The Securities are to be secured by mortgage loans that have been sold or pledged to the Issuer by SRMSC (the "Mortgage Loans"). Collection of the scheduled principal and interest payments on the Mortgage Loans, plus pass-through payments of prepayments and liquidation proceeds, will be paid to the Trustee on behalf of the Issuer for the payment of the principal and interest on the Securities.

Under the terms of its Servicing Agreement, each Servicer has agreed to service the mortgage loans sold by it to SRMSC. To provide for the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loans that secure payment of the Securities, including the orderly and timely collection of scheduled payments of principal and interest and the advance of such payments by the Master Servicer to the extent recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, or subsequent payments by the Borrower, the Issuer and SRMSC, on behalf of itself or one of its subsidiaries, have retained the Master Servicer to act as a "master servicer" for all Mortgage Loans and to manage and supervise the administration and servicing of the Mortgage Loans by all Servicers for the benefit of the Issuer, SRMSC, the Trustee and the Securityholders.

Upon the request of a Servicer, the Master Servicer will not unreasonably withhold its consent to the transfer of the servicing obligations from such Servicer to another Servicer, provided, however, that the new Servicer executes a new Servicing Agreement whose servicing provisions are identical to the previous Servicing Agreement, and the new Servicer has been approved by the Master Servicer. Moreover, the Master Servicer agrees to maintain the Master Servicer Errors and Omissions Policy and the Master Servicer Fidelity Bond in full force and effect throughout the term of the Master Servicing Agreement. During the term of the Master Servicing Agreement the Master Servicer shall consult fully with each of the Servicers as may be necessary from time to time to perform and carry out the Master Servicer's obligations hereunder and receive, review and evaluate all reports, information and other data that are provided to the Master Servicer by each Servicer and otherwise exercise reasonable efforts to cause each Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by it under its Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.02 Termination of Servicing Agreements. ----------------------------------- If the Master Servicer or the Trustee terminates any Servicing Agreement with a Servicer, the Master Servicer, at its election, shall enter into a substitute servicing agreement with SRMSC, or arrange for another mortgage loan service company acceptable to it to do so, under which such mortgage loan service company or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, shall assume, satisfy, perform and carry out all liabilities, duties, responsibilities and obligations that are to be, or otherwise were to have been, satisfied, performed and carried out by the Servicer under such terminated Servicing Agreement, regardless whether such liabilities, duties, responsibilities or obligations shall have accrued before or after the termination of such Servicing Agreement, including but not limited to, the Servicer's obligations to purchase certain Mortgage Loans and any other liabilities or obligations of the Servicer arising from any breach by the Servicer of any representations and warranties contained in its Servicing Agreement causing a material impairment in the value of such Mortgage Loans. If the Master Servicer does not elect to enter into a substitute Servicing Agreement with SRMSC, the Master Servicer shall nevertheless assume, satisfy, perform and carry out all obligations which otherwise were to have -6- been satisfied, performed and carried out by the Servicer under such terminated Servicing Agreement until a substitute mortgage loan service company has been appointed and designated and a substitute Servicing Agreement has been entered into by SRMSC and such substitute Servicer. Section 3.03 Enforcement of "Due-on-Sale" Clauses; Assumption ------------------------------------------------ Agreements. ---------- (a) Enforcement. Each Servicing Agreement requires the Servicer to ----------- enforce any "due-on-sale clause" contained in any Note or Security Instrument to the extent that such enforcement is permissible by law and governmental regulation and will not adversely affect or jeopardize coverage under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or any Pool Insurance Policy; provided, however, that if the Servicer reasonably expects that the enforceability or legality of the "due-on-sale clause" will be litigated, the Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer and each Mortgage Insurer and obtain their written approval before initiating any enforcement proceedings. The Master Servicer shall grant such approval if, in its and its counsel's reasonable judgment, such enforcement is permissible by law and governmental regulation, will not adversely affect or jeopardize coverage under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or any Pool Insurance Policy and will not result in advances by or other expenses to the Servicer or the Master Servicer that are not recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan. (b) Assumptions. Subject to the limitation specified in Subsection 3.03(a) ----------- above and to such other limitations or conditions in the related Servicing Agreement, whenever a Mortgaged Premises is to be conveyed to a Person by a Borrower and the Person is to enter into an assumption agreement or modification agreement or supplement to the Note or the Security Instrument that requires the signature of the Trustee, or if an instrument of release signed by the Trustee is required to release the Borrower from liability on the Mortgage Loan, the Master Servicer shall obtain from the Servicer the assumption agreement with the Person to whom the Mortgage Premises is to be conveyed and such modification agreement or supplement to the Note or the Security Instrument or other instruments as are reasonable or necessary to carry out the terms of the Note or the Security Instrument or otherwise to comply with any applicable laws regarding assumptions and/or the transfer of the Mortgaged Premises to such Person, and deliver them to the Trustee for signature with a letter explaining the nature of such documents and the reason or reasons why the Trustee's signature is required. With such letter, the Master Servicer shall also deliver to the Trustee an Officer's Certificate from the applicable Servicer as provided in Section 741 of the Servicing Agreement. Upon the closing of the transactions contemplated by such documents, the Master Servicer shall cause the fully executed and duly recorded (where appropriate) originals of the assumption agreement, the release (if any) or the modification or supplement to the Note or the Security Instrument to be delivered to the Trustee or its agent and deposited in the Trustee Mortgage Loan File. Section 3.04 Release of Trustee Mortgage Loan Files. -------------------------------------- (a) Payments-in-Full. The Servicing Agreement requires that upon the ---------------- payment-in-full of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall deposit the proceeds thereof in the appropriate Custodial P & I Account maintained by the Servicer, and prepare and deliver to the Master Servicer with respect to the Security Instrument which secures the Note, a request for -7- reconveyance, deed or conveyance or release or satisfaction of the Security Instrument or other appropriate instrument releasing the Mortgaged Premises from the lien represented by the Security Instrument. In the event the Trustee Mortgage Loan File with respect to such Mortgage Loan is released, the Trustee or its agent shall send such Trustee Mortgage Loan File to the Servicer for recordation of the mortgage release or satisfaction in the proper recording office. (b) Release of Trustee Mortgage Loan File for Other Purposes. From time to -------------------------------------------------------- time as is appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan or the acquisition of Mortgaged Premises in lieu of foreclosure or for the making of any claim against or collection under any Mortgage Insurance Policy, Flood Insurance Policy, Hazard Insurance Policy, Mortgagor Bankruptcy Bond, the Special Hazard Insurance Policy, the Servicer Fidelity Bond, the Servicer Errors and Omissions Policy, or for purposes of effecting a partial release of any Mortgaged Premises from the lien of the Security Instrument or for making any corrections to the Note or the Security Instrument or other documents constituting the Trustee Mortgage Loan File, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, with a copy to the Issuer, (i) an officer's certificate of the Servicer, and shall certify as to the reason for such release and that such release will not invalidate the insurance coverage provided in respect to the Mortgage Loan under any of the foregoing insurance policies, and (ii) an executed Trust Receipt, executed by a Servicing Officer, designating whether the Trustee Mortgage File, or the part thereof requested, shall be released to the Master Servicer or the Servicer. Upon receipt of the foregoing, the Issuer will cause the Trustee or its agent to deliver to the Master Servicer, or the Servicer if the Master Servicer so requests, the Trustee Mortgage Loan File or documents so requested. Subject to the further limitations in this Section 3.04(b) below, the Master Servicer shall cause the Trustee Mortgage Loan File or documents so released to be returned to the Trustee or its agent when the need therefor by the Master Servicer or Servicer no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan is liquidated and the proceeds thereof are deposited in a Custodial P & I Account, in which case the Issuer shall cause the Trustee to deliver the Trust Receipt to the Master Servicer. If a Servicer at any time seeks to initiate a foreclosure proceeding in respect of any Mortgaged Premises as authorized by its Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee, for signature, as appropriate, any court pleadings, request for trustee's sale or other documents necessary to such foreclosure or to any legal action brought to obtain judgment against the Borrower on the Note or the Security Instrument or to obtain a deficiency judgment or to enforce any other remedies or rights provided by the Note or the Security Instrument or otherwise available at law or in equity. Together with such documents or pleadings, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee an officer's certificate of the Servicer requesting that such pleadings or documents be executed by the Trustee and a Servicing Officer shall certify as to the reason such documents or pleadings are required and that the execution and delivery thereof by the Trustee will not invalidate the insurance coverage under the Special Hazard Insurance Policy, Flood Insurance Policy (if any), or Mortgagor Bankruptcy Bond or invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Security Instrument except for the termination of such lien upon completion of the foreclosure. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer shall cause possession of any Trustee Mortgage Loan File or documents therein which have been released by the Trustee to be retained at all times by the Master Servicer or the Servicer, if appropriate, unless (i) the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in a Custodial P & I Account or (ii) the Trustee Mortgage Loan File or documents have been delivered to an attorney or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other -8- proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgage Premises and the Master Servicer has delivered to the Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which the Trustee Mortgage Loan File or documents were delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. Section 3.05 Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer ------------------------------------------------------------ to be Held for Trustee. ----------------------- Notwithstanding other provisions of the Master Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall transmit to the Trustee as required by the Master Servicing Agreement and the Servicing Agreement all documents and instruments coming into the possession of the Master Servicer from time to time and shall account fully to the Trustee and SRMSC for all funds received by the Master Servicer in the Master Custodial P & I Account or which otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan. All Trustee Mortgage Loan Files, Lender Mortgage Loan Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the Master Servicer in respect of any Mortgage Loans, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, including but not limited to, any funds on deposit in the Master Custodial P & I Account and in any Custodial P & I Account, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Trustee, SRMSC and the Securityholders and shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Trustee. The Master Servicer also agrees that it shall not create, incur or subject any Lender Mortgage Loan File, Trustee Mortgage Loan File or funds that are deposited in any Custodial P & I Account or Custodial T & I Reserve Account, in the Master Custodial P & I Account and or any funds that otherwise are or may become due or payable to the Trustee, to any claim, lien, security interest, judgment, levy, writ of attachment or other encumbrance, nor assert by legal action or otherwise any claim or right of set-off against any Lender Mortgage Loan File or Trustee Mortgage Loan File or any funds collected on, or in connection with, a Mortgage Loan except, however, that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to set-off against and deduct from any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer under this Agreement. The Master Servicer hereby acknowledges that concurrently with the execution of the Master Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall have acquired and shall hold a security interest in the Lender Mortgage Loan Files and Trustee Mortgage Loan Files (and in all Mortgage Loans represented by such Lender Mortgage Loan Files and Trustee Mortgage Loan Files) and in all funds now or hereafter held by, or under the control of, a Servicer or the Master Servicer that are collected by any Servicer or the Master Servicer in connection with the Mortgage Loans, whether as scheduled installments or principal or interest or as full or partial prepayments of principal or interest or as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, and in all proceeds of the foregoing and proceeds of proceeds (but excluding any Servicing Fees or other amounts to which the Servicer is entitled under its Servicing Agreement or the Master Servicer is entitled to under the Master Servicing Agreement); and the Master Servicer agrees that so long as the Mortgage Loans are assigned to and held by the Trustee, all lender Mortgage Loan Files and Trustee Mortgage Loan Files (and any documents or instruments constituting a part of such files) and such funds which come into the possession or custody of, or which are subject to the control of, the Master Servicer shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Trustee as the Trustee's agent and bailee for purposes of perfecting the Trustee's security interest therein as provided by the applicable uniform commercial code or other laws. -9- Section 3.06 Modification of Requirements to Servicing Provisions of the ----------------------------------------------------------- Servicing Agreement. -------------------- Subject to the prior written approval of the Issuer, SRMSC and the Trustee, the Master Servicer from time to time may issue to any Servicer, to the extent permitted by such Servicer's Servicing Agreement, such modifications and amendments to the Servicing Agreement that the Master Servicer deems necessary or appropriate to confirm or carry out more fully the intent and purpose of the Servicing Agreement and the duties, responsibilities and obligations to be performed by the Servicer thereunder. Such consents by the Issuer, SRMSC and the Trustee will not be unreasonably withheld. Prior to the issuance of any modification or amendment, the Master Servicer shall deliver to the Trustee, with a copy to the Issuer and SRMSC, an Officer's Certificate setting forth (i) the provision that is to be modified or amended, (ii) the modification or amendment that the Master Servicer desires to issue and (iii) the reason or reasons for such proposed amendment or modification.

(b) The execution and delivery by the Master Servicer of the Master Servicing Agreement is within the corporate power of the Master Servicer and has been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Master Servicer; and neither the execution and delivery of the Master Servicing Agreement by the Master Servicer, nor the consummation by the Master Servicer of the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions hereof by the Master Servicer, will (1) conflict with or result in a breach of, or will constitute a default under, any of the provisions of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws of the Master Servicer or any law, governmental rule or regulation, or any judgment, decree or order binding on the Master Servicer or its properties, or any of the provisions of any indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, contract or other instrument to which the Master Servicer is a party or by which it is bound or (2) result in the creation or imposition of any lien, charge or encumbrance upon any of its properties pursuant to the terms of any such indenture, mortgage, deed of trust, contract or other instrument.

If SRMSC does agree to pay an amount in excess of the cost of the original policy or bond, the Master Servicer shall structure the replacement policy or bond so that failure by SRMSC to pay such additional amount will not affect the amount of coverage obtainable for the cost of the original policy or bond.
