WHEREAS, each Loan is secured by a mortgage, deed of trust or other security instrument creating a first or second lien on a residential dwelling located in the jurisdiction indicated on the Loan Schedule for the related Loan Package, which is to be annexed to the related Assignment and Conveyance;

WHEREAS, the Purchaser and the Seller wish to prescribe the manner of the conveyance, servicing and control of the Loans; and

SECTION 2.

Agreement to Purchase.  The Seller agrees to sell, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase, from time-to-time, Loans having an aggregate principal balance on the related Cut-off Date in an amount as set forth in the related Confirmation, or in such other amount as agreed by the Purchaser and the Seller as evidenced by the actual aggregate principal balance of the Loans accepted by the Purchaser on the related Closing Date.

SECTION 3.

Loan Schedules.  The Seller shall deliver the Loan Schedule for a Loan Package to be purchased on a particular Closing Date to the Purchaser at least five (5) Business Days prior to the related Closing Date in both hard copy and electronic format.

SECTION 4.

Purchase Price.  The Purchase Price for each Loan listed on the related Loan Schedule shall be the percentage of par as stated in the related Confirmation (subject to adjustment as provided therein), multiplied by its Stated Principal Balance as of the related Cut-off Date. If so provided in the related Confirmation, portions of the Loans shall be priced separately.

In addition to the Purchase Price as described above, the Initial Purchaser shall pay the Seller, at closing, accrued interest on the Stated Principal Balance of each Loan as of the related Cut-off Date at its Net Loan Rate from the related Cut-off Date through the day prior to the related Closing Date, both inclusive.

The Purchaser shall own and be entitled to receive with respect to each Loan purchased, (1) all scheduled principal due after the related Cut-off Date, (2) all other recoveries of principal collected after the related Cut-off Date (provided, however, that all scheduled payments of principal due on or before the related Cut-off Date and collected by the Seller after the related Cut-off Date shall belong to the Seller), and (3) all payments of interest on the Loans net of the Servicing Fee minus that portion of any such interest payment that is allocable to the period prior to the related Cut-off Date. The Stated Principal Balance of each Loan as of the related Cut-off Date is determined after application to the reduction of principal of payments of principal due on or before the related Cut-off Date whether or not collected. Therefore, for the purposes of this Agreement, payments of scheduled principal and interest prepaid for a Due Date beyond the related Cut-off Date shall not be applied to the principal balance as of the related Cut-off Date. Such prepaid amounts (minus the applicable Servicing Fee) shall be the property of the Purchaser. The Seller shall deposit any such prepaid amounts into the Custodial Account, which account is established for the benefit of the Purchaser, for remittance by the Seller to the Purchaser on the first related Distribution Date. All payments of principal and interest, less the applicable Servicing Fee, due on a Due Date following the related Cut-off Date shall belong to the Purchaser.

SECTION 5.

Examination of Loan Files.  In addition to the rights granted to the Initial Purchaser under the related Confirmation to underwrite the Loans and review the Loan Files prior to the Closing Date, prior to the related Closing Date, the Seller shall (a) deliver to the Custodian in escrow, for examination with respect to each Loan to be purchased on such Closing Date, the related Loan File, or (b) make the related Loan File available to the Initial Purchaser for examination at the Seller’s offices or such other location as shall otherwise be agreed upon by the Initial Purchaser and the Seller. Such examination may be made by the Initial Purchaser or its designee at any reasonable time before the related Closing Date. If the Initial Purchaser makes such examination prior to the related Closing Date and identifies any Loans that do not conform to the terms of the related Confirmation or the Initial Purchaser’s underwriting standards, such Loans may, at the Initial Purchaser’s option, be rejected for purchase by the Initial Purchaser. If not purchased by the Initial Purchaser, such Loans shall be deleted from the related Loan Schedule. The Initial Purchaser may, at its option and without notice to the Seller, purchase all or part of any Loan Package without conducting any partial or complete examination. The fact that the Initial Purchaser has conducted or has determined not to conduct any partial or complete examination of the Loan Files shall not affect the Initial Purchaser’s (or any of its successors’) rights to demand repurchase or other relief or remedy provided for in this Agreement.

SECTION 6.

Conveyance from Seller to Initial Purchaser.  

Subsection 6.01.

Conveyance of Loans; Possession of Servicing Files.  

The Seller, simultaneously with the payment of the Purchase Price, shall execute and deliver to the Initial Purchaser an Assignment and Conveyance with respect to the related Loan Package in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 4. The Servicing File retained by the Seller with respect to each Loan pursuant to this Agreement shall be appropriately identified in the Seller’s computer system to reflect clearly the sale of such related Loan to the Purchaser. The Seller shall release from its custody the contents of any Servicing File retained by it only in accordance with this Agreement, except when such release is required in connection with a repurchase of any such Loan pursuant to Subsection 7.03 or 7.04.

In addition, in connection with the assignment of any MERS Loan, the Seller agrees that within two Business Days following each Closing Date it will cause, at its own expense, the MERS System to indicate that the related Loans have been assigned by the Seller to the Purchaser in accordance with this Agreement by including in such computer files the information required by the MERS System to identify the Purchaser as owner of such Loans.

Subsection 6.02.

Books and Records.  

Record title to each Note and the related Mortgage as of the related Closing Date shall be in the name of the Seller, the Purchaser or one or more designees of the Purchaser, as the Purchaser shall designate. Notwithstanding the foregoing, beneficial ownership of each Note and the related Mortgage shall be vested solely in the Purchaser. All rights arising out of the Loans including, but not limited to, all funds received by the Seller after the related Cut-off Date on or in connection with a Loan as provided in Section 4 shall be vested in the Purchaser or one or more designees of the Purchaser; provided, however, that all such funds received on or in connection with a Loan as provided in Section 4 shall be received and held by the Seller in trust for the benefit of the Purchaser as the owner of the Loans pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

It is the express intention of the parties that the transactions contemplated by this Agreement be, and be construed as, a sale of the Loans by the Seller and not a pledge of the Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of the Seller. Consequently, the sale of each Loan shall be reflected as a sale on the Seller’s business records, tax returns and financial statements.

Subsection 6.03.

Delivery of Loan Documents.  

The Seller shall from time to time in connection with each Closing Date, at least five (5) Business Days prior to such Closing Date, deliver and release to the Custodian the Loan Documents with respect to each Loan to be purchased and sold on the related Closing Date  and set forth on the related Loan Schedule.

The Custodian shall certify its receipt of all such Loan Documents required to be delivered pursuant to the Custodial Agreement for the related Closing Date, as evidenced by the Trust Receipt and Initial Certification of the Custodian in the form annexed to the Custodial Agreement. The fees and expenses of the Custodian shall be paid by the Purchaser.

The Seller shall forward to the Custodian original documents evidencing an assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Loan entered into in accordance with this Agreement within two weeks of their execution, provided, however, that the Seller shall provide the Custodian with a certified true copy of any such document submitted for recordation within two weeks of its execution.

The Seller shall provide the original of any document submitted for recordation or a copy of such document certified by the appropriate public recording office to be a true and complete copy of the original within 180 days of its submission for recordation.

All payments required to be made up to the close of business on the Cut-off Date for such Loan under the terms of the Note have been made; the Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds from a party other than the owner of the related Mortgaged Property, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by the Note or Mortgage; and there has been no delinquency, exclusive of any period of grace, in any payment by the Borrower thereunder during the last twelve months;

(iv)

There are no delinquent taxes, ground rents, water charges, sewer rents, assessments, insurance premiums, leasehold payments, including assessments payable in future installments or other outstanding charges affecting the related Mortgaged Property;

(v)

The terms of the Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments, recorded in the applicable public recording office if necessary to maintain the lien priority of the Mortgage, and which have been delivered to the Custodian; the substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any, and the title insurer, to the extent required by the related policy, and is reflected on the related Loan Schedule. No instrument of waiver, alteration or modification has been executed, and no Borrower has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any, and the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption agreement has been delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the related Loan Schedule.  With respect to each Second Lien Loan (a) the related first lien is in full force and effect, (b) there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the related first lien mortgage or the mortgage note related to such first lien mortgage, (c) either no consent for the Loan is required by the holder of the first lien or such consent has been obtained and is contained in the Loan File, (d) no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under the related first lien mortgage loan, and either (1) the related first lien mortgage contains a provision which allows or (2) applicable law requires, the mortgagee under the Second Lien Loan to receive notice of, and affords such mortgagee an opportunity to cure any default by payment in full or otherwise under the related first lien mortgage , and (e) such Second Lien Loan is secured by a one- to four-family residence that was (or would be) the principal residence of the Borrower upon the origination of the Second Lien Loan;

(vi)

The Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Note and the Mortgage or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto;

All such insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the Seller, its successors and assigns as mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified on a Flood Hazard Map or Flood Insurance Rate Map issued by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available) a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration is in effect which policy conforms to the requirements of Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac. The Mortgage obligates the Borrower thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the Borrower’s cost and expense, and on the Borrower’s failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at Borrower’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Borrower.  No prior holder of the related Mortgage, including the Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such insurance policies;

(ix)

The Mortgage has not been satisfied, cancelled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation, subordination, rescission or release;

(x)

The Mortgage is a valid, existing and enforceable first lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the Mortgaged Property subject only to (a) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording being acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Loan and which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property, and (c) with respect to Second Lien Loans, the first priority lien on the Mortgaged Property and (d) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property.  Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Loan establishes and creates a valid, existing and enforceable first lien and first priority or with respect to Second Lien Loans, second lien and second priority, security interest on the property described therein and the Seller has full right to sell and assign the same to the Purchaser.  Unless otherwise set forth on the related Loan Schedule, the Mortgaged Property was not, as of the date of origination of the Loan, subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt or other security instrument creating a lien subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage;

All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making or closing the Loan and the recording of the Mortgage have been paid, and the Borrower is not entitled to any refund of any amounts paid or due to the Mortgagee pursuant to the Note or Mortgage;

(xiv)

The Seller is the sole legal, beneficial and equitable owner of the Note and the Mortgage and has full right to transfer and sell the Loan to the Purchaser free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest;

(xv)

All parties which have had any interest in the Loan, whether as mortgagee, assignee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) in compliance with any and all applicable “doing business” and licensing requirements  of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located;

(xvi)

The Loan is covered by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy (which, in the case of an Adjustable Rate Loan has an adjustable rate mortgage endorsement in the form of ALTA 6.0 or 6.1) acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac, issued by a title insurer acceptable to Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to the exceptions contained in (x)(a), (b) (c) and (d) above) the Seller, its successors and assigns as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage or (ii) with respect to a Second Lien Loan, the second priority lien of the Mortgage, in either case, in the original principal amount of the Loan and, with respect to any Adjustable Rate Loan, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment in the Loan Interest Rate and Monthly Payment.

Subsection 7.03.

Remedies for Breach of Representations and Warranties.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 7.01 and 7.02 shall survive the sale of the Loans to the Purchaser and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any Note or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination or lack of examination of any Loan File. Upon discovery by either the Seller or the Purchaser of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects the value of the Loans or the interest of the Purchaser (or which materially and adversely affects the value of a Loan or the interests of the Purchaser in the related Loan in the case of a representation and warranty relating to a particular Loan), the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other.

Within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Seller of any breach of a representation or warranty which materially and adversely affects the value of a Loan or the Loans, the Seller shall use its best efforts promptly to cure such breach in all material respects and, if such breach cannot be cured, the Seller shall, at the Purchaser’s option, repurchase such Loan at the Repurchase Price. In the event that a breach shall involve any representation or warranty set forth in Subsection 7.01 and such breach cannot be cured within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Seller of such breach, all of the Loans shall, at the Purchaser’s option, be repurchased by the Seller at the Repurchase Price. The Seller shall, at the request of the Purchaser and assuming that Seller has a Qualified Substitute Loan, rather than repurchase the Loan as provided above, remove such Loan and substitute in its place a Qualified Substitute Loan or Loans; provided that such substitution shall be effected not later than 120 days after the related Closing Date. If the Seller has no Qualified Substitute Loan, it shall repurchase the deficient Loan. Any repurchase of a Loan(s) pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 7.03 shall occur on a date designated by the Purchaser and shall be accomplished by deposit in the Custodial Account of the amount of the Repurchase Price for distribution to the Purchaser on the next scheduled Distribution Date.  It is understood by the parties hereto that a breach of the representations and warranties made in Subsections 7.02 (y), (viii), (xxxix), (xl), (xli), (xlv), (xlvi), (l), (lii), (liii), (liv), (lx) or (lxi) will be deemed to materially and adversely affect the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interest of the Purchaser therein.

At the time of repurchase of any deficient Loan, the Purchaser and the Seller shall arrange for the reassignment of the repurchased Loan to the Seller and the delivery to the Seller of any documents held by the Custodian relating to the repurchased Loan. In the event the Repurchase Price is deposited in the Custodial Account, the Seller shall, simultaneously with such deposit, give written notice to the Purchaser that such deposit has taken place. Upon such repurchase the related Loan Schedule shall be amended to reflect the withdrawal of the repurchased Loan from this Agreement.

As to any Deleted Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Loan or Loans, the Seller shall effect such substitution by delivering to the Purchaser for such Qualified Substitute Loan or Loans the Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment of Mortgage and such other documents and agreements as are required by this Agreement, with the Note endorsed as required therein. The Seller shall deposit in the Custodial Account the Monthly Payment less the Servicing Fee due on such Qualified Substitute Loan or Loans in the month following the date of such substitution. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Loans in the month of substitution will be retained by the Seller. For the month of substitution, distributions to the Purchaser will include the Monthly Payment due on such Deleted Loan in the month of substitution, and the Seller shall thereafter be entitled to retain all amounts subsequently received by the Seller in respect of such Deleted Loan. The Seller shall give written notice to the Purchaser that such substitution has taken place and shall amend the Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Loan. Upon such substitution, such Qualified Substitute Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects, and the Seller shall be deemed to have made with respect to such Qualified Substitute Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution, the covenants, representations and warranties set forth in Sections 7.01 and 7.02.

For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Loans for one or more Deleted Loans, the Seller will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Qualified Substitute Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted Loans (after application of scheduled principal payments due in the month of substitution). An amount equal to the product of the amount of such shortfall multiplied by the percentage of par set forth in the definition of “Repurchase Price” shall be distributed by the Seller in the month of substitution pursuant to the Servicing Addendum. Accordingly, on the date of such substitution, the Seller will deposit from its own funds into the Custodial Account an amount equal to such amount.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Seller or receipt of notice by the Seller of a breach of any representation or warranty by the Seller which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser in any prepayment charge or penalty, the Seller shall pay the amount of such prepayment charge or penalty to the Purchaser.

In addition to such cure, repurchase, payment and substitution obligations, the Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser and hold it harmless against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach of the Seller’s representations and warranties contained in this Section 7. It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Seller set forth in this Subsection 7.03 to cure or repurchase a defective Loan, to pay the amount of certain prepayment penalties and to indemnify the Purchaser as provided in this Subsection 7.03 constitute the sole remedies of the Purchaser respecting a breach of the foregoing representations and warranties.

Any cause of action against the Seller relating to or arising out of the breach of any representations and warranties made in Subsections 7.01 or 7.02 shall accrue as to any Loan upon (i) discovery of such breach by the Purchaser or notice thereof by the Seller to the Purchaser, (ii) failure by the Seller to cure such breach or repurchase such Loan as specified above, and (iii) demand upon the Seller by the Purchaser for compliance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement.

Subsection 7.04.

Repurchase of Convertible Loans.

Subsection 7.05.

Repurchase of Certain Loans.

If a Monthly Payment becomes one (1) or more scheduled Monthly Payments delinquent at any time on or prior to the first day of the fourth calendar month following the related Closing Date (or such other date set forth in the related Confirmation), then the Seller, at the Purchaser’s option, shall (a) promptly repurchase the related Loan from the Purchaser in accordance with the procedures set forth in Subsection 7.03 hereof and any such repurchase shall be made at the Repurchase Price, (b) indemnify the Purchaser in accordance with Subsection 13.01 hereof, or (c) substitute a mortgage loan acceptable to the Purchaser in accordance with Subsection 7.03 hereof.

With respect to each Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, as the case may be, entered into by the Initial Purchaser, the Seller agrees:

(1)

to cooperate fully with the Purchaser and any prospective purchaser with respect to all reasonable requests and due diligence procedures and with respect to the preparation (including, but not limited to, the endorsement, delivery, assignment, and execution) of the Loan Documents and other related documents, and with respect to servicing requirements reasonably requested by the rating agencies and credit enhancers;

(2)

to execute all Reconstitution Agreements provided that each of the Seller and the Purchaser is given an opportunity to review and reasonably negotiate in good faith the content of such documents not specifically referenced or provided for herein;

(3)

with respect to any Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, the Seller shall make the representations and warranties regarding the Seller and, if such Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction occurs within 12 months of the related Closing Date or such later period as specified in the related Confirmation, the Loans as of the date of such Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, modified to the extent necessary to accurately reflect the pool statistics of the Loans as of the date of such Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction and any events or circumstances existing subsequent to the related Closing Date;

(4)

to deliver (x) to the Purchaser and to any Person designated by the Purchaser for inclusion in any prospectus or other offering material such publicly available information regarding the Seller, its financial condition and its mortgage loan delinquency, foreclosure and loss experience and any additional information reasonably requested by the Purchaser, and which the Seller is capable of providing without unreasonable effort or expense, and (y) to the Purchaser any similar non public, unaudited financial information (which the Purchaser may, at its option and at its cost, have audited by certified public accountants); and to indemnify the Purchaser and any related underwriter and their affiliates for any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in such information or an omission or alleged omission to state in such information a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements therein not misleading;

(5)

(6)

to deliver to the Purchaser, and to any Person designated by the Purchaser, such legal documents and in-house Opinions of Counsel as are customarily delivered by originators or servicers, as the case may be, and reasonably determined by the Purchaser to be necessary in connection with Whole Loan Transfers or Securitization Transactions, as the case may be, such in-house Opinions of Counsel for a Securitization Transaction to be in the form reasonably acceptable to the Purchaser, it being understood that the cost of any opinions of outside special counsel that may be required for a Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, as the case may be, shall be the responsibility of the Purchaser;

(7)

to negotiate and execute one or more subservicing agreements between the Seller and any master servicer which is generally considered to be a prudent master servicer in the secondary mortgage market, designated by the Purchaser in its sole discretion after consultation with the Seller and/or one or more custodial and servicing agreements among the Purchaser, the Seller and a third party custodian/trustee which is generally considered to be a prudent custodian/trustee in the secondary mortgage market designated by the Purchaser in its sole discretion after consultation with the Seller, in either case for the purpose of pooling the Loans with other Loans for resale or securitization;

(8)

in connection with any securitization of any Loans, to execute a pooling and servicing agreement, which pooling and servicing agreement may, at the Purchaser’s direction, contain contractual provisions including, but not limited to, a 24-day certificate payment delay (54-day total payment delay), servicer advances of delinquent scheduled payments of principal and interest through liquidation (unless deemed non-recoverable) and prepayment interest shortfalls (to the extent of the monthly servicing fee payable thereto), servicing and loan representations and warranties which in form and substance conform to the representations and warranties in this Agreement and to secondary market standards for securities backed by loans similar to the Loans and such provisions with regard to servicing responsibilities, investor reporting, segregation and deposit of principal and interest payments, custody of the Loans, and other covenants as are required by the Purchaser and one or more nationally recognized rating agencies for “AAA” rated mortgage pass-through transactions which are “mortgage related securities” for the purposes of the Secondary Mortgage Market Enhancement Act of 1984, unless otherwise mutually agreed. If the Purchaser deems it advisable at any time to pool the Loans with other loans for the purpose of resale or securitization, the Seller agrees to execute one or more subservicing agreements between itself (as servicer) and a master servicer designated by the Purchaser at its sole discretion, and/or one or more servicing agreements among the Seller (as servicer), the Purchaser and a trustee designated by the Purchaser at its sole discretion, such agreements in each case incorporating terms and provisions substantially identical to those described in the immediately preceding paragraph; and

(9)

to transfer the servicing rights to the Purchaser or its designee as described in Section 15 upon the direction of the Purchaser.

Unless otherwise agreed to between the Seller and the Purchaser, with respect to any Loan Package, the Seller will not be obligated to enter into any Reconstitution Agreement in excess of any express restrictions set forth in the related Assignment and Conveyance and related Confirmation.

All Loans not sold or transferred pursuant to a Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction shall be subject to this Agreement and shall continue to be serviced for the remainder of the Preliminary Servicing Period in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and with respect thereto this Agreement shall remain in full force and effect.

SECTION 13.

The Seller.

Subsection 13.01.

Additional Indemnification by the Seller.

In addition to the indemnification provided in Subsection 7.03, the Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser and hold the Purchaser harmless against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the Purchaser may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Seller to perform its obligations under this Agreement including but not limited to its obligation to service and administer the Loans in strict compliance with the terms of this Agreement or any Reconstitution Agreement entered into pursuant to Section 12.

Subsection 13.02.

Merger or Consolidation of the Seller.

The Seller shall keep in full force and effect its existence, rights and franchises as a partnership under the laws of the state of its formation except as permitted herein, and shall obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement or any of the Loans, and to enable the Seller to perform its duties under this Agreement.

Any Person into which the Seller may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Seller shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Seller, shall be the successor of the Seller hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act on the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person shall be an institution having a GAAP net worth of not less than $25,000,000 and whose deposits are insured by FDIC or a company whose primary business is the origination and servicing of loans, shall be a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac approved seller/servicer in good standing and shall satisfy any requirements of Section 16 with respect to the qualifications of a successor to the Seller.

Subsection 13.03.

Limitation on Liability of the Seller and Others.

Neither the Seller nor any of the officers, employees or agents of the Seller shall be under any liability to the Purchaser for any action taken or for refraining from the taking of any action in good faith in connection with the servicing of the Loans pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors in judgment; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Seller or any such person against any breach of warranties or representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in strict compliance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement. The Seller and any officer, employee or agent of the Seller may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Seller shall not be under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which is not incidental to its obligation to sell or duty to service the Loans in accordance with this Agreement and which in its opinion may result in its incurring any expenses or liability; provided, however, that the Seller may, with the consent of the Purchaser, undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties hereto. In such event, the legal expenses and costs of such action and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities for which the Purchaser shall be liable, the Seller shall be entitled to reimbursement therefor from the Purchaser upon written demand except when such expenses, costs and liabilities are subject to the Seller’s indemnification under Subsections 7.03 or 13.01.

Subsection 13.04.

Seller Not to Resign.

The Seller shall not assign this Agreement or resign from the obligations and duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Seller and the Purchaser or upon the determination that its servicing duties hereunder are no longer permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the Seller, in which event the Seller may resign as servicer. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Seller as servicer shall be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Purchaser which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the Purchaser and which shall be provided at the cost of the Seller. No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall have assumed the Seller’s responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the manner provided in Section 16.

Subsection 13.05.

No Transfer of Servicing.

The Seller acknowledges that the Purchaser has acted in reliance upon the Seller’s independent status, the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plan, personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial standing and the continuance thereof. Without in any way limiting the generality of this Section, the Seller shall not either assign this Agreement or the servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or duties hereunder or any portion thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets, without the prior written approval of the Purchaser, which consent will not be unreasonably withheld.

SECTION 14.

DEFAULT.

Subsection 14.01.

Events of Default.

In case one or more of the following Events of Default by the Seller shall occur and be continuing, that is to say:

(i)

any failure by the Seller to remit to the Purchaser any payment required to be made under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of one (1) Business Day; or

(ii)

failure on the part of the Seller duly to observe or perform in any material respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Seller set forth in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of thirty days (except that such number of days shall be fifteen in the case of a failure to pay any premium for any insurance policy required to be maintained under this Agreement) after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Seller by the Purchaser; or

(iii)

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

(iv)

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

(v)

the Seller shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as they become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency or reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors, or voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or

(vi)

failure by the Seller to be in compliance with the “doing business” or licensing laws of any jurisdiction where a Mortgaged Property is located; or

(vii)

the Seller ceases to be approved by Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac as a seller or servicer; or

(viii)

the Seller attempts to assign its right to servicing compensation hereunder or the Seller attempts, without the consent of the Purchaser, to sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets or to assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or to delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof; or

(ix)

the Seller fails to duly perform, within the required time period, its obligations under Sections 11.24 and 11.25 of the Servicing Addendum, which failure continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30) days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the Seller by any party to this Agreement or by any master servicer responsible for master servicing the Loans pursuant to a securitization of such Loans,

then, and in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have been remedied, the Purchaser, by notice in writing to the Seller may, in addition to whatever rights the Purchaser may have at law or equity to damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, terminate all the rights and obligations of the Seller as servicer under this Agreement. On or after the receipt by the Seller of such written notice, all authority and power of the Seller to service the Loans under this Agreement shall on the date set forth in such notice pass to and be vested in the successor appointed pursuant to Section 16.

Subsection 14.02.

Waiver of Defaults.

The Purchaser may waive any default by the Seller in the performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event of Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every purpose of this Agreement. No such waiver shall extend to any subsequent or other default or impair any right consequent thereon except to the extent expressly so waived.

SECTION 15.

Termination.  The respective obligations and responsibilities of the Seller, as servicer, shall terminate upon the distribution to the Purchaser of the final payment or liquidation with respect to the last Loan (or advances of same by the Seller) or the disposition of all property acquired upon foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure with respect to the last Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder unless terminated with respect to all or a portion of the Loans on an earlier date at the option of the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 15 or pursuant to Section 14. In the event that the Seller is terminated pursuant to this Section 15 without cause, the Purchaser shall pay to the Seller a termination fee in an amount mutually agreed upon. Upon written request from the Purchaser in connection with any such termination, the Seller shall prepare, execute and deliver, any and all documents and other instruments, place in the Purchaser’s possession all Loan Files, and 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 Loans and related documents, or otherwise, at the Seller’s sole expense. The Seller agrees to cooperate with the Purchaser and such successor in effecting the termination of the Seller’s responsibilities and rights hereunder as servicer, including, without limitation, the transfer to such successor for administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited by the Seller to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Loans.

SECTION 16.

Successor to the Seller.  Prior to termination of the Seller’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15, the Purchaser shall (i) succeed to and assume all of the Seller’s responsibilities, rights, duties and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor which shall succeed to all rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the Seller as servicer under this Agreement. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the Purchaser may make such arrangements for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Loans as it and such successor shall agree. In the event that the Seller’s duties, responsibilities and liabilities as servicer under this Agreement should be terminated pursuant to the aforementioned Sections, the Seller shall discharge such duties and responsibilities during the period from the date it acquires knowledge of such termination until the effective date thereof with the same degree of diligence and prudence which it is obligated to exercise under this Agreement, and shall take no action whatsoever that might impair or prejudice the rights or financial condition of the Purchaser or such successor. The termination of the Seller as servicer pursuant to the aforementioned Sections shall not become effective until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section 16 and shall in no event relieve the Seller of the representations and warranties made pursuant to Subsections 7.01 and 7.02 and the remedies available to the Purchaser under Subsection 7.03, 7.04 or 13.01, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Subsections 7.01, 7.02, 7.03, 7.04 and 13.01 shall be applicable to the Seller notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Seller, or the termination of this Agreement.

Any successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver to the Seller and to the Purchaser an instrument accepting such appointment, whereupon such successor shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Seller, with like effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement; provided, however, that such successor shall not assume, and Seller shall indemnify such successor for, any and all liabilities arising out of the Seller’s acts as servicer. Any termination of the Seller as servicer pursuant to Section 13, 14 or 15 shall not affect any claims that the Purchaser may have against the Seller arising prior to any such termination or resignation or remedies with respect to such claims.

If any of the Loans are MERS Loans, in connection with the termination or resignation of the Seller hereunder, either (i) the successor Seller shall represent and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Loans that are registered with MERS, or (ii) the predecessor Seller shall cooperate with the successor Seller either (x) in causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Purchaser and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such Loan or servicing of such Loan on the MERS System to the successor Seller or (y) in causing MERS to designate on the MERS System the successor Seller as the servicer of such Loan.

The Seller shall timely deliver to the successor the funds in the Custodial Account and the Escrow Account and the Loan Files and related documents and statements held by it hereunder and the Seller shall account for all funds.  The Seller shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things all as may reasonably be required to more fully and definitely vest and confirm in the successor all such rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Seller as servicer.  The successor shall make arrangements as it may deem appropriate to reimburse the Seller for amounts the Seller actually expended as servicer pursuant to this Agreement which the successor is entitled to retain hereunder and which would otherwise have been recovered by the Seller pursuant to this Agreement but for the appointment of the successor servicer.

SECTION 17.

Financial Statements.  The Seller understands that in connection with the Purchaser’s marketing of the Loans, the Purchaser shall make available to prospective purchasers the Seller’s financial statements for the most recently completed three fiscal years respecting which such statements are available. The Seller also shall make available any comparable interim statements to the extent any such statements have been prepared by the Seller (and are available upon request to members or stockholders of the Seller or the public at large). The Seller, if it has not already done so, agrees to furnish promptly to the Purchaser copies of the statements specified above. The Seller also shall make available information on its servicing performance with respect to loans serviced for others, including delinquency ratios.

The Seller also agrees to allow access to knowledgeable financial, accounting, origination and servicing officers of the Seller for the purpose of answering questions asked by any prospective purchaser regarding recent developments affecting the Seller, its loan origination or servicing practices or the financial statements of the Seller.

SECTION 18.

Mandatory Delivery; Grant of Security Interest.  The sale and delivery of each Loan on or before the related Closing Date is mandatory from and after the date of the execution of the related Confirmation, it being specifically understood and agreed that each Loan is unique and identifiable on the date of such Confirmation and that an award of money damages would be insufficient to compensate the Initial Purchaser for the losses and damages incurred by the Initial Purchaser (including damages to prospective purchasers of the Loans) in the event of the Seller’s failure to deliver each of the related Loans or one or more Loans otherwise acceptable to the Initial Purchaser on or before the related Closing Date. The Seller hereby grants to the Initial Purchaser a lien on and a continuing security interest in each Loan and each document and instrument evidencing each such Loan to secure the performance by the Seller of its obligations hereunder, and the Seller agrees that it holds such Loans in custody for the Initial Purchaser subject to the Initial Purchaser’s (i) right to reject any Loan under the terms of this Agreement and the related Confirmation, and (ii) obligation to pay the related Purchase Price for the Loans.  All rights and remedies of the Purchaser under this Agreement are distinct from, and cumulative with, any other rights or remedies under this Agreement or afforded by law or equity and all such rights and remedies may be exercised concurrently, independently or successively.

SECTION 19.

Notices.  All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if mailed, by registered or certified mail, return receipt requested, or, if by other means, when received by the other party at the address as follows:

SECTION 20.

Severability Clause.  Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or which is held to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable or is held to be void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective, as to such jurisdiction, to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction as to any Loan shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law which prohibits or renders void or unenforceable any provision hereof. If the invalidity of any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement shall deprive any party of the economic benefit intended to be conferred by this Agreement, the parties shall negotiate, in good-faith, to develop a structure the economic effect of which is nearly as possible the same as the economic effect of this Agreement without regard to such invalidity.

SECTION 21.

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

SECTION 22.

SECTION 23.

Intention of the Parties.  It is the intention of the parties that the Initial Purchaser is purchasing, and the Seller is selling, the Loans and not a debt instrument of the Seller or another security. Accordingly, the parties hereto each intend to treat the transaction for federal income tax purposes as a sale by the Seller, and a purchase by the Purchaser, of the Loans. The Initial Purchaser shall have the right to review the Loans and the related Loan Files to determine the characteristics of the Loans which shall affect the Federal income tax consequences of owning the Loans and the Seller shall cooperate with all reasonable requests made by the Initial Purchaser in the course of such review.

SECTION 24.

Successors and Assigns.  This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the Seller and the Purchaser and the respective successors and assigns of the Seller and the Purchaser. The Purchaser may assign this Agreement to any Person to whom any Loan is transferred whether pursuant to a sale or financing and to any Person to whom the servicing or master servicing of any Loan is sold or transferred. Upon any such assignment, the person to whom such assignment is made shall succeed to all rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement to the extent of the related Loan or Loans and this Agreement, to the extent of the related Loan or Loans, shall be deemed to be a separate and distinct Agreement between the Seller and such Purchaser, and a separate and distinct Agreement between the Seller and each other Purchaser to the extent of the other related Loan or Loans. In the event that this Agreement is assigned to any Person to whom the servicing or master servicing of any Loan is sold or transferred, the rights and benefits under this Agreement which inure to the Purchaser shall inure to the benefit of both the Person to whom such Loan is transferred and the Person to whom the servicing or master servicing of the Loan has been transferred; provided that, the right to require a Loan to be repurchased by the Seller pursuant to Subsection 7.03, 7.04 or 7.05 shall be retained solely by the Purchaser. This Agreement shall not be assigned, pledged or hypothecated by the Seller to a third party without the consent of the Purchaser.

SECTION 25.

Waivers.  No term or provision of this Agreement may be waived or modified unless such waiver or modification is in writing and signed by the party against whom such waiver or modification is sought to be enforced.

SECTION 26.

SECTION 27.

Nonsolicitation.  The Seller covenants and agrees that it will not take any action or permit or cause any action to be taken by any of its agents or affiliates, or by any independent contractor(s) on the Seller’s behalf, to personally, by telephone or mail, solicit the Borrower or obligor under any Loan to refinance the Loan, in whole or in part, without the prior written consent of the Purchaser; provided that, the foregoing shall not preclude the Seller from engaging in solicitations to the general public by newspaper, radio, television or other media which are not directed toward the Borrowers.

SECTION 28.

Relationship of the Parties.  Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto and the services of the Servicer shall be rendered as an independent contractor and not as agent for the Purchaser.

SECTION 33.

Compliance with Regulation AB.  

Subsection 33.01.

Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness.

The Purchaser and the Seller acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Section 33 of this Agreement is to facilitate compliance by the Purchaser and any Depositor with the provisions of Regulation AB and related rules and regulations of the Commission. Although Regulation AB is applicable by its terms only to offerings of asset-backed securities that are registered under the Securities Act, the Seller acknowledges that investors in privately offered securities may require that the Purchaser or any Depositor provide comparable disclosure in unregistered offerings.  References in this Agreement to compliance with Regulation AB include provision of comparable disclosure in private offerings.

Neither the Purchaser nor any Depositor shall exercise its right to request delivery of information or other performance under these provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes other than compliance with the Securities Act, the Exchange Act and, in each case, the rules and regulations of the Commission thereunder (or the provision in a private offering of disclosure comparable to that required under the Securities Act) and the Sarbanes-Oxley Act. The Seller acknowledges that interpretations of the requirements of Regulation AB may change over time, whether due to interpretive guidance provided by the Commission or its staff, consensus among participants in the asset-backed securities markets, advice of counsel, or otherwise, and agrees to comply with requests made by the Purchaser, any Master Servicer or any Depositor in good faith for delivery of information under these provisions on the basis of established and evolving interpretations of Regulation AB. In connection with any Securitization Transaction, the Seller shall cooperate fully with the Purchaser and any Master Servicer to deliver to the Purchaser (including any of its assignees or designees), any Master Servicer and any Depositor, any and all statements, reports, certifications, records and any other information necessary in the good faith determination of the Purchaser, the Master Servicer or any Depositor to permit the Purchaser, such Master Servicer or such Depositor to comply with the provisions of Regulation AB, together with such disclosures relating to the Seller, any Subservicer, any Third-Party Originator and the Loans, or the servicing of the Loans, reasonably believed by the Purchaser or any Depositor to be necessary in order to effect such compliance.

The Purchaser (including any of its assignees or designees) shall cooperate with the Seller by providing timely notice of requests for information under these provisions and by reasonably limiting such requests to information required, in the Purchaser’s reasonable judgment, to comply with Regulation AB.

Subsection 33.02.

[FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE SELLER]

(DATE)

UBS Real Estate Securities Inc.

1285 Avenue of the Americas

New York, New York 10019

Re:

Amended and Restated Master Loan Purchase and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2006

Gentlemen:

I have acted as counsel to Provident Funding Associates, a _____________ (the “Seller”), in connection with the sale of certain loans by the Seller to UBS Real Estate Securities Inc. (“the “Purchaser”) pursuant to (i) a Amended and Restated Master Loan Purchase and Servicing Agreement, dated as of March 1, 2006, between the Seller and the Purchaser (the “Purchase Agreement”) [and the Confirmation, dated ___________________________,  200_, between the Seller and the Purchaser (the “Confirmation”)].  Capitalized terms not otherwise defined herein have the meanings set forth in the Purchase Agreement.

In connection with rendering this opinion letter, I, or attorneys working under my direction have examined, among other things, originals, certified copies or copies otherwise identified to my satisfaction as being true copies of the following:

A.

The Purchase Agreement;

B.

[The Confirmation;]

C.

The Seller’s certificate of limited partnership and limited partnership agreement, as amended to date; and

D.

Resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Seller with specific reference to actions relating to the transactions covered by this opinion (the “Board Resolutions”).

For the purpose of rendering this opinion, I have made such documentary, factual and legal examinations as I deemed necessary under the circumstances. As to factual matters, I have relied upon statements, certificates and other assurances of public officials and of officers and other representatives of the Seller, and upon such other certificates as I deemed appropriate, which factual matters have not been independently established or verified by me. I have also assumed, among other things, the genuineness of all signatures, the legal capacity of all natural persons, the authenticity of all documents submitted to me as originals, and the conformity to original documents of all documents submitted to me as copies and the authenticity of the originals of such copied documents.

On the basis of and subject to the foregoing examination, and in reliance thereon, and subject to the assumptions, qualifications, exceptions and limitations expressed herein, I am of the opinion that:

1.

The Seller has been duly formed and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of California with corporate power and authority to own its properties and conduct its business as presently conducted by it. The Seller has the corporate power and authority to service the Loans, and to execute, deliver, and perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement [and the Confirmation] (sometimes collectively, the “Agreements”).

2.

The Purchase Agreement [and the Confirmation] have been duly and validly authorized, executed and delivered by the Seller.

3.

The Purchase Agreement [and the Confirmation] constitute valid, legal and binding obligations of the Seller, enforceable against the Seller in accordance with their respective terms.

4.

No consent, approval, authorization or order of any state or federal court or government agency or body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Seller of the Purchase Agreement [and the Confirmation], or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by the Purchase Agreement [and the Confirmation], except for those consents, approvals, authorizations or orders which previously have been obtained.

5.

Neither the servicing of the Loans by the Seller as provided in the Purchase Agreement [and the Confirmation,] nor the fulfillment of the terms of or the consummation of any other transactions contemplated in the Purchase Agreement will result in a breach of any term or provision of the certificate of limited partnership or limited partnership agreement of the Seller, or, to the best of my knowledge, will conflict with, result in a breach or violation of, or constitute a default under, (i) the terms of any indenture or other agreement or instrument known to me to which the Seller is a party or by which it is bound, (ii) any state or federal statute or regulation applicable to the Seller, or (iii) any order of any state or federal court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having jurisdiction over the Seller, except in any such case where the default, breach or violation would not have a material adverse effect on the Seller or its ability to perform its obligations under the Purchase Agreement [and the Confirmation].

6.

There is no action, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best of my knowledge, threatened against the Seller which, in my judgment, either in any one instance or in the aggregate, would draw into question the validity of the Purchase Agreement [or the Confirmation] or which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Seller to perform under the terms of the Purchase Agreement [or the Confirmation].

7.

The sale of each Note and Mortgage as and in the manner contemplated by the Purchase Agreement is sufficient fully to transfer to the Purchaser all right, title and interest of the Seller thereto as noteholder and mortgagee.

8.

The Assignments of Mortgage are in recordable form and upon completion will be acceptable for recording under the laws of each applicable state. When endorsed, as provided in the Purchase Agreement, the Notes will be duly endorsed under applicable law.

The opinions above are subject to the following additional assumptions, exceptions, qualifications and limitations:

A.

I have assumed that all parties to the Agreements other than the Seller have all requisite power and authority to execute, deliver and perform their respective obligations under each of the Agreements, and that the Agreements have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of such parties, have been executed and delivered by such parties and constitute the legal, valid and binding obligations of such parties.

B.

My opinion expressed in paragraphs 3 and 7 above is subject to the qualifications that (i) the enforceability of the Agreements may be limited by the effect of laws relating to (1) bankruptcy, reorganization, insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating to creditors’ rights generally, including, without limitation, the effect of statutory or other laws regarding fraudulent conveyances or preferential transfers, and (2) general principles of equity upon the specific enforceability of any of the remedies, covenants or other provisions of the Agreements and upon the availability of injunctive relief or other equitable remedies and the application of principles of equity (regardless of whether such enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law) as such principles relate to, limit or affect the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and the discretion of the court before which any proceeding for such enforcement may be brought; and (ii) I express no opinion herein with respect to the validity, legality, binding effect or enforceability of (a) provisions for indemnification in the Agreements to the extent such provisions may be held to be unenforceable as contrary to public policy or (b) Section 18 of the Purchase Agreement.

C.

I have assumed, without independent check or certification, that there are no agreements or understandings among the Seller, the Purchaser and any other party which would expand, modify or otherwise affect the terms of the documents described herein or the respective rights or obligations of the parties thereunder.


I am admitted to practice in the State of _______________________________  and I render no opinion herein as to matters involving the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of _________ and the Federal laws of the United States of America.

Very truly yours,

SERVICING ADDENDUM

Section 11.01

Seller to Act as Servicer.

The Seller, as independent contract servicer, shall service and administer the Loans in accordance with this Agreement and shall have full power and authority, acting alone, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with such servicing and administration which the Seller may deem necessary or desirable and consistent with the terms of this Agreement and with Accepted Servicing Practices.

Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Seller may waive, modify or vary any term of any Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Borrower if in the Seller’s reasonable and prudent determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the Purchaser; provided, however, that without the prior written consent of the Purchaser, the Seller shall not permit any modification with respect to any Loan that would change the Loan Interest Rate, defer or forgive the payment thereof or of any principal or interest payments, reduce the outstanding principal amount (except for actual payments of principal), make additional advances of additional principal or extend the final maturity date on such Loan. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller shall continue, and is hereby authorized and empowered, to execute and deliver on behalf of itself, and the Purchaser, all instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Loans.  If reasonably required by the Seller, the Purchaser shall furnish the Seller with any powers of attorney and other documents necessary or appropriate to enable the Seller to carry out its servicing and administrative duties under this Agreement.

In servicing and administering the Loans, the Seller shall employ procedures (including collection procedures) and exercise the same care that it customarily employs and exercises in servicing and administering loans for its own account, giving due consideration to Accepted Servicing Practices where such practices do not conflict with the requirements of this Agreement, and the Purchaser’s reliance on the Seller.

Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Purchaser may at any time and from time to time, in its sole discretion, upon thirty (30) days written notice to the Seller, terminate the Seller’s servicing obligations hereunder with respect to (1) any REO Property or (2) any Loan that is 90 or more days delinquent. Upon the effectiveness of any such termination of the Seller’s servicing obligations with respect to any such REO Property or Loan, the Seller shall deliver all agreements, documents, and instruments related thereto to the Purchaser, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices and applicable law and shall transfer servicing to the Purchaser’s designee in accordance with Acceptable Servicing Practices. In the event of any such termination with respect to any Loan or REO Property, the Purchaser shall immediately reimburse the Seller for all itemized Monthly Advances and Servicing Advances of the Seller with respect to such Loan or REO Property for which the Seller would be entitled to be reimbursed pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

The Seller shall accurately and fully report its borrower credit files related to the Loans to Equifax, Transunion and Experian in a timely manner.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Principal Prepayment in full or in part of a Loan, the Seller may not waive any prepayment penalty or portion thereof required by the terms of the related Note unless (i) the Seller determines that such waiver would maximize recovery of Liquidation Proceeds for such Loan, taking into account the value of such prepayment penalty and the Loan, and the waiver of such prepayment penalty is standard and customary in servicing similar Loans (including the waiver of a prepayment penalty in connection with a refinancing of the Loan related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default) or (ii) (A) the enforceability thereof is limited (1) by bankruptcy, insolvency, moratorium, receivership, or other similar law relating to creditors’ rights or (2) due to acceleration in connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment, or (B) the enforceability is otherwise limited or prohibited by subsequent changes in applicable law.  In no event shall the Seller waive a prepayment penalty in connection with a refinancing of a Loan that is not related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default.  If the Seller waives or does not collect all or a portion of a prepayment penalty relating to a Principal Prepayment in full or in part due to any action or omission of the Seller, other than as provided above, the Seller shall deposit the amount of such prepayment penalty (or such portion thereof as had been waived for deposit) into the Custodial Account at the time of such prepayment for distribution in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.

Section 11.02

Collection of Loan Payments.

Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest on all Loans are paid in full, the Seller shall proceed diligently to collect all payments due under each Loan when the same shall become due and payable and shall, to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement and the terms and provisions of any related Primary Insurance Policy, follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to loans comparable to the Loans and held for its own account. Further, the Seller shall take special care in ascertaining and estimating annual ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, fire and hazard insurance premiums, mortgage insurance premiums, and all other charges that, as provided in the Mortgage will become due and payable to the end that the installments payable by the Borrowers will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable.

Section 11.03

Realization Upon Defaulted Loans.

(a)

The Seller shall use its best efforts, consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices and the procedures that the Seller would use in servicing loans for its own account, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of such Mortgaged Properties as come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 11.01. The Seller shall use its best efforts to realize upon defaulted Loans in such a manner as will maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the Purchaser, taking into account, among other things, the timing of foreclosure proceedings. The foregoing is subject to the provisions that, in any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Seller shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property unless it shall determine in its discretion (i) that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Loan to Purchaser after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable by the Seller through Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Section 11.05. In the event that any payment due under any Loan is not paid when the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Borrower fails to perform any other covenant or obligation under the Loan and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Seller shall take such action as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the Purchaser.

In the event any payment due under any Loan is not paid when the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Borrower fails to perform any other covenant or obligation under the Loan, and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Seller will proceed diligently to collect all payments due and shall take such action, including commencing foreclosure, as it shall reasonably deem to be in the best interests of the Purchaser in a manner consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices.  Should any Loan remain delinquent for a period of 90 days, the Seller shall use Accepted Servicing Practices and refer the file to foreclosure by the 120th day of delinquency. Notification of foreclosure proceedings shall be reported to the Purchaser.

Should a foreclosure sale be imminent, the Seller shall obtain a value and issue bidding instructions in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.

(b)

Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Section 11.03, with respect to any Loan as to which the Seller has received actual notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the related Mortgaged Property, the Seller shall not either (i) obtain title to such Mortgaged Property as a result of or in lieu of foreclosure or otherwise, or (ii) otherwise acquire possession of, or take any other action, with respect to, such Mortgaged Property if, as a result of any such action, the Purchaser would be considered to hold title to, to be a mortgagee-in-possession of, or to be an owner or operator of such Mortgaged Property within the meaning of the Comprehensive Environmental Response, Compensation and Liability Act of 1980, as amended from time to time, or any comparable law, unless the Seller has also previously determined, based on its reasonable judgment and a prudent report prepared by a Person who regularly conducts environmental audits using customary industry standards, that:

(1)

such Mortgaged Property is in compliance with applicable environmental laws or, if not, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Purchaser to take such actions as are necessary to bring the Mortgaged Property into compliance therewith; and

(2)

there are no circumstances present at such Mortgaged Property relating to the use, management or disposal of any hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials for which investigation, testing, monitoring, containment, clean-up or remediation could be required under any federal, state or local law or regulation, or that if any such materials are present for which such action could be required, that it would be in the best economic interest of the Purchaser to take such actions with respect to the affected Mortgaged Property.

The cost of the environmental audit report contemplated by this Section 11.03 shall be advanced by the Seller, subject to the Seller’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Custodial Account as provided in Section 11.05(vii).

The cost of any such compliance, containment, cleanup or remediation shall be advanced by the Seller, subject to the Seller’s right to be reimbursed therefor from the Custodial Account as provided in Section 11.05(vii).

The Seller shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Loan separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts.  The creation of any Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a Custodial Account Letter Agreement in the form of Exhibit 7.

The Seller shall deposit in the Custodial Account on a daily basis, and retain therein the following payments and collections received by it subsequent to the Cut-off Date, or received by it

The Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a Custodial Account Letter Agreement in the form attached as Exhibit 7 hereto. Such Custodial Account Letter Agreement shall provide that such account is a special deposit, required to be segregated and held by the depository institution maintaining such account in a fiduciary capacity, separate and apart from the institution’s own funds and general assets and that the account shall not be held in any capacity that would create a debtor-creditor relationship between the institution and the Seller or the Purchaser.

(i)

to make distributions to the Purchaser in the amounts and in the manner provided for in Section 11.14;

(ii)

to reimburse itself for Monthly Advances, the Seller’s right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause (ii) being limited to amounts received on the related Loan which represent late collections (net of the related Servicing Fees) respecting which any such advance was made it being understood that, in the case of such reimbursement, the Seller’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of Purchaser, except that, where the Seller is required to repurchase a Loan, pursuant to Subsection 7.03, the Seller’s right to such reimbursement shall be subsequent to the payment to the Purchaser of the Repurchase Price pursuant to Subsection 7.03, and all other amounts required to be paid to the Purchaser with respect to such Loan;

(iii)

to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances, the Seller’s right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause (iii) with respect to any Loan being limited to related Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and such other amounts as may be collected by the Seller from the Borrower or otherwise relating to the Loan, it being understood that, in the case of such reimbursement, the Seller’s right thereto shall be prior to the rights of the Purchaser, except that, where the Seller is required to repurchase a Loan, pursuant to Section 7.03, the Seller’s right to such reimbursement shall be subsequent to the payment to the Purchaser of the Repurchase Price pursuant to Section 7.03 and all other amounts required to be paid to the Purchaser with respect to such Loans;

(iv)

to pay to itself pursuant to Section 11.22 as servicing compensation (a) any interest earned on funds in the Custodial Account (all such interest to be withdrawn monthly not later than each Distribution Date), and (b) the Servicing Fee from that portion of any payment or recovery as to interest on a particular Loan and (c) any Prepayment Interest Excess to the extent set forth in Section 11.22;

to clear and terminate the Custodial Account on the termination of this Agreement; and

(ix)

to reimburse the Seller for funds deposited in the Custodial Account in error.

The Seller shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Loan by Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Custodial Account pursuant to such subclauses (ii) - (vii) above. The Seller shall provide written notification in the form of an Officers’ Certificate to the Purchaser, on or prior to the next succeeding Distribution Date, upon making any withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to subclause (vi) above.

Section 11.06

Establishment of Escrow Accounts: Deposits in Escrow Accounts.

The Seller shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Loan which constitute Escrow Payments separate and apart from any of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Escrow Accounts, in the form of time deposit or demand accounts.  The creation of any Escrow Account shall be evidenced by Escrow Account Letter Agreement in the form of Exhibit 8.

The Seller shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts on a daily basis, and retain therein, (i) all Escrow Payments collected on account of the Loans, for the purpose of effecting timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this Agreement and (ii) all Insurance Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of any Mortgaged Property.  The Seller shall make withdrawals therefrom only to effect such payments as are required under this Agreement, and for such other purposes as shall be as set forth or in accordance with Section 11.08.  The Seller shall be entitled to retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account by the depository institution other than interest on escrowed funds required by law to be paid to the Borrower and, to the extent required by law, the Seller shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the Borrower notwithstanding that the Escrow Account is non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes.

Section 11.07

Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account.

Withdrawals from the Escrow Account may be made by the Seller (i) to effect timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, hazard insurance premiums, Primary Insurance Policy premiums, if applicable, and comparable items, (ii) to reimburse the Seller for any Servicing Advance made by the Seller with respect to a related Loan but only from amounts received on the related Loan which represent late payments or collections of Escrow Payments thereunder, (iii) to refund to the Borrower any funds as may be determined to be overages, (iv) for transfer to the Custodial Account in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, (v) for application to restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property, (vi) to pay to the Seller, or to the Borrower to the extent required by law, any interest paid on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account, (vii) to clear and terminate the Escrow Account on the termination of this Agreement, or (viii) to withdraw funds deposited in the Escrow Account in error.

Section 11.08

Payment of Taxes Insurance and Other Charges; Maintenance of Primary Insurance Policies; Collections Thereunder.

With respect to each Loan, the Seller shall maintain accurate records reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates and other charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the status of Primary Insurance Policy premiums and fire and hazard insurance coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of such charges, including insurance renewal premiums and shall effect payment thereof prior to the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate for securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of the Borrower in the Escrow Account which shall have been estimated and accumulated by the Seller in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the terms of the Mortgage and applicable law. To the extent that the Mortgage does not provide for Escrow Payments, the Seller shall determine that any such payments are made by the Borrower at the time they first become due. The Seller assumes full responsibility for the timely payment of all such bills and shall effect timely payments of all such bills irrespective of the Borrower’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.

The Seller shall maintain in full force and effect, a Primary Insurance Policy, issued by a Qualified Insurer, with respect to each Loan for which such coverage is required.  Such coverage shall be maintained until the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the related Loan is reduced to that amount for which Fannie Mae no longer requires such insurance to be maintained.  The Seller will not cancel or refuse to renew any Primary Insurance Policy in effect on the Closing Date that is required to be kept in force under this Agreement unless a replacement Primary Insurance Policy for such cancelled or non-renewed policy is obtained from and maintained with a Qualified Insurer.  The Seller shall not take any action which would result in non-coverage under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy of any loss which, but for the actions of the Seller, would have been covered thereunder.  In connection with any assumption or substitution agreement entered into or to be entered into pursuant to Section 11.19, the Seller shall promptly notify the insurer under the related Primary Insurance Policy, if any, of such assumption or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such policy and shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as a condition to the continuation of coverage under the Primary Insurance Policy. If such Primary Insurance Policy is terminated as a result of such assumption or substitution of liability, the Seller shall obtain a replacement Primary Insurance Policy as provided above.

In connection with its activities as servicer, the Seller agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of itself, and the Purchaser, claims to the insurer under any Primary Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policies and, in this regard, to take such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Insurance Policy respecting a defaulted Loan.  Pursuant to Section 11.04, any amounts collected by the Seller under any Primary Insurance Policy, shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 11.05.

Section 11.09

Transfer of Accounts.

The Seller may transfer the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account to a different depository institution from time to time. Such transfer shall be made only upon obtaining the consent of the Purchaser, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld. In any case, the Custodial Account and Escrow Account shall be Eligible Accounts.

Section 11.10

Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

The Seller shall cause to be maintained for each Loan fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage as is customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements which are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis or (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to prevent the Borrower and/or the Mortgagee from becoming a co-insurer. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified on a Flood Hazard Boundary Map or Flood Insurance Rate Map issued by the Flood Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards and such flood insurance has been made available, the Seller will cause to be maintained a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, in an amount representing coverage not less than the lesser of (i) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan or (ii) the maximum amount of insurance which is available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 or the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended.  The Seller also shall maintain on any REO Property, fire and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such property and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the related Loan at the time it became an REO Property, liability insurance and, to the extent required and available under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968 or the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in an amount as provided above. Pursuant to Section 11.04, any amounts collected by the Seller under any such policies other than amounts to be deposited in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or REO Property, or released to the Borrower in accordance with the Seller’s normal servicing procedures, shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 11.05.  Any cost incurred by the Seller in maintaining any such insurance shall not, for the purpose of calculating distributions to the Purchaser, be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance need be required by the Seller of the Borrower or maintained on property acquired in respect of the 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. All such policies shall be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Seller, or upon request to the Purchaser, and shall provide for at least thirty days prior written notice of any cancellation, reduction in the amount of, or material change in, coverage to the Seller. The Seller shall not interfere with the Borrower’s freedom of choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, provided, however, that the Seller shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such companies currently reflect a General Policy Rating of A:VI or better in Best’s Key Rating Guide and are licensed to do business in the state wherein the property subject to the policy is located.

Section 11.11

Maintenance of Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy.

In the event that the Seller shall obtain and maintain a mortgage impairment or blanket policy issued by an issuer that has a Best rating of A:VI insuring against hazard losses on all of Mortgaged Properties securing the Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Section 11.10 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section 11.10, the Seller shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Section 11.10, it being understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Seller shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with Section 11.10, and there shall have been one or more losses which would have been covered by such policy, deposit in the Custodial Account the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such deductible clause. In connection with its activities as servicer of the Loans, the Seller agrees to prepare and present, on behalf of the Purchaser, claims under any such blanket policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy.  Upon request of the Purchaser, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a certified true copy of such policy and a statement from the insurer thereunder that such policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without thirty days prior written notice to the Purchaser.

Section 11.12

Fidelity Bond, Errors and Omissions Insurance.

The Seller shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage with responsible companies that would meet the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any capacity with regard to the Loans to handle funds, money, documents and papers relating to the Loans.  The fidelity bond and errors and omissions insurance shall be in the form of the Mortgage Banker’s Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Seller against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, fraud, errors and omissions and negligent acts of such persons.  Such fidelity bond shall also protect and insure the Seller against losses in connection with the failure to maintain any insurance policies required pursuant to this Agreement and the release or satisfaction of a Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby.  No provision of this Section 11.12 requiring the fidelity bond and errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Seller from its duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement.  The minimum coverage under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the corresponding amounts required by Fannie Mae in the Fannie Mae Servicing Guide or by Freddie Mac in the Freddie Mac Sellers’ and Servicers’ Guide. Upon request of the Purchaser, the Seller shall cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a certified true copy of the fidelity bond and insurance policy and a statement from the surety and the insurer that such fidelity bond or insurance policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without thirty days’ prior written notice to the Purchaser.

Section 11.13

Title Management and Disposition of REO Property.

In the event that title to the Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by deed in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of the person designated by the Purchaser, or in the event such person is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under the “doing business” or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as shall be consistent with an opinion of counsel obtained by the Seller from an attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property is located.  Any Person or Persons holding such title other than the Purchaser shall acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the benefit of the Purchaser.

The Seller shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Seller (such agents fees and expenses to be paid by the Seller without right to reimbursement therefore), manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property (and may temporarily rent the same) in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and operates other foreclosed property for its own account, in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed, and in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices.  If a REMIC election is or is to be made with respect to the arrangement under which the Loans and any REO Property are held, the Seller shall manage, conserve, protect and operate each REO Property in a manner which does not cause such REO Property to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code or result in the receipt by such REMIC of any “income from non-permitted assets” within the meaning of Section 860F(a)(2)(B) of the Code or any “net income from foreclosure property” within the meaning of Section 860G(c)(2) of the Code. The Seller shall cause each REO Property to be inspected promptly upon the acquisition of title thereto and shall cause each REO Property to be inspected at least annually thereafter. The Seller shall make or cause to be made a written report of each such inspection. Such reports shall be retained in the Loan File and copies thereof shall be forwarded by the Seller to the Purchaser. The Seller shall use its best efforts to dispose of the REO Property as soon as possible and shall sell such REO Property in any event within three years after title has been taken to such REO Property, unless the Seller determines, and gives appropriate notice to the Purchaser, that a longer period is necessary for the orderly liquidation of such REO Property.  If a period longer than three years is necessary to sell any REO property, (i) the Seller shall report monthly to the Purchaser as to the progress being made in selling such REO Property and (ii) if, with the written consent of the Purchaser, a purchase money mortgage is taken in connection with such sale, such purchase money mortgage shall name the Seller as mortgagee, and a separate servicing agreement between the Seller and the Purchaser shall be entered into with respect to such purchase money mortgage.  Notwithstanding the foregoing, if a REMIC election is made with respect to the arrangement under which the Loans and the REO Property are held, such REO Property shall be disposed of within three years or such other period as may be permitted under Section 860G(a)(8) of the Code.

With respect to each REO Property, the Seller shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received in connection with the operation of the REO Property separate and apart from its own funds or general assets and shall deposit such funds in the Custodial Account, unless an Opinion of Counsel is obtained by the Seller to the effect that the classification as a grantor trust or REMIC for federal income tax purposes of the arrangement under which the Loans and the REO Property is held will not be adversely affected by holding such funds in another manner.

The Seller shall deposit or cause to be deposited, on a daily basis in the Custodial Account all revenues received with respect to the related REO Property and shall withdraw therefrom funds necessary for the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to Section 11.10 hereof.

The Seller shall furnish to the Purchaser on each Distribution Date, an operating statement for each REO Property subject to rental agreements covering the operation of each such REO Property for the previous month. Such operating statement shall be accompanied by such other information as the Purchaser shall reasonably request.

Each REO Disposition shall be carried out by the Seller at such price and upon such terms and conditions as the Seller deems to be in the best interest of the Purchaser only with the prior written consent of the Purchaser.  If as of the date title to any REO Property was acquired by the Seller there were outstanding unreimbursed Servicing Advances with respect to the REO Property, the Seller, upon an REO Disposition of such REO Property, shall be entitled to reimbursement for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances from proceeds received in connection with such REO Disposition. The proceeds from the REO Disposition, net of any payment to the Seller as provided above, shall be deposited in the Custodial Account following receipt thereof for distribution on the succeeding Distribution Date in accordance with Section 11.14.

Section 11.14

Distributions.

On each Distribution Date, the Seller shall distribute to the Purchaser all amounts credited to the Custodial Account as of the close of business on the preceding Determination Date, net of charges against or withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 11.05; plus (ii) all Monthly Advances, if any, which the Seller is obligated to distribute pursuant to Section 11.21, minus (iii) any amounts attributable to Principal Prepayments received after the Prepayment Period which amounts shall be remitted on the following Distribution Date, together with any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls required to be deposited in the Custodial Account in connection with such Principal Prepayment in accordance with Section 11.04(xi) of this Servicing Addendum.

All distributions made to the Purchaser on each Distribution Date will be made to the Purchaser of record on the preceding Record Date, and shall be based on the Loans owned and held by the Purchaser, and shall be made by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account of the Purchaser at a bank or other entity having appropriate facilities therefor, if the Purchaser shall have so notified the Seller or by check mailed to the address of the Purchaser.

With respect to any remittance received by the Purchaser following the Business Day on which such payment was due, the Seller shall pay to the Purchaser interest on any such late payment at an annual rate equal to the rate of interest as is publicly announced from time to time at its principal office by JPMorgan Chase Bank, New York, New York, as its prime lending rate, adjusted as of the date of each change, plus three percentage points, but in no event greater than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall be paid by the Seller to the Purchaser on the date such late payment is made and shall cover the period commencing with the day following the Business Day on which such payment was due and ending with the Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. Such interest shall be remitted along with such late payment.  The payment by the Seller of any such interest shall not be deemed an extension of time for payment or a waiver of any Event of Default by the Seller.

Section 11.15

Remittance Reports.

On or prior to the fifth Business Day of each month, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser in electronic format and hard copy a remittance advice (a “Monthly Remittance Advice”) substantially in the forms attached hereto as Exhibit 14-1 and Exhibit 14-2, or in such other forms as may be mutually agreed upon by the Seller and any Master Servicer, which shall include among other information, the number of days which each Loan is delinquent, and shall contain an explanation of all Servicing Advances made, the status of all Loans in foreclosure or otherwise the subject of litigation, and the status of all other collection efforts with respect to each Loan, and all realized losses detailed on a Form 332, attached as Exhibit 14-3, or in such other form as may be mutually agreed upon by the Seller and any related Master Servicer.

In addition, on or prior to the fifth Business Day of each month the Seller shall furnish to Purchaser an individual loan accounting report (“Report”), as of the last Business Day of the prior month, in Purchaser’s assigned loan number order to document Loan payment activity on an individual Loan basis.  Each Report shall contain the following:

(i)

with respect to each Monthly Payment, the amount of such remittance allocable to principal (including a separate breakdown of any Principal Prepayment, including the date of such prepayment, and any prepayment penalties, along with a detailed report of interest on Principal Prepayment amounts remitted in accordance with Section 11.14 of this Servicing Addendum);

(ii)

with respect to each Monthly Payment, the amount of such remittance allocable to interest;

(iii)

the aggregate of any expenses reimbursed to the Seller during the prior distribution period pursuant to Section 11.05 or 11.07 of this Servicing Addendum;

(viii)

the current Due Date of each Loan; and

(ix)

any such other related information as reasonably requested by the Purchaser.

The Seller shall also provide a trial balance, sorted in Purchaser's assigned loan number order with each such Report.

Section 11.16

Statements to the Purchaser.

Upon Purchaser’s request, the Seller shall forward to the Purchaser or its designee a statement prepared by the Seller setting forth the status of the Custodial Account as of the close of business on the most recent Distribution Date and showing, for the period covered by such statement, the aggregate amount of deposits into and withdrawals from the Custodial  Account of each category of deposit specified in Section 11.04 and each category of withdrawal specified in Section 11.05.

In addition, not more than ninety days after the end of each calendar year, the Seller shall furnish to each Person who was the Purchaser at any time during such calendar year, as to the aggregate of remittances for the applicable portion of such year, a statement in accordance with the requirements of applicable federal income tax law.

The Seller shall prepare and file any and all tax returns, information statements or other filings required to be delivered to any governmental taxing authority or to any Purchaser pursuant to Accepted Servicing Practices or any applicable law with respect to the Loans and the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser with such information concerning the Loans as is necessary for the Purchaser to prepare its federal income tax return as any Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time.

Section 11.17

Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Section 11.18, with respect to any REO Property, the Seller shall furnish to the Purchaser a statement covering the Seller’s efforts in connection with the sale of such REO Property and any rental of such REO Property incidental to the sale thereof for the previous month, together with the operating statement for those REO Properties that are subject to rental agreements. Such statement shall be accompanied by such other information as the Purchaser shall reasonably request.

Section 11.18

Foreclosure Reports.

Upon the foreclosure sale of any Mortgaged Property or the acquisition thereof by the Purchaser pursuant to a deed in lieu of foreclosure, the Seller shall submit to the Purchaser a report with respect to such Mortgaged Property.  The Seller shall notify the Purchaser of an acquired property within twenty-four (24) hours of such sale via e-mail or facsimile.

Section 11.19

Assumption Agreements.

The Seller shall, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance by any Borrower of the Mortgaged Property (whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Borrower remains or is to remain liable under the Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Loan under any “due-on-sale” clause applicable thereto; provided, however, that the Seller shall not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law from doing so or if the exercise of such rights would impair or threaten to impair any recovery under the related Primary Insurance Policy, if any.  If the Seller reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce such “due-on-sale” clause, the Seller shall enter into an assumption agreement with the person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which such person becomes liable under the Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Borrower remains liable thereon. Where an assumption is allowed pursuant to this Section 11.19, the Seller, with the prior written consent of the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any, is authorized to enter into a substitution of liability agreement with the person to whom the Mortgaged Property has been conveyed  or is proposed to be conveyed pursuant to which the original Borrower is released from liability and such Person is substituted as Borrower and becomes liable under the related Note.  Any such substitution of liability agreement shall be in lieu of an assumption agreement.

In connection with any such assumption or substitution of liability, the Seller shall follow the underwriting practices and procedures of prudent mortgage lenders in the state in which the related Mortgaged Property is located.  With respect to an assumption or substitution of liability, Loan Interest Rate, the amount of the Monthly Payment, and the final maturity date of such Note may not be changed.  The Seller shall notify the Purchaser that any such substitution of liability or assumption agreement has been completed by forwarding to the Purchaser the original of any such substitution of liability or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Loan File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Loan File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this Section or any other provision of this Agreement, the Seller shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the Seller may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever. For purposes of this Section 11.19, the term “assumption” is deemed to also include a sale of the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or substitution of liability agreement.

Section 11.20

Satisfaction of Mortgages and Release of Loan Files.

Upon the payment in full of any Loan, or the receipt by the Seller of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Seller will immediately notify the Purchaser by a certification of a servicing officer of the Seller (a “Servicing Officer”), which certification shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which are required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 11.04 have been or will be so deposited, and shall request execution of any document necessary to satisfy the Loan and delivery to it of the portion of the Loan File held by the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s designee.  Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Purchaser, shall promptly release the related loan documents to the Seller and the Seller shall prepare and process any satisfaction or release.  No expense incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed of reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Custodial Account or the Purchaser.

In the event the Seller satisfies or releases a Mortgage without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or should it otherwise prejudice any right the Purchaser may have under the loan instruments, the Seller, upon written demand, shall remit to the Purchaser the then outstanding principal balance of the related Loan by deposit thereof in the Custodial Account.  The Seller shall maintain the fidelity bond insuring the Seller against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Loan not satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

From time to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of the Loan, including for this purpose collection under any Primary Insurance Policy, the Purchaser shall, upon request of the Seller and delivery to the Purchaser of a servicing receipt signed by a Servicing Officer, release the requested portion of the Loan File held by the Purchaser to the Seller.  Such servicing receipt shall obligate the Seller to return the related documents to the Purchaser when the need therefor by the Seller no longer exists, unless the Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Loan have been deposited in the Custodial Account or the Loan File or such document has been delivered to an attorney, or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Seller has delivered to the Purchaser a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying as to the name and address of the Person to which such Loan File or such document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery.  Upon receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating that such Loan was liquidated, the servicing receipt shall be released by the Purchaser to the Seller.

Section 11.21

Monthly Advances by the Seller.

(a)

Not later than the close of business on the Business Day preceding each Distribution Date, the Seller shall deposit in the Custodial Account an amount equal to all payments not previously advanced by the Seller, whether or not deferred pursuant to Section 11.01, of principal (due after the Cut-off Date) and interest not allocable to the period prior to the Cut-off Date, at the Loan Interest Rate net of the Servicing Fee, which were due on a Loan and delinquent at the close of business on the related Determination Date; provided, however, that the amount of any such deposit may be reduced by the amount then on deposit in the Custodial Account that are held for future disposition (“Amount Held for Future Distribution”). Any portion of the Amount Held for Future Distribution used to pay Monthly Advances shall be replaced by the Seller by deposit into the Custodial Account on any future Distribution Date to the extent that funds that are available in the Custodial Account for remittance to the Purchaser on such Distribution Date are less than the amount of payments required to be made to the Purchaser on such Distribution Date.

(b)

The obligation of the Seller to make such Monthly Advances is mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and, with respect to any Loan or REO Property, shall continue until a Final Recovery Determination in connection therewith; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Monthly Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Seller if such Monthly Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Monthly Advance.  The determination by the Seller that it has made a Nonrecoverable Monthly Advance or that any proposed Monthly Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Monthly Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Purchaser.

Section 11.22

Servicing Compensation.

As compensation for its services hereunder, the Seller shall, subject to Section 11.04(xi), be entitled to withdraw from the Custodial Account or to retain from interest payments on the Loans the amounts provided for as the Seller’s Servicing Fee.  Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, as provided in Section 11.19, and late payment charges or otherwise shall be retained by the Seller to the extent not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account.  The Seller shall be required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except as specifically provided for.

The Servicer shall also be entitled on each Distribution Date to the aggregate of any Prepayment Interest Excess collected in the related Due Period, which Prepayment Interest Excess the Servicer may withdraw from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05; provided, however, any such Prepayment Interest Excess to which the Servicer is entitled shall be reduced by the amount by which the aggregate Prepayment Interest Shortfalls for such Prepayment Period exceed the Servicer’s aggregate Servicing Fee received with respect to the related Due Period.

Section 11.23

Notification of Adjustments.

On each Adjustment Date, the Seller shall make interest rate adjustments for each Adjustable Rate Loan in compliance with the requirements of the related Note and Mortgage.  The Seller shall execute and deliver the notices required by each Mortgage and Note regarding interest rate adjustments and the Seller’s methods of implementing such interest rate adjustments.  The Seller also shall provide timely notification to the Purchaser of all applicable data and information regarding such interest rate adjustments.  Upon the discovery by the Seller to the Purchaser that the Seller has failed to adjust a Loan Interest Rate or a Monthly Payment pursuant to the terms of the related Note and Mortgage the Seller shall immediately deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds the amount of any interest loss caused thereby without reimbursement therefor.

Section 11.24

Statement as to Compliance.

(a)

The Seller will deliver to the Purchaser, to any “Master Servicer” and to any entity which is the depositor of the Loans pursuant to a Securitization Transaction or other securitization transaction (each, a “Depositor”) not later than March 31, 2003, March 15, 2004 and February 28 of each succeeding calendar year, an Officer’s Certificate stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Seller during the preceding year and of performance under this Agreement has been made under such officers’ supervision and (ii) to the best of such officer’s knowledge, based on such review, the Seller has fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default known to such officer and the nature and status thereof.  Copies of such statement may be provided by the Purchaser to any Person identified as a prospective purchaser of the Loans.

(b)

With respect to any Loans that are subject to a Securitization Transaction or other securitization transaction, by March 31, 2003, March 15, 2004 and February 28 of each succeeding year (or if not a Business Day, the immediately preceding Business Day), or at any other time upon thirty (30) days written request, an officer of the Seller shall execute and deliver an Officer’s Certificate to the Purchaser, any Master Servicer and any Depositor for the benefit of each such entity and such entity’s affiliates and the officers, directors and agents of any such entity and such entity’s affiliates, an Officer’s Certificate in the form attached hereto as Exhibit 11.

(c)

The Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer, the Depositor, the Purchaser (and if this Agreement has been assigned in whole or in part by the Purchaser, any and all Persons previously acting as “Purchaser” hereunder), and their respective officers, directors, agents and affiliates, and such affiliates’ officers, directors and agents (any such person, an “Indemnified Party”) from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach by the Seller or any of its officers, directors, agents or affiliates of its obligations under this Section 11.24 or Section 11.25, or the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of the Seller in connection therewith.  If the indemnification provided for herein is unavailable or insufficient to hold harmless any Indemnified Party, then the Seller agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Indemnified Party as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Indemnified Party in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Indemnified Party on the one hand and the Seller in the other in connection with a breach of the Seller’s obligations under this Section 11.24 or Section 11.25, or the Seller’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

It is acknowledged and agreed that each Master Servicer and Depositor shall be an express third party beneficiary of the provisions of this Section 11.24 and shall be entitled to independently enforce the provisions of this Section 11.24 with respect to any obligations owed to such entity as if it were a direct party to this Agreement.

Section 11.25

Independent Public Accountants’ Servicing Report.

Not later than March 31, 2003, March 15, 2004 and February 28 of each succeeding year, the Seller at its expense shall cause a firm of independent public accountants (which may also render other services to the Seller) which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants to furnish a statement to the Purchaser or its designee to the effect that such firm has examined certain documents and records relating to the servicing of the Loans under this Agreement or of loans under pooling and servicing agreements (including the Loans and this Agreement) substantially similar one to another (such statement to have attached thereto a schedule setting forth the pooling and servicing agreements covered thereby) and that, on the basis of such examination conducted substantially in compliance with the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers, such firm confirms that such servicing has been conducted in compliance with such pooling and servicing agreements except for such significant exceptions or errors in records that, in the opinion of such firm, the Uniform Single Attestation Program for Mortgage Bankers requires it to report.  Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Purchaser to any Person identified as a prospective purchaser of the Loans.

Section 11.26

Access to Certain Documentation.

The Seller shall provide to the Office of Thrift Supervision, the FDIC and any other federal or state banking or insurance regulatory authority that may exercise authority over the Purchaser access to the documentation regarding the Loans serviced by the Seller required by applicable laws and regulations.  Such access shall be afforded without charge, but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Seller.  In addition, access to the documentation will be provided to the Purchaser and any Person identified to the Seller by the Purchaser without charge upon reasonable request during normal business hours at the offices of the Seller.

Section 11.27

Reports and Returns to be Filed by the Seller.

The Seller shall file information reports with respect to the receipt of mortgage interest received in a trade or business, reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any Mortgaged Property and information returns relating to cancellation of indebtedness income with respect to any Mortgaged Property as required by Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code. Such reports shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by such Sections 6050H, 6050J and 6050P of the Code.

Section 11.28

Compliance with REMIC Provisions.

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

Section 11.29

[Reserved]

Section 11.30

Subservicing Agreements Between the Seller and Subservicers.

The Seller, as servicer, may arrange for the subservicing of any Loan by a Subservicer pursuant to a Subservicing Agreement; provided that such Subservicing arrangement and the terms of the related Subservicing Agreement must provide for the servicing of such Loans in a manner consistent with the servicing arrangements contemplated hereunder.  Each Subservicer shall be (i) authorized to transact business in the state or states where the related Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent required by applicable law to enable the Subservicer to perform its obligations hereunder and under the Subservicing Agreement and (ii) a Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae approved mortgage servicer.  Notwithstanding the provisions of any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Seller or a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through the Seller or otherwise, the Seller shall remain obligated and liable to the Purchaser and its successors and assigns for the servicing and administration of the Loans in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement without diminution of such obligation or liability by virtue of such Subservicing Agreements or arrangements or by virtue of indemnification from the Subservicer and to the same extent and under the same terms and conditions as if the Seller alone were servicing and administering the Loans.  Every Subservicing Agreement entered into by the Seller shall contain a provision giving the successor servicer the option to terminate such agreement in the event a successor servicer is appointed.  All actions of each Subservicer performed pursuant to the related Subservicing Agreement shall be performed as an agent of the Seller with the same force and effect as if performed directly by the Seller.

For purposes of this Agreement, the Seller shall be deemed to have received any collections, recoveries or payments with respect to the Loans that are received by a Subservicer regardless of whether such payments are remitted by the Subservicer to the Seller.

Section 11.31

Successor Subservicers.

Any Subservicing Agreement shall provide that the Seller shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing Agreement and to either itself directly service the related Loans or enter into a Subservicing Agreement with a successor Subservicer which qualifies under Section 11.29.  Any Subservicing Agreement shall include the provision that such agreement may be immediately terminated by any successor to the Seller without fee, in accordance with the terms of this Agreement, in the event that the Seller (or any successor to the Seller) shall, for any reason, no longer be the servicer of the related Loans (including termination due to an Event of Default).

Section 11.32

No Contractual Relationship Between Subservicer and Purchaser.

Any Subservicing Agreement and any other transactions or services relating to the Loans involving a Subservicer shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and the Seller alone and the Purchaser shall not be deemed a party thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to any Subservicer except as set forth in Section 11.32.

Section 11.33

Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreement by Successor Servicer.

In connection with the assumption of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities and of the authority, power and rights of the Seller hereunder by a successor servicer pursuant to Section 16 of the Agreement, it is understood and agreed that the Seller’s rights and obligations under any Subservicing Agreement then in force between the Seller and a Subservicer shall be assumed simultaneously by such successor servicer without act or deed on the part of such successor servicer; provided, however, that any successor servicer may terminate the Subservicer.

The Seller shall, upon the reasonable request of the Purchaser, but at its own expense, deliver to the assuming party documents and records relating to each Subservicing Agreement and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it and otherwise use its best efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Subservicing Agreements to the assuming party.

The Servicing Fee payable to any such successor servicer shall be payable from payments received on the Loans in the amount and in the manner set forth in this Agreement.
