ARTICLE II

Conveyance of HELOCs

Section 2.01.Conveyance of HELOCs; Obligation to Fund Advances Under Credit Line Agreements.

(a)          As of the Closing Date, in consideration of the Issuer’s delivery of the proceeds from the sale of the Notes, and the Certificates, to the Seller, and concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Seller does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over, deposit with and otherwise convey to the Depositor, without recourse, and the Depositor does hereby sell, transfer, assign, set over, deposit with and otherwise convey to the Issuer, without recourse, and the Issuer, pursuant to the Indenture, is granting to the Indenture Trustee, all of its right, title and interest in and to the HELOCs. Such conveyances include, without limitation, (i) each HELOC, including its principal balance (including the right to make Draws related thereto) and all collections in respect thereof received after the Cut-Off Date (excluding interest collections due on or prior to the Cut-Off Date); (ii) property that secured a HELOC that is acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure; (iii) the Originator’s rights under the Insurance Policies; (iv) the Master Servicer Collection Account, the Payment Account; and (v) any proceeds of the foregoing and any other property owned by the Trust and all other assets included or to be included in the Issuer for the benefit of Noteholders and the Certificateholders; provided, however, none of the Indenture Trustee, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer nor the Issuer assumes or shall assume the obligation under any Credit Line Agreement that provides for the funding of Draws to the Mortgagor thereunder, and none of , the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer nor the Indenture Trustee shall be obligated or permitted to fund any such Draws. With respect to the HELOCs, Draws shall be part of the related principal balance and are hereby transferred to the Issuer on the Closing Date pursuant to this Section 2.01(a), and are therefore part of the Trust Estate. The Indenture Trustee declares that, subject to the Custodian’s review provided for in Section 2.02, it, or the Custodian on its behalf, has received and shall hold the Trust Estate, as Indenture Trustee, in trust, for the benefit and use of the Noteholders and for the purposes and subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this Agreement, and the Indenture, and, concurrently with such receipt, the Issuer has issued and delivered the Notes to or upon the order of the Depositor, in exchange for the Trust Estate. The Depositor, concurrently with the execution and delivery hereof, does hereby transfer, assign, set over and otherwise convey in trust to the Issuer without recourse all the right, title and interest of the Depositor in and to the REMIC I Regular Interests for the benefit of the holders of the Notes, the Class E Certificates and the Class R Certificates. The Issuer acknowledges receipt of the REMIC I Regular Intersts (which are uncetificated) and declares that it holds and will hold the same in trust for the exclusive use and benefit of the holders of the Notes, the Class E Certificates and the Class R Certificates.

(b)          The Securities Administrator does hereby agree to direct funds from the holder of the Class S Certificates to reimburse Servicer advances made to fund additional Draws on the HELOCs. Each additional balance during the Managed Amortization Period shall first be funded from collections of principal deposited in an account managed by the Servicer. On a designated remittance date, as described in the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall, to the extent set forth in the Servicing Agreement, then deliver to the holder of the Class S Certificate, with a copy to the Master Servicer, its monthly remittance report, which shall indicate the aggregate additional balance funded by the Servicer. To the extent that the purchase price for any additional balance exceeds such principal amount on deposit in such collection account on such day, during the Managed Amortization Period, the difference shall be funded by the Class S Certificateholder. During the Rapid Amortization Period, the entire balance of additional Draws shall be funded by the Class S Certificateholder. The Holder of the Class S Certificate, by accepting such Certificate, hereby agrees to reimburse the Servicer for such aggregate advances, which is the amount by which the principal balance of the Class S Certificate shall accumulate each month.

(c)It is agreed and understood by the Seller, the Depositor and the Issuer (and the Depositor so represents and recognizes) that it is not intended that any HELOC to be included in the Trust Estate be (i) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Jersey Home Ownership Act effective November 27, 2003, (ii) a “High-Cost Home Loan” as defined in the New Mexico Home Loan Protection Act effective January 1, 2004, (iii) a “High-Cost Home Mortgage Loan” as defined in the Massachusetts Predatory Home Loan Practices Act effective November 7, 2004 or (iv) a “High Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Indiana Home Loan Practices Act effective January 1, 2005.

(d)In connection with such transfers and assignments of the HELOCs, the Seller shall deliver to, and deposit with, or cause to be delivered to and deposited with, the Indenture Trustee, and/or the Custodian acting on the Indenture Trustee’s behalf, the following documents or instruments with respect to each HELOC so transferred and assigned on or before the Closing Date:

(i) the original Credit Line Agreement;

(ii)if such HELOC is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, an original Assignment of Mortgage in blank;

(iii)(A) if such HELOC is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, the original recorded Mortgage or, if in connection with such HELOC, the original recorded Mortgage with evidence of recording thereon cannot be delivered on or prior to the Closing Date because of a delay caused by the public recording office where such original Mortgage has been delivered for recordation or because such original Mortgage has been lost, the Originator shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian, a true and correct copy of such Mortgage, together with (i) in the case of a delay caused by the public recording office, a certification of the Originator, title company, escrow agent or closing attorney stating that such original Mortgage has been dispatched to the appropriate public recording official or (ii) in the case of an original Mortgage that has been lost, a certificate by the appropriate county recording office where such Mortgage is recorded, and (B) if such HELOC is a MERS Mortgage Loan, the original Mortgage, noting the presence of the “Mortgage Identification Number” of such MERS Mortgage Loan;

(iv)if such HELOC is not a MERS Mortgage Loan, if applicable, the original Intervening Assignments, if any, with evidence of recording thereon, showing a complete chain of title to the related Mortgage from the Mortgagor to the related Originator (and endorsed in blank in accordance with clause (ii) above) or, if any such original Intervening Assignment has not been returned from the applicable recording office or has been lost, a true and correct copy thereof, together with (i) in the case of a delay caused by the public recording office, a certification of the Originator, title company, escrow agent or closing attorney stating that such original Intervening Assignment has been dispatched to the appropriate public recording official for recordation or (ii) in the case of an original Intervening Assignment that has been lost, a certificate by the appropriate county recording office where such Mortgage is recorded;

(v)          either a title insurance policy or guaranty title with respect to the related Mortgaged Property;

(vi) the original of any guaranty executed in connection with such HELOC;

(vii)the original of each assumption, modification, consolidation or substitution agreement, if any, relating to such HELOC; and

(viii)any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent instrument executed in connection with the related Mortgage.

(e)(i) Upon the occurrence of a Recordation Event, the Originator shall submit to the appropriate recording offices Assignments of Mortgage to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Trust, which may be blanket assignments if permitted by applicable law, for the HELOCs. In lieu of recording any such Assignments of Mortgage, the Originator may provide to the Indenture Trustee an Opinion of Counsel in a form reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee, to the effect that recordation of an Assignment of Mortgage in the state where the related Mortgaged Property is located is not necessary to protect the interests of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders in the related Mortgage. In the event that any such Assignment of Mortgage is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Originator shall promptly prepare a substitute Assignment of Mortgage or cure such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter the Originator shall submit each such Assignment of Mortgage for recording.

(ii)          In instances where a title insurance policy is required to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee under clause (d)(v) above and is not so delivered, the Seller shall provide a copy of such title insurance policy to the Indenture Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, as promptly as practicable after the execution and delivery hereof, but in any case within 180 days of the Closing Date.

(iii)For HELOCs (if any) that have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date and prior to the Closing Date, the Depositor, in lieu of delivering the above documents, herewith shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, 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 pursuant to the Servicing Agreement have been so deposited. All original documents that are not delivered to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall be held by the Servicer in trust for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders.

Section 2.02. Acceptance of HELOCs by the Issuer.

(a)          The Issuer acknowledges the sale, transfer and assignment of the Trust Estate to it by the Depositor and receipt of, subject to further review by the Custodian and the exceptions which may be noted by the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, pursuant to the procedures described below, and the Issuer will cause the Custodian to hold, the documents (or certified copies thereof) delivered to the Custodian, pursuant to Section 2.01, and any amendments, replacements or supplements thereto and all other assets of the Trust Estate delivered to it, in trust for the use and benefit of (i) all present and future Holders of the Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture and the Certificates issued pursuant to the Trust Agreement and (ii) the Note Insurer. On the Closing Date, with

respect to the HELOCs, in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, the Custodian shall acknowledge with respect to each HELOC by delivery to the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer and the Issuer of an Initial Certification, receipt of the Mortgage File, but without review of such Mortgage File, except to the extent necessary to confirm that such Mortgage File contains the related Mortgage Note or lost note affidavit. No later than 90 days after the Closing Date (or with respect to any Substitute Mortgage Loan, within five Business Days after the receipt by the Custodian thereof), the Custodian, in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, shall review each Mortgage File delivered to it and shall execute and deliver to the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer, and the Issuer an Interim Certification. In conducting such review, the Custodian will ascertain whether all documents required to be reviewed by it have been executed and received, and based on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, whether the Mortgage Notes relate, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the HELOCs it has received, as identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule. In performing any such review, the Custodian may conclusively rely on the purported due execution and genuineness of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. If the Custodian finds any document constituting part of the Mortgage File has not been executed or received, or is unrelated, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the HELOCs identified in Exhibit A, or does not conform on its face to the review criteria specified in this Section (a “Material Defect”), the Custodian shall notify the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee of such Material Defect in writing. In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall correct or cure any such Material Defect within ninety (90) days from the date of notice from the Custodian of the defect and if the Seller fails to correct or cure the Material Defect within such period, the Indenture Trustee shall enforce the Seller’s obligation under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to provide a Substitute HELOC or purchase such HELOC at the Repurchase Price; provided, however, that if such Material Defect relates solely to the inability of the Seller to deliver the original Security Instrument or intervening assignments thereof, or a certified copy because the originals of such documents, or a certified copy have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to purchase or replace such HELOC if the Seller delivers such original documents or certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. The foregoing repurchase or substitution obligation shall not apply in the event that the Seller cannot deliver such original or copy of any document submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office in the applicable jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by such office; provided that the Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such recording office or, if such receipt is not available, a certificate confirming that such documents have been accepted for recording, and delivery to the Custodian shall be effected by the Seller within thirty days of its receipt of the original recorded document.

(b)No later than 180 days after the Closing Date, the Custodian, in accordance with the Custodial Agreement, will review the Mortgage Files delivered to it and will execute and deliver or cause to be executed and delivered to the Depositor, the Seller, the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer and the Issuer a Final Certification. In conducting such review, the Custodian will ascertain whether an original of each document required to be recorded has been returned from the recording office with evidence of recording thereon or a certified copy has been obtained from the recording office. If the Custodian finds a Material

Defect, the Custodian shall promptly notify the Seller, the Depositor, the Master Servicer, the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee in writing (provided, however, that with respect to those documents described in subsections (b)(iv), (v) and (vii) of Section 2.01, the Custodian’s obligations shall extend only to the documents actually delivered to the Custodian pursuant to such subsections). In accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, the Seller shall correct or cure any such Material Defect within 90 days from the date of notice from the Custodian or the Indenture Trustee of the Material Defect and if the Seller is unable to cure such Material Defect within such period, and if such Material Defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders or Certificateholders in the related HELOC, the Indenture Trustee shall enforce the Seller’s obligation under the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement to provide a Substitute Mortgage Loan or purchase such HELOC at the Repurchase Price; provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of the Seller to deliver the original Security Instrument or intervening assignments thereof, or a certified copy, because the originals of such documents or a certified copy, have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to purchase or replace such HELOC, if the Seller delivers such original documents or certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. The foregoing repurchase or substitution obligation shall not apply in the event that the Seller cannot deliver such original or copy of any document submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office in the applicable jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by such office; provided that the Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such recording office or, if such receipt is not available, a certificate confirming that such documents have been accepted for recording, and delivery to the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee shall be effected by the Seller within thirty days of its receipt of the original recorded document.

(c)In the event that a HELOC is purchased by the Seller in accordance with Subsections 2.02(a) or (b) above, the Seller shall remit to the Master Servicer the Repurchase Price for deposit in the Master Servicer Collection Account and the Seller shall provide to the Master Servicer, Securities Administrator, the Note Insurer and the Indenture Trustee written notification detailing the components of the Repurchase Price. Upon deposit of the Repurchase Price in the Master Servicer Collection Account, the Depositor shall notify the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer and the Custodian, and the Indenture Trustee (upon receipt of a Request for Release in the form of Exhibit B attached hereto with respect to such HELOC and certification that the Repurchase Price has been deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account) shall cause the Custodian to release to the Seller the related Mortgage File and the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, representation or warranty, furnished to it by the Seller, as are necessary to vest in the Seller title to and rights under the HELOC. Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Repurchase Price in available funds is deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule, which was previously delivered to it by the Depositor in a form agreed to between the Depositor, the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian, to reflect such repurchase and shall promptly deliver to the Rating Agencies, the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer, the Custodian and the Issuer a copy of such amendment. The obligation of the Seller to repurchase or substitute for any HELOC a Substitute Mortgage Loan as to which such a Material Defect in a constituent document exists shall be the sole remedy respecting such Material Defect available to the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders or to the Indenture Trustee or Owner Trustee, as applicable, on their behalf.

Section 2.03.Assignment of Interest in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. (a) The Depositor hereby assigns to the Issuer, all of its right, title and interest in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, including but not limited to the Depositor’s rights and obligations pursuant to the Servicing Agreement (noting that the Seller has retained the right in the event of breach of the representations, warranties and covenants, if any, with respect to the HELOCs of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement to enforce the provisions thereof and to seek all or any available remedies). The Depositor hereby acknowledges that such right, title and interest in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, will be pledged by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture. The obligations of the Seller to substitute or repurchase, as applicable, a HELOC shall be the Issuer’s, the Indenture Trustee’s and the Noteholders’ and the Certificateholder’s sole remedy for any breach thereof. At the request of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor shall take such actions as may be necessary to enforce the above right, title and interest on behalf of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders and shall execute such further documents as the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee may reasonably require in order to enable the Indenture Trustee to carry out such enforcement.

(b)If the Depositor, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Custodian, the Issuer, the Note Insurer or the Indenture Trustee discovers a breach of any of the representations and warranties set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, which breach materially and adversely affects the value of the interests of the Issuer, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders, the Note Insurer or the Indenture Trustee in the related HELOC, the party discovering the breach shall give prompt written notice of the breach to the other parties. The Seller, within 90 days of its discovery or receipt of notice that such breach has occurred (whichever occurs earlier), shall cure the breach in all material respects or, subject to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, shall purchase the HELOC or any property acquired with respect thereto from the Issuer; provided, however, that if there is a breach of any representation set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, and the HELOC or the related property acquired with respect thereto has been sold, then the Seller shall pay, in lieu of the Repurchase Price, any excess of the Repurchase Price over the Net Liquidation Proceeds received upon such sale. If the Net Liquidation Proceeds exceed the Repurchase Price, any excess shall be paid to the Seller to the extent not required by law to be paid to the borrower. Any such purchase by the Seller shall be made by providing an amount equal to the Repurchase Price to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Master Servicer Collection Account and written notification detailing the components of such Repurchase Price. The Depositor shall submit to the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian a Request for Release, and the Indenture Trustee shall cause the Custodian to release, upon receipt of certification from the Master Servicer that the Repurchase Price has been deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account, to the Seller the related Mortgage File and the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment furnished to it by the Seller, without recourse, representation or warranty as are necessary to vest in the Seller title to and rights under the HELOC or any property acquired with respect thereto. Such purchase shall be deemed to have occurred on the date on which the Repurchase Price in available funds is deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect such repurchase and shall promptly deliver to the Issuer, Indenture Trustee, Securities Administrator, the Note Insurer, the Custodian and the Rating Agencies a copy of such amendment. Enforcement of the obligation of the Seller to purchase (or substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan for) any HELOC or any property acquired

with respect thereto (or pay the Repurchase Price as set forth in the above proviso) as to which a breach has occurred and is continuing shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Issuer, the Noteholders or the Indenture Trustee on their behalf.

Section 2.04.Substitution of HELOCs. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, in lieu of purchasing a HELOC pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Sections 2.02 or 2.03 of this Agreement, the Seller may, no later than the date by which such purchase by the Seller would otherwise be required, tender to the Indenture Trustee a Substitute Mortgage Loan, if such substitution occurs within two years following the Closing Date, accompanied by a certificate of an authorized officer of the Seller that such Substitute Mortgage Loan conforms to the requirements set forth in the definition of “Substitute Mortgage Loan” in this Agreement. The Indenture Trustee shall cause the Custodian to examine the Mortgage File for any Substitute Mortgage Loan in the manner set forth in Section 2.02(a) and the Indenture Trustee shall cause the Custodian to notify the Seller, in writing, within five Business Days after receipt, whether or not the documents relating to the Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfy the requirements of Section 2.02. Within two Business Days after such notification, the Seller shall provide to the Master Servicer for deposit in the Master Servicer Collection Account the amount, if any, by which the Outstanding Principal Balance as of the next preceding Due Date of the HELOC for which substitution is being made, after giving effect to the Scheduled Principal due on such date, exceeds the Outstanding Principal Balance as of such date of the Substitute Mortgage Loan, after giving effect to Scheduled Principal due on such date, which amount shall be treated for the purposes of this Agreement as if it were the payment by the Seller of the Repurchase Price for the purchase of a HELOC by the Seller. After such notification to the Seller and, if any such excess exists, upon receipt of certification from the Master Servicer that such excess has been deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account, the Indenture Trustee shall accept such Substitute Mortgage Loan which shall thereafter be deemed to be a HELOC hereunder. In the event of such a substitution, accrued interest on the Substitute Mortgage Loan for the month in which the substitution occurs and any Principal Prepayments made thereon during such month shall be the property of the Trust Estate and accrued interest for such month on the HELOC for which the substitution is made and any Principal Prepayments made thereon during such month shall be the property of the Seller. The Scheduled Principal Balance on a Substitute Mortgage Loan due on the Due Date in the month of substitution shall be the property of the Seller and the Scheduled Principal Balance on the HELOC for which the substitution is made due on such Due Date shall be the property of the Trust Estate. Upon acceptance of the Substitute Mortgage Loan (and delivery to the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian of a Request for Release for such HELOC), the Indenture Trustee shall cause the Custodian to release to the Seller the related Mortgage File related to any HELOC released pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or Section 2.04 of this Agreement, as applicable, and shall execute and deliver all instruments of transfer or assignment, without recourse, representation or warranty in form as provided to it as are necessary to vest in the Seller title to and rights under any HELOC released pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement or this Section 2.04, as applicable. The Seller shall deliver to the Custodian the documents related to the Substitute Mortgage Loan in accordance with the provisions of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and Subsection 2.02(b) of this Agreement, as applicable, with the date of acceptance of the Substitute Mortgage Loan deemed to be the Closing Date for purposes of the time periods set forth in those Subsections. The representations and warranties set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement shall be deemed to have been made by the Seller with respect to each Substitute Mortgage Loan as of

the date of acceptance of such HELOC by the Indenture Trustee. The Master Servicer shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect such substitution and shall provide a copy of such amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Custodian and the Rating Agencies. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary, no substitution shall occur unless such substitution takes place prior to two years following the Closing Date.

Section 2.05.Delivery of Opinion of Counsel in Connection with Substitutions and Repurchases.

(a)Notwithstanding any contrary provision of this Agreement, with respect to any HELOC that is not in default or as to which default is not imminent, no repurchase or substitution pursuant to Sections 2.02, 2.03 or 2.04 shall be made unless the Seller delivers to the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer, the Securities Administrator and the Owner Trustee an Opinion of Counsel, addressed to the Indenture Trustee, Note Insurer, Securities Administrator and Owner Trustee, to the effect that such repurchase or substitution would not (i) result in the imposition of the tax on “prohibited transactions” of any REMIC created pursuant to the Indenture or contributions after the Closing Date, as defined in sections 860F(a)(2) and 860G(d) of the Code, respectively, or (ii) cause any REMIC created pursuant to the Indenture to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time that any Notes or Certificates are outstanding. Any HELOC as to which repurchase or substitution was delayed pursuant to this paragraph shall be repurchased or the substitution therefor shall occur (subject to compliance with Sections 2.02, 2.03 or 2.04) upon the earlier of (a) the occurrence of a default or imminent default with respect to such HELOC and (b) receipt by the Indenture Trustee and Owner Trustee of an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Indenture Trustee, Note Insurer and Owner Trustee to the effect that such repurchase or substitution, as applicable, will not result in the events described in clause (i) or clause (ii) of the preceding sentence.

(b)Upon discovery by the Depositor, the Seller or the Master Servicer that any HELOC does not constitute a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of section 860G(a)(3) of the Code, the party discovering such fact shall promptly (and in any event within 5 Business Days of discovery) give written notice thereof to the other parties and the Indenture Trustee, Note Insurer and Owner Trustee. In connection therewith, the Indenture Trustee and Owner Trustee shall require the Seller, at its option, to either (i) substitute, if the conditions in Section 2.04 with respect to substitutions are satisfied, a Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected HELOC, or (ii) repurchase the affected HELOC within 90 days of such discovery in the same manner as it would a HELOC for a breach of representation or warranty in accordance with Section 2.03. The Indenture Trustee shall reconvey to the Seller the HELOC to be released pursuant hereto (and the Custodian shall deliver the related Mortgage File) in the same manner, and on the same terms and conditions, as it would a HELOC repurchased for breach of a representation or warranty in accordance with Section 2.03.

ARTICLE III

Administration and Master Servicing of HELOCs

Section 3.01.Master Servicer. The Master Servicer shall supervise, monitor and oversee the obligations of the Servicer to service and administer the HELOCs in accordance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things which it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with such master servicing and administration. In performing its obligations hereunder, the Master Servicer shall act in a manner consistent with Accepted Master Servicing Practices. Furthermore, the Master Servicer shall oversee and consult with the Servicer as necessary from time-to-time to carry out the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder, shall receive and review certain reports, information and other data provided to the Master Servicer by the Servicer and shall cause the Servicer to perform and observe the covenants, obligations and conditions to be performed or observed by such Servicer under the Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall monitor the Servicer’s servicing activities with respect to the HELOCs, reconcile the results of such monitoring with such information provided in the previous sentence on a monthly basis and coordinate corrective adjustments to the Servicer’s and Master Servicer’s records, and based on such reconciled and corrected information, the Master Servicer shall provide such information to the Securities Administrator as shall be necessary in order for it to prepare the statements specified in Section 7.03 of the Indenture, and prepare any other information and statements required to be forwarded by the Master Servicer hereunder. The Master Servicer shall reconcile the results of its HELOC monitoring with the actual remittances of the Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement.

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

The Master Servicer, Securities Administrator and Indenture Trustee shall provide access to the records and documentation in their possession regarding the related HELOCs and REO Property to the Noteholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the FDIC, such access being afforded only upon reasonable prior written request and during normal business hours at the office of the Master Servicer, Securities Administrator and Indenture Trustee, as the case may be; provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by law, the Master Servicer, Securities Administrator and Indenture Trustee shall not be required to provide access to such records and documentation to the Noteholders if the provision thereof would violate the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor. The Master Servicer, Securities Administrator and Indenture Trustee shall allow representatives of the above entities to photocopy any of the records and documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that covers the Master Servicer, Securities Administrator and Indenture Trustee’s actual costs.

The Indenture Trustee at the request of the Servicer or Master Servicer shall execute and deliver to the Servicer or the Master Servicer, as the case may be, any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents necessary or reasonably desirable to (i) effect the

foreclosure or trustee’s sale with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) take any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment against the Mortgagor; or (iv) enforce any other rights or remedies provided by the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument or otherwise available at law or equity.

Section 3.02.Monitoring of Servicer. (a) In the review of the Servicer’s activities, the Master Servicer may rely upon an officer’s certificate of the Servicer (or similar document signed by an officer of the Servicer) with regard to such Servicer’s compliance with the terms of the Servicing Agreement. In the event that the Master Servicer, in its judgment, determines that the Servicer should be terminated in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, or that a notice should be sent pursuant to the Servicing Agreement with respect to the occurrence of an event that, unless cured, would constitute grounds for such termination, the Master Servicer shall notify the Depositor, the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Note Insurer and the Indenture Trustee thereof and the Master Servicer shall issue such notice or take such other action as it deems appropriate.

(b)The Master Servicer, for the benefit of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders, the Certificateholders and the Note Insurer, shall enforce the obligations of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement, and shall, in the event that a Servicer fails to perform its obligations in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, subject to the preceding paragraph, terminate the rights and obligations of such Servicer thereunder and act as servicer of the related HELOCs or cause the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee to enter into a new Servicing Agreement with a successor servicer selected by the Master Servicer; provided, however, it is understood and acknowledged by the parties hereto that there will be a period of transition (not to exceed 90 days) before the actual servicing functions can be fully transferred to such successor servicer. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of the Servicing Agreement and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Master Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related HELOCs. The Master Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, provided that the Master Servicer shall not be required to prosecute or defend any legal action except to the extent that the Master Servicer shall have received reasonable indemnity for its costs and expenses in pursuing such action.

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

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

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

(f)           No later than four (4) Business Days prior to each Payment Date, the Master Servicer shall provide data to the Securities Administrator (in a format mutually agreed upon) sufficient for the Securities Administrator to make payments on the Notes and, in its role as Certificate Paying Agent, distributions on the Certificates and prepare the monthly statement to Securityholders.

Section 3.03.Fidelity Bond. The Master Servicer, at its expense, shall (i) maintain in effect a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, affording coverage with respect to all directors, officers, employees and other Persons acting on such Master Servicer’s behalf, and covering errors and omissions in the performance of the Master Servicer’s obligations hereunder or (ii) self insure if LaSalle Bank National Association maintains with any Rating Agency the equivalent of a long term unsecured debt rating of “A”. The errors and omissions insurance policy and the fidelity bond referred to in (i) above shall be in such form and amount generally acceptable for entities serving as master servicers or trustees.

Section 3.04.Power to Act; Procedures. The Master Servicer shall master service the HELOCs and shall have full power and authority to do any and all things that it may deem necessary or desirable in connection with the master servicing and administration of the HELOCs, including but not limited to the power and authority (i) to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Issuer, Noteholders and the Indenture Trustee, customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) to consent to transfers of any Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the Mortgage Notes and related Mortgages, (iii) to collect any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds, and (iv) to effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing any HELOC, in each case, in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement, as applicable; provided, however that no such action shall result in a "significant modification" pursuant to Treasury regulation section 1.860G-2(b). The Indenture Trustee shall furnish the Master Servicer, upon written request from a Servicing Officer, with any powers of attorney empowering the Master Servicer or the Servicer to execute and deliver instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release or discharge, and to foreclose upon or otherwise liquidate Mortgaged Property, and to appeal, prosecute or defend in any court action relating to the HELOCs or the Mortgaged Property, in accordance with the Servicing Agreement and this Agreement, and the Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver such other documents, as the Master Servicer may request, to enable the Master Servicer to master service and administer the HELOCs and carry out its duties hereunder, in each case in accor dance with Accepted Master Servicing Practices (and the Indenture Trustee shall have no liability for use or misuse of any such powers of attorney by the Master Servicer or the Servicer). If the Master Servicer or the Indenture Trustee has been advised that it is likely that the laws of the state in which action is to be taken prohibit such action if taken in the name of the Indenture Trustee or that the Indenture Trustee would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state if such action is taken in its name, the Master Servicer shall join with the Indenture Trustee in the appointment of a co-trustee pursuant to Section 6.11 of the Indenture. 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 Issuer or the Indenture Trustee, be deemed to be the agent of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee.

Section 3.05.Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements. To the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement, to the extent HELOCs contain enforceable due-on-sale clauses, the Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of the Servicer to enforce such clauses in accordance with the Servicing Agreement. If applicable law prohibits the enforcement of a due-on-sale clause or such clause is otherwise not enforced in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, and, as a consequence, a HELOC is assumed, the original Mortgagor may be released from liability in accordance with the Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.06.Release of Mortgage Files. (a) Upon becoming aware of the payment in full of any HELOC, or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full has been escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes for payment to Noteholders on the next Payment Date, the Servicer will, if required under the Servicing Agreement, promptly furnish to the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian two copies of a certification substantially in the form of Exhibit B hereto signed by a Servicing Officer or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer (which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such payment that are required to be deposited in the Protected Account maintained by such Servicer pursuant to the Servicing Agreement have been so deposited) and shall request that the Indenture Trustee deliver or cause the Custodian to deliver to such Servicer the related Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Indenture Trustee shall promptly release or cause the Custodian to release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer and the Indenture Trustee shall have no further responsibility with regard to such Mortgage File. Upon any such payment in full, the Servicer is authorized, to give, as agent for the Indenture Trustee, as the mortgagee under the Mortgage that secured the HELOC, an instrument of satisfaction (or assignment of mortgage without recourse) regarding the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, which instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be delivered to the Person or Persons entitled thereto against receipt therefor of such payment, it being understood and agreed that no expenses incurred in connection with such instrument of satisfaction or assignment, as the case may be, shall be chargeable to the Protected Account.

(b)From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of any HELOC and in accordance with the Servicing Agreement, the Indenture Trustee shall execute such documents as shall be prepared and furnished to the Indenture Trustee by the Servicer or the Master Servicer (in form reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee) and as are necessary to the prosecution of any such proceedings. The Indenture Trustee shall, upon the request of the Servicer or the Master Servicer, and delivery to the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian, of two copies of a request for release signed by a Servicing Officer substantially in the form of Exhibit B (or in a mutually agreeable electronic format which will, in lieu of a signature on its face, originate from a Servicing Officer), release or cause the Custodian to release the related Mortgage File held in its or the Custodian’s possession or control to the Servicer or the Master Servicer, as applicable. The Servicer or the Master Servicer shall be obligated to return the Mortgage File to the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian when the need therefor by such Servicer

or the Master Servicer, as it reasonably determines, no longer exists unless the HELOC shall be liquidated, in which case, upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer similar to that hereinabove specified, the Mortgage File shall be released by the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian to the Servicer or the Master Servicer.

Section 3.07.Documents, Records and Funds in Possession of Master Servicer To Be Held for Issuer and Indenture Trustee.

(a)The Master Servicer shall transmit and the Servicer (to the extent required by the Servicing Agreement) shall transmit to the Indenture Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, such documents and instruments coming into the possession of the Master Servicer or the Servicer from time to time as are required by the terms hereof, or in the case of the Servicer, the Servicing Agreement, to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee. Any funds received by the Master Servicer or by the Servicer in respect of any HELOC or which otherwise are collected by the Master Servicer or by the Servicer as Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds in respect of any HELOC shall be held for the benefit of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Owner Trustee subject to the Master Servicer’s right to retain or withdraw from the Master Servicer Collection Account the Master Servicing Compensation and other amounts provided in this Agreement and the right of the Servicer to retain its Servicing Fee and other amounts as provided in the Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall, and (to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement) shall enforce the obligation of the Servicer to, provide access to information and documentation regarding the HELOCs to the Issuer, the Securities Administrator, the Indenture Trustee, and their respective agents and accountants at any time upon reasonable request and during normal business hours, and to Noteholders that are savings and loan associations, banks or insurance companies, the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and the supervisory agents and examiners of such Office and Corporation or examiners of any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority if so required by applicable regulations of the Office of Thrift Supervision or other regulatory authority, such access to be afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request in writing and during normal business hours at the offices of the Master Servicer designated by it. In fulfilling such a request the Master Servicer shall not be responsible for determining the sufficiency of such information.

(b)All Mortgage Files and funds collected or held by, or under the control of, the Master Servicer, in respect of any HELOCs, whether from the collection of principal and interest payments or from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, shall be held by the Master Servicer for and on behalf of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders shall be and remain the sole and exclusive property of the Issuer, subject to the pledge to the Indenture Trustee; provided, however, that the Master Servicer shall be entitled to setoff against, and deduct from, any such funds any amounts that are properly due and payable to the Master Servicer under this Agreement.

Section 3.08. Standard Hazard Insurance and Flood Insurance Policies.

(a)For each HELOC, the Master Servicer shall enforce any obligation of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement to maintain or cause to be maintained standard fire and casualty insurance and, where applicable, flood insurance, all in accordance with the provisions of the Servicing Agreement. It is understood and agreed that such insurance shall be with insurers

meeting the eligibility requirements set forth in the Servicing Agreement and that no earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or to be maintained on property acquired in respect of a defaulted loan, other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and as shall require such additional insurance.

(b)Pursuant to Section 4.01 and 4.02, any amounts collected by the Servicer or the Master Servicer, under any insurance policies (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the property subject to the related Mortgage or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicing Agreement) shall be deposited into the Master Servicer Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.02 and 4.03. Any cost incurred by the Master Servicer or the Servicer in maintaining any such insurance if the Mortgagor defaults in its obligation to do so shall be added to the amount owing under the HELOC where the terms of the HELOC 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 Noteholders and shall be recoverable by the Master Servicer or such Servicer pursuant to Section 4.02 and 4.03.

Section 3.09.Presentment of Claims and Collection of Proceeds. The Master Servicer shall (to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement) cause the Servicer to prepare and present on behalf of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Noteholders and the Certificateholders all claims under the Insurance Policies and take such actions (including the negotiation, settlement, compromise or enforcement of the insured’s claim) as shall be necessary to realize recovery under such policies. Any proceeds disbursed to the Master Servicer (or disbursed to the Servicer and remitted to the Master Servicer) in respect of such policies, bonds or contracts shall be promptly deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account upon receipt, except that any amounts realized that are to be applied to the repair or restoration of the related Mortgaged Property as a condition precedent to the presentation of claims on the related HELOC to the insurer under any applicable Insurance Policy need not be so deposited (or remitted).

Section 3.10. Maintenance of the Insurance Policies.

(a)The Master Servicer shall enforce any provision under the Servicing Agreement prohibiting the Servicer from taking any action that would result in noncoverage under any applicable Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Servicer, would have been covered thereunder. The Master Servicer shall use its best reasonable efforts to enforce any obligation of the Servicer under the Servicing Agreement to keep in force and effect (to the extent that the HELOC requires the Mortgagor to maintain such insurance), insurance applicable to each HELOC in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement. The Master Servicer shall enforce any provision under the Servicing Agreement prohibiting the Servicer from canceling or refusing to renew any such Insurance Policy that is in effect at the date of the initial issuance of the HELOC and is required to be kept in force thereunder except in accordance with the provisions of the Servicing Agreement.

(b)The Master Servicer agrees to cause the Servicer (to the extent required under the Servicing Agreement) to present, on behalf of the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee, the Certificateholders and the Noteholders, claims to the insurer under any Insurance Policies and, in this regard, to take such reasonable action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any

Insurance Policies respecting defaulted HELOCs. Pursuant to Section 4.01 and 4.02, any amounts collected by the Master Servicer or the Servicer under any Insurance Policies shall be deposited in the Master Servicer Collection Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Sections 4.02 and 4.03.

Section 3.11.Indenture Trustee to Retain Possession of Certain Insurance Policies and Documents.

The Indenture Trustee shall retain or shall cause the Custodian to retain possession and custody of the originals (to the extent available) of any Insurance Policies, or certificate of insurance if applicable, and any certificates of renewal as to the foregoing as may be issued from time to time as contemplated by this Agreement. Until all amounts distributable in respect of the Notes have been distributed in full and the Indenture has been satisfied and discharged in accordance with the Indenture, the Indenture Trustee shall also retain, or shall cause the Custodian to retain, possession and custody of each Mortgage File in accordance with and subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Master Servicer shall promptly deliver or cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee, or to the Custodian on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, upon the execution or receipt thereof the originals of any Insurance Policies, any certificates of renewal, and such other documents or instruments that constitute portions of the Mortgage File that come into the possession of the Master Servicer from time to time.

Section 3.12.Realization Upon Defaulted HELOCs. For each HELOC that comes into and continues in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments, the Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of the Servicer (to the extent required under the Servicing Agreement) to foreclose upon, repossess or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of Mortgaged Properties securing such HELOCs, all in accordance with the Servicing Agreement. Pursuant to the Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings or sale; provided, however, that such costs and expenses will be recoverable as servicing advances by the Servicer as contemplated in the Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.13. Compensation for the Master Servicer.

On each Payment Date the Master Servicer will be entitled to all income and gain realized from any investment of funds in the Master Servicer Collection Account, pursuant to Article IV, for the performance of its activities hereunder (the “Master Servicer Compensation”). The Master Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as otherwise provided in this Agreement.

Section 3.14. REO Property.

(a)In the event the Trust Estate acquires ownership of any REO Property in respect of any related HELOC, the deed or certificate of sale shall be issued to the Indenture Trustee, or to its nominee, on behalf of the Noteholders. The Master Servicer shall, to the extent provided in the Servicing Agreement, enforce any obligation of the Servicer to sell any REO Property as expeditiously as possible and in accordance with the provisions of the Servicing Agreement, as

applicable, but in all events subject to the requirements in clause (e) below. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the Master Servicer shall enforce the obligation of the Servicer to protect and conserve, such REO Property in the manner and to the extent required by the Servicing Agreement.

(x) any loss liability or expense required to be covered by the Master Servicer pursuant to this Section 5.03 and (y) any loss, liability or expense already paid by the Depositor in accordance with Section 7.02 of the Trust Agreement.

Section 5.04.Limitations on Liability of the Master Servicer and Others. Subject to the obligation of the Master Servicer to indemnify the Indemnified Persons pursuant to Section 5.03:

(a)Neither the Master Servicer nor any of the directors, officers, employees or agents of the Master Servicer shall be under any liability to the Indemnified Persons, the Depositor, the Trust Estate or the Noteholders for taking any action or for refraining from taking any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Master Servicer or any such Person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of such Person’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.

(b)The Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master 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.

(c)The Master Servicer and any director, officer, employee or agent of the Master Servicer shall be indemnified by the Trust Estate and held harmless thereby against any loss, liability or expense (including reasonable legal fees and disbursements of counsel) incurred on their part that may be sustained in connection with, arising out of, or related to, any claim or legal action (including any pending or threatened claim or legal action) relating to, or the performance of its obligation under, this Agreement, the Indenture, the Custodial Agreement, the Notes, the Assignment Agreement or the Servicing Agreement (except to the extent that the Master Servicer is indemnified by the Servicer thereunder), other than (i) any such loss, liability or expense related to the Master Servicer’s failure to perform its duties in compliance with this Agreement (except as any such loss, liability or expense shall be otherwise reimbursable pursuant to this Agreement), or (ii) any such loss, liability or expense incurred by reason of the Master Servicer’s willful misfeasance, bad faith or gross negligence in the performance of duties hereunder or by reason of reckless disregard of obligations and duties hereunder.

(d)The Master Servicer shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action that is not incidental to its duties under this Agreement and that in its opinion may involve it in any expense or liability; provided, however, the Master Servicer may in its discretion undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable with respect to this Agreement, the Trust Agreement or the Indenture and the rights and duties of the parties hereto and the interests of the Noteholders and Certificateholders hereunder and thereunder. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities of the Trust Estate, and the Master Servicer shall be entitled to be reimbursed therefor out of the Master Servicer Collection Account as provided by Section 4.03. Nothing in this Subsection 5.04(d) shall affect the Master Servicer’s obligation to supervise, or to take such actions as are necessary to ensure, the servicing and administration of the HELOCs pursuant to Subsection 3.01.

(e)In taking or recommending any course of action pursuant to this Agreement, unless specifically required to do so pursuant to this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall not be required to investigate or make recommendations concerning potential liabilities which the Trust Estate might incur as a result of such course of action by reason of the condition of the Mortgaged Properties but shall give written notice to the Indenture Trustee if it has notice of such potential liabilities.

(f) The Master Servicer shall not be liable for any acts or omissions of the Servicer.

Section 5.05.Master Servicer Not to Resign. Except as provided in Section 5.07, the Master Servicer shall not resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except upon a determination that any such duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such impermissibility cannot be cured. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Master Servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer, the Securities Administrator and the Issuer to such effect delivered to the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer and the Issuer. No such resignation by the Master Servicer shall become effective until the Company or the Indenture Trustee or a successor to the Master Servicer reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer and Company shall have assumed the responsibilities and obligations of the Master Servicer in accordance with Section 6.02 hereof. The Indenture Trustee shall notify the Rating Agencies of the resignation of the Master Servicer. Any resignation of the Master Servicer shall result in the automatic resignation of the Securities Administrator.

Section 5.06.Successor Master Servicer. In connection with the appointment of any successor master servicer or the assumption of the duties of the Master Servicer, the Company or the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor master servicer out of payments on the HELOCs as the Company or the Indenture Trustee and such successor master servicer shall agree. If the successor master servicer does not agree that such market value is a fair price, such successor master servicer shall obtain two quotations of market value from third parties actively engaged in the servicing of single-family mortgage loans. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the compensation payable to a successor master servicer may not exceed the compensation which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to retain if the Master Servicer had continued to act as Master Servicer hereunder.

Section 5.07.Sale and Assignment of Master Servicing. The Master Servicer may sell and assign its rights and delegate its duties and obligations in its entirety as Master Servicer under this Agreement and the Company may terminate the Master Servicer without cause and select a new Master Servicer; provided, however, that: (i) the purchaser or transferee accepting such assignment and delegation (a) shall be a Person which shall be qualified to service mortgage loans for Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac; (b) shall have a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 (unless otherwise approved by each Rating Agency pursuant to clause (ii) below); (c) shall be reasonably satisfactory to the Indenture Trustee, Note Insurer and Company; and (d) shall execute and deliver to the Indenture Trustee an agreement, in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee, which contains an assumption by such Person of the due and punctual performance and observance of each covenant and condition to be performed or observed by it as master servicer under this Agreement; (ii) each Rating Agency shall be given prior written notice of the identity of the proposed successor to

the Master Servicer and each Rating Agency’s rating of the Notes in effect immediately prior to such assignment, sale and delegation will not be downgraded, qualified or withdrawn as a result of such assignment, sale and delegation, as evidenced by a letter to such effect delivered to the Master Servicer, Issuer, Note Insurer and Indenture Trustee; (iii) the Master Servicer assigning and selling the master servicing shall deliver to the Issuer, the Note Insurer and the Indenture Trustee an Officer’s Certificate and an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Issuer, Note Insurer, the Securities Administrator and Indenture Trustee, each stating that all conditions precedent to such action under this Agreement have been completed and such action is permitted by and complies with the terms of this Agreement; and (iv) in the event the Master Servicer is terminated without cause by the Company, the Company shall pay the terminated Master Servicer a termination fee equal to 0.25% of the aggregate Scheduled Principal Balance of the HELOCs at the time the master servicing of the HELOCs is transferred to the successor Master Servicer. No such assignment or delegation shall affect any liability of the Master Servicer arising prior to the effective date thereof.

ARTICLE VI

Default

Section 6.01.Master Servicer Events of Default. “Master Servicer Event of Default,” wherever used herein, means any one of the following events (whatever the reason for such Master Servicer Event of Default and whether it shall be voluntary or involuntary or be effected by operation of law or pursuant to any judgment, decree or order of any court or any order, rule or regulation of any administrative or governmental body) and only with respect to the defaulting Master Servicer:

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

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

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

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

(v)The Master Servicer assigns or delegates its duties or rights under this Agreement in contravention of the provisions permitting such assignment or delegation under Sections 5.05 or 5.07; or

In each and every such case, so long as such Master Servicer Event of Default with respect to the Master Servicer shall not have been remedied, either the Indenture Trustee or the Holders of Notes aggregating at least 51% of the Note Principal Balance of the Notes, by notice in writing to the Master Servicer (and to the Indenture Trustee if given by such Noteholders), with a copy to the Rating Agencies, and with the consent of the Company, may terminate all of the rights and obligations (but not the liabilities) of the Master Servicer under this Agreement and in and to the HELOCs and/or the REO Property serviced by the Master Servicer and the proceeds thereof. Upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of the written notice, all authority and power of the Master Servicer under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Notes, the HELOCs, REO Property or under any other related agreements (but only to the extent that such other agreements relate to the HELOCs or related REO Property) shall, subject to Section 6.02, automatically and without further action pass to and be vested in the Indenture Trustee pursuant to this Section 6.01; and, without limitation, the Indenture Trustee is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Master Servicer as attorney-in-fact or otherwise, any and all documents and other instruments and to do or accomplish all other acts or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment of the HELOCs and related documents, or otherwise. The Master Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Indenture Trustee in effecting the termination of the Master Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Indenture Trustee of (i) the property and amounts which are then or should be part of the Trust Estate or which thereafter become part of the Trust Estate; and (ii) originals or copies of all documents of the Master Servicer reasonably requested by the Indenture Trustee to enable it to assume the Master Servicer’s duties thereunder. In addition to any other amounts which are then, or, notwithstanding the termination of its activities under this Agreement, may become payable to the Master Servicer under this Agreement, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of any amount received on account of a HELOC or related REO Property, that portion of such payments which it would have received as reimbursement under this Agreement if notice of termination had not been given. The termination of the rights and obligations of the Master Servicer shall not affect any obligations incurred by the Master Servicer prior to such termination.

Section 6.02.Indenture Trustee to Act; Appointment of Successor. (a) Upon the receipt by the Master Servicer of a notice of termination pursuant to Section 6.01 or an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 5.05 to the effect that the Master Servicer is legally unable to act or to delegate its duties to a Person which is legally able to act, the Indenture Trustee shall automatically become the successor in all respects to the Master Servicer in its capacity under this Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall thereafter be subject to all the responsibilities, duties, liabilities and limitations on liabilities relating thereto placed on the Master Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof; provided, however, that the Seller shall have the right to either (a) immediately assume the duties of the Master Servicer or (b) select a successor Master Servicer; provided further, however, that the Indenture Trustee shall have no obligation whatsoever with respect to any liability (including advances deemed recoverable and not previously made with respect to the relevant Payment Date giving rise to the Master Servicer Event of Default which shall be made by such successor Master Servicer) incurred by the Master Servicer at or prior to the time of termination. As compensation therefor, but subject to Section 5.06, the Indenture Trustee shall be entitled to compensation which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to retain if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder, except for those amounts due the Master Servicer as reimbursement permitted under this Agreement for advances previously made or expenses previously incurred. Notwithstanding the above, the Indenture Trustee may, if it shall be unwilling so to act, or shall, if it is legally unable so to act, appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint, any established housing and home finance institution which is a Fannie Mae- or Freddie Mac-approved servicer, and with respect to a successor to the Master Servicer only, having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000, as the successor to the Master Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Master Servicer hereunder; provided, that the Indenture Trustee shall obtain a letter from each Rating Agency that the ratings, if any, on each of the Notes will not be lowered as a result of the selection of the successor to the Master Servicer. Pending appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer hereunder, the Indenture Trustee shall be the successor and act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Indenture Trustee may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on the HELOCs as it and such successor shall agree; provided, however, that the provisions of Section 5.06 shall apply, the compensation shall not be in excess of that which the Master Servicer would have been entitled to if the Master Servicer had continued to act hereunder, and that such successor shall undertake and assume the obligations of the Master Servicer to pay compensation to any third Person acting as an agent or independent contractor in the performance of master servicing responsibilities hereunder. The Indenture Trustee and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

(b)If the Indenture Trustee shall succeed to any duties of the Master Servicer respecting the HELOCs as provided herein, it shall do so in a separate capacity and not in its capacity as Indenture Trustee and, accordingly, the provisions of Article VI of the Indenture shall be inapplicable to the Indenture Trustee in its duties as the successor to the Master Servicer in the servicing of the HELOCs (although such provisions shall continue to apply to the Indenture Trustee in its capacity as Indenture Trustee); the provisions of Article V, however, shall apply to it in its capacity as successor master servicer.

Section 6.03.Notification to Noteholders and the Note Insurer. Upon any termination or appointment of a successor to the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee shall give prompt written notice thereof to Noteholders and Certificateholders at their respective addresses appearing in the Note Register and to the Rating Agencies and the Note Insurer at its address appearing in the Insurance Agreement.

Section 6.04.Waiver of Defaults. The Indenture Trustee shall transmit by mail to all Noteholders, Certificateholders and the Note Insurer, within 60 days after the occurrence of any Master Servicer Event of Default of which a Responsible Officer of the Indenture Trustee received written notice or has actual knowledge, unless such Master Servicer Event of Default shall have been cured, notice of each such Master Servicer Event of Default. The Holders of Notes aggregating at least 51% of the Note Principal Balance of the Notes may, on behalf of all Noteholders, waive any default by the Master Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consequences thereof, except a default in the making of or the causing to be made any required distribution on the Notes, which default may only be waived by Holders of Notes aggregating 100% of the Note Principal Balance of the Notes. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall be deemed to cease to exist, and any Master Servicer Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been timely 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. The Indenture Trustee shall give notice of any such waiver to the Rating Agencies and the Note Insurer.

ARTICLE VII

Notwithstanding the foregoing, without the consent of the Noteholders, Certificateholders or the Note Insurer, the parties hereto may at any time and from time to time amend this Agreement to modify, eliminate or add to any of its provisions to such extent as shall be necessary or appropriate to maintain the qualification of any REMIC created pursuant to the Indenture as a REMIC under the Code or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of any tax on any REMIC created pursuant to the Indenture pursuant to the Code that would be a claim against any such REMIC at any time prior to the final redemption of the Notes, provided that the Indenture Trustee and Owner Trustee have been provided an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Indenture Trustee, Note Insurer, Securities Administrator and Owner Trustee, which opinion shall be an expense of the party requesting such opinion but in any case shall not be an expense of the Indenture Trustee, the Note Insurer, the Owner Trustee or the Trust Estate, to the effect that such action is necessary or appropriate to maintain such qualification or to avoid or minimize the risk of the imposition of such a tax.

(b)This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by the Issuer, the Company, the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Securities Administrator, the Indenture Trustee, with the consent of the Note Insurer and Holders of Notes aggregating at least 51% of Note Principal Balance of the Notes, for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Noteholders; provided, however, that no such amendment shall (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on HELOCs which are required to be distributed on any Note or Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Note or Certificate, (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentage of Notes or Certificates the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment, without the consent of the Holders of all Notes or Certificates then outstanding or (iii) cause any REMIC created pursuant to the Indenture to cease to qualify as a REMIC. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, for purposes of the giving or withholding of consents pursuant to this Section 7.01(b), Notes registered in the name of or held for the benefit of the Issuer, the Depositor, the Securities Administrator, the Master Servicer, the Note Insurer or the Indenture Trustee or any Affiliate thereof shall be entitled to vote their Percentage Interests with respect to matters affecting such Notes.

(c)          Promptly after the execution of any such amendment, the Securities Administrator shall furnish a copy of such amendment or written notification of the substance of such amendment to each Noteholder, Certificateholder and the Note Insurer, with a copy to the Rating Agencies.

(d)In the case of an amendment under Subsection 7.01(b) above, it shall not be necessary for the Noteholders or Certificateholders to approve the particular form of such an amendment. Rather, it shall be sufficient if the Noteholders or Certificateholders approve the substance of the amendment. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Noteholders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Indenture Trustee may prescribe.

(e)Prior to the execution of any amendment to this Agreement, the Indenture Trustee or Owner Trustee shall be entitled to receive and rely upon an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Indenture Trustee, Owner Trustee and Note Insurer stating that the execution of such amendment is authorized or permitted by this Agreement. The Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator may, but shall not be obligated to, enter into any such amendment which affects its own respective rights, duties or immunities under this Agreement.

(f)Any amendment affecting the rights of the Owner Trustee shall require the Owner Trustee’s written consent, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld.

Section 7.02.Recordation of Agreement. To the extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement 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 Depositor shall effect such recordation, at the expense of the Trust Estate upon the request in writing of a Noteholder or Certificateholder, but only if such direction is accompanied by an Opinion of Counsel (provided at the expense of the Noteholder or Certificateholder requesting recordation) to the effect that such recordation would materially and beneficially affect the interests of the Noteholders or Certificateholders or is required by law.

Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to sell, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase, certain first and junior lien home equity lines of credit (the “HELOCs”) as described herein. The Purchaser has established SACO I Trust 2005-GP1, a Delaware statutory trust (the “Issuer”) pursuant to a Short Form Trust Agreement, dated as of August 29, 2005, as amended and restated on September 9, 2005 (the “Trust Agreement”), among the Purchaser, Wilmington Trust Company (the “Owner Trustee”) and LaSalle Bank National Association (“LaSalle Bank” in such capacity, “Securities Administrator”). The Purchaser intends to sell the HELOCs to the Issuer pursuant to a Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated as of September 9, 2005 (the “Sale and Servicing Agreement”) among the Purchaser, as Depositor, the Issuer, the Mortgage Loan Seller, Citibank, N.A., as indenture trustee (the “Indenture Trustee”) and the LaSalle Bank as Securities Administrator and as master servicer (in such capacity, the “Master Servicer”). The Issuer, pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of September 9, 2005 (the “Indenture”) among the Issuer, the Indenture Trustee and the Securities Administrator intends to pledge the HELOCs to the Indenture Trustee and, issue and transfer to the Purchaser the SACO I Trust 2005-GP1, Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2005-GP1 and the Certificates issued pursuant to the Trust Agreement (the “Certificates”). Certain Certificates will be transferred by the Purchaser to the Mortgage Loan Seller as partial consideration for the sale of the HELOCs. The Master Servicer will master service the HELOCs on behalf of the Issuer pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The servicing of the HELOCs will be provided by GMAC Mortgage Corporation pursuant to its servicing agreement as specified in Appendix A to the Indenture which will be assigned to the Issuer on the Closing Date pursuant to the related Assignment Agreement. The representations and warranties made by the related Underlying Seller and the remedies for breach thereof will be assigned to the Issuer on the Closing Date pursuant to, and to the extent provided in the related Assignment Agreement.

The Purchaser has filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (the “Commission”) a registration statement on Form S-3 (Number 333-125422) relating to its Mortgage-Backed Notes and the offering of certain series thereof (including certain classes of the Certificates) from time to time in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the “Securities Act”). Such registration statement, when it became effective under the Securities Act, and the prospectus relating to the public offering of certain classes of the Notes by the Purchaser (the “Public Offering”), as each may be amended or supplemented from time to time pursuant to the Securities Act or otherwise, are referred to herein as the “Registration Statement” and the “Prospectus,” respectively. The “Prospectus Supplement” shall mean that supplement, dated August 31, 2005, to the Prospectus, dated June 24, 2005, relating to certain classes of the Notes.

With respect to the Public Offering of certain classes of the Notes, Bear, Stearns & Co. Inc.

If there are changes to the Preliminary Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall provide to the Purchaser as of the Closing Date a final schedule (the “Final Mortgage Loan Schedule”) setting forth the information listed on Exhibit 2 to this Agreement with respect to each of the HELOCs being sold by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser.

The Mortgage Loan Seller will be entitled to all scheduled payments of principal and interest on the HELOCs sold by it to the Purchaser due on or before the Cut-off Date (including payments collected after the Cut-off Date) and all payments thereof. Such principal amounts and any interest thereon belonging to

the related Mortgage Loan Seller as described above will not be included in the aggregate outstanding principal balance of the HELOCs as of the Cut-off Date as set forth on the Final Mortgage Loan Schedule.

(b)Pursuant to various conveyancing documents to be executed on the Closing Date and pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Purchaser will sell, assign and transfer on the Closing Date all of its right, title and interest in and to the HELOCs to the Issuer and, pursuant to the Indenture, the Issuer will assign all of its right, title and interest to the HELOCs to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Note Insurer, to secure the Notes issued pursuant to the Indenture. In connection with such transfers and assignments of the HELOCs, the Mortgage Loan Seller has delivered or will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee, or the Custodian on its behalf, by the Closing Date or such later date as is agreed to by the Purchaser and the Mortgage Loan Seller (each of the Closing Date and such later date is referred to as a “Mortgage File Delivery Date”), the items of each Mortgage File, provided, however, that in lieu of the foregoing, the Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver the following documents, under the circumstances set forth below: (i) in lieu of the original Security Instrument (including the Mortgage), assignments to the Indenture Trustee or intervening assignments thereof which have been delivered, are being delivered or will, upon receipt of recording information relating to the Security Instruments required to be included thereon, be delivered to recording offices for recording and have not been returned to the Mortgage Loan Seller in time to permit their delivery as specified above, the Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver a true copy thereof with a certification by the Mortgage Loan Seller, on the face of such copy, substantially as follows: “Certified to be a true and correct copy of the original, which has been transmitted for recording” (ii) in lieu of the Security Instrument, assignments to the Indenture Trustee or intervening assignments thereof, if the applicable jurisdiction retains the originals of such documents (as evidenced by a certification from the Mortgage Loan Seller to such effect) the Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver photocopies of such documents containing an original certification by the judicial or other governmental authority of the jurisdiction where such documents were recorded; (iii) in lieu of the Mortgage Notes relating to the HELOCs, each identified in the list delivered by the Purchaser to the Indenture Trustee on the Closing Date and attached hereto as Exhibit 5, the Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver lost note affidavits and indemnities of the Mortgage Loan Seller; and (iv) the Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be required to deliver intervening assignments or Mortgage Note endorsements between the related Underlying Seller and the Mortgage Loan Seller, between the Mortgage Loan Seller and the Depositor, between the Depositor and the Issuer and between the Issuer and the Indenture Trustee; and provided further, however, that in the case of HELOCs which have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date and prior to the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan Seller, in lieu of delivering the above documents, may deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Custodian a certification by the Mortgage Loan Seller or the Master Servicer to such effect and shall deposit all amounts paid in respect of such HELOCs in the Master Servicer Collection Account on the Closing Date. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver such original documents (including any original documents as to which certified copies had previously been delivered) or such certified copies to the Indenture Trustee promptly after they are received. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall cause the Mortgage and intervening assignments, if any, and the assignment of the Security Instrument to be recorded not later than 180 days after the Closing Date, unless such assignment is not required to be recorded under the terms set forth in Section 6(a) hereof.

(c)In connection with the assignment of any HELOC registered on the MERS® System, the Mortgage Loan Seller further agrees that it will cause, at the Mortgage Loan Seller’s own expense, within 30 days after the Closing Date, the MERS® System to indicate that such HELOCs have been assigned by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser, by the Purchaser to the Issuer and by the Issuer to the Indenture Trustee in accordance with this Agreement for the benefit of the Noteholders by including (or deleting, in the case of HELOCs which are repurchased in accordance with this Agreement) in such computer files (a) the code in the field which identifies the specific Indenture Trustee and (b) the code in the field “Pool Field” which identifies the series of the Notes issued in connection with such HELOCs. The Mortgage Loan Seller further agrees that it will not, and will not permit the Servicer or the Master Servicer to, and the Master Servicer agrees that it will not, alter the codes referenced in this paragraph with respect to any HELOC during the term of the Indenture unless and until such HELOC is repurchased in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

(d)The Mortgage Loan Seller and the Purchaser acknowledge hereunder that all of the HELOCs will ultimately be assigned to Citibank, N.A., as Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders, on the date hereof.

Section 5.Examination of Mortgage Files. (a)On or before the Mortgage File Delivery Date, the Mortgage Loan Seller will have made the related Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser or its agent for examination which may be at the offices of the Indenture Trustee or such Mortgage Loan Seller and/or such Mortgage Loan Seller’s custodian. The fact that the Purchaser or its agent has conducted or has failed to conduct any partial or complete examination of the related Mortgage Files shall not affect the Purchaser’s rights to demand cure, repurchase, substitution or other relief as provided in this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall make the related Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser or its agent from time to time so as to permit the Purchaser to confirm such Mortgage Loan Seller’s compliance with the delivery and recordation requirements of this Agreement and the Sale and Servicing Agreement. In addition, upon request of the Purchaser, the Mortgage Loan Seller agrees to provide to the Purchaser, Bear Stearns and to any investors or prospective investors in the Certificates information regarding the HELOCs and their servicing, to make the related Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser, Bear Stearns and to such investors or prospective investors (which may be at the offices of the related Mortgage Loan Seller and/or such Mortgage Loan Seller’s custodian) and to make available personnel knowledgeable about the related HELOCs for discussions with the Purchaser, Bear Stearns and such investors or prospective investors, upon reasonable request during regular business hours, sufficient to permit the Purchaser, Bear Stearns and such investors or potential investors to conduct such due diligence as any such party reasonably believes is appropriate.

(b)Pursuant to the Custodial Agreement, on the Closing Date the Custodian, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Noteholders, will acknowledge receipt of each HELOC, by delivery to the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Purchaser and the Issuer of an initial certification in the form attached as Exhibit One to the Custodial Agreement.

(c)Pursuant to the Custodial Agreement and in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, within 90 days of the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee will review or shall cause the Custodian to review items of the

Mortgage Files as set forth on Exhibit 1 and will deliver to the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Purchaser and the Indenture Trustee an interim certification substantially in the form of Exhibit Two to the Custodial Agreement to the effect that all such documents have been executed and received and that such documents relate to the HELOCs identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, except for any exceptions listed on Schedule A attached to such Interim Certification. The Custodian shall be under no duty or obligation to inspect, review or examine said documents, instruments, certificates or other papers to determine that the same are genuine, enforceable, or appropriate for the represented purpose or that they have actually been recorded or that they are other than what they purport to be on their face.

(d)The Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf will review the Mortgage Files within 180 days of the Closing Date and will deliver to the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Note Insurer and the Master Servicer, and if reviewed by the Custodian, the Indenture Trustee, a final certification substantially in the form of Exhibit 3 to the Custodial Agreement. If the Indenture Trustee or the related Custodian on its behalf is unable to deliver a final certification with respect to the items listed in Exhibit 1 due to any document that is missing, has not been executed, is unrelated, determined on the basis of the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the HELOCs identified in the Final Mortgage Loan Schedule (a “Material Defect”), the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian on its behalf shall notify the Seller, the Note Insurer and the Indenture Trustee in writing of such Material Defect. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall correct or cure any such Material Defect within 90 days from the date of notice from the Indenture Trustee, the Depositor or the Master Servicer of the Material Defect and if the Mortgage Loan Seller does not correct or cure such Material Defect within such period and such defect materially and adversely affects the interests of the Noteholders or the Note Insurer in the related HELOC, the Mortgage Loan Seller will, in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, within 90 days of the date of notice, provide the Indenture Trustee with a Substitute Mortgage Loan (if within two years of the Closing Date) or purchase the related HELOC at the applicable Purchase Price; provided, however, that if such defect relates solely to the inability of the Mortgage Loan Seller to deliver the original security instrument or intervening assignments thereof, or a certified copy because the originals of such documents, or a certified copy, have not been returned by the applicable jurisdiction, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall not be required to purchase such HELOC if the Mortgage Loan Seller delivers such original documents or certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after the Closing Date. The foregoing repurchase obligation shall not apply in the event that the Mortgage Loan Seller cannot deliver such original or copy of any document submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office in the applicable jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by such office; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such recording office or, if such receipt is not available, a certificate of the Mortgage Loan Seller or a Servicing Officer confirming that such documents have been accepted for recording, and delivery to the Indenture Trustee shall be effected by the Mortgage Loan Seller within thirty days of its receipt of the original recorded document.

(e)At the time of any substitution, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered the Substitute Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage File and any other documents and payments required to be delivered in connection with a substitution pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement. At the time of any purchase or substitution, the Indenture

Trustee in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement shall (i) assign to the Mortgage Loan Seller and cause the Custodian to release the documents (including, but not limited to, the Mortgage, Mortgage Note and other contents of the Mortgage File) in the possession of the Custodian relating to the Deleted Mortgage Loan and (ii) execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the Mortgage Loan Seller title to such Deleted Mortgage Loan.

Section 6.Recordation of Assignments of Mortgage. (a)The Mortgage Loan Seller shall cause each assignment of the Security Instrument from the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Indenture Trustee to be recorded not later than 180 days after the Closing Date, unless (a) such recordation is not required by the Rating Agencies or an Opinion of Counsel has been provided to the Indenture Trustee (with a copy to the Custodian) which states that the recordation of such assignments is not necessary to protect the interests of the Noteholders and the Note Insurer in the related HELOCs or (b) MERS is identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage, as the Mortgagee of record solely as nominee for the Mortgage Loan Seller and its successors and assigns; provided, however, notwithstanding the delivery of any such Opinion of Counsel, each assignment of Mortgage shall be submitted for recording by the Mortgage Loan Seller in the manner described above, at no expense to the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee, upon the earliest to occur of (i) reasonable direction by the Holders of Notes aggregating at least 25% of the Note Principal Balance of the Notes, (ii) the occurrence of a Master Servicer Event of Default or an Event of Default, (iii) the occurrence of a bankruptcy, insolvency or foreclosure relating to the Mortgage Loan Seller and, (iv) the occurrence of a servicing transfer as described in Section 6.02 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

While each such Mortgage or assignment is being recorded, if necessary, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall leave or cause to be left with the Indenture Trustee a certified copy of such Mortgage or assignment. In the event that, within 180 days of the Closing Date, the Indenture Trustee has not been provided with an Opinion of Counsel as described above or received evidence of recording with respect to each HELOC delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to the terms hereof or as set forth above and the related HELOC is not a MOM Loan, the failure to provide evidence of recording or such Opinion of Counsel shall be considered a Material Defect, and the provisions of Section 5(c) and (d) shall apply. All customary recording fees and reasonable expenses relating to the recordation of the assignments of mortgage to the Indenture Trustee or the Opinion of Counsel, as the case may be, shall be borne by the Mortgage Loan Seller.

(b)It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the HELOCs by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser, as contemplated by this Agreement be, and be treated as, a sale. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the HELOCs by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Mortgage Loan Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the HELOCs are held by a court to continue to be property of the Mortgage Loan Seller, then (i) this Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; (ii) the transfer of the HELOCs provided for herein shall be deemed to be a grant by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Purchaser of a security interest in all of the Mortgage Loan Seller’s right, title and interest in and

to the HELOCs and all amounts payable to the holders of the HELOCs in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or other property, to the extent the Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to own such HELOCs and proceeds pursuant to Section 4 hereof, including all amounts, other than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested in any accounts created pursuant to the Indenture or the Sale and Servicing Agreement, whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (iii) the possession by the Purchaser, the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee of Mortgage Notes and such other items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be “possession by the secured party” for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to Section 9-313 (or comparable provision) of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; and (iv) notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Any assignment of the interest of the Purchaser pursuant to any provision hereof or pursuant to the Sale and Servicing Agreement and any subsequent assignment pursuant to the Indenture shall also be deemed to be an assignment of any security interest created hereby. The Mortgage Loan Seller and the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be reasonably necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the HELOCs, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such throughout the term of the Indenture.

Section 7.Representations and Warranties of the Mortgage Loan Seller Concerning the HELOCs. The Mortgage Loan Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser as of the Closing Date, or such other date as may be specified below with respect to each HELOC being sold by it, that:

(a)The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule on the Closing Date is complete, true and correct.

(b)Each HELOC is a revolving home equity loan. Each Mortgage Note provides for (a) Monthly Payments which are at least equal to accrued interest during such Accrual Period and (b) at the maturity of the related HELOC, payment in full of the principal balance of such Mortgage Note.

(c) The Mortgage Note bears a variable Mortgage rate.

(d)No HELOC had a Combined Loan to Value Ratio at the time of origination of more than 100%.

(e)As of the Closing Date, the Mortgage Loan Seller has not received a notice of default of a senior lien which has not been cured.

(f)All payments required to be made prior to the Cut-off Date with respect to each HELOC have been made and no HELOC is delinquent thirty one or more days; and the related Mortgage Loan Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly

All such insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the originator, its successors and assigns as mortgagee and the related Mortgage Loan Seller has received no notice that all premiums thereon have not been paid.

The Mortgage Loan Seller will cooperate with the Purchaser in making available all information and taking all steps reasonably necessary to permit such accountants to complete the review and to deliver the letters required of them under the Underwriting Agreement. Deloitte & Touche LLP will also confirm certain calculations as set forth under the caption “Yield, Prepayment and Maturity Considerations” in the Prospectus Supplement.

Section 13. Indemnification.

(a)The Mortgage Loan Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser and its directors, officers and controlling persons (as defined in Section 15 of the Securities Act) from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability or action in respect thereof, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Mortgage Loan Seller’s Information as identified in Exhibit 3, or the omission to state in the Prospectus Supplement or Prospectus (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto approved by the Mortgage Loan Seller and in which additional Mortgage Loan Seller’s Information is identified), in reliance upon and in conformity with Mortgage Loan Seller’s Information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, (ii) any representation or warranty assigned or made by the Mortgage Loan Seller in Section 7 or Section 8 hereof being, or alleged to be, untrue or incorrect, or (iii) any failure by the Mortgage Loan Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and the Mortgage Loan Seller shall reimburse the Purchaser and each other indemnified party for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend against any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action.

The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which the Mortgage Loan Seller otherwise may have to the Purchaser or any other such indemnified party.

(b)The Purchaser shall indemnify and hold harmless the Mortgage Loan Seller and its respective directors, officers and controlling persons (as defined in Section 15 of the Securities Act) from and against any loss, claim, damage or liability or action in respect thereof, to which they or any of them may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such loss, claim, damage, liability or action arises out of, or is based upon (i) any untrue statement of a material fact contained in the Purchaser’s Information as identified in Exhibit 4, or the omission to state in the Prospectus Supplement or Prospectus (or any amendment thereof or supplement thereto approved by the Purchaser and in which additional Purchaser’s Information is identified), in reliance upon and in conformity with the Purchaser’s Information, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein, in light of the circumstances in which they were made, not misleading, (ii) any representation or warranty made by the Purchaser in Section 9 hereof being, or alleged to be, untrue or incorrect, or (iii) any failure by the Purchaser to perform its obligations under this Agreement; and the Purchaser shall reimburse the Mortgage Loan Seller, and each other indemnified party for any legal and other expenses reasonably incurred by them in connection with investigating or defending or preparing to defend any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. The foregoing indemnity agreement is in addition to any liability which the Purchaser otherwise may have to the Mortgage Loan Seller, or any other such indemnified party.

(c)Promptly after receipt by an indemnified party under subsection (a) or (b) above of notice of the commencement of any action, such indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the indemnifying party under such subsection, notify each party against whom indemnification is to be sought in writing of the commencement thereof (but the failure so to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve it from any liability which it may have under this Section 14 except to the extent that it has been prejudiced in any material respect by such failure or from any liability which it may have otherwise). In case any such action is brought against any indemnified party, and it notifies an indemnifying party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent it may elect by written notice delivered to the indemnified party promptly (but, in any event, within 30 days) after receiving the aforesaid notice from such indemnified party, to assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to such indemnified party. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the indemnified party or parties shall have the right to employ its or their own counsel in any such case, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified party or parties unless (i) the employment of such counsel shall have been authorized in writing by one of the indemnifying parties in connection with the defense of such action, (ii) the indemnifying parties shall not have employed counsel to have charge of the defense of such action within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the action, or (iii) such indemnified party or parties shall have reasonably concluded that there is a conflict of interest between itself or themselves and the indemnifying party in the conduct of the defense of any claim or that the interests of the indemnified party or parties are not substantially co-extensive with those of the indemnifying party (in which case the indemnifying parties shall not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the indemnified party or parties), in any of which events such fees and expenses shall be borne by the indemnifying parties (provided, however, that the indemnifying party shall be liable only for the

fees and expenses of one counsel in addition to one local counsel in the jurisdiction involved. Anything in this subsection to the contrary notwithstanding, an indemnifying party shall not be liable for any settlement or any claim or action effected without its written consent; provided, however, that such consent was not unreasonably withheld.

(d)If the indemnification provided for in paragraphs (a) and (b) of this Section 13 shall for any reason be unavailable to an indemnified party in respect of any loss, claim, damage or liability, or any action in respect thereof, referred to in Section 13, then the indemnifying party shall in lieu of indemnifying the indemnified party contribute to the amount paid or payable by such indemnified party as a result of such loss, claim, damage or liability, or action in respect thereof, in such proportion as shall be appropriate to reflect the relative benefits received by the Mortgage Loan Seller on the one hand and the Purchaser on the other from the purchase and sale of the HELOCs, the offering of the Notes and the other transactions contemplated hereunder. No person found liable for a fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of the Securities Act) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who is not also found liable for such fraudulent misrepresentation.

(e)The parties hereto agree that reliance by an indemnified party on any publicly available information or any information or directions furnished by an indemnifying party shall not constitute negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct by such indemnified party.

Section 14.        Notices. All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing but may be delivered by facsimile transmission subsequently confirmed in writing. Notices to the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be directed to EMC Mortgage Corporation, 909 Hidden Ridge Drive, Suite 200 Irving, Texas 75038, (Telecopy: (972 -444-2880)); notices to the Purchaser shall be directed to Bear Stearns Asset Backed Securities I LLC, 383 Madison Avenue, New York, New York 10179, (Telecopy # (212) 272-2619), Attention: Chief Counsel; and notices to the Note Insurer shall be directed to 1325 Avenue of the Americas, New York, NY 10019 (Telecopy # [____________]), Attention: Risk Management Department SACO I Trust 2005-GP1, Policy No. D-2005-69), with a copy to the General Counsel at the above address, and in each case in which a demand, notice or other communication to the Note Insurer refers to a Default, an Event of Default or any event with respect to which failure on the part of the Note Insurer to respond shall be deemed to constitute consent or acceptance, then such demand, notice or other communication shall be marked to indicate "URGENT MATERIAL ENCLOSED" or to any other address as may hereafter be furnished by one party to the other party by like notice. Any such demand, notice or communication hereunder shall be deemed to have been received on the date received at the premises of the addressee (as evidenced, in the case of registered or certified mail, by the date noted on the return receipt) provided that it is received on a business day during normal business hours and, if received after normal business hours, then it shall be deemed to be received on the next business day.

Section 15.Transfer of HELOCs. The Purchaser retains the right to assign the HELOCs and any or all of its interest under this Agreement to the Issuer, with the understanding that the Issuer will then assign such rights to the Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture, without the consent of the Mortgage Loan Seller, and, upon such assignment, the Indenture Trustee, as the ultimate assignee, shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of the Purchaser hereunder; provided, however, the Purchaser shall remain entitled to the benefits set forth in Sections 11, 13 and 17 hereto and as provided in Section 2(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sole and exclusive right and remedy of the Issuer or the Indenture Trustee with respect to a breach of representation or warranty of the Mortgage Loan Seller shall be the cure, purchase or substitution obligations of the Mortgage Loan Seller contained in Sections 5 and 7 hereof.

Section 16.Termination. This Agreement may be terminated (a) by the mutual consent of the parties hereto prior to the Closing Date, (b) by the Purchaser, if the conditions to the Purchaser’s obligation to close set forth under Section 11(a) hereof are not fulfilled as and when required to be fulfilled or (c) by the Mortgage Loan Seller, if the conditions to the Mortgage Loan Seller’s obligation to close set forth under Section 11(b) hereof are not fulfilled as and when required to be fulfilled. In the event of termination pursuant to clause (b), the Mortgage Loan Seller shall pay, and in the event of termination pursuant to clause (c), the Purchaser shall pay, all reasonable out-of-pocket expenses incurred by the other in connection with the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. In the event of a termination pursuant to clause (a), each party shall be responsible for its own expenses.

Section 17.Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery. All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this Agreement, or contained in certificates of officers of the Mortgage Loan Seller submitted pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall survive delivery of the HELOCs to the Purchaser (and by the Purchaser to the Indenture Trustee). Subsequent to the delivery of the HELOCs to the Purchaser, each of the Mortgage Loan Seller’s representations and warranties contained herein with respect to the HELOCs shall be deemed to relate to the HELOCs actually delivered to the Purchaser and included in the Final Mortgage Loan Schedule and any Substitute Mortgage Loan and not to those HELOCs deleted from the Preliminary Mortgage Loan Schedule pursuant to Section 3 hereof prior to the Closing.

Section 18.Severability. If any provision of this Agreement shall be prohibited or invalid under applicable law, this Agreement shall be ineffective only to such extent, without invalidating the remainder of this Agreement.

Section 19.Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be an original, but which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.

Section 20.Amendment. This Agreement cannot be amended or modified in any manner without the prior written consent of each party.

Each of the parties agrees to execute and deliver such instruments and take such actions as another party may, from time to time, reasonably request in order to effectuate the purpose and to carry out the terms of this Agreement including any amendments hereto which may be required by either Rating Agency.

Section 23.Successors and Assigns. This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Mortgage Loan Seller and the Purchaser and their permitted successors and assigns and, to the extent specified in Section 14 hereof, Bear Stearns,

and their directors, officers and controlling persons (within the meaning of federal securities laws). The Mortgage Loan Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser may assign its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, with respect to the Mortgage Loan Seller’s representations and warranties respecting the HELOCs) to the Indenture Trustee. Any person into which any Mortgage Loan Seller may be merged or consolidated (or any person resulting from any merger or consolidation involving such Mortgage Loan Seller), any person resulting from a change in form of such Mortgage Loan Seller or any person succeeding to the business of such Mortgage Loan Seller, shall be considered the “successor” of such Mortgage Loan Seller hereunder and shall be considered a party hereto without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act or consent on the part of any party hereto. Except as provided in the two preceding sentences, this Agreement cannot be assigned, pledged or hypothecated by either party hereto without the written consent of the other parties to this Agreement and any such assignment or purported assignment shall be deemed null and void.

Section 24.The Mortgage Loan Seller. The Mortgage Loan Seller will keep in full force and effect its existence, all rights and franchises as a corporation under the laws of the State of its incorporation and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is necessary to perform its obligations under this Agreement.

CONTENTS OF MORTGAGE FILE

With respect to each HELOC, the Mortgage File shall include each of the following items, which shall be available for inspection by the Purchaser or its designee, and which shall be delivered to the Purchaser or its designee pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(i)The original Mortgage Note, including any riders thereto, endorsed without recourse to the order of Citibank, N.A., as Indenture Trustee for Noteholders of SACO I Trust 2005-GP1, Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2005-GP1,” showing to the extent available to the related Mortgage Loan Seller an unbroken chain of endorsements from the original payee thereof to the Person endorsing it to the Indenture Trustee.

(ii)The original Mortgage and if the related HELOC is a MOM Loan, noting the presence of the MIN and language indicating that such Mortgage Loan is a MOM Loan, which shall have been recorded (or if the original is not available, a copy), with evidence of such recording indicated thereon (or if clause (x) in the proviso below applies, shall be in recordable form);

(iii)unless the HELOC is a MOM Loan, the assignment (either an original or a copy, which may be in the form of a blanket assignment if permitted in the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located) to the Indenture Trustee of the Mortgage with respect to each HELOC in the name of “Citibank, N.A., as Indenture Trustee for Noteholders of SACO I Trust 2005-GP1, Mortgage-Backed Notes, Series 2005-GP1,” which shall have been recorded (or if clause (x) in the proviso below applies, shall be in recordable form);

(iv)an original or a copy of all intervening assignments of the Mortgage, if any, to the extent available to the related Mortgage Loan Seller, with evidence of recording thereon;

(v)the original policy of title insurance or mortgagee’s certificate of title insurance or commitment or binder for title insurance, if available, or a copy thereof, or, in the event that such original title insurance policy is unavailable, a photocopy thereof, or in lieu thereof, a current lien search on the related Mortgaged Property and

(vi)originals or copies of all available assumption, modification or substitution agreements, if any.

Provided, however, that in lieu of the foregoing, the Mortgage Loan Seller may deliver the following documents, under the circumstances set forth below: (x) if any Mortgage,

assignment thereof to the Indenture Trustee or intervening assignments thereof have been delivered or are being delivered to recording offices for recording and have not been returned in time to permit their delivery as specified above, the Purchaser may deliver a true copy thereof with a certification by the Mortgage Loan Seller or the title company issuing the commitment for title insurance, on the face of such copy, substantially as follows: “Certified to be a true and correct copy of the original, which has been transmitted for recording” and (y) in lieu of the Mortgage Notes relating to the HELOCs identified in the list set forth in Exhibit [A] to the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Purchaser may deliver a lost note affidavit and indemnity and a copy of the original note, if available; and provided, further, however, that in the case of HELOCs which have been prepaid in full after the Cut-Off Date and prior to the Closing Date, the Purchaser, in lieu of delivering the above documents, may deliver to the Indenture Trustee and its Custodian a certification of a Servicing Officer to such effect and in such case shall deposit all amounts paid in respect of such HELOCs, in the Protected Account or in the Distribution Account on the Closing Date. In the case of the documents referred to in clause (x) above, the Purchaser shall deliver such documents to the Indenture Trustee or its related Custodian promptly after they are received. The Mortgage Loan Seller shall cause, at its expense, the Mortgage and intervening assignments, if any, and to the extent required in accordance with the foregoing, the assignment of the Mortgage to the Indenture Trustee to be submitted for recording promptly after the Closing Date; provided that the Mortgage Loan Seller need not cause to be recorded any assignment (a) in any jurisdiction under the laws of which, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel addressed to the Indenture Trustee delivered by the Mortgage Loan Seller to the Indenture Trustee, and the Rating Agencies, the recordation of such assignment is not necessary to protect the Indenture Trustee’s interest in the related HELOC or (b) if MERS is identified on the Mortgage or on a properly recorded assignment of the Mortgage as mortgagee of record solely as nominee for the Mortgage Loan Seller and its successors and assigns. In the event that the Mortgage Loan Seller, the Purchaser or the Master Servicer gives written notice to the Indenture Trustee that a court has recharacterized the sale of the HELOCs as a financing, the Mortgage Loan Seller shall submit or cause to be submitted for recording as specified above or, should the Mortgage Loan Seller fail to perform such obligations, the Master Servicer shall cause each such previously unrecorded assignment to be submitted for recording as specified above at the expense of the Trust.

APPENDIX E - STANDARD & POOR'S PREDATORY LENDING CATEGORIES

Standard & Poor’s has categorized loans governed by anti-predatory lending laws in the Jurisdictions listed below into three categories based upon a combination of factors that include (a) the risk exposure associated with the assignee liability and (b) the tests and thresholds set forth in those laws. Note that certain loans classified by the relevant statute as Covered are included in Standard & Poor’s High Cost Loan Category because they included thresholds and tests that are typical of what is generally considered High Cost by the industry.
