(a) To
provide for the distribution of the principal of and interest on the
Certificates and Interests in accordance with their terms, all of the sums
distributable under this Trust Agreement with respect to the Certificates and
the Interests and the performance of the covenants contained in this Trust
Agreement, the Depositor hereby bargains, sells, conveys, assigns and transfers
to the Trustee, in trust, without recourse and for the exclusive benefit of
the
Holders of the Certificates, all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in
and to any and all benefits accruing to the Depositor from: (i) the Mortgage
Loans, the related Trustee Mortgage Loan Files, and all Monthly Payments due
thereon after the Cut-Off Date and all principal prepayments collected with
respect to the Mortgage Loans and paid by a Borrower on or after the Cut-Off
Date, and proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the
foregoing; (ii) the Sale and Servicing Agreements; provided
that the
Depositor hereby reserves its right to indemnification under the Sale and
Servicing Agreements; (iii) the Custodial Agreement; (iv) the Assignment
Agreements; (v) the Distribution Account, the Master Servicer Account, the
Certificate Account and the Collection Accounts and (vi) proceeds of all of
the
foregoing (including, without limitation, all amounts, other than investment
earnings, from time to time held or invested in the Collection Account and
the
Certificate Account, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or
other property, all proceeds of any mortgage insurance, mortgage guarantees,
hazard insurance, or title insurance policy relating to the Mortgage Loans,
cash
proceeds, accounts, accounts receivable, notes, drafts, acceptances, chattel
paper, checks, deposit accounts, rights to payment of any and every kind, and
other forms of obligations and receivables, which at any time constitute all

Interests and the Certificates as specified herein (collectively items (i)
through (vi), the “Trust Estate”).
21
(b) It
is
intended that the conveyance of the Trust Estate by the Depositor to the Trustee
as provided in this Section be, and be construed as, a sale of the Trust Estate
by the Depositor to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders.
It
is, further, not intended that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Trust
Estate by the Depositor to the Trustee to secure a debt or other obligation
of
the Depositor. However, in the event that the Trust Estate is held to be the
property of the Depositor, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed
to create a security interest in the Trust Estate, then it is intended that
this
Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning
of
Articles 8 and 9 of the UCC and the corresponding articles of the Uniform
Commercial Code of any other applicable jurisdiction; and the Depositor hereby
grants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders a security
interest in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest, whether now owned
or existing or hereafter acquired or arising, in and to the Trust Estate. The
Depositor and the Trustee, at the Depositor’s direction and expense, shall, to
the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary
to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest
in
assets constituting the Trust Estate described above, such security interest
would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under
applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the
Agreement.
(c) The
foregoing sale, transfer, assignment, set-over and conveyance does not and
is
not intended to result in the creation of an assumption by the Trustee of any
obligation of the Depositor, the Seller or any other person in connection with
the Mortgage Loans, the Sale and Servicing Agreements, the Assignment Agreements
or under any agreement or instrument relating thereto except as specifically
set
forth herein.
(d) It
is
agreed and understood by the Depositor and the Trustee (and the Depositor so
represents and recognizes) that it is not intended that any Mortgage Loan to
be
included in the Trust Estate be (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 in the Indiana Home Loan Practices Act
effective February 1, 2005.
22
Section
2.02. Acceptance
by the Trustee and Securities Administrator.
By
its
execution of this Trust Agreement, the Trustee acknowledges and declares that
it
holds and shall hold or has agreed to hold (in each case through the applicable
Custodian) all documents delivered to any such person from time to time with
respect to the Mortgage Loans and all assets included in the definition of
Trust
Estate herein in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of all present and
future Holders of the Certificates. The Trustee has not created and shall not
create, and no Officer of the Trustee has any actual knowledge or has received
actual notice of, any interest in the Trust Estate contrary to the interests
created by this Trust Agreement. The Trustee has not entered, nor intends to
enter, into any subordination agreement or intercreditor agreement with respect
to any assets included in the Trust Estate.
Pursuant
to Section 2.02(f) of the Standard Terms, the Depositor acknowledges the
appointment of the Custodian and agrees to deliver, or cause to be delivered,
to
the Custodian all Mortgage Loan documents that are to be included in the Trustee
Mortgage Loan File for each Mortgage Loan for which the Custodian shall act
as
custodian. The Depositor and the Custodian acknowledge that, pursuant to the
Custodial Agreement and in connection with the formation of the Trust, the
Depositor hereby assigns each Custodial Agreement to the Trustee and agrees
to
cause a receipt to be issued in the name of the Trustee. It is understood that
the Custodian will charge for its services under this Agreement as set forth
in
a separate agreement between such Custodian and the Securities Administrator,
the payment of which fees and expenses (as set forth in such separate agreement)
shall be the sole obligation of the Securities Administrator. The Securities
Administrator will further pay or reimburse the Custodian upon its request
for
all reasonable expenses, disbursements and advances incurred or made by the
Custodian in accordance with this Agreement, the Custodial Agreement and any
document executed in connection herewith or therewith.
Pursuant
to a separate agreement, the Master Servicer shall pay the Trustee fee and
the
Securities Administrator fee from the Master Servicing Fee.

that on any Distribution Date on which the Subordination Level for
any
Class of Subordinate Certificates is less than its Subordination
Level as
of the Closing Date, the portion of the related Subordinate Principal
Prepayment Amount otherwise allocable to the Class or Classes of
the
Subordinate Certificates junior to such class will be allocated
pro
rata
to
the most senior Class of Subordinate Certificates for which the
Subordination Level on such Distribution Date is less than the
Subordination Level as of the Closing Date and all Classes of Subordinate
Certificates senior thereto;
|
|
(v)
|
to
each related Class of Certificates, in the order of their seniority,
the
amount of any unreimbursed Realized Losses previously allocated to
such
Certificates; and
|
|
(vi)
|
after
all of the other Classes of Certificates (other than the Residual
Certificates) have been paid in full, the remainder, if any, which
is
expected to be zero, of the Available Distribution Amount for all
Collateral Groups (other than any Fair Market Value Excess remaining
after
an optional termination of the Trust Estate) to the Class RC Certificates
to the extent such remainder is applicable to REMIC LT1 and otherwise
to
the Class R Certificates.
|
29
(d) On
each
Distribution Date on or after the Credit Support Depletion Date, to the extent
of the Available Distribution Amount allocable to each Collateral Group on
such
Distribution Date, distributions shall be made to the Senior Certificates
related to each such Collateral Group, in respect of interest (pro
rata
according to Accrued Certificate Interest for such Distribution Date) and then
with respect to principal (pro
rata
according to their outstanding principal balances; and the remainder (other
than
any Fair Market Value Excess remaining after the optional termination of the
Trust Estate), if any, which is expected to be zero, of the Available
Distribution Amount for each such Collateral Group shall be distributed to
the
holders of the Class RC Certificates to the extent such remainder is applicable
to REMIC LT1 and otherwise to the holder of the Class R
Certificates.
On
each
Distribution Date on which the aggregate Certificate Principal Balance of the
Senior Certificates of two or more related Certificate Groups has been reduced
to zero, any amounts distributable pursuant to this Section 3.01(b) shall be
allocated, as to each applicable related Class of Subordinate Certificates,
in
proportion to such Class’s Subordinate Class Percentage of the Subordinate
Principal Distribution Amount for the Collateral Group relating to each such
retired Certificate Group.
On
each
Distribution Date on which the Senior Certificates of two or more related
Certificate Groups remain outstanding, any amounts distributable pursuant to
this Section 3.01(b) shall be distributed in proportion to the aggregate
Certificate Principal Balances of such Certificates of each such Certificate
Group.
(e) On
any
Distribution Date on which any Certificate Group constitutes an
Undercollateralized Group, all amounts with respect to the related Mortgage
Loans otherwise distributable as principal on the related Subordinate
Certificates, in reverse order of priority (other than amounts necessary to
pay
Deferred Principal Amounts or unpaid Current Shortfalls) (or, following the
related Credit Support Depletion Date, such other amounts described in the
immediately following sentence), shall be distributed as principal to the Senior
Certificates (other than any Interest Only Certificates) of such
Undercollateralized Group pursuant to Section 3.01(a)(ii), until the aggregate
Certificate Principal Balance of such Senior Certificates equals the Pool
Balance of the related Collateral Group (such distribution, an “Undercollateralization
Distribution”).
In
the event that any Certificate Group constitutes an Undercollateralized Group
on
any Distribution Date following the related Credit Support Depletion Date,
Undercollateralization Distributions shall be made from any Available
Distribution Amount for each related Collateral Group that does not constitute
an Undercollateralized Group remaining after all required amounts have been
distributed to the Senior Certificates of such other Certificate Groups. In
addition, the amount of any unpaid Current Shortfalls with respect to an
Undercollateralized Group on any Distribution Date (including any Current
Shortfalls for such Distribution Date) shall be distributed to the REMIC
Certificates that are Senior Certificates of such Undercollateralized Group
prior to the payment of any Undercollateralization Distributions from amounts
otherwise distributable as principal on the related Subordinate Certificates,
in
reverse order of priority (or, following the Credit Support Depletion Date,
as
provided in the preceding sentence).
30
If
on any
Distribution Date two or more related Certificate Groups are Undercollateralized
Groups, the distribution described in the immediately preceding paragraph shall
be made in proportion to the amount by which the aggregate Certificate Principal
Balance of the REMIC Certificates that are Senior Certificates of each such
Certificate Group, after giving effect to distributions pursuant to Section
3.01(a) on such Distribution Date, exceeds the Pool Balance of the related
Collateral Group for such Distribution Date.
(f) REMIC
LT1
Distributions. On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall
apply amounts in the REMIC LT1 Distribution Account to the REMIC LT1 Regular
Interests in the same manner that amounts are distributed on any Corresponding
Classes of Certificates on such Distribution Date.
On
each
Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall apply remaining amounts
in
the REMIC LT1 Distribution Account in respect of interest to the Class LT1
Pool,
Class LT1-Sub-A and Class LT1-Sub-B Interests in accordance with their interest
rates set forth above. In addition, on each Distribution Date, the Trustee
shall
apply amounts in the REMIC LT1 Distribution Account in respect of principal
to
the Class LT1-Pool, Class LT1-Sub-A and Class LT1-Sub-B Interests as
follows:
|
(i)
|
first,
to the Class LT1-Sub-A and Class LT1-Sub-B Interests, the minimum
amounts
to each such that following that allocation the weighted average
rate of
the Class LT1-Sub-A and Class LT1-Sub-B Interests, weighted on the
principal balances thereof and determined by subjecting the Class
LT1-Sub-A Interest to a floor of 8.8588% and subjecting the Class
LT1-Sub-B Interest to a cap of 4.000%, equals the interest rate on
the
Class B Certificates for the following Distribution
Date;
|
|
(ii)
|
second,
to the Class LT1-Pool Interest until its principal balance is reduced
to
zero; and
|
|
(iii)
|
third,
pro rata to the Class LT1-Sub-A and Class LT1-Sub-B Interests in
accordance with their principal balances following clause (i)
above.
|
Realized
Losses and Shortfalls shall be allocated in the same manner.
The
Securities Administrator shall withdraw all amounts allocated to the various
REMIC LT1 Regular Interests and deposit such amounts in the Certificate Account
for distribution pursuant to Section 3.01(a) above on such Distribution Date.
Any amount remaining in the REMIC LT1 Distribution Account after making all
other payments required under this Section 3.01(d) shall be distributed to
the
holder of the Class RC Certificates.
(g) REMIC
MT
Distributions. On each Distribution Date, the Securities Administrator shall
apply amounts in the REMIC MT Distribution Account to the REMIC MT Regular
Interests in the same manner that amounts are distributed on the Corresponding
Classes of Certificates on such Distribution Date. Realized Losses and
Shortfalls shall be allocated in the same manner. The Securities Administrator
shall withdraw all amounts allocated to the various REMIC MT Regular Interests
and deposit such amounts in the Certificate Account for distribution pursuant
to
Section 3.01(a) above on such Distribution Date. Any amount remaining in the
REMIC MT Distribution Account after making all other payments required under
this Section 3.01(e) shall be distributed to the holder of the Class R
Certificates.
31
(h) On
each
Distribution Date on which any Fair Market Value Excess is on deposit in the
Certificate Account and such Fair Market Value Excess has not been previously
distributed in accordance with this Section 3.01(f), the Securities
Administrator shall withdraw such Fair Market Value Excess, from the Certificate
Account, and shall distribute it to the Holder of the Class RC
Certificates.
Section
3.02. Allocation
of Realized Losses and Shortfalls.
(a) Realized
Losses of Principal.
(i) On
each
Distribution Date, the respective Applicable Fractions of each Realized Loss
on
a Mortgage Loan, to the extent allocable to principal, shall be allocated to
the
related Collateral Groups for further allocation to the Class or Classes of
REMIC Interests supported by such Collateral Groups in reduction of the
Certificate Balance thereof; provided,
however,
that
any Realized Loss allocated to a Collateral Group shall be allocated first
to
the Subordinate Interests related to such Collateral Group, in reverse numerical
order, until the Certificate Balance thereof is reduced to zero, and then
pro
rata
to the
Senior Interests related to such Collateral Group; provided
further,
that
Realized Losses otherwise allocable to the Class 5A-3 Certificates will instead
be allocated to the Class 5A-4 Certificates, until the Class Principal Balance
of the Class 5A-4 Certificates is reduced to zero.
(ii) The
distribution of any Current Realized Losses and Deferred Principal Amounts
to a
Class of Senior Interests on any Distribution Date shall not result in a further
reduction of the Certificate Balance of such Class of Senior Interests, but
instead shall result in the reduction of the Certificate Balance of the
Subordinate Interests in REMIC MT, until the Certificate Balance thereof has
been reduced to zero. The Current Realized Losses and Deferred Principal Amounts
shall be paid from the amounts otherwise payable to the Classes of Subordinate
Interests related to the applicable REMIC, beginning with the Class having
the
highest numerical designation. Any Current Realized Losses and Deferred
Principal Amounts not paid on the Distribution Date relating to the Due Period
in which the Realized Loss was incurred shall be carried forward and shall
be
included in the Current Realized Losses and Deferred Principal Amounts for
the
next Distribution Date.
(iii) Any
Realized Losses allocated to a Class of REMIC MT Interests pursuant to Section
3.02(a)(i) and not reimbursed on the same Distribution Date shall be allocated
on the same date to the Corresponding Class or Classes of REMIC UT
Certificates.
(b) Realized
Losses Allocable to Interest. On each Distribution Date, the portion of each
Realized Loss on a Mortgage Loan that exceeds the outstanding principal amount
of such Mortgage Loan shall be allocated pro rata to the related Collateral
Group or Groups, on the basis of the amount of interest due to such Collateral
Group from such Mortgage Loan. On each Distribution Date, the interest portion
of each Realized Loss allocated to a Collateral Group in accordance with the
preceding sentence shall be further allocated pro rata, on the basis of Accrued
Certificate Interest, on the Class Principal Balance thereof, in the case of
the
Senior Certificates, and the related Apportioned Principal Balance, in the
case
of the Subordinated Interests, to each Class of related REMIC Interests;
provided that the interest portion of any Realized Losses allocated to the
related Subordinate Interests in a REMIC as provided in this Section 3.02(b)
shall be allocated to such Subordinate Interests in reverse order of
seniority.
32
(c) Interest
Shortfall. Notwithstanding anything in the Standard Terms to the contrary,
on
each Distribution Date, before any distributions are made on the REMIC Interests
and the Certificates, Month End Interest Shortfall not covered by compensating
interest from Monthly Advances and Servicemembers Shortfall with respect to
any
Mortgage Loan shall be allocated pro
rata
among
the Classes of the related REMIC based on the amount of interest otherwise
owing
thereto in reduction of that amount. Such amounts shall be allocated in the
following order of priority: (1) sequentially, to the Subordinate Certificates,
in the inverse order of their priority and (2) to the related Classes of Senior
Certificates, pro
rata,
in
proportion to the Accrued Certificate Interest otherwise distributable
thereon.
(d) Modification
Losses. In the event that the Note Rate on a Mortgage Loan is reduced as a
result of a modification of the terms of such Mortgage Loan, such modification
shall be disregarded for purposes of calculating the Certificate Rate on any
Class of Certificates or Class of REMIC Interest. Any shortfall resulting from
any such modifications, however, shall be treated as a Realized Loss occurring
on each Distribution Date and shall be applied to reduce the Certificate
Balances of the Certificates and REMIC Interests in the manner and order of
priority set forth above.
(e) In
the
event of any Subsequent Recovery, (i) such amount shall be treated as a
Principal Prepayment Amount and shall be included in the related Available
Distribution Amount for the Distribution Date occurring in the month following
the month in which such recovery is received and (ii) the Certificate Balance
of
the Class or Classes to which the related Realized Loss had previously been
allocated, whether or not such Class or Classes remain outstanding, shall be
increased in direct order of priority, in each case by an amount equal to the
lesser of (x) the amount of such recovery and (y) the aggregate amount of
Realized Losses previously allocated to such Classes less amounts previously
allocated to such Classes pursuant to this paragraph.
