The contents of each Mortgage File required to be retained by the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement and thus not delivered to the Purchaser or its designee are and shall be held in trust by the Servicer for the benefit of the Purchaser as the owner thereof.

As more fully set forth in Section 21, it is the express intention of the parties that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be, and be construed as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller and not a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller.

The Seller shall, at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Closing Date (or such later date as may be mutually agreed upon by the Seller and the Purchaser), deliver and release to the Custodian, the Mortgage Loan Documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan in the related Mortgage Loan Package.

In the event that such original or copy of any document submitted for recordation to the appropriate public recording office is not so delivered to the Purchaser or its designee within ninety (90) days following the related Closing Date, and in the event that the Seller does not cure such failure within sixty (60) days after receipt of written notification of such failure from the Purchaser, the related Mortgage Loan shall, upon the request of the Purchaser, be repurchased by the Seller at a price and in the manner specified in Section 7.03. The foregoing repurchase obligation shall not apply in the event the Seller cannot cause the Servicer to deliver such original or clerk-certified copy of any document submitted for recordation to the appropriate public recording office within the specified period due to a delay caused by the recording office in the applicable jurisdiction; provided that the Seller shall cause the Servicer instead to deliver a recording receipt of such recording office or, if such recording receipt is not available, an officer’s certificate of a servicing officer of the Servicer, confirming that such document has been accepted for recording and that the Servicer shall immediately deliver such document upon receipt; and, provided, further, that if the Seller cannot cause the Servicer to deliver such original or clerk-certified copy of any document submitted for recordation to the appropriate public recording office within the specified time for any reason within twelve (12) months after receipt of written notification of such failure from the Purchaser, the Seller shall repurchase the related Mortgage Loan at the price and in the manner specified in Section 7.03.

The Seller, with respect to Mortgage Loans sold by it, and, solely if specified below, the Servicer, hereby represent and warrant to the Purchaser, its successors and assigns and the Successor Servicer, that, as to each Mortgage Loan, as of the related Closing Date:

(a)

Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and the tape delivered by the Seller to the Purchaser is true, correct and complete in all material respects.

(b)

No Outstanding Charges. (1) All taxes, ground rents, special assessments, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, leasehold payments, water, sewer and municipal charges which previously became due and owing have been paid, or escrow funds have been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such escrowed item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable prior to any “economic loss” dates or discount dates (or if payments were made after any “economic loss” date or discount date, then Seller has paid any penalty or reimbursed any discount out of Seller’s corporate funds) and (2) all flood and hazard insurance premiums which are due, have been paid without loss or penalty to the Mortgagor. Seller has received no notice of, and has no knowledge of, any event, including but not limited to the bankruptcy filing or death of a Borrower, which may or could give rise to a Borrower default under the Note or Mortgage. None of the Seller, the Servicer or any prior originator or servicer has advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance from any party other than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount due under the Mortgage Loan.

(c)

Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments which (a) have been recorded in the applicable public recording office if required by law or if necessary to maintain the lien priority of the Mortgage, and (b) which have been delivered to the Purchaser; the substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by the related policy, and is reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. No other instrument of waiver, alteration or modification has been executed, and no Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption agreement is a part of the Mortgage File and is reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. As of the Transfer Date, the full original principal amount of each Mortgage Loan has been advanced as provided for in the Mortgage Loan documents, and there is no requirement for any future advances.

(d)

No Defenses. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including, without limitation, the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including, without limitation, the defense of usury, and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto; and the Mortgagor was not a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated. Since the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property has not been subject to any bankruptcy proceeding or foreclosure proceeding and the Mortgagor has not filed for protection under, or has been a debtor under, applicable bankruptcy laws.

(e)

Hazard Insurance. All buildings or other customarily insured improvements upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a Qualified Insurer generally acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customarily required in the area where the related Mortgaged Property is located as well as all additional requirements set forth herein, pursuant to an insurance policy conforming to the requirements of Customary Servicing Procedures and providing coverage in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property or (ii) the outstanding principal balance owing on the Mortgage Loan. All such insurance policies are in full force and effect and contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the originator of the Mortgage Loan, its successors and assigns as mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified on a flood hazard map or flood insurance rate map issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available), a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration is in effect. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” hazard insurance policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of the Purchaser upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor, any subservicer or any prior servicer having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either, including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other person or entity, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by the Seller.

(f)

Compliance with Applicable Laws. Any and all requirements of any applicable federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury, truth in lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, predatory and abusive lending laws, equal credit opportunity, fair housing or disclosure laws applicable to the origination and servicing of the Mortgage Loan have been complied with, including, but not limited to, the following: (i) the Federal Truth in Lending Act of 1969, and Federal Reserve Regulation Z thereunder; (ii) the Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act (“ECOA”) and Federal Reserve Regulation B thereunder; (iii) the Federal Fair Credit Reporting Act; (iv) the Federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act of 1974 (“RESPA”), and Regulation X thereunder; (v) the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973; (vi) the Fair Housing Act; (vii) the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act; (viii) the Financial Institutions Reform Recovery and Enforcement Act of 1989, all as amended, including all regulations issued pursuant thereto. The Servicer maintains, and shall maintain, evidence of such compliance as required by applicable law or regulation and shall make such evidence available for inspection at the Servicer’s office during normal business hours upon reasonable advance notice. Each Mortgage Loan at the time it was made complied in all material respects with applicable local, state, and federal laws, including, but not limited to, all applicable predatory and abusive lending laws.

(g)

No Satisfaction of Mortgage. The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation, subordination, rescission or release. Neither the Seller nor the Servicer has waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be in default, and neither the Seller nor the Servicer has waived any default other than in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures.

(h)

Valid First or Second Lien. Except with respect to each Cooperative Loan, the related Mortgage is properly recorded and is a valid, existing and enforceable (A) first lien and first priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller to be a First Lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), or (B) second lien and second priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller to be a Second Lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), in either case, on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the Mortgaged Property, free and clear of all adverse claims, liens and encumbrances having priority over the lien of the Mortgage, subject only to (i) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (ii) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording being acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property, (iii) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not individually or in the aggregate materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property and (iv) with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller to be a Second Lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), a First Lien on the Mortgaged Property. Except with respect to each Cooperative Loan, any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, existing and enforceable (A) first lien and first priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller to be a First Lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) or (B) second lien and second priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller to be a Second Lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule), in either case, on the property described therein and the Seller has full right to sell and assign the same to the Purchaser. With respect to each Second Lien Mortgage Loan, where required or customary in the jurisdiction in which the related Mortgaged Property is located, the original lender has filed for record a request for notice of any action by the senior lienholder under the related First Lien, and the original lender has notified any senior lienholder in writing of the existence of the Second Lien Mortgage Loan and requested notification of any action to be taken against the Mortgagor by the senior lienholder. With respect to each Second Lien Mortgage Loan, either (a) no consent for the Second Lien Mortgage Loan is required by the holder of the related first lien or (b) such consent has been obtained and is contained in the Mortgage File.

No predatory or deceptive lending practices, including, without limitation, the extension of credit without regard to the ability of the Mortgagor to repay and the extension of credit which has no apparent benefit to the Mortgagor, were employed in the origination of the Mortgage Loan. No Mortgage Loan is a High Cost Loan or Covered Loan, as applicable (as such terms are defined in the then current Standard & Poor’s LEVELS® Glossary).

(lll)

Tax Identification/Back-Up Withholding. All tax identifications for individual Mortgagors, have been certified as required by law. Seller has complied with all IRS requirements regarding the obtainment and solicitation of taxpayer identification numbers and the taxpayer identification numbers provided to Purchaser as reflected on the system are correct. To the extent a Mortgage Loan is on back up withholding, Seller has substantiated both the initial reason for the back up withholding and the amount of such back up withholding and the reason for such back up withholding in the amount currently withheld still exists.

(mmm)

IRS Forms. All IRS forms, including, but not limited to, Forms 1099, 1098, 1041 and K-1, as appropriate, which are required to be filed with respect to the Servicing for activity occurring on or before year end 2003 have been filed or will be filed in accordance with applicable law.

(nnn)

Optional Insurance. No Mortgage Loans have mortgage/credit life, accidental death, disability, unemployment, or any similar insurance collected as part of the Mortgagor’s monthly payment.

(ooo)

Electronic Drafting of Payments. Concerning Mortgage Loans for which Seller drafts Monthly Payments electronically from the Mortgagor’s bank account, such drafting occurs in compliance with applicable, and the applicable agreement with the Mortgagor; and such applicable agreement with the Mortgagor both legally and contractually can be, and will be fully assigned to Purchaser pursuant to the assignment provisions contained therein.

(n)

Seller’s Origination. The Seller’s decision to originate any mortgage loan or to deny any mortgage loan application is an independent decision based upon Seller’s underwriting guidelines, and is in no way made as a result of Purchaser’s decision to purchase, or not to purchase, or the price Purchaser may offer to pay for, any such mortgage loan, if originated.

(o)

Ownership. Immediately prior to the sale of each Mortgage Loan to Purchaser, Seller is the sole owner thereof, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance. Seller has not sold, assigned, transferred, pledged or hypothecated any interest in any Mortgage Loan (including, without limitation, any interest in the Servicing Rights) to any person other than Purchaser. Upon the sale of such Mortgage Loan (including, without limitation, all interest in the Servicing Rights) to Purchaser, Purchaser will be the sole owner thereof, free and clear of any lien, claim or encumbrance immediately prior to the sale of such Mortgage Loan to Purchaser, the Seller was the sole owner of such Mortgage Loan and had good and marketable title thereto, free and clear of all liens, in each case except for liens to be released simultaneously with the sale to the Buyer hereunder.

(p)

Title to the Related Escrow Accounts. As of the related Closing Date, Seller is and shall remain, until such Transfer Date, the custodian of the related Escrow Accounts. Neither Seller nor any Prior Servicer of the Mortgage Loans has entered into a settlement agreement with any party or with any state attorney general relative to the handling of tax and insurance escrows which would be binding on Purchaser or would otherwise result in Purchaser’s having to change the escrow cushion requirements for any of the Mortgage Loans after the related Closing Date.

(q)

Related Escrow Account Maintenance. All related Escrow Accounts are being maintained in accordance with applicable law, and the terms of the Mortgages related thereto. Except as to payments which are past due under the Mortgage Notes, all escrow balances required by the Mortgages and paid to Seller for the account of the Mortgagors and Seller are on deposit in the appropriate Escrow Accounts.

There are no pledged accounts in lieu of escrow deposits.

(r)

Litigation; Compliance with Laws. As of the related Closing Date, there is and shall be no litigation, proceeding or governmental investigation existing or pending or to the knowledge of Seller threatened, or any order, injunction, decree or settlement agreement outstanding against or relating to Seller or Mortgage Loans, which may have a material adverse effect upon the business, operations, assets or financial condition of Seller or which may draw into question the validity of this Agreement or which may impair the ability of Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement, nor does Seller know of any basis for any such litigation, proceeding or governmental investigation. As of the related Closing Date, Seller has not violated and will not violate any applicable law, regulation, ordinance, order, injunction, decree or settlement agreement, nor any other requirement of any governmental body or court, which may materially affect any of the Mortgage Loans, the Mortgaged Properties or the Servicing Rights.

(t)

Audits.

Such disclosure shall not affect any rights or remedies which Purchaser may have against Seller as a result of an repurchase demand or any indemnity or other remedy of Purchaser hereunder.

The approval of OTS, FDIC or any other federal or state regulatory body having jurisdiction over Seller is not necessary for Seller’s execution and consummation of this Agreement or, if necessary, timely approval, reasonably acceptable to Purchaser, including any approval or filing required of Purchaser or Seller pursuant to the ▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇-▇▇▇▇▇▇ Antitrust Improvements Act, shall be obtained by Seller, at its expense but with the assistance of Purchaser, and written evidence of same shall be provided to Purchaser by Seller on or before the Transfer Date.

Subsection 7.03

Remedies for Breach of Representations and Warranties.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 7.01 and 7.02 shall survive the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any Mortgage Note or Assignment of Mortgage (except with respect to each MERS Designated Mortgage Loan) or the examination or lack of examination of any Mortgage File. Upon discovery by the Seller, the Servicer or the Purchaser of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans or the interest of the Purchaser therein (or which materially and adversely affects the interest of the Purchaser in or the value of the related Mortgage Loan in the case of a representation and warranty relating to a particular Mortgage Loan), the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the others.

With respect to those representations and warranties which are made to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, if it is discovered by the Seller or the Purchaser 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 interest of the Purchaser (or which materially and adversely affects the value of a Mortgage Loan or the interests of the Purchaser in the related Mortgage Loan in the case of a representation and warranty relating to a particular Mortgage Loan), notwithstanding the Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation and warranty.

Within sixty (60) days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to either the Seller or the Servicer of any breach of a representation or warranty which materially and adversely affects the value of a Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage Loans or the interest of the Purchaser therein, the Seller or the Servicer, as the case may be, shall use its best efforts promptly to cure such breach in all material respects and, if such breach cannot be cured, the Seller shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans at the Repurchase Price. Notwithstanding the above sentence, within 30 days of the earlier of either discovery by, or notice to, the Seller of any breach of the representations or warranties set forth in clauses (gg), (qq), (ww), (zz), (aaa) or (mmm) of Subsection 7.01, the Seller shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price, together with all expenses incurred by the Purchaser as a result of such repurchase. However, the Seller may, at its option, with the Purchaser’s prior approval, such approval not to be withheld unreasonably, and assuming that the Seller has a Substitute Mortgage Loan, rather than repurchase the Mortgage Loan as provided above, remove such Mortgage Loan and substitute in its place a Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans; provided, however, that any such substitution shall be effected within two (2) years of the related Closing Date. If the Seller has no Substitute Mortgage Loan, it shall repurchase the deficient Mortgage Loan. Any repurchase of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 7.03 shall occur on a date designated by the Purchaser and shall be accomplished by the Seller remitting by wire transfer to the Purchaser the amount of the Repurchase Price.

At the time of repurchase of any deficient Mortgage Loan (or removal of any Deleted Mortgage Loan), the Purchaser and the Seller shall arrange for the assignment of the repurchased Mortgage Loan (or Deleted Mortgage Loan) to the Seller or its designee and the delivery to the Seller of any documents held by the Purchaser or any custodian relating to the repurchased Mortgage Loan in the manner required by this Agreement with respect to the purchase and sale of such Mortgage Loan on the related Closing Date. In the event a deficient Mortgage Loan is repurchased, the Seller shall, simultaneously with its remittance to the Purchaser of such Repurchase Price, give written notice to the Purchaser that such repurchase has taken place. Upon such repurchase, the Mortgage Loan Schedule shall simultaneously be amended to reflect the withdrawal of the repurchased Mortgage Loan from this Agreement.

As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes one or more Substitute Mortgage Loans, the Seller shall effect such substitution by delivering to the Purchaser for each Substitute Mortgage Loan the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment of Mortgage (except with respect to each MERS Designated Mortgage Loan) and such other documents and agreements as are required by Subsection 6.03. The Seller shall remit to the Servicer for distribution the Monthly Payment due on each Substitute Mortgage Loan in the month following the date of such substitution. Monthly Payments due with respect to Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions to the Purchaser will include the Monthly Payment due on such Deleted Mortgage Loan in the month of substitution, and the Seller shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received by it in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall give written notice to the Purchaser that such substitution has taken place and shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Substitute Mortgage Loan. Upon such substitution, each Substitute Mortgage Loan shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the Seller shall be deemed to have made with respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan, as of the date of substitution, the covenants, representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 7.01 and 7.02.

Purchaser shall return or cause to be promptly returned to Seller all Deleted Mortgage Loan Documents with respect to all such Deleted Mortgage Loans for which the Seller substitutes a Substitute Mortgage Loan.

For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Seller will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans (after application of scheduled principal payments due in the month of substitution). The amount of such shortfall, plus an amount equal to the aggregate of any Monthly Advances made with respect to such Deleted Mortgage Loans, shall be remitted to the Servicer by the Seller for distribution by the Servicer in the month of substitution.

In addition to such cure, repurchase and substitution obligations, the Seller or the Servicer shall indemnify the Purchaser and hold it harmless against any out of pocket losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees (including, without limitation, legal fees incurred in connection with the enforcement of the Seller’s indemnification obligation under this Subsection 7.03) and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion arising from or relating to, a breach of the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, representations and warranties contained in this Agreement.

Any cause of action against the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, relating to or arising out of the breach of any representations and warranties made in Subsection 7.01 or 7.02 shall accrue upon (i) discovery of such breach by the Purchaser or notice thereof by the Seller or the Servicer to Purchaser, (ii) failure by the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, to cure such breach, repurchase such Mortgage Loan as specified above, substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan for such Mortgage Loan as specified above and/or indemnify the Purchaser, and (iii) demand upon the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, by the Purchaser for compliance with the terms of this Agreement.

It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, set forth in this Subsection 7.03 to cure, repurchase or substitute for a defective Mortgage Loan and/or to indemnify the Purchaser constitute the sole remedies of the Purchaser respecting a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 7.01 and 7.02.

The Seller shall be responsible for causing to occur the recordation of any intervening Assignments of Mortgage, if any.

SECTION 11.

Administration and Servicing of Mortgage Loans.

Subsection 11.01

Servicer to Act as Servicer; Subservicing.

(a)

The Servicer, as an independent contractor, shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and Customary Servicing Procedures and the terms of the Mortgage Notes and Mortgages, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through subservicers or agents, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable and consistent with the terms of this Agreement. The Servicer may perform its servicing responsibilities through agents or independent contractors, but shall not thereby be released from any of its responsibilities hereunder. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, the Servicer may delegate any of its duties under this Agreement to one or more of its affiliates without regard to any of the requirements of this section; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be released from any of its responsibilities hereunder by virtue of such delegation. The Seller may perform any of its servicing responsibilities hereunder or may cause the Subservicer to perform any such servicing responsibilities on its behalf, but the use by the Seller of the Subservicer shall not release the Seller from any of its obligations hereunder and the Seller shall remain responsible hereunder for all acts and omissions of the Subservicer as fully as if such acts and omissions were those of the Seller. The Servicer shall pay all fees and expenses of the subservicer from its own funds (provided that any such expenditures that would constitute Servicing Advances if made by the Servicer hereunder shall be reimbursable to the Servicer as Servicing Advances), and the subservicer’s fee shall not exceed the Servicing Fee. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Seller shall not waive any Prepayment Penalty or portion thereof unless (i) the enforceability thereof shall have been limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership or other similar laws relating to creditors’ rights generally or is otherwise prohibited by law, or (ii) the enforceability thereof shall have been permanently limited due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment or (iii) in the Seller’s reasonable judgment, (x) such waiver relates to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default, (y) such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Penalty and related Mortgage Loan and (z) doing so is standard and customary in servicing Mortgage Loans (including any waiver of a Prepayment Penalty in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that is related to a default or reasonably foreseeable default). Except as provided in the preceding sentence, in no event will the Seller waive a Prepayment Penalty in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that is not related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default.

(b)

At the cost and expense of the Servicer, without any right of reimbursement from the Custodial Account, the Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and responsibilities of a subservicer and arrange for any servicing responsibilities to be performed by a successor subservicer meeting the requirements in the preceding paragraph; provided, however, that nothing contained herein shall be deemed to prevent or prohibit the Servicer, at the Servicer’s option, from electing to service the related Mortgage Loans itself. If the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement are terminated and if requested to do so by the Purchaser or its designee, the Servicer shall at its own cost and expense terminate the rights and responsibilities of the subservicer as soon as is reasonably possible. The Servicer shall pay all fees, expenses or penalties necessary in order to terminate the rights and responsibilities of the subservicer from the Servicer’s own funds without reimbursement from the Purchaser.

(c)

The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into an agreement with the subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer by the subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

(d)

Any subservicing agreement and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving the subservicer shall be deemed to be between the subservicer and Servicer alone, and the Purchaser shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the subservicer including no obligation, duty or liability of Purchaser to pay the subservicer’s fees and expenses. For purposes of distributions and advances by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received a payment on a Mortgage Loan when the subservicer has received such payment.

(e)

Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer may waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Servicer’s reasonable and prudent determination such waive, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the Purchaser; provided, however, that (unless the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan, or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, imminent, and the Servicer has the consent of the Purchaser or its designee) the Servicer shall not enter into any payment plan or agreement to modify payments with a Mortgagor lasting more than six (6) months or permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, the Lifetime Rate Cap, the Initial Rate Cap, the Periodic Rate Cap or the Gross Margin, defer or forgive the payment of any principal or interest, change the outstanding principal amount (except for actual payments of principal), make any future advances or extend the final maturity date, as the case may be, with respect to such Mortgage Loan or subordinate the priority of the lien of the Mortgage Loan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer in its own name or acting through subservicers or agents is hereby authorized and empowered by the Purchaser when the Servicer believes it appropriate and reasonable in its best judgment, to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself and the Purchaser, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the Mortgaged Properties and to institute foreclosure proceedings or obtain a deed in lieu of foreclosure so as to convert the ownership of such properties, and to hold or cause to be held title to such properties, on behalf of the Purchaser pursuant to the provisions of Subsection 11.12.

(f)

The Seller shall forward to the Custodian original documents evidencing an assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan entered into in accordance with this Agreement within two weeks of their execution; provided, however, that the Seller shall provide the Custodian with a certified true copy of any such document submitted for recordation within two weeks of its execution, and shall provide the original of any document certified by the appropriate public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original within ninety (90) days of its submission for recordation.

(g)

The Servicer shall notify the Purchaser or its designee of its intention to institute any foreclosure proceeding no less than ten (10) days prior to initiating such proceeding. The Servicer shall notify the Purchaser or its designee of its intention to accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure or a partial release of any of the Mortgaged Property subject to the lien of the Mortgage no less than ten (10) days prior to accepting such deed in lieu or partial release and shall only accept such deed in lieu or grant such partial release if the Purchaser or its designee has not objected before the end of the tenth day after delivery of such notice. In connection with any foreclosure sale, the Servicer shall consult with the Purchaser or its designee with regard to a bid price for the related Mortgaged Property and shall set such bid price in accordance with the Purchaser’s or its designee’s instructions. The Servicer shall make all required Servicing Advances and shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with all applicable laws, rules and regulations and shall provide to the Mortgagors any reports required to be provided to them thereby; provided that the Servicer shall obtain the prior written consent of the Purchaser or its designee prior to making any Servicing Advance of $5,000 or more. The Purchaser or its designee shall furnish to the Servicer any powers of attorney and other documents reasonably necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement.

(h)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, if the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Purchaser or its designee otherwise requests an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property, such an inspection or review is to be conducted by a qualified inspector at the Purchaser’s expense. Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall promptly provide the Purchaser or its designee with a written report of the environmental inspection. After reviewing the inspection, the Purchaser or its designee shall determine how the Servicer shall proceed with respect to the Mortgaged Property.

Subsection 11.02

Liquidation of Mortgage Loans.

In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan is not paid when the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Mortgagor fails to perform any other covenant or obligation under the Mortgage Loan and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Servicer shall take such action as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the Purchaser. In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan remains delinquent for a period of ninety (90) days or more, the Servicer shall, subject to the provisions of Section 11.01(g) with the consent of the Purchaser or its designee, commence foreclosure proceedings in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures and the guidelines set forth by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac. In such connection, the Servicer shall from its own funds make all necessary and proper Servicing Advances. If the portion of any Liquidation Proceeds allocable as a recovery of interest on any Mortgage Loan is less than the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest on such Mortgage Loan as of the date such proceeds are received, then the applicable Servicing Fees with respect to such Mortgage Loan shall be paid first and any amounts remaining thereafter shall be distributed to the Purchaser.

Subsection 11.03

Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.

Continuously from the applicable Closing Date until the related Servicing Transfer Date, the Servicer will proceed diligently, in accordance with this Agreement, to collect all payments due under each of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall become due and payable. Further, the Servicer will in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures ascertain and estimate taxes, assessments, fire and hazard insurance premiums, premiums for Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, and all other charges that, as provided in any Mortgage, will become due and payable to the end that the installments payable by the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable.

Subsection 11.04

Establishment of Custodial Account Deposits in Custodial Account.

The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Mortgage Loan separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts (collectively, the “Custodial Account”), titled “[Name of Servicer], in trust for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage Acquisition Corp., as Purchaser of Mortgage Loans and various Mortgagors.” Such Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Account. The creation of the Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a certificate delivered by the Servicer (the “Custodial Account Certification”) in the form of Exhibit 8.

The Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account on a daily basis, and retain therein the following payments and collections received or made by it subsequent to the related Cut-off Date (other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the related Cut-off Date):

(a)

all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments, on the Mortgage Loans;

(b)

all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans adjusted to the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate;

(c)

all Liquidation Proceeds;

(d)

all proceeds received by the Servicer under any title insurance policy, hazard insurance policy, Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or other insurance policy other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures;

(e)

all awards or settlements in respect of condemnation proceedings or eminent domain affecting any Mortgaged Property which are not released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures;

(f)

any amount required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Subsections 11.15, 11.17 and 11.19;

all amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer in connection with shortfalls in principal amount of Substitute Mortgage Loans pursuant to Subsection 7.03;

(i)

amounts required to be deposited by the Servicer in connection with the deductible clause of any hazard insurance policy.

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges, assumption fees and other ancillary fees need not be deposited by the Servicer in the Custodial Account.

The Servicer may invest the funds in the Custodial Account in Eligible Investments designated in the name of the Servicer for the benefit of the Purchaser, which shall mature not later than the Business Day next preceding the Remittance Date next following the date of such investment (except that (A) any investment in the institution with which the Custodial Account is maintained may mature on such Remittance Date and (B) any other investment may mature on such Remittance Date if the Servicer shall advance funds on such Remittance Date, pending receipt thereof to the extent necessary to make distributions to the Purchaser or its designee) and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein and above, all income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and shall be subject to withdrawal by the Servicer. The amount of any losses incurred in respect of any such investments shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized.

Subsection 11.05

Withdrawals from the Custodial Account.

The Servicer shall, from time to time, withdraw funds from the Custodial Account for the following purposes:

(a)

to make payments to the Purchaser or its designee in the amounts and in the manner provided for in Subsection 11.15;

(d)

to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances, to the extent that such amounts are nonrecoverable (as certified by the Servicer to the Purchaser or its designee in an Officer’s Certificate) by the Servicer pursuant to subclause (b) or (c) above, provided that the Mortgage Loan for which such advances were made is not required to be repurchased by the Seller pursuant to Subsection 7.03;

(e)

to reimburse itself for expenses incurred by and reimbursable to it pursuant to Subsection 12.01;

(f)

[Reserved];

(g)

to pay to itself any interest earned or any investment earnings on funds deposited in the Custodial Account, net of any losses on such investments;

(h)

to withdraw any amounts inadvertently deposited in the Custodial Account; and

(i)

to clear and terminate the Custodial Account upon the termination of this Agreement.

Upon request, the Servicer will provide the Purchaser or its designee with copies of invoices or other documentation relating to Servicing Advances and P&I Advances that have been reimbursed from the Custodial Account.

Subsection 11.06

Establishment of Escrow Account; Deposits in Escrow Account.

The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow Payments separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Escrow Accounts (collectively, the “Escrow Account”), titled “[Name of Servicer], in trust for ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage Acquisition Corp., as Purchaser of Mortgage Loans and various Mortgagors.” The Escrow Account shall be an Eligible Account. The creation of the Escrow Account shall be evidenced by a certificate delivered by the Servicer (the “Escrow Account Certification”) in the form of Exhibit 9.

The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account on a daily basis, and retain therein: (a) all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement and (b) all amounts representing proceeds of any hazard insurance policy which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Mortgaged Property. The Servicer shall make withdrawals therefrom only in accordance with Subsection 11.07 hereof. As part of its servicing duties, the Servicer shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on funds in the Escrow Account, to the extent required by law.

Subsection 11.07

Withdrawals From Escrow Account.

Withdrawals from the Escrow Account shall be made by the Servicer only (a) to effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, premiums for Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, fire and hazard insurance premiums or other items constituting Escrow Payments for the related Mortgage, (b) to reimburse the Servicer for any Servicing Advance made by Servicer pursuant to Subsection 11.08 hereof with respect to a related Mortgage Loan, (c) to refund to any Mortgagor any funds found to be in excess of the amounts required under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan, (d) for transfer to the Custodial Account upon default of a Mortgagor or in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Loan and if permitted by applicable law, (e) for application to restore or repair of the Mortgaged Property, (f) to pay to the Mortgagor, to the extent required by law, any interest paid on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account, (g) to pay to itself any interest earned on funds deposited in the Escrow Account (and not required to be paid to the Mortgagor), (h) to the extent permitted under the terms of the related Mortgage Note and applicable law, to pay late fees with respect to any Monthly Payment which is received after the applicable grace period, (i) to withdraw suspense payments that are deposited into the Escrow Account, (j) to withdraw any amounts inadvertently deposited in the Escrow Account or (k) to clear and terminate the Escrow Account upon the termination of this Agreement.

Subsection 11.08

Payment of Taxes; Insurance and Other Charges; Collections Thereunder.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of premiums for Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and fire and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges (including renewal premiums) and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of the Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which shall have been estimated and accumulated by the Servicer in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the terms of the Mortgage. To the extent that a Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor. The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the timely payment of all such bills and shall effect timely payments of all such bills irrespective of each Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make Servicing Advances to effect such payments, subject to its ability to recover such Servicing Advances pursuant to Subsections 11.05(c), 11.05(d) and 11.07(b); provided, that the Servicer shall obtain the prior written consent of the Purchaser or its designee prior to making any Servicing Advance of $5,000 or more.

Subsection 11.09

Transfer of Accounts.

The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account to a different Eligible Account. Such transfer shall be made only upon obtaining the prior written consent of the Purchaser or its designee; such consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Subsection 11.10

Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located by an Qualified Insurer in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (a) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property or (b) the greater of (i) the outstanding principal balance owing on the Mortgage Loan and (ii) an amount such that the proceeds of such insurance shall be sufficient to avoid the application to the Mortgagor or loss payee of any coinsurance clause under the policy. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as a special flood hazard area (and such flood insurance has been made available) the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the National Flood Insurance Program, in an amount representing coverage not less than the lesser of (A) the minimum amount required under the terms of the coverage to compensate for any damage or loss to the Mortgaged Property on a replacement cost basis (or the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan if replacement cost basis is not available) or (B) the maximum amount of insurance available under the National Flood Insurance Program. The Servicer shall also maintain on REO Property fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property, liability insurance and, to the extent required and available under the National Flood Insurance Program, flood insurance in an amount required above. Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be deposited in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or property acquired in liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or to be released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Customary Servicing Procedures) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Subsection 11.05. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance need be required by the Servicer of any Mortgagor or maintained on REO Property other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance. All policies required hereunder shall be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to Servicer, and shall provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in amount or material change in coverage to the Servicer. The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of choice in selecting either its insurance carrier or agent; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies are acceptable to prudent lenders in the secondary mortgage market and are licensed to do business in the state wherein the property subject to the policy is located.

The hazard insurance policies for each Mortgage Loan secured by a unit in a condominium development or planned unit development shall be maintained with respect to such Mortgage Loan and the related development in a manner which is consistent with the requirements of prudent lenders in the secondary mortgage market.

Subsection 11.11

Fidelity Bond; Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Servicer shall maintain with a Qualified Insurer, at its own expense, a blanket Fidelity Bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any capacity requiring such persons to handle funds, money, documents or papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. These policies must insure the Servicer against losses resulting from fraud, theft, errors, omissions, negligence, dishonest or fraudulent acts committed by the Servicer’s personnel, any employees of outside firms that provide data processing services for the Servicer, and temporary contract employees or student interns. The Fidelity Bond shall also protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this Subsection 11.11 requiring such Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum coverage under any such Fidelity Bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to $10 million. Upon request of the Purchaser or its designee, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a certified true copy of such Fidelity Bond or a certificate evidencing the same with a statement that the Servicer shall endeavor to provide written notice to the Purchaser or its designee thirty (30) days prior to modification or any material change.

Subsection 11.12

Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

(a)

In the event that title to the Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the Purchaser or its nominee.

(b)

The Purchaser or its designee, by giving notice to the Servicer, may elect to manage and dispose of all REO Property acquired pursuant to this Agreement by itself. If the Purchaser or its designee so elects, the Purchaser or its designee shall assume control of REO Property at the time of its acquisition and the Servicer shall forward the related Mortgage File to the Purchaser or its designee as soon as is practicable. Promptly upon assumption of control of any REO Property, the Purchaser or its designee shall reimburse any related Servicing Advances or other expenses incurred by the Servicer with respect to that REO Property.

(c)

If the Purchaser or its designee has not informed the Servicer that it will manage REO Property, the provisions of this Section 11.11(c) shall apply. The Servicer shall cause to be deposited on a daily basis in the Custodial Account all revenues received with respect to the conservation of the related REO Property. The Servicer shall make distributions as required on each Remittance Date to the Purchaser of the net cash flow from the REO Property (which shall equal the revenues from such REO Property net of the expenses described above and of any reserves reasonably required from time to time to be maintained to satisfy anticipated liabilities for such expenses).

(d)

The Servicer shall use its best efforts to dispose of the REO Property as soon as possible and shall sell such REO Property in any event within one year after title has been taken to such REO Property, unless (i) (A) a REMIC election has not been made with respect to the arrangement under which the Mortgage Loans and the REO Property are held, and (ii) the Servicer determines, and gives an appropriate notice to the Purchaser to such effect, that a longer period is necessary for the orderly liquidation of such REO Property. Servicer shall obtain the written consent of the Purchaser or its designee prior to disposing of any REO Property. If a period longer than one year is permitted under the foregoing sentence and is necessary to sell any REO Property, (i) the Servicer shall report monthly to the Purchaser as to the progress being made in selling such REO Property and (ii) if, with the written consent of the Purchaser, a purchase money mortgage is taken in connection with such sale, such purchase money mortgage shall name the Servicer as mortgagee, and such purchase money mortgage shall not be held pursuant to this Agreement, but instead a separate participation agreement among the Servicer and Purchaser shall be entered into with respect to such purchase money mortgage.

(e)

The Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, manage, conserve, protect and operate the REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed property for its own account, and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed. Any disbursement in excess of $5,000 shall be made only with the written approval of the Purchaser or its designee.

(f)

The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property, liability insurance and, to the extent required and available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in the amount required above.

(g)

The disposition of REO Property shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price, and upon such terms and conditions, as the Servicer deems to be in the best interests of the Purchaser. The proceeds of sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account. As soon as practical thereafter the expenses of such sale shall be paid and the Servicer shall reimburse itself for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances, unpaid Servicing Fees and unreimbursed advances made pursuant to this Section, and on the Remittance Date immediately following the Principal Prepayment Period in which such sale proceeds are received the net cash proceeds of such sale remaining in the Custodial Account shall be distributed to the Purchaser.

Subsection 11.13

Notification of Adjustments.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Interest Rate on the related Interest Rate Adjustment Date in compliance with the requirements of applicable law and the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note. The Servicer shall execute and deliver any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments. The Servicer shall promptly, upon written request therefor, deliver to the Purchaser such notifications and any additional applicable data regarding such adjustments and the methods used to calculate and implement such adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Servicer or the receipt of notice from the Purchaser that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer shall immediately deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss or deferral caused the Purchaser thereby.

Subsection 11.14

Servicing Compensation.

As compensation for its services hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to retain the Servicing Fee from interest payments actually collected on the Mortgage Loans. Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, late payment charges, and other ancillary income shall be retained by the Servicer to the extent not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided for herein. Prepayment Penalties shall be the property of the Purchaser and may not be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.

Subsection 11.15

Distributions.

On each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall remit by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated in writing by the Purchaser of record or its designee on the preceding Record Date (a) all amounts credited to the Custodial Account at the close of business on the related Determination Date, net of charges against or withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 11.05(b) through (h), plus (b) all amounts, if any, which the Servicer is obligated to distribute pursuant to Subsection 11.17, minus (c) any amounts attributable to Principal Prepayments received after the end of the calendar month preceding the month in which the Remittance Date occurs, minus (d) any amounts attributable to Monthly Payments collected but due on a Due Date or Dates subsequent to the related Due Date.

With respect to any remittance received by the Purchaser or its designee after the Business Day on which such payment was due, the Servicer shall pay to the Purchaser interest on any such late payment at an annual rate equal to the rate of interest published as the average rate in The Wall Street Journal, as its prime lending rate, adjusted as of the date of each change, plus three percent (3%), but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall be paid by the Servicer to the Purchaser on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period commencing with the Business Day on which such payment was due and ending with the Business Day immediately preceding the Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. The payment by the Servicer of any such interest shall not be deemed an extension of time for payment or a waiver of any Event of Default by the Servicer.

Subsection 11.16

Statements to the Purchaser.

On or prior to the fifth (5th) Business Day of each month, the Servicer shall forward to the Purchaser or its designee a statement in the form of Exhibit 15 attached hereto, certified by a Servicing Officer, setting forth on a loan-by-loan basis certain information, including but not limited to the following: (a) the amount of the distribution made on such Remittance Date which is allocable to principal and allocable to interest; (b) the amount of servicing compensation received by the Servicer during the prior calendar month; (c) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the last day of the preceding month; and (d) information regarding delinquencies on Mortgage Loans, indicating the number and aggregate principal amount of Mortgage Loans which are either one (1), two (2) or three (3) or more months delinquent and the book value of any REO Property. The Servicer shall submit to the Purchaser or its designee monthly a liquidation report with respect to each Mortgaged Property sold in a foreclosure sale as of the related Record Date and not previously reported. Such liquidation report shall be incorporated into the remittance report delivered to the Purchaser or its designee. The Servicer shall also provide such information as set forth above to the Purchaser or its designee in electronic form in the Servicer’s standard format, a copy of which has been provided by the Servicer. The Servicer shall promptly notify the Purchaser of (i) any litigation or governmental proceedings pending against the Servicer of the type described in Section 7.02(e) or (ii) any affiliations or relationships that may develop following a Securitization Transfer between the Servicer and any of the Persons identified in Item 1119 of Regulation AB.

In addition, within a reasonable period of time after the end of each calendar year, the Servicer will furnish a report to each Person that was a Purchaser at any time during such calendar year. Such report shall state the aggregate of amounts distributed to the Purchaser for such calendar year. Such obligation of the Servicer shall be deemed to have been satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information shall be provided by the Servicer pursuant to any requirements of the Code.

The Servicer shall prepare and file any and all tax returns, information statements or other filings required to be delivered to any governmental taxing authority, the Mortgagor or to the Purchaser or its designee pursuant to any applicable law with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the Servicer shall provide the Purchaser or its designee with such information concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary for such Purchaser to prepare federal income tax returns as the Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time.

Subsection 11.17

Advances by the Servicer.

On the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall either (a) deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds an amount equal to the aggregate amount of all Monthly Payments (with interest adjusted to the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate) which were due on the Mortgage Loans during the applicable Due Period and which were delinquent at the close of business on the immediately preceding Determination Date (each such advance, a “P&I Advance”), (b) cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of the Custodial Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by this Subsection 11.17, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such P&I Advances in the form of any combination of (a) or (b) aggregating the total amount of advances to be made. Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be replaces by the Servicer by deposit in the Custodial Account on or before any future Remittance Date if funds in the Custodial Account on such Remittance Date shall be less than payments to the Purchaser required to be made on such Remittance Date. The Servicer’s obligation to make P&I Advances as to any Mortgage Loan will continue through the last Monthly Payment due prior to the payment in full of a Mortgage Loan, or through the last Remittance Date prior to the Remittance Date for the distribution of all other payments or recoveries (including proceeds under any title, hazard or other insurance policy, or condemnation awards) with respect to a Mortgage Loan. The determination by the Servicer that a P&I Advance, if made, would be nonrecoverable, shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer, delivered to the Purchaser or its designee, which details the reasons for such determination.

Subsection 11.18

Maintenance of Mortgage Impairment Insurance.

In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy insuring against losses arising from fire and hazards covered under extended coverage on all of the Mortgage Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Section 11.10 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 11.10, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 11.10. Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any such policy relating to a Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 11.05. Such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property a policy complying with Section 11.10, and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, the Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account at the time of such loss the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause, such amount to be deposited from the Servicer’s funds, without reimbursement therefor. Upon request of the Purchaser, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a certified true copy of such policy and a statement from the insurer thereunder that such policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Purchaser.

Subsection 11.19

Assumption Agreements.

The Servicer will use its reasonable best efforts to enforce any “due-on-sale” provision contained in any Mortgage or Mortgage Note; provided that, subject to the Purchaser’s or its designee’s prior approval, the Servicer shall permit such assumption if so required in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note. When the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance, exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause applicable thereto; provided, however, the Servicer will not exercise such rights if prohibited by law from doing so or if the exercise of such rights would impair or threaten to impair any recovery under the related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any. In connection with any such assumption, the outstanding principal amount, the Monthly Payment, the Mortgage Interest Rate, the Lifetime Rate Cap, the Gross Margin, the Initial Rate Cap or the Periodic Rate Cap of the related Mortgage Note shall not be changed, and the term of the Mortgage Loan will not be increased or decreased. If an assumption is allowed pursuant to this Subsection 11.19, the Servicer with the prior consent of the issuer of the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, is authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note.

Subsection 11.20

Satisfaction of Mortgages and Release of Mortgage Files.

Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer will obtain the portion of the Mortgage File that is in the possession of the Purchaser or its designee, prepare and process any required satisfaction or release of the Mortgage and notify the Purchaser or its designee in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement. The Purchaser agrees to deliver to the Servicer the original Mortgage Note for any Mortgage Loan not later than five (5) Business Days following its receipt of a notice from the Servicer that such a payment in full has been received or that a notification has been received that such a payment in full shall be made. Such Mortgage Note shall be held by the Servicer, in trust, for the purpose of canceling such Mortgage Note and delivering the canceled Mortgage Note to the Mortgagor in a timely manner as and to the extent provided under any applicable federal or state law.

In the event the Servicer grants a satisfaction or release of a Mortgage without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or should the Servicer otherwise prejudice any right the Purchaser may have under the mortgage instruments, the Servicer shall remit to the Purchaser or its designee the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan by deposit thereof in the Custodial Account. The Fidelity Bond shall insure the Servicer against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

Subsection 11.21

Annual Statement as to Compliance.

(a) On or prior to March 15th of each year, the Servicer will deliver to the Purchaser or its designee an Officer’s Certificate stating that (a) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding calendar year and its performance under this Agreement has been made under such officer’s supervision, and (b) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof and the action being taken by the Servicer to cure such default and (b) on or before March 15th of each year beginning March 15th, 2007, the servicer compliance statement required by Item 1123 of Regulation AB, which as of the date hereof requires a statement to the effect that (i) an authorized officer of the Servicer has reviewed (or a review has been made under its supervision) of the Servicer’s activities under this Agreement during the prior calendar year and (ii) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement in all respects throughout the period covered by the prior calendar year or, if there has been a failure to fulfill any such obligation in any respect, a statement of such failure known to such officer and the nature and the status thereof.

Subsection 11.22

Annual Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Report or Attestation.

(a) On or prior to March 15th of each year, the Servicer at its expense shall cause a firm of independent public accountants which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Purchaser or the Master Servicer to the effect that such firm has, with respect to the Servicer’s overall servicing operations, examined such operations in accordance with the requirements of the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, stating such firm’s conclusions relating thereto and (b) on or before March 15th of each year beginning March 15th, 2007, furnish to the Purchaser a report by a registered public accounting firm that attests to, and reports on, the assessment made by the Servicer pursuant to Subsection 4.08, as required by Rules 13a-18 and 15d-18 of the Securities Exchange Act and Section 1122(b) of Regulation AB, which attestation shall be in accordance with Rule 1-02(a)(3) and Rule 2-02(g) of Regulation S-X under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act.

Subsection 11.23

Servicer Shall Provide Access and Information as Reasonably Required.

Upon request from the Purchaser in connection with any such termination, the Seller shall prepare, execute and deliver any and all documents and other instruments, place in the Purchaser’s possession all Mortgage Files, and do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, to prepare notices to the mortgagors and related insurance companies, or otherwise, at the Seller’s sole expense. The Seller agrees to cooperate with the Purchaser and such successor in effecting the termination of the Seller’s responsibilities and rights hereunder as servicer, including, without limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Seller to the Custodial Account, REO Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans. The Seller shall follow the servicing transfer instructions of the Purchaser, which are attached hereto as Exhibit 14 with respect to servicing transfer procedures. The Seller shall not be entitled to any transfer fee. The Purchaser shall have the right to terminate the servicing with no fee as to any individual Mortgage Loan pursuant to and in accordance with this Subsection 14.01 in the event of such Mortgage Loan becomes 60 days delinquent or subject to a foreclosure proceeding.

Subsection 14.02

(a)

With respect to the Mortgage Loans:

(I)

Prior to the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement pursuant to Subsections 12.04, 13.01 or 14.01, the Purchaser or the Master Servicer shall, (a) succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement or (b) appoint a successor which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement upon such termination. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Purchaser or the Master Servicer may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree. In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement shall be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned Subsections, the Servicer shall discharge such duties and responsibilities during the period from the date it acquires knowledge of such termination until the effective date thereof with the same degree of diligence and prudence which it is obligated to exercise under this Agreement, and shall take no action whatsoever that might impair or prejudice the rights or financial condition of its successor. The resignation or removal of the Servicer pursuant to the aforementioned Subsections shall not become effective until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Subsection and shall in no event relieve the Seller of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Subsections 7.01 and 7.02 and the remedies available to the Purchaser or the Master Servicer under Subsection 7.03, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Subsections 7.01 and 7.02 shall be applicable to the Seller notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.

(II)

Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer, the Purchaser and the Master Servicer an instrument accepting such appointment, whereupon such successor shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer, with like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement. Any termination or resignation of the Servicer or this Agreement pursuant to Subsections 12.04, 13.01 or 14.01 shall not affect any claims that the Purchaser or the Master Servicer may have against the Servicer arising prior to any such termination or resignation.

(III)

The Servicer shall promptly deliver to the successor the funds in the Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Mortgage Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder and the Servicer shall account for all funds and shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things as may reasonably be required to more fully and definitively vest in the successor all such rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Servicer. The successor servicer shall not be responsible for any costs associated with the transfer by the Servicer of the Mortgage Files or related documents or statements to such successor.

(IV)

Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, the Servicer shall notify by mail the Purchaser and the Master Servicer of such appointment.

SECTION 16.

Cooperation of Seller with a Reconstitution.

The Seller and the Purchaser agree that with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans, after the related Closing Date, on one or more dates (each, a “Reconstitution Closing Date”) at the Purchaser’s sole option, the Purchaser may effect a sale (each, a “Reconstitution”) of some or all of the Mortgage Loans then subject to this Agreement, without recourse, to:

(i)

one or more third party purchasers in one or more Whole Loan Transfers; or

(ii)

one or more trusts or other entities to be formed as part of one or more Securitizations;

provided that in no event shall the Purchaser enter into more than 5 Reconstitutions or 3 Securitizations with respect to any single Mortgage Loan Package.

With respect to each Reconstitution, the Seller agrees to deliver to the related Master Servicer on or prior to the date which is five (5) Business Days prior to the related Reconstitution Closing Date, a Mortgage Loan Schedule. The Seller agrees to execute (i) in connection with a Whole Loan Transfer, an assignment, assumption and recognition agreement, a seller’s warranties and servicing agreement or a participation and servicing agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser and Seller, and (ii) in connection with a Securitization, an Assignment and Recognition Agreement substantially in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 10 (collectively, the agreements referred to herein are designated the “Reconstitution Agreements”).

In connection with each Securitization, the Servicer, the Master Servicer and Purchaser agree to enter into and deliver certain additional documents, instruments or agreements, including, but not limited to, 10B-5 opinions, assignment, assumption and recognition agreements, and enforceability opinions, as may be necessary to effect one or more Securitizations at the expense of the Purchaser.

With respect to each Whole Loan Transfer and each Securitization entered into by the Purchaser and the Master Servicer, the Seller agrees (1) to cooperate fully with the Purchaser and the Master Servicer and any prospective purchaser with respect to all reasonable requests and due diligence procedures, including participating in meetings with rating agencies, bond insurers and such other parties as the Purchaser shall designate and participating in meetings with prospective purchasers of the Mortgage Loans or interests therein and providing information reasonably requested by such purchasers; (2) to execute, deliver and perform all Reconstitution Agreements required by the Purchaser and the Master Servicer and such other agreements requested by bond insurers or other credit enhancers involved in a Reconstitution or net interest margin securities related to such Reconstitution; provided that each of the Seller and the Purchaser is given an opportunity to review and reasonably negotiate in good faith the content of such documents not specifically referenced or provided for herein; (3) to restate the representations and warranties set forth in this Agreement as of the settlement or closing date in connection with such Reconstitution (each, a “Reconstitution Date”) or make the representations and warranties set forth in the related selling/servicing guide of the Master Servicer or issuer, as the case may be, or such representations and warranties as may be required by any Rating Agency or prospective purchaser of the related securities or such Mortgage Loans, in connection with such Reconstitution (to the extent possible and modified to the extent necessary to accurately reflect the pool statistics of the Mortgage Loans as of the date of such Reconstitution and any events or circumstances existing subsequent to the related Closing Date(s)); (4) to deliver to the Purchaser for inclusion in any prospectus or other offering material such publicly available information regarding the Seller and its financial condition, a summary of its underwriting guidelines and its mortgage loan delinquency, foreclosure and loss experience and any additional information requested by the Purchaser, and to deliver to the Purchaser any similar nonpublic, unaudited financial information, in which case the Purchaser shall bear the cost of having such information audited by certified public accountants if the Purchaser desires such an audit, or as is otherwise reasonably requested by the Purchaser and which the Seller is capable of providing without unreasonable effort or expense, and to indemnify the Purchaser and its affiliates for material misstatements or omissions contained (i) in such information and (ii) on the Mortgage Loan Schedule; (5) to deliver to the Purchaser and to any Person designated by the Purchaser, at the Purchaser’s expense, such statements and audit letters of reputable, certified public accountants pertaining to information provided by the Seller pursuant to clause (4) above as shall be reasonably requested by the Purchaser; (6) to deliver to Purchaser and any prospective purchaser within five (5) days after request by Purchaser or prospective purchaser, information, in form and substance satisfactory to Purchaser and such prospective purchaser, with respect to each originator of the Mortgage Loans (x) reasonably requested by the Purchaser or (y) required by Item 1110 of Regulation AB under the Securities Act and the Securities Exchange Act, as such regulation is amended from time to time (the “Regulation AB”). The Seller shall use its reasonable best efforts to provide to such master servicer or issuer, as the case may be, and any other participants or purchasers in such Reconstitution: (i) any and all information and appropriate verification of information which may be reasonably available to the Seller or its affiliates, whether through letters of its auditors and counsel or otherwise, as the Purchaser, the Master Servicer or any such other participant shall request; (ii) such additional representations, warranties, covenants, opinions of counsel, letters from auditors, and certificates of public officials or officers of the Seller and/or the Servicer as are reasonably believed necessary by the Purchaser, the Master Servicer or any such other participant; and (iii) to execute, deliver and satisfy all conditions set forth in any indemnity agreement required by the Purchaser, the Master Servicer or any such participant. Moreover, the Seller agrees to cooperate with all reasonable requests made by the Purchaser or the Master Servicer to effect such Reconstitution Agreements. The Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser, the Master Servicer, and each Affiliate designated by the Purchaser or the Master Servicer and each Person who controls the Purchaser, the Master Servicer or such Affiliate and hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that each of them may sustain in any way related to any information provided by or on behalf of the Seller regarding the Seller, the Seller’s servicing practices or performance, the Mortgage Loans or the Underwriting Guidelines set forth in any offering document prepared in connection with any Reconstitution. For purposes of the previous sentence, “Purchaser” shall mean the Person then acting as the Purchaser under this Agreement and any and all Persons who previously were “Purchasers” under this Agreement and “Successor Servicer’ shall mean the Person when acting as the Successor Servicer under this Agreement and any and all Persons who previously were “Successor Servicers” under this Agreement.

In the event the Purchaser or the Master Servicer has elected to have the Seller hold record title to the Mortgages, prior to the Reconstitution Date, the Seller shall prepare an assignment of mortgage in blank or to the prospective purchaser or trustee, as applicable, from the Seller, acceptable to the prospective purchaser or trustee, as applicable, for each Mortgage Loan that is part of the Reconstitution and shall pay all preparation and recording costs associated therewith (except with respect to each MERS Designated Mortgage Loan). In connection with the Reconstitution, the Seller shall execute each Assignment of Mortgage, (except with respect to each MERS Designated Mortgage Loan), track such Assignments of Mortgage to ensure they have been recorded and deliver them as required by the prospective purchaser or trustee, as applicable, upon the Seller’s receipt thereof. Additionally, the Seller shall prepare and execute, at the direction of the Purchaser or the Master Servicer, any note endorsement in connection with any and all seller/servicer agreements.

With respect to any Mortgage Loans sold in a Securitization transaction where the Seller is the servicer, the Seller agrees that on or before March 15th of each year beginning March 15, 2006, the Seller shall deliver to the depositor, the trustee and the Master Servicer, and their officers, directors and affiliates, a certification in the form attached as Exhibit 13 hereto, executed by the senior officer in charge of servicing at the Seller for use in connection with any Form 10-K to be filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission with respect to the securitization trust. The Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Person acting as depositor in the Securitization transaction, the Person acting as trustee in the Securitization transaction, the Master Servicer and their respective officers, directors and Affiliates, from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon any breach of the Seller’s obligations under this paragraph or any material misstatement or omission, negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Seller in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for in the preceding sentence is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any indemnified party, then the Seller agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of such indemnified party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of such indemnified party, on the one hand, and the Seller, on the other, in connection with a breach of the Seller’s obligations under this paragraph or any material misstatement or omission, negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Seller in connection therewith.

All Mortgage Loans not sold or transferred pursuant to a Reconstitution shall remain subject to this Agreement and, shall continue to be serviced in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and with respect thereto this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

In connection with any Securitization Transfer in which the Servicer is servicing, the Servicer shall, if requested by the Purchaser or its designee, deliver to the Purchaser or its designee within five (5) Business Days after such request information, in form and substance satisfactory to the Purchaser or such designee, with respect to such Servicer information reasonably requested by the Purchaser or its designee and the information set forth under Item 1108(b) and 1108(c) of Regulation AB (collectively, the “Servicer Information”).

Notwithstanding any provisions of this Agreement, in connection with the final rules promulgated by the Securities and Exchange Commission related to asset-backed securities (Release Nos. 33-8518; 34-50905) (as such rules may be amended or modified from time to time, the “ABS Rules”), each of the parties hereto shall cooperate with the other party in providing such other statements and reports as are required by and in conformance with the ABS Rules.

The Servicer shall indemnify the Purchaser, each affiliate of the Purchaser and each underwriter as placement agent participating in the Reconstitution and each Person who controls the Purchaser or such affiliate and their respective present and former directors, officers, employees and agents, and hold each of them harmless from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and expenses and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that each of them may sustain arising out of or based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of a material fact contained in the information provided by or on behalf of the Servicer regarding the Servicer, the Servicer’s servicing practices or the performance of the Mortgage Loans set forth in any offering document prepared in connection with any Reconstitution. For purposes of the previous sentence, “Purchaser” shall mean the Person then acting as the Purchaser under this Agreement and any and all Persons who previously were “Purchasers” under this Agreement.

SECTION 17.

Severability Clause.

Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or which is held to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable or is held to be void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective, as to such jurisdiction, to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction as to any Mortgage Loan shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law which prohibits or renders void or unenforceable any provision hereof. If the invalidity of any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement shall deprive any party of the economic benefit intended to be conferred by this Agreement, the parties shall negotiate, in good faith, to develop a structure the economic effect of which is nearly as possible the same as the economic effect of this Agreement without regard to such invalidity.

SECTION 18.

No Partnership.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a co partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto and the services of the Servicer shall be rendered as an independent contractor and not as agent for the Purchaser or the Master Servicer.

SECTION 21.

Intention of the Parties.

It is the intention of the parties that the Purchaser is purchasing, and the Seller is selling, the Mortgage Loans and not a debt instrument of the Seller or another security. Accordingly, the parties hereto each intend to treat the transaction for federal income tax purposes as a sale by the Seller, and a purchase by the Purchaser, of the Mortgage Loans. The Purchaser shall have the right to review the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgage Files to determine the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans which shall affect the federal income tax consequences of owning the Mortgage Loans and the Seller shall cooperate with all reasonable requests made by the Purchaser in the course of such review.

It is not the intention of the parties that such conveyances be deemed a pledge thereof. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, such assets are held to be the property of the Seller or if for any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in either such assets, then (a) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York and (b) the conveyances provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an assignment and a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser of a security interest in all of the assets transferred, whether now owned or hereafter acquired.

Waivers.

No term or provision of this Agreement may be waived or modified unless such waiver or modification is in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver or modification is sought to be enforced.

SECTION 31.

Non-Solicitation.

Except as provided below, each of the Seller, the Servicer and any of their respective affiliates hereby agrees that it will not take any action or permit or cause any action to be taken by any of its agents or affiliates, or by any independent contractors, employees, or affiliates, to solicit the prepayment of, refinance of, or any alteration of payments or the terms of any Mortgage Loan, or solicit any Mortgage Loan sold to Purchaser for the purpose of making another loan, or establishing a line of credit, which will be secured in whole or in party by a lien on such Mortgagor’s principal residence, without the prior written consent of Purchaser or its designee.

FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL

▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage Acquisition Corp.
▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇
▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇, ▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇▇▇

Dear Sirs:

You have requested [our] [my] opinion, as [Assistant] General Counsel to [SELLER] (the “Company”), with respect to certain matters in connection with the sale by the Company of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to that certain Flow Mortgage Loan Sale and Interim Servicing Agreement (the “Purchase Agreement”), dated [DATE], hereby executed by and between ▇.▇. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mortgage Acquisition Corp., as purchaser (the “Purchaser”) and the Company.

[We] [I] have examined the following documents:

the Purchase Agreement;

the form of Assignment of Mortgage;

the form of endorsement of the Mortgage Notes; and

such other documents, records and papers as we have deemed necessary and relevant as a basis for this opinion.

To the extent [we] [I] have deemed necessary and proper, [we] [I] have relied upon the representations and warranties of the Company contained in the Agreements. [We] [I] have assumed the authenticity of all documents submitted to [us] [me] as originals, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of natural persons and the conformity to the originals of all documents.

Based upon the foregoing, it is [our] [my] opinion that:

The Company is a [type of entity] duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the [United States] and is qualified to transact business in, and is in good standing under, the laws of [the state of incorporation].

The Company has the power to engage in the transactions contemplated by the Agreements and all requisite power, authority and legal right to execute and deliver the Agreements, and to perform and observe the terms and conditions of such Agreements

The Purchase Agreements has been duly authorized, executed and delivered by the Company and is a legal, valid and binding agreement enforceable in accordance with its respective terms against the Company, subject to bankruptcy laws and other similar laws of general application affecting rights of creditors and subject to the application of the rules of equity, including those respecting the availability of specific performance, none of which will materially interfere with the realization of the benefits provided thereunder or with the Purchaser’s ownership of the Mortgage Loans.

The Company has been duly authorized to allow any of its officers to execute any and all documents by original signature in order to complete the transactions contemplated by the Agreements.

Either (i) no consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Company of or compliance by the Company with the Purchase Agreement, or the sale of the Mortgage Loans or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Agreements; or (ii) any required consent, approval, authorization or order has been obtained by the Company.

Neither the consummation of the transactions contemplated by, nor the fulfillment of the terms of, the Agreements conflicts or will conflict with or results or will result in a breach of or constitutes or will constitute a default under the charter or by-laws of the Company, the terms of any indenture or other agreement or instrument to which the Company is a party or by which it is bound or to which it is subject, or violates any statute or order, rule, regulations, writ, injunction or decree of any court, governmental authority or regulatory body to which the Company is subject or by which it is bound.

There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best of [our] [my] knowledge, threatened against the Company which, in [our] [my] judgment, either in any one instance or in the aggregate, may result in any material adverse change in the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets of the Company or in any material impairment of the right or ability of the Company to carry on its business substantially as now conducted or in any material liability on the part of the Company or which would draw into question the validity of the Agreements, or the Mortgage Loans or of any action taken or to be taken in connection with the transactions contemplated thereby, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Company to perform under the terms of the Agreements.

The sale of each Mortgage Note and Mortgage as and in the manner contemplated by the Agreements is sufficient to fully transfer to the Purchaser all right, title and interest of the Company thereto as noteholder and mortgagee.

This opinion is given to you for your sole benefit, and no other person or entity is entitled to rely hereon except that the purchaser or purchasers to which you initially and directly resell the Mortgage Loans may rely on this opinion as if it were addressed to them as of its date.

Very truly yours,
