the
Depositor cannot deliver the Mortgage,
Assignments of Mortgage, or assumption,
consolidation or modification agreement, as
the case may be, with evidence of
recording thereon concurrently with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement
solely because of a delay caused by the
public recording office where such
Mortgage, Assignments of Mortgage, or
assumption, consolidation or modification
agreement, as the case may be, has been
delivered for recordation, the Depositor
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to
the Trustee written notice stating
that such Mortgage, Assignments of
Mortgage, or assumption, consolidation or
modification agreement, as the case may be,
has been delivered to the
appropriate public recording office for
recordation. Thereafter, the Depositor
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to
the Trustee such Mortgage, Assignments
of Mortgage, or assumption, consolidation
or modification agreement, as the case
may be, with evidence of recording
indicated thereon upon receipt thereof from
the public recording office.
With respect to any Non-MERS Mortgage Loans which are not Co-op
Loans,
and as to which the related Mortgaged
Property is located in Florida, the
Servicer shall cause to be recorded in the
appropriate public recording office
for real property records each Assignment
of Mortgage referred to in this
Section 2.01 as soon as practicable. With
respect to any Non-MERS Mortgage Loans
which are not Co-op Loans as to which the
related Mortgaged Property is located
outside of Florida, the Servicer shall not
be obligated to cause to be recorded
the Assignment of Mortgage referred to in
this Section 2.01. With respect to
Co-op Loans as to which the related
dwelling unit is located in Florida, the
Servicer shall cause to be filed in the
appropriate filing office the Form UCC-3
referred to in this Section 2.01 as soon as
practicable. With respect to any
Co-op Loans as to which the related
dwelling unit is located outside Florida,
the Servicer shall not be obligated to
cause to be filed the Form UCC-3 referred
to in this Section 2.01. While each such
Assignment of Mortgage or Form UCC-3 is
being recorded or filed, as applicable, the
Servicer shall deliver to the
Trustee a photocopy of such document. If
any such Assignment of Mortgage or Form
UCC-3 is returned unrecorded or unfiled to
the Servicer because of any defect
therein, the Servicer shall cause such
defect to be cured and such document to
be recorded or filed in accordance with
this paragraph. The Depositor shall
deliver or cause to be delivered each such
original recorded or filed Assignment
of Mortgage and intermediate assignment or
Form UCC-3 to the Trustee within 270
days of the Closing Date or shall deliver
to the Trustee on or before such date
an Officer's Certificate stating that such
document has been delivered to the
appropriate public recording or filing
office for recording or filing, but has
not been returned solely because of a delay
caused by such recording or filing
office. In any event, the Depositor shall
use all reasonable efforts to cause
each such document with evidence of
recording or filing thereon to be delivered
to the Trustee within 300 days of the
Closing Date.
With respect to each MERS Mortgage Loan, the Trustee, at the
expense of
the Depositor and at the direction and with
the cooperation of the Servicer,
shall cause to be taken such actions as are
necessary to cause the Trustee to be
clearly identified as the owner of each
such Mortgage Loan on the records of
MERS for purposes of the system of
recording transfers of beneficial ownership
of mortgages maintained by MERS.
27
<PAGE>
The ownership of each Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and the contents
of
the related Mortgage File is vested in the
Trustee. Neither the Depositor nor
the Servicer shall take any action
inconsistent with such ownership and shall
not claim any ownership interest therein.
The Depositor and the Servicer shall
respond to any third party inquiries with
respect to ownership of the Mortgage
Loans by stating that such ownership is
held by the Trustee on behalf of the
Certificateholders. Mortgage documents
relating to the Mortgage Loans not
delivered to the Trustee are and shall be
held in trust by the Servicer or any
Sub-Servicer, for the benefit of the
Trustee as the owner thereof, and the
Servicer's or such Sub-Servicer's
possession of the contents of each Mortgage
File so retained is for the sole purpose of
servicing the related Mortgage Loan,
and such retention and possession by the
Servicer or such Sub-Servicer is in a
custodial capacity only. The Depositor
agrees to take no action inconsistent
with the Trustee's ownership of the
Mortgage Loans, to promptly indicate to all
inquiring parties that the Mortgage Loans
have been sold and to claim no
ownership interest in the Mortgage Loans.
Each Mortgage File and the mortgage
documents relating to the Mortgage Loans
contain proprietary business
information of the Servicer and its
customers. The Trustee and the Depositor
agree that they will not use such
information for business purposes without the
express written consent of the Servicer and
that all such information shall be
kept strictly confidential.
It is the intention of this Agreement that the conveyance of
the
Depositor's right, title and interest in
and to the Trust Fund pursuant to this
Agreement shall constitute a purchase and
sale and not a loan. If a conveyance
of Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the
Depositor is characterized as a pledge
and not a sale, then the Depositor shall be
deemed to have transferred to the
Trustee all of the Depositor's right, title
and interest in, to and under the
obligations of the Seller deemed to be
secured by said pledge; and it is the
intention of this Agreement that the
Depositor shall also be deemed to have
granted to the Trustee a first priority
security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title, and interest in,
to and under the obligations of the
Seller to the Depositor deemed to be
secured by said pledge and that the Trustee
shall be deemed to be an independent
custodian for purposes of perfection of the
security interest granted to the Depositor.
If the conveyance of the Mortgage
Loans from the Depositor to the Trustee is
characterized as a pledge, it is the
intention of this Agreement that this
Agreement shall constitute a security
agreement under applicable law, and that
the Depositor shall be deemed to have
granted to the Trustee a first priority
security interest in all of the
Depositor's right, title and interest in,
to and under the Mortgage Loans, all
payments of principal of or interest on
such Mortgage Loans, all other rights
relating to and payments made in respect of
the Trust Fund, and all proceeds of
any thereof. If the trust created by this
Agreement terminates prior to the
satisfaction of the claims of any Person in
any Certificates, the security
interest created hereby shall continue in
full force and effect and the Trustee
shall be deemed to be the collateral agent
for the benefit of such Person.
In addition to the conveyance made in the first paragraph of
this
Section 2.01, the Depositor does hereby
convey, assign and set over to the
Trustee all of its right, title and
interest in that portion of the Trust Fund
described in items (ii), (iii), (iv) and
(v) of the definition thereof and
further assigns to the Trustee for the
benefit of the Certificateholders those
representations and warranties of the
Seller contained in the Sale Agreement and
described in Section 3.01 hereof and the
benefit of the repurchase obligations
of the Seller described in Sections 2.02
and 3.01 hereof and the obligations of
the Seller contained in the Sale Agreement
to take, at the request of the
Depositor or the Trustee, all action on its
part which is reasonably necessary
to ensure the enforceability of a Mortgage
Loan.
Section 2.02. Acceptance by Trustee.
Except as set forth in the Exception Report delivered
contemporaneously
herewith (the "Exception Report"), the
Trustee acknowledges receipt of the
Mortgage Note for each Mortgage Loan and
delivery of a Mortgage File (but does
not acknowledge receipt of all documents
required to be included in such
Mortgage File) with respect to each
Mortgage Loan and declares that it holds and
will hold such documents and any other
documents constituting a part of the
Mortgage Files delivered to it in trust for
the use and benefit of all present
and future Certificateholders. The
Depositor will cause the Seller to repurchase
any Mortgage Loans to which an exception
was taken in the Exception Report
unless such exception is cured to the
satisfaction of the Trustee within 45
Business Days of the Closing Date.
28
<PAGE>
The Trustee agrees, for the benefit of Certificateholders, to
review
each Mortgage File delivered to it within
270 days after the Closing Date to
ascertain that all documents required by
Section 2.01 have been executed and
received, and that such documents relate to
the Mortgage Loans identified in
Exhibit A that have been conveyed to it. If
the Trustee finds any document or
documents constituting a part of a Mortgage
File to be missing or defective
(that is, mutilated, damaged, defaced or
unexecuted) in any material respect,
the Trustee shall promptly (and in any
event within no more than five Business
Days) after such finding so notify the
Servicer, the Seller and the Depositor.
In addition, the Trustee shall also notify
the Servicer, the Seller and the
Depositor, if (a) in examining the Mortgage
Files, the documentation shows on
its face (i) any adverse claim, lien or
encumbrance, (ii) that any Mortgage Note
was overdue or had been dishonored, (iii)
any evidence on the face of any
Mortgage Note or Mortgage of any security
interest or other right or interest
therein, or (iv) any defense against or
claim to the Mortgage Note by any party
or (b) the original Mortgage with evidence
of recording thereon with respect to
a Mortgage Loan is not received within 270
days of the Closing Date; provided,
however, that if the Depositor cannot
deliver the original Mortgage with
evidence of recording thereon because of a
delay caused by the public recording
office where such Mortgage has been
delivered for recordation, the Depositor
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to
the Trustee written notice stating
that such Mortgage has been delivered to
the appropriate public recording
officer for recordation and thereafter the
Depositor shall deliver or cause to
be delivered such Mortgage with evidence of
recording thereon upon receipt
thereof from the public recording office.
The Trustee shall request that the
Seller correct or cure such omission,
defect or other irregularity, or
substitute a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the
provisions of Section 3.03, within 60
days from the date the Seller was notified
of such omission or defect and, if
the Seller does not correct or cure such
omission or defect within such period,
that the Seller purchase such Mortgage Loan
from the Trustee within 90 days from
the date the Trustee notified the Seller of
such omission, defect or other
irregularity at the Purchase Price of such
Mortgage Loan. The Purchase Price for
any Mortgage Loan purchased pursuant to
this Section 2.02 shall be paid to the
Servicer and deposited by the Servicer in
the Collection Account promptly upon
receipt, and, upon receipt by the Trustee
of written notification of such
deposit signed by a Servicing Officer, the
Trustee shall promptly release to the
Seller the related Mortgage File and the
Trustee shall execute and deliver such
instruments of transfer or assignment,
without recourse, as shall be necessary
to vest in the Seller or its designee, as
the case may be, any Mortgage Loan
released pursuant hereto, and the Trustee
shall have no further responsibility
with regard to such Mortgage Loan. It is
understood and agreed that the
obligation of the Seller to purchase, cure
or substitute any Mortgage Loan as to
which a material defect in or omission of a
constituent document exists shall
constitute the sole remedy respecting such
defect or omission available to the
Trustee on behalf of Certificateholders.
The Trustee shall be under no duty or
obligation to inspect, review and examine
such documents, instruments,
certificates or other papers to determine
that they are genuine, enforceable or
appropriate to the represented purpose, or
that they have actually been
recorded, or that they are other than what
they purport to be on their face. The
Trustee shall keep confidential the name of
each Mortgagor and shall not solicit
any such Mortgagor for the purpose of
refinancing the related Mortgage Loan.
Within 280 days of the Closing Date, the Trustee shall deliver to
the
Depositor and the Servicer the Trustee's
Certification, substantially in the
form of Exhibit G attached hereto, setting
forth the status of the Mortgage
Files as of such date.
Section 2.03. Trust Fund; Authentication of Certificates.
The Trustee acknowledges and accepts the assignment to it of the
Trust
Fund created pursuant to this Agreement in
trust for the use and benefit of all
present and future Certificateholders. The
Trustee acknowledges the assignment
to it for the benefit of the Trust Fund of
the Mortgage Loans and has caused to
be authenticated and delivered to or upon
the order of the Depositor, in
exchange for the Mortgage Loans,
Certificates duly authenticated by the Trustee
or, if an Authenticating Agent has been
appointed pursuant to Section 4.06, the
Authenticating Agent in authorized
denominations evidencing ownership of the
entire Trust Fund.
29
<PAGE>
Section 2.04. REMIC Election.
(a) The Depositor hereby instructs and authorizes the Trustee to
make
an appropriate election to treat each of
the Trust Fund as a REMIC. This
Agreement shall be construed so as to carry
out the intention of the parties
that the Trust Fund be treated as a REMIC
at all times prior to the date on
which the Trust Fund is terminated. The
Closing Date is hereby designated as the
"startup day" of the REMIC within the
meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.
The "regular interests" (within the meaning
of Section 860G(a)(1) of the Code)
in the REMIC shall consist of the Class A
Certificates (other than the Class A-R
Certificate), the Class M Certificates and
the Class B Certificates, and the
"residual interest" (within the meaning of
Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code) in
the REMIC shall consist of the Class A-R
Certificate, and all such interests
shall be designated as such on the Startup
Day. Solely for the purposes of
Section 1.860G-1(a)(4)(iii) of the Treasury
regulations, the "latest possible
maturity date" by which the Outstanding
Certificate Principal Balance of each
Class of Certificates representing a
regular interest in the REMIC would be
reduced to zero is the Distribution Date
immediately following the latest
scheduled maturity of any Mortgage
Loan.
(b) The "tax matters person" with respect to the Trust Fund for
purposes of the REMIC provisions shall be
the beneficial owner of the Class A-R
Certificate; provided, however, that such
beneficial owner of a Class A-R
Certificate, by its acceptance thereof,
irrevocably appoints the Servicer as its
agent and attorney-in-fact to act as "tax
matters person" with respect to the
Trust Fund for purposes of the REMIC
provisions.
(c) It is intended that the Trust Fund shall constitute, and that
the
affairs of the Trust Fund shall be
conducted so as to qualify the Trust Fund as,
a "real estate mortgage investment conduit"
as defined in and in accordance with
the REMIC Provisions. In furtherance of
such intention, the Servicer covenants
and agrees that it shall act as agent (and
the Servicer is hereby appointed to
act as agent) on behalf of the Trust Fund
and the Holder of the Class A-R
Certificate and that in such capacity it
shall:

statements
or information at such times and in such manner as may be
required
thereby;

shall
act as the representative of the Trust Fund for this purpose),
together
with such additional information as may be required by such Form,
and
shall update such information at the time or times in the
manner
required by the Code;
(iii) make or cause to be made an election, on behalf of the
Trust Fund, to be treated as a REMIC, and make the appropriate
designations, if applicable, in accordance with this Section 2.04
on
the federal tax return of the Trust Fund for its first taxable
year
(and, if necessary, under applicable state law);
30
<PAGE>
(iv) prepare and forward, or cause to be prepared and
forwarded, to the Certificateholders and to the Internal

and
when required to be provided to them in accordance with the
REMIC
Provisions, including without limitation, the calculation of
any
original issue discount;
(v) provide information necessary for the computation of tax
imposed on the transfer of the Class A-R Certificate to a
Disqualified
Organization, or an agent (including a broker, nominee or other

in
which a Disqualified Organization is the record holder of an
interest
(the reasonable cost of computing and furnishing such information
may
be charged to the Person liable for such tax);
(vi) ensure that federal, state or local income tax or
information returns shall be signed by the Trustee or such other
person
as may be required to sign such returns by the Code or state or

be required by the Code and, as may be necessary to prepare the
foregoing returns, schedules, statements or information.

The Trust is created for the object and purpose of engaging in
the
Permitted Activities.
Section 2.06. Qualifying Special Purpose Entity.

shall be treated as a "qualifying special
purpose entity" as such term is used
in SFAS 140 and any successor rule thereto
and its power and authority as stated
in Section 2.05 of this Agreement shall be
limited in accordance with paragraph
35 thereof.

The Servicer represents and warrants to, and covenants with,
the

State of New Jersey, and the Servicer is
duly qualified or registered as a foreign
corporation in good standing in each
jurisdiction in which the ownership or
lease or its properties or the conduct of
its business requires such
qualification;
(b) The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Servicer
and
its performance and compliance with the
terms of this Agreement will not violate
the Servicer's corporate charter or by-laws
or constitute a default (or an event
which, with notice or lapse of time, or
both, would constitute a default) under,
or result in the breach of, any material
contract, agreement or other instrument
to which the Servicer is a party or which
may be applicable to the Servicer or
any of its assets;
(c) This Agreement, assuming due authorization, execution and
delivery
by the Trustee and the Depositor,
constitutes a valid, legal and binding
obligation of the Servicer, enforceable
against it in accordance with the terms
hereof subject to applicable bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
and other laws affecting the enforcement of
creditors' rights generally and to
general principles of equity, regardless of
whether such enforcement is
considered in a proceeding in equity or at
law;
(d) The Servicer is not in default with respect to any order or
decree
of any court or any order, regulation or
demand of any federal, state, municipal
or governmental agency, which default might
have consequences that would
materially and adversely affect the
condition (financial or other) or operations
of the Servicer or its properties or might
have consequences that would affect
its performance hereunder; and
32
<PAGE>
(e) No litigation is pending or, to the best of the Servicer's
knowledge, threatened against the Servicer
which would prohibit its entering
into this Agreement or performing its
obligations under this Agreement.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties
set
forth in this Section 3.02 shall survive
the issuance and delivery of the
Certificates and shall be continuing as
long as any Certificate shall be
outstanding or this Agreement has been
terminated.
Section 3.03. Option to Substitute.
If the Seller is required to repurchase any Mortgage Loan pursuant
to
Section 2.02 or 3.01, the Seller may, at
its option, within two years from the
Closing Date, remove such defective
Mortgage Loan from the terms of this
Agreement and substitute another mortgage
loan for such defective Mortgage Loan,
in lieu of repurchasing such defective
Mortgage Loan. Any substitute Mortgage
Loan shall (a) have a Principal Balance at
the time of substitution not in
excess of the Principal Balance of the
removed Mortgage Loan (the amount of any
difference, plus one month's interest
thereon at the Mortgage Rate borne by the
removed Mortgage Loan, being paid by the
Seller and deemed to be a Principal
Prepayment to be deposited by the Servicer
in the Collection Account), (b) have
a Mortgage Rate not less than, and not more
than one percentage point greater
than, the Mortgage Rate of the removed
Mortgage Loan (provided, however, that if
the Mortgage Rate on the substitute
Mortgage Loan exceeds the Mortgage Rate on
the removed Mortgage Loan, the amount of
that excess interest (the "Substitute
Excess Interest") shall be payable to the
Residual Interest), (c) have a
remaining term to stated maturity not later
than, and not more than one year
less than, the remaining term to stated
maturity of the removed Mortgage Loan,
(d) be, in the reasonable determination of
the Servicer, of the same type,
quality and character (including location
of the Mortgaged Property (or
Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case
of a Co-op Loan)) as the removed
Mortgage Loan as if the breach had not
occurred, (e) have a Loan-to-Value Ratio
at origination no greater than that of the
removed Mortgage Loan and (f) be, in
the reasonable determination of the
Servicer, in material compliance with the
representations and warranties contained in
the Sale Agreement and described in
Section 3.01, as of the date of
substitution.
The Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect
the
withdrawal of the removed Mortgage Loan
from this Agreement and the substitution
of such substitute Mortgage Loan therefor
and shall send a copy of such amended
Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Trustee. The
Sale Agreement provides that upon
such amendment the Seller shall be deemed
to have made as to such substitute
Mortgage Loan the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 3.01 as of
the date of such substitution, which shall
be continuing as long as any
Certificate shall be outstanding or this
Agreement has not been terminated, and
the remedies for breach of any such
representation or warranty shall be as set
forth in Section 3.01. Upon such amendment,
the Trustee shall review the
Mortgage File delivered to it relating to
the substitute Mortgage Loan, within
the time and in the manner and with the
remedies specified in Section 2.02,
except that for purposes of this Section
3.03 (other than the two-year period
specified in the first sentence of this
Section), such time shall be measured
from the date of the applicable
substitution. In the event of such a
substitution, accrued interest on the
substitute Mortgage Loan for the month in
which the substitution occurs and any
Principal Prepayments made thereon during
such month shall be the property of the
Trust Fund, and accrued interest for
such month on the Mortgage Loan for which
the substitution is made and any
Principal Prepayments made thereon during
such month shall be the property of
the Seller. The principal payment on a
substitute Mortgage Loan due on the Due
Date in the month of substitution shall be
the property of the Seller, and the
principal payment on the Mortgage Loan for
which the substitution is made due on
such date shall be the property of the
Trust Fund.

independent counsel acceptable to and in
form and substance satisfactory to the
Depositor that such transfer may be made
pursuant to an exemption, describing
the applicable exemption and the basis
therefor, from said Act and laws or is
being made pursuant to said Act and laws,

(ii) the Depositor shall require the
transferee to execute a certification
substantially in the form of Exhibit H or
Exhibit I.
(d) No transfer of an ERISA Restricted Certificate or the Class

any materially similar provisions of
applicable federal, state or local law
("Similar Law"), or a person acting on
behalf of any such plan or using the

regulations set forth in 29 C.F.R.
"2510.3-101 or to be subject to the
fiduciary responsibility provisions of ERISA
or the prohibited transaction provisions of
ERISA or the Code or Similar Law,
will not constitute or result in a
prohibited transaction within the meaning of
Section 406 or 407 of ERISA or Section 4975
of the Code or Similar Law, and will
not subject the Trustee, the Depositor or
the Servicer to any obligation in
addition to those undertaken in this
Agreement, which Opinion of Counsel or
other representation shall not be an
expense of the Trustee, the Depositor or
the Servicer.
(e) At the option of a Certificateholder, a Certificate may be
exchanged for another Certificate or
Certificates of authorized denominations of
a like Class, upon surrender of the
Certificate to be exchanged at any office or
agency of the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent
has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, maintained for such
purpose. Whenever the Certificate is

or
exchange of a Certificate, but the Servicer

that may be imposed in connection with any
transfer or exchange of such
Certificate.
(g) All Certificates surrendered for transfer or exchange shall
be
destroyed by the Trustee or, if a Paying

(h) [Reserved].
(i) A Disqualified Organization is prohibited from acquiring
beneficial
ownership of a Class A-R Certificate.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
contained herein, (i) unless and until the
Servicer shall have received an
Opinion of Counsel, satisfactory to it in
form and substance, to the effect that
the absence of the conditions contained in
this Section 4.02(i) would not result
in the imposition of federal tax upon the
Trust Fund or cause the Trust Fund to
fail to qualify as a REMIC, no transfer,
sale or other disposition of the Class
A-R Certificate (including for purposes of
this section any beneficial interest
therein) may be made without the express
written consent of the Certificate
Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar
is appointed, the Trustee, which
consent is to be granted by the Certificate
Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee only
upon compliance with the requirements
of this Section and (ii) no transfer, sale
or other disposition of the Class A-R
Certificate (or any beneficial interest
therein) may be made to a Person who is
not a U.S. Person unless such Person
furnishes the transferor and the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee,
with a duly completed and effective Form
W-8ECI (or any successor thereto) or an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the
transfer will not be disregarded for
federal income tax purposes. As a condition
to granting its consent to a
transfer of a Class A-R Certificate, the
Certificate Registrar or, if no
Certificate Registrar is appointed, the
Trustee, shall require the proposed
transferee of such Certificate (including,
in the case of the initial issuance
of the Class A-R Certificate, the initial
Holder thereof) to execute a letter
and affidavit substantially in the form
attached hereto as Exhibit K. In the
absence of a contrary instruction from the
transferor of such Certificate,
declaration (11) in such affidavit may be
left blank. If the transferor requests
by written notice to the Certificate
Registrar or, if no Certificate Registrar
is appointed, the Trustee, prior to the
date of the proposed transfer that one
of the two other forms of declaration (11)
of such affidavit be used, then the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee,
shall require that such form of declaration
(11) be included in such affidavit.

<PAGE>
As a condition to the granting of the consent referred to in
this
Section 4.02(i), prior to the transfer,
sale, pledge, hypothecation or other
disposition of the Class A-R Certificate or
any interest therein, the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee
shall require that (1) the proposed
transferee deliver to the Trustee its
taxpayer identification number and state,
under penalties of perjury that such
number is the social security or employer
identification number, as the case may
be, of the transferee or provide an
affidavit under penalties of perjury stating
that as of the date of such transfer such
transferee is not and has no intention
of becoming a Disqualified Organization;
(2) the proposed transferee deliver to
the Trustee an affidavit stating (i) that
such transferee is not acquiring such
Class A-R Certificate as an agent, broker,
nominee, or middleman for a
Disqualified Organization, (ii) if the
Class A-R Certificate is a "non-economic
residual interest" within the meaning of
Treas. Reg. "1.860E-1(c)(2), (X) that
no purpose of the acquisition of the Class
A-R Certificate is to avoid or impede
the assessment or collection of tax, (Y)
that such transferee has historically
paid its debts as they came due and will
continue to pay its debts as they come
due, and (Z) that such transferee
represents that it understands that, as the
holder of the non-economic residual
interest, the transferee may incur tax
liabilities in excess of any cash flows
generated by the interest and that the
transferee intends to pay taxes associated
with holding the residual interest,
and (iii) unless the Certificate Registrar
or, if no Certificate Registrar is
appointed, the Trustee consents to the
transfer of the Class A-R Certificate to
a Person who is not a U.S. Person and who
has furnished either a duly completed
and effective Form W-8ECI (or any successor
thereto) or an Opinion of Counsel to
the effect that the transfer will not be
disregarded for federal income tax
purposes, that it is a U.S. Person; (3) if
so requested by the transferor in
written notice provided to the Certificate
Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee, prior
to the date of the proposed transfer,
the proposed transferee deliver to the
Trustee an affidavit that includes a
declaration made in the form of declaration
(11) in the affidavit set forth in
Exhibit K requested by the transferor; and
(4) the transferor deliver to the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee
a written certification that as of the date
of such transfer it has no knowledge
and no reason to know that the affirmations
described in clauses (1), (2) and
(3) were false. The Certificate Registrar
or, if no Certificate Registrar is
appointed, the Trustee shall not grant the
consent referred to in this Section
4.02(i) if it has actual knowledge that any
statement made in the affidavit
issued pursuant to the preceding sentence
is not true. Notwithstanding any
purported transfer, sale or other
disposition of the Class A-R Certificate to a
Disqualified Organization, such transfer,
sale or other disposition shall be
deemed to be of no legal force or effect
whatsoever and such Disqualified
Organization shall not be deemed to be a
Class A-R Certificateholder for any
purpose hereunder, including, but not
limited to, the receipt of distributions
on such Class A-R Certificate. If any
purported transfer shall be in violation
of the provisions of this Section 4.02(i)
then the prior holder of the Class A-R
Certificate shall, upon discovery that the
transfer of such Class A-R
Certificate was not in fact permitted by
this Section 4.02(i), be restored to
all rights and obligations as a Holder
thereof retroactive to the date of the
purported transfer of such Class A-R
Certificate. The Trustee and the Servicer
shall be under no liability to any Person
for any registration or transfer of a
Class A-R Certificate that is not permitted
by this Section 4.02(i) or for
making payments due on such Class A-R
Certificate to the purported Holder
thereof or taking any other action with
respect to such purported Holder under
the provisions of this Agreement so long as
the transfer was not registered
under the written certification of the
Certificate Registrar or, if no
Certificate Registrar is appointed, the
Trustee as described in this Section
4.02(i). The prior Holder shall be entitled
to recover from any purported Holder
of a Class A-R Certificate that was in fact
not a permitted purported transferee
under this Section 4.02(i) at the time it
became a purported Holder all payments
made to such purported Holder on such Class
A-R Certificate; provided that the
Servicer shall not be responsible for such
recovery. Each Class A-R
Certificateholder, by the acceptance of the
Class A-R Certificate, shall be
deemed for all purposes to have consented
to the provisions of this Section
4.02(i) and to any amendment to this
Agreement deemed necessary by counsel of
the Trustee or the Servicer to ensure that
the Class A-R Certificate is not
transferred to a Disqualified Organization
and that any transfer of such Class
A-R Certificate will not cause the
imposition of a tax upon the Trust Fund or
cause the Trust Fund to fail to qualify as
a REMIC. The restrictions on transfer
of the Class A-R Certificate will cease to
apply and be void upon receipt by the
Certificate Registrar or, if no Certificate
Registrar is appointed, the Trustee
of an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that
such restrictions on transfer are no
longer necessary to avoid the risk of
material federal taxation to the Trust
Fund or prevent the Trust Fund from
qualifying as a REMIC.
(j) The Servicer shall make available upon written request to
each
Holder and each proposed transferee of a
Class A-X, Class B-3, Class B-4 or
Class B-5 Certificate such information as
may be required to permit the proposed
transfer to be effected pursuant to Rule
144A under the Securities Act of 1933,
as amended.

Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, or the
Trustee or, if a Paying Agent has been
appointed under Section 4.05, the Paying
Agent, receives evidence to its
satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft
of any Certificate, and (b) there is
delivered to the Trustee or, if a Paying
Agent has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, such security or
indemnity as may be required by it to save

notice to the Trustee or, if a Paying Agent
has been appointed under Section
4.05, the Paying Agent, that such
Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide
purchaser, the Trustee or, if a Paying
Agent has been appointed under Section

and deliver, in exchange for or in
lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Certificate, a new
Certificate of like tenor and Class. Upon
the issuance of any new Certificate
under this Section, the Trustee or, if a
Paying Agent has been appointed under
Section 4.05, the Paying Agent, may require
of the Certificateholder the payment
of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or
other governmental charge that may be
imposed in relation thereto and any other
expenses connected therewith. Any
replacement Certificate of any Class issued
pursuant to this Section shall
constitute complete and indefeasible
evidence of ownership of the Percentage
Interest in the distributions to which the
Certificateholders of such Class are
entitled, as if originally issued, whether
or not the mutilated, destroyed, lost
or stolen Certificate shall be found at any
time, and such mutilated, destroyed,
lost or stolen Certificate shall be of no
force or effect under this Agreement,

Certificateholders of such Class are entitled on the
relevant date as the Holder of such
Certificate and the Percentage Interest
represented by such Certificate for the
purpose of receiving remittances

purposes whatsoever, and neither the
Depositor, the Servicer nor the Trustee
shall be affected by notice to the
contrary.

Registrar;

The Trustee may appoint a Paying Agent and a Certificate
Registrar
hereunder, but such Paying Agent and such
Certificate Registrar shall not be the

appointment of such Paying Agent, no
later than two Business Days prior to each

deposit or cause to be deposited with the
Paying Agent from funds on deposit in
the Collection Account a sum up to the
Available Distribution Amount, such sum
to be held in trust for the benefit of
Certificateholders in a segregated

shall be an Eligible Account in the
name of "[TRUSTEE], as Trustee, in trust
for and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders of Multi-Class Mortgage

If, on any Distribution Date, the Paying Agent fails to distribute
to
Certificateholders the amounts then on
deposit in the Certificate Account for
the purposes specified herein, the Trustee
shall be obligated promptly upon its
knowledge thereof to distribute such
amounts to Certificateholders in the manner
and in such amounts based upon information
provided by the Servicer; provided
that in no event shall the Trustee be
obligated for purposes of this paragraph
to distribute to Certificateholders any

the Certificate Account or expend any funds
not reimbursable pursuant to Section
10.05 hereof, except as otherwise provided
herein. Notwithstanding anything in
this Agreement to the contrary, the Trustee

that such Paying Agent will hold all
sums held by it for the payment to
Certificateholders in trust for the benefit
of the Certificateholders entitled thereto
until such sums shall be paid to such
Certificateholders.
Section 4.06. Authenticating Agents.
(a) The Trustee may appoint one or more Authenticating Agents
(each, an
"Authenticating Agent") which shall be
authorized to act on behalf of the
Trustee in authenticating the Certificates.
Wherever reference is made in this
Agreement to the authentication of
Certificates by the Trustee or the Trustee's
certificate of authentication, such
reference shall be deemed to include
authentication on behalf of the Trustee by
an Authenticating Agent and a
certificate of authentication executed on
behalf of the Trustee by an
Authenticating Agent. Each Authenticating
Agent must be an entity organized and
doing business under the laws of the United
States of America or of any state,
having a combined capital and surplus of at
least $15,000,000, authorized under
such laws to do a trust business and
subject to supervision or examination by
federal or state authorities. If the
Authenticating Agent is a party other than
the Trustee, the Trustee shall have no
liability in connection with the
performance or failure of performance of
the Authenticating Agent. [The Trustee
hereby appoints Chase as the initial
Authenticating Agent.]
(b) Any Person into which any Authenticating Agent may be merged
or
converted or with which it may be
consolidated, or any Person resulting from any
merger, conversion or consolidation to
which any Authenticating Agent shall be a
party, or any Person succeeding to the
corporate agency business of any
Authenticating Agent, shall continue to be
the Authenticating Agent without the
execution or filing of any paper or any
further act on the part of the Trustee
or the Authenticating Agent.
(c) Any Authenticating Agent may at any time resign by giving at
least
30 days' advance written notice of
resignation to the Trustee and the Depositor.
The Trustee may at any time terminate the
agency of any Authenticating Agent by
giving written notice of termination to
such Authenticating Agent and the
Depositor. Upon receiving a notice of
resignation or upon such a termination, or
in case at any time any Authenticating
Agent shall cease to be eligible in
accordance within the provisions of this
Section 4.06, the Trustee may appoint a
successor Authenticating Agent, shall give
written notice of such appointment to
the Depositor and shall mail notice of such
appointment to all Holders of
Certificates. Any successor Authenticating
Agent upon acceptance of its
appointment hereunder shall become vested
with all the rights, powers, duties
and responsibilities of its predecessor
hereunder, with like effect as if
originally named as Authenticating Agent.
No successor Authenticating Agent
shall be appointed unless eligible under
the provisions of this Section 4.06. No
Authenticating Agent shall have
responsibility or liability for any action taken
by it as such at the direction of the
Trustee. Any Authenticating Agent shall be
entitled to reasonable compensation for its
services and any such compensation
shall be payable solely by the Trustee,
without any right of reimbursement from
the Depositor, the Servicer or the Trust
Fund.

ARTICLE V
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 5.01. Servicer to Service Mortgage Loans.
The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans and
shall
have full power and authority, acting alone
or through Sub-Servicers as provided
in Section 5.02, to do any and all things
which it may deem necessary or
desirable in connection with such servicing
and administration, all in
accordance with Accepted Servicing
Practices. Without limiting the generality of
the foregoing, the Servicer in its own name
or in the name of a Sub-Servicer
shall, pursuant to a power of attorney
granted hereby by the Trustee for such
purposes, when the Servicer or the
Sub-Servicer, as the case may be, believes it
appropriate in its best judgment, execute
and deliver, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee or any
of them, any and all instruments of
satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial
or full release or discharge and all
other comparable instruments, with respect
to the Mortgage Loans and with
respect to the Mortgaged Properties;
provided, however, that subject to the
provisions of this paragraph, the Servicer
may allow a modification with respect
to a Mortgage Loan if the Servicer would
take such action in the ordinary course
of its business if it were the owner of the
Mortgage Loan. The Servicer may
agree to a modification of any Mortgage
Loan (the "Relevant Mortgage Loan") upon
the request of the related Mortgagor,
provided that (i) the modification is in
lieu of a refinancing and the Mortgage Rate
on the Relevant Mortgage Loan, as
modified, is approximately a prevailing
market rate of newly-originated mortgage
loans having similar terms, (ii) the
aggregate of the adjusted bases of all
Modified Mortgage Loans (including the
Relevant Mortgage Loans) plus the
aggregate adjusted bases of any assets that
are not qualified mortgages or
permitted investments under Section 860G(a)
of the Code that are assets of the
Trust Fund established hereunder at all
times on any day is less than one
percent of the aggregate of the adjusted
bases of all assets of the Trust Fund
(including such Modified Mortgage Loans) on
such day, and (iii) the Servicer
purchases the Relevant Mortgage Loan from
the Trust Fund as described below.
Effective immediately after such
modification, and, in any event, on the same
Business Day on which the modification
occurs, all right, title and interest of
the Trustee in and to the Modified Mortgage
Loan shall automatically be deemed
transferred and assigned to the Servicer
and all benefits and burdens of
ownership thereof, including without
limitation the right to accrued interest
thereon from and including the date of
modification and the risk of default
thereon, shall pass to the Servicer. To
confirm such transfer and assignment,
the Servicer, as servicer hereunder, as
soon as practicable shall execute an
instrument of assignment of the Modified
Mortgage Loan without recourse in
customary form to the Servicer in its
individual capacity. The Servicer shall
deposit the Purchase Price for any Modified
Mortgage Loan in the Collection
Account pursuant to Section 5.08. Upon
receipt by the Trustee of written
notification of any such deposit signed by
a Servicing Officer, the Trustee
shall release to the Servicer the related
Mortgage File and shall execute and
deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment, in each case without
recourse, as shall be necessary more fully
to vest in the Servicer any Modified
Mortgage Loan previously transferred and
assigned pursuant thereto.
The Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee for execution and
redelivery
to the Servicer or, at the request of the
Servicer, a Sub-Servicer, such
documents necessary or appropriate to
enable the Servicer to service and
administer the Mortgage Loans and the
Trustee shall not be responsible for the
Servicer's application thereof. The
Servicer agrees to remain eligible as either
a FNMA or FHLMC seller/servicer, or both,
for so long as it is Servicer.
All Servicing Advances made by the Servicer in effecting the
timely
payment of taxes, insurance and assessments
on the properties subject to the
Mortgage Loans shall not, for the purpose
of calculating monthly distributions
to Certificateholders, be added to the
amount owing under the related Mortgage
Loans, notwithstanding that the terms of
such Mortgage Loan so permit, and such
Servicing Advances shall be recoverable by
the Servicer to the extent permitted
by Sections 5.09 and 5.23.

Section 5.02. Sub-Servicing Agreements Between Servicer and
Sub-Servicers; Enforcement of Sub-Servicer's Obligations.
(a) The Servicer may enter into Sub-Servicing Agreements with
Sub-Servicers for the servicing and
administration of all or part of the
Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that any
subservicer or other subcontractor
that performs any of the functions
indentified in Item 1122(d) of Regulation AB
must agree in writing that, if the Servicer
or the Depositor determines that
such subcontractor was "participating in
the servicing function" within the
meaning of Item 1122, such subcontractor
will comply with the provisions of
Sections 5.25 and 5.26 to the same extent
as if it were the Servicer. References
in this Agreement to actions taken or to be
taken by the Servicer in servicing
the Mortgage Loans include actions taken or
to be taken by a Sub-Servicer on
behalf of the Servicer. Each Sub-Servicing
Agreement will be upon such terms and
conditions as are not inconsistent with
this Agreement and as the Servicer and
the Sub-Servicer have agreed. The Servicer
shall notify the Trustee in writing
promptly upon the appointment of any
Sub-Servicer. For purposes of this
Agreement, the receipt by the Sub-Servicer
of any amount with respect to a
Mortgage Loan (other than amounts
representing servicing compensation or
reimbursement for an advance) shall be
treated as the receipt by the Servicer of
such amount. The Sub-Servicer shall deposit
all such funds in an Eligible
Account.
(b) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer,
for
the benefit of the Trustee and the
Certificateholders, shall enforce the
obligations of each Sub-Servicer under the
related Sub-Servicing Agreement. Such
enforcement, including, without limitation,
the legal prosecution of claims,
termination of Sub-Servicing Agreements as
appropriate, and the pursuit of other
remedies, shall be in such form and carried
out to such an extent and at such
time as the Servicer, in its good faith
business judgment, would require were it
the owner of the related Mortgage Loans.
The Servicer shall pay the costs of
such enforcement at its own expense but
shall be reimbursed therefor only (i)
from a general recovery resulting from such
enforcement only to the extent, if
any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts
due in respect of the related
Mortgage Loans or (ii) from a specific
recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys'
fees against the party against whom such
enforcement is directed.
Section 5.03. Successor Sub-Servicers.
The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Sub-Servicing
Agreement
that may exist in accordance with the terms
and conditions of such Sub-Servicing
Agreement and without any limitation by
virtue of this Agreement.
Section 5.04. Liability of the Servicer.
Notwithstanding any Sub-Servicing Agreement, any of the provisions
of
this Agreement relating to agreements or
arrangements between the Servicer and a
Sub-Servicer or reference to actions taken
through a Sub-Servicer or otherwise,
the Servicer shall remain obligated and
liable to the Trustee and
Certificateholders for the servicing and
administering of the Mortgage Loans in
accordance with the provisions of this
Agreement without diminution of such
obligation or liability by virtue of such
Sub-Servicing Agreements or
arrangements or by virtue of
indemnification from the Sub-Servicer and to the
same extent and under the same terms and
conditions as if the Servicer alone
were servicing and administering the
Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall be
entitled to enter into any agreement with a
Sub-Servicer for indemnification of
the Servicer and nothing contained in this
Agreement shall be deemed to limit or
modify such indemnification.
Section 5.05. No Contractual Relationship Between Sub-Servicer
and
Trustee or Certificateholders.
Any Sub-Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any
other
transactions or services relating to the
Mortgage Loans involving a Sub-Servicer
in its capacity as such and not as an
originator shall be deemed to be between
the Sub-Servicer and the Servicer alone,
and the Trustee and Certificateholders
shall not be deemed parties thereto and
shall have no claims, rights,
obligations, duties or liabilities with
respect to the Sub-Servicer.
42
<PAGE>
Section 5.06.
Termination of Sub-Servicing Agreement.
If the Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Servicer
hereunder (including by reason of any Event
of Default), the Servicer shall
thereupon terminate each Sub-Servicing
Agreement that may have been entered
into, and the Trustee, its designee or the
successor servicer and the Trustee
shall not be deemed to have assumed any of
the Servicer's interest therein or to
have replaced the Servicer as a party to
any such Sub-Servicing Agreement.
Section 5.07. Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.
Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest
on
all Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the
Servicer will proceed diligently to
collect all payments due under each of the
Mortgage Loans when the same shall
become due and payable; provided, however,
that the Servicer may elect, to the
extent consistent with Accepted Servicing
Practices, to waive any late payment
charge and shall, to the extent such
procedures shall be consistent with this
Agreement, follow such collection
procedures as it follows with respect to
conventional mortgage loans held in its own
portfolio. Any such arrangements
shall not diminish or otherwise affect the
Servicer's obligation to make
Advances pursuant to Section 6.03.
Section 5.08. Establishment of Collection Account; Deposit in
Collection Account.
With respect to all of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall
segregate
and hold all funds collected and received
pursuant to a Mortgage Loan separate
and apart from any of its own funds and
general assets and shall establish and
maintain one or more Collection Accounts
for the benefit of the
Certificateholders (collectively, the
"Collection Account") which are Eligible
Accounts, in the form of a trust account,
in the name of "[TRUSTEE], as Trustee,
in trust for and for the benefit of the
Certificateholders of Multi-Class
Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates,
JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as Servicer, Chase
Mortgage Finance Corporation, Series
[_______] - Collection Account." Such
Collection Account shall be established
with a commercial bank, a savings bank
or a savings and loan association. The
Servicer may invest, or cause the
institution maintaining the Collection
Account to invest, moneys in the
Collection Account in Eligible Investments,
which shall mature not later than
the second Business Day next preceding the
Distribution Date next following the
date of such investment and shall not be
sold or disposed of prior to its
maturity. All income and gain realized from
any such investment shall be for the
benefit of the Servicer as additional
compensation and shall be subject to its
withdrawal or order from time to time. The
amount of any losses incurred in
respect of any such investments (to the
extent not offset by income from other
such investments) shall be deposited in the
Collection Account by the Servicer
out of its own funds immediately as
realized; provided, however, that if the
Trustee becomes Servicer, the Trustee shall
not be required to deposit the
amount of any loss incurred prior to it
becoming Servicer.
The Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited in the
Collection
Account on a daily basis (and not later
than the second Business Day following
receipt), and retain therein:
(a) All payments which were received after the Cut-off Date on
account
of principal of the Mortgage Loans (other
than the principal portion of Monthly
Payments due on or before the Cut-off
Date), and all Principal Prepayments
collected on or after the Cut-off Date;
43
<PAGE>
(b) All payments which were received after the Cut-off Date on
account
of interest on the Mortgage Loans (net of
the Servicing Fee)(other than the

(c) Net Liquidation Proceeds;
(d) All Insurance Proceeds received by the Servicer under any
title,
hazard or other insurance policy, including
amounts required to be deposited
pursuant to Sections 5.16 and 5.20, other
than proceeds to be held in the Escrow
Account or applied to the restoration or
repair of the Mortgaged Property (or
Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case
of a Co-op Loan) or released to the
Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer's
normal servicing procedures or
otherwise applied or held as required by
applicable law;
(e) All awards or settlements in respect of condemnation
proceedings
affecting any Mortgaged Property (or
Underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case
of a Co-op Loan), which are not released to
the Mortgagor in accordance with the
Servicer's normal servicing procedures;
(f) All Repurchase Proceeds;
(g) All Advances made by the Servicer pursuant to Section 6.03;
(h) All amounts representing revenues under the insurance
provided
pursuant to Section 5.19 to the extent of
any losses borne by any
Certificateholder;
(i) All revenues from any Mortgaged Property (or Underlying
Mortgaged
Property in the case of a Co-op Loan)
acquired by the Servicer by foreclosure or
deed in lieu of foreclosure net of any
Servicing Advances with respect to such
Mortgaged Property; and
(j) Any other amounts required to be deposited therein pursuant to
this
Agreement.
The Servicer shall maintain accounting records on a Mortgage
Loan-by-Mortgage Loan basis with respect to
the Collection Account. The Servicer
shall give notice to the Trustee, the
Depositor and each Rating Agency of any
change in the location of the Collection
Account, prior to the use thereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary
herein, no Monthly Payment or any
portion thereof shall be permitted to
remain in the Collection Account for more
than 12 months. Any Monthly Payment or any
portion thereof that has remained in
the Collection Account for 12 months shall
be deemed a Principal Prepayment and
distributed to Certificateholders pursuant
to the provisions of this Agreement
on the Distribution Date immediately
following the end of such 12 month period.
Section 5.09. Permitted Withdrawals from the Collection
Account.
The Servicer may, from time to time, withdraw funds from the
Collection
Account for the following purposes:
(a) to reimburse itself for Advances made pursuant to Section
6.03
(including amounts to reimburse the related
Sub-Servicer for advances made
pursuant to the applicable Sub-Servicing
Agreement), the Servicer's and the
Sub-Servicer's right to receive
reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (i)
being limited to amounts received on
particular Mortgage Loans which represent
Late Collections (net of the Servicing
Fees) with respect to those particular
Mortgage Loans;
(b) to pay itself the Servicing Fee;
44
<PAGE>
(c) to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances, or to
pay
the related Sub-Servicer any unreimbursed

Mortgage Loan being limited to related
Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds,

(h) to make payments to itself or others pursuant to any provision
of
this Agreement, and to clear and terminate
the Collection Account upon the
termination of this Agreement; and
(i) to withdraw amounts deposited in error.
Section 5.10. Establishment of Escrow Account; Deposits in
Escrow
Account.
With respect to those Mortgage Loans on which the Servicer or
any
Sub-Servicer collects Escrow Payments, if
any, the Servicer shall, and shall
cause the Sub-Servicer to, segregate and
hold all funds collected and received
pursuant to each such Mortgage Loan which
constitute Escrow Payments separate
and apart from any of its own funds and
general assets and shall establish and
maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in
the form of trust accounts. Such Escrow
Accounts shall be established with a
commercial bank, a mutual savings bank or a
savings and loan association the deposits
of which are insured by the FDIC in a
manner which shall provide maximum
available insurance thereunder, and which may
be drawn on by the Servicer. The Servicer
shall give notice to the Trustee of
the location of any Escrow Account, and of
any change thereof, prior to the use
thereof. Nothing in this paragraph shall be
deemed to require the Servicer to
collect Escrow Payments in the absence of a
provision in the related Mortgage
requiring such collection.
The Servicer shall deposit, or cause to be deposited, in any
Escrow
Account or Accounts on a daily basis, and
retain therein, (i) all Escrow
Payments collected on account of any
Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of
effecting timely payment of any such items
as required under the terms of this
Agreement and (ii) all amounts representing
proceeds of any hazard insurance
policy which are to be applied to the
restoration or repair of any Mortgaged
Property (or Underlying Mortgaged Property,
in the case of a Co-op Loan). The
Servicer shall make withdrawals therefrom
only to effect such payments as are
required under this Agreement, and for such
other purposes as are set forth in
Section 5.11. The Servicer shall be
entitled to retain any interest paid on
funds deposited in the Escrow Account by
the depository institution other than
interest on escrowed funds required by law
to be paid to the related Mortgagor
and, to the extent required by law, the
Servicer shall pay interest on escrowed
funds to the related Mortgagor
notwithstanding that the Escrow Account is
non-interest-bearing or that interest paid
thereon is insufficient for such
purposes.
Section 5.11. Permitted Withdrawals from Escrow Account.
45
<PAGE>
Withdrawals from any Escrow Account or Accounts may be made by
the
Servicer only (i) to effect timely payments
of ground rents, taxes, assessments,
water rates, Standard Hazard Policy
premiums, or other items constituting Escrow
Payments for the related Mortgage, (ii) to
reimburse the Servicer for any
Servicing Advance made by the Servicer,
with respect to a related Mortgage Loan
but only from amounts received on the
related Mortgage Loan which represent late
payments or collections of Escrow Payments
thereunder, (iii) to refund to any
Mortgagor any funds found to be in excess
of the amounts required under the
terms of the related Mortgage Loan or under
applicable law, (iv) for application
to restoration or repair of the property
subject to the related Mortgage, (v) to
pay to the Servicer, or to the Mortgagor to
the extent required by law, any
interest paid on the funds deposited in the
Escrow Account, (vi) to clear and
terminate the Escrow Account on the
termination of this Agreement or (vii) to
withdraw amounts deposited in error.
Section 5.12. Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain,
or
cause to be maintained, accurate records
reflecting any delinquencies or
nonpayments with regard to taxes,
assessments and Standard Hazard Policy
premiums. The Servicer assumes full
responsibility for ensuring the payment of
all such bills and shall effect payments of
all such bills irrespective of each
Mortgagor's faithful performance in the
payment of same or the making of the
Escrow Payments and shall make advances
from its own funds to effect such
payments.
Section 5.13. Transfer of Accounts.
The Servicer may transfer the Collection Account or Escrow Account
to
an Eligible Account maintained with a
different depository institution from time
to time.
Section 5.14. [Reserved].
Section 5.15. Maintenance of the Primary Insurance Policies.
The Servicer shall not take, or permit any Sub-Servicer to 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 Servicer or Sub-Servicer,
would have been covered thereunder. Except
as otherwise required by applicable
law, to the extent coverage is available
and until the Loan-to-Value Ratio of
the related Mortgage Loan is reduced to
80%, the Servicer shall keep or cause to
be kept in full force and effect each such
Primary Insurance Policy in an amount
equal to the amount by which the unpaid
principal balance of the related
Mortgage Loan exceeds 75% of the value (as
described in the definition of
Loan-to-Value Ratio) of the related
Mortgaged Property (or Underlying Mortgaged
Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan). The
Servicer shall not cancel or refuse
to renew any such Primary Insurance Policy
or consent to any Sub-Servicer
canceling or refusing to renew any such
Primary Insurance Policy applicable to a
Mortgage Loan subserviced by it, 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 an insurer whose
claims-paying ability is rated at
least as high as the original insurer or is
acceptable to each Rating Agency as
confirmed in writing by each such Rating
Agency, unless otherwise required by
law.
Section 5.16. Maintenance of Standard Hazard Policies.
46
<PAGE>
(a) The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage
Loan
(other than a Co-op Loan) a Standard Hazard
Policy with extended coverage as is
prudent in the area where the Mortgaged
Property is located in an amount which
is equal to the greater of (i) the lesser
of (A) 100% of the maximum insurable
value of the improvements securing such
Mortgage Loan or (B) the principal
balance owing on such Mortgage Loan, or
(ii) such amount required to prevent the
Mortgagor or mortgagee from becoming a
co-insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is
in an area identified at the time of
origination in the Federal Register by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency as
having special flood hazards (and such
flood insurance has been made available)
the Servicer will cause to be
maintained a flood insurance policy meeting
the requirements of the current
guidelines of the Federal Insurance
Administration with a generally acceptable
insurance carrier, in an amount
representing coverage not less than the least of
(i) the outstanding Principal Balance of
the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the full
insurable value or (iii) the maximum amount
of insurance which is available
under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of
1973, as amended. The Servicer shall
also maintain on property acquired upon
foreclosure, or by deed in lieu of
foreclosure, of any Mortgage Loan, fire and
hazard insurance with extended
coverage in an amount which is not less
than the lesser of (i) the outstanding
principal balance of the Mortgage Loan or
(ii) the maximum insurable value of
the improvements which are a part of such
property, liability insurance, and, to
the extent available, flood insurance in an
amount as provided above. Any
amounts collected by the Servicer under any
such policies (other than amounts to
be applied to the restoration or repair of
the property subject to the related
Mortgage or property acquired in
liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or released
to the Mortgagor in accordance with the
Servicer's normal servicing procedures)
shall be deposited, subject to applicable
law, in the Collection Account. It is
understood and agreed that no earthquake or
other additional insurance need be
required by the Servicer of any Mortgagor
or maintained on property acquired in
respect of a Mortgage Loan, other than
pursuant to such applicable laws and
regulations as shall at any time be in
force and as shall require such
additional insurance. All such Standard
Hazard Policies and other policies shall
be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses
with loss payable to the Servicer or
its designee. Any such Standard Hazard
Policies or other policies may be in the
form of blanket policies; provided,
however, that in the event of any claim
arising in connection with a hazard loss
the Servicer shall be obligated, in the
case of blanket insurance policies, to
deposit in the Collection Account any
amount not payable under such blanket
policy because of a deductible clause in
such policy and not otherwise payable under
an individual policy. The Servicer
shall not interfere with the Mortgagor's
freedom of choice in selecting either
his insurance carrier or agent; provided,
however, that the Servicer shall not
accept any such insurance policies from
insurance companies unless such
companies are acceptable insurers in the
discretion of the Servicer.
(b) Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any of the
foregoing insurance shall not, for the
purpose of calculating monthly
distributions to Certificateholders, be
added to the amount owing under the
Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the
terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit.
Such costs (other than the costs of
maintaining a blanket hazard insurance
policy not attributable to a specific
Mortgaged Property) shall be recoverable
by the Servicer from the Mortgagor or out
of Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation
Proceeds or to the extent permitted by
Section 5.09.
Section 5.17. [Reserved].
Section 5.18. [Reserved].
Section 5.19. Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance.
The Servicer shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket
fidelity
bond and an errors and omissions insurance
policy, with broad coverage with
responsible companies on all officers,
employees or other persons acting on
behalf of the Servicer in any capacity with
regard to the Mortgage Loans to
handle funds, money, documents and papers
relating to the Mortgage Loans. Any
such fidelity bond and errors and omissions
insurance shall protect and insure
the Servicer against losses, including
forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud,
errors and omissions and negligent acts of
such persons and shall be maintained
at a level acceptable to FNMA. No provision
