If in connection
with any Mortgage Loan which is not a Co-op Loan 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
37
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.
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.
38
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.
The parties hereto
agree and understand that it is not intended that any mortgage loan
be included in the Trust that is any of (i) a “High-Cost
Home Loan” as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act
effective November 27, 2003, (ii) a “High-Cost Home
Loan” as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act
effective January 1, 2004, (iii) a “High-Cost Home
Mortgage Loan” as defined in the Massachusetts Predatory Home
Loan Practices Act effective November 7, 2004 or (iv) a
“High-Cost Home Loan” as defined by the Indiana High
Cost Home Loan Law effective January 1, 2005.
Section 2.02
Acceptance by Trustee . Except as set forth in the Exception
Report delivered contemporaneously herewith (the “Exception
Report”), the Trustee acknowledges receipt by the Custodian
on the Trustee’s behalf 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 the Custodian holds and will hold on the Trustee’s
behalf 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. The Trustee may accept delivery of such
Mortgage Files by the Custodian on its behalf. The Custodian will
deliver a copy of the Exception Report to the Depositor and the
Trustee
The Custodian, on
the Trustee’s behalf, 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
39
Mortgage Loans
identified in Exhibit A that have been conveyed to it. If the
Custodian on the Trustee’s behalf finds any document or
documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File to be missing or
defective (that is, mutilated, damaged, defaced or unexecuted) in
any material respect, the Custodian on the Trustee’s behalf
shall promptly (and in any event within no more than five Business
Days) after such finding so notify the Servicer, the Seller, the
Trustee and the Depositor. In addition, the Custodian on the
Trustee’s behalf shall also notify the Servicer, the Seller,
the Trustee 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 Custodian and 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 Depositor 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 Depositor notified the Seller and
the Trustee 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 based solely on
information provided to it by the Custodian 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 and Uncertificated
REMIC Interests in authorized denominations evidencing ownership of
the entire Trust Fund.
40
Section 2.04
REMIC Elections.
(a) The
Depositor hereby instructs and authorizes the Paying Agent to make
appropriate elections to treat the Trust Fund as comprising two
REMICs (the Lower-Tier REMIC and the Upper-Tier REMIC). This
Agreement shall be construed so as to carry out the intention of
the parties that each REMIC created hereunder 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 each REMIC created hereunder within
the meaning of Section 860G(a)(9) of the Code. The Lower-Tier
REMIC shall hold as assets all property of the Trust Fund other
than (i) the Lower-Tier REMIC Interests and (ii) the
Yield Maintenance Agreements and the Reserve Fund. Each of the
Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests is hereby designated a
“regular interest” (within the meaning of Section
860G(a)(1) of the Code) in the Lower-Tier REMIC. The Upper-Tier
REMIC shall hold as assets the several classes of uncertificated
Lower-Tier REMIC Regular Interests. Each of the Upper-Tier REMIC
Regular Interests is hereby designated as a “regular
interest” (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(1) of the
Code) in the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class LT-R Interest is
hereby designated as the sole residual interest (within the meaning
of Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code) in the Lower-Tier REMIC.
The Residual Interest is hereby designated as the sole residual
interest (within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(2) of the
Code) in the Upper-Tier REMIC. The Class A-R Certificate
evidences ownership of the Class LT-R Interest and the
Residual Interest. All interests described in this
Section 2.04(a) shall be designated as such on the Startup
Day.
