section 3.10(b), to take or enter into an

assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such

property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person

becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by applicable

state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon, provided that the Mortgage

Loan shall continue to be covered (if so covered before the Master Servicer

enters such agreement) by the applicable Required Insurance Policies. The

Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.10(b), is also authorized with the prior

approval of the insurers under any Required Insurance Policies to enter into a

substitution of liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to which the

original Mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is substituted

as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note. Notwithstanding the

foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default under this

Section by reason of any transfer or assumption which the Master Servicer

reasonably believes it is restricted by law from preventing, for any reason

whatsoever.

 

     (b) Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any due-on-sale

clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.10(a) hereof, in any case in which

a Mortgaged Property has been conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor, and such

Person is to enter into an assumption agreement or modification agreement or

supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage that requires the signature of the

Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required

releasing the Mortgagor from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Master

Servicer shall prepare and deliver or cause to be prepared and delivered to

the Trustee for signature and shall direct, in writing, the Trustee to execute

the assumption agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged Property is to

be conveyed and such modification agreement or supplement to the Mortgage Note

or Mortgage or other instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out

the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply with any

applicable laws regarding assumptions or the transfer of the Mortgaged

Property to such Person. In connection with any such assumption, no material

term of the Mortgage Note may be changed. In addition, the substitute

Mortgagor and the Mortgaged Property must be acceptable to the Master Servicer

in accordance with its underwriting standards as then in effect. Together with

each such

 

 

 

                                      69

substitution, assumption or other agreement or instrument delivered to the

Trustee for execution by it, the Master Servicer shall deliver an Officer's

Certificate signed by a Servicing Officer stating that the requirements of

this subsection have been met in connection therewith. The Master Servicer

shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution or assumption agreement

has been completed by forwarding to the Trustee the original of such

substitution or assumption agreement, which in the case of the original shall

be added to the related Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be

considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other

documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. Any fee collected by

the Master Servicer for entering into an assumption or substitution of

liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer as additional

servicing compensation.

 

     SECTION 3.11. Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans; Repurchase of

Certain Mortgage Loans.

 

     (a) The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon or

otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the

Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to which no

satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments.

In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Master Servicer

shall follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem necessary or

advisable and as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing

activities and meet the requirements of the insurer under any Required

Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall not be

required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards

the restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i) that such

restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of

the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses and (ii) that

such expenses will be recoverable to it through Liquidation Proceeds

(respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of withdrawals from the

Certificate Account). The Master Servicer shall be responsible for all other

costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however,

that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the liquidation

proceeds and Subsequent Recoveries with respect to the related Mortgaged

Property, as provided in the definition of Liquidation Proceeds. If the Master

Servicer has knowledge that a Mortgaged Property which the Master Servicer is

contemplating acquiring in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is

located within a 1 mile radius of any site listed in the Expenditure Plan for

the Hazardous Substance Clean Up Bond Act of 1984 or other site with

environmental or hazardous waste risks known to the Master Servicer, the

Master Servicer will, prior to acquiring the Mortgaged Property, consider such

risks and only take action in accordance with its established environmental

review procedures.

 

     With respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall

be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders,

or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Trustee's name shall

be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee hereunder

and not in its individual capacity. The Master Servicer shall ensure that the

title to such REO Property references the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and

the Trustee's capacity thereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO

Property, the Master Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected

by the Master Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in the same

manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality where such REO

Property is located and may, incident to its conservation and protection of

the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part thereof,

as the Master Servicer deems to be in the

 

 

 

                                      70

<PAGE>

 

best interest of the Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of

such REO Property. The Master Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to the

Trustee a statement with respect to each REO Property that has been rented

showing the aggregate rental income received and all expenses incurred in

connection with the maintenance of such REO Property at such times as is

necessary to enable the Trustee to comply with the reporting requirements of

the REMIC Provisions. The net monthly rental income, if any, from such REO

Property shall be deposited in the Certificate Account no later than the close

of business on each Determination Date. The Master Servicer shall perform the

tax reporting and withholding required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code

with respect to foreclosures and abandonments, the tax reporting required by

Section 6050H of the Code with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest

from individuals and any tax reporting required by Section 6050P of the Code

with respect to the cancellation of indebtedness by certain financial

entities, by preparing such tax and information returns as may be required, in

the form required, and delivering the same to the Trustee for filing.

 

     In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as

aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on a

Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property as

soon as practicable in a manner that maximizes the Liquidation Proceeds

thereof, but in no event later than three years after its acquisition by the

Trust Fund. In that event, the Trustee shall have been supplied with an

Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund of such

Mortgaged Property subsequent to a three-year period, if applicable, will not

result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of any REMIC

hereunder as defined in section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC hereunder

to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are

outstanding, the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property

(subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel) after the

expiration of such three-year period. Notwithstanding any other provision of

this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be

rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for the

production of income by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or

pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property to fail to

qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of section 860G(a)(8) of

the Code or (ii) subject any REMIC he
