WITNESSETH THAT
In
consideration of the mutual agreements herein contained, the
parties
hereto agree as follows:
PRELIMINARY STATEMENT
The
Depositor is the owner of the Trust Fund that is hereby conveyed
to
the Trustee in return for the Certificates. For federal income tax
purposes,
the Trust Fund (other than the Supplemental Loan Account and the
Capitalized
Interest Account) will consist of two real estate mortgage
investment conduits
(each a "REMIC" or, in the alternative, the "Separate Termination
REMIC" and
the "Master REMIC," respectively). Each Certificate, other than the
Class A R
Certificate, will represent ownership of one or more regular
interests in the
Master REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions. The Class A R
Certificate
represents ownership of the sole class of residual interest in each
of the
Separate Termination REMIC and the Master REMIC. The Master REMIC
will hold as
assets the several classes of uncertificated Separate Termination
REMIC
Interests (other than the Class ST A R Interest). The Separate
Termination
REMIC will hold as assets all property of the Trust Fund (other
than the
Supplemental Loan Account and the Capitalized Interest Account).
Each Separate
Termination REMIC Interest (other than the ST-A-R Interest) is
hereby
designated as a regular interest in the Separate Termination REMIC.
The latest
possible maturity date of all REMIC regular interests created
herein shall be
the Latest Possible Maturity Date.
<PAGE>
The
following table sets forth characteristics of the Master REMIC
Certificates, together with the minimum denominations and integral

in excess thereof in which such Classes shall be issuable (except

herein by such Seller or to repurchase or substitute for any
affected Mortgage

(c) In
connection with the transfer and assignment set forth in clause
(b) above, the Depositor has delivered or caused to be delivered to
the
Trustee (or, in the case of the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans that
are Initial

interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note); or
(B) with respect to any Lost Mortgage Note, a lost note
affidavit from Countrywide stating that the original Mortgage
Note
was lost or destroyed, together with a copy of such Mortgage

a
copy of such Mortgage, with recording information, (or, in the
case of a Mortgage for which the related Mortgaged Property is
located in the Commonwealth of Puerto Rico, a true copy of the
Mortgage certified as such by the applicable notary) and in the
case of each
MERS Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage or a copy
of such mortgage, with recording information, 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 or a
copy of such assignment, with recording information, (which may
be
included in a blanket assignment or assignments), together
with,
except as provided below, all interim recorded assignments of
such
mortgage or a copy of such assignment, with recording
information,
(each such assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be
in
recordable form and sufficient to effect the assignment of and
transfer to the assignee thereof, under the Mortgage to which
the
assignment relates); provided that, if the related Mortgage has
not been returned from the applicable public recording office,
such assignment of the Mortgage may exclude the information to
be
provided by the recording office; provided, further, that such
assignment of Mortgage need not be delivered in the case of a
Mortgage for which the related Mortgaged Property is located in
the
Commonwealth of Puerto Rico;
(iv) the original or copies of each assumption, modification,
written assurance or substitution agreement, if any;
(v) except as provided below, the original or a copy of
lender's title policy or a printout of the electronic

following documents or instruments:

(F) The executed UCC-3 financing statements or other
appropriate UCC financing statements required by state law,
evidencing a complete and unbroken line from the mortgagee to
the
Trustee with evidence of recording thereon (or in a form
suitable
for recordation).
In
addition, in connection with the assignment of any MERS
Mortgage
Loan, each Seller agrees that it will cause, at the Trustee's
expense, the
MERS(R) System to indicate that the Mortgage Loans sold by such
Seller to the
Depositor have been assigned by that Seller to the Trustee in
accordance with
this Agreement (and any Supplemental Transfer Agreement, as
applicable) for
the benefit of the Certificateholders by including (or deleting, in
the case
of Mortgage Loans which are repurchased in accordance with this
Agreement) in
such computer files the information required by the MERS(R) System
to identify
the series of the Certificates issued in connection with such
Mortgage Loans.
Each Seller further agrees that it will not, and will not permit
the Master
Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it will not, alter
the
information referenced in this paragraph with respect to any
Mortgage Loan
sold by such Seller to the Depositor during the term of this
Agreement unless
and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the
terms of
this Agreement.
In the
event that in connection with any Mortgage Loan that is not a
MERS Mortgage Loan the Depositor cannot deliver (a) the original
recorded
Mortgage or a copy of such mortgage, with recording information,
or, (b) all
interim recorded assignments or a copy of such assignments, with
recording
information, or (c) the lender's title policy or a copy of 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 of this Agreement 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
a copy of such mortgage, with recording information, or such
interim
assignment or a copy of such assignments, with recording
information, as the
case may be, with evidence of recording indicated thereon upon
receipt thereof
from the public recording office, or a copy thereof, certified,
if
appropriate, by the relevant recording office, but in no event
shall any such
delivery of the original Mortgage and each such interim assignment
or a copy
thereof, certified, if appropriate, by the relevant recording
office, be made
later than one year following the Closing Date, or, in the case of
clause (v)
above, no later than 120 days following the Closing Date; provided,
however,
in the event the Depositor is unable to deliver by such date each
Mortgage and
each such interim assignment by reason of the fact that any such
documents
have not been returned by the appropriate recording office, or, in
the case of
each such interim
II-3
<PAGE>
assignment, because the related Mortgage has not been returned by
the
appropriate recording office, the Depositor shall deliver such
documents to
the Trustee as promptly as possible upon receipt thereof and, in
any event,
within 720 days following the Closing Date. The Depositor shall
forward or
cause to be forwarded to the Trustee (a) from time to time
additional original
documents evidencing an assumption or modification of a Mortgage
Loan and (b)
any other documents required to be delivered by the Depositor or
the Master
Servicer to the Trustee. In the event that the original Mortgage is
not
delivered and in connection with the payment in full of the related
Mortgage
Loan and the public recording office requires the presentation of a
"lost
instruments affidavit and indemnity" or any equivalent document,
because only
a copy of the Mortgage can be delivered with the instrument of
satisfaction or
reconveyance, the Master Servicer shall execute and deliver or
cause to be
executed and delivered such a document to the public recording
office. In the
case where a public recording office retains the original recorded
Mortgage or
in the case where a Mortgage is lost after recordation in a public
recording
office, Countrywide shall deliver to the Trustee a copy of such
Mortgage
certified by such public recording office to be a true and complete
copy of
the original recorded Mortgage.
As
promptly as practicable subsequent to such transfer and
assignment,
and in any event, within thirty (30) days thereafter, the Trustee
shall (i) as
the assignee thereof, affix the following language to each
assignment of
Mortgage: "CWALT Series 2005-77T1, The Bank of New York, as
trustee", (ii)
cause such assignment to be in proper form for recording in the
appropriate
public office for real property records and (iii) cause to be
delivered for
recording in the appropriate public office for real property
records the
assignments of the Mortgages to the Trustee, except that, with
respect to any
assignments of Mortgage as to which the Trustee has not received
the
information required to prepare such assignment in recordable form,
the
Trustee's obligation to do so and to deliver the same for such
recording shall
be as soon as practicable after receipt of such information and in
any event
within thirty (30) days after receipt thereof and that the Trustee
need not
cause to be recorded any assignment which relates to a Mortgage
Loan (a) the
Mortgaged Property and Mortgage File relating to which are located
in
California or (b) in any other jurisdiction (including Puerto Rico)
under the
laws of which in the opinion of counsel the recordation of such
assignment is
not necessary to protect the Trustee's and the Certificateholders'
interest in
the related Mortgage Loan.
In the
case of Mortgage Loans that have been prepaid in full as of the
Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above
documents to the
Trustee, will deposit in the Certificate Account the portion of
such payment
that is required to be deposited in the Certificate Account
pursuant to
Section 3.05 hereof.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
within
thirty (30) days after the Closing Date with respect to the Initial
Mortgage
Loans, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park
Monaco and Park Sienna) shall either (i) deliver to the Depositor,
or at the
Depositor's direction, to the Trustee or other designee of the
Depositor the
Mortgage File as required pursuant to this Section 2.01 for each
Delay
Delivery Mortgage Loan or (ii) either (A) substitute a Substitute
Mortgage
Loan for the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or (B) repurchase the
Delay Delivery
Mortgage Loan, which substitution or repurchase shall be
accomplished in the
manner and subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03
(treating each
Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan as a Deleted Mortgage Loan for
purposes of such
Section 2.03); provided, however, that if Countrywide fails to
deliver a
Mortgage File for any Delay Delivery
II-4
<PAGE>
Mortgage Loan within the thirty (30) day period provided in the
prior
sentence, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park
Monaco and Park Sienna) shall use its best reasonable efforts to
effect a
substitution, rather than a repurchase of, such Deleted Mortgage
Loan and
provided further that the cure period provided for in Section 2.02
or in
Section 2.03 shall not apply to the initial delivery of the
Mortgage File for
such Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, but rather Countrywide (on its
own behalf
and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall
have five
(5) Business Days to cure such failure to deliver. At the end of
such thirty
(30) day period the Trustee shall send a Delay Delivery
Certification for the
Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered during such thirty (30) day
period in
accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02.
Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement,
within
twenty (20) days after a Supplemental Transfer Date with respect to
all of the
Supplemental Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor on such
Supplemental
Transfer Date, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada,
Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall either (i) deliver to the
Depositor, or at
the Depositor's direction, to the Trustee or other designee of the
Depositor
the Mortgage File as required pursuant to this Section 2.01 for
each Delay
Delivery Mortgage Loan or (ii) (A) substitute a Substitute Mortgage
Loan for
the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan or (B) repurchase the Delay
Delivery Mortgage
Loan, which substitution or repurchase shall be accomplished in the
manner and
subject to the conditions set forth in Section 2.03 (treating each
Delay
Delivery Mortgage Loan as a Deleted Mortgage Loan for purposes of
such Section
2.03); provided, however, that if Countrywide fails to deliver a
Mortgage File
for any Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan within the twenty (20) day
period
provided in the prior sentence, Countrywide (on its own behalf and
on behalf
of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall use its best
reasonable
efforts to effect a substitution, rather than a repurchase of, such
Deleted
Mortgage Loan and provided further that the cure period provided
for in
Section 2.02 or in Section 2.03 shall not apply to the initial
delivery of the
Mortgage File for such Delay Delivery Mortgage Loan, but rather
Countrywide
(on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and
Park Sienna)
shall have five (5) Business Days to cure such failure to deliver.
At the end
of such twenty (20) day period the Trustee shall send a Delay
Delivery
Certification for the Delay Delivery Mortgage Loans delivered
during such
twenty (20) day period in accordance with the provisions of Section
2.02.
(d)
Subject to the execution and delivery of the related
Supplemental
Transfer Agreement as provided in Section 2.01(e) hereof and the
terms and
conditions of this Agreement, each Seller sells, transfers,
assigns, sets over
and otherwise conveys to the Depositor, without recourse, on each

(to the
extent not applied in computing the Cut-off Date Principal Balance
thereof) or
deposited into the Certificate Account by the related Seller, other
than
principal and interest due on such Supplemental Mortgage Loans
prior to the
related Supplemental Cut-off Date.
Immediately upon the conveyance of the Supplemental Mortgage
Loans
referred to in the preceding paragraph, the Depositor sells,
transfers,
assigns, sets over and otherwise conveys to
II-5
<PAGE>
the Trustee for benefit of the Certificateholders, without
recourse, all right
title and interest in all of the Supplemental Mortgage Loans.
Each
Seller has entered into this Agreement in consideration for the
purchase of the Mortgage Loans sold by such Seller to the Depositor
and has
agreed to take the actions specified herein. The Depositor,
concurrently with
the execution and delivery of this Agreement, hereby sells,
transfers, assigns
and otherwise conveys to the Trustee for the use and benefit of
the
Certificateholders, without recourse, all right title and interest
in the
portion of the Trust Fund not otherwise conveyed to the Trust Fund
pursuant to
Sections 2.01(a) or (b).
(e) Upon
five (5) Business Days written notice to the Trustee, the
Depositor, the Master Servicer (if the Master Servicer is not a
Seller) and
the Rating Agencies, on any other Business Day during the
Conveyance Period
designated by Countrywide, Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park
Sienna, if
applicable, the Depositor and the Trustee shall complete, execute
and deliver
a Supplemental Transfer Agreement so long as no Rating Agency has
provided
notice that the execution and delivery of such Supplemental
Transfer Agreement
will result in a reduction or withdrawal of the any ratings
assigned to the
Certificates. After the execution and delivery of such Supplemental
Transfer
Agreement, on the Supplemental Transfer Date, the Trustee shall set
aside in
the Supplemental Loan Account an amount equal to the Aggregate
Supplemental
Purchase Amount.

Loan, the
obligation under Section 2.03(c) of this Agreement of Countrywide,

repurchase or
replace such Supplemental Mortgage Loan shall constitute the sole
remedy
against such Seller respecting such breach available to
Certificateholders,
the Depositor or the Trustee;
(ii)

none of the Sellers or
the Depositor shall be insolvent or shall
be rendered insolvent as a result of such transfer; and

"Initial

documents and
the other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage
Files, and that
it holds or will hold such other assets as are included in the
Trust Fund, in
trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and
future
Certificateholders. The Trustee acknowledges that it will maintain
possession
of the Mortgage Notes in the State of California, unless otherwise
permitted
by the Rating Agencies.
The
Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Closing Date to
the
Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its own behalf
and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) an Initial
Certification
in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-1. Based on its review
and
examination, and only as to the documents identified in such
Initial
Certification, the Trustee acknowledges that such documents appear
regular on
their face and relate to such Initial Mortgage Loan. The Trustee
shall be
under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said
documents,
instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the
same are
genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or
that they
have actually been recorded in the real estate records or that they
are other
than what they purport to be on their face.
On or
about the thirtieth (30th) day after the Closing Date, the
Trustee
shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide
(on its

annexed hereto as Exhibit G-1 (a "Delay Delivery Certification"),

constituting a part of a Mortgage File which does not meet the
requirements of
Section 2.01, the Trustee shall list such as an exception in the
Final
Certification; provided, however that the Trustee shall not make
any
determination as to whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to
transfer all
right, title and interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder
or assignee
thereof, in and to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in
recordable
form or is sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer
to
II-8

the assignee thereof under the mortgage to which the assignment
relates.
Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park
Monaco and
Park Sienna) shall promptly correct or cure such defect within 90
days from
the date it was so notified of such defect and, if Countrywide does
not

either (a)
substitute for the related Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage
Loan, which
substitution shall be accomplished in the manner and subject to the
conditions
set forth in Section 2.03, or (b) purchase such Mortgage Loan from
the Trustee
within 90 days from the date Countrywide (on its own behalf and on
behalf of
Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) was notified of such
defect in
writing at the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan; provided,
however, that
in no event shall such substitution or purchase occur more than 540
days from
the Closing Date, except that if the substitution or purchase of a
Mortgage
Loan pursuant to this provision is required by reason of a delay in
delivery
of any documents by the appropriate recording office, and there is
a dispute
between either the Master Servicer or Countrywide (on its own
behalf and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) and the
Trustee over the
location or status of the recorded document, then such substitution
or
purchase shall occur within 720 days from the Closing Date. The
Trustee shall
deliver written notice to each Rating Agency within 270 days from
the Closing

delivered every
90 days thereafter until the related Mortgage Loan is returned to
the Trustee.
Any such substitution pursuant to (a) above or purchase pursuant to
(b) above
shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the
Opinion of
Counsel required by Section 2.05 hereof, if any, and any
substitution pursuant
to (a) above shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery
to the
Trustee of a Request for Release substantially in the form of
Exhibit N. No

Date in
the month following the month of repurchase and, upon receipt of
such deposit
and certification with respect thereto in the form of Exhibit N
hereto, the
Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to Countrywide (on

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

interest
in any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. If pursuant to the
foregoing
provisions Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park

Mortgage from MERS to Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf
of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) or its designee and shall
cause such
Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS(R) System in
accordance
with MERS' rules and regulations or (ii) cause MERS to designate on
the
MERS(R) System Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada,
Park Monaco and Park Sienna) or its designee as the beneficial
holder of such
Mortgage Loan.

(b) Upon
delivery of the Supplemental Mortgage Loans pursuant to a
Supplemental Transfer Agreement, the Trustee shall acknowledge
receipt of the
documents identified in any Supplemental Certification in the form
annexed
hereto as Exhibit F-2 and declare that it will hold such documents
and the
other documents delivered to it constituting the Mortgage Files,
and that it
will hold such other assets as are included in the Trust Fund, in
trust for
the exclusive use and benefit of all present and future
Certificateholders.
The Trustee acknowledges that it will maintain possession of the
Mortgage
Notes in the State of California, unless otherwise permitted by the
Rating
Agencies.
The
Trustee agrees to execute and deliver on the Supplemental
Transfer
Date to the Depositor, the Master Servicer and Countrywide (on its
own behalf
and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) a
Supplemental
Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit F-2. Based on
its review
and examination, and only as to the documents identified in such
Supplemental
Certification, the Trustee shall acknowledge that such documents
appear
regular on their face and relate to such Supplemental Mortgage
Loan. The
Trustee shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or
examine
said documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to
determine that
the same are genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the
represented purpose
or that they have actually been recorded in the real estate records
or that
they are other than what they purport to be on their face.
On or
about the twentieth (20th) day after the Supplemental Transfer
Date, the Trustee shall deliver to the Depositor, the Master
Servicer and
Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park
Monaco and
Park Sienna) a Delay Delivery Certification with respect to the
Supplemental
Mortgage Loans in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit G-2, with any
applicable
exceptions noted thereon.
Not later

Countrywide
(on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and
Park Sienna)
a Final Certification with respect to the Supplemental Mortgage
Loans in the
form annexed hereto as Exhibit H-2, with any applicable exceptions
noted
thereon.
(c) If, in
the course of such review of the Mortgage Files relating to
the Supplemental Mortgage Loans, the Trustee finds any document
constituting a
part of a Mortgage File which does not meet the requirements of
Section 2.01,
the Trustee shall list such as an exception in the Final
Certification;
provided, however that the Trustee shall not make any determination
as to
whether (i) any endorsement is sufficient to transfer all right,
title and
interest of the party so endorsing, as noteholder or assignee
thereof, in and
to that Mortgage Note or (ii) any assignment is in recordable form
or is
sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee
thereof
under the mortgage to which the assignment relates. Countrywide (on
its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna)
shall
promptly correct or cure such defect within 90 days from the date
it was so
notified of such defect and, if Countrywide does not correct or
cure such
defect within such period, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on
behalf of
Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall either (a)
substitute for the
related Mortgage Loan a Substitute Mortgage Loan, which
substitution shall be
accomplished in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth
in Section
2.03, or (b) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trustee within 90
days from
the date Countrywide (on its own behalf or on behalf
II-10
<PAGE>
of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) was notified of such
defect in
writing at the Purchase Price of such Mortgage Loan; provided,
however, that
in no event shall such substitution or purchase occur more than 540
days from
the Closing Date, except that if the substitution or purchase of a
Mortgage
Loan pursuant to this provision is required by reason of a delay in
delivery
of any documents by the appropriate recording office, and there is
a dispute
between either the Master Servicer or Countrywide (on its own
behalf and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) and the
Trustee over the
location or status of the recorded document, then such substitution
or
purchase shall occur within 720 days from the Closing Date. The
Trustee shall
deliver written notice to each Rating Agency within 270 days from
the Closing
Date indicating each Mortgage Loan (a) which has not been returned
by the
appropriate recording office or (b) as to which there is a dispute
as to
location or status of such Mortgage Loan. Such notice shall be
delivered every
90 days thereafter until the related Mortgage Loan is returned to
the Trustee.
Any such substitution pursuant to (a) above or purchase pursuant to
(b) above
shall not be effected prior to the delivery to the Trustee of the
Opinion of
Counsel required by Section 2.05 hereof, if any, and any
substitution pursuant
to (a) above shall not be effected prior to the additional delivery
to the
Trustee of a Request for Release substantially in the form of
Exhibit N. No
substitution is permitted to be made in any calendar month after
the
Determination Date for such month. The Purchase Price for any such
Mortgage
Loan shall be deposited by Countrywide (on its own behalf and on
behalf of
Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) in the Certificate
Account on or
prior to the Distribution Account Deposit Date for the Distribution
Date in
the month following the month of repurchase and, upon receipt of
such deposit
and certification with respect thereto in the form of Exhibit N
hereto, the
Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to Countrywide (on
its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna)
and shall
execute and deliver at Countrywide's (on its own behalf and on
behalf of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) request such instruments of
transfer or
assignment prepared by Countrywide, in each case without recourse,
as shall be
necessary to vest in Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf
of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) , or a designee, the
Trustee's interest
in any Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto. If pursuant to the
foregoing
provisions Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park
Granada, Park
Monaco and Park Sienna) repurchases a Supplemental Mortgage Loan
that is a
MERS Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall either (i) cause MERS
to execute
and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to
transfer the
Mortgage from MERS to Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf
of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) and shall cause such Mortgage
to be
removed from registration on the MERS(R) System in accordance with
MERS' rules
and regulations or (ii) cause MERS to designate on the MERS(R)
System
Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park
Monaco and
Park Sienna) or its designee as the beneficial holder of such
Mortgage Loan.
(d) The
Trustee shall retain possession and custody of each Mortgage
File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions set
forth
herein. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Trustee,
upon the
execution or receipt thereof, the originals of such other documents
or
instruments constituting the Mortgage File as come into the
possession of the
Master Servicer from time to time.
(e) It is
understood and agreed that the respective obligations of each
Seller to substitute for or to purchase any Mortgage Loan sold to
the
Depositor by it which does not meet the
II-11
<PAGE>
requirements of Section 2.01 above shall constitute the sole remedy
respecting
such defect available to the Trustee, the Depositor and any
Certificateholder
against that Seller.

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

(b) The
Master Servicer hereby makes the representations and warranties
set forth in Schedule IV hereto, and by this reference incorporated
herein to
the Depositor and the Trustee as of the Closing Date.
(c) Upon
discovery by any of the parties hereto of a breach of a
representation or warranty with respect to a Mortgage Loan made
pursuant to
Section 2.03(a) or a breach of a representation or warranty with
respect to a
Supplemental Mortgage Loan under Section 2.01(e)(i) that materially
and
adversely affects the interests of the Certificateholders in that
Mortgage
Loan, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt notice
thereof to
the other parties. Each Seller hereby covenants that within 90 days
of the
earlier of its discovery or its receipt of written notice from any
party of a
breach of any representation or warranty with respect to a Mortgage
Loan sold
by it pursuant to Section 2.03(a) and with respect to a breach of
a
representation and warranty with respect to a Supplemental Mortgage
Loan sold
by it under Section 2.01(e)(i) which materially and adversely
affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in that Mortgage Loan, it shall
cure such
breach in all material respects, and if such breach is not so
cured, shall,
(i) if such 90-day period expires prior to the second anniversary
of the
Closing Date, remove such Mortgage Loan (a "Deleted Mortgage Loan")
from the
Trust Fund and substitute in its place a Substitute Mortgage Loan,
in the
manner and subject to the conditions set forth in this Section; or
(ii)
repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans from the
Trustee at
the Purchase Price in the manner set forth below; provided,
however, that any
such substitution pursuant to (i) above shall not be effected prior
to the
delivery to the Trustee of the Opinion of Counsel required by
Section 2.05
hereof, if any, and any such substitution pursuant to (i) above
shall not be
effected prior to the additional delivery to the Trustee of a
Request for
Release substantially in the form of Exhibit N and the Mortgage
File for any
such Substitute Mortgage Loan. The Seller repurchasing a Mortgage
Loan
pursuant to this Section 2.03(c) shall promptly reimburse the
Master Servicer
and the Trustee for any expenses reasonably incurred by the Master
Servicer or
the Trustee in respect of enforcing the remedies for such breach.
With respect
to the representations and warranties described in this Section
which are made
to the best of a Seller's knowledge, if it is discovered by either
the
Depositor, a Seller or the Trustee that the substance of such
representation
and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy materially and
adversely
affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interests of
the
Certificateholders therein, notwithstanding that Seller's lack of
knowledge
with respect to the substance of such representation or warranty,
such
inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable
representation or
warranty. Any breach of a representation set forth in clauses (44),
(45),
(46), (47), (48), (49), (50), (51), (52), (53), (54) (55) or (56)
of Schedule
III-A with respect to a Mortgage Loan in any Loan Group shall be
deemed to
materially and adversely affect the Certificateholders.
With
respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, sold to the
Depositor by a Seller, Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf
of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) shall deliver to the Trustee
for the
benefit of the Certificateholders the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage,
the related
assignment of the Mortgage, and such other documents and agreements
as are
required by Section 2.01, with the Mortgage Note endorsed and the
Mortgage
assigned as required by Section 2.01. No substitution is permitted
to be made
in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month.
Scheduled
Payments due with respect to Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month
of
substitution shall not be part of the Trust Fund and will be
retained by the
related Seller on the next succeeding Distribution Date. For the
month of
II-13
<PAGE>
substitution, distributions to Certificateholders will include the
monthly
payment due on any Deleted Mortgage Loan for such month and
thereafter that
Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect
of such
Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage
Loan
Schedule for the benefit of the Certificateholders to reflect the
removal of
such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the Substitute
Mortgage
Loan or Loans and the Master Servicer shall deliver the amended
Mortgage Loan
Schedule to the Trustee. Upon such substitution, the Substitute
Mortgage Loan
or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all
respects, and
the related Seller shall be deemed to have made with respect to
such
Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution,
the
representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 2.03(a)
with respect
to such Mortgage Loan. Upon any such substitution and the deposit
to the
Certificate Account of the amount required to be deposited therein
in
connection with such substitution as described in the following
paragraph, the
Trustee shall release the Mortgage File held for the benefit of
the
Certificateholders relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan to the
related
Seller and shall execute and deliver at such Seller's direction
such
instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by Countrywide (on
its own
behalf and on behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna),
in each
case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest title in that
Seller, or
its designee, the Trustee's interest in any Deleted Mortgage Loan
substituted
for pursuant to this Section 2.03.
For any
month in which a Seller substitutes one or more Substitute
Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer
will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal
balance of
all Substitute Mortgage Loans sold to the Depositor by that Seller
as of the
date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal
Balance of
all Deleted Mortgage Loans repurchased by that Seller (after
application of
the scheduled principal portion of the monthly payments due in the
month of
substitution). The amount of such shortage (the "Substitution
Adjustment
Amount") plus an amount equal to the aggregate of any unreimbursed
Advances
with respect to such Deleted Mortgage Loans shall be deposited in
the
Certificate Account by Countrywide (on its own behalf and on behalf
of Park
Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) on or before the Distribution
Account
Deposit Date for the Distribution Date in the month succeeding the
calendar
month during which the related Mortgage Loan became required to be
purchased
or replaced hereunder.
In the
event that a Seller shall have repurchased a Mortgage Loan, the
Purchase Price therefor shall be deposited in the Certificate
Account pursuant
to Section 3.05 on or before the Distribution Account Deposit Date
for the
Distribution Date in the month following the month during which
that Seller
became obligated hereunder to repurchase or replace such Mortgage
Loan and
upon such deposit of the Purchase Price, the delivery of the
Opinion of
Counsel required by Section 2.05 and receipt of a Request for
Release in the
form of Exhibit N hereto, the Trustee shall release the related
Mortgage File
held for the benefit of the Certificateholders to such Person, and
the Trustee
shall execute and deliver at such Person's direction such
instruments of
transfer or assignment prepared by such Person, in each case
without recourse,
as shall be necessary to transfer title from the Trustee. It is
understood and
agreed that the obligation under this Agreement of any Person to
cure,
repurchase or replace any Mortgage Loan as to which a breach has
occurred and
is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy against such Persons
respecting
such breach available to Certificateholders, the Depositor or the
Trustee on
their behalf.
II-14
<PAGE>
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 Initial 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
Initial Mortgage Loans to it by each Seller, the Depositor had good
title to
the Initial Mortgage Loans and the Mortgage Notes were subject to
no offsets,
defenses or counterclaims.
The
Depositor hereby assigns, transfers and conveys to the Trustee
all
of its rights with respect to the Mortgage Loans including,
without
limitation, the representations and warranties of each Seller made
pursuant to
Section 2.03(a) hereof, together with all rights of the Depositor
to require a
Seller to cure any breach thereof or to repurchase or substitute
for any
affected Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Agreement.
It is
understood and agreed that the representations and warranties
set
forth in this Section 2.04 shall survive delivery of the Mortgage
Files to the
Trustee. Upon discovery by the Depositor or the Trustee of a breach
of any of
the foregoing representations and warranties set forth in this
Section 2.04
(referred to herein as a "breach"), which breach materially and
adversely
affects the interest of the Certificateholders, the party
discovering such
breach shall give prompt written notice to the others and to each
Rating
Agency.
SECTION
2.05. Delivery of
Opinion of Counsel in Connection with
Substitutions.
(a)
Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, no
substitution pursuant to Section 2.02 or Section 2.03 shall be made
more than
90 days after the Closing Date unless Countrywide delivers to the
Trustee an
Opinion of Counsel, which Opinion of Counsel shall not be at the
expense of
either the Trustee or the Trust Fund, addressed to the Trustee, to
the effect
that such substitution will not (i) result in the imposition of the
tax on
"prohibited transactions" on the Trust Fund or contributions after
the Startup
Date, as defined in Sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code,
respectively,
or (ii) cause each REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a
REMIC at
any time that any Certificates are outstanding.
(b) Upon
discovery by the Depositor, a Seller, the Master Servicer, or
the Trustee that any Mortgage Loan does not constitute a "qualified
mortgage"
within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party
discovering
such fact shall promptly (and in any event within five (5) Business
Days of
discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties. In
connection
therewith, the Trustee shall require Countrywide (on its own behalf
and on
behalf of Park Granada, Park Monaco and Park Sienna) at its option,
to either
(i) substitute, if the conditions in Section 2.03(c) with respect
to
substitutions are satisfied, a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the
affected
Mortgage Loan, or (ii) repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan within
90 days of
such discovery in the same manner as it would a Mortgage Loan for a
breach of
representation or warranty made pursuant to Section 2.03. The
Trustee shall
reconvey to Countrywide the Mortgage Loan to be released pursuant
hereto in
the same manner, and on the
II-15
<PAGE>
same terms and conditions, 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 such 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 and to perform the duties set
forth in this
Agreement, to the end that the interests of the Holders of the
Certificates
may be adequately and effectively protected.
SECTION
2.07. REMIC
Matters.
The
Preliminary Statement sets forth the designations and "latest
possible maturity date" for federal income tax purposes of all
interests
created hereby. The "Startup Day" for purposes of the REMIC
Provisions shall
be the Closing Date. The "tax matters person" with respect to each
REMIC
hereunder shall be the Trustee and the Trustee shall hold the Tax
Matters
Person Certificate. Each REMIC's fiscal year shall be the calendar
year.
SECTION
2.08. Covenants of the
Master Servicer.
The Master
Servicer hereby covenants to the Depositor and the Trustee as
follows:
(a)
the Master
Servicer shall comply in the performance of its
obligations under this Agreement with all reasonable rules and
requirements of
the insurer under each Required Insurance Policy; and
(b)
no written
information, certificate of an officer, statement
furnished in writing or written report delivered to the Depositor,
any
affiliate of the Depositor or the Trustee and prepared by the
Master Servicer
pursuant to this Agreement will contain any untrue statement of a
material
fact or omit to state a material fact necessary to make such
information,
certificate, statement or report not misleading.

ARTICLE III
ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING
OF MORTGAGE LOANS
SECTION
3.01. Master Servicer
to Service Mortgage Loans.
For and on
behalf of the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer shall
service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the
terms of this
Agreement and customary and usual standards of practice of prudent
mortgage
loan servicers. In connection with such servicing and
administration, the
Master Servicer shall have full power and authority, acting alone
and/or
through Subservicers as provided in Section 3.02 hereof, subject to
the terms
hereof (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the
Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and
documents,
(ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and
assumptions of the
Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages (but only in the manner
provided in this
Agreement), (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and other
Liquidation
Proceeds (which for the purpose of this Section includes any
Subsequent
Recoveries), and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion
of the
ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan;
provided that
the Master Servicer shall not take any action that is inconsistent
with or
prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund or the
Certificateholders in any
Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the Depositor, the
Trustee and
the Certificateholders under this Agreement. The Master Servicer
shall
represent and protect the interests of the Trust Fund in the same
manner as it
protects its own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio
in any
claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan, and
shall not make
or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any Mortgage
Loan which
would cause any REMIC created hereunder to fail to qualify as a
REMIC or
result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or
Section 860G(d)
of the Code. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the
Master
Servicer, in its own name or in the name of the Depositor and the
Trustee, is
hereby authorized and empowered by the Depositor and the Trustee,
when the
Master Servicer believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment,
to execute
and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, the Depositor, the
Certificateholders
or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or
cancellation, or of
partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable
instruments,
with respect to the Mortgage Loans, and with respect to the
Mortgaged
Properties held for the benefit of the Certificateholders. The
Master Servicer
shall prepare and deliver to the Depositor and/or the Trustee such
documents
requiring execution and delivery by either or both of them as are
necessary or
appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to service and administer
the
Mortgage Loans to the extent that the Master Servicer is not
permitted to
execute and deliver such documents pursuant to the preceding
sentence. Upon
receipt of such documents, the Depositor and/or the Trustee shall
execute such
documents and deliver them to the Master Servicer. The Master
Servicer further
is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, on behalf of the
Certificateholders and the Trustee, in its own name or in the name
of the
Subservicer, when the Master Servicer or the Subservicer, as the
case may be,
believes it appropriate in its best judgment to register any
Mortgage Loan on
the MERS(R) System, or cause the removal from the registration of
any Mortgage
Loan on the MERS(R) System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of
the Trustee
and the Certificateholders or any of them, any and all instruments
of
assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such
assignment or
re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee
for the
Trustee and its successors and assigns.
III-1
<PAGE>
In
accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the
Master
Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary
for the
purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the
Mortgaged
Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first
instance from
related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.06,
and further
as provided in Section 3.08. The costs incurred by the Master
Servicer, if
any, in effecting the timely payments of taxes and assessments on
the
Mortgaged Properties and related insurance premiums shall not, for
the purpose
of calculating monthly distributions to the Certificateholders, be
added to
the Stated Principal Balances of the related Mortgage Loans,
notwithstanding
that the terms of such Mortgage Loans so permit.
SECTION
3.02. Subservicing;
Enforcement of the Obligations of
Subservicers.
(a) The
Master Servicer may arrange for the subservicing of any
Mortgage
Loan by a Subservicer pursuant to a subservicing agreement;
provided, however,
that such subservicing arrangement and the terms of the related
subservicing
agreement must provide for the servicing of such Mortgage Loans in
a manner
consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder.
Unless the
context otherwise requires, references in this Agreement to actions
taken or
to be taken by the Master Servicer in servicing the Mortgage Loans
include
actions taken or to be taken by a Subservicer on behalf of the
Master
Servicer. Notwithstanding the provisions of any subservicing
agreement, any of
the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or
arrangements
between the Master Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to
actions taken
through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Master Servicer shall
remain obligated
and liable to the Depositor, the Trustee and the Certificateholders
for the
servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans in accordance
with the
provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation
or
liability by virtue of such subservicing agreements or arrangements
or by
virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same
extent and
under the same terms and conditions as if the Master Servicer alone
were
servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans. All actions of
each
Subservicer performed pursuant to the related subservicing
agreement shall be
performed as an agent of the Master Servicer with the same force
and effect as
if performed directly by the Master Servicer.
(b) For
purposes of this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be deemed
to have received any collections, recoveries or payments with
respect to the
Mortgage Loans that are received by a Subservicer regardless of
whether such
payments are remitted by the Subservicer to the Master
Servicer.
SECTION
3.03. Rights of the
Depositor and the Trustee in Respect of
the Master Servicer.
The
Depositor may, but is not obligated to, enforce the obligations
of
the Master Servicer hereunder and may, but is not obligated to,
perform, or
cause a designee to perform, any defaulted obligation of the Master
Servicer
hereunder and in connection with any such defaulted obligation to
exercise the
related rights of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the
Master
Servicer shall not be relieved of any of its obligations hereunder
by virtue
of such performance by the Depositor or its designee. Neither the
Trustee nor
the Depositor shall have any responsibility or liability for any
action or
failure to act by the Master Servicer nor shall the
III-2
<PAGE>
Trustee or the Depositor be obligated to supervise the performance
of the
Master Servicer hereunder or otherwise.
SECTION
3.04. Trustee to Act
as Master Servicer.
In the
event that the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer
be
the Master Servicer hereunder (including by reason of an Event of
Default),
the Trustee or its successor shall thereupon assume all of the
rights and
obligations of the Master Servicer hereunder arising thereafter
(except that
the Trustee shall not be (i) liable for losses of the Master
Servicer pursuant
to Section 3.09 hereof or any acts or omissions of the predecessor
Master
Servicer hereunder), (ii) obligated to make Advances if it is
prohibited from
doing so by applicable law, (iii) obligated to effectuate
repurchases or
substitutions of Mortgage Loans hereunder including, but not
limited to,
repurchases or substitutions of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section
2.02 or
2.03 hereof, (iv) responsible for expenses of the Master Servicer
pursuant to
Section 2.03 or (v) deemed to have made any representations and
warranties of
the Master Servicer hereunder). Any such assumption shall be
subject to
Section 7.02 hereof. If the Master Servicer shall for any reason no
longer be
the Master Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default),
the Trustee
or its successor shall succeed to any rights and obligations of the
Master
Servicer under each subservicing agreement.
The Master
Servicer shall, upon request of the Trustee, but at the
expense of the Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all
documents
and records relating to each subservicing agreement or substitute
subservicing
agreement and the Mortgage Loans then being serviced thereunder and
an
accounting of amounts collected or held by it and otherwise use its
best
efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the
substitute
subservicing agreement to the assuming party.
SECTION
3.05. Collection of
Mortgage Loan Payments; Certificate
Account; Distribution Account; Supplemental Loan Account;
Capitalized
Interest Account.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall make reasonable efforts in accordance
with
the customary and usual standards of practice of prudent mortgage
servicers to
collect all payments called for under the terms and provisions of
the Mortgage
Loans to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this
Agreement
and the terms and provisions of any related Required Insurance
Policy.
Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may in its
discretion (i)
waive any late payment charge or any prepayment charge or penalty
interest in
connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) extend
the due
dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period not greater
than 180
days; provided, however, that the Master Servicer cannot extend the
maturity
of any such Mortgage Loan past the date on which the final payment
is due on
the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date. In the
event of any
such arrangement, the Master Servicer shall make Advances on the
related
Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of Section 4.01
during the
scheduled period in accordance with the amortization schedule of
such Mortgage
Loan without modification thereof by reason of such arrangements.
The Master
Servicer shall not be required to institute or join in litigation
with respect
to collection of any payment (whether under a Mortgage, Mortgage
Note or
otherwise or against any public or governmental authority with
respect to a
taking or condemnation) if it
III-3
<PAGE>
reasonably believes that enforcing the provision of the Mortgage or
other
instrument pursuant to which such payment is required is prohibited
by
applicable law.
(b) The
Master Servicer shall establish and maintain a Certificate
Account into which the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be
deposited
no later than two Business Days after receipt (or, if the current
long-term
credit rating of Countrywide is reduced below "A-" by S&P or
Fitch, or "A3" by
Moody's, the Master Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited
on a daily
basis within one Business Day of receipt), except as otherwise
specifically
provided herein, the following payments and collections remitted
by
Subservicers or received by it in respect of Mortgage Loans
subsequent to the
Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest due
on the
Mortgage Loans on or before the Cut-off Date) and the following
amounts
required to be deposited hereunder:
(i) all payments on account of principal on the Mortgage Loans,
including
Principal Prepayments;
(ii) all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans,
net of the
Master Servicing Fee, Prepayment Interest Excess and any
lender-paid mortgage insurance premiums;
(iii) all Insurance Proceeds, Subsequent Recoveries and
Liquidation Proceeds, other than proceeds to be applied to the
restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to
the
Mortgagor
in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing
procedures;
(iv) any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
or
the
Depositor pursuant to Section 3.05(e) in connection with any
losses
on
Permitted Investments for which it is responsible;
(v) any amounts required to be deposited by the Master Servicer
pursuant
to Section 3.09(c) and in respect of net monthly rental income
from REO
Property pursuant to Section 3.11 hereof;
(vi) all Substitution Adjustment Amounts;
(vii) all Advances made by the Master Servicer pursuant to
Section
4.01;
and
(viii) any other amounts required to be deposited hereunder.
In
addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is subject to
a
buydown agreement, on each Due Date for such Mortgage Loan, in
addition to the
monthly payment remitted by the Mortgagor, the Master Servicer
shall cause
funds to be deposited into the Certificate Account in an amount
required to
cause an amount of interest to be paid with respect to such
Mortgage Loan
equal to the amount of interest that has accrued on such Mortgage
Loan from
the preceding Due Date at the Mortgage Rate net of the Master
Servicing Fee.
The
foregoing requirements for remittance by the Master Servicer
shall
be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting
the
generality of the foregoing, payments in
III-4
<PAGE>
the nature of prepayment penalties, late payment charges or
assumption fees,
if collected, need not be remitted by the Master Servicer. In the
event that
the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not required to be
remitted, it may
at any time withdraw or direct the institution maintaining the
Certificate
Account to withdraw such amount from the Certificate Account, any
provision
herein to the contrary notwithstanding. Such withdrawal or
direction may be
accomplished by delivering written notice thereof to the Trustee or
such other
institution maintaining the Certificate Account which describes the
amounts
deposited in error in the Certificate Account. The Master Servicer
shall
maintain adequate records with respect to all withdrawals made
pursuant to
this Section. All funds deposited in the Certificate Account shall
be held in
trust for the Certificateholders until withdrawn in accordance with
Section
3.08.
(c)
[Reserved].
(d) The
Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Distribution Account. The Trustee shall,
promptly upon
receipt, deposit in the Distribution Account and retain therein the
following:
(i) the aggregate amount remitted by the Master Servicer to the
Trustee
pursuant to Section 3.08(a)(ix);
(ii) any amount deposited by the Master Servicer or the
Depositor
pursuant
to Section 3.05(e) in connection with any losses on Permitted
Investments for which it is responsible; and
(iii) any other amounts deposited hereunder which are required
to
be
deposited in the Distribution Account.
In the
event that the Master Servicer shall remit any amount not
required to be remitted, it may at any time direct the Trustee to
withdraw
such amount from the Distribution Account, any provision herein to
the
contrary notwithstanding. Such direction may be accomplished by
delivering an
Officer's Certificate to the Trustee which describes the amounts
deposited in
error in the Distribution Account. All funds deposited in the
Distribution
Account shall be held by the Trustee in trust for the
Certificateholders until
disbursed in accordance with this Agreement or withdrawn in
accordance with
Section 3.08. In no event shall the Trustee incur liability for
withdrawals
from the Distribution Account at the direction of the Master
Servicer.
(e) Each
institution at which the Certificate Account, the Supplemental
Loan Account, the Capitalized Interest Account or the Distribution
Account is
maintained shall invest the funds therein as directed in writing by
the Master
Servicer in Permitted Investments, which shall mature not later
than (i) in
the case of the Certificate Account, the Supplemental Loan Account
or the
Capitalized Interest Account, the second Business Day next
preceding the
related Distribution Account Deposit Date (except that if such
Permitted
Investment is an obligation of the institution that maintains such
account,
then such Permitted Investment shall mature not later than the
Business Day
next preceding such Distribution Account Deposit Date) and (ii) in
the case of
the Distribution Account, the Business Day next preceding the
Distribution
Date (except that if such Permitted Investment is an obligation of
the
institution that maintains such fund or account, then such
Permitted
Investment shall mature not later than such Distribution Date)
and,
III-5
<PAGE>
in each case, shall not be sold or disposed of prior to its
maturity. Each
institution at which the Supplemental Loan Account is maintained
shall invest
the funds therein in Permitted Investments that satisfy the
requirements of
category (vi) of the definition thereof, which do not represent a
direct
issuance from the respective obligor and which mature and shall be
reinvested
daily. All such Permitted Investments shall be made in the name of
the
Trustee, for the benefit of the Certificateholders. All income and
gain net of
any losses realized from any such investment of funds on deposit in
the
Certificate Account, or the Distribution Account shall be for the
benefit of
the Master Servicer as servicing compensation and shall be remitted
to it
monthly as provided herein. The amount of any realized losses in
the
Certificate Account or the Distribution Account incurred in any
such account
in respect of any such investments shall promptly be deposited by
the Master
Servicer in the Certificate Account or paid to the Trustee for
deposit into
the Distribution Account, as applicable. The amount of any losses
in the
Supplemental Loan Account or the Capitalized Interest Account
incurred in
respect of any such investments shall promptly be deposited by the
Depositor
in the Supplemental Loan Account or the Capitalized Interest
Account, as
applicable. All income or gain (net of any losses) realized from
any such
investment of funds on deposit in the Capitalized Interest Account
shall be
credited to the Capitalized Interest Account. The Trustee in its
fiduciary
capacity shall not be liable for the amount of any loss incurred in
respect of
any investment or lack of investment of funds held in the
Certificate Account,
the Capitalized Interest Account, the Supplemental Loan Account or
the
Distribution Account and made in accordance with this Section
3.05.
(f) The
Master Servicer shall give notice to the Trustee, each Seller,
each Rating Agency and the Depositor of any proposed change of the
location of
the Certificate Account prior to any change thereof. The Trustee
shall give
notice to the Master Servicer, each Seller, each Rating Agency and
the
Depositor of any proposed change of the location of the
Distribution Account,
the Capitalized Interest Account or the Supplemental Loan Account
prior to any
change thereof.
(g) The
Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Supplemental Loan Account. On the Closing
Date
Countrywide shall remit the Supplemental Amount to the Trustee for
deposit in
the Supplemental Loan Account. On each Supplemental Transfer Date,
upon
satisfaction of the conditions for such Supplemental Transfer Date
set forth
in Section 2.01(e), with respect to the related Supplemental
Transfer
Agreement, the Trustee shall pay to each Seller selling
Supplemental Mortgage
Loans to the Depositor on such Supplemental Transfer Date the
portion of the
Aggregate Supplemental Transfer Amount held in escrow pursuant to
Section
2.01(e) as payment of the purchase price for the Supplemental
Mortgage Loans
sold by such Seller. If at any time the Depositor becomes aware
that the
Cut-off Date Stated Principal Balance of Supplemental Mortgage
Loans reflected
on any Supplemental Transfer Agreement exceeds the actual Cut-off
Date Stated
Principal Balance of the relevant Supplemental Mortgage Loans, the
Depositor
may so notify the Trustee and the Trustee shall redeposit into
the
Supplemental Loan Account the excess reported to it by the
Depositor.
If any
funds remain in the Supplemental Loan Account at the end of the
Conveyance Period, to the extent that they represent earnings on
the amounts
originally deposited into the Supplemental Loan Account, the
Trustee shall
distribute them to the order of the Depositor. The remaining funds
shall be
transferred to the Distribution Account to be included as part of
principal
distributions to the Class PO Certificates, to the extent of the
Remaining PO
III-6
<PAGE>
Supplemental Loan Amount and to the other Classes of Senior
Certificates, to
the extent of the Remaining Non-PO Supplemental Loan Amount, as
applicable.
(h) The
Trustee shall establish and maintain, on behalf of the
Certificateholders, the Capitalized Interest Account. On the
Closing Date,
Countrywide shall remit the aggregate Capitalized Interest
Requirement to the
Trustee for deposit in the Capitalized Interest Account. On each
Distribution
Account Deposit Date related to a Conveyance Period Distribution
Date, upon
satisfaction of the conditions for such Supplemental Transfer Date
set forth
in Section 2.01(e), with respect to the related Supplemental
Transfer
Agreement, the Trustee shall transfer from the Capitalized Interest
Account to
the Distribution Account an amount equal to the Capitalized
Interest
Requirement (which, to the extent required, may include investment
earnings on
amounts on deposit therein) with respect to the amount remaining in
the
Supplemental Loan Account for the related Distribution Date as
identified by
Countrywide in the Supplemental Transfer Agreement.
If any
funds remain in the Capitalized Interest Account at the end of
the Conveyance Period, the Trustee shall make the transfer
described in the
preceding paragraph if necessary for the remaining Conveyance
Period
Distribution Date and the Trustee shall distribute any remaining
funds in the
Capitalized Interest Account to the order of the Depositor.
SECTION
3.06. Collection of
Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items;
Escrow Accounts.
(a) To the
extent required by the related Mortgage Note and not
violative of current law, the Master Servicer shall establish and
maintain one
or more accounts (each, an "Escrow Account") and deposit and retain
therein
all collections from the Mortgagors (or advances by the Master
Servicer) for
the payment of taxes, assessments, hazard insurance premiums or
comparable
items for the account of the Mortgagors. Nothing herein shall
require the
Master Servicer to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow
Account in
violation of applicable law.
(b)
Withdrawals of amounts so collected from the Escrow Accounts may
be
made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, hazard
insurance
premiums, condominium or PUD association dues, or comparable items,
to
reimburse the Master Servicer out of related collections for any
payments made
pursuant to Sections 3.01 hereof (with respect to taxes and
assessments and
insurance premiums) and 3.09 hereof (with respect to hazard
insurance), to
refund to any Mortgagors any sums determined to be overages, to pay
interest,
if required by law or the terms of the related Mortgage or Mortgage
Note, to
Mortgagors on balances in the Escrow Account or to clear and
terminate the
Escrow Account at the termination of this Agreement in accordance
with Section
9.01 hereof. The Escrow Accounts shall not be a part of the Trust
Fund.
(c) The
Master Servicer shall advance any payments referred to in
Section 3.06(a) that are not timely paid by the Mortgagors on the
date when
the tax, premium or other cost for which such payment is intended
is due, but
the Master Servicer shall be required so to advance only to the
extent that
such advances, in the good faith judgment of the Master Servicer,
will be
recoverable by the Master Servicer out of Insurance Proceeds,
Liquidation
Proceeds or otherwise.

SECTION
3.07. Access to
Certain Documentation and Information
Regarding the Mortgage Loans.
The Master
Servicer shall afford each Seller, the Depositor and the
Trustee reasonable access to all records and documentation
regarding the
Mortgage Loans and all accounts, insurance information and other
matters
relating to this Agreement, such access being afforded without
charge, but
only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at
the office
designated by the Master Servicer.
Upon
reasonable advance notice in writing, the Master Servicer will
provide to each Certificateholder and/or Certificate Owner which is
a savings
and loan association, bank or insurance company certain reports and
reasonable
access to information and documentation regarding the Mortgage
Loans
sufficient to permit such Certificateholder and/or Certificate
Owner to comply
with applicable regulations of the OTS or other regulatory
authorities with
respect to investment in the Certificates; provided that the Master
Servicer
shall be entitled to be reimbursed by each such Certificateholder
and/or
Certificate Owner for actual expenses incurred by the Master
Servicer in
providing such reports and access.
SECTION
3.08. Permitted

Master Servicer may from time to time make withdrawals from the
Certificate Account with respect to the Mortgage Loans in a Loan
Group for the

The Master
Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a
Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying

deliver to the
Trustee an Officer's Certificate of a Servicing Officer indicating

SECTION
3.09. Maintenance of
Hazard Insurance; Maintenance of
Primary Insurance Policies.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall cause to be maintained, for each Mortgage
Loan, hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount that is
at least
equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the
improvements
securing such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the greater of (y) the
outstanding
principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (z) an amount such that
the
proceeds of such policy shall be sufficient to prevent the
Mortgagor and/or
the mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. Each such policy of
standard hazard
insurance shall contain, or have an accompanying endorsement that
contains, a
standard mortgagee clause. Any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer under
any such policies (other than the amounts to be applied to the
restoration or
repair of the related Mortgaged Property or amounts released to the
Mortgagor
in accordance with the Master Servicer's normal servicing
procedures) shall be
deposited in the Certificate Account. Any cost incurred by the
Master Servicer
in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of
calculating
monthly distributions to the Certificateholders or remittances to
the Trustee
for their benefit, be added to the principal balance of the
Mortgage Loan,
notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such
costs
shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer out of late payments by
the
related Mortgagor or out of the proceeds of liquidation of the
Mortgage Loan
or Subsequent Recoveries to the extent permitted by Section 3.08
hereof. It is
understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional
insurance is to
be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in
respect of
a Mortgage other than pursuant to such applicable laws and
regulations as
shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional
insurance.
If the Mortgaged Property is located at the time of origination of
the
Mortgage Loan in a federally designated special flood hazard area
and such
area is participating in the national flood insurance program, the
Master
Servicer shall cause flood insurance to be maintained with respect
to such
Mortgage Loan. Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to
the least
of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage
Loan, (ii)
the replacement value of the improvements which are part of such
Mortgaged
Property, and (iii) the maximum amount of such insurance available
for the
related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance
program.
(b) The
Master Servicer shall not take any action which would result in
non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any
loss which,
but for the actions of the Master Servicer, would have been
covered
thereunder. The Master Servicer shall not cancel or refuse to renew
any such
Primary Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the
initial issuance
of the Certificates and is required to be kept in force hereunder
unless the
replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such canceled or
non-renewed policy
is maintained with a Qualified Insurer.
Except with respect to
any Lender PMI Mortgage Loans, the Master
Servicer shall not be required to maintain any Primary Insurance
Policy (i)
with respect to any Mortgage Loan with a
III-10
<PAGE>
Loan-to-Value Ratio less than or equal to 80% as of any date of
determination
or, based on a new appraisal, the principal balance of such
Mortgage Loan
represents 80% or less of the new appraised value or (ii) if
maintaining such
Primary Insurance Policy is prohibited by applicable law. With
respect to the
Lender PMI Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall maintain the
Primary
Insurance Policy for the life of such Mortgage Loans, unless
otherwise
provided for in the related Mortgage Note or prohibited by law.
The Master
Servicer agrees to effect the timely payment of the premiums
on each Primary Insurance Policy, and such costs not otherwise
recoverable
shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer from the related
proceeds of
liquidation and Subsequent Recoveries.
(c) In connection with
its activities as Master Servicer of the Mortgage
Loans, the Master Servicer agrees to present on behalf of itself,
the Trustee
and Certificateholders, claims to the insurer under any Primary
Insurance
Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as
shall be
necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policies
respecting
defaulted Mortgage Loans. Any amounts collected by the Master
Servicer under
any Primary Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the
Certificate Account.
SECTION
3.10. Enforcement of
Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption
Agreements.
(a) Except
as otherwise provided in this Section, when any property
subject to a Mortgage has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the
Master Servicer
shall to the extent that it has knowledge of such conveyance,
enforce any
due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage Note or Mortgage, to
the extent
permitted under applicable law and governmental regulations, but
only to the
extent that such enforcement will not adversely affect or
jeopardize coverage
under any Required Insurance Policy. Notwithstanding the foregoing,
the Master
Servicer is not required to exercise such rights with respect to a
Mortgage
Loan if the Person to whom the related Mortgaged Property has been
conveyed or
is proposed to be conveyed satisfies the terms and conditions
contained in the
Mortgage Note and Mortgage related thereto and the consent of the
mortgagee
under such Mortgage Note or Mortgage is not otherwise so required
under such
Mortgage Note or Mortgage as a condition to such transfer. In the
event that
the Master Servicer is prohibited by law from enforcing any such
due-on-sale
clause, or if coverage under any Required Insurance Policy would be
adversely
affected, or if nonenforcement is otherwise permitted hereunder,
the Master
Servicer is authorized, subject to Section 3.10(b), to take or
enter into an
assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to
whom such
property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which
such person
becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, unless prohibited by
applicable
state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon, provided that the
Mortgage
Loan shall continue to be covered (if so covered before the Master
Servicer
enters such agreement) by the applicable Required Insurance
Policies. The
Master Servicer, subject to Section 3.10(b), is also authorized
with the prior
approval of the insurers under any Required Insurance Policies to
enter into a
substitution of liability agreement with such Person, pursuant to
which the
original Mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is
substituted
as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note.
Notwithstanding the
foregoing, the Master Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default
under this
Section by reason of any transfer or assumption which the Master
Servicer
reasonably believes it is restricted by law from preventing, for
any reason
whatsoever.
III-11
<PAGE>
(b)
Subject to the Master Servicer's duty to enforce any
due-on-sale
clause to the extent set forth in Section 3.10(a) hereof, in any
case in which
a Mortgaged Property has been conveyed to a Person by a Mortgagor,
and such
Person is to enter into an assumption agreement or modification
agreement or
supplement to the Mortgage Note or Mortgage that requires the
signature of the
Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is
required
releasing the Mortgagor from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the
Master
Servicer shall prepare and deliver or cause to be prepared and
delivered to
the Trustee for signature and shall direct, in writing, the Trustee
to execute
the assumption agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgaged
Property is to
be conveyed and such modification agreement or supplement to the
Mortgage Note
or Mortgage or other instruments as are reasonable or necessary to
carry out
the terms of the Mortgage Note or Mortgage or otherwise to comply
with any
applicable laws regarding assumptions or the transfer of the
Mortgaged
Property to such Person. In connection with any such assumption, no
material
term of the Mortgage Note may be changed. In addition, the
substitute
Mortgagor and the Mortgaged Property must be acceptable to the
Master Servicer
in accordance with its underwriting standards as then in effect.
Together with
each such substitution, assumption or other agreement or instrument
delivered
to the Trustee for execution by it, the Master Servicer shall
deliver an
Officer's Certificate signed by a Servicing Officer stating that
the
requirements of this subsection have been met in connection
therewith. The
Master Servicer shall notify the Trustee that any such substitution
or
assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the
Trustee the
original of such substitution or assumption agreement, which in the
case of
the original shall be added to the related Mortgage File and shall,
for all
purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same
extent as all
other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof. Any
fee collected
by the Master Servicer for entering into an assumption or
substitution of
liability agreement will be retained by the Master Servicer as
additional
servicing compensation.
SECTION
3.11. Realization Upon
Defaulted Mortgage Loans; Repurchase
of Certain Mortgage Loans.
(a) The
Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to foreclose upon
or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties
securing such of
the Mortgage Loans as come into and continue in default and as to
which no
satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent
payments.
In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Master
Servicer
shall follow such practices and procedures as it shall deem
necessary or
advisable and as shall be normal and usual in its general mortgage
servicing
activities and meet the requirements of the insurer under any
Required
Insurance Policy; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall
not be
required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure
or towards
the restoration of any property unless it shall determine (i) that
such
restoration and/or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of
liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself of such expenses
and (ii) that
such expenses will be recoverable to it through the proceeds of
liquidation of
the Mortgage Loan and Subsequent Recoveries (respecting which it
shall have
priority for purposes of withdrawals from the Certificate Account).
The Master
Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses
incurred by it
in any such proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be
entitled to
reimbursement thereof from the proceeds of liquidation of the
Mortgage Loan
and Subsequent Recoveries with respect to the related Mortgaged
Property, as
provided in the definition of Liquidation Proceeds. If the Master
Servicer has
knowledge that a Mortgaged Property which the Master Servicer is
contemplating
III-12
<PAGE>
acquiring in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure is
located within a
1 mile radius of any site listed in the Expenditure Plan for the
Hazardous
Substance Clean Up Bond Act of 1984 or other site with
environmental or
hazardous waste risks known to the Master Servicer, the Master
Servicer will,
prior to acquiring the Mortgaged Property, consider such risks and
only take
action in accordance with its established environmental review
procedures.
With
respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale
shall
be taken in the name of the Trustee for the benefit of the
Certificateholders,
or its nominee, on behalf of the Certificateholders. The Trustee's
name shall
be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee
hereunder
and not in its individual capacity. The Master Servicer shall
ensure that the
title to such REO Property references the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement and
the Trustee's capacity thereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to sell
such REO
Property, the Master Servicer shall either itself or through an
agent selected
by the Master Servicer protect and conserve such REO Property in
the same
manner and to such extent as is customary in the locality where
such REO
Property is located and may, incident to its conservation and
protection of
the interests of the Certificateholders, rent the same, or any part
thereof,
as the Master Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the
Certificateholders for the period prior to the sale of such REO
Property. The
Master Servicer shall prepare for and deliver to the Trustee a
statement with
respect to each REO Property that has been rented showing the
aggregate rental
income received and all expenses incurred in connection with the
maintenance
of such REO Property at such times as is necessary to enable the
Trustee to
comply with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions. The
net
monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be
deposited in
the Certificate Account no later than the close of business on
each
Determination Date. The Master Servicer shall perform the tax
reporting and
withholding required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with
respect to
foreclosures and abandonments, the tax reporting required by
Section 6050H of
the Code with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from
individuals and
any tax reporting required by Section 6050P of the Code with
respect to the
cancellation of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by
preparing such
tax and information returns as may be required, in the form
required, and
delivering the same to the Trustee for filing.
In the
event that the Trust Fund acquires any Mortgaged Property as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent
default on a
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged
Property as
soon as practicable in a manner that maximizes the Liquidation
Proceeds
thereof, but in no event later than three years after its
acquisition by the
Trust Fund. In that event, the Trustee shall have been supplied
with an
Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by the Trust Fund
of such
Mortgaged Property subsequent to a three-year period, if
applicable, will not
result in the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of
any REMIC
hereunder as defined in section 860F of the Code or cause any REMIC
hereunder
to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Certificates
are
outstanding, the Trust Fund may continue to hold such Mortgaged
Property
(subject to any conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel)
after the
expiration of such three-year period. Notwithstanding any other
provision of
this Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Trust Fund
shall be
rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for
the
production of income by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a
manner or
pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property
to fail to
qualify as "foreclosure property" within the meaning of section
860G(a)(8) of
the Code or (ii) subject any REMIC hereunder to the imposition of
any federal,
state or local income taxes on the income earned from such
III-13
<PAGE>
Mortgaged Property under Section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise,
unless the
Master Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust
Fund with
respect to the imposition of any such taxes.
In the
event of a default on a Mortgage Loan one or more of whose
obligor is not a United States Person, as that term is defined in
Section
7701(a)(30) of the Code, in connection with any foreclosure or
acquisition of
a deed in lieu of foreclosure (together, "foreclosure") in respect
of such
Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer will cause compliance with the
provisions
of Treasury Regulation Section 1.1445-2(d)(3) (or any successor
thereto)
necessary to assure that no withholding tax obligation arises with
respect to
the proceeds of such foreclosure except to the extent, if any, that
proceeds
of such foreclosure are required to be remitted to the obligors on
such
Mortgage Loan.
The
decision of the Master Servicer to foreclose on a defaulted
Mortgage
Loan shall be subject to a determination by the Master Servicer
that the
proceeds of such foreclosure would exceed the costs and expenses of
bringing
such a proceeding. The income earned from the management of any
REO
Properties, net of reimbursement to the Master Servicer for
expenses incurred
(including any property or other taxes) in connection with such
management and
net of unreimbursed Master Servicing Fees, Advances and Servicing
Advances,
shall be applied to the payment of principal of and interest on the
related
defaulted Mortgage Loans (with interest accruing as though such
Mortgage Loans
were still current) and all such income shall be deemed, for all
purposes in
this Agreement, to be payments on account of principal and interest
on the
related Mortgage Notes and shall be deposited into the Certificate
Account. To
the extent the net income received during any calendar month is in
excess of
the amount attributable to amortizing principal and accrued
interest at the
related Mortgage Rate on the related Mortgage Loan for such
calendar month,
such excess shall be considered to be a partial prepayment of
principal of the
related Mortgage Loan.
The
proceeds from any liquidation of a Mortgage Loan, as well as
any
income from an REO Property, will be applied in the following order
of
priority: first, to reimburse the Master Servicer for any related
unreimbursed
Servicing Advances and Master Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse
the Master
Servicer or the Trustee for any unreimbursed Advances; third, to
reimburse the
Certificate Account for any Nonrecoverable Advances (or portions
thereof) that
were previously withdrawn by the Master Servicer or the Trustee
pursuant to
Section 3.08(a)(iii) that related to such Mortgage Loan; fourth, to
accrued
and unpaid interest (
