                                   DEFINITIONS

 

Section 1.01       DEFINITIONS.

 

         Unless the context requires a different meaning, capitalized terms are

used in this Agreement as defined below.

 

         60+ DAY DELINQUENT LOAN: As of any day during any calendar month, each

Mortgage Loan in foreclosure, all REO Property, each Mortgage Loan for which the

any portion of a Scheduled Payment is, as of the last day of the Remittance

Period before the Remittance Period ending in such calendar month, two months or

more past due (without giving effect to any grace period). For instance, in

making a determination on the Distribution Date in July (July 25) with respect

to a Mortgage Loan whose Scheduled Payment for May is delinquent (and that has

no previous Scheduled Payment that is delinquent), that Mortgage Loan would not

be a 60+ Day Delinquent Loan because as of the last day of the Remittance Period

before the Remittance Period ending in July (which would be the Remittance

Period ending in June (on June 1)), the Scheduled Payment for May (due May 1)

would only be one month past due.

Mortgage Loans that were due during the related Remittance Period and not

         (vii) the Excess Reserve Fund Account.

 

         TRUST REMIC: Any of REMIC I, REMIC II or REMIC III.

 

          TRUSTEE: Deutsche Bank National Trust Company and its successors and,

if a successor trustee is appointed under this Agreement, such successor.

 

         TRUSTEE FEE: As to each Mortgage Loan and any Distribution Date, one

month's interest at the related Trustee Fee Rate on the Stated Principal Balance

of the Mortgage Loan as of the Due Date occurring in the preceding calendar

month (or, whenever a payment of interest accompanies a Principal Prepayment in

Full made by the Mortgagor during the preceding calendar month, interest at the

Trustee Fee Rate on the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan for the

period covered by the payment of interest) PLUS the aggregate amount on deposit

in the Pre-Funding Accounts as of the Due Date occurring in the preceding

calendar month (or, in the case of the initial Distribution Date, as of the

Closing Date).

 

         TRUSTEE FEE RATE: For each Mortgage Loan, the per annum rate agreed

upon in writing by the Closing Date by the Trustee and the Depositor.

 

          UNCERTIFICATED BALANCE: The amount of any REMIC Regular Interest

outstanding as of any date of determination. As of the Closing Date, the

Uncertificated Balance of each REMIC Regular Interest shall equal the amount set

forth in the Preliminary Statement hereto as its initial uncertificated balance.

On each Distribution Date, the Uncertificated Balance of each REMIC Regular

Interest shall be reduced by all distributions of principal made on such REMIC

Regular Interest on such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.08 and, if and

to the extent necessary and appropriate, shall be further reduced on such

Distribution Date by Realized Losses as provided in Section 4.08. The

Uncertificated Balance of REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ shall be increased

by interest deferrals as provided in Section 4.08(a)(1). The Uncertificated

Balance of each REMIC Regular Interest shall never be less than zero. With

respect to the Class C Certificates as of any date of determination, an amount

equal to the excess, if any, of (A) the then aggregate Uncertificated Principal

Balance of the REMIC II Regular Interests over (B) the then aggregate

Certificate Principal Balance of the Class A Certificates, Subordinated

Certificates and Class P Certificates then outstanding.

 

         UNCERTIFICATED INTEREST: With respect to any REMIC Regular Interest for

any Distribution Date, one month's interest at the REMIC Remittance Rate

applicable to such REMIC Regular Interest for such Distribution Date, accrued on

the Uncertificated Balance thereof immediately prior to such Distribution Date.

Uncertificated Interest in respect of any REMIC Regular Interest shall accrue on

the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months. Uncertificated

Interest with respect to each Distribution Date, as to any REMIC Regular

Interest, shall be reduced by an amount equal to the sum of (a) the aggregate

Prepayment Interest Shortfalls, if any, for such Distribution Date to the extent

not covered pursuant to Section 3.15 and (b) the aggregate amount of any Relief

Act Interest Shortfalls, if any, in each case in the manner and priority

described below.

 

         For purposes of calculating the amount of Uncertificated Interest for

the REMIC I Regular Interests for any Distribution Date, the aggregate amount of

any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls (to the extent not covered by the Master

Servicer pursuant to Section 3.15) and Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred

in respect of the Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated

first, (a) with respect to the Group I Mortgage Loans, to REMIC I Regular

Interest I-LT1 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LT1PF, in each case to the extent

of one month's interest at the then applicable respective REMIC I Remittance

Rate on the respective Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC I Regular

Interest; provided, however, that with respect to the first and second

Distribution Dates, such amounts relating to the Initial Group I Mortgage Loans

shall be allocated to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LT1 and such amounts relating

to the Subsequent Group I Mortgage Loans shall be allocated to REMIC I Regular

Interest I-LT1PF, and (b) with respect to the Group II Mortgage Loans, to REMIC

I Regular Interest I-LT2 and REMIC I Regular Interest I-LT2PF, in each case to

the extent of one month's interest at the then applicable respective REMIC I

Remittance Rate on the respective Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC I

Regular Interest; provided, however, that with respect to the first and second

Distribution Dates, such amounts relating to the Initial Group I Mortgage Loans

shall be allocated to REMIC I Regular Interest I-LT2 and such amounts relating

to the Subsequent Group II Mortgage Loans shall be allocated to REMIC I Regular

Interest I-LT2PF.

 

         For purposes of calculating the amount of Uncertificated Interest for

the REMIC II Regular Interests for any Distribution Date:

 

         The REMIC II Marker Allocation Percentage of the aggregate amount of

any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls (to the extent not covered by the Master

Servicer pursuant to Section 3.15) and the REMIC II Marker Allocation Percentage

of any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred in respect of the Mortgage Loans

for any Distribution Date shall be allocated among REMIC II Regular Interest

II-LTAA, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAI1, REMIC II Regular Interest

II-LTAII1, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTAII2, REMIC II Regular Interest

II-LTAII3, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM1, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM2,

REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM3, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM4, REMIC II

Regular Interest II-LTM5, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM6, REMIC II Regular

Interest II-LTM7, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM8, REMIC II Regular Interest

II-LTM9, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM10, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTM11

and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTZZ, PRO RATA, based on, and to the extent of,

one month's interest at the then applicable respective REMIC II Remittance Rate

on the respective Uncertificated Balance of each such REMIC II Regular Interest;

and

 

         The REMIC II Sub WAC Allocation Percentage of the aggregate amount of

any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls (to the extent not covered by the Master

Servicer pursuant to Section 3.15) and the REMIC II Sub WAC Allocation

Percentage of any Relief Act Interest Shortfalls incurred in respect of the

Mortgage Loans for any Distribution Date shall be allocated to Uncertificated

Interest payable to REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT1SUB, REMIC II Regular

Interest II-LT1GRP, REMIC II Regular Interest II-LT2SUB, REMIC II Regular

Interest II-LT2GRP and REMIC II Regular Interest II-LTXX, PRO RATA, based on,

and to the extent of, one month's interest at the then applicable respective

REMIC II Remittance Rate on the respective Uncertificated Balance of each such

REMIC II Regular Interest.

 

         In addition, Uncertificated Interest with respect to each Distribution

Date, as to any REMIC Regular Interest, shall be reduced by Realized Losses, if

any, allocated to such REMIC Regular Interest as described above and pursuant to

Section 4.02.

 

         UNDERWRITER'S EXEMPTION: Prohibited Transaction Exemption 2002-41, 67

U.S. Persons.

 

         UNPAID INTEREST AMOUNTS: As of any Distribution Date and any Class of

Certificates, the SUM OF

 

(a) the EXCESS OF

 

                  (i) the SUM OF the Accrued Certificate Interest Distribution

         Amount for the Distribution Date and any portion of the Accrued

accordance with their respective Percentage Interests).

 

Section 1.02       RULES OF CONSTRUCTION.

 

         Except as otherwise expressly provided in this Agreement or unless the

context clearly requires otherwise:

 

         (a) References to designated articles, sections, subsections, exhibits,

and other subdivisions of this Agreement, such as "Section 6.12 (a)," refer to

the designated article, section, subsection, exhibit, or other subdivision of

this Agreement as a whole and to all subdivisions of the designated article,

section, subsection, exhibit, or other subdivision. The words "herein,"

"hereof," "hereto," "hereunder," and other words of similar import refer to this

Agreement as a whole and not to any particular article, section, exhibit, or

other subdivision of this Agreement.

 

         (b) Any term that relates to a document or a statute, rule, or

regulation includes any amendments, modifications, supplements, or any other

changes that may have occurred since the document, statute, rule, or regulation

came into being, including changes that occur after the date of this Agreement.

 

         (c) Any party may execute any of the requirements under this Agreement

either directly or through others, and the right to cause something to be done

rather than doing it directly shall be implicit in every requirement under this

Agreement. Unless a provision is restricted as to time or limited as to

frequency, all provisions under this Agreement are implicitly available and

things may happen from time to time.

 

         (d) The term "including" and all its variations mean "including but not

limited to." Except when used in conjunction with the word "either," the word

"or" is always used inclusively (for example, the phrase "A or B" means "A or B

or both," not "either A or B but not both").

 

         (e) A reference to "a [thing]" or "any [of a thing]" does not imply the

existence or occurrence of the thing referred to even though not followed by "if

any," and "any [of a thing]" is any of it. A reference to the plural of anything

as to which there could be either one or more than one does not imply the

existence of more than one (for instance, the phrase "the obligors on a note"

means "the obligor or obligors on a note"). "Until [something occurs]" does not

imply that it must occur, and will not be modified by the word "unless." The

word "due" and the word "payable" are each used in the sense that the stated

time for payment has passed. The word "accrued" is used in its accounting sense,

i.e., an amount paid is no longer accrued. In the calculation of amounts of

things, differences and sums may generally result in negative numbers, but when

the calculation of the excess of one thing over another results in zero or a

negative number, the calculation is disregarded and an "excess" does not exist.

Portions of things may be expressed as fractions or percentages interchangeably.

 

         (f) All accounting terms used in an accounting context and not

otherwise defined, and accounting terms partly defined in this Agreement, to the

extent not completely defined, shall be construed in accordance with generally

accepted accounting principles. To the extent that the definitions of accounting

terms in this Agreement are inconsistent with their meanings under generally

accepted accounting principles, the definitions contained in this Agreement

shall control. Capitalized terms used in this Agreement without definition that

are defined in the Uniform Commercial Code are used in this Agreement as defined

in the Uniform Commercial Code.

 

         (g) In the computation of a period of time from a specified date to a

later specified date or an open-ended period, the words "from" and "beginning"

mean "from and including," the word "after" means "from but excluding," the

words "to" and "until" mean "to but excluding," and the word "through" means "to

and including." Likewise, in setting deadlines or other periods, "by" means "on

or before." The words "preceding," "following," and words of similar import,

mean immediately preceding or following. References to a month or a year refer

to calendar months and calendar years.

 

         (h) Any reference to the enforceability of any agreement against a

party means that it is enforceable, subject as to enforcement against the party,

to applicable bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, and other similar laws of

general applicability relating to or affecting creditors' rights and to general

equity principles.

                                   ARTICLE II

 

          CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS; REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

 

         Section 2.01 CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS.

 

         (a) The Seller, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this

Agreement, hereby transfers to the Depositor, without recourse, all the interest

of the Seller in each Mortgage Loan, including all interest and principal due to

the Seller on each Mortgage Loan after the applicable Cut-off Date and all

interest and principal payments on each Mortgage Loan received by the applicable

Cut-off Date for installments of interest and principal due after the applicable

Cut-off Date but not including payments of principal and interest due on each

Mortgage Loan by the applicable Cut-off Date. By the Closing Date, the Seller

shall deliver to the Depositor or, at the Depositor's direction, to the Trustee

or other designee of the Depositor, the Mortgage File for each Mortgage Loan

listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (except that, in the case of Mortgage Loans

that are Delayed Delivery Mortgage Loans, such delivery may take place within

five (5) Business Days of the Closing Date) as of the Closing Date. The delivery

of the Mortgage Files shall be made against payment by the Depositor of the

purchase price, previously agreed to by the Seller and Depositor, for the

Mortgage Loans. Also on the Closing Date, the Depositor shall deposit $100 into

the Certificate Account for the benefit of the Class P Certificates.

 

         (b) The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery of this

Agreement, hereby transfers to the Trustee for the benefit of the

Certificateholders, without recourse, all the interest of the Depositor in the

Trust Fund, together with the Depositor's right to require the Seller to cure

any breach of a representation or warranty made in this Agreement by the Seller

or to repurchase or substitute for any affected Mortgage Loan in accordance with

this Agreement. The Depositor hereby directs the Trustee to execute the Cap

Contracts.

 

         (c) In connection with the transfer and assignment of each Mortgage

Loan, the Depositor has delivered (or, in the case of the Delayed Delivery

Mortgage Loans, will deliver within the time periods specified in the definition

of Delayed Delivery Mortgage Loans) to the Trustee for the benefit of the

Certificateholders the following documents or instruments with respect to each

Mortgage Loan so assigned:

 

                  (i) The original Mortgage Note, endorsed by manual or

         facsimile signature in 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

         endorsement being sufficient to transfer all interest of the party so

         endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in that Mortgage Note) or

         a lost note affidavit for any Lost Mortgage Note from the Seller

         stating that the original Mortgage Note was lost or destroyed, together

         with a copy of the Mortgage Note.

 

                   (ii) Except as provided below, for each Mortgage Loan that is

         not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of

         such Mortgage certified by the Seller 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 an 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.

 

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

         original lender's title policy and all its riders.

 

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

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

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

have been assigned by the 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. The 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 the 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, that 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 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. If the original Mortgage is not

delivered and in connection with the payment in full of the related Mortgage

Loan the public recording office requires the presentation of a "lost

instruments affidavit and indemnity" or any equivalent document, because only a

copy of the Mortgage can be delivered with the instrument of satisfaction or

reconveyance, the Master Servicer shall execute and deliver the required

document to the public recording office. If a public recording office retains

the original recorded Mortgage or if a Mortgage is lost after recordation in a

public recording office, the Seller shall deliver to the Trustee a copy of the

Mortgage certified by the public recording office to be a true and complete copy

of the original recorded Mortgage.

 

         As promptly as practicable after any transfer of a Mortgage Loan under

this Agreement, and in any event within thirty days after the transfer, the

Trustee shall (i) affix the Trustee's name to each assignment of Mortgage, as

its assignee, and (ii) 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, if the Trustee has not received the information required

to deliver any assignment of a Mortgage for recording, the Trustee shall deliver

it as soon as practicable after receipt of the needed information and in any

event within thirty days.

 

         Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, for administrative convenience

and facilitation of servicing and to reduce closing costs, the assignments of

Mortgage shall not be required to be submitted for recording (except with

respect to any Mortgage Loan located in Maryland) unless such failure to record

would result in a withdrawal or a downgrading by any Rating Agency of the rating

on any Class of Certificates; provided, however, that each assignment of

Mortgage shall be submitted for recording by the Seller (at the direction of the

Master Servicer) in the manner described above, at no expense to the Trust Fund

or the Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of: (i) reasonable direction by the

Holders of Certificates entitled to at least 25% of the Voting Rights or by the

NIM Insurer, if any, (ii) [RESERVED], (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy,

insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Seller, (iv) the occurrence of a

servicing transfer as described in Section 7.02 hereof and (v) if the Seller is

not the Master Servicer and with respect to any one assignment or Mortgage, the

occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgagor

under the related Mortgage. Notwithstanding the foregoing, if the Master

Servicer is unable to pay the cost of recording the assignments of Mortgage,

such expense shall be paid by the Trustee and shall be reimbursable out of the

Distribution Account.

 

         If any Mortgage Loans 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 the prepayment that is

required to be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.06.

 

         Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, within five

(5) Business Days after the Closing Date, the Seller shall either

 

         (i) deliver to the Trustee the Mortgage File as required pursuant to

this Section 2.01 for each Delayed Delivery Mortgage Loan or

 

         (ii) (A) repurchase the Delayed Delivery Mortgage Loan or (B)

substitute the Delayed Delivery Mortgage Loan for a Substitute Mortgage Loan,

which repurchase or substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject

to the conditions in Section 2.03.

 

         By the fifth Business Day after the Closing Date, the Trustee shall, in

accordance with Section 2.02, send a Delayed Delivery Certification

substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2 (with any applicable exceptions noted

thereon) for all Delayed Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered within the specified

numbers of days after the pertinent date. The Trustee will promptly send a copy

of such Delayed Delivery Certification to each Rating Agency. If the Seller

fails to deliver a Mortgage File for any Delayed Delivery Mortgage Loan within

the period specified herein, the Seller shall use its best reasonable efforts to

effect a substitution, rather than a repurchase of, any Deleted Mortgage Loan.

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 Delayed Delivery Mortgage

Loan, but rather the Seller shall have five (5) Business Days to cure such

failure to deliver. At the end of such period, the Trustee shall send a Delayed

Delivery Certification for the Delayed Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered during

such period in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02.

 

         The Seller agrees to treat the transfer of the Mortgage Loans to the

Depositor as a sale for all tax, accounting, and regulatory purposes.

 

         It is agreed and understood by the parties hereto that it is not

intended that any Mortgage Loan be included in the Trust Fund that is a

"High-Cost Home Loan" (or any other similarly designated loan) as defined in the

New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003, The Home Loan

Protection Act of New Mexico effective January 1, 2004, The Massachusetts

Predatory Home Loan Practices Act effective November 7, 2004 or The Indiana Home

Loan Practices Act effective January 1, 2005.

 

         Section 2.02 ACCEPTANCE BY THE TRUSTEE OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS.

 

         The Trustee acknowledges receipt of the documents identified in the

Initial Certification in the form of Exhibit G-1 and declares that it holds and

will hold such documents and the other documents delivered to it constituting

the Mortgage Files for the Mortgage Loans, 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 related 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 the Seller an Initial Certification in the

form of Exhibit G-1. Based on its review and examination, and only as to the

documents identified in the Initial Certification, the Trustee acknowledges that

the documents appear regular on their face and relate to the Mortgage Loans. The

Trustee shall be under no duty 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.

 

         By the thirtieth day after the Closing Date (or if that day is not a

Business Day, the succeeding Business Day), the Trustee shall deliver to the

Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Seller a Delayed Delivery Certification

with respect to the Mortgage Loans, substantially in the form of Exhibit G-2,

with any applicable exceptions noted thereon.

 

         Not later than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date, the Trustee

shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and the Seller a Final

Certification in the form of Exhibit H, with any applicable exceptions noted

thereon.

 

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

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

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

Certification. The Trustee shall not make any determination as to whether (i)

any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all interest of the party so

endorsing, as noteholder or assignee thereof, in that Mortgage Note or (ii) any

assignment is in recordable form or is sufficient to effect the assignment of

and transfer to the assignee thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment

relates. The Seller shall promptly correct any such defect within ninety (90)

days from the date it was so notified of the defect and, with respect to any

Mortgage Loan for which such defect is materially adverse to the

Certificateholders, if the Seller does not correct such defect within that

period, the Seller shall either (a) substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a

Substitute Mortgage Loan, which substitution shall be accomplished pursuant to

Section 2.03, or (b) purchase the Mortgage Loan at its Purchase Price from the

Trustee within ninety (90) days from the date the Seller was notified of the

defect in writing.

 

         If a substitution or purchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this

provision is required because of a delay in delivery of any documents by the

appropriate recording office, or there is a dispute between either the Master

Servicer or the Seller and the Trustee over the location or status of the

recorded document, then the substitution or purchase shall occur within 720 days

from the Closing Date. In no other case may a substitution or purchase occur

more than 540 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) that has not

been returned by the appropriate recording office or (b) as to which there is a

dispute as to location or status of the Mortgage Loan. The notice shall be

delivered every ninety (90) days thereafter until the related Mortgage Loan is

returned to the Trustee. Any substitution pursuant to (a) above or purchase

pursuant to (b) above shall not be effected before the delivery to the Trustee

of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05, and any substitution

pursuant to (a) above shall not be effected before 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 the month.

 

         The Purchase Price for any Mortgage Loan shall be deposited by the

Seller in the Certificate Account by the Distribution Account Deposit Date for

the Distribution Date in the month following the month of repurchase and, upon

receipt of the deposit and certification with respect thereto in the form of

Exhibit N, the Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to the Seller and

shall execute and deliver at the Seller's request any instruments of transfer or

assignment prepared by the Seller, in each case without recourse, necessary to

vest in the Seller, or a designee, the Trustee's interest in any Mortgage Loan

released pursuant hereto.

 

         If pursuant to the foregoing provisions the Seller repurchases a

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 the Seller 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 the Seller as the beneficial holder of such Mortgage Loan.

 

         The Trustee shall retain possession and custody of each Mortgage File

in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions 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.

 

         The obligation of the Seller to substitute for or to purchase any

Mortgage Loan that does not meet the requirements of Section 2.01 shall

constitute the sole remedy respecting the defect available to the Trustee, the

Depositor, and any Certificateholder against the Seller.

 

         Section 2.03 REPRESENTATIONS, WARRANTIES, AND COVENANTS OF THE

                       SELLER AND THE MASTER SERVICER.

 

         (a) IndyMac, in its capacities as Seller and Master Servicer, hereby

makes the representations and warranties in Schedule II, and by this reference

incorporated herein, to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date.

The Master Servicer will fully furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit

Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete

information (i.e., favorable and unfavorable) on its credit files for the

related Mortgagor for each Mortgage Loan to Equifax, Experian and Trans Union

Credit Information Company on a monthly basis.

 

         (b) The Seller, in its capacity as Seller, hereby makes the

representations and warranties in Schedule III, and by this reference

incorporated herein, to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of the Closing Date,

or if so specified therein, as of the applicable Cut-off Date.

 

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

representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 2.03(b) that materially and

adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan,

the party discovering such breach shall give prompt notice thereof to the other

parties and the NIM Insurer. A breach of the representation or warranty made

pursuant to clauses (29), (30), (34), (35), (36), (37), (38) and (39) of

Schedule III or a breach of the covenant of the Master Servicer made pursuant to

clause (a) above will be deemed to materially and adversely affect the interests

of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan. The Seller hereby

covenants that within ninety (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 made pursuant to Section 2.03(b) that materially and adversely affects

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

breach in all material respects, and if such breach is not so cured, shall: (i)

if the 90 day period expires before the second anniversary of the Closing Date,

remove the Mortgage Loan (a "DELETED MORTGAGE LOAN") from the Trust Fund and

substitute in its place a Substitute Mortgage Loan, in accordance with this

Section 2.03; or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans

from the Trustee at the Purchase Price in the manner stated below. Any

substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected before the delivery to

the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel required by Section 2.05 and a Request for

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

Substitute Mortgage Loan. The Seller 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 the breach.

 

         With respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Seller shall

deliver to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders the Mortgage

Note, the Mortgage, the related assignment of the Mortgage, and any other

documents and agreements required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note

endorsed and the Mortgage assigned as required by Section 2.01. No substitution

is permitted to be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for

the month. Scheduled Payments due with respect to Substitute Mortgage Loans in

the Remittance Period of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund and

will be retained by the Seller on the next Distribution Date. For the Remittance

Period of substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will include the

monthly payment due on any Deleted Mortgage Loan for the Remittance Period and

thereafter the Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received with

respect to the Deleted Mortgage Loan.

 

         The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule for the

benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the removal of the Deleted Mortgage

Loan and the substitution of the Substitute Mortgage Loans and the Master

Servicer shall deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. Upon

the substitution, the Substitute Mortgage Loans shall be subject to this

Agreement in all respects, and the Seller shall be deemed to have made with

respect to the Substitute Mortgage Loans, as of the date of substitution, the

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

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

Account of the amount required to be deposited therein in connection with the

substitution as described in the following paragraph, the Trustee shall release

the Mortgage File held for the benefit of the Certificateholders relating to the

Deleted Mortgage Loan to the Seller and shall execute and deliver at the

Seller's direction such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the

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

the 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 the Seller substitutes one or more Substitute

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

determine the amount by which the aggregate principal balance of all such

Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the

aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all the Deleted Mortgage Loans (after

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

the Remittance Period of substitution and any adjustments due to any costs or

damages incurred by the Trust Fund in connection with any violation of the

Mortgage Loan of any predatory or abusive lending law). The amount of the

shortage (the "SUBSTITUTION ADJUSTMENT AMOUNT") PLUS, if the Seller is not the

Master Servicer, the aggregate of any unreimbursed Advances and Servicing

Advances with respect to the Deleted Mortgage Loans, shall be deposited into the

Certificate Account by the Seller by 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.

 

         If the Seller repurchases a Mortgage Loan, the Purchase Price therefor

shall be deposited in the Certificate Account pursuant to Section 3.06 by the

Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the month

following the month during which the Seller became obligated hereunder to

repurchase or replace the 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, 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. 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 the Person respecting the 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 the Seller, the Depositor had good title to the Mortgage Loans

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

 

         The Depositor hereby transfers to the Trustee all of its rights with

respect to the Mortgage Loans, including the representations and warranties of

the Seller made pursuant to Section 2.03(b), together with all rights of the

Depositor to require the Seller to cure any breach thereof or to repurchase or

substitute for any affected Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Agreement.

 

         The representations and warranties in this Section 2.04 shall survive

delivery of the Mortgage Files to the Trustee. Upon discovery by the Depositor

or the Trustee of any breach of any of the representations and warranties in

this Section that materially and adversely affects the interest of the

Certificateholders, the party discovering the breach shall give prompt written

notice to the others, the NIM Insurer, and to each Rating Agency. If the NIM

Insurer discovers such a breach, it may notify the parties to this Agreement and

each Rating Agency.

 

         Section 2.05   DELIVERY OF OPINION OF COUNSEL IN CONNECTION WITH

                       SUBSTITUTIONS AND REPURCHASES.

 

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

substitution pursuant to Section 2.01, 2.02, 2.03 or 2.05 shall be made more

than ninety (90) days after the Closing Date unless the Seller 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 any REMIC created under this Agreement to fail to

qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates are outstanding.

 

         (b) Upon discovery by the Depositor, the 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 and the NIM Insurer.

If the NIM Insurer discovers such facts, it may notify the parties to this

Agreement. In connection therewith, the Trustee shall require the Seller, at the

Seller's 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

ninety (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 the Seller the Mortgage Loan to be released

pursuant hereto in the same manner, and on the same terms, as it would a

Mortgage Loan repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty contained

in Section 2.03.

 

         Section 2.06 EXECUTION AND DELIVERY OF CERTIFICATES.

 

         The Trustee acknowledges the transfer and assignment to it of the Trust

Fund and, concurrently with the transfer and assignment, has executed and

delivered to or upon the order of the Depositor, the Certificates in authorized

denominations evidencing directly or indirectly the entire ownership of the

Trust Fund. The Trustee agrees to hold the Trust Fund and exercise the rights

referred to above for the benefit of all present and future Holders of the

Certificates.

 

         Section 2.07 CONVEYANCE OF SUBSEQUENT MORTGAGE LOANS.

 

         (a) Subject to the conditions set forth in paragraph (b) below in

consideration of the Trustee's delivery on the Subsequent Transfer Dates to or

upon the order of the Depositor of all or a portion of the balance of funds in

the Pre-Funding Accounts, the Depositor shall on any Subsequent Transfer Date

sell, transfer, assign, set over and convey without recourse to the Trust Fund

but subject to the other terms and provisions of this Agreement all of the

right, title and interest of the Depositor in an to (i) the Subsequent Mortgage

Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached to the related

Subsequent Transfer Instrument delivered by the Depositor on such Subsequent

Transfer Date, (ii) all interest accruing thereon on and after the Subsequent

Cut-off Date and all collections in respect of interest and principal due after

the Subsequent Cut-off Date and (iii) all items with respect to such Subsequent

Mortgage Loans to be delivered pursuant to Section 2.01 and the other items in

the related Mortgage Files; provided, however, that the Depositor reserves and

retains all right, title and interest in and to principal received and interest

accruing on the Subsequent Mortgage Loans prior to the related Subsequent

Cut-off Date. The transfer to the Trustee by the Depositor of the Subsequent

Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule shall be absolute and is

intended by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the

Certificateholders to constitute and to be treated as a sale of the Subsequent

Mortgage Loans by the Depositor to the Trust Fund. The related Mortgage File for

each Subsequent Mortgage Loan shall be delivered to the Trustee at least three

(3) Business Days prior to the related Subsequent Transfer Date.

 

          The purchase price paid by the Trustee from amounts released from the

Group I Pre-Funding Account or the Group II Pre-Funding Account, as applicable,

shall be 100% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the related

Subsequent Mortgage Loans so transferred (as identified on the Mortgage Loan

Schedule attached to the related Subsequent Transfer Instrument provided by the

Depositor). This Agreement shall constitute a fixed-price contract in accordance

with Section 860G(a)(3)(A)(ii) of the Code.

 

          (b) The Depositor shall transfer to the Trustee for deposit in the pool

of Mortgage Loans the Subsequent Mortgage Loans and the other property and

rights related thereto as described in paragraph (a) above, and the Trustee

shall release funds from the Group I Pre-Funding Account or the Group II

Pre-Funding Account, as applicable, only upon the satisfaction of each of the

following conditions on or prior to the related Subsequent Transfer Date:

 

                  (i) the Depositor shall have provided the Trustee and the

         Rating Agencies with a timely Addition Notice and shall have provided

         any information reasonably requested by the Trustee with respect to the

         Subsequent Mortgage Loans;

 

                  (ii) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Trustee a duly

         executed Subsequent Transfer Instrument, which shall include a Mortgage

         Loan Schedule listing the Subsequent Mortgage Loans, and the Seller

         shall have delivered a computer file acceptable to the Trustee

         containing such Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee at least three

         (3) Business Days prior to the related Subsequent Transfer Date;

 

                  (iii) as of each Subsequent Transfer Date, as evidenced by

         delivery of the Subsequent Transfer Instrument, the Depositor shall not

         be insolvent nor shall it have been rendered insolvent by such transfer

         nor shall it be aware of any pending insolvency;

 

                  (iv) such sale and transfer shall not result in a material

         adverse tax consequence to the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders;

 

                  (v) the Funding Period shall not have terminated;

 

                  (vi) the Depositor shall not have selected the Subsequent

          Mortgage Loans in a manner that it believed to be adverse to the

         interests of the Certificateholders;

 

                  (vii) the NIM Insurer, if any, must consent to such

         conveyance;

 

                  (viii) the Depositor shall have delivered to the Trustee a
