The Depositor has acquired the Mortgage Loans from the Seller, and at the Closing Date is the owner of the Mortgage Loans and the other property being conveyed by it to the Trustee hereunder for inclusion in the Trust Fund.  On the Closing Date, the Depositor will acquire the Certificates from the Trust Fund, as consideration for its transfer to the Trust Fund of the Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust Fund.  The Depositor has duly authorized the execution and delivery of this Agreement to provide for the conveyance to the Trustee of the Mortgage Loans and the other property constituting the Trust Fund.  All covenants and agreements made by the Seller in the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement and by the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Trustee herein with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the other property constit uting the Trust Fund are for the benefit of the Holders from time to time of the Certificates and, to the extent provided herein, any NIMS Insurer.  The Depositor, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the Credit Risk Manager are entering into this Agreement, and the Trustee is accepting the Trust Fund created hereby, for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency of which are hereby acknowledged.

As provided herein, the Trustee shall elect that the Trust Fund (exclusive of (i) the Basis Risk Reserve Fund, and (ii) the Cap Agreement (collectively, the “Excluded Trust Property”) be treated for federal income tax purposes as comprising two real estate mortgage investment conduits (each a “REMIC” or, in the alternative, REMIC 1and REMIC 2; REMIC 2 also being referred to as the “Upper Tier REMIC”).  Each Certificate, other than the Class X Certificates and the Class R Certificate represents ownership of a regular interest in the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.  The Class X Certificates represent ownership of two regular interests in the Upper Tier REMIC as described in note 25 of the table below for such REMIC.  In addition, each Certificate, other than the Class R, Class X and Class P Certificates, represents the right to receive payments with respect to any Basis Risk Shortfalls and Unpaid Basis Risk Shortfalls from the Basis Risk Reserve Fund pursuant to Section 5.06.  The Class R Certificate represents ownership of the sole Class of residual interest in each of REMIC 1 and the Upper Tier REMIC for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.

The Upper Tier REMIC shall hold as its assets the several Classes of uncertificated Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1, and each such Lower Tier Interest is hereby designated as a regular interest in REMIC 1 for purposes of the REMIC Provisions.  REMIC 1 shall hold as its assets the property of the Trust Fund other than the Lower Tier Interests in REMIC 1 and the Excluded Trust Property.

Subordinate Certificate:  Any Class M, Class B1, Class B2 or Class X Certificate.

Subordinate Net Funds Cap:  With respect to any Distribution Date will equal the weighted average of the Net Funds Cap for each Mortgage Pool, weighted on the basis of the Pool Subordinate Amount for each Mortgage Pool; provided, however, on any Distribution Date after which the Class Principal Amounts of the Senior Certificates related to any four Mortgage Pools have been reduced to zero, such weighing shall be on the basis of the Pool Balance for each Mortgage Pool; provided, further, in determining the Subordinate Net Funds Cap with respect to the Class B2 Certificates, clause (b) in the definition of Net Funds Cap shall be equal to 1.

The establishment of Three-Month LIBOR by the Securities Administrator and the Securities Administrator’s subsequent calculation of the Certificate Interest Rate applicable to the Three-Month LIBOR Certificates, for the relevant Accrual Period, in the absence of manifest error, will be final and binding.

Three-Month LIBOR Certificate:  Any Class A11 Certificate.

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor does hereby assign to the Trustee all of its rights and interest under the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, including all rights of the Seller under each Servicing Agreement and the Transfer Agreements, but only to the extent assigned under the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement.  The Trustee hereby accepts such assignment, and shall be entitled to exercise all the rights of the Depositor under the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement as if, for such purpose, it were the Depositor.

Section 2.02

Acceptance of Trust Fund by Trustee: Review of Documentation for Trust Fund.  

(a)

The Trustee, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt by it or by the applicable Custodian on its behalf of the Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, subject to review thereof by the Trustee, or by the applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, under this Section 2.02.  The Trustee, or the applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, will execute and deliver to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer on the Closing Date an Initial Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B-1 (or in the form annexed to the applicable Custodial Agreement as Exhibit B-1, as applicable).

(b)

Within 45 days after the Closing Date, the Trustee or the applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, will, for the benefit of Holders of the Certificates, review each Mortgage File to ascertain that all required documents set forth in Section 2.01 have been received and appear on their face to contain the requisite signatures by or on behalf of the respective parties thereto, and shall deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and any NIMS Insurer an Interim Certification in the form annexed hereto as Exhibit B-2 (or in the form annexed to the applicable Custodial Agreement as Exhibit B-2, as applicable) to the effect that, as to each Mortgage Loan listed in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (other than any Mortgage Loan prepaid in full or any Mortgage Loan specifically identified in such certification as not covered by such certification), (i) all of the applicable doc uments specified in Section 2.01(b) are in its possession and (ii) such documents have been reviewed by it and appear to relate to such Mortgage Loan.  The Trustee, or the applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, shall determine whether such documents are executed and endorsed, but shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine any such documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are valid, binding, legally effective, properly endorsed, genuine, enforceable or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or are in recordable form or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face. Neither the Trustee nor any applicable Custodian shall have any responsibility for verifying the genuineness or the legal effectiveness of or authority for any signatures of or on behalf of any party or endorser.

(c)

If in the course of the review described in paragraph (b) above the Trustee or the applicable Custodian discovers any document or documents constituting a part of a Mortgage File that is missing, does not appear regular on its face (i.e., is mutilated, damaged, defaced, torn or otherwise physically altered) or appears to be unrelated to the Mortgage Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (each, a “Material Defect”), the Trustee, or the applicable Custodian on behalf of the Trustee, discovering such Material Defect shall promptly identify the Mortgage Loan to which such Material Defect relates in the Interim Certification delivered to the Depositor and the Master Servicer.  Within 90 days of its receipt of such notice, the Transferor, or, if the Transferor does not do so, the Depositor shall be required to cure such Material Defect (and, in such event, th e Depositor shall provide the Trustee with an Officer’s Certificate confirming that such cure has been effected).  If the applicable Transferor or the Depositor, as applicable, does not so cure such Material Defect, the Transferor, or, if the Transferor does not do so, the Depositor, shall, if a loss has been incurred with respect to such Mortgage Loan that would, if such Mortgage Loan were not purchased from the Trust Fund, constitute a Realized Loss, and such loss is attributable to the failure of the Depositor to cure such Material Defect, repurchase the related Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Purchase Price.  A loss shall be deemed to be attributable to the failure of the Depositor to cure a Material Defect if, as determined by the Depositor, upon mutual agreement with the Trustee each acting in good faith, absent such Material Defect, such loss would not have been incurred.  Within the two-year period following the Closing Date, the Depositor may, in lieu of repurchasing a M ortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.02, substitute for such Mortgage Loan a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan subject to the provisions of Section 2.05.  The failure of the Trustee or the applicable Custodian to give the notice contemplated herein within 45 days after the Closing Date shall not affect or relieve the Depositor of its obligation to repurchase any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.02 or any other Section of this Agreement requiring the repurchase of Mortgage Loans from the Trust Fund.

(d)

Within 180 days following the Closing Date, the Trustee, or the applicable Custodian, shall deliver to the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer and any NIMS Insurer a Final Certification substantially in the form attached as Exhibit B-3 (or in the form annexed to the applicable Custodial Agreement as Exhibit B-3, as applicable) evidencing the completeness of the Mortgage Files in its possession or control, with any exceptions noted thereto.

(e)

(f)

Each of the parties hereto acknowledges that the applicable Custodian shall perform the applicable review of the Mortgage Loans and respective certifications thereof as provided in this Section 2.02 and the Custodial Agreement.

With respect to any Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement, by the Seller pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement or by the Transferor pursuant to the applicable Transfer Agreement, the principal portion of the funds received by the Trustee in respect of such repurchase of a Mortgage Loan will be considered a Principal Prepayment and the Purchase Price shall be deposited in the Collection Account or a Custodial Account, as applicable.  The Trustee (i) upon receipt of the full amount of the Purchase Price for a Deleted Mortgage Loan, (ii) upon receipt of a written certification from the Master Servicer that it has received the full amount of the Purchase Price for a Deleted Mortgage Loan and has deposited such amount in the Collection Account or (iii) upon receipt of notification from the related Custodian that it had received the Mortgage File for a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan substituted for a Deleted Mortgage Loan (and any applicable Substitution Amount), shall release or cause to be released and reassign to the Depositor, the Seller or the Transferor, as applicable, the related Mortgage File for the Deleted Mortgage Loan and shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, representation or warranty, as shall be necessary to vest in such party or its designee or assignee title to any Deleted Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto, free and clear of all security interests, liens and other encumbrances created by this Agreement, which instruments shall be prepared by the related Servicer and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility with respect to the Mortgage File relating to such Deleted Mortgage Loan.  The Seller indemnifies and holds the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Depositor, and NIMS Insurer and each Certificateholder harmless against any and all taxes, claims, losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Depositor, any NIMS Insurer and any Certificateholder may sustain in connection with any actions of such Seller relating to a repurchase of a Mortgage Loan other than in compliance with the terms of this Section 2.05 and the Mortgage Loan Sale Agreement, to the extent that any such action causes an Adverse REMIC Event.

(b)

With respect to each Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan to be delivered to the Trustee (or its Custodian) pursuant to the terms of this Article II in exchange for a Deleted Mortgage Loan:  (i) the Depositor, the Transferor or the Seller, as applicable, must deliver to the Trustee (or a Custodian) the Mortgage File for the Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan containing the documents set forth in Section 2.01(b) along with a written certification certifying as to the delivery of such Mortgage File and containing granting language substantially comparable to that set forth in the first paragraph of Section 2.01(a); and (ii) the Depositor will be deemed to have made, with respect to such Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan, each of the representations and warranties made by it with respect to the related Deleted Mortgage Loan.  As soon as practicable after the delivery of any Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan hereunder, the Master Servicer, at the expense of the Depositor and at the direction and with the cooperation of the applicable Servicer, shall (i) with respect to a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a Non-MERS Mortgage Loan, cause the Assignment of Mortgage to be recorded by the applicable Servicer if required pursuant to Section 2.01(c), or (ii) with respect to a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan that is a MERS Mortgage Loan, cause to be taken such actions as are necessary to cause the Trustee to be clearly identified as the owner of each such Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS if required pursuant to Section 2.01(c).

(c)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the right to substitute Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Article II shall be subject to the additional limitations that no substitution of a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan for a Deleted Mortgage Loan shall be made unless the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer has received an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (at the expense of the party seeking to make the substitution) that, under current law, such substitution will not cause an Adverse REMIC Event.

Section 2.06

Grant Clause.  

(a)

It is intended that the conveyance of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in and to property constituting the Trust Fund pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute, and shall be construed as, a sale of such property and not a grant of a security interest to secure a loan.  However, if such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan, it is intended that:  (1) the rights and obligations of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (2) the Depositor hereby grants to the Trustee for the benefit of the Holders of the Certificates a first priority security interest to secure repayment of an obligation in an amount equal to the aggregate Class Principal Amount of the Certificates in all of the Depositor’s right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, the Trust Fund and all proceeds of any and all property constituting the Trust Fund to secure payment of the Certificates; and (3) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.  If such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan and the trust created by this Agreement terminates prior to the satisfaction of the claims of any Person holding any Certificate, the security interest created hereby shall continue in full force and effect and the Trustee shall be deemed to be the collateral agent for the benefit of such Person, and all proceeds shall be distributed as herein provided.

(b)

The Depositor shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such reasonable actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans and the other property described above, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and shall be maintained as such throughout the term of this Agreement.  The Depositor shall, at its own expense, make all initial filings on or about the Closing Date and shall forward a copy of such filing or filings to the Trustee.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Depositor shall prepare and forward for filing, or shall cause to be forwarded for filing, at the expense of the Depositor, all filings necessary to maintain the effectiveness of any original filings necessary under the relevant UCC to perfect the Trustee’s security interest in or lien on the Mortgage Loans, including without limitation (x) continuation statements, and (y) such other statements as may be occasioned by (1) any change of name of the Seller, the Depositor or the Trustee, (2) any change of location of the jurisdiction of organization of the Seller or the Depositor, (3) any transfer of any interest of the Seller or the Depositor in any Mortgage Loan or (4) any change under the relevant UCC or other applicable laws.  Neither the Seller nor the Depositor shall organize under the law of any jurisdiction other than the State under which each is organized as of the Closing Date (whether changing its jurisdiction of organization or organizing under an additional jurisdiction) without giving 30 days prior written notice of such action to its immediate and intermediate transferee, including the Trustee.  Before effecting such change, the Seller or the Depositor proposing to change its jurisdiction of organization shall prepare and file in the appropriate filing office any financing statements or other statements necessary to continue the perfection of the interests of its immediate and intermediate transferees, including the Trustee, in the Mortgage Loans.  In connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, each of the Seller and the Depositor authorizes its immediate or intermediate transferee to file in any filing office any initial financing statements, any amendments to financing statements, any continuation statements, or any other statements or filings described in this paragraph (b).

ARTICLE III

THE CERTIFICATES

Section 3.01

The Certificates.  

(a)

The Certificates shall be issuable in registered form only and shall be securities governed by Article 8 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code.  The Book-Entry Certificates will be evidenced by one or more certificates, beneficial ownership of which will be held in the dollar denominations in Certificate Principal Amount or in the Percentage Interests, specified herein.  Each Class of Book-Entry Certificates will be issued in the minimum denominations in Certificate Principal Amount specified in the Preliminary Statement hereto and in integral multiples of $1 in excess thereof.  The Class P and Class X Certificates shall each be maintained in definitive, fully registered form in the minimum denomination specified in the Preliminary Statement hereto.  The Class R Certificate shall be issued as a single Certificate and maintained in definitive, fully registered fo rm in a minimum denomination equal to 100% of the Percentage Interest of such Class.  The Certificates may be issued in the form of typewritten certificates.  

(b)

The Certificates shall be executed by manual or facsimile signature on behalf of the Trustee by an authorized officer.  Each Certificate shall, on original issue, be authenticated by the Trustee upon the order of the Depositor upon receipt by the Trustee of the Mortgage Files described in Section 2.01.  No Certificate shall be entitled to any benefit under this Agreement, or be valid for any purpose, unless there appears on such Certificate a certificate of authentication substantially in the form provided for herein, executed by an authorized officer of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent, if any, by manual signature, and such certification upon any Certificate shall be conclusive evidence, and the only evidence, that such Certificate has been duly authenticated and delivered hereunder.  All Certificates shall be dated the date of their authentication.  At an y time and from time to time after the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Depositor may deliver Certificates executed by the Depositor to the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent for authentication and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver such Certificates as in this Agreement provided and not otherwise.

Section 3.02

Registration.  

The Trustee is hereby appointed, and hereby accepts its appointment as, Certificate Registrar in respect of the Certificates and shall maintain books for the registration and for the transfer of Certificates (the “Certificate Register”).  The Trustee may appoint a bank or trust company to act as Certificate Registrar.  A registration book shall be maintained for the Certificates collectively.  The Certificate Registrar may resign or be discharged or removed and a new successor may be appointed in accordance with the procedures and requirements set forth in Sections 6.06 and 6.07 hereof with respect to the resignation, discharge or removal of the Trustee and the appointment of a successor Trustee.  The Certificate Registrar may appoint, by a written instrument delivered to the Holders, any NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer, any bank or trust company to act as co-registrar under such conditions as the Certificate Registrar may prescribe; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall not be relieved of any of its duties or responsibilities hereunder by reason of such appointment.

Section 3.03

Transfer and Exchange of Certificates.  

(a)

A Certificate (other than a Book-Entry Certificate which shall be subject to Section 3.09 hereof) may be transferred by the Holder thereof only upon presentation and surrender of such Certificate at the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by an assignment duly executed by such Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as shall be satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar.  Upon the transfer of any Certificate in accordance with the preceding sentence, the Trustee shall execute, and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver to the transferee, one or more new Certificates of the same Class and evidencing, in the aggregate, the same aggregate Certificate Principal Amount or Percentage Interest as the Certificate being transferred.  No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder for any registration of transfer of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any registration of transfer of Certificates.

(b)

A Certificate may be exchanged by the Holder thereof for any number of new Certificates of the same Class, in authorized denominations, representing in the aggregate the same Certificate Principal Amount or Percentage Interest as the Certificate surrendered, upon surrender of the Certificate to be exchanged at the office of the Certificate Registrar duly endorsed or accompanied by a written instrument of transfer duly executed by such Holder or his duly authorized attorney in such form as is satisfactory to the Certificate Registrar.  Certificates delivered upon any such exchange will evidence the same obligations, and will be entitled to the same rights and privileges, as the Certificates surrendered.  No service charge shall be made to a Certificateholder for any exchange of Certificates, but the Certificate Registrar may require payment of a sum sufficient to cover any t ax or governmental charge that may be imposed in connection with any exchange of Certificates.  Whenever any Certificates are so surrendered for exchange, the Trustee shall execute, and the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent shall authenticate, date and deliver the Certificates which the Certificateholder making the exchange is entitled to receive.

(c)

By acceptance of a Restricted Certificate, whether upon original issuance or subsequent transfer, each Holder of such a Certificate acknowledges the restrictions on the transfer of such Certificate set forth thereon and agrees that it will transfer such a Certificate only as provided herein.

The following restrictions shall apply with respect to the transfer and registration of transfer of a Restricted Certificate to a transferee that takes delivery in the form of a Definitive Certificate:

(i)

The Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate if the requested transfer is (x) to the Depositor or the Placement Agent, an affiliate (as defined in Rule 405 under the 1933 Act) of the Depositor or the Placement Agent or (y) being made to a “qualified institutional buyer” (a “QIB”) as defined in Rule 144A under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”) by a transferor that has provided the Trustee with a certificate in the form of Exhibit F hereto; and

(ii)

The Certificate Registrar shall register the transfer of a Restricted Certificate if the requested transfer is being made to an “accredited investor” under Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) under the Act, or to any Person all of the equity owners in which are such accredited investors, by a transferor who furnishes to the Trustee a letter of the transferee substantially in the form of Exhibit G hereto.

(d)

No transfer of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate in the form of a Definitive Certificate shall be made to any Person unless the Trustee has received (A) a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit H hereto (or Exhibit D-1, in the case of a Residual Certificate) from such transferee or (B) an Opinion of Counsel satisfactory to the Trustee, to the effect that the purchase and holding of such a Certificate will not constitute or result in prohibited transactions under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code and will not subject the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Servicer, the Securities Administrator, any NIMS Insurer or the Depositor to any obligation in addition to those undertaken in the Agreement; provided, however, that the Trustee will not require such certificate or opinion in the event that, as a result of a change of law or otherwise, counsel satisfactory to the Trustee, has rendered an opinion to the effect that the purchase and holding of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate by a Plan or a Person that is purchasing or holding such a Certificate with the assets of a Plan will not constitute or result in a prohibited transaction under Title I of ERISA or Section 4975 of the Code.  Each Transferee of an ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is a Book-Entry Certificate shall be deemed to have made the representations set forth in Exhibit H.  The preparation and delivery of the certificate and opinions referred to above shall not be an expense of the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Master Servicer, any Servicer, the Securities Administrator, any NIMS Insurer or the Depositor.

Notwithstanding the foregoing, no opinion or certificate shall be required for the initial issuance of the ERISA-Restricted Certificates.  The Trustee shall have no obligation to monitor transfers of Book-Entry Certificates that are ERISA-Restricted Certificates and shall have no liability for transfers of such Certificates in violation of the transfer restrictions.  The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 3.03(d) or for making any payments due on such Certificate to the Holder thereof or taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered by the Trustee in accordance with the foregoing requirements.  The Trustee shall be entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of any ERISA-Restricted Certificate that was in fact a Plan or a Person acting on behalf of any such Plan any payments made on such ERISA-Restricted Certificate at and after either such time.  Any such payments so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered by the Trustee to the last preceding Holder of such Certificate that is not such a Plan or Person acting on behalf of a Plan.

(e)

As a condition of the registration of transfer or exchange of any Certificate, the Certificate Registrar may require the certified taxpayer identification number of the owner of the Certificate and the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge imposed in connection therewith; provided, however, that the Certificate Registrar shall have no obligation to require such payment or to determine whether or not any such tax or charge may be applicable.  No service charge shall be made to the Certificateholder for any registration, transfer or exchange of a Certificate.

(f)

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, no Residual Certificate may be owned, pledged or transferred, directly or indirectly, by or to (i) a Disqualified Organization or (ii) an individual, corporation or partnership or other person unless such person is (A) not a Non-U.S. Person or (B) is a Non-U.S. Person that holds a Residual Certificate in connection with the conduct of a trade or business within the United States and has furnished the transferor and the Trustee with an effective Internal Revenue Service W-8ECI or successor form at the time and in the manner required by the Code (any such person who is not covered by clause (A) or (B) above is referred to herein as a “Non-permitted Foreign Holder”).

Prior to and as a condition of the registration of any transfer, sale or other disposition of a Residual Certificate, the proposed transferee shall deliver to the Trustee an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-1 representing and warranting, among other things, that such transferee is neither a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee acting on behalf of a Disqualified Organization, nor a Non-Permitted Foreign Holder (any such transferee, a “Permitted Transferee”), and the proposed transferor shall deliver to the Trustee an affidavit in substantially the form attached hereto as Exhibit D-2.  In addition, the Trustee may (but shall have no obligation to) require, prior to and as a condition of any such transfer, the delivery by the proposed transferee of an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securit ies Administrator, any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee satisfactory in form and substance to the Depositor, that such proposed transferee or, if the proposed transferee is an agent or nominee, the proposed beneficial owner, is not a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or a Non-Permitted Foreign Holder.  Notwithstanding the registration in the Certificate Register of any transfer, sale, or other disposition of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualified Organization, an agent or nominee thereof, or Non-Permitted Foreign Holder, such registration shall be deemed to be of no legal force or effect whatsoever and such Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-Permitted Foreign Holder shall not be deemed to be a Certificateholder for any purpose hereunder, including, but not limited to, the receipt of distributions on such Residual Certificate.  The Trustee shall not be under any liability to any person for any registration or transfer of a Residual Certificate to a Disqualif ied Organization, agent or nominee thereof or Non-permitted Foreign Holder or for the maturity of any payments due on such Residual Certificate to the Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of the Agreement, so long as the transfer was effected in accordance with this Section 3.03(f), unless a Responsible Officer of the Trustee shall have actual knowledge at the time of such transfer or the time of such payment or other action that the transferee is a Disqualified Organization, or an agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder.  The Trustee shall be entitled, but not obligated, to recover from any Holder of a Residual Certificate that was a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder at the time it became a Holder or any subsequent time it became a Disqualified Organization, agent or nominee thereof, or Non-permitted Foreign Holder, all payments made on such Residual Certificate at and after ei ther such times (and all costs and expenses, including but not limited to attorneys’ fees, incurred in connection therewith).  Any payment (not including any such costs and expenses) so recovered by the Trustee shall be paid and delivered to the last preceding Holder of such Residual Certificate.

If any purported transferee shall become a registered Holder of a Residual Certificate in violation of the provisions of this Section 3.03(f), then upon receipt of written notice to the Trustee that the registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate was not in fact permitted by this Section 3.03(f), the last preceding Permitted Transferee shall be restored to all rights as Holder thereof retroactive to the date of such registration of transfer of such Residual Certificate.  The Trustee shall be under no liability to any Person for any registration of transfer of a Residual Certificate that is in fact not permitted by this Section 3.03(f), for making any payment due on such Certificate to the registered Holder thereof or for taking any other action with respect to such Holder under the provisions of this Agreement so long as the transfer was registered upon receipt of the affidavit described in the preceding paragraph of this Section 3.03(f).

(g)

Each Holder or Certificate Owner of a Restricted Certificate, ERISA-Restricted Certificate or Residual Certificate, or an interest therein, by such Holder’s or Owner’s acceptance thereof, shall be deemed for all purposes to have consented to the provisions of this section.

Section 3.04

Cancellation of Certificates.  

Any Certificate surrendered for registration of transfer or exchange shall be cancelled and retained in accordance with the Trustee’s normal retention policies with respect to cancelled certificates maintained by the Trustee or the Certificate Registrar.

Section 3.05

Replacement of Certificates.  

If (i) any Certificate is mutilated and is surrendered to the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent or (ii) the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent receives evidence to its satisfaction of the destruction, loss or theft of any Certificate, and there is delivered to the Trustee and the Authenticating Agent and any NIMS Insurer such security or indemnity as may be required by them to save each of them harmless, then, in the absence of notice to the Trustee and any Authenticating Agent that such destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate has been acquired by a bona fide purchaser, the Trustee shall execute and the Trustee or any Authenticating Agent shall authenticate and deliver, in exchange for or in lieu of any such mutilated, destroyed, lost or stolen Certificate, a new Certificate of like tenor and Certificate Principal Amount.  Upon the issuance of any new Certificate under this Sec tion 3.05, the Trustee and Authenticating Agent may require the payment of a sum sufficient to cover any tax or other governmental charge that may be imposed in relation thereto and any other expenses (including the fees and expenses of the Trustee or the Authenticating Agent) connected therewith.  Any replacement Certificate issued pursuant to this Section 3.05 shall constitute complete and indefeasible evidence of ownership in the applicable Trust Fund, as if originally issued, whether or not the lost, stolen or destroyed Certificate shall be found at any time.

Section 3.06

Persons Deemed Owners.  

Subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 with respect to Book-Entry Certificates, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any NIMS Insurer and any agent of any of them may treat the Person in whose name any Certificate is registered upon the books of the Certificate Registrar as the owner of such Certificate for the purpose of receiving distributions pursuant to Sections 5.01 and 5.02 and for all other purposes whatsoever, and neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Trustee, the Certificate Registrar, any NIMS Insurer nor any agent of any of them shall be affected by notice to the contrary.

Section 3.07

Temporary Certificates.  

(a)

Pending the preparation of definitive Certificates, upon the order of the Depositor, the Trustee shall execute and shall authenticate and deliver temporary Certificates that are printed, lithographed, typewritten, mimeographed or otherwise produced, in any authorized denomination, substantially of the tenor of the definitive Certificates in lieu of which they are issued and with such variations as the authorized officers executing such Certificates may determine, as evidenced by their execution of such Certificates.

(b)

If temporary Certificates are issued, the Depositor will cause definitive Certificates to be prepared without unreasonable delay.  After the preparation of definitive Certificates, the temporary Certificates shall be exchangeable for definitive Certificates upon surrender of the temporary Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee without charge to the Holder.  Upon surrender for cancellation of any one or more temporary Certificates, the Trustee shall execute and authenticate and deliver in exchange therefor a like aggregate Certificate Principal Amount of definitive Certificates of the same Class in the authorized denominations.  Until so exchanged, the temporary Certificates shall in all respects be entitled to the same benefits under this Agreement as definitive Certificates of the same Class.

Section 3.08

Appointment of Paying Agent.  

The Trustee, subject to the consent of the NIMS Insurer, may appoint a Paying Agent (which may be the Trustee) for the purpose of making distributions to Certificateholders hereunder.  The Trustee shall cause such Paying Agent to execute and deliver to the Trustee an instrument in which such Paying Agent shall agree with the Trustee that such Paying Agent will hold all sums held by it for the payment to Certificateholders in an Eligible Account in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders entitled thereto until such sums shall be paid to the Certificateholders.  All funds remitted by the Trustee to any such Paying Agent for the purpose of making distributions shall be paid to Certificateholders on each Distribution Date and any amounts not so paid shall be returned on such Distribution Date to the Trustee.  If the Paying Agent is not the Trustee, the Trustee shal l cause to be remitted to the Paying Agent on or before the Business Day prior to each Distribution Date, by wire transfer in immediately available funds, the funds to be distributed on such Distribution Date.  Any Paying Agent shall be either a bank or trust company or otherwise authorized under law to exercise corporate trust powers.

Section 3.09

Book-Entry Certificates.  

(a)

Each Class of Book-Entry Certificates, upon original issuance, shall be issued in the form of one or more typewritten Certificates representing the Book-Entry Certificates.  The Book-Entry Certificates shall initially be registered on the Certificate Register in the name of the nominee of the Clearing Agency, and no Certificate Owner will receive a definitive certificate representing such Certificate Owner’s interest in the Book-Entry Certificates, except as provided in Section 3.09(c).  Unless Definitive Certificates have been issued to Certificate Owners of Book-Entry Certificates pursuant to Section 3.09(c):

(i)

the provisions of this Section 3.09 shall be in full force and effect;

(ii)

the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the Paying Agent, the Registrar, any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee may deal with the Clearing Agency for all purposes (including the making of distributions on the Book-Entry Certificates) as the authorized representatives of the Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency shall be responsible for crediting the amount of such distributions to the accounts of such Persons entitled thereto, in accordance with the Clearing Agency’s normal procedures;

(iii)

to the extent that the provisions of this Section 3.09 conflict with any other provisions of this Agreement, the provisions of this Section 3.09 shall control; and

(iv)

the rights of Certificate Owners shall be exercised only through the Clearing Agency and the Clearing Agency Participants and shall be limited to those established by law and agreements between such Certificate Owners and the Clearing Agency and/or the Clearing Agency Participants.  Unless and until Definitive Certificates are issued pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the initial Clearing Agency will make book-entry transfers among the Clearing Agency Participants and receive and transmit distributions of principal of and interest on the Book-Entry Certificates to such Clearing Agency Participants.

(b)

Whenever notice or other communication to the Certificateholders is required under this Agreement, unless and until Definitive Certificates shall have been issued to Certificate Owners pursuant to Section 3.09(c), the Trustee shall give all such notices and communications specified herein to be given to Holders of the Book-Entry Certificates to the Clearing Agency.

(b)

On each Distribution Date on which there is a payment received by the Trustee under the Cap Agreement that is based on a notional amount in excess of the aggregate Class Principal Amount of the Offered Certificates (such amount, the “Class X Excess Cap Amount”), the Trustee shall not treat such payments as amounts on deposit in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund for purposes of determining the Required Reserve Fund Amount for any Distribution Date.  Any such Class X Excess Cap Amount shall not be an asset of the Trust Fund and, instead, shall be paid into and distributed out of a separate trust created by this Agreement for the benefit of the Class X Certificateholders, and the Trustee shall distribute such amount (as specified in the monthly report furnished by the Securities Administrator to the Trustee with respect to such Distribution Date) to the Class X Certificateholde rs pursuant to Section 5.02(h)(iii)(C).  On each Distribution Date, the Trustee shall distribute in accordance with the monthly report furnished by the Securities Administrator to the Trustee with respect to such Distribution Date pursuant to Section 4.03 in the order of priority and to the extent specified in Section 5.02(h)(iii) of this Agreement the sum of (without duplication) (a) any payments made by the Cap Provider to the Trust Fund for such Distribution Date with respect to the Cap Agreement, (b) any amounts then on deposit in the Basis Risk Reserve Fund, including any earnings thereon, in respect of the Cap Agreement and (c) the Basis Risk Payment, if any, for such Distribution Date.

Notwithstanding the termination of its activities as Master Servicer, each terminated Master Servicer shall continue to be entitled to reimbursement to the extent provided in Section 4.02 to the extent such reimbursement relates to the period prior to such Master Servicer’s termination.

If any Event of Default shall occur, the Trustee, upon a Responsible Officer of the Trustee becoming aware of the occurrence thereof, shall promptly notify the Securities Administrator, any NIMS Insurer and each Rating Agency of the nature and extent of such Event of Default.  The Trustee shall immediately give written notice to the Master Servicer upon the Master Servicer’s failure to remit funds on the Master Servicer Remittance Date.

(b)

On any Distribution Date occurring on or after the Initial Optional Purchase Date, the Master Servicer, with the prior written consent of any NIMS Insurer and the Seller, which consent shall not unreasonably be withheld, has the option to cause the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of complete liquidation pursuant to Section 7.03(a)(i) hereof to sell all of its property.  The Master Servicer has agreed not to exercise such option so long as any NIM Securities remain outstanding.  Upon exercise of such option, the property of the Trust Fund shall be sold to the Master Servicer at a price (the “Termination Price”) equal to the sum of (i) 100% of the unpaid principal balance of each Mortgage Loan on the day of such purchase plus interest accrued thereon at the applicable Mortgage Rate with respect to any Mortgage Loan to the Due Date in the Collection Period immediately pre ceding the related Distribution Date to the date of such repurchase, (ii) the fair market value of any REO Property and any other property held by any REMIC, such fair market value to be determined by an independent appraiser or appraisers mutually agreed upon by the Master Servicer, any NIMS Insurer and the Trustee and (iii) any unreimbursed Servicing Advances.  The Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator (or the Trustee, if applicable), each Servicer and each Custodian shall be reimbursed from the Termination Price for any Mortgage Loan or related REO Property for any Advances made or other amounts advanced with respect to the Mortgage Loans that are reimbursable to any such entity under this Agreement, the related Servicing Agreement or the related Custodial Agreement, together with any accrued and unpaid compensation and any other amounts due to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the applicable Custodian or the Trustee hereunder or the Servicers thereunder.  In the event t hat on or after the Initial Optional Purchase Date the Master Servicer does not exercise its option to cause the Trust Fund to to adopt a plan of complete liquidation as described above, the NIMS Insurer (if any) shall have the right to direct the Master Servicer to exercise such option.  If the NIMS Insurer directs the Master Servicer to exercise its right to cause the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of complete liquidation as described above, then (i) the Master Servicer shall cause the Trust Fund to adopt a plan of complete liquidation as described above, (ii) the NIMS Insurer shall remit the Termination Price in immediately available funds to the Master Servicer at least three Business Days prior to the applicable Distribution Date, and, upon receipt of such funds from the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer shall promptly deposit such funds in the Collection Account and (iii) upon termination of the Trust Fund, the Master Servicer will transfer the property of the Trust Fund to the NIMS Insurer.  The NIMS Insurer shall be obligated to reimburse the Master Servicer for its reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred in connection with its termination of the Trust Fund at the direction of the NIMS Insurer and shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer for any losses, liabilities or expenses resulting from any claims directly resulting from or relating to the Master Servicer’s termination of the Trust Fund at the direction of the NIMS Insurer, except to the extent such losses, liabilities or expenses arise out of or result from the Master Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct.

Section 7.02

Procedure Upon Termination of Trust Fund.  

(a)

Notice of any termination pursuant to the provisions of Section 7.01, specifying the Distribution Date upon which the final distribution shall be made, shall be given promptly by the Trustee by first class mail to Certificateholders mailed upon (x) the sale of all of the property of the Trust Fund by the Trustee pursuant to Section 7.01(b) or (y) upon the final payment or other liquidation of the last Mortgage Loan or REO Property in the Trust Fund.  Such notice shall specify (A) the Distribution Date upon which final distribution on the Certificates of all amounts required to be distributed to Certificateholders pursuant to Section 5.02 will be made upon presentation and surrender of the Certificates at the Corporate Trust Office, and (B) that the Record Date otherwise applicable to such Distribution Date is not applicable, distribution being made only upon presentation and sur render of the Certificates at the office or agency of the Trustee therein specified.  The Trustee shall give such notice to the Master Servicer and the Certificate Registrar at the time such notice is given to Holders of the Certificates.  Upon any such termination, the duties of the Certificate Registrar with respect to the Certificates shall terminate and the Trustee shall terminate or request the Master Servicer to terminate, the Collection Account it maintains, the Certificate Account and any other account or fund maintained with respect to the Certificates, subject to the Trustee’s obligation hereunder to hold all amounts payable to Certificateholders in trust without interest pending such payment.

(b)

In the event that all of the Holders do not surrender their Certificates for cancellation within three months after the time specified in the above-mentioned written notice, the Trustee shall give a second written notice to the remaining Certificateholders to surrender their Certificates for cancellation and receive the final distribution with respect thereto.  If within one year after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee may take appropriate steps to contact the remaining Certificateholders concerning surrender of such Certificates, and the cost thereof shall be paid out of the amounts distributable to such Holders.  If within two years after the second notice any Certificates shall not have been surrendered for cancellation, the Trustee shall, subject to applicable state law relating to escheatment, hold all amou nts distributable to such Holders for the benefit of such Holders.  No interest shall accrue on any amount held by the Trustee and not distributed to a Certificateholder due to such Certificateholder’s failure to surrender its Certificate(s) for payment of the final distribution thereon in accordance with this Section.

Any reasonable expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with any termination or liquidation of the Trust Fund shall be reimbursed from proceeds received from the liquidation of the Trust Fund.

(i)

Within 89 days prior to the time of the making of the final payment on the Certificates, upon notification by the Master Servicer, any NIMS Insurer or an affiliate of the Seller that it intends to exercise its option to cause the termination of the Trust Fund, the Trustee shall adopt a plan of complete liquidation of the Trust Fund on behalf of each REMIC, meeting the requirements of a qualified liquidation under the REMIC Provisions;

(ii)

Any sale of the assets of the Trust Fund pursuant to Section 7.02 shall be a sale for cash and shall occur at or after the time of adoption of such a plan of complete liquidation and prior to the time of making of the final payment on the Certificates;

(iii)

On the date specified for final payment of the Certificates, the Trustee shall make final distributions of principal and interest on the Certificates in accordance with Section 5.02 and, after payment of, or provision for any outstanding expenses, distribute or credit, or cause to be distributed or credited, to the Holders of the Residual Certificates all cash on hand after such final payment (other than cash retained to meet claims), and the Trust Fund (and each REMIC) shall terminate at that time; and

(iv)

In no event may the final payment on the Certificates or the final distribution or credit to the Holders of the Residual Certificates be made after the 89th day from the date on which the plan of complete liquidation is adopted.

(b)

By its acceptance of a Residual Certificate, each Holder thereof hereby agrees to accept the plan of complete liquidation prepared by the Depositor and adopted by the Trustee under this Section and to take such other action in connection therewith as may be reasonably requested by the Master Servicer or any Servicer.

(c)

In connection with the termination of the Trust Fund, the Trustee may request an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (at the expense of the Depositor) to the effect that all the requirements of a qualified liquidation under the REMIC Provisions have been met.

Section 7.04

Optional Repurchase Right.

The NIMS Insurer, if any, may repurchase any Distressed Mortgage Loan for a purchase price equal to the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan, plus accrued interest thereon to the date of repurchase plus any unreimbursed Advances, Servicing Advances,  Servicing Fees or Securities Administrator Fees allocable to such Distressed Mortgage Loan.  Any such repurchase shall be accomplished by the NIMS Insurer’s remittance of the purchase price for the Distressed Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer for deposit into the Collection Account.  The NIMS Insurer shall not use any procedure in selecting Distressed Mortgage Loans to be repurchased which would be materially adverse to Certificateholders.

Section 9.04

Power to Act; Procedures.  

(a)

The Master Servicer shall master service the Mortgage Loans and shall have full power and authority, subject to the REMIC Provisions and the provisions of Article X hereof, and each Servicer shall have full power and authority (to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement) to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the 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 Certificateholders and the Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mort gaged Property securing any Mortgage Loan, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the applicable Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided that the Master Servicer shall not take, or knowingly permit any Servicer to take, any action that is inconsistent with or prejudices the interests of the Trust Fund or the Certificateholders in any Mortgage Loan or the rights and interests of the Depositor, the Trustee, the Certificateholders under this Agreement.  The Master Servicer shall represent and protect the interests of the Trust Fund in the same manner as it protects its own interests in mortgage loans in its own portfolio in any claim, proceeding or litigation regarding a Mortgage Loan and shall not make or knowingly permit any Servicer to make any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would cause an Adverse REMIC Event.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Master Servicer in its own name or in the name of a Service r, and each Servicer, to the extent such authority is delegated to such Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement, is hereby authorized and empowered by the Trustee when the Master Servicer or such Servicer, as the case may be, believes it appropriate in its best judgment and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the applicable Servicing Agreement, to execute and deliver, on behalf of itself and the Certificateholders, the Trustee or any of them, any and all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties.  The Trustee shall furnish to the Master Servicer, upon request, with any powers of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or any 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 ap peal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the Mortgage Loans or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and the Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, necessary or appropriate to enable the Master Servicer to master service the Mortgage Loans and carry out its duties hereunder and to allow each Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans, in each case in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices (and the Trustee shall have no liability for misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer or any Servicer).  If the Master Servicer or the 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 Trustee or that the Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, then upon request of the Trustee the Master Servicer shall join with the Trustee in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 6.09 hereof.  In no event shall the Master Servicer, without the Trustee’s written consent:  (i) initiate any action, suit or proceeding solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Master Servicer’s representative capacity or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and which actually does cause, the Trustee to be registered to do business in any state.  The Master Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for any and all costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the negligent or willful misuse of such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer.  In the performance of its duties hereunder, the Master Servicer shall be an independent contractor and shall not, except in those instances where it is taking action in the name of the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund, be deemed to be the agent of the Trustee.

(b)

In master servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Master Servicer shall employ procedures and exercise the same care that it customarily employs and exercises in master servicing and administering loans for its own account, giving due consideration to Accepted Servicing Practices where such practices do not conflict with this Agreement.  Consistent with the foregoing, the Master Servicer may, and may permit any Servicer to, in its discretion (i) waive any late payment charge (but not any Prepayment Premium except as set forth below) and (ii) extend the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note for a period not greater than 120 days; provided, however, that the maturity of any Mortgage Loan shall not be extended past the date on which the final payment is due on the latest maturing Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date.  In the event of any extension de scribed in clause (ii) above, the Master Servicer shall make or cause such Servicer (if required by the applicable Servicing Agreement)  to make Advances on the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of Section 5.04 on the basis of the amortization schedule of such Mortgage Loan without modification thereof by reason of such extension.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not make or knowingly permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any material term of any Mortgage Loan, unless:  (1) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default by the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or the related Servicer, reasonably foreseeable, (2) in the case of a waiver of a Prepayment Premium, (a) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default by the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or the related Servicer, reasonably foreseeable and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Premium and the related Mortgage Loan or (b) if the prepayment is not the result of a refinance by the Servicer or any of its affiliates and (i) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default by the related Mortgagor is, in the reasonable judgment of the Master Servicer or the related Servicer, reasonably foreseeable and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Premium and the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) the collection of the Prepayment Premium would be in violation of applicable law or (iii) the collection of such Prepayment Premium would be considered “predatory” pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable federal, state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and having jurisdiction over such matters and (3) the Master Servicer shall have provided or caused to be provided to the Trustee an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Tru stee (which opinion shall, if provided by the Master Servicer, be an expense reimbursed from the Collection Account pursuant to Section 4.02(v)) to the effect that such modification, waiver or amendment would not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.


Section 9.05

Enforcement of Servicer’s and Master Servicer’s Obligations.  

(a)

Each Servicing Agreement requires the applicable Servicer, respectively, to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions thereof.  References in this Agreement to actions taken or to be taken by the Master Servicer include actions taken or to be taken by a Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer.  Any fees and other amounts payable to a Servicer shall be deducted from amounts remitted to the Master Servicer by such Servicer (to the extent permitted by the applicable Servicing Agreement) and shall not be an obligation of the Trust Fund or the Master Servicer.

(b)

The Master Servicer shall not be required to (i) take any action with respect to the servicing of any Mortgage Loan that the related Servicer is not required to take under the related Servicing Agreement and (ii) cause a Servicer to take any action or refrain from taking any action if the related Servicing Agreement does not require such Servicer to take such action or refrain from taking such action; in both cases notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement that requires the Master Servicer to take such action or cause such Servicer to take such action.

(c)

The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that a Servicer fails to perform its obligations in accordance therewith, terminate the rights and obligations of such Servicer thereunder and either act as servicer of the related Mortgage Loans or cause the other parties hereto to enter into a Servicing Agreement (and such parties hereby agree to execute and deliver any such successor Servicing Agreement), with a successor Servicer.  Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Servicing Agreements 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 judgm ent, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans.  The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, and shall be reimbursed therefor initially (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement only to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loans, (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed, and then, (iii) to the extent that such amounts are insufficient to reimburse the Master Servicer for the costs of such enforcement, from the Collection Account.

(d)

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to conclusively rely on any certifications or other information provided by the Servicers under the terms of the applicable Servicing Agreement, in its preparation of any certificates, filings or reports, in accordance with the terms hereof or as may be required by applicable law or regulation.

Section 9.06

Collection of Taxes, Assessments and Similar Items.  

(a)

To the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall cause each Servicer to establish and maintain one or more custodial accounts at a depository institution (which may be a depository institution with which the Master Servicer or any Servicer establishes accounts in the ordinary course of its servicing activities), the accounts of which are insured to the maximum extent permitted by the FDIC (each, an “Escrow Account”) and to deposit therein any collections of amounts received with respect to amounts due for taxes, assessments, water rates, standard hazard insurance policy premiums, Payaheads, if applicable, or any comparable items for the account of the Mortgagors.  Withdrawals from any Escrow Account may be made (to the extent amounts have been escrowed for such purpose) only in accordance with the applicable Servicing Agreement. & nbsp;Each Servicer shall be entitled to all investment income not required to be paid to Mortgagors on any Escrow Account maintained by such Servicer.  The Master Servicer shall make (or cause to be made) to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement advances to the extent necessary in order to effect timely payment of taxes, water rates, assessments, Standard Hazard Insurance Policy premiums or comparable items in connection with the related Mortgage Loan (to the extent that the Mortgagor is required, but fails, to pay such items), provided that it or the applicable Servicer has determined that the funds so advanced are recoverable from escrow payments, reimbursement pursuant to Section 4.02 or otherwise.

(b)

Costs incurred by the Master Servicer or by any Servicer in effecting the timely payment of taxes and assessments on the properties subject to the Mortgage Loans may be added to the amount owing under the related Mortgage Note where the terms of the Mortgage Note so permit; provided, however, that the addition of any such cost shall not be taken into account for purposes of calculating the distributions to be made to Certificateholders.  Such costs, to the extent that they are unanticipated, extraordinary costs, and not ordinary or routine costs shall be recoverable as a Servicing Advance by the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02.

Section 9.07

Termination of Servicing Agreements; Successor Servicers.  

(a)

The Master Servicer shall be entitled to terminate the rights and obligations of any Servicer under the applicable Servicing Agreement in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Servicing Agreement and without any limitation by virtue of this Agreement; provided, however, that in the event of termination of any Servicing Agreement by the Master Servicer, the Master Servicer shall provide for the servicing of the Mortgage Loans by a successor Servicer to be appointed as provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement.

The parties acknowledge that notwithstanding the preceding sentence, there may be a transition period, not to exceed 90 days, in order to effect the transfer of servicing to a successor Servicer.  The Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed from each Servicer (or by the Trust Fund, if the Servicer is unable to fulfill its obligations hereunder) for all costs associated with the transfer of servicing from the predecessor servicer, including without limitation, any 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 Master Servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively.

(b)

If the Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will not assume liability for the representations and warranties of a Servicer, if any, that it replaces.  The Master Servicer shall use reasonable efforts to have the successor Servicer assume liability for the representations and warranties made by the terminated Servicer in the related Servicing Agreement, and in the event of any such assumption by the successor Servicer, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as applicable, may, in the exercise of its business judgment, release the terminated Servicer from liability for such representations and warranties.

(c)

If the Master Servicer acts as a successor Servicer, it will have the same obligations to make Advances as the Servicer under the related Servicing Agreement and to reimburse the successor Servicer for unreimbursed Advances if required by the Servicing Agreement but will have no obligation to make an Advance if it determines in its reasonable judgment that such Advance is non-recoverable.  To the extent that the Master Servicer is unable to find a successor Servicer that is willing to service the Mortgage Loans for the Servicing Fee because of the obligation of the Servicer to make Advances regardless of whether such Advance is recoverable, the applicable Servicing Agreement may be amended to provide that the successor Servicer shall have no obligation to make an Advance if it determines in its reasonable judgment that such Advance is non-recoverable and provides an Officer’ ;s Certificate to such effect to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer.

Section 9.08

Master Servicer Liable for Enforcement.  

Notwithstanding any Servicing Agreement, the Master Servicer shall remain obligated and liable to the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, to the extent of its obligations hereunder, without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Servicing Agreements.  The Master Servicer shall use commercially reasonable efforts to ensure that the Mortgage Loans are serviced in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and shall use commercially reasonable efforts to enforce the provisions of each Servicing Agreement for the benefit of the Certificateholders and any NIMS Insurer.  The Master Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with any Servicer for indemnification of the Master Servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnifi cation.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the Master Servicer shall have no liability for the acts or omissions of any Servicer in the performance by such Servicer of its obligations under the related Servicing Agreement.

Section 9.09

No Contractual Relationship Between Any Servicer and Trustee or Depositor.  

Any Servicing Agreement that may be entered into and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving any Servicer in its capacity as such and not as an originator shall be deemed to be between such Servicer, the Seller and the Master Servicer, and the Trustee, any NIMS Insurer and the Depositor shall not be deemed parties thereto and shall have no obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to such Servicer except as set forth in Section 9.10 hereof, but shall have rights thereunder as third party beneficiaries.  It is furthermore understood and agreed by the parties hereto that the obligations of any Servicer are set forth in their entirety in such Servicer’s related Servicing Agreement and such Servicer has no obligations under and is not otherwise bound by the terms of this Agreement.

Section 9.10

Assumption of Servicing Agreement by Securities Administrator.  

(a)

In the event the Master Servicer shall for any reason no longer be the Master Servicer (including by reason of any Event of Default under this Agreement), after a period not to exceed ninety days after the Securities Administrator receives written notice from the Trustee pursuant to Section 6.14 or Section 9.28, as applicable, the Securities Administrator shall thereupon assume all of the rights and obligations of such Master Servicer hereunder and under each Servicing Agreement entered into with respect to the Mortgage Loans.  The Securities Administrator, its designee or any successor master servicer appointed by the Securities Administrator shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Master Servicer’s interest herein and therein to the same extent as if such Servicing Agreement had been assigned to the assuming party, except that the Master Servicer shall not thereby be r elieved of any liability or obligations of the Master Servicer under such Servicing Agreement accruing prior to its replacement as Master Servicer, and shall be liable to the Securities Administrator and any NIMS Insurer, and hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Securities Administrator and any NIMS Insurer from and against all costs, damages, expenses and liabilities (including reasonable attorneys’ fees) incurred by the Securities Administrator or any NIMS Insurer as a result of such liability or obligations of the Master Servicer and in connection with the Securities Administrator’s assumption (but not its performance, except to the extent that costs or liability of the Securities Administrator are created or increased as a result of negligent or wrongful acts or omissions of the Master Servicer prior to its replacement as Master Servicer) of the Master Servicer’s obligations, duties or responsibilities thereunder.

(b)

The Master Servicer that has been terminated shall, upon request of the Securities Administrator but at the expense of such Master Servicer, deliver to the assuming party all documents and records relating to each Servicing Agreement and the related Mortgage Loans and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of each Servicing Agreement to the assuming party.

Section 9.12

(b)

From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the applicable Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall execute such documents as shall be prepared and furnished to the Trustee by the Master Servicer, or by a Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Trustee) and as are necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings.  The Trustee or the applicable Custodian, shall, upon request of the Master Servicer, or of a Servicer, and delivery to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, of a request for release of documents and a receipt signed by a Servicing Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit C, release the related Mortgage File held in its possession or control to the Master Servicer (or the applicable Servicer).  Such receipt shall obligate the Master Servicer or Ser vicer to return the Mortgage File to the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, as applicable, when the need therefor by the Master Servicer or Servicer no longer exists unless the Mortgage Loan shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer similar to that hereinabove specified, the receipt shall be released by the Trustee or the applicable Custodian, as applicable, to the Master Servicer (or the applicable Servicer).

ARTICLE X

REMIC ADMINISTRATION

Section 10.01

REMIC Administration.  

(a)

REMIC elections as set forth in the Preliminary Statement shall be made on Forms 1066 or other appropriate federal tax or information return for the taxable year ending on the last day of the calendar year in which the Certificates are issued.  The regular interests and residual interest in each REMIC shall be as designated in the Preliminary Statement.  For purposes of such designations, the interest rate of any regular interest that is computed by taking into account the weighted average of any of the LT-Pool-1-PSA, LT-Pool-1-N, LT-Pool-2-PSA, LT-Pool-2-N, LT-Pool-3-PSA, LT-Pool-3-N, LT-Pool-4-PSA, LT-Pool-4-N, LT-Pool-5-PSA, or LT-Pool-5-N Interests shall be reduced by the amount of any expense paid by the Trust to the extent that (i) such expense was not taken into account in computing the Net Mortgage Rate of any Mortgage Loan, (ii) such expense does not constitute an “unanticipated expense” of a REMIC within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-1(b)(3)(ii) and (ii) the amount of such expense was not taken into account in computing the interest rate of a more junior class of regular interests.

(b)

The Closing Date is hereby designated as the “Startup Day” of each REMIC within the meaning of section 860G(a)(9) of the Code.  The latest possible maturity date for purposes of Treasury Regulation 1.860G-1(a)(4) will be the Latest Possible Maturity Date.

(c)

The Securities Administrator shall represent the Trust Fund in any administrative or judicial proceeding relating to an examination or audit by any governmental taxing authority with respect thereto.  The Securities Administrator shall pay any and all tax related expenses (not including taxes) of each REMIC, including but not limited to any professional fees or expenses related to audits or any administrative or judicial proceedings with respect to such REMIC that involve the Internal Revenue Service or state tax authorities, but only to the extent that (i) such expenses are ordinary or routine expenses, including expenses of a routine audit but not expenses of litigation (except as described in (ii)); or (ii) such expenses or liabilities (including taxes and penalties) are attributable to the negligence or willful misconduct of the Securities Administrator in fulfilling its dut ies hereunder (including its duties as tax return preparer).  The Securities Administrator shall be entitled to reimbursement of expenses to the extent provided in clause (i) above from the Securities Administration Account, provided, however, the Securities Administrator shall not be entitled to reimbursement for expenses incurred in connection with the preparation of tax returns and other reports as required by Section 6.20 and this Section.

(d)

The Securities Administrator shall prepare, the Trustee shall sign and the Securities Administrator shall file all of each REMIC’s federal and appropriate state tax and information returns as such REMIC’s direct representative.  The expenses of preparing and filing such returns shall be borne by the Securities Administrator.

(e)

The Securities Administrator or its designee shall perform on behalf of each REMIC all reporting and other tax compliance duties that are the responsibility of such REMIC under the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other compliance guidance issued by the Internal Revenue Service or any state or local taxing authority.  Among its other duties, if required by the Code, the REMIC Provisions, or other such guidance, the Securities Administrator shall provide (i) to the Treasury or other governmental authority such information as is necessary for the application of any tax relating to the transfer of a Residual Certificate to any disqualified person or organization pursuant to Treasury Regulation 1.860E-2(a)(5) and any person designated in Section 860E(e)(3) of the Code and (ii) to the Trustee such information as is necessary for the Trustee to provide to the Certificateholders such inf ormation or reports as are required by the Code or REMIC Provisions.

The Securities Administrator shall be entitled to receive reasonable compensation from the Trust for the performance of its duties under this subsection (e); provided, however, that such compensation shall not exceed $5,000 per year.

(f)

The Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer and the Holders of Certificates shall take any action or cause any REMIC to take any action necessary to create or maintain the status of any REMIC as a REMIC under the REMIC Provisions and shall assist each other as necessary to create or maintain such status.  Neither the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer nor the Holder of any Residual Certificate shall knowingly take any action, cause any REMIC to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken, as the case may be, could result in an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, any NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer have received an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.  In addition, prior to taking any action with respect to any REMIC or the assets therein, or causing any REMIC to take any action, which is not expressly permitted under the terms of this Agreement, any Holder of a Residual Certificate will consult with the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, any NIMS Insurer or their respective designees, in writing, with respect to whether such action could cause an Adverse REMIC Event to occur with respect to any REMIC, and no such Person shall take any such action or cause any REMIC to take any such action as to which the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any NIMS Insurer has advised it in writing that an Adverse REMIC Event could occur.

(g)

Each Holder of a Residual Certificate shall pay when due any and all taxes imposed on the related REMIC by federal or state governmental authorities.  To the extent that such taxes are not paid by a Residual Certificateholder, the Trustee shall pay any remaining REMIC taxes out of current or future amounts otherwise distributable to the Holder of the Residual Certificate in any such REMIC or, if no such amounts are available, out of other amounts held in the Collection Account, and shall reduce amounts otherwise payable to holders of regular interests in any such REMIC, as the case may be.

(h)

The Securities Administrator shall, for federal income tax purposes, maintain books and records with respect to each REMIC on a calendar year and on an accrual basis.

(i)

No additional contributions of assets shall be made to any REMIC, except as expressly provided in this Agreement.

(j)

 Neither the Securities Administrator nor the Master Servicer shall enter into any arrangement by which any REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for services.

(k)

 On or before September 15 of each calendar year beginning in 2004, the Securities Administrator shall deliver to the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer an Officer’s Certificate stating, without regard to any actions taken by any party other than the Securities Administrator, the Securities Administrator’s compliance with provisions of this Section 10.01.  

(l)

 The Securities Administrator shall treat the Basis Risk Reserve Fund as an outside reserve fund within the meaning of Treasury Regulation Section 1.860G-2(h) that is owned by the Holders of the Class X Certificates and that is not an asset of any REMIC.  The Securities Administrator shall treat the rights of the holders of the Offered Certificates to receive payments from the Basis Risk Reserve Fund in the event of a Basis Risk Shortfall as rights in an interest rate cap contract written by the Class X Certificateholders in favor of such Certificateholders.  Thus, each Offered Certificate shall be treated as representing not only ownership of regular interests in the Upper Tier REMIC, but also ownership of an interest in an interest rate cap contract.  For federal tax return and information reporting, such interest rate cap contract shall be assigned a value of $ 173,023.96.

Section 10.02

Prohibited Transactions and Activities.  

Neither the Depositor, the Master Servicer nor the Trustee shall sell, dispose of, or substitute for any of the Mortgage Loans, except in a disposition pursuant to (i) the foreclosure of a Mortgage Loan, (ii) the bankruptcy of the Trust Fund, (iii) the termination of each REMIC pursuant to Article VII of this Agreement, (iv) a substitution pursuant to Article II of this Agreement or (v) a repurchase of Mortgage Loans pursuant to Article II of this Agreement, nor acquire any assets for any REMIC, nor sell or dispose of any investments in the Certificate Account for gain, nor accept any contributions to any REMIC after the Closing Date, unless the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer has received an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Trustee (at the expense of the party causing such sale, disposition, or substitution) that such disposition, acquisition, substitution, or acceptance will not (a ) result in an Adverse REMIC Event, (b) affect the distribution of interest or principal on the Certificates or (c) result in the encumbrance of the assets transferred or assigned to the Trust Fund (except pursuant to the provisions of this Agreement).

Section 10.03

Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC Status.

Upon the occurrence of an Adverse REMIC Event due to the negligent performance by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, of its duties and obligations set forth herein, the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, shall indemnify any NIMS Insurer, the Holder of the related Residual Certificate or the Trust Fund, as applicable, against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Class X Certificateholders, the Holder of such Residual Certificate or the Securities Administrator (with regard to the Trustee), as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the Securities Administrator has relied.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate now or hereafter existing at law or in equity.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement or any Servicing Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Trustee or the Securities Administrator, as applicable, of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates).  In addition, neither the Trustee nor the Securities Administrator shall have any liability for the actions or failure to act of the other.

Section 10.04

REO Property.  

(a)

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Master Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, shall not, except to the extent provided in the applicable Servicing Agreement, knowingly permit any Servicer to, rent, lease, or otherwise earn income on behalf of any REMIC with respect to any REO Property which might cause an Adverse REMIC Event unless the Master Servicer has advised, or has caused the applicable Servicer to advise, the Trustee and any NIMS Insurer in writing to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions, such action would not result in an Adverse REMIC Event.

(b)

The Master Servicer shall cause the applicable Servicer (to the extent provided in its Servicing Agreement) to make reasonable efforts to sell any REO Property for its fair market value.  In any event, however, the Master Servicer shall, or shall cause the applicable Servicer (to the extent provided in its Servicing Agreement) to, dispose of any REO Property within three years of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Master Servicer has received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions, the REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without causing an Adverse REMIC Event.  If the Master Servicer has received such an extension, then the Trustee, or the Master Servicer, acting on its behalf hereunder, shall, or shall cause the applicable Servicer to, continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its f air market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”).  If the Trustee has not received such an extension and the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer, acting on behalf of the Trustee hereunder, is unable to sell the REO Property within 33 months after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Master Servicer has received such an extension, and the Master Servicer or the applicable Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Master Servicer shall cause the applicable Servicer, before the end of the three year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, to (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the applicable Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be.

We understand that the Privately Offered Certificates have not been, and will not be, registered under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Securities Act”), and may not be sold except as permitted in the following sentence. We agree, on our own behalf and on behalf of any accounts for which we are acting as hereinafter stated, that if we should sell any Privately Offered Certificates within two years of the later of the date of original issuance of the Privately Offered Certificates or the last day on which such Privately Offered Certificates are owned by the Depositor or any affiliate of the Depositor (which includes the Placement Agent) we will do so only (A) to the Depositor, (B) to “qualified institutional buyers” (within the meaning of Rule 144A under the Securities Act) in accordance with Rule 144A under the Securities Act (“QIBs”), (C) p ursuant to the exemption from registration provided by Rule 144 under the Securities Act, or (D) to an institutional “accredited investor” within the meaning of Rule 501(a)(1), (2), (3) or (7) of Regulation D under the Securities Act that is not a QIB (an “Institutional Accredited Investor”) which, prior to such transfer, delivers to the Trustee under the Trust Agreement dated as of August 1, 2004 by and among the Depositor, Aurora Loan Services Inc., as Master Servicer, LaSalle Bank National Association, as Trustee (the “Trustee”), Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as Securities Administrator, and The Murrayhill Company, as Credit Risk Manager, a signed letter in the form of this letter; and we further agree, in the capacities stated above, to provide to any person purchasing any of the Privately Offered Certificates from us a notice advising such purchaser that resales of the Privately Offered Certificates are restricted as stated herein.

(2)

We understand that, in connection with any proposed resale of any Privately Offered Certificates to an Institutional Accredited Investor, we will be required to furnish to the Trustee and the Depositor a certification from such transferee in the form hereof to confirm that the proposed sale is being made pursuant to an exemption from, or in a transaction not subject to, the registration requirements of the Securities Act. We further understand that the Privately Offered Certificates purchased by us will bear a legend to the foregoing effect.

(3)

We are acquiring the Privately Offered Certificates for investment purposes and not with a view to, or for offer or sale in connection with, any distribution in violation of the Securities Act. We have such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters as to be capable of evaluating the merits and risks of our investment in the Privately Offered Certificates, and we and any account for which we are acting are each able to bear the economic risk of such investment.

(4)

We are an Institutional Accredited Investor and we are acquiring the Privately Offered Certificates purchased by us for our own account or for one or more accounts (each of which is an Institutional Accredited Investor) as to each of which we exercise sole investment discretion.

(5)

We have received such information as we deem necessary in order to make our investment decision.

(6)

If we are acquiring ERISA-Restricted Certificates, we understand that in accordance with ERISA, the Code and the Exemption, no Plan and no person acting on behalf of such a Plan may acquire such Certificate except in accordance with Section 3.03(d) of the Trust Agreement.

CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS

Section 1.1.

(a)

Sale of Mortgage Loans.  Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Seller does hereby transfer, assign, set over, deposit with and otherwise convey to the Depositor, without recourse, subject to Sections 1.03 and 1.04, all the right, title and interest of the Seller in and to the Mortgage Loans identified on Schedules A-1 and A-2 hereto, having an aggregate principal balance of $3,460,479,188.  Such conveyance includes, without limitation, the right to all distributions of principal and interest received on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans on and after the Cut-off Date, other than payments of principal and interest due on or before such date, and all such payments due after such date but received prior to such date and intended by the related Mortgagors to be applied after such date, all Prepayment Charges received on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans on or after the Cut-off Date, together with all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to each related account and all amounts from time to time credited to and the proceeds of such account, any REO Property and the proceeds thereof, the Seller’s rights under any Insurance Policies relating to the Mortgage Loans, the Seller’s security interest in any collateral pledged to secure the Mortgage Loans, including the Mortgaged Properties, and any proceeds of the foregoing.

Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Seller hereby assigns to the Depositor all of its rights and interest under each Transfer Agreement (except for any rights against the related Transferor with respect to (i) first payment date defaults or early payment date defaults or (ii) reimbursement of any amount in excess of the Purchase Price for a breach of a representation or warranty) and each Servicing Agreement, other than any servicing rights retained thereunder, and delegates to the Depositor all of its obligations thereunder, to the extent relating to the Mortgage Loans.  The Seller and the Depositor further agree that this Agreement incorporates the terms and conditions of any assignment and assumption agreement or other assignment document required to be entered into under any of the Transfer Agreements (any such document, an “Assignment Ag reement”) and that this Agreement constitutes an Assignment Agreement under such Transfer Agreement, and the Depositor hereby assumes the obligations of the assignee under each such Assignment Agreement.  Concurrently with the execution hereof, the Depositor tenders the purchase price set forth in that certain Terms Letter dated as of the date hereof, the form of which is attached as Exhibit B hereto (the “Purchase Price”).  The Depositor hereby accepts such assignment and delegation, and shall be entitled to exercise all the rights of the Seller under each Transfer Agreement and each Servicing Agreement, other than any servicing rights thereunder, as if the Depositor had been a party to each such agreement.

(b)

Schedules of Mortgage Loans.  The Depositor and the Seller have agreed upon which of the Mortgage Loans owned by the Seller are to be purchased by the Depositor pursuant to this Agreement and the Seller will prepare on or prior to the Closing Date a final schedule describing such Mortgage Loans (the “Mortgage Loan Schedule”).  The Mortgage Loan Schedule shall conform to the requirements of the Depositor as set forth in this Agreement and to the definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” under the Trust Agreement.  The Mortgage Loan Schedule attached hereto as Schedule A-1 specifies those Mortgage Loans that are Transferred Mortgage Loans and the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached hereto as Schedule A-2 specifies those Mortgage Loans that are Bank Originated Loans each of which categories of Bank Mortgage Loans have been assigned by the Bank to the Seller pursuant to the Assignment and Assumption Agreement.    

Section 1.2.

Delivery of Documents.

(a)

In connection with such transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans hereunder, the Seller shall, at least three (3) Business Days prior to the Closing Date, deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Depositor (or its designee) the documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan (each, a “Mortgage File”) so transferred and assigned, as specified in the related Transfer Agreements or Servicing Agreements.

(b)

For Mortgage Loans (if any) that have been prepaid in full on or after the Cut-off Date and prior to the related Closing Date, the Seller, in lieu of delivering the related Mortgage Files, herewith delivers to the Depositor an Officer’s Certificate which shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such prepayment that are required to be deposited in the Collection Account maintained by the Master Servicer for such purpose have been so deposited.

Section 1.3.

The Depositor, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt of the Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, subject to review thereof by LaSalle Bank National Association, Deutsche Bank National Trust Company, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and U.S. Bank National Association, as applicable (each, a “Custodian” and, collectively, the “Custodians”), for the Depositor.  Each Custodian is required to review, within 45 days following the Closing Date, each applicable Mortgage File.  If in the course of such review the related Custodian identifies any Material Defect, the Seller shall be obligated to cure such Material Defect or to repurchase the related Mortgage Loan from the Depositor (or, at the direction of and on behalf of the Depositor, from the Trust Fund), or to substitute a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan therefor, in each case to the same extent and in the same manner as the Depositor is obligated to the Trustee and the Trust Fund under Section 2.02(c) of the Trust Agreement.

Section 1.4.

Representations and Warranties of the Seller.  

(a)

The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor that as of the Closing Date:

(i)

the Seller is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws governing its creation and existence and has full corporate power and authority to own its property, carry on its business as presently conducted and enter into and perform its obligations under the Assignment and Assumption Agreement and this Agreement;

(ii)

the execution and delivery by the Seller of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement and this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of the Seller; neither the execution and delivery of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement or this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions therein or herein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions thereof or hereof, will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the provisions of any law, governmental rule, regulation, judgment, decree or order binding on the Seller or its properties or the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of the Seller;

(iii)

the execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement and this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated thereby and hereby do not require the consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency, except such as has been obtained, given, effected or taken prior to the date hereof;

(iv)

each of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement and this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by the Seller and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Bank, in the case of the Assignment and Assumption Agreement, and the Depositor, in the case of this Agreement, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of the Seller enforceable against it in accordance with its respective terms, except as such enforceability may be subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors generally and (B) general principles of equity regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law; and

(v)

there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of the Seller, threatened or likely to be asserted against or affecting the Seller, before or by any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body (A) with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by the Assignment and Assumption Agreement or this Agreement or (B) with respect to any other matter which in the judgment of the Seller will be determined adversely to the Seller and will if determined adversely to the Seller materially and adversely affect it or its business, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, or adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under the Assignment and Assumption Agreement or this Agreement.

(b)

The representations and warranties of each Transferor with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the applicable Transfer Agreement were made as of the date of such Transfer Agreement.  To the extent that any fact, condition or event with respect to a Transferred Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of both (i) a representation or warranty of a Transferor under the applicable Transfer Agreement and (ii) a representation or warranty of the Seller under this Agreement, the sole right or remedy of the Depositor with respect to a breach by the Seller of such representation and warranty (except in the case of a breach by the Seller of the representations made by it pursuant to Sections 1.04(b)(xiii), (xiv), (xv), (xvi), (xvii), (xviii) and (xix)), shall be the right to enforce the obligations of such Transferor under any applicable representation or warranty made by it.  The representations made by the Seller pursuant to Sections 1.04(b)(xiii), (xiv), (xv), (xvi), (xvii), (xviii) and (xix) shall be direct obligations of the Seller.  The Depositor acknowledges and agrees that the representations and warranties of the Seller in this Section 1.04(b) (except in the case of  those representations and warranties made pursuant to Sections 1.04(b)(xiii), (xiv), (xv), (xvi), (xvii), (xviii) (xix)) are applicable only to facts, conditions or events that do not constitute a breach of any representation or warranty made by the related Transferor in the applicable Transfer Agreement.  The Seller shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty made by it with respect to the Transferred Mortgage Loans (except in the case of those representations and warranties made by it pursuant to Sections 1.04(b)(xiii), (xiv), (xv), (xvi), (xvii), (xviii) and (xix)) if the fact, condition or event constituting such breach also constit utes a breach of a representation or warranty made by the related Transferor in such Transfer Agreement, without regard to whether the related Transferor fulfills its contractual obligations in respect of such representation or warranty; provided, however, that if the related Transferor fulfills its obligations under the provisions of such Transfer Agreement by substituting for the affected Mortgage Loan a mortgage loan which is not a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall, in exchange for such substitute mortgage loan, provide the Depositor (a) with the applicable Purchase Price for the affected Mortgage Loan or (b) within the two-year period following the Closing Date, with a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan.

Subject to the foregoing, the Seller represents and warrants upon delivery of the Transferred Mortgage Loans to the Depositor hereunder, as to each, that:

(i)

The information set forth with respect to the Transferred Mortgage Loans on the Mortgage Loan Schedule provides an accurate listing of the Transferred Mortgage Loans, and the information with respect to each Transferred Mortgage Loan on the Mortgage Loan Schedule is true and correct in all material respects at the date or dates respecting which such information is given;

(ii)

There are no defaults (other than delinquency in payment) in complying with the terms of any Mortgage, and the Seller has no notice as to any taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing but which have not been paid;

(iii)

Except in the case of Cooperative Loans, if any, each Mortgage requires all buildings or other improvements on the related Mortgaged Property to be insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the related Mortgaged Property is located pursuant to insurance policies conforming to the requirements of the guidelines of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  If upon origination of the Transferred Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property was in an area identified in the Federal Register 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 Flood Insurance Administration is in effect, which policy conforms to the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Flood Insurance Administration.  Each Mortgage obligates the related Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the hazard insurance policy at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at such Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor.  Where required by state law or regulation, each 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 Depositor upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreeme nt;

(iv)

Each Mortgage has not been satisfied, cancelled, 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 release, cancellation, subordination or rescission;

(v)

In the case of approximately 96.92% and 3.08% of the Mortgage Loans (by Scheduled Principal Balance as of the Cut-off Date), the related Mortgage evidences a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien or second lien, respectively, on the related Mortgaged Property (including all improvements on the Mortgaged Property).  The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to: (1) the first Mortgage, in the case of a Mortgaged Property that is secured by a perfected second lien, (2) liens of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable and, if the related Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, any lien for common charges permitted by statute, (3) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date of recording of such Mortgage acceptable to mortgage lending institutions in the area in which the related Mortgaged Property is located and specifically referred to in the lender’s Title Insurance Policy or attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title delivered to the originator of such Transferred Mortgage Loan, and (4) such 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.  In the case of approximately 96.92% of the Mortgage Loans (by Scheduled Principal Balance as of the Cut-off Date), any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to, and delivered to the Trustee in connection with, a Transferred Mortgage Loan establishes a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien on the property described therein and the Depositor has full right to sell and assign the same to the Trustee;

(vi)

Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment of the Transferred Mortgage Loans to the Depositor, the Seller was the sole owner of record and holder of each Transferred Mortgage Loan, and the Seller had good and marketable title thereto, and has full right to transfer and sell each Transferred Mortgage Loan to the Depositor free and clear, except as described in paragraph (v) above, of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and has full right and authority, subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign each Transferred Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement;

(vii)

Each Transferred Mortgage Loan other than any Cooperative Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title the form and substance of which is generally acceptable to mortgage lending institutions originating mortgage loans in the locality where the related Mortgaged Property is located or (ii) an ALTA Mortgagee Title Insurance Policy or other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance, issued by a title insurer qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring the originator of the Transferred Mortgage Loan, and its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Transferred Mortgage Loan (subject only to the exceptions described in paragraph (v) above).  If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit locate d in a state in which a title insurer will generally issue an endorsement, then the related Title Insurance Policy contains an endorsement insuring the validity of the creation of the condominium form of ownership with respect to the project in which such unit is located.  With respect to any Title Insurance Policy, the originator is the sole insured of such mortgagee Title Insurance Policy, such mortgagee Title Insurance Policy is in full force and effect and will inure to the benefit of the Depositor upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, no claims have been made under such mortgagee Title Insurance Policy and no prior holder of the related Mortgage, including the Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything that would impair the coverage of such mortgagee Title Insurance Policy;

(viii)

To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, no foreclosure action is being threatened or commenced with respect to any Transferred Mortgage Loan.  There is no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation of any Mortgaged Property (or, in the case of any Cooperative Loan, the related cooperative unit) and each such property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty, so as to have a material adverse effect on the value of the related Mortgaged Property as security for the related Transferred Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended;

(ix)

There are no mechanics’ or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the related Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related Mortgage;

(x)

Each Transferred Mortgage Loan was originated by a savings and loan association, savings bank, commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or similar institution that is supervised and examined by a Federal or State authority, or by a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act;

(xi)

Each Transferred Mortgage Loan will have a CLTV of 100% or less as of the Closing Date;

(xii)

Each Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.860G-2;

(xiii)

Each Transferred 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;

(xiv)

No Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “High Cost Loan” or “Covered Loan,” as applicable, as such terms are defined in the Standard & Poor’s LEVELSâ Glossary, Version 5.6 Revised, Appendix E, in effect on the date hereof.  In addition, no Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “high-cost,” “high-cost home,” “covered,”  “high-risk home,” or “predatory” loan under any applicable federal, state or local predatory or abusive lending law (or a similarly classified loan using different terminology under a law imposing heightened regulatory scrutiny or additional legal liability for residential mortgage loans having high interest rates, points and/or fees);

(xv)

No Transferred Mortgage Loan was at the time of origination subject to the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 (15 U.S.C. § 1602(c)), Regulation Z (12 CFR 226.32) or any comparable state law;

(xvi)

The information set forth in the Prepayment Charge Schedules, included as part of the Mortgage Loan Schedules at Schedules A-1 and A-2 hereto (including the Prepayment Charge Summary attached thereto) is complete, true and correct in all material respects on the date or dates on which such information is furnished and each Prepayment Charge is permissible, originated in compliance with, and enforceable in accordance with its terms under, applicable federal, state and local law (except to the extent that the enforceability thereof may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership and other similar laws affecting creditor’s rights generally or the collectibility thereof may be limited due to acceleration in connection with foreclosure);

(xvii)

No Transferred Mortgage Loan was originated (or modified) on or after October 1, 2002 through March 6, 2003 which is secured by a mortgaged property located in Georgia;

(xviii)

In addition to the foregoing representations and warranties made in subparagraphs (i) through (xvii) of this Section 1.04(b), the Seller further represents and warrants upon delivery of the Pool 1 and Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loans, as to each, that:

(a)

No Pool 1or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan was originated (or modified) on or after October 1, 2002 and before March 7, 2003 which is secured by a mortgaged property located in Georgia;

(b)

No Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in Section 6-1 of the New York State Banking Law; no Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Arkansas Home Loan Protection Act (Act 1340 of 2003); no Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Kentucky high-cost home loan statute (Ky. Rev. Stat. Section 360.100); no Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan is a “High-Risk Home Loan” as defined in the Illinois High-Risk Home Loan Act (815 Ill. Comp. Stat. 137/1 et seq.);

(c)

To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, except with respect to broker yield spread premium (“YSP”) as permitted by law, no borrower was encouraged or required to select a Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan product offered by the Transferor which is a higher cost product designed for less creditworthy borrowers, unless at the time of  such Mortgage Loan’s origination, the borrower did not qualify taking into account credit history and debt-to-income ratios for a lower-cost credit product then offered by the Transferor;

(d)

To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, the methodology used in underwriting the extension of credit for each Pool 1 and Pool 3  Transferred Mortgage Loan does not rely solely on the equity in the collateral for determining approval of credit extension, but relies on additional factors such as the borrower’s income, assets, liabilities and/or credit history.  Such underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of origination (application/approval), the borrower had a reasonable ability to make timely payments on the Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan;

(e)

With respect to any Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan that contains a provision permitting imposition of a Prepayment Charge upon a prepayment prior to maturity, to the best of the Seller’s knowledge: (i) pursuant to the Transferor’s underwriting guidelines, the borrower received a premium in exchange for a monetary benefit, including but not limited to a rate or fee reduction, (ii) prior to such Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan’s origination, the borrower was offered the option of obtaining a mortgage loan that did not require payment of such Prepayment Charge, (iii) the Prepayment Charge is disclosed to the borrower in the loan documents pursuant to applicable state and federal law, (iv) the duration of the prepayment period shall not exceed three years from the date of the note, and (v) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, the applicable Servicer shall not impose such Prepayment Charge in any instance when the mortgage debt is accelerated as the result of the borrower’s default in making the loan payments;

(f)

To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, no borrower was required to purchase any credit life, disability, accident or health insurance product as a condition of obtaining the extension of credit evidenced by the Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan.  No borrower obtained a prepaid single-premium credit life, disability, accident or health insurance policy in connection with the origination of the Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan; no proceeds from any Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan were used to purchase single premium credit insurance policies as part of the origination of, or as a condition to closing, such Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan;

(g)

To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, all points and fees related to each Pool 1 and Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan were disclosed in writing to the borrower in accordance with applicable state and federal law and regulation.  Except in the case of a Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan in an original principal amount of less than $60,000 which would have resulted in an unprofitable origination, no borrower was charged “points and fees” (whether or not financed) in an amount greater than 5% of the principal amount of such Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan, such 5% limitation calculated in accordance with Fannie Mae’s anti-predatory lending requirements as set forth in the Fannie Mae Selling Guide;

(h)

All fees and charges (including finance charges) and whether or not financed, assessed, collected or to be collected in connection with the origination and servicing of each Pool 1 and Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan have been disclosed in writing to the borrower in accordance with applicable state and federal law and regulation;

(i)

The Seller shall cause the applicable Servicer to transmit full-file credit reporting data for each Pool 1 and Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan pursuant to Fannie Mae Guide Announcement 95-19 and, with respect to each Pool 1 and Pool 3 Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall cause the applicable Servicer to report one of the following statuses each month as follows:  new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, or charged-off;

(j)

The applicable Servicer for each Pool 1 and Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan has fully furnished in the past (and the Seller shall cause the applicable Servicer to furnish in the future), in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information on its borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian and Trans Union Credit Information Company, on a monthly basis;  

(k)

No Pool 1 or Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan imposes a Prepayment Charge for a term in excess of three years;  

(l)

The outstanding Scheduled Principal Balance of each Pool 1 and Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loan does not exceed the applicable maximum original loan amount limitations with respect to first lien or second lien one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, as applicable, as set forth in the Fannie Mae Selling Guide; and  

(m)

With respect to Pool 1 and Pool 3 Transferred Mortgage Loans secured by manufactured housing, each contract is secured by a “single family residence” within the meaning of Section 25(e)(10) of the Code.  The fair market value of the manufactured home securing each contract was at least 80% of the adjusted issue price of the contract at either (i) the time the contract was originated (determined pursuant to the REMIC provisions of the Code or (ii) the time the contract was transferred to the Seller).  Each such contract is a qualified mortgage under Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code; and

(xix)

In addition to the foregoing representations and warranties made in subparagraphs (i) through (xvii) of this Section 1.04(b), the Seller further represents and warrants upon delivery of the Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loans, as to each, that:

(a)

The outstanding Scheduled Principal Balance of each Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan does not exceed the applicable maximum original loan amount limitations with respect to first lien or second lien one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, as applicable, as set forth in the Freddie Mac Selling Guide;

(b)

There is no Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan that was originated on or after March 7, 2003 which is a “high cost home loan” as defined under the Georgia Fair Lending Act;

(c)

To the best of the Seller’s knowledge, no borrower was required to purchase any credit life, disability, accident or health insurance product as a condition of obtaining the extension of credit evidenced by the Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan.  No borrower obtained a prepaid single-premium credit life, disability, accident or health insurance policy in connection with the origination of the Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan; no proceeds from any Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan were used to purchase single premium credit insurance policies as part of the origination of, or as a condition to closing, such Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan;

(d)

The applicable Servicer for each Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan has fully furnished in the past (and the Seller shall cause the applicable Servicer to furnish in the future), in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information on its borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian and Trans Union Credit Information Company, on a monthly basis;  

(e)

No Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan imposes a Prepayment Charge for a term in excess of three years;  

(f)

The outstanding Scheduled Principal Balance of each Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan does not exceed the applicable maximum original loan amount limitations with respect to first lien or second lien one-to-four family residential mortgage loans, as applicable, as set forth in the Freddie Mac Selling Guide;

(g)

With respect to any Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loan originated on or after August 1, 2004, neither the related mortgage nor the related mortgage note requires the borrower to submit to arbitration to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the mortgage loan transaction; and  

(h)

With respect to Pool 2 Transferred Mortgage Loans secured by manufactured housing, each contract is secured by a “single family residence” within the meaning of Section 25(e)(10) of the Code.  The fair market value of the manufactured home securing each contract was at least 80% of the adjusted issue price of the contract at either (i) the time the contract was originated (determined pursuant to the REMIC provisions of the Code) or (ii) the time the contract was transferred to the Seller.  Each such contract is a qualified mortgage under Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code.

(c)

In addition to the representations and warranties set forth in Section 1.04(b), all of which are also made by the Seller with respect to the Bank Originated Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date (taking into account the applicable Mortgage Pool, in the case of subparagraph (xviii and xix) of such Section), the Seller hereby further represents and warrants to the Depositor upon the delivery to the Depositor on the Closing Date of any Bank Originated Mortgage Loans, but solely as to each Bank Originated Mortgage Loan, that, as of the Cut-off Date:

(i)

With respect to any hazard insurance policy covering a Bank Originated Mortgage Loan and the related Mortgaged Property, the Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Bank’s or the borrower’s having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for therein, 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;

(ii)

Neither the Seller nor the Bank has waived the performance by the borrower of any action, if the Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause a Bank Originated Mortgage Loan to be in default, nor has the Seller or the Bank waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the borrower;

(iii)

The terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by a written instrument which has been recorded, if necessary to protect the interests of the Depositor and which has been delivered to the Custodian;

(iv)

The Mortgaged Property relating to each Bank Originated Mortgage Loan is a fee simple property located in the state identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a parcel of real property with a detached single family residence erected thereon, or a two- to four-family dwelling, or an individual condominium unit in a low-rise condominium project, or an individual unit in a planned unit development; provided, however, that any condominium project or planned unit development shall conform with the applicable Freddie Mac requirements regarding such dwellings. No portion of the Mortgaged Property is used for commercial purposes;

(v)

The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms.  All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other related agreement had legal capacity to enter into the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other related agreement, and the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties.  The documents, instruments and agreements submitted for loan underwriting were not falsified and contain no untrue statement of material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the information and statements therein not misleading.  To the best of Seller’s knowledge, no fraud was committed in connection with the origination of the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan;

(vi)

Each Bank Originated Mortgage Loan has been closed and the proceeds of the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no requirement for future advances thereunder, and any and all requirements as to completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements of any escrow funds therefor have been complied with.  All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan and the recording of the Mortgage were paid, and the borrower is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage;

(vii)

There is no default (other than delinquency in payment), breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration, and neither the Seller nor its predecessors has waived any default, breach, violation or event of acceleration;

(viii)

All improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lay wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property.  No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged Property is in violation of any applicable zoning law or regulation;

(ix)

Each Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions which render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the related Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security, including (A) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (B) otherwise by judicial or non-judicial foreclosure.  There is no homestead or other exemption available to the related Mortgagor which would materially interfere with the right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage subject to the applicable federal and state laws and judicial precedent with respect to bankruptcy and rights of redemption.  Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Bank Originated Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee's sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper proc edures, the holder of the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the property;

(x)

The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage;

(xi)

In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by the Depositor to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the Mortgagor;

(xii)

The Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment of Mortgage and any other documents required to be delivered for the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan by the Seller under this Agreement as set forth in Section 1.02 hereof have been delivered to the Custodian.  The Seller is in possession of a complete, true and accurate Mortgage File in compliance with Section 1.02 hereof, except for such documents the originals of which have been delivered to the Custodian;

(xiii)

The Assignment of Mortgage is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located;

(xiv)

The Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without the prior written consent of the Mortgagee thereunder;

(xv)

No Bank Originated Mortgage Loan contains provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account established by the Mortgagor or anyone on behalf of the Mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the Mortgagor, nor does any Bank Originated Mortgage Loan contain any other similar provisions currently in effect which may constitute a “buydown” provision.  No Bank Originated Mortgage Loan is a graduated payment mortgage loan and no Bank Originated Mortgage Loan has a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature;

(xvi)

Any future advances made prior to the Cut-off Date have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term.  The lien of the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is insured by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee’s consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to Freddie Mac.  The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of any Bank Originated Mortgage Loan;

(xvii)

The origination and collection practices used with respect to each Bank Originated Mortgage Loan have been in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, and have been in all respects in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations.  With respect to escrow deposits and escrow payments, all such payments are in the possession of the Seller and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made.  All escrow payments have been collected in full compliance with state and federal law.  An escrow of funds is not prohibited by applicable law and has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every item which remains unpaid and which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable.  No escrow deposits or escrow payments or other charges or payments due the Se ller have been capitalized under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note.  All Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments have been made in strict compliance with state and federal law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note.  Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state and local law has been properly paid and credited;

(xviii)

 The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgage Property signed prior to the approval of the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan application by a qualified appraiser, who had no interest, direct or indirect in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof; and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy the requirements of Title XI of the Federal Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as in effect on the date the Bank Originated Mortgage Loan was originated;

(xix)

The Mortgaged Property is free from any and all toxic or hazardous substances and there exists no violation of any local, state or federal environmental law, rule or regulation.  There is no pending action or proceeding directly involving any Mortgaged Property of which the Seller is aware in which compliance with any environmental law, rule or regulation is an issue; and to the best of the Seller’s knowledge, nothing further remains to be done to satisfy in full all requirements of each such law, rule or regulation;

(xx)

The Bank Originated Mortgage Loan does not contain a provision permitting or requiring conversion to a fixed interest rate Mortgage Loan;

(xxi)

No Bank Originated Mortgage Loan was made in connection with (i) the construction or rehabilitation of a Mortgaged Property or (ii) facilitating the trade-in or exchange of a Mortgaged Property;

(xxii)

 No action, inaction or event has occurred and no state of facts exists or has existed that has resulted or will result in the exclusion from, denial of or defense to coverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance policy, special hazard insurance policy, primary mortgage loan insurance policy or bankruptcy bond, irrespective of the cause of such failure of coverage.  In connection with the placement of any such insurance, no commission, fee or other compensation has been or will be received by the Seller or any designee of the Seller or any corporation in which the Seller or any officer, director or employee had a financial interest at the time of placement of such insurance; and

(xxiii)

Each original Mortgage was recorded and, except for those Bank Originated Mortgage Loans subject to the MERS identification system, all subsequent assignments of the original Mortgage (other than the assignment to the Depositor) have been recorded in the appropriate jurisdictions wherein such recordation is necessary to perfect the liens thereof as against creditors of the Seller, or are in the process of being recorded.

(d)

With respect to any of the foregoing representations and warranties made in subparagraphs (xiii) (xiv), (xv), (xvi), (xvii), (xviii) and (xix) of Section 1.04(b), a breach of any such representations or warranties shall be deemed to materially and adversely affect the value of the affected Mortgage Loan and the interests of Certificateholders therein, irrespective of the Seller’s knowledge of such breach.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 1.04(b) and 1.04(c) herein shall survive the Closing Date.  Upon discovery by either the Seller or the Depositor of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties (excluding a breach of subparagraph (xvi) under Section 1.04(b)) that adversely and materially affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan and that does not also constitute a breach of a representation or warranty of a Transferor in the related Transfer Agreement, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other party; provided, however, that notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, this paragraph shall be specifically applicable to a breach by the Seller of the representations made pursuant to subparagraphs (xiii), (xiv), (xv), (xvii), (xviii) and (xix) of Section 1.04(b) irrespective of the Transferor’s breach of a comparable representation or warranty made in the related Transfer Agreement.  Within 60 days of the discovery of any such breach, the Seller shall either (a) cure such breach in all material respects, (b) repurchase such Mortgage Loan or any property acquired in respect thereof from the Depositor at the applicable Purchase Price or (c) within the two-year period following the Closing Date substitute a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan.

Notwithstanding the second paragraph of Section 1.04(d), in connection with the Seller’s representations and warranties made in subparagraph (xvi) of Section 1.04(b) and within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Seller or receipt of notice from the applicable Servicer of a breach of such representation and warranty by the Seller, which breach materially and adversely affects the interests of the Class P Certificateholders in any Prepayment Charge, the Seller shall, if (i) such representation and warranty is breached and a Principal Prepayment has occurred or (ii) if a change in law subsequent to the Closing Date, as applicable, limits the enforceability of the Prepayment Charge (other than in the circumstances set forth in subparagraph (xvi) of Section 1.04(b)), pay, at the time of such Principal Prepayment or change in law, the amount of the scheduled Prepayment Charge, for the benefit of the holders of the Class P Certificates, by depositing such amount into the Certificate Account no later than the Deposit Date immediately following the Prepayment Period in which such Principal Prepayment on the related Mortgage Loan or such change in law has occurred, net of any Servicer Prepayment Charge Payment Amount made by the applicable Servicer with respect to the related Mortgage Loan in lieu of collection of such Prepayment Charge.

Section 1.5.

Grant Clause.  

It is intended that the conveyance of the Seller’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and other property conveyed pursuant to this Agreement on the Closing Date and any Transfer Date shall constitute, and shall be construed as, a sale of such property and not a grant of a security interest to secure a loan.  However, if any such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan, it is intended that:  (a) the rights and obligations of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (b) the Seller hereby grants to the Depositor a first priority security interest to secure payment of an obligation in an amount equal to the purchase price set forth in Section 1.01(a) in all of the Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, the Mortgage Loans and other property; and (c) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.

Section 1.6.

Assignment by Depositor.  

Concurrently with the execution of this Agreement, the Depositor shall assign its interest under this Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, and the Trustee then shall succeed to all rights of the Depositor under this Agreement.  All references to the rights of the Depositor in this Agreement shall be deemed to be for the benefit of and exercisable by its assignee or designee, specifically including the Trustee.

(c)

It shall not be necessary for the consent of Certificateholders under this Section 2.03 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof.  The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Certificateholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.

Section 2.7.

Headings Not to Affect Interpretation.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than LPMI Loans) with a loan-to-value ratio at origination in excess of 80%, the Servicer shall maintain or cause the Mortgagor to maintain (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance) in full force and effect a PMI Policy, and shall pay or shall cause the Mortgagor to pay the premium thereon on a timely basis, until the LTV of such Mortgage Loan is reduced to 80%.  In the event that such PMI Policy shall be terminated, the Servicer shall obtain from another Qualified Insurer a comparable replacement policy, with a total coverage equal to the remaining coverage of such terminated PMI Policy, at substantially the same fee level.  The Servicer shall not take any action which would result in noncoverage under any applicable PMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer wou ld have been covered thereunder.  In connection with any assumption or substitution agreements entered into or to be entered into with respect to a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the related PMI Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such PMI Policy and shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage under such PMI Policy.  If such PMI Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement PMI Policy as provided above.

(b)

With respect to each Mortgage Loan covered by a PMI Policy or LPMI Policy, the Servicer shall take all such actions on behalf of the Trustee as are necessary to service, maintain and administer the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with either such policy and to enforce the rights under such policy.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the Servicer shall have full authority on behalf of the Trust Fund to do anything it deems appropriate or desirable in connection with the servicing, maintenance and administration of such policy; provided that the Servicer shall not take, or permit any subservicer to modify or assume, a Mortgage Loan covered by a LPMI Policy or PMI Policy or take any other action with respect to such Mortgage Loan which would result in non-coverage under such policy of any loss which, but for actions of the Servicer or the subservicers, would have been covered thereunder.  If the Qualified Insurer fails to pay a claim under a LPMI Policy or PMI Policy as a result of a breach by the Servicer or subservicer of its obligations hereunder or under either such policy, the Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Custodial Account on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance Date an amount equal to such unpaid claim from its own funds without any rights to reimbursement from the Trust Fund.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Qualified Insurers and shall use its Best Efforts to furnish all reasonable evidence and information in the possession of the Servicer to which the Servicer has access with respect to the related Mortgage Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in and LPMI Policy or PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any reports to the related Qualified Insurer until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information fr om the Seller to appropriately code its servicing systems in accordance with the Qualified Insurer’s requirements.

(c)

In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Trustee, claims to the Qualified Insurer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such PMI Policy or LPMI Policy and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan.  Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy shall be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(xii), subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.04.

(d)

The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents (within three (3) Business Days upon request from the Servicer) in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer any PMI or LPMI Policy; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such power of attorney.

Section 3.08

Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Servicer shall keep in force during the term of this Agreement a Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy.  Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall be maintained with recognized insurers and shall be in such form and amount as would permit the Servicer to be qualified as a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac seller-servicer and shall by its terms not be cancelable without thirty days’ prior written notice to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.  The Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an affiliate of the  Servicer has such errors and omissions and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Servicer.  The Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer a copy of each such bond and insu rance policy if (i) the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer so request and (ii) the Servicer is not an affiliate of Lehman Brothers Inc. at the time of such request.

Section 3.09

Notification of Adjustments.

With respect to each Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Interest Rate on the related interest rate adjustment date and shall adjust the Monthly Payment on the related mortgage payment adjustment date, if applicable, 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 and Monthly Payment adjustments.  The Servicer shall promptly, upon written request therefor, deliver to the Master Servicer 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 t he Master Servicer that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate or Monthly Payment 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 thereby.

Section 3.10

Completion and Recordation of Assignments of Mortgage.

As soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the Servicing Transfer Date or the date on which a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan is delivered pursuant to Section 2.05 of the Trust Agreement, as applicable (but in no event more than 90 days thereafter except to the extent delays are caused by the applicable public recording office), the Servicer shall cause the endorsements on the Mortgage Note (if applicable) and the Assignments of Mortgage (subject to Section 3.01(a)), to be completed in the name of the Trustee (or MERS, as applicable).

Section 3.11

Protection of Accounts.

The Servicer may transfer any Custodial Account or any Escrow Account to a different Eligible Institution from time to time, provided that in the event the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account is held in a depository institution or trust company that ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer shall transfer such Custodial Account or Escrow Account, as the case may be, to an Eligible Institution.  The Servicer shall give notice to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of any change in the location of the Custodial Account.

The Servicer shall bear any expenses, losses or damages sustained by the Master Servicer or the Trustee if the Custodial Account and/or the Escrow Account are not demand deposit accounts.

Amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account and the Escrow Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Eligible Investments.  Any such Eligible Investment shall mature no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the related Remittance Date; provided, however, that if such Eligible Investment is an obligation of an Eligible Institution (other than the Servicer) that maintains the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account, then such Eligible Investment may mature on the related Remittance Date.  Any such Eligible Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Trustee.  All income on or gain realized from any such Eligible Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer.  Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account, by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized.

Section 3.12

Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan which provides for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, sewer rents, and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of PMI Policy and LPMI Policy (if any) premiums 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, 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.  The Servicer shall not be required to maintain records with respect to the payment of the LP MI Premiums unless the Servicer shall be required to make payment of such premiums and such requirements shall be indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to each applicable Mortgage Loan.  The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the timely payment of all such bills, shall effect timely payment of all such charges irrespective of each Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments, and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.  With regard to any Mortgage Loans for which the Mortgagor is not required to escrow Escrow Payments with the Servicer, the Servicer shall use reasonable efforts consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor at the time they first became due and shall insure that the Mortgaged Property is not lost to a tax lien as a result of nonpayment and that such Mortgage is not left uninsured and shall make advances from its own funds to e ffect any such delinquent payments to avoid the lapse of insurance coverage on the Mortgaged Property or to avoid the imposition of a tax lien.

Section 3.13

Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, in an amount which is at least equal to the greater of (i) the then outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (ii) an amount such that the proceeds thereof shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor or the loss payee from becoming a co-insurer.

If upon origination of the Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgaged Property was located in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood 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 with a generally acceptable insurance carrier in an amount representing coverage equal to the lesser of (i) the minimum amount required, under the terms of coverage, to compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement cost basis (or the unpaid balance of the mortgage if replacement cost coverage is not available for the type of building insured) and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended.  If at any time during the term of t he Mortgage Loan, the Servicer determines in accordance with applicable law and pursuant to the Fannie Mae Guides that a Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area and is not covered by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than the amount required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Servicer shall notify the related Mortgagor that the Mortgagor must obtain such flood insurance coverage, and if said Mortgagor fails to obtain the required flood insurance coverage within forty-five (45) days after such notification, the Servicer shall force place the required flood insurance on the Mortgagor’s behalf.

Section 3.14

Maintenance of Mortgage Impairment Insurance.

In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy (a “Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy”) insuring against losses arising from fire and hazards covered under extended coverage on all of the Mortgage Loans, then, to the extent such Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Section 3.13 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 3.13, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 3.13.  Any amounts collect by the Servicer under any such Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy relating to a Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Custodial Account or Escrow Account subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.04 or 3.06.  Such Mortgage Impairment Insurance 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 3.13, 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 such blanket policy because of such deductible clause, such amount to deposited from the Servicer’s funds, without reimbursement therefore.

Section 3.15

Restoration of Mortgaged Property.

The Servicer need not obtain the approval of the Trustee or the Master Servicer prior to releasing any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the Mortgagor to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property if such release is in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  At a minimum, with respect to claims greater than $10,000, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:

(i)

the Servicer shall receive satisfactory independent verification of completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;

(ii)

the Servicer shall take all steps necessary to preserve the priority of the lien of the Mortgage, including, but not limited to requiring waivers with respect to mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens;

(iii)

the Servicer shall verify that the Mortgage Loan is not 60 or more days Delinquent; and

(iv)

pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in the Escrow Account.

With respect to claims of $10,000 or less, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:

(i)

the related Mortgagor shall provide an affidavit verifying the completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;

(ii)

the Servicer shall verify the total amount of the claim with the applicable insurance company; and

(iii)

the Servicer shall verify that the Mortgage Loan is not 60 or more days delinquent.  If the account is 60 or more days delinquent, pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in the Escrow Account.

Section 3.16

Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

In the event that title to any 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 Trustee or its nominee (or MERS, as applicable), or in the event the Trustee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer (with a copy delivered to the Trustee) from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located.  The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is bei ng held as nominee for the Trustee.

The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.  The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall 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.  The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trustee.  If the Servicer determines that it is in the best interest of the Trustee to not proceed with foreclosure or accept a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer shall have the right to do so, whereupon the related Mortgage Loan shall be deemed to be finally liquidated and the Servicer shall have the right to release the lien of the Mortgage on the related Mortgage Property and the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for all outstanding unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances from the Custodial Account in accordance with Section 3.04(viii).

The Servicer may permit an obligor to pay off a non-performing Mortgage Loan at less than its unpaid principal balance if such discounted payoff is in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and the Servicer believes that such discounted payoff is in the best interest of the Trust Fund; provided that in the case of any proposed discounted payoff, the Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, by telecopy and telephone, of the proposed discounted payoff.  The Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer shall each be deemed to have approved the discounted payoff of any Mortgage Loan unless either of the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer notifies the Servicer in writing, within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of the related notice, that it disapproves of the discounted payoff, in which case the Servicer shall not proceed with such discounted pay off.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.16, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Master Servicer or NIMS Insurer otherwise requests, an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property to be conducted by a qualified inspector shall be arranged by the Servicer.  Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer with a written report of such environmental inspection.  In the event that the environmental inspection report indicates that the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  In the event that the environmental inspection report is inconclusive as to the whether or not the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not, without the prior approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  In such instance, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer shall be deemed to have approved such foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure unless either party notifies the Servicer in writing, within two (2) Business Days after its receipt of written notice of the proposed foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure from the Servicer, that it disapproves of the related foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  The Servicer shall be reimbursed for all Servicing Advances made pursuant to this paragraph with respect to the related Mortgaged Property from the Custodial Account.

Subject to the approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer as described in this paragraph, 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 Trust Fund.  Prior to acceptance by the Servicer of an offer to sell any REO Property, the Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of such offer in writing which notification shall set forth all material terms of said offer (each a “Notice of Sale”).  The Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer shall be deemed to have approved the sale of any REO Property unless either notifies the Servicer in writing, within 2 Business Days after its receipt of the related Notice of Sale, that it disapproves of the related sale, in which case the Servicer shall not proceed with such sale.  With respect to any REO Property, upon a REO Disposition, the Servicer shall be entitled to retain from REO Disposition Proceeds a disposition fee equal to $1,500.

In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service (and provide a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer) to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC.  If the Servicer has received such an extension (and provided a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer), then the Servicer shall continue to atte mpt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”).  If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending 3 months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value, as acceptable to the NIMS Insurer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be.  The Trustee shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such grant of extension.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would:  (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in 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.

The Servicer shall withdraw from the Custodial Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to the Fannie Mae Guides.  The Servicer shall make monthly distributions on each Remittance Date to the Master Servicer of the net cash flow from the REO Property (which shall equal the revenues from such REO Property net of the expenses described in this Section 3.16 and of any reserves reasonably required from time to time to be maintained to satisfy anticipated liabilities for such expenses).

Section 3.17

Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 4.02, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager and the NIMS Insurer on or before the Remittance Date each month a statement with respect to any REO Property covering the operation of such REO Property for the previous month and the Servicer’s efforts in connection with the sale of such REO Property and any rental of such REO Property incidental to the sale thereof for the previous month.  That statement shall be accompanied by such other information as either the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer shall reasonably request.

Section 3.18

MERS.

(a)

The Servicer shall use its Best Efforts to cause the Trustee to be identified as the owner of each MERS Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS for purposes of the system of recording transfers of beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS.

(b)

The Servicer shall maintain in good standing its membership in MERS.  In addition, the Servicer shall comply with all rules, policies and procedures of MERS, including the Rules of Membership, as amended, and the MERS Procedures Manual, as amended.  If the Servicer fails to maintain its membership in MERS in good standing, or otherwise elects to terminate its membership in MERS, the costs associated with termination of such membership shall be borne by the Servicer.  

(c)

With respect to all MERS Mortgage Loans serviced hereunder, the Servicer shall promptly notify MERS as to any transfer of beneficial ownership in such Mortgage Loans of which the Servicer has notice.

(d)

With respect to all MERS Mortgage Loans serviced hereunder, the Servicer shall notify MERS as to any transfer of servicing pursuant to Section 9.01 within 10 Business Days of such transfer of servicing.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee, the Master Servicer and any successor Servicer to the extent necessary to ensure that such transfer of servicing is appropriately reflected on the MERS system.

Section 3.19

Waiver of Prepayment Penalties.

Except as provided below, the Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge with respect to any Mortgage Loan.  If the Servicer or its designee fails to collect a Prepayment Charge at the time of the related prepayment of any Mortgage Loan subject to such Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall pay to the Trust Fund at such time (by deposit to the Trust Custodial Account) an amount equal to the amount of the Prepayment Charge not collected; provided, however, the Servicer shall not have any obligation to pay the amount of any uncollected Prepayment Charge under this Section 3.19 if the failure to collect such amount is the result of inaccurate or incomplete information on the Prepayment Charge Schedule provided by LBH and which is included as part of the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A.  Notwithstanding the above, th e Servicer or its designee may waive (and shall waive, in the case of (iii) below) a Prepayment Charge without paying to the Trust Fund the amount of such Prepayment Charge only if the related prepayment is not the result of a refinancing by the Servicer or its designee and such waiver (i) relates to a defaulted Mortgage Loan or a reasonably foreseeable default, such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans to the Mortgage Loans, and such waiver, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would maximize recovery of total proceeds from the Mortgage Loan, taking into account the amount of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) relates to a prepayment charge the collection of which, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would be a violation of applicable laws or (iii) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, any Prepayment Charge in any instance when a Mortgage Loan is in foreclosure.

Section 3.20

Safeguarding Customer Information.

The Servicer has implemented and will maintain security measures designed to meet the objectives of the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information published in final form on February 1, 2001, 66 Fed. Reg. 8616 and the rules promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time (the “Guidelines”).  

The Servicer shall promptly provide the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer information reasonably available to it regarding such security measures upon the reasonable request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer which information shall include, but not be limited to, any Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70 report covering the Servicer’s operations, and any other audit reports, summaries of test results or equivalent measures taken by the Servicer with respect to its security measures to the extent reasonably necessary in order for the Seller to satisfy its obligations under the Guidelines.

Section 3.21

Superior Liens.

The Servicer shall monitor the status of each Superior Lien in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  If necessary to comply with Accepted Servicing Practices and permitted by applicable law, the Servicer shall file (or cause to be filed) a request for notice of any action by a superior lienholder under a Superior Lien for the protection of the Trustee's interest, where permitted by local law and whenever applicable state law does not require that a junior lienholder be named as a party defendant in foreclosure proceedings in order to foreclose such junior lienholder's equity of redemption.

If the Servicer is notified that any superior lienholder has accelerated or intends to accelerate the obligations secured by the Superior Lien, or has declared or intends to declare a default under the mortgage or the promissory note secured thereby, or has filed or intends to file an election to have the Mortgaged Property sold or foreclosed, the Servicer shall take, on behalf of the Trust, whatever actions are necessary to protect the interests of the Trust Fund in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  The Servicer shall not make such a Servicing Advance except to the extent that it determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such advance would be recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds on the related Second Lien Mortgage Loan and in no event in an amount that is greater than the then outstanding principal balance of the related Second Lien Mortgage Loan. &nbs p;The Servicer shall thereafter take such action as is necessary to recover the amount so advanced.

ARTICLE IV.

In addition, not more than 60 days after the end of each calendar year, commencing December 31, 2004, the Servicer shall provide (as such information becomes reasonably available to the Servicer) to the Master Servicer, and the NIMS Insurer such information concerning the Mortgage Loans and annual remittances to the Master Servicer therefrom as is necessary for the Securities Administrator to prepare the Trust Fund’s federal income tax return and for any investor in the Certificates to prepare any required tax return.  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 to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the NIMS Insurer pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.  The Servicer shall also provide to the Secur ities Administrator such information as may be requested by it and required for the completion of any tax reporting responsibility of the Securities Administrator within such reasonable time frame as shall enable the Securities Administrator to timely file each Schedule Q (or other applicable tax report or return) required to be filed by it.

Section 4.03

Monthly Advances by Servicer.

On the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds or from amounts held for future distribution, or both, an amount equal to all Monthly Payments (in the case of Simple Interest Mortgage Loans, solely the portion of the Monthly Payment attributable to interest) 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.  Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be replaced 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 remittances to the Master Servicer required to be made on such Remittance Date.  The Servicer shall keep appropriate records of s uch amounts and will provide such records to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer upon request.  No provision in this Agreement shall be construed as limiting the Servicer’s right to (i) pass through late collections on the related Mortgage Loans in lieu of making Monthly Advances or (ii) reimburse itself for such Monthly Advances from late collections on the related Mortgage Loans.

The Servicer’s obligation to make such Monthly Advances as to any Mortgage Loan will continue through the last Monthly Payment due prior to the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan, or through the last Remittance Date prior to the Remittance Date for the distribution of all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds) with respect to the related Mortgage Loan unless the Servicer deems such Monthly Advance to be non-recoverable, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Master Servicer.

(a)

On or before March 15 of each year, beginning with March 15, 2005, the Servicer, at its own expense, will deliver to the Seller, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer (i) a Servicing Officer’s certificate stating, as to each signer thereof, that (1) a review of the activities of the Servicer during such preceding fiscal year and of performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers’ supervision, and (2) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement for such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of all such obligations, specifying each such default known to such officers and the nature and status thereof including the steps being taken by the Servicer to remedy such default or (ii) such other certificates as may be requir ed under applicable law or regulation.

(c)

The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer, the Depositor and their respective officers, directors, agents and affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach by the Servicer or any of its officers, directors, agents or affiliates of its obligations under this Section 5.03 or the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Servicer in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Master Servicer and/or the Depositor, then the Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Master Servicer and/or the Depositor as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Master Servicer and/or the Deposit or in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Master Servicer and/or the Depositor on the one hand and the Servicer on the other in connection with a breach of the Servicer’s obligations under this Section 5.03 or the Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

Section 5.04

Transfers of Mortgaged Property.

The Servicer shall use its best efforts to enforce any “due on sale” provision contained in any Mortgage or Mortgage Note and to deny assumption by the person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be sold whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains liable on the Mortgage and the Mortgage Note; provided that, if in the Servicer’s prudent business judgment, it determines that an assumption of the Mortgage Loan is in the best interests of the Trust Fund, it shall deliver notice of such determination to the Master Servicer and may permit such assumption if approved by the Master Servicer.  When the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, to the extent it has knowledge of such conveyance, so long as the Master Servicer has not consented to an assumption in acc ordance with the preceding sentence, exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due on sale” clause applicable thereto, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to take such action if the Servicer, in its prudent business judgment, believes it is not in the best interests of the Trust Fund and shall 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 PMI Policy or LPMI Policy, if any.

If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause or if the Master Servicer approves such assumption pursuant to the preceding paragraph, the Servicer shall enter into (i) an assumption and modification agreement with the person to whom such property has been conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and the original Mortgagor remains liable thereon or (ii) in the event the Servicer is unable under applicable law to require that the original Mortgagor remain liable under the Mortgage Note and the Servicer has the prior consent of the primary mortgage guaranty insurer, a substitution of liability agreement with the owner of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and the owner of the Mortgaged Property is substituted as Mortgagor an d becomes liable under the Mortgage Note; provided that no such substitutions should be permitted unless such person satisfies the underwriting criteria of the Servicer and has a credit risk rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor.  The Mortgage Loan, as assumed, shall conform in all respects to the requirements, representations and warranties of this Agreement.  The Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer that any such assumption or substitution agreement has been contemplated by forwarding to the Master Servicer a copy of such assumption or substitution agreement (indicating the Mortgage File to which it relates).  The Servicer shall forward an original copy of such agreement to the related Custodian to be held by such Custodian with the other documents related to such Mortgage Loan.  The Servicer shall be responsible for recording any such assumption or substitution agreements.  In connection with any such assumption or substitution agreement, the Monthly Payment on the related Mortgage Loan shall not be changed but shall remain as in effect immediately prior to the assumption or substitution, the Mortgage Interest Rate, the stated maturity or the outstanding principal amount of such Mortgage Loan shall not be changed nor shall any required monthly payments of principal or interest be deferred or forgiven.  Any assumption fee collected by the Servicer for entering into an assumption agreement shall be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.  In connection with any such assumption, none of the Mortgage Interest Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note, the term of the Mortgage Loan or the outstanding principal amount of the Mortgage Loan shall be changed.

Section 6.04

Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC Status.

In the event that any REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Holder of the related Residual Certificate, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Trustee, the Depositor or the Holder of such Residual Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the Servicer has relied.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate, the Trustee and the Trust Fund or the NIMS Insurer now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, and (3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates).

ARTICLE VII.

THE SERVICER

Section 7.01

Merger or Consolidation of the Servicer.

The Servicer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation, and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this Agreement.

Any Person into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Servicer, shall, with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and NIMS Insurer be the successor of the Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person shall be an institution (i) having a net worth of not less than $25,000,000, and (ii) which is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and which is a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac-approved servicer in good standing.  

Section 7.02

Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others.

Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor or the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in strict compliance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability, provided, however, that the Servicer may, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer, undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto.  In such event, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Fund for the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.

Section 7.03

Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by the Servicer.

The Seller has entered into this Agreement with the Servicer in reliance upon the independent status of the Servicer, and the representations as to the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plant, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing, and the continuance thereof.  Therefore, the Servicer shall neither assign its rights under this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer which consent, in the case of an assignment of rights or delegation of duties, shall be granted or withheld in the discretion of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and which consent, in the case of a sale or dis position of all or substantially all of the property or assets of the Servicer, shall not be unreasonably withheld by any of them; provided, that in each case, there must be delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing or sale or disposition of assets will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer, without the consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, may retain third party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and administration, collection services and similar functions; provided, that the retention of such contractors by Servicer shall not limit the obligation of the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Servicer, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Servicer.  Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to each of them.  No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 9.01.

Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 7.03, in the event that the Servicer either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, then such parties shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice given as set forth in Section 8.01, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Servicer or any third party.

Section 7.04

Subservicing Agreements and Successor Subservicer.

(a)

The Servicer may enter into subservicing agreements for any servicing and administration of the  Mortgage Loans with any institution which (i) is an approved Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac Seller/Servicer as indicated in writing, (ii) which represents and warrants that it is in compliance with the laws of each state as necessary to enable it to perform its obligations under such subservicing agreement and (iii) which is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer.  For this purpose, subservicing shall not be deemed to include the use of a tax service, or services for reconveyance, insurance or brokering REO Property or the retention of third party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and administration, collection services and similar funct ions.  The Servicer shall give prior written notice to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of the appointment of any subservicer and shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer a copy of such subservicing agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on Mortgage Loans immediately upon receipt by any subservicer of such payments.  Any such subservicing agreement shall be acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement.  Each subservicing agreement shall provide that a successor Servicer shall have the option to terminate such agreement without payment of any fees if the predecessor Servicer is terminated or resigns.  

(b)

The Servicer, with the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, may terminate any subservicing agreement to which it is a party in accordance with the terms and conditions of such subservicing agreement and either itself directly service the related Mortgage Loans or enter into a subservicing agreement with a successor subservicer that qualifies under Section 7.04(a).

(c)

Notwithstanding any subservicing agreement or the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a subservicer or reference to actions taken through a subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such subservicing agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.  The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

ARTICLE VIII.

TERMINATION

Section 8.01

Termination for Cause.

This Agreement shall be terminable at the option of the Seller or the Master Servicer if any of the following events of default exist on the part of the Servicer:

(i)

any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Master Servicer any payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of two Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer; or

(ii)

failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days; or

(iii)

failure by the Servicer to maintain its license to do business or service residential mortgage loans in any jurisdiction, if required by such jurisdiction, where the Mortgaged Properties are located; or

(iv)

a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, including bankruptcy, marshaling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or

(v)

the Servicer shall consent 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 Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)

the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or cease its normal business operations for three Business Days; or

(vii)

the Servicer ceases to meet the qualifications of a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac seller/servicer; or

(viii)

the Servicer attempts to assign the servicing of the Mortgage Loans or its right to servicing compensation hereunder or the Servicer attempts to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets or to assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or to delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, in each case without complying fully with the provisions of Section 7.03; or

(ix)

the Servicer’s residential primary servicer rating for servicing of subprime mortgage loan issued by any of the Rating Agencies is reduced below its rating in effect on the Closing Date or such rating is withdrawn; provided, however, that if the Servicer’s rating by any Rating Agency is reduced by not more than one level (e.g., from “strong” to “above average”) the Servicer shall have 180 days to cure such default by having the applicable Rating Agency restore the Servicer’s rating to its level in effect on the Closing Date.

In each and every such case, so long as an event of default shall not have been remedied within the applicable cure period, in addition to whatever rights the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer may have at law or equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, the Seller, the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, by notice in writing to the Servicer, may terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the servicing contract established hereby and the proceeds thereof.

Upon receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in a successor Servicer appointed by the Master Servicer with the consent of the other party and the NIMS Insurer.  Upon written request from the Master Servicer, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity designated by the Master Servicer any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, at the Servicer’s sole expense.  The Servicer shall coop erate with the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and such successor servicer in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

By a written notice the Seller or the Master Servicer with the consent of the other parties and the NIMS Insurer may waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences.  Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this 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.

Upon a termination for cause pursuant to Section 8.01, all unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances still owing the Servicer shall be paid by the Trust Fund as such amounts are received from the related Mortgage Loans.

Section 8.02

Termination Without Cause.

(a)

This Agreement shall terminate upon:  (i) the later of (a) the distribution of the final payment or liquidation proceeds on the last Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer (or advances by the Servicer for the same), and (b) the disposition of all REO Property acquired upon foreclosure of the last Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder, (ii) mutual consent of the Servicer, the Seller and the Master Servicer in writing provided such termination is also acceptable to the Rating Agencies and the NIMS Insurer or (iii) with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer at the discretion of the Seller.  Any such termination pursuant to clause (iii) above shall be with 30 days’ prior notice, in writing and delivered to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer by registered mail to the addresses set forth in Section 9.03 of this Agreement.  The Servicer shall comply with the termination procedures set forth in Sections 7.03, 8.01 and 9.01 hereof.  Neither the Master Servicer nor the NIMS Insurer shall have the right to terminate the Servicer pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 8.02(a).  In connection with a termination by the Seller pursuant to clause (iii) of this Section 8.02(a), the Servicer shall be reimbursed by the Seller for all unreimbursed out-of-pocket Servicing Advances, Monthly Advances and Servicing Fees and other reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs associated with any transfer of servicing at the time of such transfer of servicing.  All invoices received by the Servicer after termination will be forwarded to the Seller or the successor servicer for payment within thirty (30) days of receipt from the Servicer.

(b)

In the event that the Servicer decides to terminate its obligations under this Agreement as set forth in clause (ii) of Section 8.02(a), the Servicer agrees that it will continue to service the Mortgage Loans beyond the prescribed termination date until such time as the Master Servicer, using reasonable commercial efforts, is able to appoint a successor servicer acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and otherwise meeting the characteristics of Sections 7.01 and 9.01.

ARTICLE IX.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 9.01

Successor to the Servicer.

Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement (a) pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02(a)(ii), the Master Servicer shall (i) within 90 days of the Servicer’s notice of such termination, succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement; or (b) pursuant to a termination under Section 8.02(a)(iii), the Seller shall appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement.  Any successor to the Servicer shall be subject to the approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer shall be a member in good standing of the MERS system (if any of the Mortgage Loans are MERS Eligible Mortgage Loans, unless such Mortgage Loans are withdrawn from MERS and Assignments of Mortgage are recorded in favor of the Trustee at the expense of the successor Servicer).  Any approval of a successor servicer by the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer shall, if the successor servicer is not at that time a servicer of other Mortgage Loans for the Trust Fund, be conditioned upon the receipt by the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Seller and the Trustee of a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect t hat such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree, provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer under this Agreement.  In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned sections, 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 shal l 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 sections shall not become effective until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 9.01 and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Sections 6.01 and the remedies available to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller under Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 6.01, 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 shall be applicable to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.  Neither the Master Servicer, in its capacity as successor servicer, nor any other successor servicer shall be responsible for the lack of information and/or documents that it cannot otherwise obtain through reasonable efforts.

Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than 30 days of the appointment of a successor entity, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer and endorsement of the Mortgage Notes and related documents, and the preparation and recordation of Assignments of Mortgage.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the successor 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 (including a representation that the successor servicer is a member of MERS, unless none of the Mortgage Loans are MERS Mortgage Loans or MERS Eligible Mortgage Loans or any such Mortgage Loans have been withdrawn from MERS and Assignments of Mortgage are recorded in favor of the Trustee) and provide for the same remedies set forth in Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 herein and (ii) an assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the Servicer under this Agreement, 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 termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02 shall not affect any claims that the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer arising out of the Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such termination or resignation.  In addition, in the event any successor servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 8.02(a)(iii) of this Agreement, such successor servicer must satisfy the conditions relating to the transfer of servicing set forth in the Trust Agreement.

The Servicer shall deliver promptly to the successor servicer the funds in the Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Mortgage Loan documents 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.

Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, the Servicer shall notify the Seller and Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor of such appointment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.03.

Section 9.02

Costs.

The Seller shall pay the legal fees and expenses of its attorneys.  Costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transfer of the servicing responsibilities, including fees for delivering Servicing Files, shall be paid by the Seller.  Subject to Sections 2.02 and 3.01(a), the Seller, on behalf of the Depositor, shall pay the costs associated with the preparation, delivery and recording of Assignments of Mortgages.

Section 9.04

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 unenfor ceable 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 as close as possible to the economic effect of this Agreement without regard to such invalidity.

Section 9.05

No Personal Solicitation.  

From and after the Closing Date, the Servicer 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 on the Servicer’s behalf, to personally, by telephone or mail, solicit the borrower or obligor under any Mortgage Loan (on a targeted basis) for any purposes of prepayment, refinancing or modification of the related Mortgage Loan, provided, however, that this limitation shall not prohibit Servicer from soliciting such Mortgagor for purposes of prepayment, refinance or modification of any loan owned or serviced by Servicer other than a Mortgage Loan.  It is understood and agreed that, among other marketing activities, promotions undertaken by Servicer which are directed of the general public at large or which are directed generally to a segment of the then exi sting customers of Servicer or any of its direct or indirect subsidiaries (including, without limitation, the mailing of promotional materials to Servicer’s deposit customers by inserting such materials into customer account statements, mass mailings based on commercially acquired mailing lists and newspaper, radio and television advertisements) shall not constitute solicitation under this section.  In the event the Servicer does refinance any Mortgage Loan as a result of a violation of the requirements set forth in this Section 9.05, Servicer hereby agrees to pay to the Trust Fund an amount equal to the difference, if any, between the amount that the Trust Fund would have received if it had sold the Mortgage Loan to a third party, and the proceeds received by the Trust Fund as a result of such refinancing.

Section 9.06

Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts.  Each counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 9.07

Place of Delivery and Governing Law.

This Agreement shall be deemed in effect when a fully executed counterpart thereof is received by the Seller in the State of New York and shall be deemed to have been made in the State of New York.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

Section 9.08

Further Agreements.

The Seller, the Master Servicer and the Servicer each agree to execute and deliver to the other such reasonable and appropriate additional documents, instruments or agreements as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 9.09

Intention of the Parties.

It is the intention of the parties that the Seller is conveying, and the Servicer is receiving only a contract for servicing the Mortgage Loans.  Accordingly, the parties hereby acknowledge that the Trust Fund remains the sole and absolute owner of the Mortgage Loans and all rights (other than the servicing rights) related thereto.

Section 9.10

Successors and Assigns; Assignment of Servicing Agreement.

This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer and their respective successors and assigns.  This Agreement shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Servicer to a third party except in accordance with Section 7.03 and shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Seller, as applicable, without the consent of the NIMS Insurer except as and to the extent provided in Section 9.11.

Section 9.11

Assignment by The Seller.

The Seller shall have the right, upon notice to but without the consent of the Servicer, to assign, in whole or in part (but exclusive of such Seller’s rights as owner of the servicing rights relating to the Mortgage Loans), its interest under this Agreement to the Depositor, which in turn shall assign such rights to the Trustee, and the Trustee then shall succeed to all rights of such Seller under this Agreement.  All references to the Seller in this Agreement shall be deemed to include its assignee or designee and any subsequent assignee or designee, specifically including the Trustee, except with respect to the Seller’s retained servicing rights pursuant to Section 8.02(a)(iii).

The Seller shall have the right, upon notice to but without the consent of the Servicer, to assign, in whole or in part, its retained servicing rights.  All references to the Seller in this Agreement, in its capacity as an owner of servicing rights, shall be deemed to include the assignee or designee and any subsequent assignee or designee, of such Seller’s rights arising pursuant to Section 8.02(a)(iii).

Section 9.12

Amendment.

This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the written agreement signed by the Master Servicer, the Seller and the Servicer with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, provided that the party requesting such amendment shall, at its own expense, provide the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer and the Seller with an Opinion of Counsel that such amendment will not materially adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders in the Mortgage Loans or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  Any such amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect any the interest of the Certificateholders in the Mortgage Loans or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction, if the Trustee receives written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce, qualify or withdraw th e then current rating assigned to the Certificates and the NIM Securities (and any Opinion of Counsel received by the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer and the Seller in connection with any such amendment may rely expressly on such confirmation as the basis therefore); provided, however, this Agreement may be amended by the Servicer, the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Trustee from time to time without the delivery of an Opinion of Counsel described above to the extent necessary, in the judgment of the seller and its counsel, to comply with the SEC Rules.

Section 9.13

Waivers.

Subject

“Full-File” Reporting to Credit Repositories


Part IV, Section 107, of the servicing Guide currently requires servicers to report only 90-day delinquencies to the four major credit repositories.  To ensure that the repositories have up-to-date information for both servicing and origination activity, we have decided to begin requiring -- as of the month ending March 31, 1996 -- servicers to provide the credit repositories a “full-file” status report for the mortgages they service for us.

“Full-file” reporting requires that servicers submit a monthly report to each of the credit repositories to describe the exact status for each mortgage they service for us.  The status reported generally should be the one in effect as of the last business day of each month.  Servicers may, however, use a slightly later cut-off date -- for example, at the and of the first week of a month -- to assure that payment corrections, returned checks, and other adjustments related to the previous month’s activity can be appropriately reflected in their report for that month.  Statuses that must be reported for any given mortgage include the following: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, and charged-off.  (The credit repositories will provide the applicable codes for reporting these statuses to them.)  A listing of each of the majo r repositories to which “full-file” status reports must be sent is attached.


Servicers are responsible for the complete and accurate reporting of mortgage status information to the repositories and for resolving any disputes that arise about the information they report.  Servicers must respond promptly to any inquiries from borrowers regarding specific mortgage status information about them that was reported to the credit repositories.


Servicers should contact their Customer Account Team in their lead Fannie Mae regional office if they have any questions about this expanded reporting requirement.

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Servicer and Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB (the “Bank”) are parties to a Flow Servicing Agreement dated as of October 1, 2003 and a Flow Servicing Agreement dated as of February 1, 2003 (each, a “Bank Flow Servicing Agreement”), pursuant to which the Servicer services certain mortgage loans identified on Exhibit A hereto (the “Bank Mortgage Loans”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2004 (the “Assignment Agreement”), the Seller acquired from the Bank all of the Bank’s right, title and interest in and to the mortgage loans currently serviced under each Bank Flow Servicing Agreement and assumed for the benefit of the Servicer and the Bank the rights and obligations of the Bank as owner of such mortgage loans pursuant to each Bank Flow Servicing Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Servicer and the Seller are parties to a Flow Servicing Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2003 (the “Holdings Flow Servicing Agreement”), pursuant to which the Servicer services certain of the mortgage loans identified on Exhibit A hereto (the “Holdings Mortgage Loans,” and together with the Bank Mortgage Loans, the “Mortgage Loans”).

WHEREAS, the Seller has conveyed the Mortgage Loans on a servicing-retained basis to Structured Asset Securities Corporation (the “Depositor”), which in turn has conveyed the Mortgage Loans to LaSalle Bank National Association (the “Trustee”) under a trust agreement dated as of August 1, 2004 (the “Trust Agreement”), among the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as securities administrator (the “Securities Administrator”) and The Murrayhill Company, as credit risk manager (the “Credit Risk Manager”);

WHEREAS, from time to time certain other of the mortgage loans conveyed by the Depositor to the Trustee under the Trust Agreement on the Closing Date and serviced by other servicers may subsequent to the Closing Date be transferred to the Servicer for servicing under this Agreement, at which date Exhibit A hereto will be amended to include such mortgage loans which will then be considered “Mortgage Loans” under this Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Seller desires that the Servicer service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement, and the Servicer has agreed to do so, subject to the right of the Seller and of the Master Servicer to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder at any time and to the other conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Seller and the Servicer agree that the provisions of each Bank Flow Servicing Agreement and Holdings Flow Servicing Agreement shall not apply to such related Mortgage Loans for so long as such related Mortgage Loans remain subject to the provisions of the Trust Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Master Servicer shall be obligated under the Trust Agreement, among other things, to supervise the servicing of the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trustee, and shall have the right, under certain circumstances, to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Servicing Agreement upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default as provided herein;

WHEREAS, multiple classes of certificates (the “Certificates”), including the Class P and the Class X Certificates, will be issued on the Closing Date pursuant to the Trust Agreement and Lehman Brothers Inc. or a nominee thereof is expected to be the initial registered holder of the Class P and Class X Certificates;

WHEREAS, subsequent to the Closing Date Lehman Brothers Inc. intends to convey all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Class P and the Class X Certificates and all payments and all other proceeds received thereunder to an owner trust or other special purpose entity in which it will hold the sole equity interest, which owner trust or other special purpose entity will issue net interest margin securities (“NIM Securities”) through an indenture trust, such NIM Securities secured, in part, by the payments on such Certificates (the “NIMS Transaction”);

WHEREAS, one or more insurers (collectively, the “NIMS Insurer”) may each issue one or more insurance policies guaranteeing certain payments under the NIM Securities to be issued pursuant to the indenture in the NIMS Transaction;

WHEREAS, in the event there may be two or more individual insurers it is intended that the rights extended to the NIMS Insurer pursuant to this Agreement be allocated among two or more individual insurers that issue insurance policies in connection with the NIMS Transaction through a NIMS Insurance Agreement by and among such insurers and the parties hereto;

WHEREAS, the Seller and the Servicer acknowledge and agree that the Seller will assign all of its rights and delegate all of its obligations hereunder (excluding the Seller’s rights to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder, and the Seller’s obligations pursuant to Section 9.02, all of which rights and obligations will remain with the Seller or be delegated or assigned by the Master Servicer) to the Trustee, and that each reference herein to the Seller is intended, unless otherwise specified, to mean the Seller or the Trustee, as assignee, whichever is the owner of the Mortgage Loans from time to time;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Servicer hereby agree as follows:

SERVICING OF THE MORTGAGE LOANS

Section 3.01.

Servicer to Service.  

The Servicer shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans from and after the Closing Date, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable, consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with the Servicing Standard.  

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 accordance with the Servicing Standard such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the Trust Fund; provided, however, that unless the Servicer has obtained the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, defer or forgive the payment of principal or interest, reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except for actual payments of principal), or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan.  In the event of any such modification which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments on any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment has been deferred, make a Monthly Advance in accordance with Section 4.03, in an amount equal to the difference between (a) such month’s principal and one month’s interest at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate on the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (b) the amount paid by the Mortgagor.  The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for such advances to the same extent as for all other advances made pursuant to Section 3.04.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered, to execute and deliver on behalf of itself and the Trustee, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, wi th respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties.  If reasonably required by the Servicer, the Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with a power of attorney in a form similar to Exhibit H hereto (provided that any such power of attorney shall be acceptable to the Trustee), and other documents, furnished to it by the Servicer and reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement; provided that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under any such powers of attorney.  Promptly after the execution of any assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall forward to the Master Servicer copies of any documents evidencing such assumption, modification, consolidation or extension.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would cause any REMIC created under the Trust Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the Code.

The Servicer is authorized, without the prior approval of the Master Servicer or the Seller, to consent to the refinancing of any Superior Lien on Mortgaged Property, provided that (i) the resulting Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio of such Second Lien Mortgage Loan is no higher than the Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio prior to such refinancing; (ii) the interest rate, or in the case of any Superior Lien which is an adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, the applicable Maximum Rate which can be charged under the related Mortgage Note is no more than 2.00% higher than the interest rate or the Maximum Rate, as the case may be, on the mortgage loan evidencing the existing Superior Lien immediately prior to the date of such refinancing; and (iii) the Mortgage Loan evidencing the Superior Lien is not subject to negative amortization.

The Servicer shall not without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceedings solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Servicer’s representative capacity or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and which actually does cause, the Trustee to be registered to do business in any state.  The Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for any and all costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the negligent or willful misuse of such powers of attorney by the Servicer.

In servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall employ procedures (including collection procedures) and exercise the same care that it would employ and exercise in servicing and administering similar mortgage loans for other institutional investors, giving due consideration to the Servicing Standard where such practices do not conflict with the requirements of this Agreement.

Section 3.02.

Collection and Liquidation of Mortgage Loans.  

Continuously from the Closing Date, until the date each Mortgage Loan ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the Servicer shall proceed diligently to collect all payments due under each of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall become due and payable and shall take special care in ascertaining and estimating Escrow Payments and all other charges that will become due and payable with respect to the Mortgage Loans and each related Mortgaged Property, 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.

The Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with the Servicing Standard, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of such Mortgaged Properties as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.01.  The Servicer shall use its best efforts to realize upon defaulted Mortgage Loans in such a manner as will maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the Trustee, taking into account, among other things, the timing of foreclosure proceedings.  The foregoing is subject to the provisions that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property unless it shall determine in its discretion (i) that such restoration wil l increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable by the Servicer through Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds from the related Mortgaged Property.  In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan and not postponed pursuant to Section 3.01 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 (1) the Servicer would take for other institutional investors under similar circumstances with respect to a similar mortgage loan, (2) shall be consistent with the Servicing Standard, (3) the Servicer shall determine prudently to be in the best interest of the Trust Fund, and (4) is consistent with any related LPMI Policy.  In the event that any payment due un der any Mortgage Loan is not postponed pursuant to Section 3.01 and remains delinquent for a period of one hundred and five (105) days or any other default continues for a period of one hundred and five (105) days beyond the expiration of any grace or cure period, the Servicer shall commence foreclosure proceedings.  The Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer in writing of the commencement of foreclosure proceedings on a monthly basis no later than the fifth Business Day of each month (which notification may be included within the monthly reports submitted to the Master Servicer under this Agreement).  In such connection, the Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section 3.04.

Notwithstanding the generality of the preceding paragraph, the Servicer shall take such actions generally in accordance with the Servicer’s established default timeline and in accordance with the Servicing Standard with respect to each Mortgagor for which there is a delinquency until such time as such Mortgagor is current with all payments due under the Mortgage Loan.

With respect to a HOEPA Claim Loan, upon receipt of notice from the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Mortgagor that the Mortgagor has instituted a claim that the related Mortgage Loan was originated in violation of HOEPA, the Servicer shall, unless otherwise directed by such party, suspend all of its loss mitigation activities with respect to such Mortgage Loan until such time as such claim has been resolved.  In the event that such party provides direction to the Servicer, the Servicer shall continue to service such HOEPA Claim Loan pursuant to the Servicing Standard, provided that such direction is not inconsistent with the Servicing Standard.

Section 3.05.

Establishment of and Deposits to Escrow Account.  

The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to a Mortgage Loan constituting Escrow Payments separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled, “Chase Manhattan Mortgage Corporation in trust for LaSalle Bank National Association, as Trustee for the Structured Asset Investment Loan Trust, Series 2004-8”.  The Escrow Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts established with an Eligible Institution in a manner that shall provide maximum available insurance thereunder.  Nothing herein shall require the Servicer to compel a Mortgagor to establish an Escrow Account in violation of applicable law.  Funds deposited in the Escrow Account may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.06.  The creation of any Escrow Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form of Exhibit C hereto.  A copy of such certification or letter agreement shall be furnished to the Master Servicer and, if required, the NIMS Insurer.

The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts on a daily basis, and retain therein:

(i)

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

(ii)

all amounts representing Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Mortgaged Property.

The Servicer shall make withdrawals from the Escrow Account only to effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, as set forth in Section 3.06.  The Servicer shall be entitled to retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the depository institution, other than interest on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to the Mortgagor.  To the extent required by law, the Servicer shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow Account may be non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes.

Section 3.06.

Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account.  

Withdrawals from the Escrow Account or Accounts may be made by the Servicer only:

(i)

to effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, mortgage insurance premiums, condominium charges, fire and hazard insurance premiums or other items constituting Escrow Payments for the related Mortgage;

(ii)

to reimburse the Servicer for any Servicing Advance made by the Servicer with respect to a related Mortgage Loan, but only from amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan which represent late collections of Escrow Payments thereunder;

(iii)

to refund to any Mortgagor any funds found to be in excess of the amounts required under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan;

(iv)

to the extent permitted by applicable law, for transfer to the Custodial Account and application to reduce the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note;

(v)

for application to restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property in accordance with Section 3.15;

(vi)

to pay to the Servicer, or any Mortgagor to the extent required by law, any interest paid on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account; and

(vii)

to clear and terminate the Escrow Account on the termination of this Agreement.

The Servicer will be responsible for the administration of the Escrow Accounts and will be obligated to make Servicing Advances to the Escrow Account in respect of its obligations under this Section 3.06, reimbursable from the Escrow Accounts or Custodial Account to the extent not collected from the related Mortgagor, anything to the contrary notwithstanding, when and as necessary to avoid the lapse of insurance coverage on the Mortgaged Property, or which the Servicer knows, or in servicing the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the Servicing Standard should know, is necessary to avoid the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien.  If any such payment has not been made and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with respect to the Mortgage being imposed, the Servicer will advance or cause to be advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien on the Mortgaged Property in order to prevent loss of title to the Mortgaged Property.

Section 3.07.

Notification of Adjustments.  

With respect to each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Interest Rate on the related interest rate adjustment date and shall adjust the Monthly Payment on the related mortgage payment adjustment date, if applicable, 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 and Monthly Payment adjustments.  The Servicer shall promptly, upon written request therefor, deliver to the Master Servicer 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 Master Servicer that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate or Monthly Payment 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 Seller thereby.

Section 3.08.

Completion and Recordation of Assignment of Mortgage.  

To the extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Assignments of Mortgage is subject to recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in all the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the Mortgaged Properties are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office or elsewhere.  The cost of any such recordation by the Servicer shall be borne by the Seller.

Section 3.09.

Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges.  

(a)

With respect to each Mortgage Loan which provides for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, sewer rents, and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of fire and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges (including renewal premiums) (“Property Charges”) and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date, 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. The Servicer shall effect timely payment of all such charges irrespective of each Mortgagor 46;s faithful performance in the payment of the same or the making of the Escrow Payments.

(b)

To the extent that a Mortgage Loan does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall make advances from its own funds to effect payment of all Property Charges upon receipt of notice of any failure to pay on the part of the Mortgagor, or at such other time as the Servicer determines to be in the best interest of the Trust Fund, provided, that in any event the Servicer shall pay such charges on or before any date by which payment is necessary to preserve the lien status of the Mortgage.  The Servicer shall pay any late fee or penalty which is payable due to any delay in payment of any Property Charge to avoid a loss of the Mortgaged Property.

Section 3.10.

Protection of Accounts.  

The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account to a different Eligible Institution from time to time; provided that in the event the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account is held in a depository institution or trust company that ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer shall transfer such Custodial Account or Escrow Account, as the case may be, to an Eligible Institution.  Such transfer shall be made only upon obtaining the consent of the NIMS Insurer, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably, and the Servicer shall give notice to the Master Servicer of any change in the location of the Custodial Account.

The Servicer shall bear any expenses, losses or damages sustained by the Master Servicer or the Trustee if the Custodial Account and/or the Escrow Account are not demand deposit accounts.

Amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Eligible Investments.  Any such Eligible Investment shall mature no later than two (2) Business Days prior to the Remittance Date in each month; provided, however, that if such Eligible Investment is an obligation of an Eligible Institution (other than the Servicer) that maintains the Custodial Account, then such Eligible Investment may mature on the related Remittance Date.  Any such Eligible Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Trustee.  All income on or gain realized from any such Eligible Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer.  Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, by the Servicer out o f its own funds immediately as realized.  If, at any time, the amount on deposit in the Custodial Account exceeds the amount of the applicable FDIC insurance, such excess above the amount of the applicable FDIC insurance shall be invested in Eligible Investments.

Section 3.11.

Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer acceptable under the Servicing Standard against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (b) an amount such that the proceeds thereof shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor or the loss payee from becoming a co-insurer.

If upon origination of the Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgaged Property was located in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood 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 with a generally acceptable insurance carrier acceptable under the Servicing Standard in an amount representing coverage equal to the lesser of (i) the minimum amount required, under the terms of coverage, to compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement cost basis (or the unpaid balance of the mortgage if replacement cost coverage is not available for the type of building insured) and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. If at any time during the term of the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer determines in accordance with applicable law and pursuant to the Servicing Standard that a Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area and is not covered by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than the amount required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Servicer shall notify the related Mortgagor that the Mortgagor must obtain such flood insurance coverage, and if said Mortgagor fails to obtain the required flood insurance coverage within thirty (30) days after such notification, the Servicer shall immediately force place the required flood insurance on the Mortgagor’s behalf.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained on each Mortgaged Property such other or additional insurance as may be required pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance, or pursuant to the requirements of any private mortgage guaranty insurer, or as may be required to conform with the Servicing Standard.

In the event that the Master Servicer or the Servicer shall determine that the Mortgaged Property should be insured against loss or damage by hazards and risks not covered by the insurance required to be maintained by the Mortgagor pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, the Servicer shall communicate and consult with the Mortgagor with respect to the need for such insurance and bring to the Mortgagor’s attention the desirability of protection of the Mortgaged Property.

All policies required hereunder shall name the Servicer as loss payee and shall be endorsed with standard or union mortgagee clauses, without contribution, which shall provide for at least 30 days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in amount or material change in coverage.

The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies are generally acceptable under the Servicing Standard.  The Servicer shall determine that such policies provide sufficient risk coverage and amounts, that they insure the property owner, and that they properly describe the property address.  The Servicer shall furnish to the Mortgagor a formal notice of expiration of any such insurance in sufficient time for the Mortgagor to arrange for renewal coverage by the expiration date.

Pursuant to Section 3.04, 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 related Mortgaged Property, or property acquired in liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or to be released to the Mortgagor, in accordance with the Servicer’s normal servicing procedures as specified in Section 3.15) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.06.

Notwithstanding anything set forth in the preceding paragraph, the Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer and the Trust Fund for any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, fees and expenses that any such indemnified party may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Mortgagor (or the Servicer) to maintain hazard insurance or flood insurance with respect to the related Mortgaged Property which complies with the requirements of this section.

Section 3.12.

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 3.11 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 3.11, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 3.11.  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 3.05.  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 3.11, 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 deposited from the Servicer’s funds, without reimbursement therefor. Upon request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to such person 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer.

Section 3.13.

Maintenance of Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Servicer shall maintain with a carrier generally acceptable under the Servicing Standard, 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 (“Servicer Employees”).  Any such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker’s Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of such Servicer Employees.  Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy also shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the release or satis faction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby.  No provision of this Section 3.13 requiring such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement.  The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the corresponding amounts required by the Servicer.  Upon the request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to such party a certified true copy of such fidelity bond and insurance policy and a statement from the surety and the insurer that such fidelity bond and insurance policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer.

Section 3.14.

Inspections.

The Servicer shall inspect the Mortgaged Property as often as deemed necessary by the Servicer under the Servicing Standard to assure itself that the value of the Mortgaged Property is being preserved.  In addition, the Servicer shall inspect the Mortgaged Property and/or take such other actions as may be necessary or appropriate in accordance with the Servicing Standard or as may be required by the primary mortgage guaranty insurer.  The Servicer shall keep a written report of each such inspection.

Section 3.15.

Restoration of Mortgaged Property.

The Servicer need not obtain the approval of the Master Servicer or the Trustee prior to releasing any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the Mortgagor to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property if such release is in accordance with the Servicing Standard.  At a minimum, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:

(i)

the Servicer shall receive satisfactory independent verification of completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;

(ii)

the Servicer shall take all steps necessary to preserve the priority of the lien of the Mortgage, including, but not limited to requiring waivers with respect to mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens; and

(iii)

pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in the Escrow Account.

Section 3.16.

Maintenance of PMI and/or LPMI Policy; Claims.

(a)

The Servicer shall comply with all provisions of applicable state and federal law relating to the cancellation of, or collection of premiums with respect to, PMI Policies, including, but not limited to, the provisions of the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998, and all regulations promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time.  The Servicer shall be obligated to make premium payments with respect to (i) LPMI Policies, to the extent of the LPMI Fee set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to any LPMI Loans, which shall be paid out of the interest portion of the related Monthly Payment or, if a Monthly Payment is not made, from the Servicer’s own funds and (ii) PMI Policies required to be maintained by the Mortgagor rather than the Seller, if the Mortgagor is required but fails to pay any PMI Policy premium, which shall be paid from the Service r’s own funds.  Any premium payments made by the Servicer from its own funds pursuant to this Section 3.16(a) shall be recoverable by the Servicer as a Servicing Advance, subject to the reimbursement provisions of Section 3.04(iii).  

With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than LPMI Loans) with a loan-to-value ratio at origination in excess of 80%, the Servicer shall maintain or cause the Mortgagor to maintain (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance) in full force and effect a PMI Policy, and shall pay or shall cause the Mortgagor to pay the premium thereon on a timely basis, until the LTV of such Mortgage Loan is reduced to 80%.  In the event that such PMI Policy shall be terminated, the Servicer shall obtain from another Qualified Insurer a comparable replacement policy, with a total coverage equal to the remaining coverage of such terminated PMI Policy, at substantially the same fee level.  The Servicer shall not take any action which would result in noncoverage under any applicable PMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of th e Servicer would have been covered thereunder.  In connection with any assumption or substitution agreements entered into or to be entered into with respect to a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the related PMI Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such PMI Policy and shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage under such PMI Policy.  If such PMI Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement PMI Policy as provided above.

(b)

With respect to each Mortgage Loan covered by a PMI Policy or LPMI Policy, the Servicer shall take all such actions on behalf of the Trustee as are necessary to service, maintain and administer the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with such Policy and to enforce the rights under such Policy.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the Servicer shall have full authority on behalf of the Trust Fund to do anything it deems appropriate or desirable in connection with the servicing, maintenance and administration of such Policy; provided that the Servicer shall not take any action to permit any modification or assumption of a Mortgage Loan covered by a LPMI or PMI Policy, or take any other action with respect to such Mortgage Loan, which would result in non-coverage under such Policy of any loss which, but for actions of any Servicer or the subservicer, would have been covered thereunder.  If the Qualified Insurer fails to pay a claim under a LPMI or PMI Policy solely as a result of a breach by the Servicer or subservicer of its obligations hereunder or under such Policy, the Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Custodial Account on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance Date an amount equal to such unpaid claim from its own funds without any rights to reimbursement from the Trust Fund.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Qualified Insurers and shall furnish all reasonable evidence and information in the possession of the Servicer to which the Servicer has access with respect to the related Mortgage Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any LPMI Policy or PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any reports to the related Qualified Insurer until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from the Seller to appro priately code its servicing systems in accordance with the Qualified Insurer’s requirements.

(c)

In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Trustee, claims to the Qualified Insurer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such PMI Policy or LPMI Policy and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan.  Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy shall be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(xii), subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.04.

(d)

The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents (within three (3) Business Days upon request from the Servicer) in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer any PMI or LPMI Policy; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such power of attorney.

(e)

The Servicer shall deposit into the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(v) hereof all Insurance Proceeds received under the terms of a PMI Policy or an LPMI Policy.  

(f)

Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) and (b) above, the Servicer shall not take any action in regard to any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy inconsistent with the interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders or with the rights and interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders under this Agreement.

Section 3.17.

Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

In the event that title to any 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 Trustee or its nominee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, or in the event the Trustee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being he ld as nominee for the Trustee.

The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.  The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall 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.  The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.

If the Servicer hereafter becomes aware that a Mortgaged Property is an Environmental Problem Property, the Servicer will notify the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of the existence of the Environmental Problem Property.  Additionally, the Servicer shall set forth in such notice a description of such problem, a recommendation to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer relating to the proposed action regarding the Environmental Problem Property, and the Servicer shall carry out the recommendation set forth in such notice unless otherwise directed by the NIMS Insurer in writing within five (5) days after its receipt (or deemed receipt) of such notice in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 9.04 below.  The Master Servicer shall be provided a copy of the NIMS Insurer’s instructions to the Servicer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, th e Servicer shall obtain the Master Servicer’s and the NIMS Insurer’s written consent to any expenditures proposed to remediate Environmental Problem Properties or to defend any claims associated with Environmental Problem Properties if such expenses, in the aggregate, are expected to exceed $100,000.  Failure to provide written notice of disapproval of the expenditure within five (5) days of receipt (or deemed receipt) of such request for prepaid expenditures shall be deemed an approval of such expenditure.  The Master Servicer shall be provided with a copy of the NIMS Insurer’s instructions to the Servicer.  If the Servicer has received reliable instructions to the effect that a Property is an Environmental Problem Property (e.g., Servicer obtains a broker’s price opinion which reveals the potential for such problem), the Servicer will not accept a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure upon any such Property without first obtaining a preliminary environmental investigation for the P roperty satisfactory to the NIMS Insurer.

In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service (and provide a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer, if required, and the Master Servicer) to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC.  If the Servicer has received such an extension (and provided a copy of the same to the NIM S Insurer, if required, the Trustee and the Master Servicer), then the Servicer shall continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”).  If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value, as acceptable to the NIMS Insurer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be.  The Trustee shall (i) sign any document prepared and delivered to it by the Servicer or (ii) take any other action, in each case reasonably requested by the Servicer, which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such grant of extension.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would:  (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

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

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 or Section 4.03.

The Servicer shall make advances of all funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to Section 3.11, such advances to be reimbursed from the disposition or liquidation proceeds of the REO Property.  The Servicer shall make monthly distributions on each Remittance Date to the Master Servicer of the net cash flow from the REO Property (which shall equal the revenues from such REO Property net of the expenses described in this Section 3.17 and of any reserves reasonably required from time to time to be maintained to satisfy anticipated liabilities for such expenses).

Section 3.18.

Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 4.02, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager and, if required, the NIMS Insurer on or before the Remittance Date in each month a statement with respect to any REO Property covering the operation of such REO Property for the previous month and the Servicer’s efforts in connection with the sale of such REO Property and any rental of such REO Property incidental to the sale thereof for the previous month.  That statement shall be accompanied by such other information as either the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager or the NIMS Insurer shall reasonably request.

Section 3.19.

Liquidation Reports.

Upon the foreclosure sale of any Mortgaged Property or the acquisition thereof by the Trustee pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer shall submit to the Trustee and the Master Servicer a monthly liquidation report with respect to such Mortgaged Property.  In addition, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer a report setting forth Servicing Advances and other expenses incurred connection with the liquidation of any Mortgage Loan.

Section 3.20.

Following the foreclosure sale or abandonment of any Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall report such foreclosure or abandonment as required pursuant to Section 6050J of the Code.

Section 3.21.

Prepayment Charges.

The Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge with respect to any Mortgage Loan which contains a Prepayment Charge which prepays during the term of the charge.  If the Servicer or its designee fails to collect the Prepayment Charge upon any prepayment of any Mortgage Loan which contains a Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall pay the Trust Fund at such time (by deposit to the Custodial Account) an amount equal to amount of the Prepayment Charge which was not collected.  Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or its designee may waive (and shall waive, in the case of (ii)(d) below) a Prepayment Charge without paying the Trust Fund the amount of the Prepayment Charge if (i) the Mortgage Loan is in default (defined as 61 days or more delinquent) and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) if the prepayment is not a result of a refinancing by the Servicer or any of its affiliates and (a) the Mortgage Loan is foreseen to be in default and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (b) the collection of the Prepayment Charge would be in violation of applicable laws, (c) the collection of such Prepayment Charge would be considered “predatory” pursuant to written guidance published or issued by any applicable federal, state or local regulatory authority acting in its official capacity and having jurisdiction over such matters or (d) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, any Prepayment Charge in any instance when a Mortgage Loan is in foreclosure.

Section 3.22.

Compliance with Safeguarding Customer Information Requirements.

The Servicer has implemented and will maintain security measures designed to meet the objectives of the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information published in final form on February 1, 2001, 66 Fed.

The Servicer shall monitor the status of each Superior Lien in accordance with the Servicing Standard.  If the Servicer is notified that any superior lienholder has accelerated or intends to accelerate the obligations secured by the Superior Lien, or has declared or intends to declare a default under the mortgage or the promissory note secured thereby, or has filed or intends to file an election to have the Mortgaged Property sold or foreclosed, the Servicer shall take, on behalf of the Trust, whatever actions are necessary to protect the interests of the Trust Fund in accordance with the Servicing Standard.  If such notification is received by the Trustee, the Trustee shall forward such notification to the Servicer in a timely manner.  The Servicer shall not be required to make a Servicing Advance except to the extent that it determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such advance would be recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds on the related Second Lien Mortgage Loan and in no event in an amount that is greater than the then outstanding principal balance of the related Second Lien Mortgage Loan.  The Servicer shall thereafter take such action as is necessary to recover the amount so advanced.

Statements to Master Servicer.  

Not later than the tenth (10th) calendar day of each month (or if such tenth calendar day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and, if required, the NIMS Insurer (i) a monthly remittance advice in the format set forth in Exhibit D-1 hereto and a monthly defaulted loan report in the format set forth in Exhibit D-2 hereto (or in such other format mutually agreed to between the Servicer and the Master Servicer) relating to the period ending on the last day of the preceding calendar month and (ii) all such information required pursuant to clause (i) above on a magnetic tape or other similar media reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer.  The format of this monthly reporting may be amended from time to time to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law.

Such monthly remittance advice shall also be accompanied with a supplemental report provided to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the NIMS Insurer, if required, and the Seller which includes on an aggregate basis for the previous calendar month (i) the amount of claims filed, (ii) the amount of any claim payments made, (iii) the amount of claims denied or curtailed and (iv) policies cancelled with respect to those Mortgage Loans covered by any PMI Policy purchased by Seller on behalf of the Trust Fund.  The Master Servicer will convert such data into a format acceptable to the Trustee and provide monthly reports to the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any supplemental reports including the foregoing data with respect to a PMI Policy until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from Seller to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with the PMI Insurer’s requirements.

Such monthly remittance advice shall also be accompanied by a supplemental report provided to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, if required, and the Seller which includes on an aggregate basis for the previous calendar month (i) the amount of claims filed on any LPMI Policy, (ii) the amount of any claim payments made on any LPMI Policy, (iii) the amount of claims denied or curtailed on any LPMI Policy and (iv) policies cancelled with respect to those Mortgage Loans covered by any LPMI Policy purchased by the Seller on behalf of the Trust Fund.  

In addition, at the Master Servicer’s or Securities Administrator’s request, not more than 60 days after the end of each calendar year, commencing December 31, 2004, the Servicer shall provide (as such information becomes reasonably available to the Servicer) to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and, if required, the NIMS Insurer such information concerning the Mortgage Loans and annual remittances to the Master Servicer relating thereto as is necessary for the Securities Administrator to prepare the Trust Fund’s federal income tax return and for any investor in the Certificates to prepare any required tax return.  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 to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator and the N IMS Insurer pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.  The Servicer shall also provide to the Securities Administrator such information as may be requested by it and required for the completion of any tax reporting responsibility of the Securities Administrator within such reasonable time frame as shall enable the Securities Administrator to timely file each Schedule Q (or other applicable tax report or return) required to be filed by it.

Section 4.04.

Due Dates Other Than the First of the Month.  

Mortgage Loans having Due Dates other than the first day of a month shall be accounted for as described in this Section 4.04.  Any payment due on a day other than the first day of each month shall be considered due on the first day of the month following the month in which that payment is due as if such payment were due on the first day of said month.  For example, a payment due on August 15 shall be considered to be due on September 1 of said month.  Any payment collected on a Mortgage Loan after the Cut-off Date shall be deposited in the Custodial Account.  For Mortgage Loans with Due Dates on the first day of a month, deposits to the Custodial Account begin with the payment due on the first of the month following the Cut-off Date.

Section 4.05.

Credit Reporting.  

For each Mortgage Loan, in accordance with its current servicing practices, the Servicer will accurately and fully report its underlying borrower credit files to each of three major national credit reporting agencies on a monthly basis in a timely manner.  In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced for a Fannie Mae pool, the Servicer shall transmit full credit reporting data to each of such credit repositories in accordance with Fannie Mae Guide Announcement 95-19 (November 20, 1995), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit G, reporting each of the following statuses, each month with respect to a Mortgage Loan in a Fannie Mae pool: New origination, current, delinquent (30-60-90-days, etc), foreclosed or charged off.

ARTICLE V.

GENERAL SERVICING PROCEDURES

Section 5.01.

Transfers of Mortgaged Property.  

The Servicer shall use its best efforts to enforce any “due-on-sale” provision contained in any Mortgage or Mortgage Note and to deny assumption by the person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be sold whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains liable on the Mortgage and the Mortgage Note.  When the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, 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, that the Servicer shall 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 LPMI Policy, if any.

If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, the Servicer shall enter into (i) an assumption and modification agreement with the person to whom such property has been conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and the original Mortgagor remains liable thereon or (ii) in the event the Servicer is unable under applicable law to require that the original Mortgagor remain liable under the Mortgage Note and the Servicer has the prior consent of the primary mortgage guaranty insurer, a substitution of liability agreement with the seller of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and the seller of the Mortgaged Property is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note.  In connection with any such assumption, none of the Mortgage Interest Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note, the term of the Mortgage Loan or the outstanding principal amount of the Mortgage Loan shall be changed.

To the extent that any Mortgage Loan is assumable, the Servicer shall inquire diligently into the creditworthiness of the proposed transferee, and shall use the underwriting criteria for approving the credit of the proposed transferee which are used by the Servicer, its affiliates or Fannie Mae with respect to underwriting mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loans.  If the credit of the proposed transferee does not meet such underwriting criteria, the Servicer diligently shall, to the extent permitted by the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and by applicable law, accelerate the maturity of the Mortgage Loan.

Section 5.02.

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 shall notify the Master Servicer in the Monthly Remittance Advice as provided in Section 4.02, and may request the release of any Mortgage Loan Documents from the Seller in accordance with this Section 5.02 hereof.

If the Servicer satisfies or releases a Mortgage without first having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or should the Servicer otherwise prejudice any rights the Seller, the Trustee or the Trust Fund may have under the mortgage instruments, the Servicer shall deposit into the Custodial Account the entire outstanding principal balance, plus all accrued interest on such Mortgage Loan, on the day preceding the Remittance Date in the month following the date of such release.  The Servicer shall maintain the Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy as provided for in Section 3.13 insuring the Servicer against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

Section 5.03.

Servicing Compensation.  

As consideration for servicing the Mortgage Loans subject to this Agreement, the Servicer shall retain the relevant Servicing Fee for each Mortgage Loan remaining subject to this Agreement during any month or part thereof.  Such Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly.  Additional servicing compensation in the form of Ancillary Income shall be retained by the Servicer and is not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account.  The obligation of the Seller to pay the Servicing Fee is limited to, and the Servicing Fee is payable solely from, the interest portion (including recoveries with respect to interest from Liquidation Proceeds) of such Monthly Payment collected by the Servicer.

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 thereof except as specifically provided for herein.

Section 5.04.

Annual Audit Report.

As soon as practicable in each year beginning with 2005, but in no event later than March 15th of each year, the Servicer shall, at its own expense, cause a firm of independent public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer), which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, to furnish to the Seller, the Trustee, the Depositor, the NIMS Insurer, if required, and the Master Servicer (i) year-end audited (if available) financial statements of the Servicer and (ii) a statement to the effect that such firm has examined certain documents and records for the preceding fiscal year (or during the period from the date of commencement of such Servicer’s duties hereunder until the end of such preceding fiscal year in the case of the first such certificate) and that, on the basis of such examination conducted substantially in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (or such other attestation program as may be required by applicable law or regulation), such firm is of the opinion that the Servicer’s overall servicing operations have been conducted in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (or such other attestation program as may be required by applicable law or regulation) except for such exceptions that, in the opinion of such firm, the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers requires it to report, in which case such exceptions shall be set forth in such statement.

Section 5.05.

Annual Officer’s Certificate.

(a)

On or before March 15th of each year, beginning with March 15, 2005, the Servicer, at its own expense, will deliver to the Seller, the Trustee, the Depositor and the Master Servicer (i) a Servicing Officer’s certificate stating, as to each signer thereof, that (1) a review of the activities of the Servicer during such preceding fiscal year and of performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers’ supervision, and (2) to the best of such officers’ knowledge, based on such review, the Servicer has fulfilled all its obligations under this Agreement for such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of all such obligations, specifying each such default known to such officers and the nature and status thereof including the steps being taken by the Servicer to remedy such default or (ii) such other certificates as may be required from an asset or mortgage servicer under applicable law or regulation.

(b)

For so long as a certificate under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) is required to be given on behalf of the Trust Fund, no later than March 15th of each year, beginning with March 15, 2005 (or if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), or at any other time that the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor are required to provide a certificate pursuant to applicable law, an officer of the Servicer shall execute and deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator and the Depositor for the benefit of the Trust Fund and the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Depositor and their officers, directors and affiliates, in the form of Exhibit E hereto.

Section 5.06.

Inspection.  

The Servicer shall provide the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, upon five (5) Business Days’ advance notice, during normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Servicer in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Servicer responsible for such obligations.  Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer its most recent publicly available financial statements and such other information relating to its capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

Purchase of Distressed Mortgage Loans.

The NIMS Insurer may, at its option, purchase a Distressed Mortgage Loan; provided, however, prior to any such purchase, the Servicer shall be required to continue to make Monthly Advances with respect to such Distressed Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 4.03.  Any such purchase shall be accomplished by remittance to the Master Servicer of the Purchase Price for the Distressed Mortgage Loan for deposit into the Collection Account established by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Trust Agreement.  The Trustee and the Servicer shall immediately effectuate the conveyance of the purchased Distressed Mortgage Loan to the NIMS Insurer exercising the purchase option, including prompt delivery of the Servicing File and all related documentation to the applicable NIMS Insurer.

Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor or the Trustee for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in strict compliance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and sub mitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability, provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto.  In such event, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Fund for the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.

Section 7.03.

Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by the Servicer.

This Agreement has been entered into with the Servicer in reliance upon the independent status of the Servicer, and the representations as to the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plant, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing, and the continuance thereof.  Therefore, except as expressly provided in this Section 7.03 and Sections 3.21 and 7.01, the Servicer shall neither assign its rights under this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer which consent, in the case of an assignment of rights or delegation of duties, shall be granted or withheld in the discretion of t he Seller, the Master Servicer, Trustee and the NIMS Insurer and which consent, in the case of a sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the property or assets of the Servicer, shall not be unreasonably withheld by any of them; provided, that in each case, there must be delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing or sale or disposition of assets will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIMS Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  

The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Servicer.  Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to each of them.  No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Sections 8.01 and 9.01.

Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 7.03, in the event that the Servicer either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, except to the extent permitted by and in accordance with this Section 7.03 and Sections 3.21 and 7.01, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, then such parties shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice given as set forth in Section 8.01, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Servicer or any third party.

ARTICLE VIII.

Section 8.01.

Termination for Cause.  

(a)

Any of the following occurrences shall constitute an event of default (each, an “Event of Default”) on the part of the Servicer:

(i)

any failure by the Servicer to remit to the Master Servicer any payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of two (2) Business Days after the date upon which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer; or

(ii)

failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days (or seven (7) days with respect to Servicer’s covenants and agreements set forth in Sections 5.04 and 5.05) after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer; or

(iii)

failure by the Servicer to maintain its license to do business or service residential mortgage loans in any jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Properties are located, where the failure to maintain such license will have a material adverse effect on the Servicer’s ability to service the Mortgage Loans; or

(iv)

a decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, including bankruptcy, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered against the Servicer and such decree or order shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of 60 days; or

(v)

the Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)

the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or cease its normal business operations for three Business Days; or

(x)

the net worth of the Servicer shall be less than $25,000,000.

In each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied, in addition to whatsoever rights the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer may have at law or equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, by notice in writing to the Servicer, may terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the servicing contract established hereby and the proceeds thereof.

Upon receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in a successor servicer appointed by the Trustee or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, with the consent of the other party and the NIMS Insurer.  Upon written request from the Master Servicer, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity designated by the Master Servicer any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, at the Servicer& #146;s sole expense.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

By a written notice, the Trustee or the Master Servicer, with the consent of the other parties and the NIMS Insurer, may waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences.  Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement.  No such waiver shall extend to any or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

(a)

Subject to the requirements set forth in this Section 8.04, the Seller may terminate this Agreement with the prior consent of the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer, with respect to the servicing of those Mortgage Loans that are determined to be Distressed Mortgage Loans and in such event servicing of such Mortgage Loans shall be transferred to the Special Servicer.  The appointment of a Special Servicer by the Seller and the execution of a special servicing agreement between the Seller and the Special Servicer shall be subject to the consent of the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and the receipt of confirmation from the Rating Agencies that the transfer of servicing to the Special Servicer shall not result in a reduction of any rating previously given by such Rating Agency to any Certificate or the NIMS Securities.  Any month ly fee paid to the Special Servicer in connection with any Mortgage Loan serviced by such Special Servicer shall not exceed one-twelfth of the product of (a) 0.50% and (b) the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan.  All unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances owing to the Servicer relating to such Distressed Mortgage Loans shall be reimbursed and paid to the Servicer by the successor Special Servicer upon such transfer to the Special Servicer.

(c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.04, the NIMS Insurer may, at its option, withhold their consent to the transfer of a Distressed Mortgage Loan to a Special Servicer and elect to purchase such Distressed Mortgage Loan at a price equal to its Purchase Price.  Prior to such purchase, the Servicer shall be required to continue to make Monthly Advances with respect to such Distressed Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 4.03.  Any such purchase of a Distressed Mortgage Loan shall be accomplished by remittance to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account established pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Trust Agreement of the amount of the Purchase Price.  The Servicers on behalf of the Trustee shall take reasonable steps to effectuate the transfer of servicing of such Distressed Mortgage Loan to the NIMS Insurer to the extent necessary, including the prompt delivery of all Servicing Files and other related documentation to the NIMS Insurer or its designee.

(d)

No Termination Fee shall be payable to the Servicer upon a termination pursuant to this Section 8.04.

ARTICLE IX.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 9.01.

Successor to the Servicer.  

Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement (a) pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02, the Master Servicer shall (i) within 90 days of the Servicer’s notice of such termination, succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement; or (b) pursuant to a termination under Section 8.02(iii) or Section 8.03, the Seller shall appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement.  Any successor to the Servicer shall be subject to the approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.  Any approval of a successor servicer by the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and, to the extent required by the Trust Agreement, the Trustee, shall, if the successor servicer is not at that time a servicer of other Mortgage Loans for the Trust Fund, be conditioned upon the receipt by the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Seller and the Trustee of a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree, provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer under this Agreement.  In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned sections, 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 sections shall not become effective until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 9.01 and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Sections 6.01 and the remedies available to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller under Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 6.01, 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 shall be applicable to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.  Neither the Master Servicer, in its capacity as successor servicer, nor any other successor servicer shall be responsible for the lack of information and/or documents that it cannot otherwise obtain through reasonable efforts.

Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than 30 days of the appointment of a successor entity, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer of any Mortgage Notes and the related documents.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the successor 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Trustee, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 and provide for the same remedies set forth in Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 herein and (ii) an assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the Servicer under this Agreement, 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 termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sec tions 6.02, 7.03, 8.01, 8.02 or 8.04 shall not affect any claims that the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer arising out of the Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such termination or resignation.  In addition, in the event any successor servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 8.02(iii) of this Agreement, such successor servicer must satisfy the conditions relating to the transfer of servicing set forth in the Trust Agreement.

The Servicer shall deliver promptly to the successor servicer the funds in the Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Mortgage Loan documents 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.

Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, it shall notify the Trustee, the Seller and Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor of such appointment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.04.

Section 9.02.

Costs.

The Seller shall pay the legal fees and expenses of its attorneys.  Costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transfer of the servicing responsibilities, including fees for delivering Servicing Files, shall be paid by (i) the terminated or resigning servicer if such termination or resignation is a result of an occurrence of a termination event under Section 8.01, (ii) the related Seller if such termination is pursuant to Section 8.02(iii) and (iii) in all other cases by the Trust Fund.  Subject to Section 2.02, the Seller, on behalf of the Depositor, shall pay the costs associated with the preparation, delivery and recording of Assignments of Mortgages.

Section 9.03.

Protection of Confidential Information.  

The Servicer shall keep confidential and shall not divulge to any party, without the Seller’s prior written consent, any nonpublic information pertaining to the Mortgage Loans or any borrower thereunder, except to the extent that it is appropriate for the Servicer to do so in working with legal counsel, subservicers, special servicers, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies.

Subject

“Full-File” Reporting to Credit Repositories


Part IV, Section 107, of the servicing Guide currently requires servicers to report only 90-day delinquencies to the four major credit repositories.  To ensure that the repositories have up-to-date information for both servicing and origination activity, we have decided to begin requiring -- as of the month ending March 31, 1996 -- servicers to provide the credit repositories a “full-file” status report for the mortgages they service for us.

“Full-file” reporting requires that servicers submit a monthly report to each of the credit repositories to describe the exact status for each mortgage they service for us.  The status reported generally should be the one in effect as of the last business day of each month.  Servicers may, however, use a slightly later cut-off date -- for example, at the and of the first week of a month -- to assure that payment corrections, returned checks, and other adjustments related to the previous month’s activity can be appropriately reflected in their report for that month.  Statuses that must be reported for any given mortgage include the following: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, and charged-off.  (The credit repositories will provide the applicable codes for reporting these statuses to them.)  A listing of each of the major repositori es to which “full-file” status reports must be sent is attached.


Servicers are responsible for the complete and accurate reporting of mortgage status information to the repositories and for resolving any disputes that arise about the information they report.  Servicers must respond promptly to any inquiries from borrowers regarding specific mortgage status information about them that was reported to the credit repositories.


Servicers should contact their Customer Account Team in their lead Fannie Mae regional office if they have any questions about this expanded reporting requirement.

Section 3.01

Servicer to Service.

The Servicer, as an independent contractor, shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans from and after the Closing Date and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable, consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with Accepted Servicing Practices.

The Seller and the Servicer additionally agree as follows:

(a)

The Servicer shall (A) record or cause to be recorded the Mortgage or the Assignment of Mortgage, as applicable, with respect to all MERS Eligible Mortgage Loans, in the name of MERS, or shall ascertain that such have previously been so recorded; (B) prepare or cause to be prepared all Assignments of Mortgage with respect to all Non-MERS Eligible Mortgage Loans; (C) prepare for recording or cause to be recorded, subject to Section 2.02(b) hereof, all Assignments of Mortgage with respect to Non-MERS Mortgage Loans in the name of the Trust; (D) pay the recording costs pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof; and/or (E) track such Mortgages and Assignments of Mortgage to ensure they have been recorded.  The Servicer shall be entitled to be paid by the Seller, on behalf of the Depositor, its out-of-pocket costs for the preparation and recordation of the Mortgages and Assignments of Mortgage .  After the expenses of such recording costs pursuant to Section 2.02 hereof shall have been paid by the Servicer, the Servicer shall submit to the Seller a reasonably detailed invoice for reimbursement of recording costs it incurred hereunder.  The Seller, upon receipt of an invoice, shall reimburse the Servicer within five (5) Business Days;

(b)

If applicable, the Servicer shall, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Cranston-Gonzales National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, as the same may be amended from time to time, and the regulations provided in accordance with the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, provide notice to the Mortgagor of each Mortgage Loan of the transfer of the servicing thereto to the Servicer; and

(c)

The Servicer shall fully furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act of 1970, as amended (the “Fair Credit Reporting Act”) and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information (e.g., favorable and unfavorable) on its borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian, and Trans Union Credit Information Company (three of the credit repositories) on a monthly basis.

(d)

The Servicer shall be responsible for the preparation of and costs associated with notifications to Mortgagors of the assumption of servicing by the Servicer.

(e)

Consistent with the terms of this Agreement and except as provided in Section 3.15 hereof, the Servicer may waive any late payment charge, assumption fee or other fee (other than a Prepayment Charge) that may be collected in the ordinary course of servicing the Mortgage Loans.  The Servicer shall not make any future advances to any Mortgagor under any Mortgage Loan, and (unless the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable) the Servicer shall not permit any modification of any material term of any Mortgage Loan, including any modification that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate (except for modifications relating to Relief Act Reduction), defer or forgive the payment of principal or interest, reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except for actual payments of principal ) or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan.  In the event of any such modification which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments on any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment has been deferred, make a Monthly Advance in accordance with Section 4.03, in an amount equal to the difference between (a) such month’s principal and one month’s interest at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate (or, at the Seller’s option, at a rate equal to the related Mortgage Interest Rate minus the Option One Servicing Fee Rate) on the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (b) the amount paid by the Mortgagor.  The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for such advances to the same extent as for all other advances made pursuant to Section 4.03.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby aut horized and empowered, to execute and deliver on behalf of itself and the Trustee, 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 with respect to the Mortgaged Properties.  Upon the request of the Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer, within the later of fifteen days from the Closing Date or within fifteen days of such Servicer request, any powers of attorney (one for each county in which any of the Mortgaged Properties are located) and other documents, furnished to it by the Servicer and reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement.

The Servicer shall not without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceedings solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Servicer’s representative capacity or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and which actually does cause, the Trustee to be registered to do business in any state.  The Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for any and all costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the negligent or willful misuse of such powers of attorney by the Servicer.

Promptly after the execution of any assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall forward to the Master Servicer copies of any documents evidencing such assumption, modification, consolidation or extension.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would cause the REMIC or trust fund created under the Trust Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the Code.

Section 3.10

Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges.

With respect to each escrowed Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of 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 or applicable regulations.  The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall eff ect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of the same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.  With respect to non-escrowed Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall employ Accepted Servicing Practices to determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor at the time they are first to become due and to ensure that the Mortgaged Property is not subjected to a tax lien as a result of nonpayment and that such Mortgaged Property is not left uninsured.  The Servicer shall advance its funds to effect payments on any such delinquent payments to avoid lapse of insurance coverage on the Mortgage Property or to avoid the sale or other loss of the Mortgaged Property to a tax lien.  Such advances made by the Servicer shall be considered Servicing Advances subject to reimbursement pursuant to Section 3.04 herein.

Section 3.11

The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account to a different Eligible Institution from time to time; provided that in the event the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account is held in a depository institution or trust company that ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer shall transfer such Custodial Account or Escrow Account, as the case may be, to an Eligible Institution.  The Servicer shall give notice to the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer of the location of each Custodial Account maintained by it with respect to the Mortgage Loans when established and prior to any change thereof.

The Servicer shall bear any expenses, losses or damages sustained by the Trustee or the Master Servicer if the Custodial Account and/or the Escrow Account are not demand deposit accounts.

Amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account and the Escrow Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Eligible Investments; provided that in the event that amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account exceed the amount fully insured by the FDIC (the “Insured Amount”), the Servicer shall be obligated to invest the excess amount over the Insured Amount in Eligible Investments on the same Business Day as such excess amount becomes present in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account.  Any such Eligible Investment shall mature no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the related Remittance Date.  Any such Eligible Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Trustee.  All income on or gain realized from any such Eligible Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer.  Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized.

Section 3.12

Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

In the event that title to any 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 Trustee (or MERS, as applicable), or in the event the Trustee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer (with a copy delivered to the Trustee) from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located.  The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nomi nee for the Trustee.

The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.  The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall 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.  The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trust Fund.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.12, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Master Servicer or NIMS Insurer otherwise requests, an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property to be conducted by a qualified inspector shall be arranged by the Servicer.  Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and NIMS Insurer with a written report of such environmental inspection.  In the event that the environmental inspection report indicates that the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in l ieu of foreclosure.  In the event that the environmental inspection report is inconclusive as to the whether or not the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not, without the prior approval of both the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  In such instance, the Master Servicer and/or the NIMS Insurer shall be deemed to have approved such foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure unless either notifies the Servicer in writing, within three (3) days after its receipt of written notice of the proposed foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure from the Servicer, that it disapproves of the related foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  The Servicer shall be reimbursed for all Servicing Advances made pursuant to this paragraph with respect to the related Mortgaged Property from the Custodial Account.

In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service (and provided a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer) to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC.  If the Servicer has received such an extension (and provide a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer), then the Servicer shall continue to atte mpt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”).  If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell REO Property within the period ending 3 months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value, as acceptable to the NIMS Insurer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be. &nb sp;The Master Servicer shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such grant of extension.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would:  (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan at the time it becomes an REO Property.

Each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer reasonably determines to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders and provided the sales price and the related terms and conditions are results of arm’s-length negotiation.  The proceeds of sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account.  After the expenses of such disposition shall have been paid, the Servicer shall pursuant to Section 3.04 apply any remaining proceeds to payment of any unreimbursed Option One Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances or Monthly Advances or unpaid Seller Remittance Amount incurred with respect to such REO Property.

The Servicer shall withdraw from the Custodial Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to the Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae Guides.

Section 3.13

Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 4.02, the Servicer shall furnish by electronic transmission to the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager and the NIMS Insurer on or before the Remittance Date each month a statement with respect to any REO Property covering the operation of such REO Property for the previous month and the Servicer’s efforts in connection with the sale of such REO Property and any rental of such REO Property incidental to the sale thereof for the previous month.  That statement shall be accompanied by such other information as either the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager or the NIMS Insurer shall reasonably request.

Section 3.14

MERS.

(a)

The Servicer shall take such actions as are necessary to cause the Trustee to be clearly identified as the owner of each MERS Mortgage Loan on the records of MERS for purposes of the system of recording transfers of beneficial ownership of mortgages maintained by MERS.

(b)

The Servicer shall maintain in good standing its membership in MERS.  In addition, the Servicer shall comply with all rules, policies and procedures of MERS, including the Rules of Membership, as amended, and the MERS Procedures Manual, as amended.

(c)

With respect to all MERS Mortgage Loans serviced hereunder, the Servicer shall promptly notify MERS as to any transfer of beneficial ownership or release of any security interest in such Mortgage Loans.

(d)

With respect to all MERS Mortgage Loans serviced hereunder, the Servicer shall notify MERS as to any transfer of servicing pursuant to Section 3.15 or Section 9.01 within 10 Business Days of such transfer of servicing.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee and any successor servicer to the extent necessary to ensure that such transfer of servicing is appropriately reflected on the MERS system.

Section 3.15

Waiver of Prepayment Charges.

Except as provided below, the Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge with respect to any Mortgage Loan.  If the Servicer or its designee fails to collect a Prepayment Charge at the time of the related prepayment of any Mortgage Loan subject to such Prepayment Charge or waives a Prepayment Charge other than a waiver pursuant to clause (i), (ii) or (iii) below of this Section 3.15, the Servicer shall pay to the Trust Fund at such time (by deposit to the Custodial Account) an amount equal to the amount of the Prepayment Charge not collected, provided, however, the Servicer shall not have any obligation to pay the amount of any uncollected Prepayment Charge under this Section 3.15 if the failure to collect such amount is the result of inaccurate or incomplete information in the Prepayment Charge Schedule provided by LBH and which is inc luded as part of the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A.  The Prepayment Charges listed on the Prepayment Charge Schedule attached hereto as Exhibit A are a complete, true and accurate and may be relied on by the Servicer in its calculation of Prepayment Charges.  If the Prepayment Charge data set forth on Exhibit A is incorrect, then the Servicer shall have no liability for any loss resulting from calculation of Prepayment Charges using the data provided.  Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or its designee may waive (and shall waive, in the case of (iii) below) a Prepayment Charge without paying to the Trust Fund the amount of such Prepayment Charge only if the related prepayment is not the result of a refinancing by the Servicer or its designee and such waiver (i) relates to a defaulted Mortgage Loan or a reasonably foreseeable default, such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans to the Mortgage Loans, and such waiver, in the reasonable jud gment of the Servicer, would maximize recovery of total proceeds from the Mortgage Loan, taking into account the amount of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) relates to a prepayment charge the collection of which, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would be a violation of applicable laws or (iii) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, any Prepayment Charge in any instance when a Mortgage Loan is in foreclosure.

Section 3.16

Servicing and Administration of PMI Policies.

(a)

The Servicer shall take all such actions on behalf of the Trustee as are necessary to service, maintain and administer PMI Policies and to perform and enforce the rights under such Policies for its own account.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the Servicer shall have full authority on behalf of the Trust to do anything it reasonably deems appropriate or desirable in connection with the servicing, maintenance and administration of the PMI Policies.  The Servicer shall not take, or permit any subservicer to modify or assume a Mortgage Loan covered by a PMI Policy or take any other action with respect to such Mortgage Loan which would result in non-coverage under any PMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer or subservicer, would have been covered thereunder.  If a PMI Insurer fails to pay a claim under a PMI Policy as a result of breach by t he Servicer or a sub-servicer of its obligations hereunder or under a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Custodial Account on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance Date an amount equal to such unpaid claim from its own funds without any right to reimbursement from the Trust Fund.  To the extent coverage is available, the Servicer shall keep or cause to be kept in full force and effect the Insurance Policies for as long as any Certificates are outstanding.  The Servicer shall cooperate with each PMI Insurer and shall use its best efforts to furnish all reasonable aid, evidence and information in the possession of the Servicer to which the Servicer has access with respect to any Mortgage Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any reports to a PMI Insurer until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from LBH to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with such PMI Insurer’s requirements.

(b)

The Servicer shall deposit into the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(xiii) hereof all Insurance Proceeds received from the PMI Insurer under the terms of a PMI Policy.  

(c)

Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) and (b) above, the Servicer shall not take any action in regard to any PMI Policy inconsistent with the interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders or with the rights and interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders under this Agreement.  

(d)

The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents (within fifteen (15) days upon request from the Servicer) in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer any PMI Policy; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such powers of attorney.

Section 3.17

Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.  

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the current principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis, in each case in an amount not less than the amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any co-insurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy.

Any payments by the Servicer for hazard insurance, other than as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section 3.17, shall be deemed Servicing Advances, reimbursable in accordance with Section 3.04(ix), to the extent not collected from the related Mortgagor.  The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard policies.  Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.04, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan.  Any cost incurred by the Servicer in maintaining any such i nsurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.  It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.  If the Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been made available, the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof.  Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property u nder the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program).

In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of B:III or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide (or such other rating that is comparable to such rating) insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the first two sentences of this Section 3.17, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first two sentences of this Section 3.17, and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Custodial Account from its own funds without right of reimbursement the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause.  In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.

Section 3.18

Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

(a)

The Servicer shall, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans (including selling any such Mortgage Loans other than converting the ownership of the related properties) as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments.  The Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.04.  The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an uninsured cause, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such Mortgaged Property unless in its determination such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself for such expenses.

(b)

If the Servicer determines that it is in the best economic interest of the Trust Fund and the Certificateholders to sell a Distressed Mortgage Loan rather than foreclosing, the Servicer may effect such a sale.  The net proceeds of such sale shall be Liquidation Proceeds.

(c)

Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds or REO Disposition Proceeds, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the following order of priority:  first, to unpaid General Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Servicer or any sub-servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances pursuant to Section 3.04; third, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery Determination, or to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to be distributed if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan.  The portion of the recovery so a llocated to any unpaid Option One Servicing Fee shall be reimbursed to the Servicer or any Sub-Servicer pursuant to Section 3.04.

Section 3.19

Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreement.  

The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by absolute conveyance or contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to take such action if in its sole business judgment the Servicer believes it is not in the best interests of the Trust Fund and shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so. If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the proviso to the precedi ng sentence apply, the Servicer will enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Servicer is also authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note, provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such person satisfies the underwriting criteria of the Servicer and has a credit risk rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor.  In connection with any assumption or substitution, the Servicer shall apply its own underwriting standards, provided such standards follow practices and procedures as shall be normal and usual in its genera l mortgage servicing activities and as it applies to other mortgage loans owned solely by it.  The Servicer shall not take or enter into any assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the extent practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance policy.  Any fee collected by the Servicer in respect of an assumption, modification or substitution of liability agreement shall be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.  In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related Mortgage Interest Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof.  The Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer that any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has been contemplated by forwarding to each of them a copy of such agreement (identifying the Mortgage File to which it relates).  The Servicer shall forward an original copy of such document to the related Custodian to be held by such Custodian with the other documents related to such Mortgage Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatever.  For purposes of this Section 3.19, the term “assumption” is deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.  

Section 3.20

Safeguarding Customer Information.  

The Servicer has implemented and will maintain security measures designed to meet the objectives of the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information published in final form on February 1, 2001, 66 Fed. Reg. 8616 and the rules promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time (the “Guidelines”).  

The Servicer shall promptly provide the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer information reasonably available to it regarding such security measures upon the reasonable request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer which information shall include, but not be limited to, any Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70 report covering the Servicer’s operations, and any other audit reports, summaries of test results or equivalent measures taken by the Servicer with respect to its security measures to the extent reasonably necessary in order for the Seller to satisfy its obligations under the Guidelines.

Not later than the 5th calendar day of each month (or if such calendar day is not a Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day), the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer (a) a monthly remittance advice in the format set forth in Exhibit D-1 hereto and a monthly defaulted loan report in the format set forth in Exhibit D-2 hereto (or upon such other format mutually agreed to between the Servicer and the Master Servicer) and (b) all such information required pursuant to clause (a) above on a magnetic tape, electronic mail, or other similar media reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.

Such monthly remittance advice shall also be accompanied with a supplemental report provided to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller which includes on an aggregate basis for the previous Due Period (i) the amount of claims filed, (ii) the amount of any claim payments made, (iii) the amount of claims denied or curtailed and (iv) policies cancelled with respect to those Mortgage Loans covered by any PMI Policy purchased by a Seller on behalf of the Trust Fund; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any supplemental reports including the foregoing data with respect to a PMI Policy until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from the Seller to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with the PMI Insurer’s requirements.

In addition, not more than 60 days after the end of each calendar year, commencing December 31, 2004, the Servicer shall provide (as such information becomes reasonably available to the Servicer) to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer such information concerning the Mortgage Loans and annual remittances to the Master Servicer therefrom as is necessary for the Securities Administrator to prepare the Trust Fund’s federal income tax return.  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 to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.  The Servicer shall also provide such information reasonably available to it as may be requested by the Securities Administrator and requir ed for the completion of any tax reporting responsibility of the Securities Administrator within such reasonable time frame as shall enable the Securities Administrator to timely file each Schedule Q (or other applicable tax report or return) required to be filed by it.

Beginning with calendar year 2004, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer with such information concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary for the Master Servicer to prepare the Trust Fund’s federal income tax return and for any investor in the Certificates to prepare any required tax return.

Section 4.03

Monthly Advances by Servicer.

On the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds or from amounts held for future distribution, or both, an amount equal to the aggregate of all Monthly Advances relating to Monthly Payments 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.  Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be replaced 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 remittances to the Master Servicer required to be made on such Remittance Date.  The Servicer shall keep appropriate records of such amounts and will provide such records to the Master Servicer and t he NIMS Insurer upon request.  No provision in this Agreement shall be construed as limiting the Servicer’s right to (i) pass through late collections on the related Mortgage Loans in lieu of making Monthly Advances (ii) reimburse itself for such Monthly Advances from late collections on the related Mortgage Loans or (iii) utilize an Advancing Person (as defined below).

The Servicer shall make Monthly Advances through the Distribution Date immediately preceding the distribution of all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds) with respect to the related Mortgage Loans; provided, however, the Servicer shall cease to make Monthly Advances when it deems such advances to be Nonrecoverable Advances.  

The Servicer may enter into a facility with any person which provides that such person (an “Advancing Person”) may fund Monthly Advances required under this Section 4.03 and/or Servicing Advances, although no such facility shall reduce or otherwise affect the Servicer’s obligation to fund such Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances.  Any Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances made by an Advancing Person shall be reimbursed to the Advancing Person by the Servicer in the same manner as reimbursements would be made to the Servicer under Section 3.04 if such Monthly Advances or Servicing Advance were funded by the Servicer; provided that neither the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or the Trust Fund shall have any liability or obligation to make any payment to any Advancing Person, nor shall any of them have any liability for any Monthly A dvances and/or Servicing Advances reimbursed to the Servicer rather than to an Advancing Person.

Section 4.04

Compensating Interest.

The Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Custodial Account, and retain therein with respect to each Principal Prepayment, the Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount, if any, for the related Due Period.  Such deposit shall be made from the Servicer’s own funds, without reimbursement therefor, up to an aggregate amount for any month equal to the lesser of (i) the aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount for such month or (ii) the aggregate General Servicing Fees for such month.  The Servicer shall not be obligated to pay any Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount with respect to any Relief Act Reduction or bankruptcy.

Section 4.05

Servicing Compensation; Seller Remittance Amount.

As consideration for servicing the Mortgage Loans subject to this Agreement, the Servicer shall retain (a) the Option One Servicing Fee for each Mortgage Loan remaining subject to this Agreement during any month and (b) Ancillary Income.  The Option One Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly.

The obligation of the Trust Fund to pay the Option One Servicing Fee is limited as provided in Section 3.04(iii).  The aggregate Option One Servicing Fees for any month with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be reduced by the aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount for such month.  The Servicer shall be obligated to pay the aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount for any month to the extent not covered by the aggregate Option One Servicing Fees for such month up to a maximum of the aggregate General Servicing Fees for such month.  The Servicer shall be entitled to recover any unpaid Option One Servicing Fee and the Seller shall be entitled to recover the Seller Remittance Amount, to the extent not remitted, out of Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, REO Disposition Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds to the extent permitted in Section 3.04 and out o f amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.12.

Additional servicing compensation in the form of Ancillary Income shall be retained by the Servicer only to the extent such fees or charges are received by the Servicer.  The Servicer shall also be entitled pursuant to Section 3.04 and Section 3.06 to withdraw from the Custodial Account and Escrow Account, respectively, as additional servicing compensation, interest or other income earned on deposits therein, subject to Section 3.11.

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 thereof except as specifically provided for herein.

THE SERVICER

Section 7.01

Merger or Consolidation of the Servicer.

The Servicer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation, and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this Agreement.

Any Person into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Servicer, shall, with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, be the successor of the Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person shall be an institution (i) having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000, and (ii) which is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and is a Freddie Mac-approved or Fannie Mae-approved servicer in good standing.

Section 7.02

Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others.

Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor or the Trustee hereunder for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in strict compliance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly e xecuted and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer, undertake any such action which it deems necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto.  In such event, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Fund for the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.

Section 7.03

Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by the Servicer.

The Seller has entered into this Agreement with the Servicer in reliance upon the independent status of the Servicer, and the representations as to the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plant, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing, and the continuance thereof.  Therefore, the Servicer shall neither assign its rights under this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that in each case, there must be delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing or sale or disposition of assets will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or of the NIM Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer, without the consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, may retain third-party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and administration, collection services and similar functions; provided, however, that the retention of such contractors by Servicer shall not limit the obligation of the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Servicer.  Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee.  No such resignation shall become effective until a successor acceptable to the NIMS Insurer shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 9.01.

Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 7.03, in the event that the Servicer either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, then such parties shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice given as set forth in Section 8.01, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Servicer or any third party.

Section 7.04

(b)

The Servicer, with the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, may terminate any subservicing agreement to which it is a party in accordance with the terms and conditions of such subservicing agreement and either itself directly service the related Mortgage Loans or enter into a subservicing agreement with a successor subservicer that qualifies under Section 7.04(a).

(c)

Notwithstanding any subservicing agreement or the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a subservicer or reference to actions taken through a subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such subservicing agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.  The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a subservicer for indemnification of the Servi cer by such subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

Section 7.05

Inspection.

(v)

In each and every such case, so long as an event of default shall not have been remedied within the applicable cure period, in addition to whatever rights the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer may have at law or equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, by notice in writing to the Servicer, and with the consent of the other parties, may terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the servicing contract established hereby and the proceeds thereof.

Upon receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in a successor servicer appointed by the Master Servicer with the consent of the NIMS Insurer.  Upon written request from the Master Servicer, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, at the Servicer’s sole expense.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Mast er Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

By a written notice, the Master Servicer, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, or the NIMS Insurer may waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences.  Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this 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.

Upon a termination of the Servicer for cause pursuant to Section 8.01, all unreimbursed Option One Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances still owing the Servicer shall be paid by the Trust Fund as such amounts are received from the related Mortgage Loans.  In connection with any termination without cause pursuant to the second sentence of this Section 8.02(a), the Seller or successor servicer will be responsible for reimbursing the Servicer for all unreimbursed out-of-pocket Servicing Advances, Monthly Advances and Option One Servicing Fees and other reasonable and necessary out-of-pocket costs associated with any transfer of servicing at the time of such transfer of servicing if, and only if, funds in the Collection Account are not sufficient to reimburse the Servicer for all such unreimbursed fees and advances.  Any invoices received by the Servicer afte r termination will be forwarded to the Seller, which such Seller or successor servicer shall pay within five (5) Business Days upon receipt from the Servicer.

(c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.03, the NIMS Insurer may, at its option, withhold their consent to the transfer of a Distressed Mortgage Loan to a Special Servicer and elect to purchase such Distressed Mortgage Loan at a price equal to its Purchase Price.  Prior to such purchase, the Servicer shall be required to continue to make Monthly Advances with respect to such Distressed Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 4.03; provided, however, the Servicer’s obligation to make such Monthly Advances shall cease when it deems such Monthly Advances to be nonrecoverable.  Any such purchase of a Distressed Mortgage Loan shall be accomplished by remittance to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account established pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Trust Agreement of the amount of the Purchase Price.  The Servicers on behalf of the T rustee shall immediately effectuate the conveyance of such Distressed Mortgage Loan to the NIMS Insurer to the extent necessary, including the prompt delivery of all Servicing Files and other related documentation to the NIMS Insurer.

Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement (a) pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02(a)(ii), the Master Servicer shall (i) within 90 days of the Servicer’s receipt of notice of such termination, succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement (except that the Master Servicer shall immediately assume all of the obligations of the Servicer to make Monthly Advances), or (ii) appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement; or (b) as a res ult of termination of the Servicer without cause by the Seller pursuant to Section 8.02 hereof, the Seller shall appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement.  Any successor to the Servicer shall be subject to the approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and, to the extent required by the Trust Agreement, shall be a member in good standing of the MERS system (if any of the Mortgage Loans are MERS Eligible Mortgage Loans, unless such Mortgage Loans are withdrawn from MERS and Assignments of Mortgage are recorded in favor of the Trustee at the expense of the successor servicer).  The final approval of a successor servicer shall be conditioned upon the receipt by the Trustee, the Mast er Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller of a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities.  In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree, provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of the General Servicing Fee permitted under this Agreement.  In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned sections, 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 pruden ce 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 sections shall not become effective until a successor servicer shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 9.01, or until the Master Servicer succeeds to and assumes all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations pursuant to this Section 9.01, and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 6.01 and the remedies available to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller under Section 6.02 and 6.03, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 6.03 shall be applicable not only to such successor servicer but also to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as successor servicer, shall not be responsible for the lack of information and/or documents that it cannot obtain through reasonable efforts.

Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than 30 days after the appointment of a successor entity and after due notification to the Servicer, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer of the Mortgage Notes and related documents, and the Assignments of Mortgage.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Seller, as applicable, and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the successor servicer, including with out limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

Any successor servicer appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 (including a representation that the successor servicer is a member of MERS, unless none of the Mortgage Loans are MERS Mortgage Loans or MERS Eligible Mortgage Loans or any such Mortgage Loans have been withdrawn from MERS and Assignments of Mortgage are recorded in favor of the Trustee) and provide for the same remedies set forth in Section 6.02 and Section 6.03 herein (ii) an assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the Servicer under this Agreement, whereupon such successor servicer 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 termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02 shall not affect any claims that the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer arising out of the Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such termination or resignation.  In addition, in the event any successor servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 8.03 of this Agreement, such successor servicer must satisfy the conditions relating to the transfer of servicing set forth in the Trust Agreement.

The Servicer shall deliver promptly to the successor servicer the funds in the Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Mortgage Loan documents 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.

Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, the Servicer shall notify the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Seller and the Depositor of such appointment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.03.

Section 9.02

Costs.

The Seller shall pay any legal fees and expenses of its attorneys.  Costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transfer of the servicing responsibilities pursuant to Section 9.01 or pursuant to any other provision of this Agreement, including fees for delivering Servicing Files, shall be paid by the Seller within five (5) Business Days upon receipt of an invoice from the Servicer.  Subject to Sections 2.02 and 3.01(a), the Seller shall pay the costs associated with the preparation, delivery and recording of Assignments of Mortgages if performed by the Servicer.

Section 9.04

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 unenfor ceable 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 as close as possible to the economic effect of this Agreement without regard to such invalidity.

Section 9.05

No Personal Solicitation.

From and after the related Closing Date, the Servicer 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 or independent mortgage brokerage companies on the Servicer’s behalf, to personally, by telephone or mail, solicit the mortgagor under any Mortgage Loan for the purpose of refinancing such Mortgage Loan; provided, that the Servicer may not solicit any mortgagor for whom the Servicer has received a request for verification of mortgage status, a request for demand for payoff, a mortgagor initiated written or verbal communication indicating a desire to prepay the related Mortgage Loan, or the mortgagor initiates a title search, and shall refer such mortgagor to the Seller or its agent as provided by the Seller to the Servicer; provided, however, if upon such referra l by the Servicer of such mortgagor to the Seller or its agent, the mortgagor decides to refinance such Mortgage Loan with the Servicer, the Seller shall not hinder the mortgagor’s right to choose its refinancing agent, and may solicit such mortgagor for refinancing; provided further, it is understood and agreed that promotions undertaken by the Servicer or any of its affiliates which (i) concern optional insurance products or other additional projects or (ii) are directed to the general public at large, including without limitation, mass mailings based on commercially acquired mailing lists, newspaper, radio, telephone and television advertisements shall not constitute solicitation under this Section 9.05 nor is the Servicer prohibited from responding to unsolicited requests or inquiries made by a mortgagor or an agent of a mortgagor.

Section 9.06

Counterparts.

This Agreement may be executed simultaneously in any number of counterparts.  Each counterpart shall be deemed to be an original, and all such counterparts shall constitute one and the same instrument.

Section 9.07

This Agreement shall be deemed in effect when a fully executed counterpart thereof is received by the Seller in the State of New York and shall be deemed to have been made in the State of New York.  THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.


Section 9.08

Further Agreements.

The Seller and the Servicer each agree to execute and deliver to the other such reasonable and appropriate additional documents, instruments or agreements as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

Section 9.09

Intention of the Parties.

It is the intention of the parties that the Seller is conveying, and the Servicer is receiving, only a contract for servicing the Mortgage Loans.  Accordingly, the parties hereby acknowledge that the Trust Fund remains the sole and absolute owner of the Mortgage Loans and all rights (other than the servicing rights) related thereto.

Section 9.10

Successors and Assigns; Assignment of Subservicing Agreement.

This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer and their respective successors and assigns.  This Agreement shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Servicer to a third party except in accordance with Section 7.03 and shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Seller without the consent of the NIMS Insurer except as and to the extent provided in Section 9.11.

Section 9.11

Assignment by Seller.

The Seller shall have the right, upon notice to but without the consent of the Servicer, to assign, in whole or in part (but exclusive of such Seller’s rights and obligations as owner of the servicing rights relating to the Mortgage Loans and its rights and obligations under Section 8.03), its interest under this Agreement to the Depositor, which in turn shall assign such rights to the Trustee, and the Trustee then shall succeed to all rights of the Seller under this Agreement.  All references to the Seller in this Agreement shall be deemed to include its assignee or designee and any subsequent assignee or designee, specifically including the Trustee.

Section 9.12

Amendment.

This Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Servicer and the Seller, by written agreement signed by the Master Servicer, the Seller and the Servicer; provided that the party requesting such amendment shall, at its own expense, provide the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer and the Seller with an Opinion of Counsel that such amendment is permitted under the terms of this Agreement, the Servicer has complied with all applicable requirements of this Agreement, and such amendment will not materially adversely affect the interest of the Certificateholders in the Mortgage Loans or the NIM Securities.  

Any such amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect any of the interest of the Certificateholders in the Mortgage Loans or the NIM Securities if the Trustee receives written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce, qualify or withdraw the then current rating assigned to the Certificates and the NIM Securities (and any Opinion of Counsel received by the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer and the Seller in connection with any such amendment may rely expressly on such confirmation as the basis therefor).


Section 9.13

Section 9.14

Exhibits.

The exhibits to this Agreement are hereby incorporated and made a part hereof and are an integral part of this Agreement.

Section 9.15

Intended Third Party Beneficiaries.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, the parties to this Agreement agree that it is appropriate, in furtherance of the intent of such parties as set forth herein, that the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer receive the benefit of the provisions of this Agreement as intended third party beneficiaries of this Agreement to the extent of such provisions.  The Servicer shall have the same obligations to the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer as if they were parties to this Agreement, and the Trustee (acting through the Master Servicer) and the NIMS Insurer shall have the same rights and remedies to enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if they were parties to this Agreement.  The Servicer shall only take direction from the Master Servicer (if direction by the Master Servicer is required under this Agreement) unless otherwise directed by this Agreement or the Credit Ri sk Management Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, all rights of the Trustee hereunder and all rights and obligations of the Master Servicer and the Servicer hereunder (other than the right to indemnification) shall terminate upon the termination of the Trust Fund pursuant to the Trust Agreement and all rights of the NIMS Insurer set forth in this Agreement (other than the right of indemnification) shall exist only so long as the NIM Securities remain outstanding or the NIMS Insurer is owed amounts in respect of its guarantee of payment on such NIM Securities.

Section 9.16

Confidentiality.

(a)

Definition.  For the purpose of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean any information (including but not limited to , financial and business information relating to the Servicer’s business or affairs, including but not limited to, products and services, and those in development, and accompanying marketing plans and business strategies, now known or in possession of, or hereafter learned or acquired, by the Servicer, or any third party’s information in the Servicer’s possession which is subject to an obligation on the part of the Servicer to maintain the confidentiality of such information, including without limitation, “non-public personal information” (as defined in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “GLB Act”) and in its enabling regulations issued by the Federal Trade Commission) of customers and custom ers of the Servicer.

(b)

For purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall not include information that:  (i) is or has become publicly known other than as a result of disclosure by the Seller, the Master Servicer or the Trustee (each a “Receiving Party”) in violation of this Agreement; (ii) is received by or available to a Receiving Party properly and lawfully from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without knowledge or reasonable suspicion that the third party’s disclosure is in breach of any obligations to Servicer or anyone else; (iii) has been developed by the Receiving Party completely independent and without the use of any Confidential Information; (iv) has been approved for public release by prior written authorization from the Servicer; or (v) is required to be disclosed by a governmental authority or related governmental agency or is otherwise requi red to be disclosed by law.  For purposes of clause (iv) above, Servicer hereby authorizes without the requirement of the Receiving Parties obtaining from the Servicer any separate or additional prior written authorization, the disclosure of any information relative to the Servicer or the Mortgage Loans by a Receiving Party or its Representatives (as defined below) which is reasonably required to be disclosed, in the normal course of secondary market transactions, to successor purchasers of the Mortgage Loans from the Receiving Parties, to rating agencies, mortgage insurance companies and related financial guaranty insurer of any related mortgage pass-through securities.

Each Receiving Party agrees that:

1.

It shall abide by and respect the Disclosing Party’s rights of any nature (including without limitation obligations imposed upon the Disclosing Party to protect the rights of third parties) in the Confidential Information (including but not limited to, patents, copyrights and trade secrets) and shall maintain and preserve the confidentiality of such information, including but without limitation, taking such steps to protect and preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information as it takes to preserve and protect the confidentiality of its own proprietary and confidential information.

2.

Except as expressly permitted by this Section 9.16, neither Receiving Party nor its subsidiaries, affiliates, and non-affiliated third party vendors and other agents of Receiving Party, as well as any directors, members, officers, and employees of any such entities (collectively, “Representatives”) shall (i) use the Confidential Information, either directly or indirectly, for any purpose other than as contemplated herein or (ii) disclose such Confidential Information to any third party, except to its subcontractors and consultants who have agreed in writing to maintain the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and use the Confidential Information only to the extent required to perform their duties in any manner, in whole or in part, without the express written consent of the Servicer.  Moreover, a Receiving Party shall not, except as otherw ise required by law, issue any reports, statements or releases pertaining to its access to the Confidential Information, or disclose to any third party that such information is transmitted or accessible to a Receiving Party from the Disclosing Party, without the Disclosing Party’s prior written consent.

3.

It shall, upon termination of the business relationship between the parties or at any time upon Servicer’s prior written request, immediately return to Servicer or destroy, as Servicer may direct, all tangible material within its possession, custody or control containing or reflecting any portion of the Confidential Information, and shall make no further use or disclosure of the Confidential Information for any purpose; and upon Servicer’s request, Receiving Party shall promptly certify that such action has been taken.

4.

Each Receiving Party shall establish commercially reasonable controls to ensure the confidentiality of the Confidential Information and to ensure that the Confidential Information is not disclosed contrary to the provisions of this Agreement, the GLB Act, the regulations provided thereunder, or any other applicable privacy laws and regulations.  Without limiting the foregoing, a Receiving Party shall implement such physical and other security measures as are necessary to (i) ensure the security and confidentiality of the Confidential Information, (ii) protect against any unauthorized access to or use of the Confidential Information.

5.

The Servicer shall have the right, during regular office hours and upon reasonable notice, to audit a Receiving Party to ensure compliance with the terms of this Agreement, the GLB Act and other privacy laws and regulations.

Upon receipt of any governmental, judicial or administrative order, subpoena, or discovery request seeking the disclosure of Confidential Information, a Receiving Party shall immediately notify the Servicer in writing of the Confidential Information sought so that the Servicer may seek an appropriate protective order, or take other appropriate measures or, at its discretion, waive Receiving Party’s compliance with the provisions of this Agreement.  A Receiving Party shall cooperate reasonably with the Servicer in contesting such request/demand (at the Servicer’s expense), including consulting as to the advisability of legally attempting to contest or list such request/demand.  If in the absence of a protective order or a waiver hereunder from the Servicer, a Receiving Party is compelled to disclose any Confidential Information to any tribunal or suffer penalty, su ch Receiving Party may disclose such Confidential Information to such tribunal without liability hereunder; provided, however, a Receiving Party:  (i) shall give the Servicer written notice of the Confidential Information to be so disclosed as far in advance of its disclosure as is practicable; (ii) shall furnish only that portion of the Confidential Information which it is legally required to; and (iii) shall use best efforts to obtain an order or other reliable assurance that confidential treatment will be accorded to such portions of the Confidential Information to be disclosed as the Disclosing Party designates.

(c)

Except as otherwise specifically provided for herein, each party hereto agrees that this Section 9.16 shall remain in force and effect in perpetuity with regard to any information as defined by the GLB Act and other privacy related laws, rules and regulations.

Section 9.17

Subject

“Full-File” Reporting to Credit Repositories




Part IV, Section 107, of the servicing Guide currently requires servicers to report only 90-day delinquencies to the four major credit repositories.  To ensure that the repositories have up-to-date information for both servicing and origination activity, we have decided to begin requiring -- as of the month ending March 31, 1996 -- servicers to provide the credit repositories a “full-file” status report for the mortgages they service for us.

“Full-file” reporting requires that servicers submit a monthly report to each of the credit repositories to describe the exact status for each mortgage they service for us.  The status reported generally should be the one in effect as of the last business day of each month.  Servicers may, however, use a slightly later cut-off date -- for example, at the and of the first week of a month -- to assure that payment corrections, returned checks, and other adjustments related to the previous month’s activity can be appropriately reflected in their report for that month.  Statuses that must be reported for any given mortgage include the following: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, and charged-off.  (The credit repositories will provide the applicable codes for reporting these statuses to them.)  A listing of each of the majo r repositories to which “full-file” status reports must be sent is attached.


Servicers are responsible for the complete and accurate reporting of mortgage status information to the repositories and for resolving any disputes that arise about the information they report.  Servicers must respond promptly to any inquiries from borrowers regarding specific mortgage status information about them that was reported to the credit repositories.


Servicers should contact their Customer Account Team in their lead Fannie Mae regional office if they have any questions about this expanded reporting requirement.

WHEREAS, at or prior to the Closing Date (as defined herein) pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2004, the Bank shall assign all of its right, title and interest in and to certain Bank Mortgage Loans to LBH, and LBH shall assume all the rights and obligations of the Bank with respect to such Bank Mortgage Loans under the Bank Servicing Agreement;

WHEREAS, LBH has conveyed the Bank Mortgage Loans identified on Exhibit A hereto (collectively, the “Mortgage Loans”) on a servicing-retained basis to Structured Asset Securities Corporation (the “Depositor”), which in turn has conveyed the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee under a trust agreement dated as of August 1, 2004 (the “Trust Agreement”), among the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as securities administrator (the “Securities Administrator”) and The Murrayhill Company, as the credit risk manager (the “Credit Risk Manager”);

WHEREAS, multiple classes of certificates (the “Certificates”), including the Class P and the Class X Certificates, will be issued on the Closing Date pursuant to the Trust Agreement, and Lehman Brothers Inc. or a nominee thereof is expected to be the initial registered holder of the Class P and Class X Certificates;

WHEREAS, subsequent to the Closing Date, Lehman Brothers Inc. intends to convey all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Class P and the Class X Certificates and all payments and all other proceeds received thereunder to an owner trust or other special purpose entity in which it will hold the sole equity interest, and which owner trust or special purpose entity will issue net interest margin securities (“NIM Securities”) through an indenture trust, such NIM Securities secured, in part, by the payments on such Certificates (the “NIMS Transaction”);

Assignment of Mortgage:  An assignment of the Mortgage, notice of transfer or equivalent instrument in recordable form (except for the omission of the assignee’s name), sufficient under the laws of the jurisdiction wherein the related Mortgaged Property is located to reflect the transfer of the Mortgage to the party indicated therein, which assignment, notice of transfer or equivalent instrument may be in the form of one or more blanket assignments covering the Mortgage Loans secured by Mortgaged Properties located in the same jurisdiction, if permitted by law.

Balloon Mortgage Loan:  Any Mortgage Loan that by its original terms or by virtue of any modification provides for an amortization schedule extending beyond its originally scheduled Maturity Date and which has a final scheduled payment that is proportionately large in comparison to other scheduled payments.

Balloon Payment:  The final scheduled payment in respect of a Balloon Mortgage Loan.

Bank:  As defined in the first RECITAL of this Agreement.

Business Day:  Any day other than (i) a Saturday or Sunday or (ii) a day on which banking and savings and loan institutions in the States of Colorado, Florida, California, Minnesota, New York, Maryland or the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania are authorized or obligated by law or executive order to be closed.

Where any reference is made in this Agreement to more than one Business Day, such reference, except as otherwise expressly provided herein, shall mean consecutive Business Days.

Closing Date:  August 27, 2004.

Code:  The Internal Revenue Code of 1986, as it may be amended from time to time or any successor statute thereto, and applicable U.S. Department of the Treasury regulations issued pursuant thereto.

Costs:  For any Person, any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses of such Person.

Custodial Account:  The separate account or accounts created and maintained by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.03.  Initially, the Trust Custodial Account will constitute the only Custodial Account established under this Agreement.

Custodial Agreement:  The custodial arrangement relating to custody of the Mortgage Loans between the Custodian and the Trustee, which is provided for in Article II of the Trust Agreement.

Custodian:  Each of LaSalle Bank National Association and Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. and its respective successors and assigns.

Cut-off Date:  August 1, 2004.

Delinquent:  For reporting purposes, a Mortgage Loan is “Delinquent” when any payment contractually due thereon has not been made by the close of business on the Due Date therefore.  Such Mortgage Loan is “30 days Delinquent” if such payment has not been received by the close of business on the corresponding day of the month immediately succeeding the month in which such payment was first due, or, if there is not such corresponding day (e.g., as when a 30-day month follows a 31-day month in which a payment was due on the 31st day of such month), then on the last day of such immediately succeeding month.  Similarly for “60 days Delinquent” and the second immediately succeeding month and “90 days Delinquent” and the third immediately succeeding month.  

Depositor: Structured Asset Securities Corporation, a Delaware corporation, or any successor in interest.

Determination Date:  With respect to each Remittance Date, the 15th day of the month in which such Remittance Date occurs, or, if such 15th day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day.

Distressed Mortgage Loan:  As of any Transfer Date, any Mortgage Loan that was Delinquent in payment for a period of 90 days or more as of the first calendar day of the month in which such Transfer Date occurs, without giving effect to any grace period permitted by the related Mortgage Note or for which the Servicer has accepted a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  No Mortgage Loan shall be considered Delinquent for the purpose of this definition by virtue of the related Mortgagor having made payment to the prior servicer.

Distribution Date:  Commencing in September 2004, the 25th day of each month (or if such day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day).  

Due Date:  The day of the calendar month on which the Monthly Payment is due on a Mortgage Loan, exclusive of any days of grace.  With respect to the Mortgage Loans for which payment from the Mortgagor is due on a day other than the first day of the calendar month, such Mortgage Loans will be treated as if the Monthly Payment is due on the first day of the immediately succeeding month.

Due Period:  With respect to each Remittance Date, the period commencing on the second day of the month immediately preceding the month of the Remittance Date and ending on the first day of the month of the Remittance Date.

Eligible Deposit Account:  An account that is maintained with a federal or state-chartered depository institution or trust company that complies with the definition of Eligible Institution.

Eligible Institution:  Any of the following:

(i)

an institution whose:

commercial paper, short-term debt obligations, demand deposits, or other short-term deposits are rated at least “A-2” by S&P, if the amounts on deposit are to be held in the account for no more than 30 days and are not intended to be used as credit enhancement.  Upon the loss of the required rating set forth in this clause (ii), the accounts shall be transferred immediately to accounts which have the required rating.  Furthermore, commingling by the Servicer is acceptable at the A-2 rating level if the Servicer is a bank, thrift, or depository and provided the Servicer has the capability to immediately segregate funds and commence remittance to an Eligible Deposit Account upon a downgrade; or

(ii)

the  corporate trust department of a federal depository institution or state-chartered depository institution subject to regulations regarding fiduciary funds on deposit similar to Title 12 of the U.S. Code of Federal Regulation Section 9.10(b), which, in either case, has corporate trust powers and is acting in its fiduciary capacity.

Eligible Investments:  Any one or more of the obligations and securities listed below which investment provides for a date of maturity not later than the Determination Date in each month:

(iii)

repurchase agreements collateralized by Direct Obligations or securities guaranteed by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with any registered broker/dealer subject to Securities Investors’ Protection Corporation jurisdiction or any commercial bank insured by the FDIC, if such broker/dealer or bank has an uninsured, unsecured and unguaranteed obligation rated by each Rating Agency in its highest short-term rating category;

(viii)

any other demand, money market, common trust fund or time deposit or obligation, or interest bearing or other security or investment, (A) rated in the highest rating category by each Rating Agency or (B) that is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and would not adversely affect the then current rating by any Rating Agency then rating the Certificates or the NIM Securities.  Such investments in this subsection (viii) may include money market mutual funds or common trust funds, including any fund for which the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any affiliate thereof serves as an investment advisor, administrator, shareholder servicing agent, and/or custodian or subcustodian, notwithstanding that (x) the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any affiliate thereof charges and collects fees and expenses from such funds for services rendered, (y) the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer or any affiliate thereof charges and collects fees and expenses for services rendered pursuant to this Agreement, and (z) services performed for such funds and pursuant to this Agreement may converge at any time; provided, however, that no such instrument shall be an Eligible Investment if such instrument evidences either (i) a right to receive only interest payments with respect to the obligations underlying such instrument, or (ii) both principal and interest payments derived from obligations underlying such instrument and the principal and interest payments with respect to such instrument provide a yield to maturity of greater than 120% of the yield to maturity at par of such underlying obligations.

(a)

If applicable, the Servicer shall, in accordance with the relevant provisions of the Cranston-Gonzales National Affordable Housing Act of 1990, as the same may be amended from time to time, and the regulations provided in accordance with the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, provide notice to the Mortgagor of each Mortgage Loan of the transfer of the servicing thereto to the Servicer.

The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to a Mortgage Loan constituting Escrow Payments separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled “Option One Mortgage Corporation in trust for LaSalle Bank National Association, as Trustee for Structured Asset Investment Loan Trust, 2004-8.”  The Escrow Accounts shall be established with an Eligible Institution in a manner that shall provide maximum available insurance thereunder.  Funds deposited in the Escrow Account may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.06.  The creation of any Escrow Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement in the form of Exhibit C.  A copy of such certification or letter agreement shall be furnished to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and, upon request, to any subsequent owner of the Mortgage Loans.

The Servicer shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts on a daily basis, and retain therein

(i)

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

(ii)

all amounts representing Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds that are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Mortgage Property.

The Servicer shall make withdrawals from the Escrow Account only to effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, as set forth in Section 3.06.  The Servicer shall retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the depository institution, other than interest on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to the Mortgagor.  Additionally, any other benefit derived from the Escrow Account associated with the receipt, disbursement and accumulation of principal, interest, taxes, hazard insurance, mortgage insurance, etc. shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer.  To the extent required by law, the Servicer shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow Account may be non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes.

Section 3.06.

Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account.

Withdrawals from the Escrow Account or Accounts may be made by the Servicer only:

(i)

to effect payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, sewer rents, mortgage insurance premiums, condominium charges, fire and hazard insurance premiums or other items constituting Escrow Payments for the related Mortgage;

(ii)

to refund to any Mortgagor any funds found to be in excess of the amounts required under the terms of the related Mortgage Loan;

(iii)

as permitted by applicable state law, for transfer to the Trust Custodial Account and application to reduce the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note;

(iv)

for application to restore or repair the Mortgaged Property in accordance with Section 3.07;

(v)

to pay to the Servicer, or any Mortgagor to the extent required by law, any interest paid on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account;

(vi)

to reimburse itself for any Servicing Advances made with respect to Escrow Payments for a Mortgage Loan or the related Mortgaged Properties;

(vii)

to withdraw any funds deposited into the Escrow Account inadvertently in error; and

(viii)

to clear and terminate the Escrow Account on the termination of this Agreement.

The Servicer will be responsible for the administration of the Escrow Accounts and will be obligated to make Servicing Advances to the Escrow Account in respect of its obligations under this Section 3.06, reimbursable from the Escrow Accounts or Trust Custodial Account to the extent not collected from the related Mortgagor, anything to the contrary notwithstanding, when and as necessary to avoid the lapse of insurance coverage on the Mortgaged Property, or which the Servicer knows, or in the exercise of the required standard of care of the Servicer hereunder should know, is necessary to avoid the loss of the Mortgaged Property due to a tax sale or the foreclosure as a result of a tax lien.  If any such payment has not been made and the Servicer receives notice of a tax lien with respect to the Mortgage being imposed, the Servicer will, within ten (10) Business Days of such notice, advance or cause to be advanced funds necessary to discharge such lien on the Mortgaged Property.

Section 3.07.

Restoration of Mortgaged Property.

The Servicer need not obtain the approval of the Master Servicer prior to releasing any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the Mortgagor to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property if such release is in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  At a minimum, with respect to claims of $10,000 or more, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:

(i)

the Servicer shall receive satisfactory independent verification of completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;

(ii)

the Servicer shall take all steps necessary to preserve the priority of the lien of the Mortgage, including, but not limited to requiring waivers with respect to mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens;

(iii)

the Servicer shall verify that the Mortgage Loan is not 60 or more days delinquent;

(iv)

pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in the Escrow Account;

With respect to claims of less than $10,000, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds;

(v)

related Mortgagor shall provide an affidavit verifying the completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;

(vi)

Servicer shall verify the total amount of the claim with the applicable insurance company; and

(vii)

pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in the Escrow Agreement.  If the Trustee is named as an additional loss payee, the Servicer is hereby empowered to endorse any loss draft issued in respect of such a claim in the name of the Trustee.

Section 3.08.

Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Servicer shall keep in force during the term of this Agreement a Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance the minimum coverage of which shall be at least equal to the coverage required by Freddie Mac in the Freddie Mac Guide or Fannie Mae in the Fannie Mae Guides (unless a waiver of such requirement has been obtained by the Servicer from either Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae).  Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance shall be maintained with recognized insurers, shall be in such form and amount as would permit the Servicer to be qualified as a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac seller/servicer, and shall by its terms not be cancelable without thirty days’ prior written notice to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.  The Servicer shall be deemed to have complied with this provision if an affiliate of the Servicer has such errors and omissi ons and fidelity bond coverage and, by the terms of such insurance policy or fidelity bond, the coverage afforded thereunder extends to the Servicer.  The Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer a copy of each such bond and insurance policy upon their request.

Section 3.09.

Notification of Adjustments.

With respect to each Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Interest Rate on the related interest rate adjustment date and shall adjust the Monthly Payment on the related mortgage payment adjustment date, if applicable, 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 and Monthly Payment adjustments.  The Servicer shall promptly, upon written request therefor, deliver to the Master Servicer 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 Master Servicer that the Servicer has failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate or Monthly Payment in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note, the Servicer shall immediately deposit in the Trust Custodial Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss or deferral caused thereby.

With respect to On-time Advantage Program Rate Reduction Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall adjust the Mortgage Interest Rate on the related rate reduction date in accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note, and shall adjust the Monthly Payment for such Mortgage Loan, accordingly.

Section 3.10.

Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan which provides for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of 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 or applicable regulations.  The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the payment of all such bills and shall effect payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of the same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.  With respect to non-escrowed Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall employ Accepted Servicing Practices to determine that any such payments are made by the Mortgagor at the time they are first to become due and to ensure that the Mortgaged Property is not subjected to a tax lien as a result of nonpayment and that such Mortgaged Property is not left uninsured.  The Servicer shall advance its funds to effect payments on any such delinquent payments to avoid lapse of insurance coverage on the Mortgage Property or to avoid the sale or other loss of the Mortgaged Property to a tax lien.  Such advances made by the Servicer shall be considered Servicing Advances subject to reimbursement pursuant to Section 3.04 herein.

Section 3.11.

Protection of Accounts.

The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account to a different Eligible Institution from time to time; provided that in the event the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account is held in a depository institution or trust company that ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer shall transfer such Custodial Account or Escrow Account, as the case may be, to an Eligible Institution.  The Servicer shall give notice to the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer of the location of each Custodial Account maintained by it with respect to the Mortgage Loans when established and prior to any change thereof.

The Servicer shall bear any expenses, losses or damages sustained by the Trustee or the Master Servicer if the Trust Custodial Account and/or the Escrow Account are not demand deposit accounts.

Amounts on deposit in the Trust Custodial Account and the Escrow Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Eligible Investments; provided that in the event that amounts on deposit in the Trust Custodial Account or the Escrow Account exceed the amount fully insured by the FDIC (the “Insured Amount”), the Servicer shall be obligated to invest the excess amount over the Insured Amount in Eligible Investments on the same Business Day as such excess amount becomes present in the Trust Custodial Account or the Escrow Account.  Any such Eligible Investment shall mature no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the related Remittance Date.  Any such Eligible Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Trustee.  All income on or gain realized from any such Eligible Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer.  Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Trust Custodial Account or the Escrow Account by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized.

Section 3.12.

Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

In the event that title to any 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 LaSalle Bank National Association (or, if applicable the name of any successor trustee), as trustee for Securitized Asset Investment Loan Trust Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates Series 2004-8 or its nominee, or in the event the Trustee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located.  The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the Trustee.

The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.  The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall 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.  The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trust Fund.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Section 3.12, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the Servicer has reasonable cause to believe that a Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Master Servicer or NIMS Insurer otherwise requests, an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgaged Property to be conducted by a qualified inspector shall be arranged by the Servicer.  Upon completion of the inspection, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and NIMS Insurer with a written report of such environmental inspection.  In the event that the environmental inspection report indicates that the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  In the event that the environmental inspection report is inconclusive as to the whether or not the Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, the Servicer shall not, without the prior approval of both the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  In such instance, the Master Servicer and/or the NIMS Insurer shall be deemed to have approved such foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure unless either notifies the Servicer in writing, within three (3) days after its receipt of written notice of the proposed foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure from the Servicer, that it disapproves of the related foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure.  The Servicer shall be reimbursed for all Servicing Advances made pursuant to this paragraph with respect to the related Mortgaged Property from the Trust Custodial Account.

In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service (and provide a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer) to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC.  If the Servicer has received such an extension (and provide a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer), then the Servicer shall con tinue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”).  If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending 3 months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value, as acceptable to the NIMS Insurer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be.  The Trustee shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such grant of extension.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would:  (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan at the time it becomes an REO Property.

Each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Servicer at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Servicer reasonably determines to be in the best interest of the Certificateholders and provided the sales price and the related terms and conditions are results of arm’s-length negotiation.  The proceeds of sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Trust Custodial Account.  After the expenses of such disposition shall have been paid, the Servicer shall reimburse itself pursuant to Section 3.04 hereof for any Servicing Advances, Servicing Fees and Monthly Advances it incurred with respect to such REO Property.

The Servicer shall withdraw from the Trust Custodial Account funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to the Freddie Mac Guides or the Fannie Mae Guide.

Section 3.13.

Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 4.02, the Servicer shall furnish by electronic transmission to the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager and the NIMS Insurer on or before the Remittance Date each month a statement with respect to any REO Property covering the operation of such REO Property for the previous month and the Servicer’s efforts in connection with the sale of such REO Property and any rental of such REO Property incidental to the sale thereof for the previous month.  That statement shall be accompanied by such other information as either the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager or the NIMS Insurer shall reasonably request.

Section 3.14.

[Reserved].

Section 3.15.

Waiver of Prepayment Charges.

Except as provided below, the Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge with respect to any Mortgage Loan.  If the Servicer or its designee fails to collect a Prepayment Charge or waives a Prepayment Charge except as provided in clauses (i), (ii) or (iii) below of this Section 3.15, at the time of the related prepayment of any Mortgage Loan subject to such Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall pay to the Trust Fund at such time (by deposit to the Trust Custodial Account) an amount equal to the amount of the Prepayment Charge not collected.  Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or its designee may waive (and shall waive, in the case of (iii) below) a Prepayment Charge without paying to the Trust Fund the amount of such Prepayment Charge only if the related prepayment is not the result of a refinancing by the Servicer or i ts designee and such waiver (i) relates to a defaulted Mortgage Loan or a reasonably foreseeable default, such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans to the Mortgage Loans, and such waiver, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would maximize recovery of total proceeds from the Mortgage Loan, taking into account the amount of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (ii) relates to a prepayment charge the collection of which, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would be a violation of applicable laws or (iii) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, any Prepayment Charge in any instance when a Mortgage Loan is in foreclosure.

Section 3.16.

Servicing and Administration of PMI Policies.

(a)

The Servicer shall take all such actions on behalf of the Trustee as are necessary to service, maintain and administer PMI Policies and to perform and enforce the rights under such Policies for its own account.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the Servicer shall have full authority on behalf of the Trust to do anything it reasonably deems appropriate or desirable in connection with the servicing, maintenance and administration of the PMI Policies.  The Servicer shall not take, or permit any subservicer to modify or assume a Mortgage Loan covered by a PMI Policy or take any other action with respect to such Mortgage Loan which would result in non-coverage under any PMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer or subservicer, would have been covered thereunder.  If a PMI Insurer fails to pay a claim under a PMI Policy as a result of breach by the Servicer or a sub-servicer of its obligations hereunder or under a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Trust Custodial Account on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance Date an amount equal to such unpaid claim from its own funds without any right to reimbursement from the Trust Fund.  To the extent coverage is available, the Servicer shall keep or cause to be kept in full force and effect the Insurance Policies for as long as any Certificates are outstanding.  The Servicer shall cooperate with each PMI Insurer and shall use its best efforts to furnish all reasonable aid, evidence and information in the possession of the Servicer to which the Servicer has access with respect to any Mortgage Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any reports to a PMI Insurer until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient l oan level information from LBH to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with such PMI Insurer’s requirements.

(b)

The Servicer shall deposit into the Trust Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(xiii) hereof all Insurance Proceeds received from the PMI Insurer under the terms of a PMI Policy.  

(c)

Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) and (b) above, the Servicer shall not take any action in regard to any PMI Policy inconsistent with the interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders or with the rights and interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders under this Agreement.  

(d)

The Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents (within fifteen (15) days upon request from the Servicer) in form as provided to it necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer any PMI Policy; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such powers of attorney.

Section 3.17.

Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.  

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the current principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis, in each case in an amount not less than the amount as is necessary to avoid the application of any co-insurance clause contained in the related hazard insurance policy.

Any payments by the Servicer for hazard insurance, other than as set forth in the last paragraph of this Section 3.17, shall be deemed Servicing Advances, reimbursable in accordance with Section 3.04(ix), to the extent not collected from the related Mortgagor.  The Servicer will comply in the performance of this Agreement with all reasonable rules and requirements of each insurer under any such hazard policies.  Any amounts to be collected by the Servicer under any such policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property or amounts to be released to the Mortgagor subject to the terms and conditions of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note) shall be deposited in the Trust Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.04, if received in respect of a Mortgage Loan.  Any cost incurred by the Servicer in ma intaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to Certificateholders, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit.  It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.  If the Mortgaged Property or REO Property is at any time in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and flood insurance has been made available, the Servicer will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy in respect thereof.  Such flood insurance shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan and (ii) the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under the national flood insurance program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program).

In the event that the Servicer shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy with an insurer having a General Policy Rating of B:III or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide (or such other rating that is comparable to such rating) insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in the first two sentences of this Section 3.17, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Servicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with the first two sentences of this Section 3.17, and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy, deposit to the Trust Custodial Account from its own funds without right of reimburs ement the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause.  In connection with its activities as administrator and servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, the Trustee and the Certificateholders, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.

Section 3.18.

Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

(a)

The Servicer shall, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans (including selling any such Mortgage Loans other than converting the ownership of the related properties) as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments.  The Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable as Servicing Advances by the Servicer as contemplated in Section 3.04.  The foregoing is subject to the provision that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage from an uninsured cause, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such Mortgaged Property unless in its determination such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan after reimbursement to itself for such expenses.

(b)

Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds, REO Disposition Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds, in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the following order of priority:  first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; second, to reimburse the Servicer or any sub-servicer for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances and  Monthly Advances pursuant to Section 3.04; third, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery Determination, or to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to be distributed if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination; and fourth, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan.

Section 3.19.

Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreement.  

The Servicer will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance of any Mortgaged Property by any Mortgagor (whether by absolute conveyance or contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under the “due-on-sale” clause, if any, applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be required to take such action if in its sole business judgment the Servicer believes it is not in the best interests of the Trust Fund and shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so. If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, or if any of the other conditions set forth in the proviso to the preceding sentence apply, the Servicer will enter into an assumption and modification agreement from or with the person to whom such property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. The Servicer is also authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with such person, pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and such person is substituted as the Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note, provided that no such substitution shall be effective unless such person satisfies the underwriting criteria of the Servicer and has a credit risk rating at least equal to that of the original Mortgagor.  In connection with any assumption or substitution, the Servicer shall apply its own underwriting standards should such standards follow such Accepted Servicing Practices and procedures as shal l be normal and usual in its general mortgage servicing activities and as it applies to other mortgage loans owned solely by it.  The Servicer shall not take or enter into any assumption and modification agreement, however, unless (to the extent practicable in the circumstances) it shall have received confirmation, in writing, of the continued effectiveness of any applicable hazard insurance policy.  Any fee collected by the Servicer in respect of an assumption, modification or substitution of liability agreement shall be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.  In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the Mortgage Note (including but not limited to the related Mortgage Interest Rate and the amount of the Monthly Payment) may be amended or modified, except as otherwise required pursuant to the terms thereof.  The Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer that any such substitution, modification or assumption agreement has been contemplated by forwarding to each of them a copy of such agreement (identifying the Mortgage File to which it relates).  The Servicer shall forward an original copy of such document to the Custodian to be held by such Custodian with the other documents related to such Mortgage Loan.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or by the terms of the Mortgage Note or any assumption which the Servicer may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatever.  For purposes of this Section 3.19, the term “assumption” is deemed to also include a sale (of the Mortgaged Property) subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.  

Section 3.20.

Safeguarding Customer Information.  

The Servicer has implemented and will maintain security measures designed to meet the objectives of the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information published in final form on February 1, 2001, 66 Fed. Reg. 8616 and the rules promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time (the “Guidelines”).  

The Servicer shall promptly provide the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer information reasonably available to it regarding such security measures upon the reasonable request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer which information shall include, but not be limited to, any Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70 report covering the Servicer’s operations, and any other audit reports, summaries of test results or equivalent measures taken by the Servicer with respect to its security measures to the extent reasonably necessary in order for the Seller to satisfy its obligations under the Guidelines.

Section 3.21.

Superior Liens.

The Servicer shall file (or cause to be filed) a request for notice of any action by a superior lienholder under a Superior Lien for the protection of the Trustee’s interest, where permitted by local law and whenever applicable state law does not require that a junior lienholder be named as a party defendant in foreclosure proceedings in order to foreclosure such junior lienholder’s equity of redemption.

If the Servicer is notified that any superior lienholder has accelerated or intends to accelerate the obligations secured by the Superior Lien, or has declared or intends to declare a default under the mortgage or the promissory note secured thereby, or has filed or intends to file an election to have the Mortgaged Property sold or foreclosed, the Servicer shall take, on behalf of the Trust, whatever actions are necessary to protect the interests of the Trust Fund in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  The Servicer shall not make such a Servicing Advance except to the extent that it determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such advance would be recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds on the related Second Lien Mortgage Loan.  The Servicer shall thereafter take such action as is necessary to recover the amount so advanced.

ARTICLE IV.

PAYMENTS TO MASTER SERVICER

Section 4.01.

Section 4.02.

Statements to Master Servicer.

Not later than the 5th calendar day of each month (or if such calendar day is not a Business Day, the immediately succeeding Business Day), the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer (a) a monthly remittance advice in the format set forth in Exhibit D-1 hereto and a monthly defaulted loan report in the format set forth in Exhibit D-2 hereto (or upon such other format mutually agreed to between the Servicer and the Master Servicer) and (b) all such information required pursuant to clause (a) above on a magnetic tape, electronic mail, or other similar media reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.  The format of this monthly reporting may be amended from time to time to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law.

Such monthly remittance advice shall also be accompanied with a supplemental report provided to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller which includes on an aggregate basis for the previous Due Period (i) the amount of claims filed, (ii) the amount of any claim payments made, (iii) the amount of claims denied or curtailed and (iv) policies cancelled with respect to those Mortgage Loans covered by any PMI Policy purchased by the Seller on behalf of the Trust Fund.  In addition, the Servicer shall include in such monthly remittance advice any change in the Servicing Fee Rate for the related Due Period with respect to the Stepped Servicing Fee Mortgage Loans. The Master Servicer will convert such data into a format acceptable to the Trustee and provide monthly reports to the Trustee pursuant to the Trust Agreement; provided, however, notwithstandin g anything to the contrary contained in a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any supplemental reports including the foregoing data with respect to a PMI Policy until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from the Seller to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with the PMI Insurer’s requirements.

In addition, not more than 60 days after the end of each calendar year, commencing December 31, 2004, the Servicer shall provide (as such information becomes reasonably available to the Servicer) to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer such information concerning the Mortgage Loans and annual remittances to the Master Servicer therefrom as is necessary for each Certificateholder to prepare its federal income tax return.  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 to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.

Beginning with calendar year 2004, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer with such information concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary for the Master Servicer to prepare the Trust Fund’s federal income tax return and for any investor in the Certificates to prepare any required tax return.

Section 4.03.

Monthly Advances by Servicer.

On the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deposit in the Trust Custodial Account from its own funds or from amounts held for future distribution, or both, an amount equal to the aggregate of all Monthly Advances relating to Monthly Payments 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.  Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be replaced by the Servicer by deposit in the Trust Custodial Account on or before any future Remittance Date if funds in the Trust Custodial Account on such Remittance Date shall be less than remittances to the Master Servicer required to be made on such Remittance Date.  The Servicer shall keep appropriate records of such amounts and will provide such reco rds to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer upon request.  No provision in this Agreement shall be construed as limiting the Servicer’s right to (i) pass through late collections on the related Mortgage Loans in lieu of making Monthly Advances (ii) reimburse itself for such Monthly Advances from late collections on the related Mortgage Loans or (iii) utilize an Advancing Person (as defined below).

The Servicer shall make Monthly Advances through the Distribution Date immediately preceding the distribution of all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds) with respect to the related Mortgage Loans; provided, however, the Servicer may cease to make Monthly Advances when it deems such Advance to be a Nonrecoverable Advance.  

The Servicer may enter into a facility with any person which provides that such person (an “Advancing Person”) may fund Monthly Advances required under this Section 4.03 and/or Servicing Advances, although no such facility shall reduce or otherwise affect the Servicer’s obligation to fund such Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances.  Any Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances made by an Advancing Person shall be reimbursed to the Advancing Person by the Servicer in the same manner as reimbursements would be made to the Servicer under Section 3.04 if such Monthly Advances or Servicing Advance were funded by the Servicer; provided that neither the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer or the Trust Fund shall have any liability or obligation to make any payment to any Advancing Person, nor shall any of them have any liability for any Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances reimbursed to the Servicer rather than to an Advancing Person.

Section 4.04.

Compensating Interest.

The Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Trust Custodial Account, and retain therein with respect to each Principal Prepayment, the Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount, if any, for the related Due Period.  Such deposit shall be made from the Servicer’s own funds, without reimbursement therefore, up to an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount or (ii) the Compensating Interest Maximum Amount.  The Servicer shall not be obligated to pay any Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount with respect to any Relief Act Reduction or bankruptcy.

Section 4.05.

Credit Reporting.

For each Mortgage Loan, in accordance with its current servicing practices, the Servicer will accurately and fully report its underlying borrower credit files to each of the following credit repositories or their successors:  Equifax Credit Information Services, Inc., Trans Union, LLC and Experian Information Solution, Inc., on a monthly basis in a timely manner.  In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced for a Fannie Mae pool, the Servicer shall transmit full credit reporting data to each of such credit repositories in accordance with Fannie Mae Guide Announcement 95-19 (November 20, 1995), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit H, reporting each of the following statuses, each month with respect to a Mortgage Loan in a Fannie Mae pool: New origination, current, delinquent (30-60-90-days, etc), foreclosed or charged off.

THE SERVICER

Section 7.01.

Merger or Consolidation of the Servicer.

The Servicer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a corporation, and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign entity in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this Agreement.

Any Person into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Servicer, shall, with the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, be the successor of the Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person shall be an institution (i) having a net worth of not less than $15,000,000, and (ii) which is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and is a Freddie Mac- or Fannie Mae-approved servicer in good standing.

Section 7.02.

Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others.

Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor or the Trustee hereunder for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in strict compliance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima fa cie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer, undertake any such action which it deems necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto.  In such event, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Fund for the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.

Section 7.03.

Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by the Servicer.

The Seller has entered into this Agreement with the Servicer in reliance upon the independent status of the Servicer, and the representations as to the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plant, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing, and the continuance thereof.  Therefore, the Servicer shall neither assign its rights under this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, which consent, shall not be unreasonably withheld; provided, that in each case, there must be delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee a letter from each Rating Agency to the e ffect that such transfer of servicing or sale or disposition of assets will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or of the NIM Securities.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer, without the consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, may retain third-party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and administration, collection services and similar functions; provided, however, that the retention of such contractors by Servicer shall not limit the obligation of the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Servicer.  Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.  No such resignation shall become effective until a successor acceptable to the NIMS Insurer shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 9.01.

Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 7.03, in the event that the Servicer either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, then such parties shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice given as set forth in Section 8.01, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Servicer or any third party.

Section 7.04.

Subservicing Agreements and Successor Subservicer.

(a)

The Servicer may enter into subservicing agreements for any servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans with any institution which (i) is an approved Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac Servicer as indicated in writing, (ii) which represents and warrants that it is in compliance with the laws of each state as necessary to enable it to perform its obligations under such subservicing agreement and (iii) which is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer.  For this purpose, subservicing shall not be deemed to include the use of a tax service, or services for reconveyance, insurance or brokering REO Property.  The Servicer shall give prior written notice to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of the appointment of any subservicer and shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer a copy of such subservicing agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, the S ervicer shall be deemed to have received payments on Mortgage Loans immediately upon receipt by any subservicer of such payments.  Any such subservicing agreement shall be acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement.  Each subservicing agreement shall provide that a successor servicer shall have the option to terminate such agreement without payment of any fees if the predecessor Servicer is terminated or resigns.  

(b)

The Servicer, with the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, may terminate any subservicing agreement to which it is a party in accordance with the terms and conditions of such subservicing agreement and either itself directly service the related Mortgage Loans or enter into a subservicing agreement with a successor subservicer that qualifies under Section 7.04(a).

(c)

Notwithstanding any subservicing agreement or the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a subservicer or reference to actions taken through a subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders for the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such subservicing agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.  The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such sub servicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

Section 7.05.

Inspection.  

Upon reasonable advance notice (such advance notice to be no less than two (2) full Business Days advance notice), the Servicer shall accommodate the Master Servicer’s and the NIMS Insurer’s access during normal business hours, to all records maintained by the Servicer in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Servicer responsible for such obligations.  Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer its most recent publicly available financial statements and such other information relating to its capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII.

By a written notice, the Master Servicer, with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, or the NIMS Insurer may waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences.  Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this 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.

Section 8.02.

Termination Without Cause.

(a)

This Agreement shall terminate upon:  (i) the later of (a) the distribution of the final payment or liquidation proceeds on the last Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer or Trust Fund, and (b) the disposition of all REO Property acquired upon foreclosure of the last Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder or (ii) mutual consent of the Servicer and the Master Servicer in writing, provided such termination is also acceptable to the Rating Agencies and the NIMS Insurer or (iii) with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans, at the sole option of the Seller, without cause, upon 30 days’ written notice to the Servicer, subject to payment by the Seller of the Termination Fee as set forth in Exhibit E hereto or other fees as mutually agreed upon by the parties and to the other limitations set forth below.  Any such notice of termination shall be in writing and delivered to the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer by registered mail to the address set forth in Section 9.03.  In connection with any termination pursuant to clause (i) of the first sentence of Section 8.02(a), all unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances still owing the Servicer shall be deducted by the Servicer from the final remittance of the funds to the Master Servicer.  In connection with any termination pursuant to clauses (ii) or (iii) of the first sentence of this Section 8.02(a), all unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances, Monthly Advances and applicable Termination Fees still owing the Servicer shall be paid at the time of such termination by the Trust Fund by deducting from final remittance of the funds to successor servicer (on first three items) and by the Seller (on Termination Fee).  

Upon a termination of the Servicer for cause pursuant to Section 8.01, all unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances still owing the Servicer shall be paid by the Trust Fund as such amounts are received from the related Mortgage Loans.

In the event that Seller terminates the Servicer without cause with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 8.02(a)(iii), the Seller shall be required to pay to the Servicer a Termination Fee in the amount set forth at Exhibit E hereto as of the date of such termination; provided, that no Termination Fee shall be paid or payable with respect to the unpaid principal balance of any terminated Distressed Mortgage Loan.

(b)

 In the event the Servicer decides to terminate its obligations under this Agreement as set forth in clause (ii) of Section 8.02(a), the Servicer agrees that it will continue to service the Mortgage Loans beyond the prescribed termination date until such time as the Master Servicer, using reasonable commercial efforts, is able to appoint a successor servicer acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and otherwise meeting the characteristics of Sections 7.01 and 9.01.

Section 8.03.

Termination for Distressed Mortgage Loans.  

(a) Subject to the requirements set forth in this Section 8.03, the Seller may terminate this Agreement with the prior consent of the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer, with respect to the servicing of those Mortgage Loans that are determined to be Distressed Mortgage Loans as of the Notice Date and servicing of such Mortgage Loans shall be transferred to the Special Servicer.  The appointment of a Special Servicer by the Seller and the execution of a special servicing agreement between the Seller and the Special Servicer shall be subject to the consent of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and the receipt of confirmation from the Rating Agencies that the transfer of servicing to the Special Servicer shall not result in a reduction of any rating previously given by such Rating Agency to any Certificate or the NIM Securities.  Any monthly fee paid to t he Special Servicer in connection with any Mortgage Loan serviced by such Special Servicer shall not exceed one-twelfth of the product of (a) 0.50% and (b) the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan.  All unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances owing to the Servicer relating to such Distressed Mortgage Loans shall be reimbursed and paid to the Servicer upon such transfer to the Special Servicer.

(b)

All reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with a transfer of servicing to the Special Servicer including, without limitation, the costs and expenses of the Trustee or any other Person in appointing a Special Servicer, or of the Servicer in transferring the Servicing Files and the other necessary data to the Special Servicer, shall be paid by the Seller from its own funds without reimbursement to the related Party within fifteen (15) Business Days upon receipt of an invoice from such party.   The Seller shall be responsible for the delivery of all required Transfer Notices and will send a copy of the Transfer Notice to the Master Servicer.

(c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.03, the NIMS Insurer may, at its option, withhold their consent to the transfer of a Distressed Mortgage Loan to a Special Servicer and elect to purchase such Distressed Mortgage Loan at a price equal to its Purchase Price.  Prior to such purchase, the Servicer shall be required to continue to make Monthly Advances with respect to such Distressed Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 4.03.  Any such purchase of a Distressed Mortgage Loan shall be accomplished by remittance to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account established pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Trust Agreement of the amount of the Purchase Price.  The Servicers on behalf of the Trustee shall immediately effectuate the conveyance of such Distressed Mortgage Loan to the NIMS Insurer to the extent necessary, including the prompt delivery of all Servicing Files and other related documentation to the NIMS Insurer.

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 9.01.

Successor to the Servicer.

Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02(a)(ii), the Master Servicer shall (i) within 90 days of the Servicer’s receipt of notice of such termination, succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement (except that the Master Servicer shall immediately assume all of the obligations of the Servicer to make Monthly Advances), or (ii) appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement.   ;Any successor to the Servicer shall be subject to the approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer to the extent required by the Trust Agreement, shall be a member in good standing of the MERS system.  The final approval of a successor servicer shall be conditioned upon the receipt by the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller of a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities.  In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree, provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of the Servicing Fee permitted under this Agreement.  In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned sections, 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 sections shall not become effective until a successor servicer shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 9.01, or until the Master Servicer succeeds to and assumes all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations pursuant to this Section 9.01, and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Section 6.01 and the remedies available to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller under Section 6.02 and 6.03, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 6.01, 6.02 and 6.03 shall be applicable not only to such successor servicer but also to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Master Servicer, in its capacity as successor servicer, shall not be responsible for the lack of information and/or documents that it cannot obtain through reasonable efforts.

Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than 30 days after the appointment of a successor entity and after due notification to the Servicer, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer of the Mortgage Notes and related documents, and the Assignments of Mortgage.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Seller, and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the successor servicer, including witho ut limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Servicer to the Trust Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.  All costs and fees incurred by the Servicer arising from the aforementioned process in connection with any termination pursuant to Section 8.02(a)(ii) or (iii) shall be reimbursed by the Seller within fifteen (15) Business Days following receipt of an invoice from the Servicer.

Any successor servicer appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 (including a representation that the successor servicer is a member of MERS, unless none of the Mortgage Loans are MERS Mortgage Loans or MERS Eligible Mortgage Loans or any such Mortgage Loans have been withdrawn from MERS and Assignments of Mortgage are recorded in favor of the Trustee) and provide for the same remedies set forth in Section 6.02 and Section 6.03 herein (ii) an assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the Servicer under this Agreement, whereupon such successor servicer 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 termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02 shall not affect any claims that the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer arising out of the Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such termination or resignation.  In addition, in the event any successor servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 8.03 of this Agreement, such successor servicer must satisfy the conditions relating to the transfer of servicing set forth in the Trust Agreement.

The Servicer shall deliver promptly to the successor servicer the funds in the Trust Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Mortgage Loan documents 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.

Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, the Servicer shall notify the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Seller and the Depositor of such appointment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.03.

Definition.  For the purpose of this Agreement, the term “Confidential Information” shall mean any information (including but not limited to , financial and business information relating to the Servicer’s business or affairs, including but not limited to, products and services, and those in development, and accompanying marketing plans and business strategies, now known or in possession of, or hereafter learned or acquired, by the Servicer (the “Disclosing Party”), or any third party’s information in the Servicer’s possession which is subject to an obligation on the part of the Servicer to maintain the confidentiality of such information, including without limitation, “non-public personal information” (as defined in the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (the “GLB Act”) and in its enabling regulations issued by the Federal Trade Commission) of customers and customers of the Servicer.

(b)

For purposes of this Agreement, Confidential Information shall not include information that:  (i) is or has become publicly known other than as a result of disclosure by the Seller or the Master Servicer (each a “Receiving Party”) in violation of this Agreement; (ii) is received by or available to a Receiving Party properly and lawfully from a third party without restriction on disclosure and without knowledge or reasonable suspicion that the third party’s disclosure is in breach of any obligations to Servicer or anyone else; (iii) has been developed by the Receiving Party completely independent and without the use of any Confidential Information; (iv) has been approved for public release by prior written authorization from the Servicer; or (v) is required to be disclosed by a governmental authority or related governmental agency or is otherwise req uired to be disclosed by law.  For purposes of clause (iv) above, Servicer hereby authorizes without the requirement of the Receiving Parties obtaining from the Servicer any separate or additional prior written authorization, the disclosure of any information relative to the Servicer or the Mortgage Loans by a Receiving Party or its Representatives (as defined below) which is reasonably required to be disclosed, in the normal course of secondary market transactions, to successor purchasers of the Mortgage Loans from the Receiving Parties, to rating agencies, mortgage insurance companies and related financial guaranty insurer of any related mortgage pass-through securities.

Each Receiving Party agrees that:

1.

It shall abide by and respect the Disclosing Party’s rights of any nature (including without limitation obligations imposed upon the Disclosing Party to protect the rights of third parties) in the Confidential Information (including but not limited to, patents, copyrights and trade secrets) and shall maintain and preserve the confidentiality of such information, including but without limitation, taking such steps to protect and preserve the confidentiality of the Confidential Information as it takes to preserve and protect the confidentiality of its own proprietary and confidential information.

2.

Subject

“Full-File” Reporting to Credit Repositories




Part IV, Section 107, of the servicing Guide currently requires servicers to report only 90-day delinquencies to the four major credit repositories.  To ensure that the repositories have up-to-date information for both servicing and origination activity, we have decided to begin requiring -- as of the month ending March 31, 1996 -- servicers to provide the credit repositories a “full-file” status report for the mortgages they service for us.

“Full-file” reporting requires that servicers submit a monthly report to each of the credit repositories to describe the exact status for each mortgage they service for us.  The status reported generally should be the one in effect as of the last business day of each month.  Servicers may, however, use a slightly later cut-off date -- for example, at the and of the first week of a month -- to assure• that payment corrections, returned checks, and other adjustments related to the previous month’s activity can be appropriately reflected in their report for that month.  Statuses that must be reported for any given mortgage include the following: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, and charged-off.  (The credit repositories will provide the applicable codes for reporting these statuses to them.)  A listing of each of th e major repositories to which “full-file” status reports must be sent is attached.


Servicers are responsible for the complete and accurate reporting of mortgage status information to the repositories and for resolving any disputes that arise about the information they report.  Servicers must respond promptly to any inquiries from borrowers regarding specific mortgage status information about them that was reported to the credit repositories.


Servicers should contact their Customer Account Team in their lead Fannie Mae regional office if they have any questions about this expanded reporting requirement.

THIS SECURITIZATION SERVICING AGREEMENT (this “Agreement”), entered into as of the 1st day of August, 2004, by and among LEHMAN BROTHERS HOLDINGS INC., a Delaware Corporation (“LBH” or the “Seller”), OCWEN FEDERAL BANK FSB, a federally chartered savings bank (the “Servicer”), AURORA LOAN SERVICES INC., as Master Servicer (the “Master Servicer”), and acknowledged by LASALLE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as trustee (the “Trustee”) under the Trust Agreement (as defined herein, with a copy attached hereto as Exhibit E), recites and provides as follows:

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Servicer and Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB, a federal savings bank (the “Bank”) are parties to various flow servicing agreements (collectively, the “Bank Flow Servicing Agreements”), pursuant to which the Servicer services certain residential, fixed and adjustable rate, first and junior lien mortgage loans for the Bank (the “Bank Mortgage Loans”);

WHEREAS, the Servicer and LBH are parties to various flow servicing agreements (collectively, the “LBH Flow Servicing Agreements,” and together with the Bank Flow Servicing Agreements, the “Flow Servicing Agreements”), pursuant to which the Servicer services certain residential, fixed and adjustable rate, first and junior lien mortgage loans for LBH (the “LBH Mortgage Loans”);

WHEREAS, at or prior to the Closing Date (as defined herein) the Bank and LBH shall enter into an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2004 (the “Assignment and Assumption Agreement”), pursuant to which the Bank shall assign all of its rights, title and interest with respect to certain of the Bank Mortgage Loans acquired under the Bank Flow Servicing Agreements and identified in Exhibit A hereto to LBH and LBH shall assume all of the rights and obligations of the Bank with respect to such Bank Mortgage Loans (such Bank Mortgage Loans, together with certain LBH Mortgage Loans identified on Exhibit A hereto are collectively referred to as the “Mortgage Loans”);

WHEREAS, the Seller has conveyed the Mortgage Loans on a servicing-retained basis to Structured Asset Securities Corporation (the “Depositor”), which in turn has conveyed the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee under a trust agreement dated as of August 1, 2004 (the “Trust Agreement”), among the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as securities administrator (the “Securities Administrator”), and The Murrayhill Company, as Credit Risk Manager (the “Credit Risk Manager”);

WHEREAS, from time to time certain other of the mortgage loans conveyed by the Depositor to the Trustee under the Trust Agreement on the Closing Date and serviced by other servicers may subsequent to the Closing Date be transferred to the Servicer for servicing under this Agreement, at which date Exhibit A hereto will be amended to include such mortgage loans which will then be considered “Mortgage Loans” under this Agreement;

WHEREAS, from and after the Closing Date, the Seller and the Trustee desire that the Servicer service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement, and the Servicer has agreed to do so, subject to the right of the Seller with respect to its related Mortgage Loans to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder at any time as provided herein;

WHEREAS, the Master Servicer shall be obligated under the Trust Agreement, among other things, to supervise the servicing of the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trustee, and shall have the right, under certain circumstances, to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Servicing Agreement upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default as provided herein;

WHEREAS, multiple classes of certificates (the “Certificates”), including the Class P and the Class X Certificates, will be issued on the Closing Date pursuant to the Trust Agreement and Lehman Brothers Inc. or a nominee thereof is expected to be the initial registered holder of the Class P and Class X Certificates;

WHEREAS, subsequent to the Closing Date, Lehman Brothers Inc. intends to convey all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Class P and the Class X Certificates and all payments and all other proceeds received thereunder to an owner trust or special purpose entity in which it will hold the sole equity interest, and which owner trust or special purpose entity will issue net interest margin securities (“NIM Securities”) through an indenture trust, such NIM Securities secured, in part, by the payments on such Certificates (the “NIMS Transaction”);

WHEREAS, one or more insurers (collectively, the “NIMS Insurer”) may each issue one or more insurance policies guaranteeing certain payments under the NIM Securities to be issued pursuant to the indenture in the NIMS Transaction;

WHEREAS, in the event there may be two or more individual insurers it is intended that the rights extended to the NIMS Insurer pursuant to this Agreement be allocated among two or more individual insurers that issue insurance policies in connection with the NIMS Transaction through a NIMS Insurance Agreement by and among such insurers and the parties hereto;

WHEREAS, the Seller and the Servicer acknowledge and agree that the Seller will assign all of its rights and delegate all of its obligations hereunder (excluding the Seller’s rights to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder and the Seller’s obligations pursuant to (i) the second paragraph of Section 8.03, (ii) the last paragraph of Section 8.03, (iii) Sections 8.04(a) and 8.04(b) and (iv) Section 9.02, all of which rights and obligations will remain with the Seller or be delegated or assigned by the Master Servicer) to the Trustee, and that each reference herein to the Seller is intended, unless otherwise specified, to mean the Seller or the Trustee (or the Master Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund), as assignee, whichever is the owner of the Mortgage Loans from time to time;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Servicer hereby agree as follows:

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 waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the Trust Fund; provided, however, that unless the Servicer has obtained the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, defer or forgive the payment of principal or interest, reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except for actual payments of principal) or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan.  In the event of any such m odification which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments on any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment has been deferred, make a Monthly Advance in accordance with Section 4.03, in an amount equal to the difference between (a) such month’s principal and one month’s interest at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate on the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (b) the amount paid by the Mortgagor.  The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for such advances to the same extent as for all other advances pursuant to Section 3.04.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered, to execute and deliver on behalf of itself and the Trustee, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect t o the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties.  Upon the reasonable request of the Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents, furnished to it by the Servicer and reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement; provided that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such powers of attorney.  Promptly after the execution of any assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall forward to the Master Servicer copies of any documents evidencing such assumption, modification, consolidation or extension.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Servicer shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would cause any REMIC created under the Trust Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the Code.

The Servicer shall not without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceedings solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Servicer’s, representative capacity or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and which actually does cause, the Trustee to be registered to do business in any state.  The Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for any and all costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the negligent or willful misuse of such powers of attorney by the Servicer.

In servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall employ procedures (including collection procedures) and exercise the same care that it would employ and exercise in servicing and administering mortgage loans for its own account, giving due consideration to Accepted Servicing Practices where such practices do not conflict with the requirements of this Agreement.

Section 3.02.

Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.  

Continuously from the Closing Date or Servicing Transfer Date, as applicable, until the date each Mortgage Loan ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the Servicer shall proceed diligently to collect all payments due under each of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall become due and payable and shall take special care in ascertaining and estimating Escrow Payments and all other charges that will become due and payable with respect to the Mortgage Loans and each related Mortgaged Property, 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.  The Servicer shall also apply payments of interest and principal against any Simple Interest Mortgage Loans using the Simple Interest Method.

Section 3.03.

Establishment of and Deposits to Custodial Account.  

The Servicer shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to the Mortgage Loans separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts, titled “Ocwen Federal Bank FSB in trust for LaSalle Bank National Association, as Trustee for the Structured Asset Investment Loan Trust, 2004-8.”  The Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Deposit Account established with an Eligible Institution.  Any funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be invested in Eligible Investments subject to the provisions of Section 3.09 hereof.  Funds deposited in the Custodial Account may be drawn on by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.04.  The creation of any Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement i n the form of Exhibit B hereto.  A copy of such certification or letter agreement shall be furnished to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.

The Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account on a daily basis on or prior to the second Business Day following receipt thereof, and retain therein, the following collections received by the Servicer and payments made by the Servicer after the Cut-Off Date (other than scheduled payments of principal and interest due on or before the Cut-Off Date) or the Servicing Transfer Date, as applicable:

The foregoing requirements for deposit into the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of the Servicing Fee and Ancillary Income need not be deposited by the Servicer into the Custodial Account.  Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Custodial Account by the depository institution shall accrue to the benefit of the Servicer and the Servicer shall be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.04.  Additionally, any other benefit derived from the Custodial Account associated with the receipt, disbursement and accumulation of principal, interest, taxes, hazard insurance, mortgage insurance, etc. shall accrue to the Servicer.

Section 3.06.

Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account.  

Withdrawals from the Escrow Account or Accounts may be made by the Servicer only:

(i)

to effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, mortgage insurance premiums, condominium charges, fire and hazard insurance premiums or other items constituting Escrow Payments for the related Mortgage;

Section 3.08.

[Reserved.]

Section 3.09.

Protection of Accounts.  

The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account to a different Eligible Institution from time to time; provided that in the event the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account is held in a depository institution or trust company that ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer shall transfer such Custodial Account or Escrow Account, as the case may be, to an Eligible Institution.  Such transfer shall be made only upon obtaining the consent of the NIMS Insurer, which consent shall not be withheld unreasonably, and the Servicer shall give notice to the Master Servicer of any change in the location of the Custodial Account.The Servicer shall bear any expenses, losses or damages sustained by the Master Servicer or the Trustee if the Custodial Account and/or the Escrow Account are not demand deposit accounts.

Amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Eligible Investments.  Any such Eligible Investment shall mature no later than one day prior to the Remittance Date in each month; provided, however, that if such Eligible Investment is an obligation of an Eligible Institution (other than the Servicer) that maintains the Custodial Account, then such Eligible Investment may mature on the related Remittance Date.  Any such Eligible Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Trustee.  All income on or gain realized from any such Eligible Investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer.  Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, by the Servicer out o f its own funds immediately as realized.  If, at any time, the amount on deposit in the Custodial Account exceeds the amount of the applicable FDIC insurance, such excess above the amount of the applicable FDIC insurance shall be invested in Eligible Investments.

Amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account and the Escrow Account may at the option of the Servicer be invested in Eligible Investments; provided that in the event that amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account exceed the amount fully insured by the FDIC (the “Insured Amount”), the Servicer shall be obligated to invest the excess amount over the Insured Amount in Eligible Investments on the same Business Day as such excess amount becomes present in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account.  Any such Eligible Investment shall mature no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the related Remittance Date.  Any such Eligible Investment shall be made in the name of the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Trustee.  All income on or gain realized from any such Eligible Investment shall be for the benefi t of the Servicer and may be withdrawn at any time by the Servicer.  Any losses incurred in respect of any such investment shall be deposited in the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account by the Servicer out of its own funds immediately as realized.

Section 3.10.

Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer acceptable under Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac guidelines against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the replacement value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (b) an amount such that the proceeds thereof shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor or the loss payee from becoming a co-insurer.

If upon origination of the Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgaged Property was located in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood 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 with a generally acceptable insurance carrier rated A:VI or better in the current edition of Best’s Key Rating Guide in an amount representing coverage equal to the lesser of (i) the minimum amount required, under the terms of coverage, to compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement cost basis (or the unpaid balance of the mortgage if replacement cost coverage is not available for the type of building insured) and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the Fl ood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. If at any time during the term of the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer determines in accordance with applicable law and pursuant to the Fannie Mae Guides that a Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area and is not covered by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than the amount required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Servicer shall notify the related Mortgagor that the Mortgagor must obtain such flood insurance coverage, and if said Mortgagor fails to obtain the required flood insurance coverage within thirty (30) days after such notification, the Servicer shall immediately force place the required flood insurance on the Mortgagor’s behalf.

If a Mortgage is secured by a unit in a condominium project, the Servicer shall verify that the coverage required of the owner’s association, including hazard, flood, liability, and fidelity coverage, is being maintained in accordance with then current Fannie Mae requirements, and secure from the owner’s association its agreement to notify the Servicer promptly of any change in the insurance coverage or of any condemnation or casualty loss that may have a material effect on the value of the Mortgaged Property as security.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained on each Mortgaged Property earthquake or such other or additional insurance as may be required pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance, or pursuant to the requirements of any private mortgage guaranty insurer, or as may be required to conform with Accepted Servicing Practices.

In the event that the Servicer shall determine that the Mortgaged Property should be insured against loss or damage by hazards and risks not covered by the insurance required to be maintained by the Mortgagor pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, the Servicer shall communicate and consult with the Mortgagor with respect to the need for such insurance and bring to the Mortgagor’s attention the desirability of protection of the Mortgaged Property.

All policies required hereunder shall name the Servicer as loss payee and shall be endorsed with standard or union mortgagee clauses, without contribution, which shall provide for at least 30 days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in amount or material change in coverage.

The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Servicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies are rated A:VI or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide and are licensed to do business in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located.  The Servicer shall determine that such policies provide sufficient risk coverage and amounts, that they insure the property owner, and that they properly describe the property address.  The Servicer shall furnish to the Mortgagor a formal notice of expiration of any such insurance in sufficient time for the Mortgagor to arrange for renewal coverage by the expiration date.

Pursuant to Section 3.04, 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 related Mortgaged Property, or property acquired in liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or to be released to the Mortgagor, in accordance with the Servicer’s normal servicing procedures as specified in Section 3.14) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.06.

Section 3.11.

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 3.10 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 3.10, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 3.10.  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 3.05.  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 3.10, 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 deposited from the Servicer’s funds, without reimbursement therefor.  Upon request of the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to such party 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 Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer.

Section 3.12.

Maintenance of Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Servicer shall maintain with responsible companies, 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 (“Servicer Employees”).  Any such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker’s Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of such Servicer Employees.  Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy also shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without hav ing obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby.  No provision of this Section 3.12 requiring such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement.  The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the corresponding amounts required by the Fannie Mae Guides or by Freddie Mac in the Freddie Mac Sellers’ & Servicers’ Guide.  Upon the request of the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to such party a certified true copy of such fidelity bond and insurance policy and a statement from the surety and the insurer that such fidelity bond and insurance policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer.

Section 3.13.

Inspections.

The Servicer shall inspect the Mortgaged Property as often as deemed necessary by the Servicer in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices to assure itself that the value of the Mortgaged Property is being preserved.  In addition, if any Mortgage Loan is more than 60 days delinquent, the Servicer immediately shall inspect the Mortgaged Property and shall conduct subsequent inspections in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices or as may be required by the primary mortgage guaranty insurer.  The Servicer shall keep a written report of each such inspection.

Section 3.14.

Restoration of Mortgaged Property.

The Servicer need not obtain the approval of the Master Servicer or the Trustee prior to releasing any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the Mortgagor to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property if such release is in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  At a minimum, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:

(i)

the Servicer shall receive satisfactory independent verification of completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;

(ii)

the Servicer shall take all steps necessary to preserve the priority of the lien of the Mortgage, including, but not limited to requiring waivers with respect to mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens;

(iii)

the Servicer shall verify that the Mortgage Loan is not sixty (60) or more days delinquent; and

(iv)

(c)

In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Trustee, claims to the Qualified Insurer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such PMI Policy or LPMI Policy and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan.  Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy shall be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(xiv), subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.04.

(e)

The Servicer shall deposit into the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(v) hereof all Insurance Proceeds received under the terms of a PMI Policy or an LPMI Policy.  

(f)

Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) and (b) above, the Servicer shall not take any action in regard to any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy inconsistent with the interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders or with the rights and interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders under this Agreement.

Section 3.16.

Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

In the event that title to any 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 Trustee or its nominee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, or in the event the Trustee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer (with a copy delivered to the Trustee) from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the Trustee.

The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.  The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall 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.  The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.

If the Servicer hereafter becomes aware that a Mortgaged Property is an Environmental Problem Property, the Servicer will notify the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of the existence of the Environmental Problem Property.  Additionally, the Servicer shall set forth in such notice a description of such problem, a recommendation to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer relating to the proposed action regarding the Environmental Problem Property, and the Servicer shall carry out the recommendation set forth in such notice unless otherwise directed by the NIMS Insurer in writing within five (5) days after its receipt (or deemed receipt) of such notice in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 9.04 below.  The Master Servicer shall be provided a copy of the NIMS Insurer’s instructions to the Servicer.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, th e Servicer shall obtain the Master Servicer's and the NIMS Insurer's written consent to any expenditures proposed to remediate Environmental Problem Properties or to defend any claims associated with Environmental Problem Properties if such expenses, in the aggregate, are expected to exceed $100,000.  Failure to provide written notice of disapproval of the expenditure within five (5) days of receipt (or deemed receipt) of such request for prepaid expenditures shall be deemed an approval of such expenditure.  The Master Servicer shall be provided with a copy of the NIMS Insurer’s instructions to the Servicer.  If the Servicer has received reliable instructions to the effect that a Property is an Environmental Problem Property (e.g., Servicer obtains a broker's price opinion which reveals the potential for such problem), the Servicer will not accept a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure upon any such Property without first obtaining a preliminary environmental investigation for the Property satisfa ctory to the NIMS Insurer.

In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service (and provide a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer) to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC.  If the Servicer has received such an extension (and provided a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer), then the Servicer shall co ntinue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”).  If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value, as acceptable to the NIMS Insurer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, a s the case may be.  The Trustee shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such grant of extension.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would:  (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in 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.

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 or Section 4.03.

The Servicer shall make advances of all funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to Section 3.10, such advances to be reimbursed from the disposition or liquidation proceeds of the REO Property.  The Servicer shall make monthly distributions on each Remittance Date to the Master Servicer of the net cash flow from the REO Property (which shall equal the revenues from such REO Property net of the expenses described in this Section 3.16 and of any reserves reasonably required from time to time to be maintained to satisfy anticipated liabilities for such expenses).

Section 3.17.

Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 4.02, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager and the NIMS Insurer on or before the Remittance Date in each month a statement with respect to any REO Property covering the operation of such REO Property for the previous month and, if requested, the Servicer’s efforts in connection with the sale of such REO Property and any rental of such REO Property incidental to the sale thereof for the previous month. That statement shall be accompanied by such other information as either the Master Servicer, the Credit Risk Manager or the NIMS Insurer shall reasonably request.

Section 3.18.

Liquidation Reports.

Upon the foreclosure sale of any Mortgaged Property or the acquisition thereof by the Trustee pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer shall submit to the Master Servicer a liquidation report with respect to such Mortgaged Property.

Section 3.19.

Reports of Foreclosures and Abandonments of Mortgaged Property.

Following the foreclosure sale or abandonment of any Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall report such foreclosure or abandonment as required pursuant to Section 6050J of the Code.

Section 3.20.

Prepayment Charges.

Except as provided below, the Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge with respect to any Mortgage Loan.  If the Servicer or its designee fails to collect a Prepayment Charge at the time of the related prepayment of any Mortgage Loan subject to such Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall pay to the Master Servicer at such time (by deposit to the Custodial Account) an amount equal to the amount of the Prepayment Charge not collected; provided, however, that with respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the original or a copy of the Mortgage Note is not in the Servicer's possession (after the Servicer has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Mortgage Note from the related Custodian), the Servicer shall not have any obligation to pay the amount of any uncollected Prepayment Charge under this Section 3.20 if th e failure to collect such amount is the result of inaccurate or incomplete information regarding Prepayment Charges included on the Mortgage Loan Schedule relating to the related Mortgage Loan.  With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the original or a copy of the Mortgage Note is not in the Servicer's possession (after the Servicer has used commercially reasonable efforts to obtain the Mortgage Note from the related Custodian), the Servicer may rely on the Prepayment Charge data set forth on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule and the Servicer shall not have any liability for any loss resulting from the Servicer's calculation of the Prepayment Charge utilizing the data contained in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule.  Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or its designee may waive (and shall waive, in the case of (ii)(c) below) a Prepayment Charge without paying to the Master Servicer the amount of such Prepayment Charge only if such Prepayment Charge (i) relates to a defaulted Mortgage Loa n (defined as 61 days or more delinquent), and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds from the Mortgage Loan, taking into account the amount of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, or (ii) if the prepayment is not a result of a refinance by the Servicer or any of its affiliates and (a) a default under the Mortgage Loan is reasonably foreseeable and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such a prepayment charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (b) the collection of the Prepayment Charge would be in violation of applicable laws or (c) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, any Prepayment Charge in any instance when a Mortgage Loan is in foreclosure.

Section 3.21.

Advance Facility.

(a)

With the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer is hereby authorized to enter into a financing or other facility (any such arrangement, an “Advance Facility”) under which (1) the Servicer assigns or pledges to another Person (together with such Person’s successors and assigns, an “Advancing Person”) the Servicer’s rights under this Agreement to be reimbursed for any Monthly Advances or Servicing Advances and/or (2) an Advancing Person agrees to fund some or all Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances required to be made by the Servicer pursuant to this Agreement. No consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Certificateholders or any other party is required before the Servicer may enter into an Advance Facility; provided, however, at least 30 days prior to entering such Advance Facility, the Serv icer must provide written notification to Moody’s Investors’ Service Inc. that it intends to enter into such Advance Facility.  Notwithstanding the existence of any Advance Facility under which an Advancing Person agrees to fund Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances on the Servicer’s behalf, the Servicer shall remain obligated pursuant to this Agreement to make Monthly Advances and Servicing Advances pursuant to and as required by this Agreement.  If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, and for so long as an Advancing Person remains entitled to receive reimbursement for any Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement, then the Servicer shall not be permitted to reimburse itself for Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances, but instead the Servicer shall be required to remit amounts collected that would otherwise be retained by the Servicer to reimburse it for previously unreimbursed Monthly Advances (“Monthly Advance Reim bursement Amounts”) and/or previously unreimbursed Servicing Advances (“Servicing Advance Reimbursement Amounts” and together with Monthly Advance Reimbursement Amounts, “Reimbursement Amounts”) (in each case to the extent such type of Reimbursement Amount is included in the Advance Facility) in accordance with the documentation establishing the Advance Facility to such Advancing Person or to a trustee, agent or custodian (an “Advance Facility Trustee”) designated by such Advancing Person.  Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, in no event shall Monthly Advance Reimbursement Amounts or Servicing Advance Reimbursement Amounts be included in the “Available Distribution Amount” or distributed to Certificateholders.

If the Servicer enters into an Advance Facility, the Servicer and the related Advancing Person shall deliver to the Trustee a written notice of the existence of such Advance Facility (an “Advance Facility Notice”), stating the identity of the Advancing Person and any related Advance Facility Trustee.  An Advance Facility Notice may only be terminated by the joint written direction of the Servicer and the related Advancing Person as described in Section 3.21(h) below.

(b)

Reimbursement Amounts shall consist solely of amounts in respect of Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances made with respect to the Mortgage Loans for which the Servicer would be permitted to reimburse itself in accordance with this Agreement, assuming the Servicer had made the related Monthly Advance(s) and/or Servicing Advance(s).  Notwithstanding the foregoing, no Person shall be entitled to reimbursement from funds held in the Custodial Account for future distribution to Certificateholders pursuant to this Agreement.  None of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer shall have any duty or liability with respect to the calculation of any Reimbursement Amount, nor shall the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer have any responsibility to track or monitor the administration of the Advance Facility or the payment of Reimbursement Amo unts to the related Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee.  The Servicer shall maintain and provide to any successor Servicer and (upon request) the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer a detailed accounting on a loan by loan basis as to amounts advanced by, pledged or assigned to, and reimbursed to any Advancing Person.  The successor Servicer shall be entitled to rely on any such information provided by the predecessor Servicer, and the successor Servicer shall not be liable for any errors in such information.

(c)

An Advancing Person who receives an assignment or pledge of the rights to be reimbursed for Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances, and/or whose obligations hereunder are limited to the funding of Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances shall not be required to meet the criteria for qualification of a subservicer set forth in this Agreement.

(d)

Reimbursement Amounts distributed with respect to each Mortgage Loan shall be allocated to outstanding unreimbursed Monthly Advances or Servicing Advances (as the case may be) made with respect to that Mortgage Loan on a “first in, first out” (FIFO) basis.  The Servicer shall provide to the related Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee loan by loan information with respect to each Reimbursement Amount distributed to such Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee on each Distribution Date, to enable the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee to make the FIFO allocation of each Reimbursement Amount with respect to each Mortgage Loan.  The Servicer shall remain entitled to be reimbursed by the Advancing Person or Advance Facility Trustee for all Monthly Advances and Servicing Advances funded by the Servicer to the extent the related righ ts to be reimbursed therefor have not been assigned or pledged to an Advancing Person.

(e)

The Servicer who enters into an Advance Facility shall indemnify the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Fund and any successor resulting from any claim by the related Advancing Person, except to the extent that such claim, loss, liability or damage resulted from or arose out of negligence, recklessness or willful misconduct on the part of the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the successor Servicer.

(f)

Any amendment to this Section 3.21 or to any other provision of this Agreement that may be necessary or appropriate to effect the terms of an Advance Facility as described generally in this Section 3.21, including amendments to add provisions relating to a successor Servicer, may be entered into by the Seller, the Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Servicer without the consent of any Certificateholder, but only with the consent of the NIMS Insurer, notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or the Trust Agreement.

(g)

Any rights of set-off that the Trust Fund, the Trustee, the Depositor, any successor Servicer or any other Person might otherwise have against any Servicer under this Agreement shall not attach to any rights to be reimbursed for Monthly Advances or Servicing Advances that have been sold, transferred, pledged, conveyed or assigned to any Advancing Person.

(h)

At any time when an Advancing Person shall have ceased funding Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances (as the case may be) and the Advancing Person or related Advance Facility Trustee shall have received Reimbursement Amounts sufficient in the aggregate to reimburse all Monthly Advances and/or Servicing Advances (as the case may be) the right to reimbursement for which were assigned to the Advancing Person, then upon the delivery of a written notice signed by the Advancing Person and the related Servicer to the Trustee terminating the Advance Facility Notice (the “Notice of Facility Termination”), the Servicer shall again be entitled to withdraw and retain the related Reimbursement Amounts from the Custodial Account pursuant to the applicable Sections of this Agreement.

(i)

After delivery of any Advance Facility Notice, and until any such Advance Facility Notice has been terminated by a Notice of Facility Termination, this Section 3.21 may not be amended or otherwise modified without the prior written consent of the related Advancing Person.

Section 3.22.

Credit Reporting.

For each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall accurately and fully furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information (e.g., favorable and unfavorable) on its borrower credit files to each of the following credit repositories:  Equifax Credit Information Services, Inc., Trans Union, LLC and Experian Information Solution, Inc., on a monthly basis.  In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced for a Fannie Mae pool, the Servicer shall transmit full credit reporting data to each of such credit repositories in accordance with Fannie Mae Guide Announcement 95-19 (November 11, 1995), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit G, reporting each of the following statuses, each month with respect to a Mortgage Loan in a Fannie Mae pool: New origination, current, delinquent (30-60-90-d ays, etc) foreclosed or charged off.

Section 3.23.

Safeguarding Customer Information.

The Servicer has implemented and will maintain security measures designed to meet the objectives of the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information published in final form on February 1, 2001, 66 Fed. Reg. 8616 and the rules promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time (the “Guidelines”).  

The Servicer shall promptly provide the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer information reasonably available to it regarding such security measures upon the reasonable request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer which information shall include, but not be limited to, any Statement on Auditing Standards (SAS) No. 70 report covering the Servicer’s operations, and any other audit reports, summaries of test results or equivalent measures taken by the Servicer with respect to its security measures to the extent reasonably necessary in order for the Owner to satisfy its obligations under the Guidelines.

Statements to Master Servicer.

Not later than the tenth (10th) calendar day of each month (or if such tenth calendar day is not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer (i) a monthly remittance advice in the format set forth in Exhibit D hereto (or in such other format mutually agreed between the Servicer and the Master Servicer) relating to the period ending on the last day of the preceding calendar month and (ii) all such information required pursuant to clause (i) above on a magnetic tape or other similar media reasonably acceptable to the Master Servicer.  Together with such monthly remittance advice, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer a report setting forth a calculation of each of the Trigger Events set forth in Section 8.03 relating to the period ending on the last da y of the preceding calendar month.  The format of this monthly reporting may be amended from time to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law.

Such monthly remittance advice shall also be accompanied with a supplemental report provided to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller which includes on an aggregate basis for the previous Due Period (i) the amount of claims filed on any LPMI Policy, (ii) the amount of any claim payments made on any LPMI Policy, (iii) the amount of claims denied or curtailed on any LPMI Policy and (iv) policies cancelled with respect to those Mortgage Loans covered by any LPMI Policy purchased by the Seller on behalf of the Trust Fund; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in a PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any supplemental reports including the foregoing data with respect to any such PMI Policy until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from the Seller to appropriately code its servicing system in accordance with such requirements.

In addition, not more than 60 days after the end of each calendar year, commencing December 31, 2004, the Servicer shall provide (as such information becomes reasonably available to the Servicer) to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer such information concerning the Mortgage Loans and annual remittances to the Master Servicer relating thereto as is necessary for the Securities Administrator to prepare the Trust Fund’s federal income tax return and for any investor in the Certificates to prepare any required tax return.  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 to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer pursuant to any requirements of the Code as from time to time are in force.  The Servicer shall also provide such info rmation reasonably available to it as may be requested by the Securities Administrator and required for the completion of any tax reporting responsibility of the Securities Administrator within such reasonable time frame as shall enable the Securities Administrator to timely file each Schedule Q (or other applicable tax report or return) required to be filed by it.

Section 4.03.

Monthly Advances by Servicer.

On the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds or from amounts held for future distribution, or both, an amount equal to all Monthly Payments (solely the portion of the Monthly Payment attributable to interest, in the case of Simple Interest Mortgage Loans) (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.  Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be replaced 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 remittances to the Master Servicer required to be made on such Remittance Date.  The Servicer shall keep appropriate records of such amounts and will provide such records to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer upon request.  

The Servicer’s obligation to make such Monthly Advances as to any Mortgage Loan will continue through the last Monthly Payment due prior to the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan, or through the last Remittance Date prior to the Remittance Date for the distribution of all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds) with respect to the related Mortgage Loan unless the Servicer deems such Monthly Advance to be a Nonrecoverable Advance, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer delivered to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.

Any payment due on a day other than the first day of each month shall be considered due on the first day of the month following the month in which that payment is due as if such payment were due on the first day of said month. For example, a payment due on January 15 shall be considered to be due on February 1.  Any payment collected on a Mortgage Loan after the Cut-Off Date shall be deposited in the Custodial Account. For Mortgage Loans with Due Dates on the first day of a month, deposits to the Custodial Account begin with the payment due on the first of the month following the Cut-Off Date.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 shall survive the engagement of the Servicer to perform the servicing responsibilities as of the related Closing Date or Servicing Transfer Date, as applicable, hereunder and the delivery of the Servicing Files to the Servicer and shall inure to the benefit of the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee.  Upon discovery by either the Servicer, the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects the ability of the Servicer to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement or otherwise materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans, the Mortgaged Property or the priority of the security interest on such Mortgaged Property or the interests of the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other.

Within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Servicer of any breach of a representation or warranty set forth in Section 6.01 which materially and adversely affects the ability of the Servicer to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement or otherwise materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans, the Mortgaged Property or the priority of the security interest on such Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall use its best efforts promptly to cure such breach in all material respects and, if such breach cannot be cured, the Servicer shall, at the Master Servicer’s option, assign the Servicer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement (or respecting the affected Mortgage Loans) to a successor servicer.  Such assignment shall be made in accordance with Sections 8.01 and 8.02.

In addition, the Servicer shall indemnify the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer and hold each of them harmless against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach of the Servicer’s representations and warranties contained in Section 6.01.

The Servicer shall indemnify the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer and hold them harmless against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses (collectively, the “Liabilities”) that the indemnified party may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including, but not limited to its obligation to provide the certification pursuant to Section 5.03(b) hereunder) or for any inaccurate or misleading information provided in the certification required pursuant to Section 5.03(b). The Servicer shall immediately notify the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee or the NIMS Ins urer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans that may result in such Liabilities, and the Servicer shall assume (with the prior written consent of the indemnified party) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or any indemnified party in respect of such claim and follow any written instructions received from the such indemnified party in connection with such claim.  The Servicer shall be reimbursed promptly from the Trust Fund for all amounts advanced by it pursuant to the preceding sentence except when the claim is in any way related to the Servicer’s indemnification pursuant to Section 6.02, or the failure of the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  In the event a dispute arises between the Servicer and an indemnified party with r espect to any of the rights and obligations of the parties pursuant to this Agreement, and such dispute is adjudicated in a court of law, by an arbitration panel or any other judicial process, then the losing party shall indemnify and reimburse the winning party for all attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses related to the adjudication of said dispute.

(b)

The Servicer and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust Fund and held harmless against any loss, liability or expense incurred in connection with any legal action relating to this Agreement or the Certificates, other than any loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of its willful misfeasance, bad faith or negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of its reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.

Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, the Servicer shall (i) agree to such modifications and enter into such amendments to this Agreement as may be necessary, in the judgment of the Depositor and its counsel, to comply with any rules promulgated by the Commission and any interpretations thereof by the staff of the Commission (collectively, “SEC Rules”) provided that the Servicer is reasonably able to comply with such revised rules and (ii) upon request, within reasonable timeframes intended to comply with the SEC Rules, provide to the Depositor for inclusion in any periodic report required to be filed under the Exchange Act such items of information regarding this Agreement relating to servicing of the Mortgage Loans and matters related to the Servicer, including as applicable (by way of example and not limitation), a description of any materi al litigation or governmental action or proceeding involving the Servicer or its affiliates (collectively, the “Servicer Information”), provided,  that such information shall be required to be provided by the Servicer only to the extent that such shall be determined by the Depositor and its counsel to be necessary to comply with any SEC Rules.  The Seller agrees to cooperate in good faith with the Servicer to negotiate the reimbursement of any material out-of-pocket fees or expenses incurred by the Servicer as a result of complying with the SEC Rules.


The Servicer hereby agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Depositor, its respective officers and directors and each person, if any, who controls the Depositor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “Act”), or Section 20 of the Exchange Act, from and against any and all losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities to which the Depositor, its respective officers or directors and any such controlling person may become subject under the Act or otherwise, as and when such losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities are incurred, insofar as such losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the Servicer Information or arise out of, or are based upon, the omission or alleged omission to state therein any material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, and will reimburse the Depositor, its respective officers and directors and any such controlling person for any legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by it or any of them in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, expense, damage, liability or action, as and when incurred; provided, however, that the Servicer shall be liable only insofar as such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or alleged omission relates solely to the information in the Servicer Information furnished to the Depositor by or on behalf of the Servicer specifically in connection with this Agreement.

The NIMS Insurer may, at its option, purchase a Distressed Mortgage Loan; provided, however, prior to any such purchase, the Servicer shall be required to continue to make Monthly Advances with respect to such Distressed Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 4.03 unless it has deemed such Monthly Advances to be a Nonrecoverable Advance.  Any such purchase shall be accomplished by remittance to the Master Servicer of the Purchase Price for the Distressed Mortgage Loan for deposit into the Collection Account established by the Master Servicer pursuant to the Trust Agreement.  The Trustee and the Servicer shall immediately effectuate the conveyance of the purchased Distressed Mortgage Loan to the NIMS Insurer exercising the purchase option, including prompt delivery of the Servicing File and all related documentation to the applicable NIMS Insurer.

ARTICLE VII.  

THE SERVICER

Section 7.01.

Merger or Consolidation of the Servicer.  

Subject to the following paragraph, the Servicer shall keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a federal savings bank, and shall 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 Agreement or any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this Agreement.

Any Person into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Servicer, shall be the successor of the Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person shall be an institution (i) having a net worth of not less than $25,000,000, and (ii) which is a Fannie Mae- and Freddie Mac-approved servicer in good standing.

Section 7.02.

Limitation on Liability of the Servicer and Others.  

Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor or the Trustee for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in accordance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and sub mitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto.  In such event, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Fund for the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.

Section 7.03.

Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by the Servicer.

This Agreement has been entered into with the Servicer in reliance upon the independent status of the Servicer, and the representations as to the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plant, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing, and the continuance thereof.  Therefore, except as expressly provided in this Section 7.03 and Sections 3.21, 7.01 and 7.04, the Servicer shall neither assign its rights under this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer which consent, in the case of an assignment of rights or delegation of duties, shall be granted or withheld in the discretion of the Sell er, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and which consent, in the case of a sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the property or assets of the Servicer, shall not be unreasonably withheld by any of them; provided, that in each case, there must be delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing or sale or disposition of assets will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer, without the consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, may retain third party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and administration, collection service s and similar functions; provided, that the retention of such contractors by Servicer shall not limit the obligation of the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph of this Section 7.03 or any other provisions of this Agreement to the contrary, the Servicer shall have the right, subject to the succeeding sentence, to pledge and assign all of the Servicer’s right, title and interest in, to and under this Agreement to one or more lenders in order to finance the Servicer’s servicing rights hereunder, provided that such assignment shall not impair any existing rights or claims that the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor or the Trustee may have against the Servicer and (ii) the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor and the Trustee shall have no obligation or liability to the lender under any such financing arrangements.   If, as a result of a default by the Servicer under any such financing arrangement, the lenders acquire such s ervicing rights and appoint a successor Servicer under this Agreement, any such successor Servicer must meet all requirements for successor Servicers pursuant to Section 9.01.  If, pursuant to any provision hereof, the duties of the Servicer are transferred to a successor Servicer, the entire amount of the Servicing Fee and other compensation payable to the Servicer pursuant hereto shall thereafter be payable to such Servicer.

The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Servicer, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Servicer.  Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to each of them.  No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 9.01.

Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 7.03, in the event that the Servicer either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, except to the extent permitted by and in accordance with this Section 7.03 and Sections 3.21, 7.01 and 7.04, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, then such parties shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice given as set forth in Section 8.01, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Servicer or any third party.

Section 7.04.

Subservicing Agreements and Successor Subservicer.

(a)

The Servicer may enter into subservicing agreements for any servicing and administration of the  Mortgage Loans with any institution which (i) is an approved Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac Seller/Servicer as indicated in writing, (ii) which represents and warrants that it is in compliance with the laws of each state as necessary to enable it to perform its obligations under such subservicing agreement and (iii) which is acceptable to the NIMS Insurer.  For this purpose, subservicing shall not be deemed to include the use of a tax service, or services for reconveyance, insurance or brokering REO Property or the retention of third party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and administration, collection services and similar functions.  The Servicer shall give prior written notice to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of the appointment of any subservicer and shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer a copy of such subservicing agreement.  For purposes of this Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received payments on Mortgage Loans immediately upon receipt by any subservicer of such payments.  Any such subservicing agreement shall be acceptable to the NIMS Insurer and be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Agreement.  Each subservicing agreement shall provide that a successor Servicer shall have the option to terminate such agreement without payment of any fees if the predecessor Servicer is terminated or resigns.  

(b)

The Servicer, with the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, may terminate any subservicing agreement to which it is a party in accordance with the terms and conditions of such subservicing agreement and either itself directly service the related Mortgage Loans or enter into a subservicing agreement with a successor subservicer that qualifies under Section 7.04(a).

(c)

Notwithstanding any subservicing agreement or the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a subservicer or reference to actions taken through a subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall remain obligated and primarily liable to the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Certificateholders for servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the provisions hereof without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such subservicing agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans.  The Servicer shall be entitled to enter into any agreement with a subservicer for indemnification of the Servicer by such subservicer and nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification.

Section 7.05.

Inspection.  

The Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, upon reasonable advance notice, during normal business hours, access to all records maintained by the Servicer in respect of its rights and obligations hereunder and access to officers of the Servicer responsible for such obligations.  Upon request, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer its most recent publicly available financial statements and such other information relating to its capacity to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

ARTICLE VIII.

(ii)

failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of 30 days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer; or

(iii)

failure by the Servicer to maintain its license to do business or service residential mortgage loans in any jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Properties are located; or

(iv)

(v)

the Servicer shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Servicer or of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

(vi)

the Servicer shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency, bankruptcy or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations or cease its normal business operations for three Business Days; or

(vii)

the Servicer ceases to meet the qualifications of a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac lender/servicer; or

(viii)

the Servicer attempts to assign the servicing of the Mortgage Loans or its right to servicing compensation hereunder or the Servicer attempts to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets or to assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or to delegate its duties hereunder in a manner not permitted under this Agreement; or

In each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied within the applicable cure period, in addition to whatever rights, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer may have at law or equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer, by notice in writing to the Servicer, may terminate all the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the servicing contract established hereby and the proceeds thereof.

Upon receipt by the Servicer of such written notice, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in a successor servicer appointed by the Master Servicer, as the case may be, with the consent of the other party and the NIMS Insurer.  Upon written request from the Master Servicer, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity designated by the Master Servicer any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, at the Servicer’s sole exp ense.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

Notwithstanding the first through third paragraphs of this Section 8.01(a) or the first and second paragraphs of Section 8.03, upon a termination and removal of the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.01 or Section 8.03, the Master Servicer, in coordination with the Seller, agrees to use commercially reasonable efforts to sell the servicing rights with respect to the Mortgage Loans to a third party servicer of subprime mortgage loans that is acceptable to the Master Servicer and the Seller, in their reasonable discretion, provided that (i) such transfer of servicing rights to such successor Servicer otherwise meets the requirements of Section 9.01 hereof and (ii) the Master Servicer employs commercially reasonable efforts to maximize the net proceeds of such sale.  Upon such sale and transfer and compliance by the Servicer with all of its obligations under this Agreemen t, the Master Servicer shall remit to the Servicer the net sale proceeds actually received with respect to any such sale, net of any costs and expenses that are incurred by the Master Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee or the Trust Fund in connection with such sale, the termination of the Servicer under this Section 8.01 or Section 8.03 hereof, and the transfer of servicing contemplated hereby, and any other amounts that may be due and owing from the Servicer  to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the Trust Fund pursuant to this Agreement; provided, however, that overhead, labor and other indirect costs of the successor servicer incurred in connection with such transfer of servicing shall not be offset against the net sale proceeds of such sale.  Notwithstanding any provision of this Agreement to the contrary, the Master Servicer shall remit to the Servicer the Net Sale Proceeds referred to above no later than 14 days following the receipt of such proceeds from the purchaser of t he servicing rights.  All reasonable and customary costs and expenses incurred by the Master Servicer, the Seller, the Trustee or the Trust Fund in connection with the transfer of servicing contemplated hereby shall, if not netted from the proceeds of the sale of the servicing rights in accordance with the preceding sentence, be paid by the Servicer.

(b)

By a written notice to the Servicer, the Master Servicer with the consent of the other parties and the NIMS Insurer may waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences.  Upon any waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this 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.

Section 8.02.

This Agreement shall terminate upon: (i) the later of (a) the distribution of the final payment or liquidation proceeds on the last Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer (or advances by the Servicer for the same), and (b) the disposition of all REO Property acquired upon foreclosure of the last Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder, or (ii) mutual consent of the Servicer, the Seller and the Master Servicer in writing provided such termination is also acceptable to the Rating Agencies and the NIMS Insurer or (iii) with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans, at the sole option of the Seller, without cause, upon 30 days written notice, subject to the limitations set forth below.  Any such notice of termination shall be in writing and delivered to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Servicer by registered mail to the address set fo rth in Section 9.04 of this Agreement.  The Servicer shall comply with the termination procedures set forth in Sections 8.01, 8.02 and 9.01 hereof.  The Master Servicer or the Trustee shall have no right to terminate the Servicer pursuant to Section 8.02.

In the event the Seller terminates the Servicer without cause with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with Section 8.02(iii), (x) the Seller shall be required to pay to the Servicer a Termination Fee in an amount equal to the product of the Termination Fee Rate and the outstanding principal balance of the terminated Mortgage Loans as of the date of such termination; provided, that no Termination Fee shall be paid or payable with respect to the unpaid principal balance of any terminated Distressed Mortgage Loan and (y) the Master Servicer or a successor servicer shall reimburse the Servicer for all accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees and unreimbursed Servicing Advances upon the transfer of servicing to such successor servicer.

Section 8.03.

If, as of any date of determination, any of the following circumstances shall exist with respect to the Mortgage Loans (each, a “Trigger Event”), subject to the prior written consent of the NIMS Insurer, the Master Servicer and the Seller shall have the right, by notice in writing to the Servicer, to terminate all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Agreement:

as of any date, the “Realized Losses” for the Mortgage Loans for the then most recent twelve month period exceeds 1.50% of the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loans as of the beginning of such twelve (12) month period.  As used herein, with respect to any liquidated Mortgage Loan, the related “Realized Loss” is amount equal to (i) the unpaid principal balance of the related liquidated Mortgage Loan as of the date of liquidation, minus (ii) Liquidation Proceeds received, to the extent allocable to principal, net of amounts that are reimbursable therefrom to the Servicer with respect to such Mortgage Loan including expenses of liquidation; or

(iii)

the cumulative Realized Losses for the Mortgage Loans, calculated as a percentage of the Cut-Off Date principal balance of the Mortgage Loans exceeds the percentage set forth in the first column below at any time during the corresponding period from the Closing Date set forth in the second column below:

Upon receipt by the Servicer of a written termination notice pursuant to this Section 8.03, all authority and power of the Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise, shall pass to and be vested in a successor servicer appointed by the Master Servicer, with the consent of the Seller and the NIMS Insurer.  Upon written request from the Master Servicer, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the Mortgage Loans and related documents, at the Servicer’s sole expense.  The Serv icer shall cooperate with the Master Servicer, the Seller, the NIMS Insurer, the Trustee and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder, 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

By a written notice the Master Servicer, with the consent of the Seller and the NIMS Insurer may waive any Trigger Event hereunder and its consequences.  Upon any waiver of a Trigger Event in any period, such event shall cease to exist for such period.  No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or Trigger Event or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

No Termination Fee shall be payable to the Servicer upon a termination pursuant to this Section 8.03.

In the event that a Seller intends to transfer the servicing of Mortgage Loans which have become Distressed Mortgage Loans to a Special Servicer for servicing pursuant to Section 8.04, then the Servicer and the Seller agree to renegotiate the Trigger Events in a manner reasonably acceptable to both parties prior to effecting any such transfer.  Renegotiation of the Trigger Events will not require the consent of Certificateholders or any other party so long as the Seller have obtained written confirmation from the applicable Rating Agencies rating the Certificates that such renegotiated Trigger Events will not cause a qualification, reduction or withdrawal of the current ratings assigned to the Certificates by such Rating Agencies.

Section 8.04.

Termination for Distressed Mortgage Loans.  

(a)

Subject to the requirements set forth in this Section 8.04, the Master Servicer may terminate this Agreement with the prior consent of the NIMS Insurer and the Seller, with respect to the servicing of those Mortgage Loans that are determined to be Distressed Mortgage Loans and in such event servicing of such Mortgage Loans shall be transferred to the Special Servicer.  The appointment of a Special Servicer by the Master Servicer and the execution of a special servicing agreement between the Master Servicer and the Special Servicer shall be subject to the consent of the Seller and the NIMS Insurer and the receipt of confirmati on from the Rating Agencies that the transfer of servicing to the Special Servicer shall not result in a reduction of any rating previously given by such Rating Agency to any Certificate or the NIM Securities.  Any monthly fee paid to the Special Servicer in connection with any Mortgage Loan serviced by such Special Servicer shall not exceed one-twelfth of the product of (a) 0.50% and (b) the outstanding principal balance of such Mortgage Loan.  All unreimbursed Servicing Fees, Servicing Advances and Monthly Advances owing to the Servicer relating to such Distressed Mortgage Loans shall be reimbursed and paid to the Servicer by the successor Special Servicer upon such transfer to the Special Servicer.

(b)

All reasonable costs and expenses incurred in connection with a transfer of servicing to the Special Servicer including, without limitation, the costs and expenses of the Trustee or any other Person in connection with such transfer including the transfer of the Servicing Files and the other necessary data to the Special Servicer, shall be paid by the Seller from its own funds without reimbursement.   The Seller shall be responsible for the delivery of all required transfer notices and will send a copy of the transfer notice to the Trustee.

(c)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 8.04, the NIMS Insurer may, at its option, withhold their consent to the transfer of a Distressed Mortgage Loan to a Special Servicer and elect to purchase such Distressed Mortgage Loan at a price equal to its Purchase Price.  Prior to such purchase, the Servicer shall be required to continue to make Monthly Advances with respect to such Distressed Mortgage Loan pursuant to Section 4.03.  Any such purchase of a Distressed Mortgage Loan shall be accomplished by remittance to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Collection Account established pursuant to Section 4.01 of the Trust Agreement of the amount of the Purchase Price.  The Servicer on behalf of the Master Servicer shall take reasonable steps to effectuate the transfer of servicing of such Distressed Mortgage Loan to the NIMS Insurer to the e xtent necessary, including the prompt delivery of all Servicing Files and other related documentation to the NIMS Insurer or its designee.

ARTICLE IX.  

MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS

Section 9.01.

Successor to the Servicer.  

Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement (a) pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02(ii), the Master Servicer shall (i) within 90 days of the Servicer’s notice of such termination, succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement; or (b) pursuant to a termination under Section 8.02(iii) or Section 8.03, the Seller shall appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement.  Any successor to the Servicer shall be subject to the approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.  Any approval of a successor servicer by the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, shall, if the successor servicer is not at that time a servicer of other Mortgage Loans for the Trust Fund, be conditioned upon the receipt by the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Seller and the Trustee of a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree, provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer under this Agreement.  In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned sections, 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 sections shall not become effective until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 9.01 and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Sections 6.01 and the remedies available to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller under Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 6.01, 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 shall be applicable to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.  Neither the Master Servicer, in its capacity as successor servicer, nor any other successor servicer shall be responsible for the lack of information and/or documents that it cannot otherwise obtain through reasonable efforts.

Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than 30 days of the appointment of a successor entity, the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer of any Mortgage Notes and the related documents in the Servicer’s possession.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing responsibilities to the successor 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 and provide for the same remedies set forth in Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 herein and (ii) an assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the Servicer under this Agreement, 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 termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7 .03, 8.01, 8.02 or 8.03 shall not affect any claims that the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer arising out of the Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such termination or resignation.  In addition, in the event any successor servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 8.02(iii) of this Agreement, such successor servicer must satisfy the conditions relating to the transfer of servicing set forth in the Trust Agreement.

The Servicer shall deliver promptly to the successor servicer the funds in the Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Mortgage Loan documents 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.

Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, it shall notify the Seller and Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor of such appointment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.04.

Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, upon the termination or resignation of the Servicer under this Agreement pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01, 8.02 (other than in accordance with Section 8.02(iii)) or 8.03, the party appointing a successor servicer hereunder (whether a Seller or the Master Servicer) shall use commercially reasonable efforts (without loss, cost or expense to such party) to cause the servicer selected  as the successor servicer of the Mortgage Loans to reimburse the Servicer for all outstanding unreimbursed Monthly Advances and Servicing Advances (including but not limited to trailing expenses representing Servicing Advances incurred prior to but invoiced after the date of termination) and all accrued and unpaid Servicing Fees upon the transfer of servicing to such successor servicer; provided, however, that if such successor i s unwilling to do so, then the party appointing such successor servicer will require the successor servicer to reimburse the Servicer as such amounts are received from the related Mortgage Loans, with the order of reimbursement being in direct order of the oldest outstanding Servicing Fee, Monthly Advance or Servicing Advance, as the case may be.  In addition to the foregoing, following the termination or resignation of the Servicer under this Agreement, the Servicer shall continue to be entitled to the benefits of Section 6.03 with respect to events occurring prior to such termination.

Section 9.02.

Costs.

The Seller shall pay the legal fees and expenses of its attorneys.  Costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transfer of the servicing responsibilities, including fees for delivering Servicing Files, shall be paid by (i) the terminated or resigning servicer if such termination or resignation is a result of an occurrence of a termination event under Section 8.01 or a Trigger Event under Section 8.03, (ii) the related Seller if such termination is pursuant to Section 8.02(iii) and (iii) in all other cases by the Trust Fund.  Subject to Section 2.02, the Seller, on behalf of the Depositor, shall pay the costs associated with the preparation, delivery and recording of Assignments of Mortgages by the Servicer.

Section 9.03.

Protection of Confidential Information.  

The Servicer shall keep confidential and shall not divulge to any party, without the Seller’s prior written consent, any nonpublic information pertaining to the Mortgage Loans or any borrower thereunder, except to the extent that it is appropriate for the Servicer to do so in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities or other governmental agencies or it is otherwise in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.

Subject

"Full-File" Reporting to Credit Repositories




Part IV, Section 107, of the servicing Guide currently requires servicers to report only 90-day delinquencies to the four major credit repositories.  To ensure that the repositories have up-to-date information for both servicing and origination activity, we have decided to begin requiring -- as of the month ending March 31, 1996 -- servicers to provide the credit repositories a "full-file" status report for the mortgages they service for us.

"Full-file" reporting requires that servicers submit a monthly report to each of the credit repositories to describe the exact status for each mortgage they service for us.  The status reported generally should be the one in effect as of the last business day of each month.  Servicers may, however, use a slightly later cut-off date -- for example, at the and of the first week of a month -- to assure that payment corrections, returned checks, and other adjustments related to the previous month's activity can be appropriately reflected in their report for that month.  Statuses that must be reported for any given mortgage include the following: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, and charged-off.  (The credit repositories will provide the applicable codes for reporting these statuses to them.)  A listing of each of the major rep ositories to which "full-file" status reports must be sent is attached.


Servicers are responsible for the complete and accurate reporting of mortgage status information to the repositories and for resolving any disputes that arise about the information they report.  Servicers must respond promptly to any inquiries from borrowers regarding specific mortgage status information about them that was reported to the credit repositories.


Servicers should contact their Customer Account Team in their lead Fannie Mae regional office if they have any questions about this expanded reporting requirement.

This Securitization Subservicing Agreement (this “Agreement”), entered into as of the 1st day of August, 2004, by and among LEHMAN BROTHERS HOLDINGS INC., a Delaware corporation (the “Seller”), Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. (the “Servicer”), Aurora Loan Services Inc., as master servicer (the “Master Servicer”), and acknowledged by LASALLE BANK NATIONAL ASSOCIATION, as trustee (the “Trustee”) under the Trust Agreement (as defined herein), recites and provides as follows:

W I T N E S S E T H:

WHEREAS, the Servicer (successor by merger to Wells Fargo Home Mortgage, Inc.) and Lehman Brothers Bank, FSB (the “Bank”) are parties to a Flow Subservicing Agreement, dated as of October 1, 2003 (the “Flow Servicing Agreement”), pursuant to which the Servicer services certain of the residential, fixed and adjustable rate mortgage loans identified on Exhibit A hereto originated by unrelated third party originators (the “Mortgage Loans”).

WHEREAS, pursuant to an Assignment and Assumption Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2004 (the “Assignment Agreement”), the Seller acquired from the Bank all of the Bank’s right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans currently serviced under the Flow Servicing Agreement and assumed for the benefit of the Servicer and the Bank the rights and obligations of the Bank as owner of such Mortgage Loans pursuant to the Flow Servicing Agreement.

WHEREAS, the Seller has conveyed the Mortgage Loans on a servicing-retained basis to Structured Asset Securities Corporation (the “Depositor”), which in turn has conveyed the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee under a trust agreement dated as of August 1, 2004 (the “Trust Agreement”), among the Trustee, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A. as securities administrator (the “Securities Administrator”) and The Murrayhill Company, as credit risk manager (the “Credit Risk Manager”);

WHEREAS, from time to time certain other of the mortgage loans conveyed by the Depositor to the Trustee under the Trust Agreement on the Closing Date and serviced by other servicers may subsequent to the Closing Date be transferred to the Servicer for servicing under this Agreement, at which date Exhibit A hereto will be amended to include such mortgage loans which will then be considered “Mortgage Loans” under this Agreement;

WHEREAS, from time to time certain of the Mortgage Loans serviced under the Agreement may be transferred to another servicer for servicing under such other servicer’s servicing agreement at which date Exhibit A hereto will be amended to exclude such Mortgage Loans from servicing under this Agreement;

WHEREAS, on and after the Closing Date the Seller and the Trustee desire that the Servicer service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement, and the Servicer has agreed to do so, subject to the right of the Seller and of the Master Servicer to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer hereunder at any time and to the other conditions set forth herein;

WHEREAS, the Seller and the Servicer agree that the provisions of the Flow Servicing Agreement shall not apply to such related Mortgage Loans for so long as such related Mortgage Loans remain subject to the provisions of the Trust Agreement;

WHEREAS, the Master Servicer shall be obligated under the Trust Agreement, among other things, to supervise the servicing of the Mortgage Loans on behalf of the Trustee, and shall have the right, under certain circumstances, to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under this Servicing Agreement upon the occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default as provided herein;

WHEREAS, multiple classes of certificates (the “Certificates”), including the Class P and the Class X Certificates, will be issued on the Closing Date pursuant to the Trust Agreement, and Lehman Brothers Inc. or a nominee thereof is expected to be the initial registered holder of the Class P and Class X Certificates;

WHEREAS, subsequent to the Closing Date, Lehman Brothers Inc. intends to convey all of its rights, title and interest in and to the Class P and the Class X Certificates and all payments and all other proceeds received thereunder to an owner trust or other special purpose entity in which it will hold the sole equity interest, which owner trust or special purpose entity will issue net interest margin securities (“NIM Securities”) through an indenture trust, such NIM Securities secured, in part, by the payments on such Certificates (the “NIMS Transaction”);

WHEREAS, one or more insurers (collectively, the “NIMS Insurer”) may each issue one or more insurance policies guaranteeing certain payments under the NIM Securities to be issued pursuant to the indenture in the NIMS Transaction;

WHEREAS, in the event there may be two or more individual insurers it is intended that the rights extended to the NIMS Insurer pursuant to this Agreement be allocated among two or more individual insurers that issue insurance policies in connection with the NIMS Transaction through a NIMS Insurance Agreement by and among such insurers and the parties hereto;

WHEREAS, the Seller and the Servicer acknowledge and agree that the Seller will assign all of its rights and delegate all of its obligations hereunder (excluding (i) the Seller’s rights and obligations as owner of the servicing rights relating to the Mortgage Loans, (ii) its rights to terminate the rights and obligations of the Servicer under Section 8.02(iii) hereunder and (iii) its obligations pursuant to Section 9.02, all of which rights and obligations will remain with the Seller or be assigned or delegated to the Master Servicer) to the Trustee, and that each reference herein to the Seller is intended, unless otherwise specified, to mean the Seller or the Trustee, as assignee, whichever is the owner of the Mortgage Loans from time to time;

NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements hereinafter set forth and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, the Seller, the Master Servicer and the Servicer hereby agree as follows:

Servicer to Service.  

The Servicer, as an independent contractor, shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans from and after the Closing Date or Servicing Transfer Date, as applicable, and shall have full power and authority, acting alone or through the utilization of a third party service provider, to do any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Servicer may deem necessary or desirable, consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with Accepted Servicing Practices.  The Servicer shall service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the guidelines of the applicable agency guides and shall comply with the rules and regulations of the applicable agency.  The Servicer shall be responsible for any and all acts of a third party service provider and the Servicer’s utilization of such third party service provider shall in no way relieve th e liability of the Servicer under this Agreement.

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 waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the Trust Fund; provided, however, that unless the Servicer has obtained the prior written consent of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall not permit any modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate (except for modifications relating to Relief Act Reductions), defer or forgive the payment of principal or interest, reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except for actual payments of principal) or change t he final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan.  In the event of any such modification which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments on any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment has been deferred, make a Monthly Advance in accordance with Section 4.03, in an amount equal to the difference between (a) such month’s principal and one month’s interest at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate on the unpaid principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (b) the amount paid by the Mortgagor.  The Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement for such advances to the same extent as for all other advances made pursuant to Section 3.04.  Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered, to execute and deliver on behalf of itself and the Trustee, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of part ial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties.  Upon the reasonable request of the Servicer, the Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents, furnished to it by the Servicer and reasonably satisfactory to the Trustee, necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement; provided, that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such powers of attorney unless such actions of the Servicer are performed at, and in accordance with, the written direction of the Trustee.  Promptly after the execution of any assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall forward to the Master Servicer copies of any documents evidencing such assumption, modification, consolidation or extension.  Notwithstandin g anything to the contrary contained in this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall not make or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage Loan that would cause any REMIC created under the Trust Agreement to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of any tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the Code.

The Servicer is authorized, without the prior approval of the Trustee, to consent to the refinancing of any Superior Lien on Mortgaged Property, provided that (i) the resulting Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio of such Mortgage Loan is no higher than the Combined Loan-to-Value Ratio prior to such refinancing; (ii) the interest rate, or in the case of any Superior Lien which is an adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, the applicable Maximum Rate which can be charged under the related Mortgage Note is no more than 2.00% higher than the interest rate or the Maximum Rate, as the case may be, on the Mortgage Loan evidencing the existing Superior Lien immediately prior to the date of such refinancing; (iii) the Mortgage Loan evidencing the Superior Lien is not subject to negative amortization and (iv) the Monthly Payment on the Mortgage Loan evidencing the existing Superior Lien has not increased since the Due Date immediately prior to the date of such refinancing.

The Servicer shall not without the Trustee’s written consent: (i) initiate any action, suit or proceedings solely under the Trustee’s name without indicating the Servicer’s, representative capacity or (ii) take any action with the intent to cause, and which actually does cause, the Trustee to be registered to do business in any state.  The Servicer shall indemnify the Trustee for any and all costs, liabilities and expenses incurred by the Trustee in connection with the negligent or willful misuse of such powers of attorney by the Servicer.

In servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Servicer shall employ procedures (including collection procedures) and exercise the same care that it would employ and exercise in servicing and administering similar mortgage loans for its own account, giving due consideration to Accepted Servicing Practices where such practices do not conflict with the requirements of this Agreement.

Section 3.02.

Collection and Liquidation of Mortgage Loans.  

Continuously from the Closing Date or Servicing Transfer Date, as applicable, until the date each Mortgage Loan ceases to be subject to this Agreement, the Servicer shall proceed diligently to collect all payments due under each of the Mortgage Loans when the same shall become due and payable and shall take special care in ascertaining and estimating Escrow Payments and all other charges that will become due and payable with respect to the Mortgage Loans and each related Mortgaged Property, 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.  The Servicer shall also apply payments of interest and principal against any Simple Interest Mortgage Loans using the Simple Interest Method.

The Servicer shall use its best efforts, consistent with the procedures that the Servicer would use in servicing similar mortgage loans for its own account, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of such Mortgaged Properties as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.01.  The Servicer shall use its best efforts to realize upon defaulted Mortgage Loans in such a manner as will maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the Trustee, taking into account, among other things, the timing of foreclosure proceedings.  The foregoing is subject to the provisions that, in any case in which Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such proper ty unless it shall determine in its discretion (i) that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan to the Master Servicer after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable by the Servicer through Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds from the related Mortgaged Property.  In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan and not postponed pursuant to Section 3.01 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 (1) the Servicer would take for other institutional investors under similar circumstances with respect to a similar mortgage loan, (2) shall be consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, (3) the Servicer shall determine prudently to be in the best interest of the Trust Fund, and (4) is c onsistent with any related PMI Policy or LPMI Policy.  In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan is not postponed pursuant to Section 3.01 and remains delinquent for a period of ninety (90) days or any other default continues for a period of ninety (90) days beyond the expiration of any grace or cure period, the Servicer shall commence foreclosure proceedings, provided that prior to commencing foreclosure proceedings, the Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer in writing of the Servicer’s intention to do so, and the Servicer shall not commence foreclosure proceedings if the Master Servicer objects to such action within three (3) Business Days of receiving such notice.  In such connection, the Servicer shall be responsible for advancing all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section 3.04.

Section 3.08.

(Reserved.)  

Section 3.09.

Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges.  

(a)

With respect to each Mortgage Loan which provides for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall maintain accurate records of those escrowed items which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of fire and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges (including renewal premiums) (“Property Charges”) and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date, 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. The Servicer assumes full responsibility for the timely payment of all such bills and shall effect timely payment of all such charges irrespective of each Mortgagor’s f aithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments, and such payments

(b)

To the extent that a Mortgage Loan does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Servicer shall make advances from its own funds to effect payment of all Property Charges upon receipt of notice of any failure to pay on the part of the Mortgagor, or at such other time as the Servicer determines to be in the best interest of the Trust Fund, provided, that in any event the Servicer shall pay such charges on or before the earlier of (a) any date by which payment is necessary to preserve the lien status of the Mortgage or (b) the date which is ninety days after the date on which such charges first became due.  The Servicer shall pay any late fee or penalty which is payable due to any delay in payment of any Property Charge after the earlier to occur of (a) the date on which the Servicer receives notice of the failure of the Mortgagor to pay such Property Charge or (b) the date which is ninety days after the date on which such charges first became due.

Section 3.10.

Protection of Accounts.  

The Servicer may transfer the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account to a different Eligible Institution from time to time and shall give notice to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of any change in the location of the Custodial Account; provided that in the event the Custodial Account or any Escrow Account is held in a depository institution or trust company that ceases to be an Eligible Institution, the Servicer shall transfer such Custodial Account or Escrow Account, as the case may be, to an Eligible Institution.

The Servicer shall bear any expenses, losses or damages sustained by the Master Servicer or the Trustee if the Custodial Account and/or the Escrow Account are not demand deposit accounts.

Section 3.11.

Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

The Servicer shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer acceptable under Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac guidelines against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the replacement value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan and (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan and (b) an amount such that the proceeds thereof shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor or the loss payee from becoming a co-insurer.

If upon origination of the Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgaged Property was located in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Flood 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 with a generally acceptable insurance carrier acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac in an amount representing coverage equal to the lesser of (i) the minimum amount required, under the terms of coverage, to compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement cost basis (or the unpaid balance of the mortgage if replacement cost coverage is not available for the type of building insured) and (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. If at any time during the term of the Mortgage Loan, the Servicer determines in accordance with applicable law and pursuant to the Fannie Mae Guides that a Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area and is not covered by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than the amount required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Servicer shall notify the related Mortgagor that the Mortgagor must obtain such flood insurance coverage, and if said Mortgagor fails to obtain the required flood insurance coverage within forty-five (45) days after such notification, the Servicer shall immediately force place the required flood insurance on the Mortgagor’s behalf.

If a Mortgage Loan is secured by a unit in a condominium project, the Servicer shall verify that the coverage required of the owner’s association, including hazard, flood, liability and fidelity coverage, is being maintained in accordance with then current Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac requirements.

In the event that the Master Servicer or the Servicer shall determine that the Mortgaged Property should be insured against loss or damage by hazards and risks not covered by the insurance required to be maintained by the Mortgagor pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, the Servicer shall communicate and consult with the Mortgagor with respect to the need for such insurance and bring to the Mortgagor’s attention the desirability of protection of the Mortgaged Property.

All policies required hereunder shall name the Servicer as loss payee and shall be endorsed with standard or union mortgagee clauses, without contribution, which shall provide for at least 30 days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in amount or material change in coverage.

The Servicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of choice in selecting either his 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 Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and are licensed to do business in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located.  The Servicer shall determine that such policies provide sufficient risk coverage and amounts, that they insure the property owner, and that they properly describe the property address.  The Servicer shall furnish to the Mortgagor a formal notice of expiration of any such insurance in sufficient time for the Mortgagor to arrange for renewal coverage by the expiration date.

Pursuant to Section 3.04, 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 related Mortgaged Property, or property acquired in liquidation of the Mortgage Loan, or to be released to the Mortgagor, in accordance with the Servicer’s normal servicing procedures as specified in Section 3.15) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.05.

Notwithstanding anything set forth in the preceding paragraph, the Servicer agrees to indemnify the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer, the Certificateholders, the Master Servicer and the Trust Fund for any claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments and any other costs, fees and expenses that any such indemnified party may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Mortgagor (or the Servicer) to maintain hazard insurance or flood insurance with respect to the related Mortgaged Property which complies with the requirements of this section.

Section 3.12.

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 3.11 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 3.11, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 3.11.  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 3.05.  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 3.11, 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 deposited from the Servicer’s funds, without reimbursement therefor. Upon request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to such person a certificate of insurance 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 Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer.

Section 3.13.

Maintenance of Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Servicer shall maintain with responsible companies, 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 (“Servicer Employees”).  Any such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker’s Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of such Servicer Employees.  Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy also shall protect and insure the Servicer against losses in connection with the release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without hav ing obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby.  No provision of this Section 3.13 requiring such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall diminish or relieve the Servicer from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement.  The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the corresponding amounts required by the Fannie Mae Guides or by Freddie Mac in the Freddie Mac Sellers’ & Servicers’ Guide, or as otherwise acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac.  Upon the request of the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, the Servicer shall cause to be delivered to such party a certificate of insurance for such fidelity bond and insurance policy and a statement from the surety and the insurer that such fidelity bond and insurance policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insu rer.

Section 3.14.

Inspections.

The Servicer shall inspect the Mortgaged Property as often as deemed necessary by the Servicer in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices to assure itself that the value of the Mortgaged Property is being preserved.  In addition, if any Mortgage Loan is more than 45 days delinquent, the Servicer promptly shall inspect the Mortgaged Property and shall conduct subsequent inspections in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices or as may be required by the primary mortgage guaranty insurer.  Upon request, the Servicer shall produce an electronic report of each such inspection.

Section 3.15.

Restoration of Mortgaged Property.

The Servicer need not obtain the approval of the Master Servicer or the Trustee prior to releasing any Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds to the Mortgagor to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property if such release is in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  For claims greater than $15,000, at a minimum, the Servicer shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:

(i)

the Servicer shall receive satisfactory independent verification of completion of repairs and issuance of any required approvals with respect thereto;

(ii)

the Servicer shall take all steps necessary to preserve the priority of the lien of the Mortgage, including, but not limited to requiring waivers with respect to mechanics’ and materialmen’s liens;

(iii)

the Servicer shall verify that the Mortgage Loan is not in default; and

(iv)

pending repairs or restoration, the Servicer shall place the Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds in the Escrow Account.

Section 3.16.

Maintenance of PMI and/or LPMI Policy; Claims.

(a)

The Servicer shall comply with all provisions of applicable state and federal law relating to the cancellation of, or collection of premiums with respect to, PMI Policies, including, but not limited to, the provisions of the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998, and all regulations promulgated thereunder, as amended from time to time.  The Servicer shall be obligated to make premium payments with respect to PMI Policies required to be maintained by the Mortgagor rather than the Seller, if the Mortgagor is required but fails to pay any PMI Policy premium, which shall be paid from the Servicer’s own funds.  The Servicer shall not be required to make any premium payments with respect to LPMI Policies.  Any premium payments made by the Servicer from its own funds pursuant to this Section 3.16(a) shall be recoverable by the Servicer as a Servicing Advance, subject to the reimbursement provisions of Section 3.04(iv).  

With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than LPMI Loans) with a loan-to-value ratio at origination in excess of 80%, the Servicer shall maintain or cause the Mortgagor to maintain (to the extent that the Mortgage Loan requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance) in full force and effect a PMI Policy, and shall pay or shall cause the Mortgagor to pay the premium thereon on a timely basis, until the LTV of such Mortgage Loan is reduced to 80%.  In the event that such PMI Policy shall be terminated, the Servicer shall obtain from another Qualified Insurer a comparable replacement policy, with a total coverage equal to the remaining coverage of such terminated PMI Policy, at substantially the same fee level.  The Servicer shall not take any action which would result in noncoverage under any applicable PMI Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of th e Servicer would have been covered thereunder.  In connection with any assumption or substitution agreements entered into or to be entered into with respect to a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall promptly notify the insurer under the related PMI Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such PMI Policy and shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage under such PMI Policy.  If such PMI Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of liability, the Servicer shall obtain a replacement PMI Policy as provided above.

(b)

With respect to each Mortgage Loan covered by a PMI Policy or LPMI Policy, the Servicer shall take all such actions on behalf of the Trustee as are necessary to service, maintain and administer the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with such Policy and to enforce the rights under such Policy.  Except as expressly set forth herein, the Servicer shall have full authority on behalf of the Trust Fund to do anything it deems appropriate or desirable in connection with the servicing, maintenance and administration of such Policy; provided that the Servicer shall not take any action to permit any modification or assumption of a Mortgage Loan covered by an LPMI Policy or PMI Policy, or take any other action with respect to such Mortgage Loan, which would result in non-coverage under such Policy of any loss which, but for actions of any Servicer or the subservicer , would have been covered thereunder.  If the Qualified Insurer fails to pay a claim under an LPMI Policy or PMI Policy solely as a result of a breach by the Servicer or subservicer of its obligations hereunder or under such Policy, the Servicer shall be required to deposit in the Custodial Account on or prior to the next succeeding Remittance Date an amount equal to such unpaid claim from its own funds without any rights to reimbursement from the Trust Fund.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Qualified Insurers and shall furnish all reasonable evidence and information in the possession of the Servicer to which the Servicer has access with respect to the related Mortgage Loan; provided, however, notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in any LPMI Policy or PMI Policy, the Servicer shall not be required to submit any reports to the related Qualified Insurer until a reporting date that is at least 15 days after the Servicer has received sufficient loan level information from the Seller to appropriately code its servicing systems in accordance with the Qualified Insurer’s requirements.

(c)

In connection with its activities as servicer, the Servicer agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Trustee, claims to the Qualified Insurer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such PMI Policy or LPMI Policy and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan.  Any amounts collected by the Servicer under any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy shall be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(xiv), subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.04.

(d)

Upon request by the Servicer, the Trustee shall furnish the Servicer with any powers of attorney and other documents (within three (3) Business Days upon request from the Servicer) in form as provided to it by the Servicer (and mutually acceptable to the Trustee and the Servicer) necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer any PMI or LPMI Policy; provided, however, that the Trustee shall not be liable for the actions of the Servicer under such power of attorney unless such actions of the Servicer are performed at, and in accordance with, the written direction of the Trustee.

(e)

The Servicer shall deposit into the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 3.03(v) hereof, all Insurance Proceeds received under the terms of a PMI Policy or a LPMI Policy.

(f)

Notwithstanding the provisions of (a) and (b) above, the Servicer shall not take any action in regard to any PMI Policy or LPMI Policy inconsistent with the interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders or with the rights and interests of the Trustee or the Certificateholders under this Agreement.

Section 3.17.

Title, Management and Disposition of REO Property.

In the event that title to any 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 Trustee or its nominee in trust for the benefit of the Certificateholders, or in the event the Trustee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an Opinion of Counsel obtained by the Servicer from any attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located. The Person or Persons holding such title other than the Trustee shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being he ld as nominee for the Trustee.

The Servicer shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Trustee solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale.  The Servicer, either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer, shall 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.  The Servicer shall attempt to sell the same (and may temporarily rent the same for a period not greater than one year, except as otherwise provided below) on such terms and conditions as the Servicer deems to be in the best interest of the Trustee and the Certificateholders.

If the Servicer hereafter becomes aware that a Mortgaged Property is an Environmental Problem Property, the Servicer will notify the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of the existence of the Environmental Problem Property.  Additionally, the Servicer shall set forth in such notice a description of such problem, a recommendation to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer relating to the proposed action regarding the Environmental Problem Property, and the Servicer shall carry out the recommendation set forth in such notice unless otherwise directed by the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer in writing within five (5) days after its receipt (or deemed receipt) of such notice in accordance with the terms and provisions of Section 9.04 below.  The Master Servicer shall be provided a copy of the NIMS Insurer’s instructions to the Servicer.  Notwithsta nding the foregoing, the Servicer shall obtain the Master Servicer’s and the NIMS Insurer’s written consent to any expenditures proposed to remediate Environmental Problem Properties or to defend any claims associated with Environmental Problem Properties if such expenses, in the aggregate, are expected to exceed $100,000.  Failure to provide written notice of disapproval of the expenditure within five (5) days of receipt (or deemed receipt) of such request for prepaid expenditures shall be deemed an approval of such expenditure.  The Master Servicer shall be provided with a copy of the NIMS Insurer’s instructions to the Servicer.  If the Servicer has received reliable instructions to the effect that a Property is an Environmental Problem Property (e.g., Servicer obtains a broker’s price opinion which reveals the potential for such problem), the Servicer will not accept a deed-in-lieu of foreclosure upon any such Property without first obtaining a preliminary environmental investigation for the Property satisfactory to the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer.

In the event that the Trust Fund acquires any REO Property in connection with a default or imminent default on a Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such REO Property not later than the end of the third taxable year after the year of its acquisition by the Trust Fund unless the Servicer has applied for and received a grant of extension from the Internal Revenue Service (and provide a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer) to the effect that, under the REMIC Provisions and any relevant proposed legislation and under applicable state law, the applicable Trust REMIC may hold REO Property for a longer period without adversely affecting the REMIC status of such REMIC or causing the imposition of a federal or state tax upon such REMIC.  If the Servicer has received such an extension (and provided a copy of the same to the NIMS Insurer and the Master Servicer), then the Servicer shall continue to attempt to sell the REO Property for its fair market value for such period longer than three years as such extension permits (the “Extended Period”).  If the Servicer has not received such an extension and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the end of such third taxable year after its acquisition by the Trust Fund or if the Servicer has received such an extension, and the Servicer is unable to sell the REO Property within the period ending three months before the close of the Extended Period, the Servicer shall, before the end of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as applicable, (i) purchase such REO Property at a price equal to the REO Property’s fair market value, as acceptable to the NIMS Insurer or (ii) auction the REO Property to the highest bidder (which may be the Servicer) in an auction reasonably designed to produce a fair price prior to the expiration of the three-year period or the Extended Period, as the case may be.  The Trustee shall sign any document or take any other action reasonably requested by the Servicer which would enable the Servicer, on behalf of the Trust Fund, to request such grant of extension.

Notwithstanding any other provisions of this Agreement, no REO Property acquired by the Trust Fund shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used by or on behalf of the Trust Fund in such a manner or pursuant to any terms that would:  (i) cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code; or (ii) subject any Trust REMIC to the imposition of any federal income taxes on the income earned from such REO Property, including any taxes imposed by reason of Sections 860F or 860G(c) of the Code, unless the Servicer has agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer with respect to the imposition of any such taxes.

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 Trust Fund.  Notwithstanding the previous sentence, prior to acceptance by the Servicer of an offer to sell any REO Property for a sale price that is less than 90% of the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall notify the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer of such offering in writing which notification shall set forth all material terms of said offer (each a “Notice of Sale”).  The Master Servicer and/or the NIMS Insurer shall be deemed to have approved the sale of any REO Property unless it notifies the Servicer in writing within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of the related Notice of Sale, that it disapproves of the related sale, in which case the Servicer shall not proceed with such sale.  The proceeds of sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account.  

The Servicer shall also maintain on each REO Property fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in 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.

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 Wells Fargo Servicing Fees and unreimbursed advances made pursuant to this Section or Section 4.03 and pay the Seller any unpaid Seller Remittance Amount to the extent not previously paid pursuant to Section 3.04.

The Servicer shall make advances of all funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to Section 3.10, such advances to be reimbursed from the disposition or liquidation proceeds of the REO Property.  The Servicer shall make monthly distributions on each Remittance Date to the Master Servicer of the net cash flow from the REO Property (which shall equal the revenues from such REO Property net of the expenses described in this Section 3.17 and of any reserves reasonably required from time to time to be maintained to satisfy anticipated liabilities for such expenses).

Section 3.18.

Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 4.02, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer on or before the Remittance Date in each month a statement with respect to any REO Property covering the operation of such REO Property for the previous month and the Servicer’s efforts in connection with the sale of such REO Property and any rental of such REO Property incidental to the sale thereof for the previous month.  That statement shall be accompanied by such other information as either the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer shall reasonably request.

Section 3.19.

Liquidation Reports.

Upon the foreclosure sale of any Mortgaged Property or the acquisition thereof by the Trustee pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Servicer shall submit to the Trustee and the Master Servicer a liquidation report with respect to such Mortgaged Property.  In addition, the Servicer shall provide the Master Servicer a report setting forth Servicing Advances and other expenses incurred in connection with the liquidation of any Mortgage Loan.

Section 3.20.

Reports of Foreclosures and Abandonments of Mortgaged Property.

Following the foreclosure sale or abandonment of any Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall report such foreclosure or abandonment as required pursuant to Section 6050J of the Code.

Section 3.21.

Prepayment Charges.

The Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any Prepayment Charge with respect to any Mortgage Loan which contains a Prepayment Charge which prepays during the term of the charge.  If the Servicer or its designee fails to collect the Prepayment Charge upon any prepayment of any Mortgage Loan which contains a Prepayment Charge, the Servicer shall pay the Trust Fund at such time (by deposit to the Custodial Account) an amount equal to amount of the Prepayment Charge which was not collected.  Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or its designee may waive (and shall waive, in the case of (ii)(c) below) a Prepayment Charge without paying the Trust Fund the amount of the Prepayment Charge if (i) the Mortgage Loan is in default (defined as 61 days or more delinquent) and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) if the prepayment is not a result of a refinance by the Servicer or any of its affiliates and (a) the Mortgage Loan is foreseen to be in default and such waiver would maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the related Mortgage Loan, (b) the collection of the Prepayment Charge would be in violation of applicable laws or (c) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, any Prepayment Charge in any instance when a Mortgage Loan is in foreclosure.

Section 3.22.

Confidentiality/Protecting Customer Information.

Each party agrees that it shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the privacy or security of Customer Information shall maintain appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of Customer Information, including, if applicable, maintaining security measures designed to meet the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information, 66 Fed. Reg. 8616 and complying with the privacy regulations under Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act, 15 U.S.C. § 6801 et seq., and the rules promulgated thereunder.  For purposes of this Section, “Customer Information” means any personal information concerning a Mortgagor that is disclosed by one party to this Agreement to the other.

Section 3.23.

Credit Reporting.

For each Mortgage Loan, the Servicer has and shall continue to accurately and fully furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information (e.g., favorable and unfavorable) on its borrower credit files to each of the following credit repositories:  Equifax Credit Information Services, Inc., Trans Union, LLC and Experian Information Solution, Inc., on a monthly basis.  In addition, with respect to any Mortgage Loan serviced for a Fannie Mae pool, the Servicer shall transmit full credit reporting data to each of such credit repositories in accordance with Fannie Mae Guide Announcement 95-19 (November 20, 1995), a copy of which is attached hereto as Exhibit F, reporting each of the following statuses, each month with respect to a Mortgage Loan in a Fannie Mae pool: New origination, current, de linquent (30-60-90-days, etc) foreclosed or charged off.

Section 3.24.

Superior Liens.

The Servicer shall monitor the status of each Superior Lien in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  If necessary to comply with Accepted Servicing Practices and permitted by applicable law, the Servicer shall file (or cause to be filed) a request for notice of any action by a superior lienholder under a Superior Lien for the protection of the Trust Fund’s interest, with all out of pocket costs deemed to be a Servicing Advance, where permitted by local law and whenever applicable state law does not require that a junior lienholder be named as a party defendant in foreclosure proceedings in order to foreclose such junior lienholder’s equity of redemption.

If the Servicer is notified that any superior lienholder has accelerated or intends to accelerate the obligations secured by the Superior Lien, or has declared or intends to declare a default under the mortgage or the promissory note secured thereby, or has filed or intends to file an election to have the Mortgaged Property sold or foreclosed, the Servicer shall take, on behalf of the Trustee, whatever actions are necessary to protect the interests of the Trust Fund in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  The Servicer shall not make such a Servicing Advance except to the extent that it determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such advance would be recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan and in no event in an amount that is greater than the then outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan.  The Se rvicer shall thereafter take such action as is necessary to recover the amount so advanced.

Section 4.02.

Statements to Master Servicer.  

Not later than the tenth (10th) calendar day of each month, the Servicer shall furnish to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer an electronic monthly remittance advice in the Fidelity (or any successor thereto) S50Y format (or in such other formats mutually agreed to between the Servicer and the Master Servicer), such advice relating to the period ending on the last day of the preceding calendar month.  The format of this monthly reporting may be amended from time to time to the extent necessary to comply with applicable law.

Such monthly remittance advice shall also be accompanied by a supplemental report provided to the Master Servicer, the Securities Administrator, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller which includes on an aggregate basis for the previous Due Period (i) the amount of claims filed on any LPMI Policy, (ii) the amount of any claim payments made on any LPMI Policy, (iii) the amount of claims denied or curtailed on any LPMI Policy and (iv) policies cancelled with respect to those Mortgage Loans covered by any LPMI Policy purchased by the Seller on behalf of the Trust Fund.  

The Servicer shall prepare and file any and all usual and customary tax returns, information statements or other filings required to be delivered to any governmental taxing authority, the Securities Administrator 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 Securities Administrator and the NIMS Insurer with such information concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary for such Securities Administrator to prepare federal income tax returns as the Securities Administrator may reasonably request from time to time.  Such obligation of the Servicer shall be deemed satisfied to the extent that substantially comparable information has been provided by the Servicer throughout the calendar year.

Section 4.03.

Monthly Advances by Servicer.

On the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds or from amounts held for future distribution, or both, an amount equal to 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.  In the case of Simple Interest Mortgage Loans the preceding sentence shall only apply to that portion of the Monthly Payment attributable to interest.  Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be replaced 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 remittances to th e Master Servicer required to be made on such Remittance Date.  The Servicer shall keep appropriate records of such amounts and will provide such records to the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer upon reasonable request.  

The Servicer’s obligation to make such Monthly Advances as to any Mortgage Loan will continue through the last Monthly Payment due prior to the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan, or through the last Remittance Date prior to the Remittance Date for the distribution of all Liquidation Proceeds and other payments or recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation Proceeds) with respect to the related Mortgage Loan.  

Section 4.04.

Due Dates Other Than the First of the Month.  

Mortgage Loans having Due Dates other than the first day of a month shall be accounted for as described in this Section 4.04.  Any payment due on a day other than the first day of each month shall be considered due on the first day of the month following the month in which that payment is due as if such payment were due on the first day of said month.  For example, a payment due on August 15 shall be considered to be due on September 1 of said month.  Any payment collected on a Mortgage Loan after the Cut-off Date shall be deposited in the Custodial Account.  For Mortgage Loans with Due Dates on the first day of a month, deposits to the Custodial Account begin with the payment due on the first of the month following the Cut-off Date.

ARTICLE V.

GENERAL SERVICING PROCEDURES

Section 5.01.

Transfers of Mortgaged Property.  

The Servicer shall use its best efforts to enforce any “due-on-sale” provision contained in any Mortgage or Mortgage Note and to deny assumption by the person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been or is about to be sold whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains liable on the Mortgage and the Mortgage Note.  When the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall, 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, that the Servicer shall 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 PMI Policy or LPMI Policy, if any.

If the Servicer reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, the Servicer shall enter into (i) an assumption and modification agreement with the person to whom such property has been conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and the original Mortgagor remains liable thereon or (ii) in the event the Servicer is unable under applicable law to require that the original Mortgagor remain liable under the Mortgage Note and the Servicer has the prior consent of the primary mortgage guaranty insurer, a substitution of liability agreement with the seller of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and the seller of the Mortgaged Property is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note.  If an assumption fee is collected by the Servicer for entering into an assumption agreement, such fee will be retained by the Servicer as additional servicing compensation.  In connection with any such assumption, none of the Mortgage Interest Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note, the term of the Mortgage Loan or the outstanding principal amount of the Mortgage Loan shall be changed.

To the extent that any Mortgage Loan is assumable, the Servicer shall inquire diligently into the creditworthiness of the proposed transferee, and shall use the underwriting criteria for approving the credit of the proposed transferee which are used by the Servicer, its affiliates or Fannie Mae with respect to underwriting mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loans.  If the credit of the proposed transferee does not meet such underwriting criteria, the Servicer diligently shall, to the extent permitted by the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and by applicable law, accelerate the maturity of the Mortgage Loan.

Section 5.02.

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 shall notify the Master Servicer in the Monthly Remittance Advice as provided in Section 4.02, and may request the release of any Mortgage Loan Documents from the Seller in accordance with this Section 5.02 hereof.

If the Servicer satisfies or releases a Mortgage without first having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or should the Servicer otherwise prejudice any rights the Seller, the Trustee or the Trust Fund may have under the mortgage instruments, the Servicer shall deposit into the Custodial Account the entire outstanding principal balance, plus all accrued interest on such Mortgage Loan, on the day preceding the Remittance Date in the month following the date of such release.  The Servicer shall maintain the Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy as provided for in Section 3.13 insuring the Servicer against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

Section 5.03.

Servicing Compensation.  

As consideration for servicing the Mortgage Loans subject to this Agreement, the Servicer shall retain the relevant Wells Fargo Servicing Fee for each Mortgage Loan remaining subject to this Agreement during any month or part thereof.  Such Wells Fargo Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly.  Additional servicing compensation in the form of Ancillary Income shall be retained by the Servicer and is not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account.  The obligation of the Seller to pay the Wells Fargo Servicing Fee is limited to, and the Wells Fargo Servicing Fee is payable solely from, the interest portion (including recoveries with respect to interest from Liquidation Proceeds) of such Monthly Payment collected by the Servicer.  The aggregate Wells Fargo Servicing Fees for any month with respect to the Mortgage Loans shall be reduced by the aggre gate Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount for such month.  The Servicer shall be obligated to pay the aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfall Amount for any month to the extent not covered by the aggregate Wells Fargo Servicing Fees for such month up to a maximum of the aggregate General Servicing Fees for such month.  The Servicer shall be entitled to recover any unpaid Wells Fargo Servicing Fee and the Seller shall be entitled to recover the Seller Remittance Amount, to the extent not remitted, out of Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, REO Disposition Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds or other amounts on deposit in the Custodial Account, to the extent permitted in Section 3.04 and out of amounts derived from the operation and sale of an REO Property to the extent permitted by Section 3.17.

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 thereof except as specifically provided for herein.

Section 5.04.

Annual Audit Report.

On or before February 28 of each year, beginning with February 28, 2005, the Servicer shall, at its own expense, cause a firm of independent public accountants (who may also render other services to the Servicer), which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, to furnish to the Master Servicer and the party required to provide a certification directly to the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) pursuant to Sarbanes-Oxley (as defined below) (the “Sarbanes Certifying Party”) to the effect that such firm has examined certain documents and records relating to the servicing of mortgage loans similar in nature to the Mortgage Loans and that such firm is of the opinion that the provisions of this or similar Agreements have been complied with, and that, on the basis of such examination conducted substantial ly in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers (or such other attestation program as may be required by applicable law or regulation), nothing has come to their attention which would indicate that such servicing has not been conducted in compliance therewith, except for (i) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial, and (ii) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such statement.  The Seller shall cause the Depositor to provide a copy of such report to the Trustee.  By providing the Master Servicer and the Sarbanes Certifying Party a copy of a Uniform Single Attestation Program Report (and/or such other reports as may be required by applicable law or regulation) from their independent public accountants on an annual basis, the Servicer shall be considered to have fulfilled its obligations under this Section 5.04.

Section 5.05.

Annual Officer’s Certificate.

(a)

The Servicer shall deliver to the Master Servicer and the Sarbanes Certifying Party, on or before February 28, each year beginning February 28, 2005, (i) an Officer’s Certificate, stating that (1) a review of the activities of the Servicer during the preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement or similar agreements has been made under such officer’s supervision, and (2) 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 or (ii) such other certificates as may be required under applicable law or regulation.  The Seller shall cause the Depositor to provide a copy of such report to the Trustee.

(b)

For so long as a certificate under the Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002, as amended, (“Sarbanes-Oxley”) is required to be given on behalf of the Trust Fund, no later than February 28 of each year, beginning February 28, 2005, (or if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), or at any other time that the Sarbanes Certifying Party provides a certification pursuant to Sarbanes-Oxley, and upon thirty (30) days’ written request of such certifying party, an officer of the Servicer shall execute and deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Sarbanes Certifying Party for the benefit of the Trust Fund and such Sarbanes Certifying Party, its officers, directors and affiliates, in the form of Exhibit E hereto or as may be required by applicable law or regulation.


(c)

The Servicer shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer, the Depositor and their respective officers, directors, agents and affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach by the Servicer or any of its officers, directors, agents or affiliates of its obligations under this Section 5.05 or the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Servicer in connection therewith. If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless the Master Servicer and/or the Depositor, then the Servicer agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Master Servicer and/or the Depositor as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Master Servicer and /or the Depositor in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Master Servicer and/or the Depositor on the one hand and the Servicer on the other in connection with a breach of the Servicer’s obligations under this Section 5.05 or the Servicer’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

Section 5.06.

Inspection.

(e)

No Litigation Pending.  There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or threatened against the Servicer which, 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 Servicer, or in any material impairment of the right or ability of the Servicer to carry on its business substantially as now conducted, or in any material liability on the part of the Servicer, or which would draw into question the validity of this Agreement or of any action taken or to be taken in connection with the obligations of the Servicer contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Servicer to perform under the terms of this Agreement;

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 shall survive the engagement of the Servicer to perform the servicing responsibilities as of the related Closing Date or Servicing Transfer Date, as applicable, hereunder and the delivery of the Servicing Files to the Servicer and shall inure to the benefit of the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Trustee.  Upon discovery by either the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects the ability of the Servicer to perform its duties and obligations under this Agreement or otherwise materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans, the Mortgaged Property or the priority of the security interest on such Mortgaged Property or the inte rests of the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other.

Section 6.03.

Additional Indemnification by the Servicer.  

The Servicer shall indemnify the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer and hold them harmless against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses (collectively, the “Liabilities”) that the indemnified party may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Servicer to perform its duties and service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement (including, but not limited to its obligation to provide the certification pursuant to Section 5.05 hereunder) or for any inaccurate or misleading information provided in the certification pursuant to Section 5.05. The Servicer shall immediately notify the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Trustee, the Securities Administrator or the NIMS Insurer if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans that may result in such Liabilities, and the Servicer shall assume (with the prior written consent of the indemnified party) the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or any indemnified party in respect of such claim and follow any written instructions received from the such indemnified party in connection with such claim.  The Servicer shall be reimbursed promptly from the Trust Fund for all amounts advanced by it pursuant to the preceding sentence except when the claim is in any way related to the Servicer’s indemnification pursuant to Section 6.02, or the failure of the Servicer to service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.  In the event a dispute arises between the Servicer and an indemnified party with respect to any of the rights and obligations of the parties pursuant to this Agreement, and such dispute is adjudicated in a court of law, by an arbitration panel or any other judicial process, then the losing party (if the Trustee, then the Trust Fund) shall indemnify and reimburse the winning party for all attorney’s fees and other costs and expenses related to the adjudication of said dispute.

Section 6.04.

Indemnification with Respect to Certain Taxes and Loss of REMIC Status.

In the event that any REMIC fails to qualify as a REMIC, loses its status as a REMIC, or incurs federal, state or local taxes as a result of a prohibited transaction or prohibited contribution under the REMIC Provisions due to the negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, the Servicer shall indemnify the Holder of the related Residual Certificate, the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the Trust Fund and the NIMS Insurer against any and all losses, claims, damages, liabilities or expenses (“Losses”) resulting from such negligence; provided, however, that the Servicer shall not be liable for any such Losses attributable to the action or inaction of the Trustee, the Master Servicer, the Depositor or the Holder of such Residual Certificate, as applicable, nor for any such Losses resulting from misinformation provided by the Holder of such Residual Certificate on which the Servicer has relied.  The foregoing shall not be deemed to limit or restrict the rights and remedies of the Holder of such Residual Certificate, the Trustee and the Trust Fund or the NIMS Insurer now or hereafter existing at law or in equity or otherwise.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, however, in no event shall the Servicer have any liability (1) for any action or omission that is taken in accordance with and in compliance with the express terms of, or which is expressly permitted by the terms of, this Agreement, (2) for any Losses other than arising out of a negligent performance by the Servicer of its duties and obligations set forth herein, (3) for any special or consequential damages to Certificateholders (in addition to payment of principal and interest on the Certificates) and (4) if actions taken by the Servicer are at, and in accordance with, the written request or written approval of the Master Servicer or the Trustee.

Section 6.05.

Any Person into which the Servicer may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Servicer shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Servicer, shall be the successor of the Servicer hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding, provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person shall be an institution (i) having a net worth of not less than $25,000,000, and (ii) which is a Fannie Mae- and Freddie Mac-approved servicer in good standing.

Neither the Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Servicer shall be under any liability to the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Depositor or the Trustee for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Servicer or any such person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in strict compliance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.  The Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability, provided, however, that the Servicer may undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect of this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto.  In such event, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Trust Fund for the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.

Section 7.03.

Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by the Servicer.

This Agreement has been entered into with the Servicer in reliance upon the independent status of the Servicer, and the representations as to the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plant, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing, and the continuance thereof.  Therefore, except as expressly provided in this Section 7.03 and Sections 3.20, 7.01 and 7.04, the Servicer shall neither assign its rights under this Agreement or the servicing hereunder nor delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets without, in each case, the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer which consent, in the case of an assignment of rights or delegation of duties, shall be granted or withheld in the discretio n of the Seller, the Master Servicer, Trustee and the NIMS Insurer and which consent, in the case of a sale or disposition of all or substantially all of the property or assets of the Servicer, shall not be unreasonably withheld by any of them; provided, that in each case, there must be delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing or sale or disposition of assets will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Servicer, without the consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee or the NIMS Insurer, may retain third party contractors to perform certain servicing and loan administration functions, including without limitation, hazard insurance administration, tax payment and administration, flood certification and administrati on, collection services and similar functions; provided, that the retention of such contractors by Servicer shall not limit the obligation of the Servicer to service the Mortgage Loans pursuant to the terms and conditions of this Agreement.

The Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Servicer.  Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance reasonably acceptable to each of them.  No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed the Servicer’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 8.01.

Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 7.03, in the event that the Servicer either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, except to the extent permitted by and in accordance with this Section 7.03 and Sections 3.20, 7.01 and 7.04, without the prior written consent of the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the NIMS Insurer, then such parties shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice given as set forth in Section 8.01, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Servicer or any third party.

(ii)

failure by the Servicer duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Servicer set forth in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of five (5) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Servicer by the Master Servicer or the NIMS Insurer; or

Simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement (a) pursuant to Sections 6.02, 7.03, 8.01 or 8.02(ii), the Master Servicer shall (i) within 90 days of the Servicer’s notice of such termination, succeed to and assume all of the Servicer’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement; or (b) pursuant to a termination under Section 8.02(iii) or Section 8.04, the Seller shall appoint a successor having the characteristics set forth in clauses (i) and (ii) of Section 7.01 and which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Servicer under this Agreement simultaneously with the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement.  Any successor to the Servicer shall be subject to the approval of the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer.  Any approval of a successor servicer by the Master Servicer and the NIMS Insurer and, to the extent required by the Trust Agreement, the Trustee, shall, if the successor servicer is not at that time a servicer of other Mortgage Loans for the Trust Fund, be conditioned upon the receipt by the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer, the Seller and the Trustee of a letter from each Rating Agency to the effect that such transfer of servicing will not result in a qualification, withdrawal or downgrade of the then-current rating of any of the Certificates or the NIM Securities to be issued in the NIMS Transaction.  In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that no such compensation shall be in excess of that permitted the Servicer under this Agreement.  In the event that the Servicer’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned sections, 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 aforementio ned sections shall not become effective until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 9.01 and shall in no event relieve the Servicer of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Sections 6.01 and the remedies available to the Master Servicer, the Trustee, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller under Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Sections 6.01, 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 shall be applicable to the Servicer notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Servicer, or the termination of this Agreement.  Neither the Master Servicer, in its capacity as successor servicer, nor any other successor servicer shall be responsible for the lack of information and/or documents that it cannot otherwise obtain through reasonable efforts.

Within a reasonable period of time, but in no event longer than 90 days following notice of termination pursuant to Section 8.02(iii) or 30 days following notice of termination pursuant to Sections 8.01 or 8.02(ii), the Servicer shall prepare, execute and deliver to the successor entity any and all documents and other instruments, place in such successor’s possession all Servicing Files, and do or cause to be done all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, including but not limited to the transfer of any Mortgage Notes and the related documents.  The Servicer shall cooperate with the Trustee, the Master Servicer or the Seller, as applicable, and such successor in effecting the termination of the Servicer’s responsibilities and rights hereunder and the transfer of servicing responsibilities to th e successor 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 Servicer to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Trustee, the Servicer, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Seller an instrument (i) accepting such appointment, wherein the successor shall make the representations and warranties set forth in Section 6.01 and provide for the same remedies set forth in Sections 6.02, 6.03 and 6.04 herein and (ii) an assumption of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed and observed by the Servicer under this Agreement, 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 termination of this Agreement pursuant to Sec tions 6.02, 7.03, 8.01, 8.02 or 8.04 shall not affect any claims that the Seller, the Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer or the Trustee may have against the Servicer arising out of the Servicer’s actions or failure to act prior to any such termination or resignation.  In addition, in the event any successor servicer is appointed pursuant to Section 8.02(iii) of this Agreement, such successor servicer must satisfy the conditions relating to the transfer of servicing set forth in the Trust Agreement.

The Servicer shall deliver promptly to the successor servicer the funds in the Custodial Account and Escrow Account and all Mortgage Loan documents 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.

Upon a successor’s acceptance of appointment as such, it shall notify the Trustee, the Seller and Master Servicer, the NIMS Insurer and the Depositor of such appointment in accordance with the procedures set forth in Section 9.04.

Costs.

The Seller shall pay the legal fees and expenses of its attorneys.  Costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transfer of the servicing responsibilities, including fees for delivering Servicing Files, shall be paid by (i) the terminated or resigning servicer if such termination or resignation is a result of an occurrence of a termination event under Section 8.01, (ii) the related Seller if such termination is pursuant to Section 8.02(iii) and (iii) in all other cases by the Trust Fund.  Subject to Section 2.02, the Seller, on behalf of the Depositor, shall pay the costs associated with the preparation, delivery and recording of Assignments of Mortgages by the Seller or the Seller’s designee.

(iii)

I am responsible for reviewing the activities performed by the Servicer under the relevant servicing agreements and based upon the review required by the relevant servicing agreements, and except as disclosed in the Annual Statement of Compliance, the Annual Independent Public Accountant’s Servicing Report and all servicing reports, officer’s certificates and other information relating to the servicing of the Mortgage Loans submitted to the Sarbanes Certifying Party, the Servicer has, as of the date of this certification fulfilled its obligations under the relevant servicing agreements; and

Subject

“Full-File” Reporting to Credit Repositories




Part IV, Section 107, of the servicing Guide currently requires servicers to report only 90-day delinquencies to the four major credit repositories.  To ensure that the repositories have up-to-date information for both servicing and origination activity, we have decided to begin requiring -- as of the month ending March 31, 1996 -- servicers to provide the credit repositories a “full-file” status report for the mortgages they service for us.

“Full-file” reporting requires that servicers submit a monthly report to each of the credit repositories to describe the exact status for each mortgage they service for us.  The status reported generally should be the one in effect as of the last business day of each month.  Servicers may, however, use a slightly later cut-off date -- for example, at the and of the first week of a month -- to assure that payment corrections, returned checks, and other adjustments related to the previous month’s activity can be appropriately reflected in their report for that month.  Statuses that must be reported for any given mortgage include the following: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, and charged-off.  (The credit repositories will provide the applicable codes for reporting these statuses to them.)  A listing of each of the majo r repositories to which “full-file” status reports must be sent is attached.


Servicers are responsible for the complete and accurate reporting of mortgage status information to the repositories and for resolving any disputes that arise about the information they report.  Servicers must respond promptly to any inquiries from borrowers regarding specific mortgage status information about them that was reported to the credit repositories.


Servicers should contact their Customer Account Team in their lead Fannie Mae regional office if they have any questions about this expanded reporting requirement.

Definitions


1.1

Application means a request for coverage, including assumption of coverage, under this Policy for a Loan on a form or in a format provided by the Company, and all other statements, documents or information furnished to the Company by the Insured or any other Person in connection with the insuring of the Loan.  An application will include information, if so furnished to the Company, contained in the Borrower's Loan application, appraisal, verifications of income and deposit, plans and specifications for the Property, and all other exhibits and documents, and will include all data and information so furnished by electronic means.


1.2

Appropriate Proceedings means any legal or administrative action by the Insured affecting either a Loan or title to a Property, including:


a.

Preserving a deficiency recovery by making a bid at the foreclosure sale and pursuing a deficiency judgment until the end of the Settlement Period, where appropriate and permissible and where directed by the Company; or


b.

Enforcing the terms of the Loan as allowed by the laws where the Property is located; or


c.

Acquiring Borrower's Title or Good and Merchantable Title to the Property, as either may be required under this Policy, but excluding such title as may be acquired by a voluntary conveyance from the Borrower; or


d.

Asserting the Insured's interest in the Property in a Borrower's bankruptcy.


1.3

Borrower means any Person legally obligated to repay the debt obligation created by a Loan, including any co signer or guarantor of the Loan.


1.4

Borrower's Title means such title to a Property as was vested in the Borrower at the time of a conveyance to the Insured arising out of or pursuant to a foreclosure of the Loan; provided, however, if the Insured so elects, the redemption period need not have expired.  Borrower's Title in the Insured may be, but need not be the equivalent of Good and Merchantable Title, and the deed evidencing Borrower's Title need not be recorded unless required by applicable law.


1.5

Certificate means the document, which may be on the same form as the Commitment, issued by the Company pursuant to this Policy and extending the coverage indicated therein to a specified Loan.


1.6

Certificate Effective Date means, as specified in the Certificate, (a) the closing date of a Loan, or (b) the later date requested by the Insured and accepted by the Company.








1.7

Claim means the timely filed written request, made on a form or in a format provided or approved by the Company, to receive the benefits of this Policy.


1.8

Claim Amount means the amount calculated in accordance with Section 6.2 of this Policy.


1.9

Commitment means the document, which may be on the same form as the Certificate, issued by the Company evidencing the Company's offer to insure the Loan identified therein, subject to the terms and conditions therein and in this Policy.


1.10

Default means the failure by a Borrower (a) to pay when due an amount equal to or greater than one (1) monthly regular periodic payment due under the terms of a Loan or (b) to pay all amounts due on acceleration of the Loan by the Insured after breach by the Borrower of a due on sale provision in the Loan, granting the Insured the right to accelerate the Loan upon transfer of title to, or an interest in, the Property and to institute Appropriate Proceedings.  Violation by the Borrower of any other term or condition of the Loan which is a basis for Appropriate Proceedings shall not be considered to be a Default.


A Loan is deemed to be in Default for that month as of the close of business on the installment due date for which a scheduled monthly payment has not been made or as of the close of business on the due date stated in the notice of acceleration given pursuant to the due-on-sale provision in the Loan.  The Loan will be considered to remain in Default until filing of a Claim so long as such periodic payment has not been made or such basis for Appropriate Proceedings remains.  For example, a Loan is "four (4) months in Default" if the monthly installments due on January 1 through April 1 remain unpaid as of the close of business on April 1 or if a basis for acceleration and Appropriate Proceedings exists for a continuous period of four months.


1.11

Environmental Condition means the presence of environmental contamination, including nuclear reaction or radioactive waste, toxic waste, or poisoning, contamination or pollution of earth or water subjacent to the Property or of the atmosphere above the Property; or the presence, on or under a Property, of any "Hazardous Substance" as that term is defined by the federal Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act (42 U.S.C. Sec. 9601 et. seq., as amended from time to time) or as defined by any similar state law, or of any "Hazardous Waste" or "Regulated Substance" as those terms are defined by the federal Resource Conservation and Recovery Act (42 U.S.C. sec. 6901, et seq., as amended from time to time) or as defined by any similar state law.  Environmental Condition does not mean the presence of radon, lead paint, or asbes tos.








1.12

Good and Merchantable Title means title to a Property free and clear of all liens, encumbrances, covenants, conditions, restrictions, easements and rights of







redemption, except for any of the following or as permitted in writing by the Company:


a.

Any lien established by public bond, assessment or tax, when no installment, call or payment of or under such bond, assessment or tax is delinquent;


b.

Any municipal and zoning ordinances and exceptions to title waived by the regulations of federal mortgage insurers and guarantors with respect to mortgages on one to four family residences in effect on the date on which the Loan was closed and all documents were executed; and


c.

Any other impediments which will not have a materially adverse effect on either the transferability of the Property or the sale thereof to a bona fide purchaser.


Good and Merchantable Title will not exist if (i) there is any lien pursuant to the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation, and Liability Act, or similar federal or state law, as in effect from time to time, providing for liens in connection with the removal and clean-up of environmental conditions, or if notice has been given of commencement of proceedings which could result in such a lien, or (ii) there are limitations on ingress and egress to the Property or on use of utilities.  Any action or proceeding after a foreclosure sale relating to establishing a deficiency judgment will not be considered in determining whether the Insured has acquired Good and Merchantable Title.


1.13

Insured means:


a.

The Person designated on the face of this Policy; or


b.

Any Person to whom coverage has been assigned resulting in a change in the Insured named on a Certificate in accordance with this Policy.


The Insured must be the Servicer of a Loan or, if there is no Servicer, the Owner of the Loan.


1.14

Loan means any note, bond, or other evidence of indebtedness secured by a mortgage, deed of trust, or other similar instrument, which constitutes or is equivalent to a first lien or charge on a Property and which the Company has approved for insurance and to which coverage under this Policy has been extended.


1.15

Loss means the liability of the Company with respect to a Loan for payment of a Perfected Claim which is calculated in accordance with Section 6.3.  A Loss will be deemed to have occurred when a Default on a Loan occurs, even though the amount of Loss is not then either presently ascertainable or due and payable.


1.16

Owner or Owner of the Loan means the Person who owns a Loan and of whom the Company is notified in accordance with this Policy.








1.17

Perfected Claim means a Claim received by the Company which contains all information or proof required by the Company and for which all requirements of this Policy applicable to payment of a Claim are satisfied.  


1.18

Person means any individual, corporation, partnership, association or other entity.


1.19

Physical Damage means any tangible injury to a Property, whether caused by accident, natural occurrence, or any other reason, including damage caused by defects in construction, land subsidence, earth movement or slippage, fire, flood, earthquake, riot, vandalism or any Environmental Condition.


1.20

Policy means this contract of insurance and all Applications, Commitments, endorsements, schedules, and Certificates, which are incorporated in this Policy, related to Loans insured under this Policy.

1.24

Servicer means that Person acting on behalf of the Owner of a Loan (or on behalf of the Owner's designee, if any) to service the Loan and of whom the Company has been notified.  The Servicer acts as a representative of the Owner of the Loan (and the Owner's designee, if any) and will bind the Owner and its designee for all purposes of this Policy, including providing information to the Company, receiving any notices, paying premiums, accepting Loss payments, and performing any other acts under this Policy.  References in this Policy to a Servicer's obligations will not be construed as relieving the Owner or its designee of responsibility for the Servicer's performance.


1.25

Settlement Period means the sixty (60) day period as determined under Section 6.4, at the end of which a Loss is payable by the Company; provided that if the Company pays a Loss prior to expiration of such sixty (60) day period, the Settlement Period ends with such payment.


1.26

Value means the lesser of the sales price of a Property (only applicable in the case of a Loan to finance the purchase of such Property) or appraised value of the Property as set forth in the Certificate.

2

Obtaining Coverage and Payment of Premiums


2.1

Application and Certificate__ In order to insure a Loan under this Policy, the Insured or a Person acting on behalf of the Insured must submit to the Company a properly completed Application.  Approval of any Application will be at the discretion of the Company and will be in the form of a Commitment or a Certificate which offers to extend, or extends coverage under the terms and conditions of both this Policy and the Commitment or Certificate, as the case may be.


In lieu of such an Application and supporting statements, documents and information submitted to the Company in connection with insuring a Loan, the Company may accept an alternative form of Application, containing more limited information, including certifications by or on behalf of the Insured as to characteristics of a Loan in lieu of supporting statements, documents and information.  The Company shall be entitled to fully rely on such alternative Application as submitted.  Use of an alternative form of Application shall not waive or change the other terms and conditions of this Policy under which a Loan is insured or the responsibility of the Insured for the accuracy of statements, documents and information submitted by it or other Persons to the Company as provided in this Policy.


If the Company declines to approve a mortgage loan, it will not issue a Commitment or Certificate, and it will notify the Insured in writing of such declination.  If the Insured or the Person acting on its behalf subsequently denies the mortgage loan application which it received from the applicant, the Insured or such Person will be responsible for notifying the applicant that the Company declined to approve the mortgage loan.  Such notification will be made in compliance with any applicable state or federal laws or regulations, including the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and any other similar law or regulation.


2.2

Representations of the Insured __ The Insured represents that:


a.

all statements made and information provided to the Company in an Application or in any Commitment or Certificate (including as such is related to continuation of coverage upon assumption of a Loan), whether by it, the Borrower, or any other Person, have been made and presented for and on behalf of the Insured; and








b.

such statements and information are not false or misleading in any material respect as of the date(s) on which they are made or provided and do not omit any fact necessary in order to make such statements and information not false or misleading in any material respect as of such date(s).








It is understood and agreed that such statements and information in the aggregate are, and in certain instances individually may be, material to the Company's decision to offer, provide or so continue coverage of the related Loan; the Company issues the related Commitment and Certificate or continues coverage in reliance on the accuracy and completeness of such statements and information and without any obligation to independently verify the statements and information submitted to it; and the Company's reliance on the representations in Section 2.2(a) and (b) above survive the issuance of a Commitment and Certificate or such continuation of coverage.


Without otherwise limiting the scope of this Section 2.2, a breach of Section 4.8 relating to down payment will be deemed a material misrepresentation for purposes of this Section 2.2.  The foregoing representations shall be effective whether or not they are made by the Insured or other Person with the intent to deceive or mislead, or with the knowledge that they are not true and correct.


2.3

Company's Remedies for Misrepresentation__ Subject to Section 2.4, if any of the Insured's representations as described in Section 2.2 are materially false or misleading with respect to a Loan, the Company will have at its option, the right to defend against a Claim, or to the extent permitted by applicable law, to cancel or rescind coverage under any Certificate retroactively to commencement of coverage (or if the misrepresentation occurs with respect to continuation of coverage upon assumption of a Loan, to so defend, cancel or rescind retroactively to the date of such continuation). In the case of such cancellation or rescission, the Company shall return at that time all paid premiums retroactively to such applicable date.


2.4

Incontestability for Certain Misrepresentations__ Notwithstanding Sections 2.2 or 2.3, no Claim for Loss will be denied or adjusted, nor will the Certificate's coverage be rescinded or canceled, by reason of any misrepresentations (whether by statements made or omitted) contained in an Application, provided that all of the following requirements, conditions and circumstances, to the extent not waived in writing at the option of the Company, are satisfied:


a.

The misrepresentation must not have been knowingly made, or knowingly participated in, by:


1.

The Insured or any other Person which originated the Loan; or


2.

Any other of the following Persons:


i)

correspondent lender, mortgage loan broker or other intermediary underwriting or processing the Loan on behalf of the Insured or any other Person which originated the Loan; or








ii)

escrow or closing agents, or any other agent of, or broker for, the Insured or any other Person which originated the Loan acting with respect to the Loan or the related Property transaction.


b.

The Borrower must have made twelve (12) consecutive full installment payments of principal, interest and impound or escrow amounts in the amounts as called for by the Loan, and all of those payments must have been made from the Borrower's own funds.


A payment will be considered to be "consecutive" only if it is made prior to the date the next scheduled installment becomes due.  The "Borrower's own funds" will include any funds used by the Borrower for the purpose of making installment payments, but will not include funds provided directly or indirectly by any Person (other than the Borrower) who is or was a party to the Loan or to the related Property transaction, unless expressly set forth in the Application.


c.

This Section 2.4 will not apply to a Certificate if within twelve (12) months before or after a material misrepresentation by a Borrower or other Person (other than those Persons identified in Section 2.4(a)), there are one or more material misrepresentations in an Application (i) with respect to three (3) or more other mortgage loans insured at any time by the Company for the Insured or any other lender and (ii) which result from the direct or indirect acts or omissions of the same Borrower or same other Person (including any other Person acting directly or indirectly in concert).


d.

This Section 2.4 shall not be construed to limit the applicability of Section 4.4(b) to a misrepresentation which is subject to this Section 2.4.


e.

The Company's payment of a Claim will not limit any rights which the Company has against the Borrower or any other Person (other than the Insured) for any misrepresentation.


2.5

Initial Premium and Term of Coverage


a.

Within fifteen (15) days from the Certificate Effective Date, or such other date as the Company and the Insured may agree to in writing, the Insured must forward to the Company the appropriate initial premium.  Payment of the initial premium shall be a condition precedent to coverage being extended to the Loan.  Subject to cancellation by the Insured or the Company as provided in this Policy, coverage shall remain in full force and effect for the period covered by the initial premium.  Tender of the initial premium will constitute a representation for purposes of Section 2.2 by the Insured that any special conditions included by the Company in the related Commitment have been satisfied and that no payment which is then due under the Loan is more than thirty (30) days past due.








b.

The Company will not rescind or cancel coverage, or deny or adjust a Claim for Loss, with respect to a Loan on the basis of a failure to satisfy a special condition (other than a special condition relating to completion of construction, as described in Section 4.3 or to rehabilitation or repairs) if the Borrower has made twenty-four (24) consecutive full installment payments from the Borrower's own funds.  The terms "installment payments," "consecutive," and "Borrower's own funds" shall have the meanings provided in Section 2.4(b).


2.6

Renewal of Certificate and Termination for Non Payment of Renewal Premium; Reinstatement of Terminated Coverage


a.

The Company must give the Insured prior notice of the due date for payment of the applicable renewal premium payable for continued coverage of each Certificate.  The entire renewal premium must be paid within a forty five (45) day grace period (or such longer grace period generally allowed by the Company) after the due date for payment.  Upon payment of the entire renewal premium within such grace period, the Certificate will be deemed renewed for the applicable renewal period and a Default occurring within said grace period which is not cured, and which results in a Claim being filed, will be covered.


If a Default occurs prior to the date through which the applicable premium has been paid, and if such Default is not cured and results in a Claim being filed, such Default shall remain covered and no further premium shall be due in order to maintain coverage of such Default.


With respect to a Loan with renewal premiums due on an annual basis, if the annual renewal premium is not paid within such grace period (but subject to the Owner's right to cure non-payment as provided in (b) of this Section 2.6), the coverage of the Certificate and the Company's liability will terminate effective as of 12:01 a.m. on the first day following the date through which the applicable premium has been paid and as a result, any Default occurring after the date through which the applicable premium has been paid will not be covered.


With respect to a Loan with renewal premiums due on a monthly basis, if the monthly renewal premium is not paid within such grace period (but subject to the Owner's right to cure non-payment as provided in (b) of this Section 2.6), the coverage of the Certificate and the Company's liability will terminate as of 12:01 a.m. on the first day following the date through which the applicable monthly premium has been paid, except that if a Default on the Loan occurs between the last date through which the applicable monthly renewal premium has been paid and the end of such grace period, the Insured shall not be required to pay renewal premiums, and coverage of such Default will continue, while such Default exists.  If such Default is cured, all monthly renewal premiums not paid during the period of Default shall be payable (unless previously paid by the Insured) within forty-five (45) days or such longer period generally allowed by the Company after notice from the Company in order to continue coverage.  If such Default is







not cured and results in a Claim, the unpaid monthly renewal premiums through the renewal month in which such Default occurred shall be paid as provided in Section 6.3 by deduction from the Loss.


b.

If there occurs a transfer of servicing rights for a group of Loans to a new Servicer, a seizure of servicing rights by the Owner of such Loans, or a Servicer's surrender to the Owner of such servicing rights and if:


1.

the Company terminates coverage on one or more of such Loans for nonpayment of the renewal premium; and the grace period for payment of the renewal premium provided for in Section 2.6 (a) expired after such transfer, seizure or surrender;


2.

either the Owner of such Loans on which coverage was terminated, or the new Servicer for such Loans, certifies in writing to the Company within sixty (60) days after expiration of such grace period, that all of such Loans were serviced for the Owner at the time of nonpayment of renewal premium; and that in good faith it believes that the failure to pay the renewal premium on all such Loans was an error or omission caused by such transfer, seizure or surrender of servicing; and


3.

either the Owner or the new Servicer of such Loans pays the entire amount of renewal premiums due and unpaid on all such Loans within such sixty day period; then


upon satisfaction of all of the foregoing conditions, the Company shall reinstate coverage on such Loans retroactively to the effective date of termination of coverage, under all of the terms and conditions in effect at termination and as if there had been no lapse in coverage.


2.7

Special Procedures for Certification of Coverage; Payment of Initial and Renewal Premiums


a.

The Company may permit coverage of a Loan to be certified and become effective without the Insured's return of an executed Commitment or Certificate, but coverage will only become effective if within fifteen (15) days after the Certificate Effective Date (or such longer period as the Company may allow) the Insured provides the Company with the Certificate Effective Date and other information required by the Company, and pays the required premium.  If signature and return of an executed Commitment or Certificate is not required, the Insured will nevertheless be automatically deemed to have made all certifications, representations and statements attributable to it in the form of the Commitment or Certificate, as though, and to the same extent as if, the Insured had executed and returned the Commitment or Certificate.








b.

The Insured acknowledges that the Company deposits initial and renewal premium checks immediately upon receipt and agrees that the receipt and deposit of a premium check by the Company after the time specified in this Policy for receipt, does not constitute a waiver of the requirements of this Policy for timely receipt or an acceptance of premium by the Company.  The Company will have the right to return such late premium payment, but only within sixty (60) days after receipt, in which case coverage will be cancelled retroactively to the Certificate Effective Date for a late initial premium, or to the last day of the period covered by the previous premium payment for a late renewal premium.  Receipt, deposit and retention of a premium check will not constitute a waiver of any defenses with respect to any other matters which the Company may have under this Policy.


2.8

Cancellation by the Insured of a Certificate__ The Insured may obtain cancellation of a Certificate by returning the Certificate to the Company or making a written request to the Company for cancellation.  Upon receipt, the Company will refund, where applicable, a portion of the premium paid in accordance with the appropriate cancellation schedule which is either attached to this Policy or which will be provided by the Company to the Insured upon request.  However, no refund on a Certificate will be paid if the Loan is in Default on the date the Company receives the request.  Cancellation of a Certificate will not cancel this Policy.


2.9

Cancellation of Policy__ Either the Insured or the Company may cancel their respective right or obligation to receive or issue new Commitments or Certificates under this Policy by providing thirty (30) days' written notice of cancellation of this Policy.  However, Commitments and Certificates issued prior to such cancellation of this Policy will continue in force so long as all premiums are paid and all other terms and conditions of this Policy for coverage are complied with by the Insured.


2.10

Relationship Among the Company, the Owner of a Loan, and the Servicer of a Loan__ The Company will be entitled to assume that the Insured identified on this Policy and under a Certificate is the Owner of the Loan.  If the Company receives written notice acceptable to it that there is an Owner of the Loan who is not the Insured, the Company shall identify that Owner in its internal records and for purposes of this Policy.  The Company shall be required to identify only one Owner for a Loan at any one time.


The Company will provide the Owner of a Loan so identified in its records with an opportunity to cure  non payment of renewal premium, as provided under Section 2.6; will notify such Owner of the Loan of a non-approved Servicer and allow replacement with a new Servicer, as provided under Section 4.5; will allow the Owner (or its designee, if any) to replace a Servicer and allow the replacement Servicer to become the Insured under Section 1.13; and will allow the Owner to become the Insured under Section 1.13 if the Owner services the Loan itself.  Any Person becoming an Insured under this Policy shall be subject to all of the terms and conditions of this Policy to the same extent as any previous Insured hereunder and







without regard to the extent of the knowledge or responsibility of such Person, relating to matters occurring before such Person became an Insured.


2.11

Refund of Premium for Denial of Claim in Full__ If, because of a provision in Sections 2, 3 or 4 (other than Sections 4.3, 4.6, or 4.7), no Loss is payable to the Insured, the Company shall return to the Insured all paid premiums retroactively and pro rata to the date when the event or circumstance occurred which resulted in no Loss being payable.


3

Changes in Various Loan Terms, Servicing and Owner; Co ordination and Duplication of Insurance Benefits


3.1

Loan Modifications__ Unless advance written approval is provided by, or obtained from, the Company, the Insured may not make any change in the terms of a Loan, including the borrowed amount, interest rate, term or amortization schedule of the Loan, except as permitted by terms of the Loan; nor make any change in the Property or other collateral securing the Loan; nor release the Borrower from liability on a Loan.


3.2

Open End Provisions__ The Insured may increase the principal balance of a Loan, provided that the written approval of the Company has been obtained.  The Insured will pay the Company the additional premium due at the then prevailing premium rate.


3.3

Assumptions__ If a Loan is assumed with the Insured's approval, the Company's liability for coverage under its Certificate will terminate as of the date of such assumption, unless the Company approves the assumption in writing.  The Company will not unreasonably withhold approval of an assumption.  It is understood that coverage will continue, and that the restriction of this Section 3.3 will not apply, if under the Loan or applicable law the Insured cannot exercise a "due on sale" clause or is obligated to consent to such assumption under the Loan or applicable law.


3.4

Change of Servicing__ If the servicing rights for a Loan are sold, assigned or transferred by the Insured or the Owner, coverage of the Loan hereunder will continue provided that written notice of the new Servicer is given to the Company and the new Servicer is approved in writing by the Company.  The Company shall be automatically deemed to have approved as a Servicer any person to whom the Company has issued a master policy, which has not been cancelled, providing for residential mortgage guaranty insurance.


3.5

Change of Owner__ If a Loan or a participation in a Loan is sold, assigned or transferred by its Owner, coverage of the Loan will continue, subject to all of the terms and conditions contained in this Policy.   The new Owner of the Loan will be identified in the Company's records from the date that the Company receives written notice thereof.  In the case of the sale of a participation in a Loan, the Company shall







be notified of only one new Owner.  If there is new ownership, the Loan must continue to be serviced by a Person approved by the Company as a Servicer.


3.6

Co-ordination and Duplication of Insurance Benefits__ The coverage under this Policy shall be excess over any other insurance which may apply to the Property or to the Loan, except for mortgage guaranty pool insurance or supplemental or second tier mortgage insurance.


4

Exclusions From Coverage


The Company will not be liable for, and this Policy will not apply to, extend to or cover the following:


4.1

Balloon Payment__ Any Claim arising out of or in connection with the failure of the Borrower to make any payment of principal and/or interest due under a Loan, (a) as a result of the Insured exercising its right to call the Loan (other than when the Loan is in Default) or because the term of the Loan is shorter than the amortization period, and (b) which is for an amount more than twice the regular periodic payments of principal and interest that are set forth in the Loan (commonly referred to as a "balloon payment").  This exclusion will not apply if the Insured, the Owner of the Loan, or other Person acting on either's behalf offers the Borrower, in writing, a renewal or extension of the Loan or a new loan which (i) constitutes a first lien, (ii) is at rates and terms generally prevailing in the marketplace (but otherwise subject to Section 3.1), (iii) is in an amou nt not less than the then outstanding principal balance, (iv) has no decrease in the amortization period, and (v) is offered regardless of whether the Borrower is then qualified under the Insured's or Owner's underwriting standards.  This exclusion also will not apply if the Borrower is notified of the availability of such renewal or extension of the Loan or new loan and does not accept the renewal, extension or new loan.


4.2

Effective Date__ Any Claim resulting from a Default existing at the Certificate Effective Date or occurring after lapse or cancellation of a Certificate.


4.3

Incomplete Construction__ Any Claim when, as of the date of such Claim, construction of a Property is not completed in accordance with the construction plans and specifications upon which the appraisal of the Property at origination of the Loan was based.


4.4

Fraud, Misrepresentation and Negligence__ (a) Any Claim not otherwise within the scope of Section 2.3 where there was fraud or misrepresentation by the Insured with respect to the Loan, and the fraud or misrepresentation (1) materially contributed to the Default resulting in such Claim; or (2) increased the Loss, except that if the Company can reasonably determine the amount of such increase, such Claim will not be excluded, but the Loss will be reduced to the extent of such amount.








(b) Any Claim where there was negligence by the Insured with respect to the Loan, which (1) was material to either the acceptance of the risk or the hazard assumed by the Company; (2) materially contributed to the Default resulting in such Claim; or (3) increased the Loss, except that if the Company can reasonably determine the amount of such increase, such Claim will not be excluded, but the Loss will be reduced to the extent of such amount.


4.5

Non Approved Servicer__ Any Claim occurring when the Servicer, at time of Default or thereafter, is not approved in writing or in a list published by the Company; provided that this exclusion shall only apply if the Company notifies the Owner of the Loan in writing if a Servicer is no longer approved and if within ninety (90) days thereafter the Owner does not complete a transfer of servicing to a new Servicer approved by the Company.


4.6

Physical Damage (Other than Relating to Pre-Existing Environmental Conditions)__ Any Claim where, at any time after the Certificate Effective Date, Physical Damage to a Property (of a type other than as described in Section 4.7 and other than reasonable wear and tear), occurs or manifests itself subject to the following provisions:


a.

This exclusion will not apply if the Company in good faith determines that the aggregate cost of restoring all such Physical Damage is less than fifteen hundred dollars ($1,500), or such higher amount as the Company may provide from time to time.


b.

This exclusion will apply only if such Physical Damage occurred or manifested itself (1) prior to expiration of the Settlement Period and the Company elects to acquire the related Property in settlement of a Claim; or (2) prior to the Default and was the most important cause of the Default and the Property was either uninsured for loss arising from such Physical Damage or was insured for an amount which, disregarding normal and customary deductibles not to exceed fifteen hundred dollars ($1,500) or such higher amount as the Company may provide from time to time, was insufficient to restore the Property as provided in paragraph (c) below.


c.

The exclusion resulting from paragraph (b) will not apply if the Property is restored in a timely and diligent manner to its condition (except reasonable wear and tear) as of the Certificate Effective Date.  In lieu of requiring restoration of the Property, the Company may, at its option, reduce the Claim Amount by an amount equal to the cost of such restoration.


d.

For purposes of this Section 4.6, the Property subject to restoration will consist only of the land, improvements or personal property deemed part of the real property under applicable law; and chattel items affixed to the real property and identified in the appraisal of the Property at the time the Loan was made, whether or not they are deemed part of the real property.








e.

Cost estimates relied upon by the Company in connection with this Section 4.6 shall be provided in writing by an independent party selected by the Company.  The Company will furnish the Insured with any such written cost estimates, if requested by the Insured.


4.7

Pre Existing Environmental Conditions__ Any Claim where there is an Environmental Condition which existed on the Property (whether or not known by the Person submitting an Application for coverage of the Loan) as of the Certificate Effective Date, subject to the following provisions:


a.

This exclusion will not apply if the existence of such Environmental Condition, or the suspected existence of such Environmental Condition, was specifically disclosed to the Company in the Application relating to the Property.


b.

This exclusion will apply only if such Environmental Condition (1) was a principal cause of the Default, and (2) has made the principal Residential structure on the Property uninhabitable.  A structure will be considered "uninhabitable" if generally recognized standards for residential occupancy are violated or if, in the absence of such standards, a fully informed and reasonable person would conclude that such structure was not safe to live in without fear of injury to health or safety.


c.

This exclusion will not apply if the Environmental Condition is removed or remedied in a timely and diligent manner in accordance with applicable governmental standards for safe residential occupancy.


4.8

Down Payment__ Any Claim involving a Loan which is for the purchase of the Property, and for which the Borrower did not make a down payment as described in the Application.  


4.9

First Lien Status__ Any Claim, if the mortgage, deed of trust or other similar instrument executed by the Borrower and insured hereunder did not provide the Insured at origination with a first lien on the Property.


4.10

Breach of the Insured's Obligations or Failure to Comply with Terms__ Any Claim involving or arising out of any breach by the Insured of its obligations under, or its failure to comply with the terms of, this Policy or of its obligations as imposed by operation of law, if the breach or failure:


a.

Materially contributed to the Default resulting in such Claim; or


b.

Except for a breach described in Section 2.3, increased the Loss; provided that if the Company can reasonably determine the amount of such increase, such Claim will not be excluded, but the Loss will be reduced to the extent of such amount.








5

Conditions Precedent to Payment of Claim


It is a condition precedent to the Company's obligation to pay a Loss that the Insured comply with all of the following requirements:


5.1

Notice of Default__ The Insured must give the Company written notice:


a.

Within forty five (45) days of the Default, if it occurs when the first payment is due under the Loan; or


b.

Within ten (10) days of either


1.

The date when the Borrower becomes four (4) months in Default on the Loan; or


2.

The date when any Appropriate Proceedings which affect the Loan or the Property or the Insured's or Borrower's interest therein have been started;


whichever occurs first.


5.2

Monthly Reports__ Following a notice of Default on the Loan, the Insured must give the Company monthly reports on forms or in a format acceptable to the Company on the status of the Loan and on the servicing efforts undertaken to remedy the Default.  These monthly reports may be furnished less frequently if allowed in writing by the Company and must continue until the Borrower is no longer in Default, the Appropriate Proceedings terminate, or until the Insured has acquired the Property.


5.3

Company's Option to Accelerate Filing of a Claim__ If the Company so directs, at any time after receiving the Insured's notice of Default, the Insured must file a Claim within twenty (20) days after notice from the Company.  The Company will then make a payment of Loss in accordance with the percentage guaranty option in Section 6.3(b).  Thereafter, following the acquisition of Borrower's Title by the Insured, the Insured will be entitled to file a supplemental Claim at the time prescribed in Section 6.1 in an amount equal to the sum of its advances, less the deductions, all as specified in Section 6.2, to the extent not included in the payment of the initial Claim.  Such supplemental Claim must be paid by the Company in accordance with Section 6.3(b). No interest shall be includable in the Claim Amount under this Section 5.3 after the date that the accelerated claim is filed.  If a Loan for which the Company has paid a Claim is subsequently brought current by the Borrower, the Insured shall refund to the Company the Loss paid by the Company with respect to that Loan.  If the Company exercises its option under this Section 5.3, the Company shall not have the right to direct or participate in a deficiency recovery under Section 7.2.


5.4

Voluntary Conveyance__ The Insured may only accept a conveyance of the Property from the Borrower in lieu of foreclosure or other proceeding if the prior written approval of the Company has been obtained.  Such approval shall not be







considered as an acknowledgement of liability by the Company with respect to such Loan.


5.5

Appropriate Proceedings__ The Insured must begin Appropriate Proceedings no later than when the Loan becomes six (6) months in Default unless the Company provides written instructions that some other action be taken.  Such instructions may be general or applicable only to specific Loans.  The Company reserves the right to direct the Insured to institute Appropriate Proceedings at any time after Default.  When either defending against or bringing Appropriate Proceedings, the Insured must report their status to the Company as reasonably and expeditiously as possible.


In conducting Appropriate Proceedings, the Insured must:


a.

Diligently pursue the Appropriate Proceedings once they have begun;


b.

Apply for the appointment of a receiver and assignment of rents, if permitted by law and requested by the Company;


c.

Furnish the Company with copies of all notices and pleadings filed or required in the Appropriate Proceedings, except as the Company may waive such requirement in writing;


d.

Act and bid at the foreclosure sale in accordance with Section 5.11 so that its ability to preserve, transfer and assign to the Company its rights against the Borrower are not impaired; and so that the rights of the Company under this Policy against the Borrower are fully protected.  Such rights include any rights to obtain a deficiency judgment, subject to the Company's compliance with Sections 7.2 and 7.3 relating to establishing a deficiency; and


e.

When requested by the Company, furnish the Company with a written statement indicating the estimated potential Claim Amount (as computed under Section 6.2) at least fifteen (15) days before the foreclosure sale.


5.6

Mitigation of Damages__ The Insured must actively cooperate with and assist the Company to prevent and mitigate the Loss, including good faith efforts by the Insured to obtain a cure of the Default, collect amounts due under the Loan, inspect and appraise the Property and effectuate the early disposition of the Property.  The Company must administer this Policy in good faith.


5.7

Advances__ The Insured must advance:


a.

Normal and customary hazard insurance premiums and real estate property taxes, in each case as due and payable;


b.

Reasonable and necessary Property protection and preservation expenses approved by the Company at the time the Company reviews the Claim, which







shall not include expenditures to remove an exclusion from coverage under Section 4; and


c.

Reasonable costs to complete Appropriate Proceedings and eviction and moving of occupants, including related court expenses and attorney's fees.


5.8

Claim Information and Other Requirements__ The Insured must provide the Company with:


a.

All information reasonably requested by the Company;


b.

A completed form furnished by or acceptable to the Company for payment of a Claim;


c.

If the Property is not being acquired by the Company:  a copy of an executed trustee's or sheriff's deed (which may be unrecorded) conveying Borrower's Title to the Property to the Insured (or satisfactory evidence that the foreclosure sale has been completed if the Borrower's right of redemption has not expired); or a deed from the Borrower (which may be unrecorded) if a voluntary conveyance has been approved by the Company, conveying to the Insured the title that was required by the Company in the approval of the conveyance.


In the event the most important cause of Default was a circumstance or event which would prevent the Insured from obtaining Good and Merchantable Title, the Insured shall instead provide the Company with evidence described in Section 5.8(d)(2) that it has acquired Good and Merchantable Title to the Property.


d.

If the Property is being acquired by the Company:


1.

a recordable deed in normal and customary form containing the customary warranties and covenants conveying to the Company or its designee Good and Merchantable Title to the Property;


2.

a title insurance policy acceptable to the Company or an attorney's opinion of title acceptable to the Company, confirming that the Insured has and can convey to the Company Good and Merchantable Title to the Property; and


3.

Possession of the Property, but only if the Company has required such Possession in writing.


e.

Access to the Property, if requested by the Company under Section 6.4 (b).


5.9

Acquisition of Borrower's Title Not Required__ The Insured will not be required to acquire Borrower's Title to a Property if (a) the Company approves a sale of the







Property prior to a foreclosure sale and such sale is closed; (b) the Company requires an early Claim filing pursuant to Section 5.3, except that such acquisition will be required as a condition to the Insured's filing of a supplemental Claim; or (c) the Property is acquired by someone other than the Insured at a foreclosure sale, as provided in Section 5.11, or thereafter pursuant to exercise of rights of redemption.


5.10

Sale of a Property by the Insured Before End of Settlement Period  


a.

The Insured must submit to the Company any offer to purchase a Property which it receives after the Company has notified the Insured that it will acquire the Property and before the end of the Settlement Period.  The Company must then promptly notify the Insured that it will either (1) not approve of such offer, in which case the Company's notice to acquire the Property will remain in effect, or (2) approve such offer, in which case the Company's notice of acquisition will remain in effect, if the approved offer does not close as scheduled.  The Insured shall promptly notify the Company if the approved offer does not close as scheduled.


b.

If the Company has not notified the Insured that it will acquire the Property, and if the Company's right to acquire the Property has not expired pursuant to Section 6.5 or has not been waived, the Insured must submit to the Company for approval any offer to purchase the Property which would be acceptable to the Insured.  The Company shall then promptly either approve or not approve such offer.  If the approved offer expires or is terminated, the Company shall be entitled to pay the Loss payable by (1) paying the percentage guaranty option as calculated under Section 6.3(b), or (2) paying the property acquisition settlement option as calculated under Section 6.3(a), and acquiring the Property; but if the Company's right to acquire the Property has expired pursuant to Section 6.5, or been waived, then such acquisition shall be under the same terms and conditions as the expired or ter minated offer, except for terms and conditions relating to the sale price and method of payment of the sale price, which shall instead be governed by Section 6.3.


c.

The following provisions shall apply to offers submitted to the Company under this Section 5.10:


1.

At the time it presents an offer, the Insured must also provide the Company with a good faith estimate of gross proceeds and expenses in sufficient detail for the Company to calculate the estimated net proceeds described below.  The Company may not require any changes to the offer or direct the marketing of the Property or expenditures by the Insured for restoration of the Property as a condition to its approval.


2.

If the Company approves the offer submitted by the Insured, it must also advise the Insured of the estimated net proceeds which it has calculated.  The estimated net proceeds calculated by the Company will be the







estimated gross sales proceeds to be received by the Insured less all reasonable estimated expenses submitted by the Insured and approved by the Company in its approval of the offer which have been or are expected to be paid by the Insured in obtaining and closing the sale of the Property.  If the estimated net proceeds as calculated by the Company is acceptable to the Insured, the Loss payable shall be computed as determined below.  If such calculation is not acceptable to the Insured, the offer shall be deemed to have not been approved by the Company.


3.

If the Company approves the offer, the Loss payable by the Company under this Section 5.10 will be the lesser of (i) the actual net amount as calculated below, or (ii) the percentage guaranty option under Section 6.3(b) without regard to a sale of the Property.  The actual net amount will be the Claim Amount calculated under Section 6.2, except that (a) delinquent interest will be computed through the closing date for sale of the Property and (b) the Claim Amount shall be reduced by the actual net proceeds realized by the Insured from the sale of the Property.  The actual net proceeds will be determined in the same manner as the estimated net proceeds, but on the basis of the actual sales proceeds.  For purposes of computing a Loss, such actual net proceeds shall not be less than the estimated net proceeds calculated by the Company under this subparagraph (c), or as otherwise approved by the Company.


4.

The Company shall not unreasonably withhold its approval of expenses submitted to it after its approval of an offer.  Expenses paid to Persons employed or controlled by the Insured or the Owner of the Loan or their internal costs will not be allowed in calculation of either the estimated or actual net proceeds.


5.

If requested by the Company, the Insured shall advise the Company of the name of the real estate broker or other Person marketing the Property and authorize such broker or other Person to release marketing information about the Property to the Company, if requested by the Company.


5.11

Foreclosure Bidding Instructions Given by the Company__ The Insured will be entitled to bid at the foreclosure sale held as part of the Appropriate Proceedings any amount which it determines necessary to obtain Borrower's Title to the Property, unless otherwise directed by the Company.  The Company will be entitled to direct the Insured to bid an amount to be determined by the Insured within a minimum and maximum range, as follows:


a.

The minimum amount shall not be less than the fair market value of the Property, but if there has been Physical Damage to the Property which affects its fair market value (as determined before such Physical Damage) by more than ten per cent (10%), the fair market value of the Property shall be its fair market value after restoration of the Property.








b.

The maximum amount shall not exceed the greater of (1) the fair market value of the Property as determined under subparagraph (a) above, or (2) the estimated Claim Amount less the amount which the Company would pay as the percentage guaranty option under Section 6.3(b).


c.

For purposes of this Section 5.11, fair market value shall be determined as of a date acceptable to the Company by an opinion of an independent real estate broker, or by an independent appraiser, in either case selected by or acceptable to the Company.


The Insured is not required to acquire Borrower's Title if it has bid in accordance with this Section 5.11, whether or not pursuant to directions from the Company.


5.12

Effect of Unexpired Redemption Period on Payment of a Claim__ If the Insured files a Claim prior to expiration of an applicable redemption period, the Loss payable shall only be computed through the date of filing of the Claim, and if the Company elects to acquire the Property, the Insured will remain responsible for management and control of the Property until the Company's acquisition thereof, which may be after expiration of the redemption period, but not later than as required by Section 6.4.


If the Company has paid to the Insured a Claim under its percentage guaranty option in Section 6.3 (b), and the related Property is subsequently redeemed by the Borrower, the Insured shall promptly report such redemption to the Company and reimburse the Company for the amount of the Company's Claim payment, to the extent that the sum of the Company's Claim payment and the amount realized by the Insured from the redemption exceeds the Claim Amount, as would have been calculated through the date of redemption.


5.13

Collection Assistance__ If the Company so requests, the Insured shall permit the Company to cooperatively assist the Insured in the collection of moneys due under the Loan, including obtaining information from the Borrower, attempting to develop payment schedules acceptable to the Insured, conducting Property inspections and requesting appraisals of the Property.


6

Loss Payment Procedure


6.1

Filing of Claim__ The Insured shall file a Claim after, but no later than sixty (60) days following, the conveyance to the Insured of Borrower's Title to the Property.  If the Insured is not required to have Borrower's Title to file a Claim for a reason described in Section 5.9, then the Claim must be filed (a) within sixty (60) days after the Property is conveyed in a pre-foreclosure sale, at the foreclosure sale, or by exercise of the rights of redemption or (b) at the time specified by Section 5.3.  If the Insured fails to file a Claim within the applicable time, the Insured will not be entitled to, and the Company will not be obligated for, any payment under this Policy for amounts, including additional interest and expenses, which would otherwise be







claimable, but  which accrue or are incurred after the sixty (60) day period for filing of a Claim.


If the Insured fails to file a Perfected Claim within one hundred eighty (180) days after the filing of the Claim (or within such longer period of time as the Company may allow in writing), the Insured will no longer be entitled to payment of a Loss and the Company will not be obligated to make any payment under this Policy.


6.2

Calculation of Claim Amount__ Subject to Sections 7.5 and 5.3, the Claim Amount will be an amount equal to the sum of:


a.

The amount of unpaid principal balance due under the Loan as of the date of Default without capitalization of delinquent interest, penalties or advances; and


b.

The amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on the Loan computed at the contract rate stated in the Loan through the date that the Claim is filed with the Company, but excluding applicable late charges, penalty interest or other changes to the interest rate by reason of Default; and


c.

The amount of advances incurred by the Insured under Section 5.7 prior to filing of the Claim (except to Persons employed or controlled by the Insured or the Owner of the Loan or their other internal costs) provided that:


1.

Attorney's fees advanced for completion of Appropriate Proceedings and obtaining Possession of the Property will not be allowed to the extent they exceed three percent (3%) of the sum of the unpaid principal balance and the accrued and accumulated interest due; and


2.

Such advances, other than attorney's fees, must have first become due and payable after the Default, and payment of such advances must be prorated through the date the Claim is filed with the Company;


less:


(i)

The amount of all rents and other payments (excluding proceeds of a sale of the Property and the proceeds of fire and extended coverage insurance) collected or received by the Insured, which are derived from or in any way related to the Property;


(ii)

The amount of cash remaining in any escrow account as of the last payment date;


(iii)

The amount of cash or other collateral to which the Insured has retained the right of possession as security for the Loan;








(iv)

The amount paid under applicable fire and extended coverage policies which are in excess of the cost of restoring and repairing the Property, if the Property is damaged, and which has not been paid to the Borrower or applied to the payment of the Loan as required by the terms of the Loan; and


(v)

Any other amounts claimed by the Insured to the extent they are excluded from the Claim Amount by reason of Section 4.


6.3

Payment of Loss; Company's Options__ Within the Settlement Period, but only if the Insured has satisfied all requirements for a payment of Loss and if the Company has received a Perfected Claim, the Company shall at its sole option exercise its:


a.

Property acquisition settlement option.  Pay to the Insured as the Loss the Claim Amount calculated in accordance with Section 6.2 for the Company's acquisition of the Property; or


b.

Percentage guaranty option.  Allow the Insured to retain all rights in and title to the Property, and pay to the Insured as the Loss the Claim Amount calculated in accordance with Section 6.2 of this Policy multiplied by the percentage of coverage or as otherwise calculated as specified in the Certificate. However, if prior to the Company's payment of the Loss, a third party acquires title to the Property at the foreclosure sale or a Borrower redeems the Property (unless such acquisition or redemption occurs because the Insured failed to bid as provided in Section 5.11), then the Company shall pay the lesser of: (i) the percentage guaranty option amount described above; or (ii) the difference between the Claim Amount and the amount realized by the Insured at the foreclosure sale or redemption; or


c.

Pre-Claim sale option.  Pay to the Insured as the Loss the amount calculated in accordance with Section 5.10, if the terms and conditions of Section 5.10 are met.


In addition to the sum due pursuant to the option described above which the Company selects, the Loss payable by the Company will include the other amounts provided for under Sections 6.5 or 7.2 when such Sections are applicable.  The Company will deduct from its payment of Loss such amounts as may be permitted by this Policy and the aggregate amounts of any payments of Loss which it had previously made.  In the event of a Loss on a Loan with renewal premiums due monthly, which results from a Default covered under Section 2.6(a), the Company shall deduct from the payment of Loss an amount equal to any unpaid renewal premiums for the subject Loan through the end of the monthly renewal period in which such Default occurred.


6.4

Calculation of Settlement Period__ The Settlement Period will be a sixty (60) day period after the Company's receipt of a Claim, calculated as follows:








a.

No later than the twentieth (20th) day after filing of a Claim, the Company may notify the Insured of additional documents or information which it requires for processing the Claim.  The sixty-day period will be suspended until the Company receives such additional documents and information.  The Company may request additional documents and information after such twenty day period, and the Insured must use reasonable efforts to satisfy such request.


b.

No later than the sixtieth (60th) day after filing of a Claim, the Company may notify the Insured that it will require access to the Property sufficient to inspect, appraise and evaluate the Property.  If the Company does not notify the Insured by that date, its right to such access will be deemed waived.  If such notice is given, the Insured will use its best efforts to provide access to the Company and, if access is not then available, the sixty day period will be suspended from the date such notice was given until the Company receives notice from the Insured that access is available to it.  If access is in fact not available when sought by the Company after such notice from the Insured, the Company will promptly notify the Insured of such unavailability, and the passage of the sixty day period will remain suspended as if the Insured's notice of availability had not been give n to the Company.


c.

If the Company has elected to acquire the Property in settlement of a Claim, the sixty day period also will be suspended if necessary for there to be a period of ten (10) days after the date on which the Insured satisfies all conditions to acquisition, including any required restoration of the Property, for the Insured's delivery of a recordable deed and title policy or opinion evidencing Good and Merchantable Title (not subject to any rights of redemption, unless the Company waives such requirement) and, if applicable, delivery of Possession to the Property.


d.

If the sixty day period is suspended for more than one reason, the resulting suspended periods will only be cumulative if in fact they occur at different times; to the extent they occur simultaneously, they will not be cumulative.


6.5

Payment by the Company After the Settlement Period__ If the Company has not paid a Loss during the Settlement Period, then (a) the Company will include in its payment of Loss, if a Loss is ultimately payable, simple interest on the amount payable accruing after the Settlement Period to the date of payment of Loss at the applicable interest rate or rates which would have been payable on the Loan during such period, and (b) the Company will no longer be entitled to acquire the Property as an option for payment of the Loss.


The Company must either pay the amount of applicable Loss (including any additional applicable interest as computed above) or deny the Claim in its entirety within (a) one hundred twenty (120) days after expiration of the Settlement Period, or (b) if the Settlement Period has not expired, no later than one hundred eighty (180) days after filing of the Claim.  If at a later date it is finally determined by agreement







between the Insured and the Company (or by completion of legal or other proceedings to which the Insured and the Company are parties) that the Company was not entitled to deny all or a portion of the Claim, the Company will include in any resulting subsequent payment of Loss interest as calculated above through the date of such payment on the amount of Loss which the Company was not entitled to deny.


6.6

Discharge of Obligation__ Payment by the Company of the amount of Loss required to be paid in accordance with this Policy will be a full and final discharge of its obligation with respect to such Loss under this Policy.


7

Additional Conditions


7.1

Proceedings of Eminent Domain__ In the event that part or all of a Property is taken by eminent domain, or condemnation or by any other proceedings by federal, state or local governmental unit or agency, the Insured must require that the Borrower apply the maximum permissible amount of any compensation awarded in such proceedings to reduce the principal balance of the Loan, in accordance with the law of the jurisdiction where the Property is located.


7.2

Pursuit of Deficiencies


a.

The Insured will be entitled to pursue Appropriate Proceedings, or shall at the direction of the Company pursue Appropriate Proceedings through the end of the Settlement Period, which may result in the Borrower becoming liable for a deficiency after completion of the Insured's acquisition of a Property.  Such pursuit may not be directed by the Company unless such deficiency is estimated to exceed $7,500.  If the Company proposes to pursue a deficiency judgment, in whole or in part for its account, it will notify the Insured at least thirty (30) days before the foreclosure sale.  If the Company does not so notify the Insured, the deficiency judgment, if established by the Insured, will be solely for the account of the Insured, and the Company will not be subrogated to any rights to pursue the deficiency judgment.


b.

The following provisions will apply if, in completing Appropriate Proceedings there are additional expenses advanced pursuant to Section 5.7 or additional interest accrued on the Loan, due to (1) an additional redemptive period or a delay in acquisition of Borrower's Title, which period or delay is directly related to establishing the deficiency judgment or (2) legal proceedings which are necessary to establish and pursue the deficiency judgment and which would not otherwise be the custom and practice used.


i.

If the deficiency judgment is to be established, in whole or in part, for the account of the Company, the Company must pay the Insured at the time of payment of the Claim, regardless of which settlement option the Company has selected, the full amount of:








(A)

such additional expenses advanced pursuant to Section 5.7 by the Insured; and


(B)

such additional interest accrued on the unpaid principal balance of the Loan at the contract rate stated in the Loan, but excluding applicable late charges, penalty interest, or other changes to the interest rate by reason of Default.


ii.

If the deficiency judgment is not to be established, in whole or in part, for the account of the Company, none of the additional interest or expenses of the type described in subparagraph (i) above will be includable in the Claim Amount or payable at any time by the Company.


iii.

For purposes of determining the additional expenses described in subparagraph (i) above resulting from pursuing the deficiency judgment, the limitation on attorneys' fees in Section 6.2 will not apply.


iv.

All of the additional interest, expenses, attorney's fees and court expenses described in subparagraph (i) above will be accrued or advanced only through acquisition of Borrower's Title, including any additional redemptive period.


c.

The Company and the Insured may agree generally or with respect to a Loan to different terms and conditions than set forth in this Section 7.2.  The Company and the Insured also may agree to the joint pursuit or other arrangements for the collection of deficiency judgments on mutually acceptable terms and conditions.


7.3

Subrogation__ Subject to Section 7.2(a), and only to the extent that the Company is entitled under applicable law to pursue such deficiency rights, the Company will be subrogated, upon payment of the Loss, in the amount thereof and with an equal priority to all of the Insured's rights of recovery against a Borrower and any other Person relating to the Loan or to the Property.  The Insured must execute and deliver at the request of the Company such instruments and papers and undertake such actions as may be necessary to transfer, assign and secure such rights.  The Insured shall refrain from any action, either before or after payment of a Loss, that prejudices such rights.  


7.4

Policy for Exclusive Benefit of the Insured and the Owner__ A Commitment and Certificate issued as the result of any Application submitted hereunder and the coverage provided under this Policy will be for the sole and exclusive benefit of the Insured and the Owner of the related Loan, and in no event will any Borrower or other Person be deemed a party to, or an intended beneficiary of, this Policy or any Commitment or Certificate.  


7.5

Effect of Borrower Insolvency or Bankruptcy on Principal Balance__ If under applicable insolvency or bankruptcy law, a Loan's principal balance secured by a







Property is reduced (after all appeals of such reduction are final or the time for such appeals has lapsed without appeal), the portion of such principal balance of the Loan not secured by the Property, and related interest, will be includable in the Claim Amount, as provided in this Section 7.5.


If a Default occurs on the Loan, the Insured has acquired Borrower's Title or Good and Merchantable Title to the Property as required by this Policy, and all other requirements for filing of a Claim are complied with, the Insured will be entitled to include in the Claim Amount (a) the amount of the principal balance of the Loan which was deemed unsecured under applicable insolvency or bankruptcy law, less any collections or payments on such unsecured principal balance received by the Insured, and (b) interest thereon at the rate and as computed in Section 6.2, from the date of Default giving rise to the Claim (but for no prior period).  In no event will any expenses or other amounts associated with the amount by which the principal balance of the Loan became unsecured be includable in the Claim Amount, directly or by an addition to the principal balance includable in the Claim Amount.


7.6

Arbitration of Disputes; Suits and Actions Brought by the Insured


a.

Unless prohibited by applicable law, all controversies, disputes or other assertions of liability or rights arising out of or relating to this Policy, including the breach, inter­pretation or construction thereof, shall be settled by arbitration.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Company or the Insured both retain the right to seek a declaratory judgement from a court of competent jurisdiction on matters of interpretation of the Policy.  Such arbitration shall be conducted in accordance with the Title Insurance Arbitration Rules of the American Arbitration Association in effect on the date the demand for arbitration is made, or if such Rules are not then in effect, such other Rules of the American Arbitration Association as the Company may designate as its replacement.


The arbitrator(s) shall be neutral person(s) selected from the American Arbitration Association's National Panel of Arbitrators familiar with the mortgage lending or mortgage guaranty insurance business.  Any proposed arbitrator may be disqualified during the selection process, at the option of either party, if they are, or during the previous two (2) years have been, an employee, officer or director of any mortgage guaranty insurer, or of any entity engaged in the origination, purchase, sale or servicing of mortgage loans or mortgage-backed securities.


b.

No suit or action (including arbitration hereunder) brought by the Insured against the Company with respect to the Company's liability for a Claim under this Policy shall be sustained in any court of law or equity or by arbitration unless the Insured has substantially complied with the terms and conditions of this Policy, and unless the suit or action is commenced within three (3) years (five (5) years in Florida or Kansas) after the Insured has acquired Borrower's Title to the Property or sale of the Property approved by the Company is completed,







whichever is applicable to a Loan.  No such suit or action with respect to a Claim may be brought by the Insured against the Company until sixty (60) days after such acquisition of Borrower's Title or sale, as applicable to a Loan.


c.

If a dispute arises concerning the Loan which involves either the Property or the Insured, the Company has the right to protect its interest by defending the suit, even if the allegations contained in such suit are groundless, false or fraudulent.  The Company is not required to defend any lawsuit involving the Insured, the Property or the Loan.


7.7

Release of Borrower; Defenses of Borrower__ The Insured's execution of a release or waiver of the right to collect any portion of the unpaid principal balance of a Loan or other amounts due under the Loan will release the Company from its obligation under its Certificate to the extent and amount of said release.  If, under applicable law, the Borrower successfully asserts defenses which have the effect of releasing, in whole or in part, the Borrower's obligation to repay the Loan, or if for any other reason the Borrower is released from such obligation, the Company will be released to the same extent and amount from its liability under this Policy, except as provided by Section 7.5.


7.8

Amendments; No Waiver; Rights and Remedies; Use of Term "Including"


a.

The Company reserves the right to amend the terms and conditions of this Policy from time to time; provided, however, that any such amendment will be effective only after the Company has given the Insured written notice thereof by endorsement setting forth the amendment.  Such amendment will only be applicable to those Certificates where the related Commitment was issued on or after the effective date of the amendment.


b.

No condition or requirement of this Policy will be deemed waived, modified or otherwise compromised unless that waiver, modification or compromise is stated in a writing properly executed on behalf of the Company.  Each of the conditions and requirements of this Policy is severable, and a waiver, modification or compromise of one will not be construed as a waiver, modification or compromise of any other.


c.

No right or remedy of the Company provided for by this Policy will be exclusive of, or limit, any other rights or remedies set forth in this Policy or otherwise available to the Company at law or equity.


 d.

As used in this Policy, the term "include" or "including" will mean "include or including, without limitation."


7.9

No Agency__ Neither the Insured, any Servicer or Owner, nor any of their employees or agents, will be deemed for any reason to be agents of the Company.  Neither the







Company, nor any of its employees or agents, will be deemed for any reason to be agents of any Insured, Servicer or Owner.


7.10

Successors and Assigns__ This Policy will inure to the benefit of and shall be binding upon the Company and the Insured and their respective successors and permitted assigns.


7.11

Applicable Law and Conformity to Law__ All matters under this Policy will be governed by and construed in accordance with the laws of the jurisdiction in which the office of the original Insured on a Certificate is located.  Any provision of this Policy which is in conflict with any provision of the law of such jurisdiction is hereby amended to conform to the provisions required by that law.


7.12

Notice__ All claims, premium payments, tenders, reports, other data and any other notices required to be submitted to the Company by the Insured must be sent to the Company at MGIC Plaza, 250 East Kilbourn Avenue, Milwaukee, WI 53202.  The Company may change this address by giving written notice to the Insured.  Unless the Insured otherwise notifies the Company in writing, all notices to the Insured must be sent to the address on the face of this Policy or, if the Insured is not located at such address, to the last known address of the Insured.


All notices under this Policy, whether or not identified in this Policy as required to be in writing, will be effective only if in writing and only upon receipt thereof.  Written notices may instead be given in the form of telecopy or, if acceptable to the Company (for notices given to the Company) or to the Insured (for notices given to the Insured) in the form of computer tape or computer-generated or any other electronic message.  A telecopy or such tape or message shall be effective only when received.  The Company and the Insured may mutually agree that notices will be sent to any additional Person.  Except as expressly agreed to by the Company and the Insured, no liability shall be incurred by the Company for the failure to give a notice to a Person other than the Insured.


7.13

Reports and Examinations__ The Company may request, and the Insured must provide, such files, reports or information as the Company may deem necessary pertaining to any Loan, and the Company will be entitled to inspect the files, books and records of the Insured or any of its representatives pertaining to such Loan.


7.14

1.28

Transmittal means the information and format designated as such by the Company which requests or directs the Company to issue its Commitment and tender its Certificate with respect to the Loan identified therein, which may be identified by the title "Transmittal" and which includes all data and information and all exhibits and documents furnished in connection therewith to the Company. Whenever the term "Application" is used in this Policy, the term "Transmittal" and its definition will be substituted therefor.


1.29

In order to obtain coverage under this Policy for a Loan, the Insured or the Person acting on its behalf must submit a duly completed Transmittal to the Company within thirty (30) days after the Insured makes or purchases the Loan (or such longer period as allowed by the Company), and the Company shall then issue a Commitment and Certificate, if all applicable requirements are satisfied.



If the Insured or the Person acting on its behalf subsequently denies the mortgage loan application received by it from the applicant, the Insured will be responsible for notifying the applicant in compliance with any applicable state or federal laws or regulations, including the Equal Credit Opportunity Act and any other similar law or regulation.


2.2

Representations of the Insured , The Insured represents to the Company that:

All statements made and information provided to the Company in a Transmittal or in a Commitment or Certificate (including as such is related to continuation of coverage upon assumption of a Loan) are supported by statements and information in the Loan File;

c.

Section 2.4 will not apply to a Certificate if within twelve (12) months before or after a material misrepresentation by a Borrower or other Person (other than those Persons identified in Section 2.4(a)), there are one or more material misrepresentations in an Application or Transmittal (i) with respect to three (3) or more other mortgage loans insured at any time by the Company for the Insured or any other lender and (ii) which result from the direct or indirect acts or omissions of the same Borrower or same other Person (including any other Person acting directly or indirectly in concert).


d.

This Section 2.4 shall not be construed to limit the applicability of Section 4.4(b) to a misrepresentation which is subject to this Section 2.4.

Payment of the Full Benefit of the Primary Policy – Any portion of any Claim for Loss to the extent the Insured under the related Primary Policy has not received the amount of the full benefit of the percentage option claim payment under the Primary Policy (irrespective of the reason or cause, including insolvency of the Primary Policy insurer or failure of the Insured to comply with the terms and conditions of the Primary Policy); assuming that all the terms and conditions of the Primary Policy were fully complied with.


C

Section 5.8 is amended by adding a new subparagraph (f) as follows:


f.

A copy of the claim and evidence of the payment of, and any adjustments to, the claim under the Primary Policy, and other information related to such Primary Policy as the Company may reasonably request.

The following additional condition precedent to payment of Claim, in new Section 5.14, is added to the Policy:





5.14

Coverage Required Under Primary Policy - Except as hereinafter provided, the Insured shall have coverage in full force and effect under a Primary Policy at the time of conveyance of the Property as described in Section 6.1 of this Policy, which provides coverage against loss resulting from a Borrower's Default. The Primary Policy shall, as a minimum, provide coverage on the principal amount of the Loan for those Loans as set forth on the applicable Certificate and in at least the coverage percent as set forth on such Certificate.


Coverage of a Loan under a Primary Policy must remain in force until cancellation thereof is required under applicable law.


E.

Section 6.1 is deleted in its entirety and replaced with the following:


The Insured must submit and settle its claim under a Primary Policy before a Claim on such Loan may be filed under this Policy, and the Insured shall file a Claim after, but no later than ninety (90) days following, the conveyance to the Insured of Borrower's Title to the Property, and the settlement of the claim under the Primary Policy, whichever is later. If the Insured is not required to have Borrower's Title to file a Claim for a reason described in Section 5.9, then, for purposes of the preceding requirements in which reference is made to a period of ninety (90) days following the conveyance to the Insured of Borrower's Title to the Property, in lieu of such reference shall be substituted, as applicable, (a) ninety (90) days after the Property is conveyed in a pre-foreclosure sale, at the foreclosure sale, or by exercise of the rights of redemption or (b) the time specified by Section 5.3. If the Insured fails to file a Claim within the a pplicable time, the Insured will not be entitled to, and the Company will not be obligated for, any payment under this Policy for amounts, including additional interest and expenses, which would otherwise be claimable, but which accrue or are incurred after the ninety (90) day period for filing of a Claim.


If the Insured fails to file a Perfected Claim within one hundred eighty (180) days after the filing of a Claim (or within such longer period of time as the Company may allow in writing), the Insured will no longer be entitled to payment of a Loss and the Company will not be obligated to make any payment under this Policy.

b.

Per Loan Loss Percentage Option. In the event the Company does not acquire the Property, allow the Insured to retain all rights and title to the Property and pay to the Insured as the Loss the lesser of: (i) the difference between the Claim Amount calculated in accordance with Section 6.2 and the amount realized by the Insured pursuant to its sale, if any, of the Property as provided in Section 5.10 and (ii) the Per Loan Loss Percentage option which shall be calculated by multiplying the applicable Per Loan Loss Percentage for such Loan times the Claim Amount (without any reduction for the Primary Policy claim payment pursuant to Section 6.2(vi)). However, if prior to the Company's payment of the Loss, a third party acquires title to the Property at the foreclosure sale or a Borrower redeems the Property (unless such acquisition or redemption occurs because the Insured failed to bid as provided in Section 5.11), then the Company shall pay the l esser of: (i) the Per Loan Loss Percentage option amount described above; or (ii) the difference between the Claim Amount and the amount realized by the Insured at the foreclosure sale or redemption; or





I.

The following is added at the end of Section 6.3:



Without limiting the requirements and conditions to filing and payment of a Claim contained in this Policy, if the Property has been acquired by the insurer under a Primary Policy, no Loss shall be payable under this Policy. For

Any Person to whom coverage has been assigned as permitted by Section 3.5 resulting in a change in the Insured named on a Certificate in accordance with this Policy.


B.

Section 1.24 is amended by adding the following sentence at the end thereof:


"For purposes of this Policy, the term "Servicer" shall include the master servicer for a Loan of whom the Company has been notified, as well as any servicer acting on behalf of the master servicer of whom the Company has been notified."


C.

Section 2.3 of the Policy is amended to read in its entirety as follows:


2.3

Company's Remedies for Misrepresentation -- Subject to Section 2.4, if any of the Insured's representations as described in Section 2.2 are materially false or misleading with respect to a Loan, the Company will have at its option, the right to defend against a Claim with respect to such Loan, or to the extent permitted by applicable law, to cancel or rescind coverage under any Certificate with respect to such Loan retroactively to commencement of coverage (or if the misrepresentation occurs with respect to continuation of coverage upon assumption of a Loan, to so defend, cancel or rescind retroactively to the date of such continuation with respect to such Loan). In the case of such cancellation or recission, the Company shall return at that time all paid premiums retroactively to such applicable date.


D.

Section 2.4 and all references thereto in the Policy are deleted in their entirety.


E.

Section 2.6a. of the Policy is amended to read in its entirety as follows:


a.

The Company must give the Insured prior notice of the due date for payment of the applicable premium payable for coverage of all Loans insured under this Policy.  The entire premium for all Loans must be paid within a forty-five (45) day grace period (or such longer grace period generally allowed by the Company) after the due date for payment, except that if a Default on a Loan occurs between the last date through which the applicable monthly renewal premium has been paid and the end of such grace period, the Insured shall not be required to pay monthly renewal premiums in connection with such Loan, and coverage of such Default will continue, while such Default exists.  If such Default is not cured and results in a Claim, such unpaid monthly renewal premiums through the renewal month in which such Default occurred shall be paid as provided in Section 6.3 by deduction from the Loss.


Upon payment of the entire premium for all Loans within such grace period, this Policy will be in effect for the applicable period of coverage and a Default on a Loan occurring within said grace period which is not cured, and which results in a Claim being filed, will be covered.


If a Default occurs prior to the date through which the entire premium for all Loans has been paid, and if such Default is not cured and results in a Claim being filed, such Default shall remain covered and no further premium on such Loan in Default shall be due in order to maintain coverage of such Default. If such Default is cured, all monthly renewal premiums not paid during the period of Default shall be payable (unless previously paid by the Insured) within forty-five (45) days or such longer period generally allowed by the Company after notice from the Company in order to continue coverage.  


If the entire premium for all Loans is not paid within the grace period, at the option of the Company, the coverage of this Policy and the Company's liability as to all Loans will terminate effective as of 12:01 a.m.




on the first day following the date through which the applicable premium has been paid and as a result, any existing or future Defaults on any of the Loans will not be covered under this Policy.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Insured shall remain obligated to continue coverage in effect and pay any premium which is due, as required by Section 2.8 of this Policy.


F.

Section 2.8 is amended to read in its entirety as follows:


2.8

Cancellation by the Insured of a Certificate --- Notwithstanding any provision to the contrary in this Policy, the Insured shall be obligated to maintain coverage of a Certificate for a Loan and to pay corresponding premiums for continuation of such coverage for each month or partial month coverage is in effect unless or until (a) the Loan is paid in full or (b) the ratio of the outstanding principal balance of the Loan to the Value (as defined in Section 1.26 of the Policy) of the Property securing the Loan is at least five (5 ) percentage points less than the Original LTV minus the percentage of coverage for such Loan under this Policy or (c) if otherwise permitted in writing by the Company. Subject to the foregoing obligation of the Insured to maintain coverage, the Insured may obtain cancellation of coverage on a Loan by making a written request to the Company for cancellation of coverage on the Loan. However, no refund will be paid up on cancellation of coverage on a Loan. Cancellation of coverage on a Loan will not cancel this Policy.


G.

Section 3.5 is amended to read in its entirety as follows:


3.5

Change of Insured --- Change of Insured shall only be allowed if advance written approval is obtained from the Company (which approval shall be in the sole and absolute discretion of the Company). If coverage of a Loan is to be assigned or transferred by the Insured to a new Insured, the Insured shall request the Company's approval thereof and if the Company approves the change of Insured, the Company shall, thereafter, change its records to identify the new Insured for such Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, upon notice to the Company, the Insured may transfer coverage of a Loan to the Owner thereof or, upon the securitization of a Loan, to any trustee in such securitization, in each case without the prior approval of the Company; provided, however, that if in connection therewith there is a change in Servicer or if the servicing of the Loan is assumed by the new Insured or another Person, Section 3.4 of this Policy shall apply and the approval by the Company of such new Servicer, Insured or other Person shall be required.



All terms capitalized will have the meanings set forth in the Policy, except as otherwise defined herein. Nothing herein contained will be held to vary, alter, waive or extend any of the terms and conditions of the Policy, or any amendments thereto, except as expressly set forth above.

Ms. Ellen Kiernan

Mr. Thomas Baumgart

Structured Asset Investment Loan Trust 2004-8,

RE:

Terms for MGIC Mortgage Insurance Coverage (“Coverage") on Approximately $1.015 Billion in Principal Balances of Loans (the “Insurable Loans”)  to be included in the Trust known as the Structured Asset Investment Loan Trust 2004-8, Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates Series 2004-8 (the "Trust")


Dear Ms. Kiernan and Mr. Baumgart:


Mortgage Guaranty Insurance Corporation (“MGIC”) has reviewed the information provided by Lehman Brothers, Incorporated ("Lehman") concerning the Insurable Loans and is providing pricing and terms to issue lender-paid first lien Coverage under the Master Policy (as defined below) on the loans contained within the portfolio. This proposal is subject to due diligence findings and the following terms and conditions:


1.

Portfolio Size. MGIC has identified the following Insurable Loans from the Final File (as defined below) submitted by Lehman:


Insurable Loans

$   Volume   

(Current LTV1>80)

 

4,495

$1,015,185,461.10  


The actual size of the final portfolio of Insured Loans as defined below may be slightly smaller based on recent prepayments, delinquencies, and/or additional screening of loan eligibility.


2.

Loan Coverage. Lender-paid Coverage will be issued by MGIC on each Insurable Loan that meets the applicable Eligibility Criteria (as set forth in Section 0 below). The Coverage percent for an Insurable Loan is calculated as the Original LTV2 minus sixty percent (60%) divided by the Original LTV ratio, with the result rounded to the next highest whole number.  Example:

_____________________

1.

For purposes of this letter, an Insurable Loan’s “Current LTV” means the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the Insurable Loan’s principal balance as of the close of business on August 1, 2004 to the Value of the related property at origination.

2.

For purposes of this letter, an Insurable Loan’s “Original LTV” means the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the initial principal balance of the Insurable Loan at origination to the Value of the related property at origination.






Original LTV = 87.49  (expressed as a percentage)

Original LTV = .8749  (expressed as a ratio)


Coverage percentage  = (87.49 - 60)/.8749) = 31.4207 = 32


3.  

Premium.  LaSalle Bank National Association ("LaSalle Bank"), solely in its capacity as Trustee, shall pay or cause the Master Servicer or any Servicer pursuant to the Trust Agreement, dated as of August 1, 2004, among LaSalle Bank, as Trustee, Structured Asset Securities Corporation, Aurora Loan Services Inc., Wells Fargo Bank Minnesota, National Association and The Murrayhill Company (the "Trust Agreement") to pay in arrears a nonrefundable monthly premium for the Coverage. Such premium shall be calculated at an annualized premium rate of 131 basis points applied to the unpaid principal balance of each Insured Loan determined as of the beginning of the prior calendar month.  For purposes of this letter, “Insured Loan” means an Insurable Loan as to which Coverage under the Master Policy (as defined below) is issued by MGIC.


LaSalle Bank as Trustee shall provide or cause to be provided, pursuant to the Trust Agreement, to MGIC on a monthly basis via computer file (in a mutually acceptable format), the unpaid principal balance, MGIC certificate number, lender loan number, and premium due for each Insured Loan.


The premium rate quoted in this paragraph does not include premium taxes that are required to be paid by the Insured in the States of Kentucky and West Virginia.  The Final File includes Insurable Loans in the States of Kentucky and West Virginia. The tax rates generally range from 1.0% - 17% of the premium paid, and such rates shall be provided with respect to any Insured Loans on a loan-level basis to the Insured or its designee by MGIC and such amount shall be added to the payment of the premium paid to MGIC who will cause such tax to be paid.


With respect to all Insured Loans, Lehman represents and warrants that (a) the borrower will not be charged a separate or identified amount as payment or reimbursement for premiums for Coverage and that such premiums will be paid from funds of the Insured or persons other than the borrower, and (b) that the Coverage will either not be subject to the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998 or will be “lender paid mortgage insurance” thereunder. In addition, with respect to any Insured Loan secured by a property in New York State for which, at the effective date of Coverage or at any time while the Master Policy is in effect for such Insured Loan, the ratio of the unpaid principal balance of such Insured Loan to the Value of the related property at origination is less than 75%, Lehman represents and warrants that all premiums for Coverage will not be paid by the borrower, directly or indirectly, includin g, for example, by a higher interest rate or other charges. It is acknowledged that these representations and warranties are relied upon by MGIC in insuring such Insured Loans because they relate to the maintenance of Coverage of such Insured Loans under the Master Policy.


4.

MurrayHill Company. The above pricing is dependent upon the MurrayHill Company or its successor to substantially all of its business serving as the loss mitigation advisor and providing loss mitigation and servicing advisor services throughout the entire effective life of the Coverage on the Insured Loans.  In the event that MurrayHill's services either are not retained or terminate while Coverage on any Insured Loan remains in effect, and the services of MurrayHill are not promptly replaced with another loss mitigation advisor and provider of loss mitigation and servicing advisor services acceptable to MGIC, then in MGIC's sole discretion, the annualized premium rate on each Insured Loan shall increase by .01% (1 bps) for the remaining life of the Coverage on the Insured Loans.  MGIC shall promptly notify the Insured and Lehman of such increase.


5.

Effective Date of Coverage.  Coverage for all Insured Loans shall take effect as of August 1, 2004.  The initial monthly premium shall be due on September 25, 2004. Monthly renewal premiums shall be due thereafter on the 25th day (or if that day is not a business day, the next business day) of each month while the Coverage is in effect.


6.

Named Insured.   LaSalle Bank, solely in its capacity as Trustee, shall be the named insured under the Master Policy and all Certificates covering the Insured Loans.


7.  

Bulk Certificate.  MGIC will provide to the Insured one bulk insurance Certificate for all of the Insured Loans, together with a summary of the coverage information on a loan-by loan basis in an electronic format and thereafter a certificate number for each Insured Loan.  MGIC will not be obligated to issue individual Certificates for each Insured Loan.


8.

Restrictions on Cancellation and Assignment. The premium rate for the Insured Loans was calculated based upon a review of information pertaining to the Insurable Loans and a weighted average of the Current LTV of all Insurable Loans, as provided to LaSalle Bank pursuant to the Trust Agreement, as described in Section 1 above. Lehman and the Insured acknowledge that the terms of the Master Policy (as defined below), including the restrictions on cancellation and assignment, were relied upon by MGIC in establishing such premium rate. Lehman and the Insured also agree that the Coverage to be issued under the Master Policy is non-assignable except as provided for under Endorsement to Mortgage Guaranty Master Policy [#71-70201 (1/03)].


For purposes of Section 3.5 in the Endorsement, MGIC approves assignment of coverage on an individual Insured Loan from the Trustee to Lehman or its affiliate in connection with an Insured Loan repurchased or substituted for by Lehman, and assignment of coverage on all Insured Loans as a group from the Trustee to any successor Trustee, provided, in each such case, that the Trustee promptly notifies MGIC of such assignment.


9.

Cancellation of Policy and Coverage of Insured Loans Upon Termination of Trust. Except as otherwise provided below, in the event that the Trust is terminated for any reason (a “Redemption”), or there are no longer any Insured Loans that are security for, or represented by, the Trust, the Master Policy and the Coverage of all Insured Loans under the Master Policy shall automatically be terminated effective upon such event, without further action being required by either the Insured or MGIC, and any Default on any Insured Loan existing at the time of such termination and any future Default on an Insured Loan will not be covered under the Master Policy, nor will any refund of premium be paid.


Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event of a Redemption, the Coverage of Loans insured under the Policy shall not automatically terminate if all of the Loans then insured under the Policy, including, but not limited to, all such Loans then in Default, are purchased by Lehman Brothers, its affiliate, or any successor to Lehman Brothers by virtue of merger or consolidation, within thirty (30) days after the effective date of the Redemption and MGIC is promptly notified of such purchase.


10.

Loan Eligibility Criteria. Under the Master Reporting Program Endorsement (With Limited Incontestability) For Illinois Bulk Transactions [#71-70192 (8/01)] , “Eligibility Criteria” may be established on the Insured Loans by MGIC upon notice to the Insured.  This letter will serve as such notice for purposes of the Master Policy and will apply to all Insured Loans.  All Insured Loans must meet the following Eligibility Criteria as of the effective date of Coverage or as of such other date as otherwise noted below:


a)

CLTVs (Combined LTVs). With respect to any Insured Loan, The CLTV (as defined below) may not exceed the Original LTV, except for loans for which the CLTV is specifically disclosed to exceed the Original LTV on the Final File.  The CLTV may not exceed 100% in any case.


The combined loan-to-value ratio ("CLTV") is defined as the ratio, expressed as a percentage, of the sum, as of the date of Insured Loan closing, of (1) the loan amount of the Insured Loan and (2) the outstanding principal balance of any other loan or loans secured by the property which are either (a) subordinated to the lien of the Insured Loan or (b) a second lien loan and are known to Lehman as transmitted in the Final File, divided by the Value of the property.


b)

Debt Ratios. Insured Loans may not have a "Total Debt Ratio" greater than 55%.  As used herein, the term "Total Debt Ratio" shall have the meaning ascribed to such term in the MGIC publication entitled "MGIC's Underwriting Guide" [#71-40600 (1/98)].


c)

Bankruptcies and Foreclosures.  


Foreclosures - No borrower on any Insured Loan may have been the subject of a foreclosure proceeding within the 12 months prior to the origination of the Insured Loan.


Bankruptcies - No borrower on any Insured Loan may have been a debtor who was the subject of a bankruptcy proceeding during the 12 months prior to the closing of the loan.


d)

Section 32 (HOEPA) loans.   No Insured Loan can be a loan which would be required to comply with Section 226.32 of the federal truth-in-lending regulations (commonly referred to as a "HOEPA loan").


e)

Delinquencies. All payments due on an Insured Loan must have been made except for a payment with a scheduled due date of July 2, 2004, or later.  In addition, an Insured Loan may not have been 30 days delinquent (as defined below) more than twice at any time in the twelve months prior to August 1, 2004, and an Insured Loan may not ever have been 60 days delinquent prior to August 1, 2004. An Insured Loan is deemed to have been delinquent when any payment was not made by the close of business on the date on which payment was due under the related mortgage note (the scheduled due date).  An Insured Loan is deemed to have been 30 days delinquent if payment had not been received by the close of business on the corresponding day of the month immediately succeeding the month in which payment was first due, or, if there is no such corresponding day (e.g., as when a 30-day month follows a 3 1-day month in which a payment was due on the 31st day of such month), then on the last day of such immediately succeeding month. Similarly, an Insured Loan is deemed to have been 60 days delinquent if payment had not been received by the close of business on the corresponding day of the second immediately succeeding month.


f)

Single Property.  Insured Loans may be secured by only one property.



g)

Loan Instrument Type.  Insured Loans must be positively amortizing loans or interest-only loans. Negatively amortizing loans are not eligible.


h)

Multiple Loans to Same Borrower.  The portfolio of Insured Loans covered by the Master Policy cannot include more than two Insured Loans for any borrower (irrespective of other borrowers on either Insured Loan).


i)

Manufactured Homes. Insured Loans cannot be secured by manufactured homes.


j)

Property Type and Units.  Insured Loans must  be secured by 1-4 family residential properties located in the United States.  Eligible property types include single-family detached and attached (including condominiums, PUDs that meet Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac requirements, and cooperative housing).


11.

Master Policy and Endorsements. All Coverage issued hereunder shall be subject to the terms and conditions of the MGIC Mortgage Guaranty Master Policy [#71-70035 (10/96) with #71-7135 (8/94)], which includes a Master Reporting Program Endorsement (With Limited Incontestability) For Illinois Bulk Transactions [#71-70192 (8/01)] and Endorsement to Mortgage Guaranty Master Policy [#71-70201 (1/03)] (together, the “Master Policy”).


12.

Underwriting. MGIC has been advised that the Insured Loans were made and underwritten by the originator(s) of the Insured Loans in accordance with the underwriting requirements in effect at the time of origination of the Insured Loans (the “Underwriting Requirements”).   Lehman represents and warrants to MGIC that each Insured Loan meets (a) the Eligibility Criteria set forth in Section 10 above and (b) in all material respects, the Underwriting Requirements.  Lehman and the Insured acknowledge and agree that MGIC shall be entitled to rely upon the representation and warranty set forth in the preceding sentence.


13.

Final File.  Lehman will deliver to MGIC a final data file or files (in a form mutually agreed to by the parties) (the “Final File”) of Insurable Loans that meet the Eligibility Criteria and the other requirements for Coverage under this letter, a copy of which will be attached to the Certificate for Insured Loans. The Final File will constitute an application for Coverage under the Master Policy (referred to as a “transmittal” in the Master Reporting Program Endorsement (With Limited Incontestability) For Illinois Bulk Transactions [#71-70192 (8/01)] and this letter and any other information provided to MGIC will be considered part of that application.


14.

Loss Mitigation.  The Master Policy provides that each Insured (or the Servicer on its behalf) must actively cooperate with and assist MGIC in mitigating loss.  Accordingly, in order to comply with this provision, the Servicer's obligation to mitigate any loss includes, but is not limited to, offering to all borrowers who have the ability and desire to cure a default, the repayment plans, forbearance plans, loan modifications and other loan workout plans as described in Section 2 of MGIC's Default Servicing Guide as in effect as of the date of this letter. A loan modification shall not be required if such Insured Loan is subject to REMIC rules and the loan modification would make the Insured Loan non-qualified under REMIC rules.


15.

Servicing of Insured Loans under the Master Policy.  Lehman and the Insured acknowledge that under Section 3.4 of the Master Policy if there is a change of Servicer, Coverage of an Insured Loan continues only if the new Servicer is approved by MGIC, and that under Section 4.5 of the Master Policy a Claim occurring on an Insured Loan when the Servicer for such Insured Loan is not approved by MGIC is excluded from Coverage under the Master Policy.


16.

Accuracy of Information on Final File; Representations and Warranties and Covenants.  Lehman acknowledges and agrees that (a) the mortgage loan information for each Insurable Loan contained on the Final File provided to MGIC prior to issuance of Coverage is material to MGIC’s decision as to whether to issue such Coverage on such Insurable Loan, and (b) MGIC is relying on such information in issuing such Coverage on such Insurable Loan. Lehman represents and warrants to MGIC that all mortgage loan information provided to MGIC relevant to MGIC’s insurance decision on an Insurable Loan, including but not limited to information contained on the Final File provided by Lehman prior to issuance of Coverage, is materially true, correct, and accurate.


It is understood that information relating to the Insured Loans will be delivered to MGIC by electronic format, and that MGIC will not individually underwrite each Insured Loan.  In extending this offer to insure, MGIC is relying on the truth and accuracy of the information relating to the Insured Loans provided by Lehman.  The submission of inaccurate information which, in MGIC's reasonable judgment, is material to the acceptance or pricing of the risk with respect to any Insured Loan, may result in rescission or cancellation of Coverage on the affected Insured Loan, with a refund of all premium paid with respect thereto.  MGIC has no obligation to insure loans which do not meet the requirements of this letter.


For purposes of the Master Policy, all of the representations and warranties and other covenants of Lehman in this letter will be considered to be made on behalf of the Insured under the Master Policy, and the representations and warranties of the Insured in Section 2.2 of the Master Policy shall be deemed to have been made by Lehman on behalf of the Insured. However, MGIC's rights and remedies for a breach thereof shall be limited to MGIC's rights and remedies under the Master Policy and no other rights or remedies of MGIC shall be implied or created by this letter.


17.

Counterparts and Facsimile Signatures.  This letter agreement may be executed in separate counterparts, each of which shall be deemed an original but all of which together will constitute but one agreement, and will become effective when each party has executed one or more counterparts and delivered same to the other parties.  This letter agreement may also be executed by facsimile signatures, which will be as effective as original signatures. All capitalized terms in this letter, unless defined herein, shall have the respective meanings as set forth in the Master Policy.


It is acknowledged that although LaSalle Bank has executed this letter prior to its becoming Trustee for the benefit of the holders of the Trust, its execution hereof only will become effective as of the date it becomes Trustee.


If the foregoing terms and conditions accurately reflect the agreement among MGIC, Lehman and LaSalle Bank as the Insured, please acknowledge this letter as your request for insurance of the Insured Loans and your acceptance of its terms by signing it in the space provided below at your earliest convenience.  LaSalle Bank is signing solely as the Trustee and only the Trustee. LaSalle Bank personally is not responsible or liable for any representations, warranties, covenants or obligations herein except in its capacity as Trustee, the Insured.


In order for this letter to be binding on MGIC, it must be signed and returned to me within 30 days subsequent to the date of this letter, and the Master Policy must be issued no later than 60 days subsequent to the date of this letter.


Please call me if you have any questions.


Sincerely,



Steven M. Thompson
