The Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Trustee, when the Servicer believes it appropriate in its reasonable judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS System, or cause the removal from MERS registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Trustee, any and all instruments of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Trustee on behalf of the Trust Fund; provided, that the Servicer shall 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.  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.

EXHIBIT A

SERVICER REQUIREMENTS


Loading/Updating Investor Headers

1.

Bank of America will provide investor header matrix for input on MSP by Servicer. Updates/additions will occur monthly, including new investor header detail for each new deal that is settled.

2.

The Servicer will load investor headers upon receipt or before month end. The following fields will need to be updated on IN03: MS OPT, MS INV CNTRL NO, MS MO DELQ, and MS JUST FL.

3.

The Servicer will update the investor headers on the first business day of the next/following month to ensure that the correct loan accounts will appear on the corresponding 413 file that will represent the new month’s activity.

Loading Account Numbers

1.

Upon receipt of a funding schedule, Bank of America will deliver a cross reference of Servicer-to-Bank of America account numbers to the servicer. The account numbers will be delivered in the tran 55 layout for loading in the next Servicer MSP cycle.

2.

The Servicer will load account numbers on or before the first business day of the month to ensure that the correct Bank of America account numbers will appear on the corresponding 413 file that will represent the new month’s activity.

Automated Monetary Transaction File - 413

1.

Call Fidelity PowerCell and request installation of IP 770

2.

On the first business day of the month, the financial transactions for the LSBO portfolio will transmit from the Servicer MSP system to the Bank of America MSP system.

Monthly Servicer File - Automated

1.

Call Fidelity PowerCell and initiate an SSR for the installation of IP 1804 and the interchange set-up required to host and transmit this file. This enhancement will provide an automated month-end feed from the Servicer to Bank of America for the LSBO portfolio identified by the corresponding investor headers. The feed will include all new loans purchased by Bank of America in the previous month, as well as a maintenance file for all existing loans in the LSBO portfolio

2.

Once installed, populate XX flag on the IN03 screen. This flag will assist with synchronizing the feeds received in the Monthly Servicer File and the corresponding 413 file.

3.

Bank of America will receive and process the electronic file on the first business day of the month for the previous month-end file. Note: This file comes from the servicer automatically with the installation of the IP.

Monthly Servicer File - Manual

For testing purposes, and in the event that the IP is not installed prior to initial conversion, a manual process is in place to provide the Monthly Servicer File data feed for remote MSP clients.

1.

The Servicer will load/update investor header information received from Bank of America.

2.

The Servicer will send an email granting permission to Fidelity to provide the manual feed of accounts in the assigned investor headers identified. The email will contain the MSP client and corresponding investor/categories to be included in the feed.

3.

Bank of America will receive and process the file on the first business day of the month for the previous month-end file.

Note: For licensed MSP clients, the servicer will install and use the existing work-around EZTrieve process. (This will require the installation, testing, and implementation of the EZTrieve until the IP is ready.) The servicer will be required to develop a test file and production files until the IP is available.


Reporting Requirements

Required reports for the LSBO project are as follows:

S215 - Report summarizes the collections made during the reporting period

S214 - Report summarizes paid in full loans made during the reporting period

P139 - Monthly statement of mortgage accounts or a trial balance as of the cutoff date

Scheduled Remittance reports - Servicers send on a monthly basis. We would like this report by the 5th business day.

Delinquency Report – Report from the servicer to be sent by the 5th business day. If the servicer is a Fidelity client, we would like a P4DL report. Otherwise, a similar report will suffice. LSBO would like this report sent via e-mail or fax.


Note:  These S215, S214, and P139 reports will be provided in an electronic format. These reports are automatically generated when the 951/139 cutoff is calendared. The reports are required for the LSBO project; reports in addition to these may be required.

Accordingly, the Servicer, the Purchaser and the Assignee hereby agree, in consideration of the mutual premises and mutual obligations set forth herein, that the Master SWSA is hereby amended as follows:

AMENDMENT NO. 1

TO THE MASTER SELLER’S WARRANTIES AND SERVICING AGREEMENT

This is Amendment No. 1 (the “Amendment”), dated as of April 1, 2003 (the “Amendment Date”), by and among BANK OF AMERICA, N.A., a national, banking association (the “Assignee”), BANC OF AMERICA MORTGAGE CAPITAL CORPORATION, a North Carolina corporation (the “Purchaser”) and WELLS FARGO HOME MORTGAGE, INC., a California corporation (the “Servicer”) to that certain Master Seller’s Warranties and Servicing Agreement (the “Master SWSA”), dated as of January 1, 2003, between the Purchaser and the Servicer.

W I T N E S S E T H

WHEREAS, pursuant to various Assignment, Assumption and Recognition Agreements executed by the parties hereto from time to time, the Purchaser has previously assigned its interest in the Master SWSA as it relates to certain pools of Mortgage Loans to the Assignee; and

WHEREAS, the Servicer, the Purchaser and the Assignee have agreed, subject to the terms and conditions of this Amendment that the Master SWSA be amended to reflect certain agreed upon revisions to the terms of the Master SWSA.

Accordingly, the Servicer, the Purchaser and the Assignee hereby agree, in consideration of the mutual premises and mutual obligations set forth herein, that the Master SWSA is hereby amended as follows:

1.

The following definitions are inserted into Article I of the Master SWSA:

(a)

Buydown Agreement: An agreement between the Company and a Mortgagor, or an agreement among the Company, a Mortgagor and a seller of a Mortgaged Property or a third party with respect to a Mortgage Loan which provides for the application of Buydown Funds.”

(b)

Buydown Funds: In respect of any Buydown Mortgage Loan, any amount contributed by the seller of a Mortgaged Property subject to a Buydown Mortgage Loan, the buyer of such property, the Company or any other source, plus interest earned thereon, in order to enable the Mortgagor to reduce the payments required to be made from the Mortgagor’s funds in the early years of a Mortgage Loan.”

(c)

Buydown Mortgage Loan: Any Mortgage Loan in respect of which, pursuant to a Buydown Agreement, (i) the Mortgagor pays less than the full Monthly Payments specified in the Mortgage Note for a specified period, and (ii) the difference between the payments required under such Buydown Agreement and the Mortgage Note is provided from Buydown Funds.”

(d)

Buydown Period:  The period of time when a Buydown Agreement is in effect with respect to a related Buydown Mortgage Loan.”

(e)

Loan Package: As defined in the Recitals of this Agreement.”

2.

The definition of “Mortgage Loan Schedule” in Article I of the Master SWSA is amended by deleting the language “and (12) the Servicing Fee.” and inserting in its place “; (12) the Servicing Fee and (13) a code indicating whether the Mortgage Loan is a Buydown Mortgage Loan.”

3.

Section 3.02 of the Master SWSA is amended by deleting the following language thereof:

“(mm) No Buydowns.

No Mortgage Loan contains provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments are (a) paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account established by the Company, the Mortgagor or anyone on behalf of the Mortgagor, (b) paid by any source other than the Mortgagor or (c) contains any other similar provisions which may constitute a “buydown” provision;”

and inserting in its place:

“(mm) Buydown Mortgage Loans.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan that is a Buydown Mortgage Loan:

(1)

On or before the date of origination of such Mortgage Loan, the Company and the Mortgagor, or the Company, the Mortgagor and the seller of the Mortgaged Property or a third party entered into a Buydown Agreement. The Buydown Agreement provides that the seller of the Mortgaged Property (or third party) shall deliver to the Company temporary Buydown Funds in an amount equal to the aggregate undiscounted amount of payments that, when added to the amount the Mortgagor on such Mortgage Loan is obligated to pay on each Due Date in accordance with the terms of the Buydown Agreement, is equal to the full scheduled Monthly Payment due on such Mortgage Loan. The temporary Buydown Funds enable the Mortgagor to qualify for the Buydown Mortgage Loan. The effective interest rate of a Buydown Mortgage Loan if less than the interest rate set forth in the related Mortgage Note will increase within the Buydown Period as provided in the related Buydown Agreement so that the effective interest rate will be equal to the interest rate as set forth in the related Mortgage Note. The Buydown Mortgage Loan satisfies the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac guidelines;

(2)

The Mortgage and Mortgage Note reflect the permanent payment terms rather than the payment terms of the Buydown Agreement. The Buydown Agreement provides for the payment by the Mortgagor of the full amount of the Monthly Payment on any Due Date that the Buydown Funds are available. The Buydown Funds were not used to reduce the original principal balance of the Mortgage Loan or to increase the Appraised Value of the Mortgage Property when calculating the Loan-to-Value Ratios for purposes of the Agreement and, if the Buydown Funds were provided by the Company and if required under Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac guidelines, the terms of the Buydown Agreement were disclosed to the Qualified Appraiser of the Mortgaged Property;

(3)

The Buydown Funds may not be refunded to the Mortgagor unless the Mortgagor makes a principal payment for the outstanding balance of the Mortgage Loan; and

(4)

As of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, the provisions of the related Buydown Agreement complied with the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac regarding buydown agreements;”

4.

Section 4.06 of the Master SWSA is amended by inserting the language “all payments on account of Buydown Funds; and (iii)” immediately following “(ii)”.

5.

Section 4.07 of the Master SWSA is amended by deleting the language “and (viii)” and inserting in its place the language “(viii) to remit to Purchaser payments on account of Buydown Funds as applicable; and (ix)”.

6.

Article IV of the Master SWSA is amended by inserting the following (and the Table of Contents is updated accordingly):

“Section 4.22  Application of Buydown Funds.

With respect to each Buydown Mortgage Loan, the Company shall have deposited into the Escrow Account, no later than the last day of the month, Buydown Funds in an amount equal to the aggregate undiscounted amount of payments that, when added to the amount the Mortgagor on such Mortgage Loan is obligated to pay on all Due Dates in accordance with the terms of the Buydown Agreement, is equal to the full scheduled Monthly Payments which are required to be paid by the Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Note (without regard to the related Buydown Agreement as if the Mortgage Loan were not subject to the terms of the Buydown Agreement). With respect to each Buydown Mortgage Loan, the Company will distribute to the Purchaser on each Remittance Date an amount of Buydown Funds equal to the amount that, when added to the amount required to be paid on such date by the related Mortgagor, pursuant to and in accordance with the related Buydown Agreement, equals the full Monthly Payment that would otherwise be required to be paid on such Mortgage Loan by the related Mortgagor under the terms of the related Mortgage Note (as if the Mortgage Loan were not a Buydown Mortgage Loan and without regard to the related Buydown Agreement).

If the Mortgagor on a Buydown Mortgage Loan defaults on such Mortgage Loan during the Buydown Period and the Mortgaged Property securing such Buydown Mortgage Loan is sold in the liquidation thereof (either by the Company or the insurer under any related Primary Insurance Policy) the Company shall, on the Remittance Date following the date upon which Liquidation Proceeds or REO Disposition proceeds are received with respect to any such Buydown Mortgage Loan, distribute to the Purchaser all remaining Buydown Funds for such Mortgage Loan then remaining in the Escrow Account. Pursuant to the terms of each Buydown Agreement, any amounts distributed to the Purchaser in accordance with the preceding sentence will be applied to reduce the outstanding principal balance of the related Buydown Mortgage Loan. If a Mortgagor on a Buydown Mortgage Loan prepays such Mortgage Loan in it entirety during the related Buydown Period, the Company shall be required to withdraw from the Escrow Account any Buydown Funds remaining in the Escrow Account with respect to such Buydown Mortgage Loan in accordance with the related Buydown Agreement. If a principal prepayment by a Mortgagor on a Buydown Mortgage Loan during the related Buydown Period, together with any Buydown Funds then remaining in the Escrow Account related to such Buydown Mortgage Loan, would result in a principal prepayment of the entire unpaid principal balance of the Buydown Mortgage Loan, the Company shall distribute to the Purchaser on the Remittance Date occurring in the month immediately succeeding the month in which such Principal Prepayment is received, all Buydown Funds related to such Mortgage Loan so remaining in the Escrow Account, together with any amounts required to be deposited into the Custodial Account.”

7.

Section 5.01 of the Master SWSA is amended by deleting the period at the end of the first paragraph and inserting in its place the following language “; and minus (e) any amounts attributable to Buydown Funds being held in the Custodial Account, which amounts shall be remitted on the Remittance Date next succeeding the Due Period for such amounts.”

8.

Article XII of the Master SWSA is amended by inserting the following (and the Table of Contents is updated accordingly):

“Section 12.15 Buydown Loan Aggregate Limitation. The aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Buydown Mortgage Loans in a Loan Package (the “Actual Buydown Balance”) shall not, at any time, be greater than an amount equal to one half percent (1/2%) of the aggregate outstanding principal balance of all Mortgage Loans in such Loan Package (the “Buydown Limit”). In the event that, at any time, the Actual Buydown Balance is greater than an amount equal to the Buydown Limit, the Company shall, upon the request of the Purchaser, repurchase at the Repurchase Price within (10) Business Days of such request any Buydown Mortgage Loan(s) in such Loan Package; provided, however, that the Actual Buydown Balance immediately after such repurchase shall be no greater than the Buydown Loan Limit. The Company shall promptly provide notice to the Purchaser whenever the Actual Buydown Balance is greater than the Buydown Limit.

9.

Except as expressly amended and modified by this Amendment, the Master SWSA shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.

10.

This Amendment shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York, and the obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined in accordance with such laws.

11.

This Amendment may be executed in one or more counterparts and by different parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall constitute one and the same agreement.

12.

This Amendment shall inure to the benefit of and be binding upon the Assignee, the Purchaser and the Servicer under the Master SWSA, and their respective successors and permitted assigns.


13.

Any capitalized term, not otherwise herein defined, shall have the meaning set forth in the Master SWSA.

(r)

Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Company 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 Company’s reasonable and prudent determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the Purchaser, provided, however, the Company shall not make any future advances with respect to a Mortgage Loan.  Unless the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Company, imminent, the Company 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 change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan. The Company shall request written consent from the Purchaser to permit such a modification and the Purchaser shall provide written consent or notify the Company of its objection to such modification within five (5) Business Days after its receipt of the Company’s request. In the event of any such modification which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments on any Mortgage Loan, the Company shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment has been deferred, deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds, in accordance with Section 5.03, 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 Company shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan hazard insurance such that all buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are insured by an insurer acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary or required by law 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. In the event a hazard insurance policy shall be in danger of being terminated, or in the event the insurer shall cease to be acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, the Company shall notify the Purchaser and the related Mortgagor, and shall use its best efforts, as permitted by applicable law, to obtain from another qualified insurer a replacement hazard insurance policy substantially and materially similar in all respects to the original policy. In no event, however, shall a Mortgage Loan be without a hazard insurance policy at any time, subject only to Section 4.11 hereof.

If the related Mortgaged Property is located in an area identified 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 a Mortgage is secured by a unit in a condominium project, the Company 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 Company 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.

In the event that any Purchaser or the Company 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 Company 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 Company 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 Company shall not interfere with the Mortgagor’s freedom of choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Company shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies are acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and are licensed to do business in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located. The Company 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.

Pursuant to Section 4.04, any amounts collected by the Company 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 Company’s normal servicing procedures as specified in Section 4.14) shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05.

Section 4.11

Maintenance of Mortgage Impairment Insurance.

In the event that the Company 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 (1) names the Company as loss payee, (2) provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Section 4.10 without coinsurance and (3) otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 4.10, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 4.10. The Company shall prepare and make any claims on the blanket policy as deemed necessary by the Company in accordance with prudent servicing practices. Any amounts collected by the Company under any such policy relating to a Mortgage Loan shall be deposited in the Custodial Account subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05. 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 4.10, and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, the Company shall deposit in the Custodial Account at the time of such loss the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause, such amount to be deposited from the Company’s funds, without reimbursement therefor. Upon request of any Purchaser, the Company shall cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certified true copy of such policy and a statement from the insurer thereunder that such policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without 30 days’ prior written notice to such Purchaser.

Section 4.12

Maintenance of Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions insurance.

The Company 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 (“Company 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 Company against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of such Company Employees. Such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy also shall protect and insure the Company against losses in connection with the release or satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this Section 4.12 requiring such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall diminish or relieve the Company from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum coverage under any such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall be at least equal to the amounts acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac. Upon the request of any Purchaser, the Company shall cause to be delivered to such Purchaser a certificate of insurance for such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy and a statement from the surety and the insurer that such Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without 30 days’ prior written notice to the Purchaser.

Section 4.13

Inspections.

If any Mortgage Loan is more than sixty (60) days delinquent, the Company 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 Company shall keep a written report of each such inspection.

Section 4.14

Restoration of Mortgaged Property.

The Company need not obtain the approval of the Purchaser 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 Company shall comply with the following conditions in connection with any such release of Insurance Proceeds or Condemnation Proceeds:

(i)

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

(ii)

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

(iv)

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

If the Purchaser is named as an additional loss payee, the Company is hereby empowered to endorse any loss draft issued in respect of such a claim in the name of the Purchaser.

Section 4.15

Maintenance of PMI Policy; Claims.

With respect to each Mortgage Loan with an LTV in excess of 80%, the Company shall, without any cost to the Purchaser maintain in full force and effect a PMI Policy insuring the portion over 78% until terminated pursuant to the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998, 12 USC §4901, et seq. In the event that such PMI Policy shall be terminated other than as required by law, the Company shall obtain from another Qualified Insurer a comparable replacement policy, with a total coverage equal to the remaining coverage of such terminated PMI Policy. If the insurer shall cease to be a Qualified Insurer, the Company shall determine whether recoveries under the PMI Policy are jeopardized for reasons related to the financial condition of such insurer, it being understood that the Company shall in no event have any responsibility or liability for any failure to recover under the PMI Policy for such reason. If the Company determines that recoveries are so jeopardized, it shall notify the Purchaser and the Mortgagor, if required, and obtain from another Qualified Insurer a replacement insurance policy. The Company 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 Company would have been covered thereunder. In connection with any assumption or substitution agreement entered into or to be entered into pursuant to Section 6.01, the Company 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 Company shall obtain a replacement PMI Policy as provided above.

In connection with its activities as servicer, the Company agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself and the Purchaser, claims to the insurer under any PMI Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such PMI Policy and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any PMI Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to Section 4.04, any amounts collected by the Company under any PMI Policy shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05.

Section 4.16

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 Purchaser, or in the event the Purchaser 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 Company 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 Purchaser shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the Purchaser.

The Purchaser shall have the option to manage and operate the REO Property provided the Purchaser gives written notice of its intention to do so within thirty (30) days after such REO Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure. The election by the Purchaser to manage the REO Property shall not constitute a termination of any rights of the Company pursuant to Section 11.02.

In the event the Purchaser does not elect to manage its own REO Property, the Company shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property for the Purchaser solely for the purpose of its prompt disposition and sale. The Company, either itself or through an agent selected by the Company, 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 Company 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 Company deems to be in the best interest of the Purchaser.

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

The Company 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 disposition of REO Property shall be carried out by the Company at such price, and upon such terms and conditions, as the Company deems to be in the best interests of the Purchaser. The proceeds of sale of the REO Property shall be promptly deposited in the Custodial Account. As soon as practical thereafter the expenses of such sale shall be paid and the Company shall reimburse itself for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances, unpaid Servicing Fees and unreimbursed advances made pursuant to Section 5.03. On the Remittance Date immediately following the receipt of such sale proceeds, the net cash proceeds of such sale remaining in the Custodial Account shall be distributed to the Purchaser.

The Company 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 Section 4.10 and the fees of any third party managing agent of the Company, or the Company itself. The REO management fee shall be the greater of one percent (1%) of the gross sales price of the REO Property or $1500 per REO Property, provided however, the REO management fee shall not exceed the net Liquidation Proceeds. The Company shall make monthly distributions on each Remittance Date to the Purchaser of the net cash flow from the REO Property (which shall equal the revenues from such REO Property net of the expenses described in this Section 4.16 and of any reserves reasonably required from time to time to be maintained to satisfy anticipated liabilities for such expenses).

Section 4.17

Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 5.02, the Company shall furnish to the Purchaser 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 Company’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 the Purchaser shall reasonably request.

Section 4.18

Liquidation Reports.

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

Section 4.19

Reports of Foreclosures and Abandonments of Mortgaged Property.

Following the foreclosure sale or abandonment of any Mortgaged Property, the Company shall report such foreclosure or abandonment as required pursuant to Section 6050J of the Code. The Company shall file information reports with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a trade or business and information returns relating to cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property as required by the Code. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by the Code.

Section 4.20

Confidentiality/Protection of Customer Information.

Each party agrees that it shall comply with all applicable laws and regulations regarding the privacy or security of Customer Information, and shall maintain appropriate administrative, technical and physical safeguards to protect the security, confidentiality and integrity of Customer Information, including maintaining security measures designed to meet the Interagency Guidelines Establishing Standards for Safeguarding Customer Information, 66 Fed. Reg. 8616, and the rules promulgated thereunder. The Company shall promptly make available to the Purchaser’s regulators information regarding such security measures as requested by such regulators. For purposes of this Section, “Customer Information” means any personal information concerning a Mortgagor that is disclosed to a party to this Agreement by or on behalf of a Mortgagor.

Section 4.21

Disaster Recovery/Business Continuity Plan.

The Company shall establish and maintain contingency plans, recovery plans and proper risk controls to ensure Company’s continued performance under this Agreement. The Company agrees to make available to the Purchaser’s regulators information regarding such plans as requested by such regulators.

PAYMENTS TO PURCHASER

Section 5.01

Remittances.

On each Remittance Date, the Company shall remit by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the Purchaser (a) all amounts deposited in the Custodial Account as of the close of business on the Determination Date (net of charges against or withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05), plus (b) all amounts, if any, which the Company is obligated to distribute pursuant to Section 5.03, minus (c) any amounts attributable to Principal Prepayments received after the applicable Principal Prepayment Period which amounts shall be remitted on the following Remittance Date, together with any additional interest required to be deposited in the Custodial Account in connection with such Principal Prepayment in accordance with Section 4.04(viii); and minus (d) any amounts attributable to Monthly Payments collected but due on a Due Date or Dates subsequent to the first day of the month of the Remittance Date.

With respect to any remittance received by the Purchaser after the next Business Day following the Business Day on which such payment was due, the Company shall pay to the Purchaser interest on any such late payment at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted as of the date of each change, plus three percentage points, but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall be deposited in the Custodial Account by the Company on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period commencing with the day following such second Business Day and ending with the Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. Such interest shall be remitted along with the distribution payable on the next succeeding Remittance Date. The payment by the Company of any such interest shall not be deemed an extension of time for payment or a waiver of any Event of Default by the Company.

Section 5.02

Statements to Purchaser.

Not later than the tenth (10th)Business Day of each month, the Company shall furnish to the Purchaser in either written or electronic format, a monthly remittance advice, in a form mutually acceptable to the Company and the Purchaser, with a trial balance report attached thereto, as to the period ending on the last day of the preceding month.

Section 5.03

Monthly Advances by Company.

On the Business Day immediately preceding each Remittance Date, the Company shall deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds or from amounts held for future distribution 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 or which were deferred pursuant to Section 4.01. Any amounts held for future distribution and so used shall be replaced by the Company by deposit in the Custodial Account on or before any future Remittance Date if funds in the Custodial Account on such Remittance Date shall be less than payments to the Purchaser required to be made on such Remittance Date. The Company’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 earlier of: (i) 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 Mortgage Loan; and (ii) the Remittance Date prior to the date the Mortgage Loan is converted to REO Property, provided however, that if requested by a Rating Agency (hereinafter defined) in connection with a securitization, the Company shall be obligated to make such advances through the Remittance Date prior to the date on which cash is received in connection with the liquidation of REO Property; provided, however, that such obligation shall cease if the Company determines, in its sole reasonable opinion, that advances with respect to such Mortgage Loan are non-recoverable by the Company from Liquidation Proceeds, REO Disposition Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, or otherwise with respect to a particular Mortgage Loan. In the event that the Company determines that any such advances are non-recoverable, the Company shall provide the Purchaser with a certificate signed by two officers of the Company evidencing such determination. For purposes of this paragraph, “Rating Agency” shall mean Moody’s Investors Services, Inc., Standard & Poor’s Ratings Services, Fitch, Inc., or any other nationally recognized statistical credit rating agency.


ARTICLE VI

GENERAL SERVICING PROCEDURES

Section 6.01

Transfers of Mortgaged Property.

The Company 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 Company 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 Company 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, if any.

If the Company reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, the Company 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 Company is unable under applicable law to require that the original Mortgagor remain liable under the Mortgage Note and the Company has the prior consent of thee primary mortgage guaranty insurer, a substitution of liability agreement with the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property pursuant to which the original Mortgagor is released from liability and the purchaser of the Mortgaged Property is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the Mortgage Note. If an assumption fee is collected by the Company for entering into an assumption agreement the fee will be retained by the Company as additional servicing compensation. In connection with any such assumption, neither the Mortgage Interest Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note, the term of the Mortgage Loan, the outstanding principal amount of the Mortgage Loan nor any other materials teens shall be changed without Purchaser’s consent.

To the extent that any Mortgage Loan is assumable, the Company shall inquire diligently into the credit worthiness of the proposed transferee, and shall use the underwriting criteria for approving the credit of the proposed transferee which are used with respect to underwriting mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loans. If the credit worthiness of the proposed transferee does not meet such underwriting criteria, the Company 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 6.02

Satisfaction of Mortgages and Release of Mortgage Files.

Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Company of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Company shall notify the Purchaser in the monthly remittance advice as provided in Section 5.02, and may request the release of any Mortgage Loan Documents.

If the Company satisfies or releases a Mortgage without first having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or should the Company otherwise prejudice any rights the Purchaser may have under the mortgage instruments, upon written demand of the Purchaser, the Company shall repurchase the related Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price by deposit thereof in the Custodial Account within (two) 2 Business Days of receipt of such demand by the Purchaser. The Company shall maintain the Fidelity Bond and Errors and Omissions Insurance Policy as provided for in Section 4.12 insuring the Company against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

Section 6.03

Servicing Compensation.

As compensation for its services hereunder, the Company shall be entitled to withdraw from the Custodial Account the amount of its Servicing Fee. The Servicing Fee shall be payable monthly and shall be computed on the basis of the same unpaid scheduled principal balance and for the period respecting which any related interest payment on a Mortgage Loan is computed. The obligation of the Purchaser to pay the Servicing Fee is limited to, and payable solely from, the interest portion of such Monthly Payments. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to the payment of the Servicing Fee for any month, the aggregate Servicing Fee shall be reduced (but not below zero) by an amount equal to the Prepayment Interest Shortfall for such Remittance Date relating to the Mortgage Loans.

Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, to the extent provided in Section 6.01, and late payment charges shall be retained by the Company to the extent not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account. The Company 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 6.04

Annual Statement as to Compliance.

The Company shall deliver to the Purchaser, on or before February 28 of each year, beginning February 28, 2003, an Officer’s Certificate, stating that (i) a review of the activities of the Company during the preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement or similar agreements has been made under such officer’s supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Company 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 Company to cure such default.

Section 6.05

Annual Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Report.

On or before February 28 of each year, beginning February 28, 2003, the Company, at its expense, shall cause a firm of independent public accountants which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement to each Purchaser to the effect that such firm has examined certain documents and records relating to the servicing of the mortgage loans similar in nature 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 substantially in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, 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. By providing Purchaser a copy of a Uniform Single Attestation Program Report from their independent public accountant’s on an annual basis, Company shall be considered to have fulfilled its obligations under this Section 6.05.

Section 6.06

Right to Examine Company Records.

The Purchaser, or its designee, shall have the right to examine and audit any and all of the books, records, or other information of the Company, whether held by the Company or by another on its behalf, with respect to or concerning this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans, during business hours or at such other times as may be reasonable under applicable circumstances, upon reasonable advance notice. The Purchaser shall pay its own travel expenses associated with such examination.

Section 6.07

Compliance with REMIC Provisions.

If a REMIC election has been made with respect to the arrangement under which the Mortgage Loans and REO Property are held, the Company shall not take any action, cause the 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 (i) endanger the status of the REMIC as a REMIC or (ii) result in the imposition of a tax upon the REMIC (including but not limited to the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined in Section 860 (a) (2) of the Code and the tax on “contributions” to a REMIC set forth in Section 860 (d) of the Code) unless the Company has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense of the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated action will not endanger such REMIC status or result in the imposition of any such tax.

The Company also shall make available any comparable interim statements to the extent any such statements have been prepared by or on behalf of the Company (and are available upon request to members or stockholders of the Company or to the public at large).

The Company also shall make available to Purchaser or prospective purchasers a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting recent developments affecting the Company or the financial statements of the Company, and to permit any prospective Purchaser to inspect the Company’s servicing facilities for the purpose of satisfying such prospective Purchaser that the Company has the ability to service the Mortgage Loans as provided in this Agreement.

Section 7.03

The Company shall cooperate with the Purchaser in servicing the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the usual and customary requirements of any credit enhancement, risk management and other service providers and shall otherwise cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with such third party service providers and the provision of third party services; provided, however, that such requirements are reasonably acceptable to the Company and pose no greater risk, obligation or expense to the Company than otherwise set forth in this Agreement.

Neither the Company nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Company shall be under any liability to the Purchaser 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 Company 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 other liability which would otherwise be imposed under this Agreement. The Company and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Company 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 Company 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 Company may, with the consent of the Purchaser, undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto. In such event, the Company shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Purchaser of the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action.

Section 8.04

Limitation on Resignation and Assignment by Company.

The Purchaser has entered into this Agreement with the Company and subsequent purchasers will purchase the Mortgage Loans in reliance upon the independent status of the Company, and the representations as to the adequacy of its servicing facilities, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing, and the continuance thereof. Therefore, the Company shall neither assign this Agreement or the servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or duties hereunder or any portion hereof or sell or otherwise dispose of all of its property or assets without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

The Company shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Company and the Purchaser or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Company. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Company shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Purchaser which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Purchaser. No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed the Company’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 12.01.

Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section 8.04, in the event that the Company 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 Purchaser, then the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this Agreement upon notice given as set forth in Section 10.01, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any liability whatsoever to the Company or any third party.

(e)

indemnify the Purchaser for any material misstatements or omissions contained in the information provided pursuant to (d) above, provided that the Purchaser shall also provide indemnification to the Company, it successors or assigns, with respect to the accuracy of all other information the Purchaser may disclose in any securitization offering materials; and

The Purchaser shall pay all preparation and recording costs associated therewith if the Assignments of Mortgage have not been previously prepared and recorded in Purchaser’s name. The Company shall execute each Assignment, track such Assignments to ensure they have been recorded and deliver them as required by the trustee upon the Company’s receipt thereof. Additionally, the Company shall prepare and execute, at the direction of the Purchaser, any note endorsements in connection with any and all seller/servicer agreements.

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 September 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 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.
