REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES

Section 2.01 Representations and Warranties Regarding the Master Servicer.

The Master Servicer represents and warrants to the Issuing Entity and for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage Loans and the Securityholders, as of the Cut-off Date and the Closing Date, that:

(i) The Master Servicer is a national banking association duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the Untied States of America and has the corporate power to own its assets and to transact the business in which it is currently engaged. The Master Servicer is duly qualified to do business as a foreign corporation and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the business transacted by it or properties owned or leased by it requires such qualification and in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, or condition (financial or other) of the Master Servicer or the validity or enforceability of this Master Servicing Agreement;

(ii) The Master Servicer has the power and authority to make, execute, deliver and perform this Master Servicing Agreement and all of the transactions contemplated under this Master Servicing Agreement, and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Master Servicing Agreement. When executed and delivered, this Master Servicing Agreement will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Master Servicer enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement of such terms may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by the availability of equitable remedies;

(iii) The Master Servicer is not required to obtain the consent of any other Person or any consent, license, approval or authorization from, or registration or declaration with, any governmental authority, bureau or agency in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Master Servicing Agreement, except for such consent, license, approval or authorization, or registration or declaration, as shall have been obtained or filed, as the case may be;

(iv) The execution and delivery of this Master Servicing Agreement and the performance of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Master Servicer will not violate any provision of any existing law or regulation or any order or decree of any court applicable to the Master Servicer or any provision of the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Master Servicer, or constitute a material breach of any mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement to which the Master Servicer is a party or by which the Master Servicer may be bound; and

(v) No litigation or administrative proceeding of or before any court, tribunal or governmental body is currently pending (other than litigation with respect to which pleadings or documents have been filed with a court, but not served on the Master Servicer), or to the knowledge of the Master Servicer threatened, against the Master Servicer or any of its properties or with respect to this Master Servicing Agreement or the Securities or the Trust Certificates which, to the knowledge of the Master Servicer, has a reasonable likelihood of resulting in a material adverse effect on the transactions contemplated by this Master Servicing Agreement.

The foregoing representations and warranties shall survive any termination of the Master Servicer hereunder.

Section 2.02 Existence.

The Issuing Entity will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuing Entity hereunder is or becomes, organized under the laws of any other state or of the United States of America, in which case the Issuing Entity will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Master Servicing Agreement.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OFMORTGAGE LOANS

Section 3.01 Master Servicer to Assure Servicing.

The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the obligations of the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall oversee and consult with the Servicer as necessary from time-to-time to carry out the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder, shall receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer by the Servicer and shall cause the Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by such Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall independently and separately monitor the Servicer’s servicing activities with respect to the Mortgage Loans, reconcile the results of such monitoring with such information provided in the previous sentence on a monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the Servicer’s and Master Servicer’s records, and based on such reconciled and corrected information, the Master Servicer shall provide such information to the Securities Administrator as shall be necessary in order for it to prepare the statements specified in Section 7.05 of the Indenture, and prepare any other information and statements required to be forwarded by the Master Servicer hereunder. The Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its Mortgage Loan monitoring with the actual remittances of the Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement.

In addition to the foregoing, in connection with a modification of any Mortgage Loan by a Servicer, if the Master Servicer is unable to enforce the obligations of the Servicer with respect to such modification, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor of such Servicer’s failure to comply with the terms of the Servicing Agreement or this Agreement. If the Servicing Agreement requires the approval of the Master Servicer for a modification to a Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall approve such modification if, based upon its receipt of written notification from the related Servicer outlining the terms of such modification and appropriate supporting documentation, the Master Servicer determines that the modification is permitted under the terms of the Servicing Agreement and that any conditions to such modification set forth in the Servicing Agreement or this Agreement have been satisfied. Furthermore, if the Servicing Agreement requires the oversight and monitoring of loss mitigation measures with respect to the related Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer will monitor any loss mitigation procedure or recovery action related to a defaulted Mortgage Loan (to the extent it receives notice of such from the related Servicer) and confirm that such loss mitigation procedure or recovery action is initiated, conducted and concluded in accordance with any timeframes and any other requirements set forth in the Servicing Agreement, and the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor in any case in which the Master Servicer believes that the related Servicer is not complying with such timeframes and/or other requirements.

The Indenture Trustee shall furnish the Servicer and the Master Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer and the Master Servicer to service and administer the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property. The Indenture Trustee shall not be liable for the Servicer’s or the Master Servicer’s use or misuse of such powers of attorney.

The Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable based on the requesting party, any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary or reasonably desirable to (i) the foreclosure or trustee’s sale with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment against the Mortgagor; or (iv) enforce any other rights or remedies provided by the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument or otherwise available at law or equity.

The relationship of the Master Servicer (and of any successor to the Master Servicer under this Master Servicing Agreement) to the Indenture Trustee under this Master Servicing Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent.

To the extent such matters are within the control of the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer may not consent to the placing of a lien senior to that of the Mortgage on the related Mortgaged Property.

To the extent such matters are within the control of the Master Servicer, notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection 3.01(a), the Master Servicer shall not take any action inconsistent with the interests of the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders or with the rights and interests of the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders under this Master Servicing Agreement.

The Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans, including but not limited to the power and authority (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Issuing Entity, Securityholders and the Indenture Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Master Servicing Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as applicable. The Indenture Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer, upon written request from a Servicing Officer, with any powers of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or the Servicer to execute and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with this Master Servicing Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, and the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, to enable the Master Servicer to master service and administer the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case in accordance with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Indenture Trustee shall have no liability for use or misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Indenture Trustee has been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is to be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Indenture Trustee or that the Indenture Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, the Master Servicer shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the appointment of a co-trustee.

Section 3.02 Monitoring of Servicer.

(a) The Master Servicer shall be responsible for reporting to the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and the Depositor the compliance by the Servicer with its duties under the Servicing Agreement. In the review of the Servicer’s activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an officer’s certificate of the Servicer (or similar document signed by an officer of the Servicer) with regard to such Servicer’s compliance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment, determines that the Servicer should be terminated in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to the Servicing Agreement with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall issue such notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate.

(b) The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Issuing Entity, the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders, shall enforce the obligations of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that the Servicer fails to perform its obligations in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer thereunder and act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or cause a successor Servicer selected by the Master Servicer to assume the obligations of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 100 days) before the actual servicing functions can be fully transferred to such successor Servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of the Servicing Agreement and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. Except as otherwise provided in Subsection (c) below, the Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to prosecute or defend any legal action except to the extent that the Master Servicer shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action.

(c) To the extent that the costs and expenses of the Master Servicer related to any termination of the Servicer, appointment of a successor Servicer or the transfer and assumption of servicing by the Master Servicer with respect to the Servicing Agreement (including, without limitation, (i) all legal costs and expenses and all due diligence costs and expenses associated with an evaluation of the potential termination of the Servicer as a result of an event of default by the Servicer and (ii) all costs and expenses associated with the complete transfer of servicing, including all servicing files and all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the successor servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the successor servicer to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the Servicing Agreement) are not fully and timely reimbursed by the terminated Servicer, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement of such costs and expenses from the Payment Account.

(d) The Master Servicer shall require the Servicer to comply with the remittance requirements and other obligations set forth in the Servicing Agreement.

(e) If the Master Servicer acts as Servicer, it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, if any, that it replaces.

Section 3.03 Fidelity Bond.

The Master Servicer, at its expense, shall maintain in effect a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording coverage with respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons acting on such Master Servicer’s behalf, and covering errors and omissions in the performance of the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder. The errors and omissions insurance policy and the fidelity bond shall be in such form and amount generally acceptable for entities serving as master servicers or trustees.

Section 3.04 Liability of the Master Servicer.

The Master Servicer shall be liable in accordance herewith only to the extent of the obligations specifically imposed upon and undertaken by it herein.

Section 3.05 Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreements by Indenture Trustee.

(a) If the Indenture Trustee, as successor Master Servicer, or another successor Master Servicer shall assume the master servicing obligations of the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 6.02 below, the Indenture Trustee, to the extent necessary to permit the Indenture Trustee to carry out the provisions of Section 6.02 with respect to the Mortgage Loans, shall succeed to all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. In such event, the Indenture Trustee or its designee as the successor master servicer shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s rights and obligations therein and to have replaced the Master Servicer as a party to such Servicing Agreement to the same extent as if such Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the Indenture Trustee or its designee as a successor master servicer, except that the Indenture Trustee or its designee as a successor master servicer shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligations or liabilities of the Master Servicer arising prior to such assumption (other than the obligation to make any Monthly Advances) and the Master Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under such Servicing Agreement arising prior to such assumption. Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to entitle the Indenture Trustee or its designee as a successor master servicer at any time to receive any portion of the servicing compensation provided under Section 3.15 except for the Master Servicer Compensation.

(b) In the event that the Indenture Trustee, as successor Master Servicer, or another successor Master Servicer assumes the servicing obligations of the Master Servicer under Section 6.02, upon the reasonable request of the Indenture Trustee or such successor Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall at its own expense (or the expense of the Trust, if the Master Servicer fails to do so) deliver to the Indenture Trustee, or to such successor Master Servicer, photocopies of all documents, files and records, electronic or otherwise, relating to the Servicing Agreement and the related Mortgage Loans or REO Property then being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it, if any, and will otherwise cooperate and use its reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Servicing Agreement, or responsibilities hereunder to the Indenture Trustee, as successor Master Servicer, or to such other successor Master Servicer.

Section 3.06 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.

(a) The Master Servicer will coordinate and monitor remittances by the Servicer to it with respect to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Master Servicing Agreement.

(b) The Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of the Servicer to establish and maintain a Protected Account in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, with records to be kept with respect thereto on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, into which account shall be deposited within 48 hours (or as of such other time specified in the Servicing Agreement) of receipt, all collections of principal and interest on any Mortgage Loan and any REO Property received by the Servicer, including Principal Prepayments, Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, and advances made from the Servicer’s own funds (less servicing compensation as permitted by the Servicing Agreement in the case of the Servicer) and all other amounts to be deposited in the Protected Account. The Servicer is hereby authorized to make withdrawals from and deposits to the Protected Account for purposes required or permitted by this Master Servicing Agreement. To the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement, the Protected Account shall be an Eligible Account and segregated on the books of such institution in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders.

(c) To the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement, amounts on deposit in the Protected Account may be invested in Eligible Investments in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of Securityholders and, except as provided in the preceding paragraph, not commingled with any other funds. Such Eligible Investments shall mature, or shall be subject to redemption or withdrawal, no later than the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn for deposit in the Payment Account, and shall be held until required for such deposit. The income earned from Eligible Investments made pursuant to this Section 3.06 shall be paid to the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, and the risk of loss of moneys required to be distributed to the Securityholders resulting from such investments shall be borne by and be the risk of the Servicer. The Servicer (to the extent required by the Servicing Agreement) shall deposit the amount of any such loss in the Protected Account not later than the Business Day prior to the next Servicer Remittance Date.

Section 3.07 [Reserved].

Section 3.08 [Reserved].

Section 3.09 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Mortgage Loans.

The Master Servicer shall provide, and shall cause the Servicer to provide, to the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee access to the documentation regarding the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property and to the Securityholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the FDIC access to the documentation regarding the related Mortgage Loans required by applicable regulations, such access being afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer or the Servicer that are designated by these entities; provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by law, the Master Servicer or the Servicer shall not be required to provide access to such documentation if the provision thereof would violate the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor; provided, further, however, that the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee shall coordinate their requests for such access so as not to impose an unreasonable burden on, or cause an unreasonable interruption of, the business of the Master Servicer or the Servicer. The Master Servicer and the Servicer shall allow representatives of the above entities to photocopy any of the documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that covers their own actual out-of-pocket costs.

(b) The Master Servicer shall include all annual statements of compliance received by it with its own annual statement of compliance to be submitted to the Securities Administrator pursuant to this Section.

(c) For so long as the Issuing Entity is subject to Exchange Act reporting requirements, failure of the Master Servicer to comply timely with this Section 3.16 shall be deemed a Master Servicing Default, automatically, without notice and without any cure period, and the Indenture Trustee shall, at the direction of the Sponsor, terminate all the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under this Master Servicing Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof without compensating the Master Servicer for the same.

(e) In the event the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Indenture Trustee or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by parties is terminated or resigns pursuant to the terms of this Agreement, or any applicable agreement in the case of a Servicing Function Participant, as the case may be, such party shall provide an Officer’s Certificate pursuant to this Section 3.16 with respect to the period of time it was subject to this Agreement or any other applicable agreement, as the case may be.

Section 3.17 Annual Assessments of Compliance.

(a) By March 15 of each year, commencing in March 2008, the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator, each at its own expense, shall furnish, and each such party shall cause any Servicing Function Participant engaged by it to furnish, each at its own expense, to the Securities Administrator and the Sponsor, a report on an assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria that contains (A) a statement by such party of its responsibility for assessing compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (B) a statement that such party used the Relevant Servicing Criteria to assess compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, (C) such party’s assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for the fiscal year covered by the Form 10-K required to be filed pursuant to Section 4.06(d), including, if there has been any material instance of noncompliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria, a discussion of each such failure and the nature and status thereof, and (D) a statement that a registered public accounting firm has issued an attestation report on such party’s assessment of compliance with the Relevant Servicing Criteria as of and for such period.

When the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator (or any Servicing Function Participant engaged by them) submit their assessments to the Securities Administrator, such parties shall also at such time include the assessment (and attestation pursuant to Section 3.18) of each Servicing Function Participant engaged by it.

The Master Servicer shall have no claim (whether by subrogation or otherwise) or other action against any Securityholder for any amounts paid by the Master Servicer pursuant to any provision of this Master Servicing Agreement. Any resignation of the Master Servicer shall result in the automatic resignation of the Securities Administrator.

Section 5.05 Delegation of Duties.

In the ordinary course of business, the Master Servicer at any time may delegate any of its duties hereunder to any Person, including any of its Affiliates, who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with standards comparable to those with which the Master Servicer complies pursuant to Section 3.01. Such delegation shall not relieve the Master Servicer of its liabilities and responsibilities with respect to such duties and shall not constitute a resignation within the meaning of Section 5.04.

Section 5.06 Indemnification.

The Master Servicer agrees to indemnify the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator and Owner Trustee (each an “Indemnified Person”) for, and to hold them harmless against, any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred on their part that may be sustained in connection with, arising out of, or relating to, any claim or legal action (including any pending or threatened claim or legal action) relating to this Master Servicing Agreement (i) related to the Master Servicer’s failure to perform its duties in material compliance with this Master Servicing Agreement (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Master Servicing Agreement) or (ii) incurred by reason of the Master Servicer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder, provided, in each case, that with respect to any such claim or legal action (or pending or threatened claim or legal action), the Indemnified Person shall have given the Master Servicer and the Depositor written notice thereof promptly after such Indemnified Person shall have with respect to such claim or legal action knowledge thereof. The Master Servicer’s failure to receive any such notice shall not affect an Indemnified Persons’ right to indemnification hereunder, except to the extent the Master Servicer is materially prejudiced by such failure to give notice. This indemnity shall survive the resignation or removal of the Indenture Trustee, Owner Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Master Servicer and the termination of this Master Servicing Agreement.

Section 5.07 Patriot Act.

In order to comply with its duties under the USA Patriot Act of 2001, the Indenture Trustee shall obtain and verify certain information and documentation from the other parties to this Master Servicing Agreement including, but not limited to, each such party’s name, address and other identifying information.

ARTICLE VI

DEFAULT

Section 6.01 Master Servicing Default.

If any one of the following events (each, a “Master Servicing Default”) shall occur and be continuing:

(i) The Master Servicer fails to deposit in the Payment Account any amount required to be deposited by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Master Servicing Agreement (other than a Monthly Advance), and such failure continues unremedied for a period of three Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer; or

(ii) The Master Servicer fails to observe or perform in any material respect any other material covenants and agreements set forth in this Master Servicing Agreement to be performed by it, which covenants and agreements materially affect the rights of Securityholders, and such failure continues unremedied for a period of 60 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, properly requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer by the Indenture Trustee or to the Master Servicer and the Indenture Trustee by the Holders of Securities aggregating at least 25% of the Note Principal Balance or Certificate Principal Balance, as applicable, of the Securities; or

(iii) There is entered against the Master Servicer a decree or order by a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction in the premises for the appointment of a conservator, receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, and the continuance of any such decree or order is unstayed and in effect for a period of 60 consecutive days, or an involuntary case is commenced against the Master Servicer under any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute and the petition is not dismissed within 60 days after the commencement of the case; or

(iv) The Master Servicer consents to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Master Servicer or substantially all of its property; or the Master Servicer admits in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, files a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, makes an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspends payment of its obligations;

(v) The Master Servicer assigns or delegates its duties or rights under this Master Servicing Agreement in contravention of the provisions permitting such assignment or delegation under Section 5.04; or

(vi) The Master Servicer fails to deposit in the Payment Account any Monthly Advance (other than a Nonrecoverable Advance) required to be made by it, and such failure continues unremedied for a period of one Business Day after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Master Servicer.

then, and in every such case, so long as a Master Servicing Default shall not have been remedied by the Master Servicer, either the Indenture Trustee or the holders of at least 51% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance or Certificate Principal Balance, as applicable, of each Class of Securities may, or may direct the Indenture Trustee to, by written notice then given to the Master Servicer, terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer as master servicer under this Master Servicing Agreement other than its right to receive master servicing compensation and expenses for master servicing the Mortgage Loans hereunder during any period prior to the date of such termination and the Indenture Trustee, subject to written notice to the Issuing Entity may exercise any and all other remedies available at law or equity. Any such notice to the Master Servicer shall also be given to each Rating Agency, the Company and the Issuing Entity. On or after the receipt by the Master Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Master Servicing Agreement, whether with respect to the Securities or the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee, as successor Master Servicer, pursuant to and under this Section 6.01; and, without limitation, the Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer, as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments, and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties hereto and the Securityholders by their acceptance of any Security, acknowledge and agree that there will be a period of transition before the actual master servicing functions can be fully transferred to the Indenture Trustee, as successor Master Servicer, or to a successor Master Servicer appointed by the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the provisions hereof, provided, that the Indenture Trustee shall use its reasonable best efforts to succeed to the actual master servicing functions or find a successor Master Servicer as soon as possible but no later than 90 days after such termination; provided, that the Indenture Trustee shall continue to have the right to appoint a successor Master Servicer after such 90-day period in accordance with Section 6.02. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Indenture Trustee in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Master Servicer hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Indenture Trustee or other successor Master Servicer for administration by it of (i) originals or copies of all documents of the Master Servicer reasonably requested by the Indenture Trustee to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s duties thereunder and under the Servicing Agreement; (ii) the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer under the Servicing Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loans; (iii) all cash amounts which shall at the time be deposited by the Master Servicer or required to have been deposited by it to the Payment Account pursuant to this Master Servicing Agreement or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans; and (iv) all costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the Indenture Trustee or any successor Master Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Indenture Trustee or other successor Master Servicer to master service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively. All reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Indenture Trustee or a successor Master Servicer in connection with its succession as Master Servicer, including amending this Master Servicing Agreement to reflect such succession as Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 6.01 shall be paid by the predecessor Master Servicer (or if the predecessor Master Servicer is the Indenture Trustee, the terminated Master Servicer) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses, and if not so paid by the predecessor Master Servicer, shall be reimbursed by the Issuing Entity pursuant to Section 6.07 of the Indenture.

Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of the Master Servicer hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of any late collection of a payment on a Mortgage Loan which was due prior to the notice terminating the Master Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder and received after such notice, that portion to which the Master Servicer would have been entitled pursuant to Sections 3.07 and 3.15, and any other amounts payable to the Master Servicer hereunder the entitlement to which arose prior to the termination of its activities hereunder.

The Master Servicer shall immediately notify the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee in writing of any Master Servicing Default hereunder.

Section 6.02 Indenture Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor.

(a) Within 90 days of the time the Master Servicer sends a notice pursuant to Section 5.04, the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Securityholders, or other successor appointed in accordance with this Section 6.02, shall become the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity as Master Servicer under this Master Servicing Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, including but not limited to the provisions of Article V. Nothing in this Master Servicing Agreement shall be construed to permit or require the Indenture Trustee or any other successor Master Servicer to (i) be responsible or accountable for any act or omission of the predecessor Master Servicer, (ii) fund any losses on any Eligible Investment directed by any other Master Servicer, or (iii) be responsible for the representations and warranties of the Master Servicer, except as provided herein; provided, however, that the Indenture Trustee, as successor Master Servicer, shall be required to make any Monthly Advances to the extent that the Master Servicer failed to make such Monthly Advances, to the extent such Monthly Advance is not determined by the Indenture Trustee to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. As compensation therefor, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to such compensation as the Master Servicer would have been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination had been given. Notwithstanding the above, (i) if the Indenture Trustee is unwilling to act as successor Master Servicer, or (ii) if the Indenture Trustee is legally unable so to act, the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Securityholders may (in the situation described in clause (i)) or shall (in the situation described in clause (ii)) appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage loan servicer having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 as the successor to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided that the appointment of any such successor Master Servicer will not result in the qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the ratings assigned to the applicable Securities by the Rating Agencies (as evidenced by a letter to such effect delivered by the Rating Agencies). Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, unless the Indenture Trustee is prohibited by law from so acting or is unwilling to act as such, the Indenture Trustee shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the successor shall be entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the compensation which the Master Servicer would otherwise have received pursuant to Section 3.15 (or such lesser compensation as the Indenture Trustee and such successor shall agree). The appointment of a successor Master Servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Master Servicer which may have arisen under this Master Servicing Agreement prior to its termination as Master Servicer (including, without limitation, the obligation to indemnify the Indenture Trustee pursuant to Section 5.06), nor shall any successor Master Servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Master Servicer or for any breach by such Master Servicer of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any related document or agreement. The Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Master Servicing Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

(b) Any successor, including the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Securityholders, to the Master Servicer as master servicer shall during the term of its service as master servicer shall (i) continue to master service and administer the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of the Securityholders, and (ii) maintain in force a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations as Master Servicer hereunder and a fidelity bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same extent as the Master Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.03.

(c) Any successor Master Servicer, including the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Securityholders, shall not be deemed to be in default or to have breached its duties hereunder if the predecessor Master Servicer shall fail to deliver any required deposit to the Payment Account or otherwise cooperate with any required servicing transfer or succession hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Indenture Trustee be liable for any master servicing fee or any differential in the amount of the master servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor Master Servicer to act as a successor Master Servicer under this Master Servicing Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein.

Section 6.03 Notification to Securityholders.

Upon any termination or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer pursuant to this Article VI or Section 5.04, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to the Securityholders, the Owner Trustee, the Company, the Issuing Entity and the Rating Agencies.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Defaults.

The Indenture Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Securityholders, within 10 days after the occurrence of any Master Servicing Default known to the Indenture Trustee, unless such Master Servicing Default shall have been cured, notice of each such Master Servicing Default hereunder of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee has actual knowledge. The holders of at least 51% of the aggregate Note Principal Balance or Certificate Principal Balance, as applicable, of each Class of the Securities may waive any default by the Master Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consequences thereof, except a default in the making of or the causing to be made any required distribution on the Notes. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall be deemed to cease to exist, and any Master Servicing Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been timely remedied for every purpose of this Master Servicing Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived. The Master Servicer shall give notice of any such waiver to the Rating Agencies.

ARTICLE VII
