With respect to any Mortgage Loan that contains a provision permitting imposition of a Prepayment Charge upon a Principal Prepayment prior to maturity: (i) prior to the Mortgage Loan’s origination, the Mortgagor agreed to such Prepayment Charge in exchange for a monetary benefit, including but not limited to a Mortgage Interest Rate or fee reduction, (ii) prior to the Mortgage Loan’s origination, the Mortgagor was offered the option of obtaining a Mortgage Loan that did not require payment of a Prepayment Charge and the originator of the Mortgage Loan had a written policy of offering borrowers, or requiring third-party brokers to offer borrowers, the option of obtaining a mortgage loan that did not require the payment of a Prepayment Charge, (iii) the Prepayment Charge is disclosed to the Mortgagor in the Mortgage Loan Documents pursuant to state and federal law applicable to the Mortgage Loan, (iv) for Mortgage Loans originated on or after October 1, 2002, the duration of the prepayment period shall not exceed three (3) years from the date of the Mortgage Note, unless the Mortgage Loan was modified to reduce the prepayment period to no more than three years from the date of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgagor was notified in writing of such reduction in the prepayment period, (v) no Mortgage Loan originated prior to October 1, 2002 has a Prepayment Charge longer than five years and (vi) notwithstanding any state or federal law to the contrary, the Seller shall not impose such Prepayment Charge in any instance when the Mortgage Loan is accelerated or paid off in connection with the workout of a delinquent mortgage or due to the Mortgagor’s default. Each Prepayment Charge is permissible, collectable and enforceable.

(lxiv)No Predatory Lending. No predatory, abusive or deceptive lending practices, including but not limited to, the extension of credit to a Mortgagor without regard for the Mortgagor’s ability to repay the Mortgage Loan and the extension of credit to a Mortgagor which has no tangible net benefit to the Mortgagor, were employed in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan. Each Mortgage Loan is in compliance with the anti-predatory lending eligibility for purchase requirements of Fannie Mae’s Selling Guide. No Mortgagor was encouraged or required to select a Mortgage Loan product offered by the Mortgage Loan’s originator which is a higher cost product designed for less creditworthy borrowers, unless at the time of the Mortgage Loan’s origination, such Mortgagor did not qualify taking into account credit history and debt to income ratios for a lower cost credit product then offered by the Mortgage Loan’s originator or any affiliate of the Mortgage Loan’s originator. If, at the time of the related loan application, the Mortgagor may have qualified for a lower cost credit product then offered by any mortgage lending affiliate of the Mortgage Loan’s originator, the Mortgage Loan’s originator referred the Mortgagor’s application to such affiliate for underwriting consideration;

(lxv)Underwriting Methodology. The methodology used in underwriting the extension of credit for each Mortgage Loan employs objective mathematical principles which relate the Mortgagor’s income, credit history, assets and liabilities to the proposed payment and such underwriting methodology did and does not rely on the extent of the Mortgagor’s equity in the collateral as the principal determining factor in approving such credit extension. Such underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of origination (application/approval) the Mortgagor had a reasonable ability to make timely payments on the Mortgage Loan.

(lxvi)Points and Fees Disclosed. All points and fees related to each Mortgage Loan were disclosed in writing to the related Borrower in accordance with applicable state and federal laws and regulations. No Borrower was charged “points and fees” (whether or not financed) in an amount greater than (a) $1,000 or (b) 5% of the principal amount of such Mortgage Loan, whichever is greater, such 5% limitation is calculated in accordance with Fannie Mae’s anti-predatory lending requirements as set forth in the Fannie Mae Guides. For purposes of this representation, “points and fees” (x) include origination, underwriting, broker and finder’s fees and charges that the lender imposed as a condition of making the Mortgage Loan, whether they are paid to the lender or a third party, and (y) exclude bona fide discount points, fees paid for actual services rendered in connection with the origination of the mortgage (such as attorneys’ fees, notaries fees and fees paid for property appraisals, credit reports, surveys, title examinations and extracts, flood and tax certifications, and home inspections); the cost of mortgage insurance or credit-risk price adjustments; the costs of title, hazard, and flood insurance policies; state and local transfer taxes or fees; escrow deposits for the future payment of taxes and insurance premiums; and other miscellaneous fees and charges that, in total, do not exceed 0.25 percent of the loan amount. All fees and charges (including finance charges), whether or not financed, assessed, collected or to be collected in connection with the origination and servicing of each Mortgage Loan were disclosed in writing to the related Mortgagor in accordance with applicable state and federal laws and regulations;

(lxvii)Full File Credit Reporting (Fannie Mae). The Seller will transmit full-file credit reporting data for each Mortgage Loan pursuant to Fannie Mae Guide Announcement 95-19 and for each Mortgage Loan, Seller agrees it shall report one of the following statuses each month as follows: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.), foreclosed, or charged-off;

(lxviii)No Credit Life Policies. No Mortgagor was required to purchase any single premium credit insurance policy (e.g. life, mortgage, disability, accident, unemployment, property or health insurance product) or debt cancellation agreement as a condition of obtaining the extension of credit. No Mortgagor obtained a prepaid single premium credit insurance policy (e.g. life, mortgage, disability, accident, unemployment, property or health insurance product) in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan, and no proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were used to purchase single-premium credit insurance policies or debt cancellation agreements as part of the origination of, or as a condition to closing, such Mortgage Loan;

(lxix)Full File Credit Reporting (Past Practice; Future Practice). The Seller and any predecessor servicer has fully furnished, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information (e.g., favorable and unfavorable) on its borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian and Trans Union Credit Information Company (three of the credit repositories) on a monthly basis; and the Seller will fully furnish, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information (e.g., favorable and unfavorable) on its borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian and Trans Credit Information Company (three of the credit repositories), on a monthly basis; and

(lxx)No Arbitration. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, neither the related Mortgage nor the related Mortgage Note requires the Mortgagor to submit to arbitration to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Mortgage Loan; No Mortgagor agreed to submit to arbitration to resolve any dispute arising out of or relating in any way to the Mortgage Loan.

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 Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser and shall inure to the benefit of the Purchaser, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement on any Mortgage Note or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination or lack of examination of any Mortgage File. Upon discovery by the Seller or the Purchaser of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties (notwithstanding any representation and warranty given to the best of Seller’s knowledge) which materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans or the interest of the Purchaser (or which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Purchaser in the related Mortgage Loan in the case of a representation and warranty relating to a particular Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan or the Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price within two (2) Business Days following the expiration of the related cure period. 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 Mortgage Loans shall, at the Purchaser’s option, be repurchased by the Seller at the Repurchase Price. With respect to any representations and warranties made by the Seller, in the event that it is discovered that the circumstances with respect to the Mortgage Loan are not accurately reflected in such representation and warranty notwithstanding the actual knowledge or lack of knowledge of Seller, then, notwithstanding that such representation and warranty is made “to the best of the Seller’s knowledge,” or in reliance on or based on other information, there shall be a breach of such representation and Seller shall cure such breach or repurchase the affected Mortgage Loan as provided in this Subsection 7.03. The Seller shall, at the request of the Purchaser and assuming that Seller has a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan, rather than repurchase the Mortgage Loan as provided above, remove such Mortgage Loan and substitute in its place a Qualified Substitute Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan, it shall repurchase the deficient Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, it is understood by the parties hereto that a breach of the representations and warranties made in Subsections 7.02 (xxxiii), (xl), (lvi), (lxv), (lxix), (lxiv) (lxx) and (lxxi) will be deemed to materially and adversely affect the value of the related Mortgage Loan or the interest of the Purchaser therein.

Any repurchase of a Mortgage 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.

At the time of repurchase of any deficient Mortgage Loan, the Purchaser and the Seller shall arrange for the reassignment of the repurchased Mortgage Loan to the Seller and the delivery to the Seller of any documents held by the Purchaser relating to the repurchased Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan Schedule shall be amended to reflect the withdrawal of the repurchased Mortgage Loan from this Agreement.

As to any Deleted Mortgage Loan for which the Seller substitutes a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Seller shall effect such substitution by delivering to the Purchaser for such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment of Mortgage and such other documents and agreements as are required by this Agreement, with the Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan or Loans in the month following the date of such substitution. Monthly Payments due with respect to Qualified Substitute Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall give written notice to the Purchaser that such substitution has taken place and shall amend the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and the substitution of the Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan. Upon such substitution, such Qualified Substitute Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan or Loans, as of the date of substitution, the covenants, representations and warranties set forth in Subsections 7.01 and 7.02.

For any month in which the Seller substitutes one or more Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Seller will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage 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 greater of 100% or the Purchase Price percentage specified in the related Confirmation 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.

In addition to such cure, repurchase and substitution obligation, 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, substitute for or repurchase a defective Mortgage Loan 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. The indemnification obligation of the Seller set forth herein shall survive the termination of this Agreement notwithstanding any applicable statute of limitations, which the Seller hereby expressly waives.

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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan as specified above, and (iii) demand upon the Seller by the Purchaser for compliance with the relevant provisions of this Agreement.

In addition to the foregoing, within 60 days of the earlier of discovery by Seller or receipt of notice by Seller of a breach of any representation of any Seller which materially and adversely affects the interests of any Prepayment Charge, the Seller shall pay the amount of the scheduled Prepayment Charge to the Purchaser.

Subsection 7.04.   Prepayment-in-Full Premium Recapture.

In the event that any Mortgage Loans prepay-in-full within three (3) months of the related Closing Date, the Seller shall remit to the Purchaser within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice from the Purchaser of a prepayment-in-full, the greater of (i) an amount equal to the product of (A) the excess of the related purchase price percentage over 100% and (B) the Stated Principal Balance of such prepaid Mortgage Loan as of the related Closing Date or (ii) the amount of any prepayment penalty fees paid with respect to such Mortgage Loan.

Subsection 7.05.   Early Payment Default.

In the event that any Mortgagor fails to make the first, second or third scheduled Monthly Payment due on a Mortgage Loan or due to Purchaser within the calendar month such payment is due, Seller shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price within five (5) Business Days following receipt of notice from the Purchaser of such payment default.

SECTION 8.Closing. The closing for each Mortgage Loan Package shall take place on the related Closing Date. At the Purchaser’s option, the closing shall be either: by telephone, confirmed by letter or wire as the parties shall agree, or conducted in person, at such place as the parties shall agree.

The closing for the Mortgage Loans to be purchased on each Closing Date shall be subject to each of the following conditions:

(a)   all of the representations and warranties of the Seller under this Agreement shall be true and correct as of the related Closing Date and no event shall have occurred which, with notice or the passage of time, would constitute a default under this Agreement;

(b)   the Initial Purchaser shall have received, or the Initial Purchaser’s attorneys shall have received in escrow, all Closing Documents as specified in Section 9, in such forms as are agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, duly executed by all signatories other than the Purchaser as required pursuant to the terms hereof;

(c)   the Seller shall have delivered and released to the Purchaser all documents required pursuant to this Agreement; and

(d)   all other terms and conditions of this Agreement shall have been complied with.

Subject to the foregoing conditions, the Initial Purchaser shall pay to the Seller on the related Closing Date the Purchase Price, plus accrued interest pursuant to Section 4, by wire transfer of immediately available funds to the account designated by the Seller.

SECTION 9.Closing Documents.

(a)On or before the Initial Closing Date, the Seller shall submit to the Initial Purchaser fully executed originals of the following documents:

1.   this Agreement, in four counterparts;

4.   if requested by the Initial Purchaser, an Opinion of Counsel to the Seller, in the form of Exhibit 2 hereto;

5.   a Security Release Certification, in the form of Exhibit 3 hereto executed by any Person, as requested by the Initial Purchaser, if any of the Mortgage Loans has at any time been subject to any security interest, pledge or hypothecation for the benefit of such Person;

6.   a certificate or other evidence of merger or change of name, signed or stamped by the applicable regulatory authority, if any of the Mortgage Loans were acquired by the Seller by merger or acquired or originated by the Seller while conducting business under a name other than its present name, if applicable; and

7.   an Assignment and Conveyance in the form of Exhibit 4 hereto.

(c)In addition, to the extent that the Underwriting Guidelines are modified, amended or supplemented at any time following the Initial Closing Date, the Seller shall notify the Purchaser of such change and provide the Purchaser a copy in both electronic and hard copy of such modification, amendment or supplement at the time the Seller presents a bid for a future trade.

SECTION 10.Costs. The Purchaser shall pay any commissions due its salesmen and the legal fees and expenses of its attorneys. All other costs and expenses incurred in connection with the transfer and delivery of the Mortgage Loans, including without limitation recording fees, fees for title policy endorsements and continuations, fees for recording Assignments of Mortgage and the Seller’s attorney’s fees, shall be paid by the Seller.

SECTION 11.Seller’s Servicing Obligations. The Seller, as independent contract servicer, shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans during the Preliminary Servicing Period in accordance with the terms and provisions set forth in the Servicing Addendum attached as Exhibit 8 which Servicing Addendums are incorporated herein by reference.

SECTION 12.Removal of Mortgage Loans from Inclusion under This Agreement Upon a Whole Loan Transfer or a Securitization Transaction on One or More Reconstitution Dates.

The Seller and the Initial Purchaser agree that with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans, the Initial Purchaser may effect either:

(1)   one or more Whole Loan Transfers; and/or

(2)   one or more Securitization Transactions.

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, at Purchaser’s sole expense, 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 Mortgage 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 agreements required to be executed by the Seller in connection with such Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, including without limitation any Reconstitution Agreements, the Assignment and Recognition Agreement substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit 9 attached hereto, and the Indemnification Agreement substantially in the form set forth as Exhibit 10 attached hereto, 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 the Mortgage Loans as of the date of the Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, modified to the extent necessary to accurately reflect the pool statistics of the Mortgage Loans as of the date of such Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction and supplemented by additional representations and warranties that are not unreasonable under the circumstances as of the date of such Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, to the extent that any events or circumstances, including changes in applicable law occurring subsequent to the related Closing Date(s), would render a related Mortgage Loan unmarketable to a material segment of the secondary mortgage or mortgage-backed securities market;

(4)   to deliver to the Purchaser for inclusion in any prospectus or other offering material such publicly available information regarding the Seller, its underwriting guidelines, its financial condition and its mortgage loan delinquency, foreclosure and loss experience and any additional information reasonably requested by the Purchaser, and to deliver to the Purchaser any similar non public, unaudited financial information, in which case the Purchaser shall bear the cost of having such information audited by certified public accountants if the Purchaser desires such an audit, or as is otherwise reasonably requested by the Purchaser and which the Seller is capable of providing without unreasonable effort or expense, and to indemnify the Purchaser and its affiliates for misstatements or omissions or any alleged misstatements or omissions contained (i) in such information and (ii) on the Mortgage Loan Schedule;

(5)   to deliver to the Purchaser and to any Person designated by the Purchaser, at the Purchaser’s expense, such statements and audit letters of reputable, certified public accountants pertaining to information provided by the Seller pursuant to clause 4 above as shall be reasonably requested by the Purchaser;

(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)   in connection with any securitization of any Mortgage Loans, 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 Mortgage Loans with other Mortgage Loans for resale or securitization;

(8)   in connection with any securitization of any Mortgage 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 mortgage 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 mortgage loans similar to the Mortgage Loans and such provisions with regard to servicing responsibilities, investor reporting, segregation and deposit of principal and interest payments, custody of the Mortgage Loans, and other covenants as are required by the Purchaser and one or more nationally recognized rating agencies for 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. At the option of the Purchaser, the facilities of the Depository Trust Company (“DTC”) may be used in connection with any class of security issued pursuant to any pooling agreement, subject only to the consent of the DTC. If the Purchaser deems it advisable at any time to pool the Mortgage Loans with other mortgage 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;

(9)   with respect to each Whole Loan Transfer and Securitization Transaction, the Seller shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts and Escrow Accounts with respect to the Mortgage Loans sold pursuant to such Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, which accounts shall be established and maintained in addition to, and separate and apart from, any other Custodial Account or Custodial Accounts and Escrow Account or Escrow Accounts established and maintained pursuant to this Agreement. The sale or transfer of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to a Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction shall be deemed to create a separate and distinct servicing agreement by the Seller with respect to such Mortgage Loan or Loans. In connection therewith, the obligation of the Seller in respect of compensating interest payments for Prepayment Interest Shortfalls with respect to the Mortgage Loans sold pursuant to a Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction, or sold pursuant to one Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction and separated by loan group (each, a “Loan Group”), shall accrue with respect to the related Mortgage Loans or Loan Group, and shall not be made on an aggregate basis with all of the Mortgage Loans purchased pursuant to or in connection with this Agreement or with the Mortgage Loans of a different Loan Group. In addition, any reimbursement of the Seller in respect of Monthly Advances, Servicing Advances and unreimbursed Servicing Fees shall be reimbursed first on a loan by loan basis and, if reimbursed out of general collections on the related Mortgage Loans, shall be reimbursed from collections on the Mortgage Loans sold pursuant to the related Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction or, with respect to Mortgage Loans sold pursuant to one Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction and separated by Loan Group, out of collections of the Mortgage Loans in the related Loan Group; and

(10)   in connection with any securitization of any Mortgage Loans, to transfer the servicing rights to the Purchaser or its designee as described in Section 16 upon the direction of the Purchaser.

All Mortgage 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.COMPLIANCE WITH REGULATION AB

Subsection 13.01.   Intent of the Parties; Reasonableness.

The Purchaser and the Seller acknowledge and agree that the purpose of Section 13 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 Company 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 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). 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 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 Mortgage Loans, or the servicing of the Mortgage 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 13.02.   Additional Representations and Warranties of the Seller.

(a)The Seller shall be deemed to represent to the Purchaser, to any master servicer and to any Depositor, as of the date on which information is first provided to the Purchaser, any master servicer or any Depositor under Subsection 13.03 that, except as disclosed in writing to the Purchaser, such master servicer or such Depositor prior to such date: (i) the Seller is not aware and has not received notice that any default, early amortization or other performance triggering event has occurred as to any other securitization due to any act or failure to act of the Seller; (ii) the Seller has not been terminated as servicer in a residential mortgage loan securitization, either due to a servicing default or to application of a servicing performance test or trigger; (iii) no material noncompliance with the applicable servicing criteria with respect to other securitizations of residential mortgage loans involving the Seller as servicer has been disclosed or reported by the Seller; (iv) no material changes to the Seller’s policies or procedures with respect to the servicing function it will perform under this Agreement and any Reconstitution Agreement for mortgage loans of a type similar to the Mortgage Loans have occurred during the three-year period immediately preceding the related Securitization Transaction; (v) there are no aspects of the Seller’s financial condition that could have a material adverse effect on the performance by the Seller of its servicing obligations under this Agreement or any Reconstitution Agreement; (vi) there are no material legal or governmental proceedings pending (or known to be contemplated) against the Seller, any Subservicer or any Third-Party Originator; and (vii) there are no affiliations, relationships or transactions relating to the Seller, any Subservicer or any Third-Party Originator with respect to any Securitization Transaction and any party thereto identified by the related Depositor of a type described in Item 1119 of Regulation AB.

(b)If so requested by the Purchaser, any master servicer or any Depositor on any date following the date on which information is first provided to the Purchaser, any master servicer or any Depositor under Subsection 13.03, the Seller shall, within five Business Days following such request, confirm in writing the accuracy of the representations and warranties set forth in paragraph (a) of this Subsection or, if any such representation and warranty is not accurate as of the date of such request, provide reasonably adequate disclosure of the pertinent facts, in writing, to the requesting party.

Subsection 13.03.   Information to Be Provided by the Seller.

In connection with any Securitization Transaction the Seller shall (i) within five Business Days following request by the Purchaser, any master servicer or any Depositor, provide to the Purchaser and such Depositor (or, as applicable, cause each Third-Party Originator and each Subservicer to provide), in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser and such Depositor, the information and materials specified in paragraphs (a), (b), (c) and (f) of this Subsection, and (ii) as promptly as practicable following notice to or discovery by the Seller, provide to the Purchaser and any Depositor (in writing and in form and substance reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser and such Depositor) the information specified in paragraph (d) of this Subsection.

(vii)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

(viii)the Seller ceases to meet the qualifications of either a Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac seller/servicer, the Seller is not eligible to act as servicer or master servicer for mortgage loans subject to residential mortgage backed securities transactions rated by any nationally recognized rating agency or is eligible to act as such only with enhanced credit support, or the Seller’s credit rating is reduced by any nationally recognized rating agency below its rating on the Initial Closing Date; or

(ix)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

(x)the Seller fails to duly perform, within the required time period, its obligations under Subsections 11.24 or 11.25 of the Servicing Addendum, which failure continues unremedied for a period of fifteen (15) 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 Mortgage Loans pursuant to a securitization of such Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 17.

All Servicing Transfer Costs shall be paid by the Seller upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs. In addition, the Seller shall obtain assignable life-of-loan Tax Service Contracts with respect to the Mortgage Loans for the Purchaser or its designee at no cost to the Purchaser or its designee; provided however, that if the Seller fails to purchase such Tax Service Contract, the Seller shall be required to reimburse the Purchaser for all costs and expenses incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the purchase of any such Tax Service Contract.

Subsection 15.02.   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 16.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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan and the remittance of all funds due hereunder unless terminated with respect to all or a portion of the Mortgage Loans on an earlier date at the option of the Purchaser pursuant to this Section 16 or pursuant to Section 15. The Purchaser may terminate the Seller as servicer pursuant to this Section 16 without cause if the Purchaser pays to the Seller a termination fee based on the fair market value of the related servicing rights as mutually agreed to between the Seller and the Purchaser. 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise, at the Purchaser’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 or Permitted Investments which shall at the time be credited by the Seller to the Custodial Account, REO Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

SECTION 17.Successor to the Seller. Prior to termination of Seller’s responsibilities and duties under this Agreement pursuant to Section 12, 15 or 16, 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 Mortgage 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 17 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 7.05, it being understood and agreed that the provisions of such Subsections 7.01, 7.02, 7.03, 7.04 and 7.05 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 12, 15 or 16 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.

The Seller shall timely deliver to the successor the funds in the Custodial Account, REO Account and the Escrow Account and the Mortgage 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 18.Financial Statements. The Seller understands that in connection with the Purchaser’s marketing of the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser may 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 mortgage 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 19.Mandatory Delivery: Grant of Security Interest. The sale and delivery of each Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan is unique and identifiable on the date hereof 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 Mortgage Loans) in the event of the Seller’s failure to deliver each of the related Mortgage Loans or one or more Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan and each document and instrument evidencing each such Mortgage Loan to secure the performance by the Seller of its obligation hereunder, and the Seller agrees that it holds such Mortgage Loans in custody for the Initial Purchaser subject to the Initial Purchaser’s (i) right to reject any Mortgage Loan under the terms of this Agreement and the related Confirmation, and (ii) obligation to pay the related Purchase Price for the Mortgage 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 20.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:

Any such demand, notice or communication hereunder shall be deemed to have been received on the date delivered to or received at the premises of the addressee (as evidenced, in the case of registered or certified mail, by the date noted on the return receipt).

SECTION 21.Severability Clause. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or which is held to be void or unenforceable shall be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof. Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or unenforceable or is held to be void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall be ineffective, as to such jurisdiction, to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction as to any Mortgage Loan shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto waive any provision of law which prohibits or renders void or 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 22.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 23.Governing Law. GOVERNING LAW; SUBMISSION TO JURISDICTION. THE AGREEMENT SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK WITHOUT REGARD TO ANY CONFLICTS OF LAW PROVISIONS (EXCEPT FOR SECTIONS 5-1401 AND 5

EACH PARTY HERETO HEREBY IRREVOCABLY AND UNCONDITIONALLY:

(A) SUBMITS FOR ITSELF AND ITS PROPERTY IN ANY LEGAL ACTION OR PROCEEDING RELATING TO THIS AGREEMENT, OR FOR RECOGNITION AND ENFORCEMENT OF ANY JUDGMENT IN RESPECT THEREOF, TO THE NON-EXCLUSIVE GENERAL JURISDICTION OF THE COURTS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, THE FEDERAL COURTS OF THE UNITED STATES OF AMERICA FOR THE SOUTHERN DISTRICT OF NEW YORK, AND APPELLATE COURTS FROM ANY THEREOF;

(B) CONSENTS THAT ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE BROUGHT IN SUCH COURTS AND, TO THE EXTENT PERMITTED BY LAW, WAIVES ANY OBJECTION THAT IT MAY NOW OR HEREAFTER HAVE TO THE VENUE OF ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING IN ANY SUCH COURT OR THAT SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING WAS BROUGHT IN AN INCONVENIENT COURT AND AGREES NOT TO PLEAD OR CLAIM THE SAME;

(C) AGREES THAT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY SUCH ACTION OR PROCEEDING MAY BE EFFECTED BY MAILING A COPY THEREOF BY REGISTERED OR CERTIFIED MAIL (OR ANY SUBSTANTIALLY SIMILAR FORM OF MAIL), POSTAGE PREPAID, TO ITS ADDRESS SET FORTH IN SECTION 20; AND

(D) AGREES THAT NOTHING HEREIN SHALL AFFECT THE RIGHT TO EFFECT SERVICE OF PROCESS IN ANY OTHER MANNER PERMITTED BY LAW OR SHALL LIMIT THE RIGHT TO SUE IN ANY OTHER JURISDICTION.

SECTION 24.Intention of the Parties. It is the intention of the parties that the Initial Purchaser is purchasing, and the Seller is selling, the Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loans. The Initial Purchaser shall have the right to review the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgage Loan Files to determine the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans which shall affect the federal income tax consequences of owning the Mortgage Loans and the Seller shall cooperate with all reasonable requests made by the Initial Purchaser in the course of such review. In the event, for any reason, any transaction contemplated herein is construed by any court or regulatory authority as a borrowing rather than as a sale, the Seller and the Purchaser intend that the Purchaser or its assignee, as the case may be, shall have a perfected first priority security interest in the Mortgage Loans, the Custodial Account and the proceeds of any and all of the foregoing (collectively, the “Collateral”), free and clear of adverse claims. In such case, the Seller shall be deemed to have hereby granted to the Purchaser or its assignee, as the case may be, a first priority security interest in and lien upon the Collateral, free and clear of adverse claims. In such event, the related Confirmation and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement, the Purchaser’s custodian shall be deemed to be an independent custodian for purposes of perfection of the security interest granted to the Purchaser or its assignee, as the case may be, and the Purchaser or its assignee, as the case may be, shall have all of the rights of a secured party under applicable law.

SECTION 25.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 Mortgage Loan is transferred whether pursuant to a sale or financing and to any Person to whom the servicing or master servicing of any Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan or Mortgage Loans and this Agreement, to the extent of the related Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan or Loans. In the event that this Agreement is assigned to any Person to whom the servicing or master servicing of any Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan is transferred and the Person to whom the servicing or master servicing of the Mortgage Loan has been transferred; provided that, the right to require a Mortgage 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; provided, however, the parties hereby acknowledge and agree that the Seller may pledge the servicing rights appurtenant to the Mortgage Loans and the Seller’s right to be reimbursed for Monthly Advances to a warehouse lender provided that, in the event the Seller defaults under any agreement with a warehouse lender, any successor servicer appointed by the warehouse lender shall meet the requirements set forth in this Agreement and such successor servicer shall be approved by the Purchaser. The Seller shall be responsible for any Servicing Transfer Costs incurred as a result of the foregoing.

SECTION 26.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 27.Exhibits. The exhibits to this Agreement are hereby incorporated and made a part hereof and are an integral part of this Agreement.

SECTION 28.General Interpretive Principles. For purposes of this Agreement, except as otherwise expressly provided or unless the context otherwise requires:

(c)references herein to “Articles,” “Sections,” “Subsections,” “Paragraphs,” and other Subdivisions without reference to a document are to designated Articles, Sections, Subsections, Paragraphs and other subdivisions of this Agreement;

(d)reference to a Subsection without further reference to a Section is a reference to such Subsection as contained in the same Section in which the reference appears, and this rule shall also apply to Paragraphs and other subdivisions;

(e)the words “herein,” “hereof,” “hereunder” and other words of similar import refer to this Agreement as a whole and not to any particular provision; and

(f)the term “include” or “including” shall mean without limitation by reason of enumeration.

SECTION 29.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, to personally, by telephone, mail, e-mail or otherwise, solicit the Mortgagor under any Mortgage Loan to refinance the Mortgage Loan, in whole or in part or provide information to any other entity to solicit the refinancing of any Mortgage Loan in whole or in part; 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 Mortgagors or from refinancing the Mortgage Loan of any Mortgagor who, without solicitation, contacts the Seller to request the refinancing of the related Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is understood and agreed that statement messaging, mass mailing based on commercially acquired mailing lists, newspaper, radio and television advertisements shall not constitute solicitation under this Section 29.

The parties agree that any such reproduction shall be admissible in evidence as the original itself in any judicial or administrative proceeding, whether or not the original is in existence and whether or not such reproduction was made by a party in the regular course of business, and that any enlargement, facsimile or further reproduction of such reproduction shall likewise be admissible in evidence.

SECTION 31.Further Agreements. The Seller and the Purchaser each agree to execute and deliver to the other such reasonable and appropriate additional documents, instruments or agreements as may be necessary or appropriate to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller shall cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with any Whole Loan Transfer or Securitization Transaction contemplated by the Initial Purchaser pursuant to Section 12 hereof. In such connection, the Seller shall (a) execute any agreement in accordance with the provisions of Section 12, and (b) provide to the Initial Purchaser or any prospective purchaser: (i) any and all information and appropriate verification of information, whether through letters of its auditors and counsel or otherwise, as the Initial Purchaser shall reasonably request; and (ii) such representations, warranties, covenants, opinions of counsel, letters from auditors, and certificates of public officials or officers of the Seller as are reasonably believed necessary by the Initial Purchaser in connection with such transactions. The requirement of the Seller pursuant to (ii) above shall terminate on the final Reconstitution Date. Prior to incurring any out-of-pocket expenses pursuant to this paragraph, the Seller shall notify the Initial Purchaser in writing of the estimated amount of such expense. The Initial Purchaser shall reimburse the Seller for any such expense following its receipt of appropriate details thereof.

SECTION 32.Entire Agreement.

This Agreement constitutes the entire agreement and understanding of the parties with respect to the matters and transactions contemplated by this Agreement and, except to the extent otherwise set forth in writing, supersedes any prior agreement and understandings with respect to those matters and transactions.

SECTION 33.Third Party Beneficiary. For purposes of this Agreement any master servicer shall be considered a third party beneficiary to this Agreement entitled to all the rights and benefits accruing to any master servicer herein as if it were a direct party to this Agreement.

[FORM OF OPINION OF COUNSEL TO THE SELLER]

______________________________

(Date)

Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp.

390 Greenwich Street

New York, New York 10013

Re: Master Mortgage Loan Purchase and Servicing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2006

Gentlemen:

I have acted as counsel to HomeBanc Mortgage Corporation, a _________________ (the “Seller”), in connection with the sale of certain mortgage loans by the Seller to Citigroup Global Markets Realty Corp. (the “Purchaser”) pursuant to (i) a Master Mortgage Loan Purchase and Servicing Agreement, dated as of June 1, 2006, between the Seller and the Purchaser (the “Purchase Agreement”), and (ii) 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 Incorporation and by-laws, as amended to date; and

D. Resolutions adopted by the Board of Directors of the Seller with 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 incorporated and is validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 and the Confirmation will result in a breach of any term or provision of the certificate of incorporation or by-laws 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 of Delaware or federal statute or regulation applicable to the Seller, or (iii) any order of any State of Delaware 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.

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 which would be likely to impair materially the ability of the Seller to perform under the terms of the Purchase Agreement.

7.The sale of each Mortgage 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 the State of Delaware. When endorsed, as provided in the Agreement, the Mortgage Notes will be duly endorsed under Delaware 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 19 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 Maryland, and I render no opinion herein as to matters involving the laws of any jurisdiction other than the State of Maryland and the Federal laws of the United States of America.

Very truly yours,

SERVICING ADDENDUM

Subsection 11.01Seller to Act as Servicer.

The Seller, as independent contract servicer, shall service and administer the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement, all applicable laws, rules and regulations and the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents, 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.

Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Seller may waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor if in the Seller’s reasonable and prudent determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence will cure a default by the mortgagor or prevent a reasonable foreseeable default, and is not materially adverse to the Purchaser; provided, however, that the Seller shall not permit any waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Property. 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.

Notwithstanding anything in this Agreement to the contrary, in the event of a Principal Prepayment in full or in part of a Mortgage Loan, the Seller may not waive any Prepayment Charge or portion thereof required by the terms of the related Mortgage Note unless (i) the Seller determines that such waiver would maximize recovery of Liquidation Proceeds for such Mortgage Loan, taking into account the value of such Prepayment Charge and the Mortgage Loan, and the waiver of such Prepayment Charge is standard and customary in servicing similar Mortgage Loans (including the waiver of a Prepayment Charge in connection with a refinancing of the Mortgage 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 Charge in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage 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 Charge 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 Charge (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.

In servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Seller shall employ procedures including collection procedures and exercise the same care that it customarily employs and exercises in servicing and administering mortgage loans for its own account giving due consideration to accepted mortgage servicing practices of prudent lending institutions and the Purchaser’s reliance on the Seller.

The Seller will furnish, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, in accordance with the Fair Credit Reporting Act and its implementing regulations, accurate and complete information on its borrower credit files to Equifax, Experian, and Trans Union Credit Information Company, on a monthly basis.

Subsection 11.02Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.

Continuously from the date hereof until the principal and interest on all Mortgage Loans are paid in full, the Seller shall proceed diligently to collect all payments due under each Mortgage 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 or LPMI Policy, follow such collection procedures as it follows with respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage 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 Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable.

Subsection 11.03Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

(a)The Seller shall use its best efforts, consistent with 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 Subsection 11.01. The Seller shall use its best efforts to realize upon defaulted Mortgage Loans in such a manner as will maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the 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 Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Seller shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such property in excess of $2,000 unless it shall determine in its discretion (i) that such restoration will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage 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 Subsection 11.05. In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan is not paid when the same becomes due and payable, or in the event the Mortgagor fails to perform any other covenant or obligation under the Mortgage Loan and such failure continues beyond any applicable grace period, the Seller shall take such action as it shall deem to be in the best interest of the Purchaser. In the event that any payment due under any Mortgage Loan remains delinquent for a period of 90 days or more, the Seller shall commence foreclosure proceedings, provided that prior to commencing foreclosure proceedings, the Seller shall notify the Purchaser in writing of the Seller’s intention to do so, and the Seller shall not commence foreclosure proceedings if the Purchaser objects to such action within ten (10) Business Days of receiving such notice. The Seller shall notify the Purchaser in writing of the commencement of foreclosure proceedings and shall provide monthly reports to the Purchaser or its designee regarding the status of such Mortgage Loans from the time such Mortgage Loan becomes 90 days delinquent through the liquidation of such Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall be responsible for all costs and expenses incurred by it in any such foreclosure proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in Subsection 11.05.

(b)Notwithstanding the foregoing provisions of this Subsection 11.03, with respect to any Mortgage 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 Subsection 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 Subsection 11.05(vii).

If the Seller determines, as described above, that it is in the best economic interest of the Purchaser to take such actions as are necessary to bring any such Mortgaged Property into compliance with applicable environmental laws, or to take such action with respect to the containment, clean-up or remediation of hazardous substances, hazardous materials, hazardous wastes, or petroleum-based materials affecting any such Mortgaged Property, then the Seller shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Purchaser. 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 Subsection 11.05(vii).

(c)Proceeds received in connection with any Final Recovery Determination, as well as any recovery resulting from a partial collection of Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds in respect of any Mortgage Loan, will be applied in the following order of priority: first, to reimburse the Seller for any related unreimbursed Servicing Advances pursuant to Subsection 11.05(iii); second, to accrued and unpaid interest on the Mortgage Loan, to the date of the Final Recovery Determination, or if not in connection with a Final Recovery Determination, to the Due Date prior to the Distribution Date on which such amounts are to be distributed; and third, as a recovery of principal of the Mortgage Loan. If the amount of the recovery so allocated to interest is less than the full amount of accrued and unpaid interest due on such Mortgage Loan, the amount of such recovery will be allocated by the Seller as follows: first, to unpaid Servicing Fees; and second, to the balance of the interest then due and owing. The portion of the recovery so allocated to unpaid Servicing Fees shall be reimbursed to the Seller pursuant to Subsection 11.05(iii).

Subsection 11.04Establishment of Custodial Accounts; Deposits in Custodial Accounts.

The Seller shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Mortgage 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 6.

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 prior to the Cut-off Date but allocable to a period subsequent thereto, other than in respect of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date:

(i)all payments on account of principal, including Principal Prepayments received during the related Prepayment Period, on the Mortgage Loans;

(ii)all payments on account of interest on the Mortgage Loans, including all Prepayment Charges received during the related Prepayment Period;

(iii)all Liquidation Proceeds;

(iv)all Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Subsections 11.10 and 11.11, other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the loan documents or applicable law;

(v)all Condemnation Proceeds affecting any Mortgaged Property which are not released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Seller’s normal servicing procedures, the loan documents or applicable law;

(vi)all Monthly Advances;

(vii)all proceeds of any Mortgage Loan repurchased in accordance with Subsections 7.03, 7.04 or 7.05 and all amounts required to be deposited by the Seller in connection with shortfalls in principal amount of Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loans pursuant to Subsection 7.03;

(viii)any amounts required to be deposited by the Seller pursuant to Subsection 11.11 in connection with the deductible clause in any blanket hazard insurance policy. Such deposit shall be made from the Seller’s own funds, without reimbursement therefor;

(ix)any amounts required to be deposited by the Seller in connection with any REO Property pursuant to Subsection 11.13;

(x)any amounts required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Subsections 11.19 or 11.20;

(xi)with respect to each Principal Prepayment in full or in part received during the related Prepayment Period, an amount (to be paid by the Seller out of its own funds without reimbursement therefor) which, when added to all amounts allocable to interest received in connection with such Principal Prepayment, equals one month’s interest on the amount of principal so prepaid at the Mortgage Interest Rate; provided, however, that in no event shall the aggregate of deposits made by the Seller pursuant to this clause (xi) exceed the aggregate amount of the Seller’s servicing compensation received in the calendar month in which such deposits are required; and

(iv)any amounts required to be deposited pursuant to Subsection 11.33 in connection with any losses realized on Permitted Investments with respect to funds held in the Custodial Account;

The foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall be exclusive, it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges and assumption fees, to the extent permitted by Subsection 11.01, need not be deposited by the Seller in the Custodial Account. Such Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Account. Any interest or earnings on funds deposited in the Custodial Account by the depository institution shall accrue to the benefit of the Seller and the Seller shall be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from the Custodial Account pursuant to Subsection 11.05(iii). The Seller shall give notice to the Purchaser of the location of the Custodial Account when established and prior to any change thereof.

If the balance on deposit in the Custodial Account exceeds $75,000 as of the commencement of business on any Business Day and the Custodial Account constitutes an Eligible Account solely pursuant to clause (ii) of the definition of Eligible Account, the Seller shall, on or before twelve o’clock noon Eastern time on such Business Day, withdraw from the Custodial Account any and all amounts payable to the Purchaser and remit such amounts to the Purchaser by wire transfer of immediately available funds.

(iii)to reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances, the Seller’s right to reimburse itself pursuant to this subclause (iii) with respect to any Mortgage Loan being limited to related Liquidation Proceeds, Condemnation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds and such other amounts as may be collected by the Seller from the Mortgagor or otherwise relating to the Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan pursuant to Subsection 7.03, 7.04 or 7.05, 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, 7.04 or 7.05 and all other amounts required to be paid to the Purchaser with respect to such Mortgage Loans;

(iv)to pay to itself pursuant to Subsection 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 Mortgage Loan;

The Seller shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Custodial Account pursuant to such subclauses (ii) - (vii) above. In addition, any amounts deposited into the REO Account by the Seller in respect of REO Properties shall be accounted for on a REO Property by REO Property basis. 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.

Subsection 11.06Establishment of Escrow Accounts; Deposits in Escrow Accounts.

The Seller shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant to each Mortgage 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 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 Subsection 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 Mortgagor and, to the extent required by law, the Seller shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that the Escrow Account is non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is insufficient for such purposes.

Subsection 11.07Permitted Withdrawals From Escrow Account.

Subsection 11.08Payment of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges; Maintenance of Primary Insurance Policies and LPMI Policies; Collections Thereunder.

(a)With respect to each Mortgage 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 and LPMI 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 Mortgagor 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 Mortgagor 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 Mortgagor’s faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments and shall make Servicing Advances to effect such payments and such amounts shall not be added to the unpaid principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. The obligation of the Seller to make such Servicing Advances is mandatory, notwithstanding any other provision of this Agreement, and, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or REO Property, shall continue until a Final Recovery Determination in connection therewith; provided that, notwithstanding anything herein to the contrary, no Servicing Advance shall be required to be made hereunder by the Seller if such Servicing Advance would, if made, constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance. The determination by the Seller that it has made a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance or that any proposed Servicing Advance, if made, would constitute a Nonrecoverable Servicing Advance, shall be evidenced by an Officers’ Certificate delivered to the Purchaser.

The Seller shall maintain in full force and effect, a Primary Insurance Policy, issued by a Qualified Insurer, with respect to each Mortgage Loan for which such coverage is required. Such coverage shall be maintained until the Loan-to-Value Ratio of the related Mortgage 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 related 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 or LPMI 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 Subsection 11.19, the Seller shall promptly notify the insurer under the related Primary Insurance Policy or LPMI 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 or LPMI 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 or LPMI 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 or LPMI Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to Subsection 11.04, any amounts collected by the Seller under any Primary Insurance Policy or LPMI Policy shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Subsection 11.05.

Subsection 11.09Transfer 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.

Subsection 11.10Maintenance of Hazard Insurance.

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 hazard 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 hazard insurance policy. The Seller shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage 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 and (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan plus, with respect to any Second Lien Mortgage Loan, the outstanding principal balance of the First Lien Mortgage Loan, in each case in an amount not less than such amount as is necessary to prevent the Mortgagor 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan plus, with respect to any Second Lien Mortgage Loan, the outstanding principal balance of the First Lien Mortgage Loan, at the time it became an REO Property plus accrued interest at the Mortgage Interest Rate and related Servicing Advances, 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 Subsection 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 Mortgagor in accordance with the Seller’s normal servicing procedures, shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Subsection 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 Mortgage Loan, notwithstanding that the terms of such Mortgage Loan so permit. It is understood and agreed that no earthquake or other additional insurance need be required by the Seller or the Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of the Mortgage 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 Mortgagor’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.

Subsection 11.11Maintenance 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:X insuring against hazard losses on all Mortgaged Properties securing the Mortgage Loans, then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required pursuant to Subsection 11.10 and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Subsection 11.10, the Seller shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in Subsection 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 Subsection 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 Mortgage 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. The Seller shall deliver 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.

Subsection 11.12Fidelity 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 and Freddie Mac on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any capacity with regard to the Mortgage Loans to handle funds, money, documents and papers relating to the Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness secured thereby. No provision of this Subsection 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. The Seller shall provide copies of the fidelity bond and insurance policy at each renewal of such policy.

Subsection 11.13Title, 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, 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, and in the same manner that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed. If a REMIC election is or is to be made with respect to the arrangement under which the Mortgage 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 monthly thereafter. The Seller shall make or cause to be made a written report of each such inspection. Such reports shall be retained in the Mortgage 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 one year 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 one year 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 Mortgage 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. Any REO Account shall be established with the Seller as a sub-account of the Custodial Account or, with the prior consent of the Purchaser, with a commercial bank, a mutual savings bank or a savings association as a sub-account of the Custodial Account.

The Seller shall deposit or cause to be deposited, on a daily basis in each REO 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 Subsection 11.10 hereof and the fees of any managing agent acting on behalf of the Seller. The Seller shall not be entitled to retain interest paid or other earnings, if any, on funds deposited in such REO Account. On or before each Determination Date, the Seller shall withdraw from each REO Account and deposit into the Custodial Account the net income from the REO Property on deposit in the REO Account. Any amounts deposited into the REO Account by the Seller in respect of REO Properties shall be accounted for on a REO Property by REO Property basis.

The Seller shall furnish to the Purchaser on each Distribution Date, an operating statement for each REO Property covering the operation of each 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 REO Account and shall be transferred to the Custodial Account on the Determination Date in the month following receipt thereof for distribution on the succeeding Distribution Date in accordance with Subsection 5.01.

Subsection 11.14Distributions.

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 Subsection 11.05; plus (ii) all Monthly Advances, if any, which the Seller is obligated to distribute pursuant to Subsection 11.21, minus (iii) any amounts attributable to Principal Prepayments received after the related Prepayment Period and (iv) any amounts attributable to Monthly Payments collected but due on a Due Date or Dates subsequent to the preceding Determination Date.

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 Mortgage 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 after 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 day 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.

Subsection 11.15Remittance Reports.

No later than the fifth Business Day of each month, the Seller shall furnish to the Purchaser or its designee a computer tape containing, and a hard copy of, monthly data in a form mutually acceptable to the Purchaser and the Seller. On the Business Day following each Determination Date, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser or its designee by telecopy (or by such other means as the Seller and the Purchaser may agree from time to time) a computer tape containing, and a hard copy of, the determination data with respect to the related Distribution Date, together with such other information with respect to the Mortgage Loans as the Purchaser may reasonably require to allocate distributions made pursuant to this Agreement and provide appropriate statements with respect to such distributions. On the same date, the Seller shall forward to the Purchaser by overnight mail a computer readable magnetic tape containing the information set forth in the Remittance Report with respect to the related Distribution Date.

Subsection 11.16Statements to the Purchaser.

Not later than fifteen days after each Distribution Date, the Seller shall forward to the Purchaser or its designee a statement prepared by the Seller, in the form of Fannie Mae’s Guaranteed Mortgage Pass-Through Program, setting forth the status of the Custodial Account as of the close of business on such 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 Subsection 11.04 and each category of withdrawal specified in Subsection 11.05.

In addition, not more than sixty 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, (i) as to the aggregate of remittances for the applicable portion of such year, an annual statement in accordance with the requirements of applicable federal income tax law, and (ii) a listing of the principal balances of the Mortgage Loans outstanding at the end of such calendar year.

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 any applicable law with respect to the Mortgage Loans and the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the Seller shall provide the Purchaser with such information concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary for the Purchaser to prepare its federal income tax return as any Purchaser may reasonably request from time to time.

Subsection 11.17Real Estate Owned Reports.

Together with the statement furnished pursuant to Subsection 11.13, with respect to any REO Property, the Seller shall furnish to the Purchaser or its designee a statement (in a form mutually agreeable to the Purchaser and the Seller) 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. Such statement shall be accompanied by such other information as the Purchaser or its designee shall reasonably request.

Subsection 11.18Liquidation 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 or its designee a liquidation report with respect to such Mortgaged Property in support of any action taken by the Seller in regard to such liquidation.

Subsection 11.19Assumption Agreements.

The Seller shall, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective conveyance by any Mortgagor of the Mortgaged Property (whether by absolute conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains or is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise its rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under 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 or LPMI 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 Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted by applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. Where an assumption is not allowed pursuant to this Subsection 11.19, the Seller, with the prior written consent of the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy or LPMI 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 Mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is substituted as Mortgagor and becomes liable under the related Mortgage 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, Mortgage Interest Rate, the amount of the Monthly Payment, and the final maturity date of such Mortgage 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 Mortgage File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File to the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part thereof.

Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraphs of this subsection 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 Mortgage 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 Subsection 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.

Subsection 11.20Satisfaction of Mortgages and Release of Mortgage Files.

Upon the payment in full of any Mortgage 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 Subsection 11.04 have been or will be so deposited, and shall request execution of any document necessary to satisfy the Mortgage Loan and delivery to it of the portion of the Mortgage File held by the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s designee. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Purchaser, shall promptly release the related mortgage 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 mortgage instruments, the Seller, upon written demand, shall remit to the Purchaser the then outstanding principal balance of the related Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan, including for this purpose collection under any Primary Insurance Policy or LPMI 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 Mortgage File held by the Purchaser to the Seller. Such servicing receipt shall obligate the Seller to return the related Mortgage documents to the Purchaser when the need therefor by the Seller no longer exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Custodial Account or the Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loan was liquidated, the servicing receipt shall be released by the Purchaser to the Seller.

Subsection 11.21Monthly 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 Subsection 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 Mortgage Interest Rate net of the Servicing Fee, which were due on a Mortgage Loan and delinquent at the close of business on the related Determination 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 Mortgage 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.

Subsection 11.22Servicing Compensation.

As compensation for its services hereunder, the Seller shall, subject to Subsection 11.04(xi), be entitled to withdraw from the Custodial Account or to retain from interest payments on the Mortgage Loans the amounts provided for as the Seller’s Servicing Fee. Additional servicing compensation in the form of assumption fees, as provided in Subsection 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 not be permitted to retain any portion of the Prepayment Charges collected on the Mortgage Loans, which Prepayment Charges shall be remitted to the Purchaser. 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.

Subsection 11.23Special Remittance Provisions for Principal Prepayments.

The Purchaser shall have the right to direct the Servicer to modify the remittance cycle applicable to Principal Payments received on any Mortgage Loan by remitting to the Purchaser on any Distribution Date all Principal Prepayments in full received by the Servicer prior to the related Determination Date, plus any interest collected on such Principal Prepayments, to the extent not previously remitted to the Purchaser. In connection with the foregoing, the Servicer shall have thirty (30) days to comply with such request and shall not be required to pay the amount set forth in Subsection 11.04 (xi) with respect to the related Mortgage Loans. In addition, the report by the Servicer shall reflect such revised remittance cycle.

Subsection 11.24Statement as to Compliance.

(a)The Seller will deliver to the Purchaser not later than March 1^st of each year, an Officers’ Certificate (each, an “Annual Statement of Compliance”) 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 officers’ 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 shall be provided by the Purchaser to any Person identified as a prospective purchaser of the Mortgage Loans.

(b)The Seller shall indemnify and hold harmless the Master Servicer and its officers, directors, agents and affiliates from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable legal fees and related costs, judgments and other costs and expenses arising out of or based upon a breach by the Seller or any of its officers, directors, agents or affiliates of its obligations under this Subsection 11.24 and Subsection 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 the Master Servicer, then the Seller agrees that it shall contribute to the amount paid or payable by the Master Servicer as a result of the losses, claims, damages or liabilities of the Master Servicer in such proportion as is appropriate to reflect the relative fault of the Master Servicer on the one hand and the Seller on the other in connection with a breach of the Seller’s obligations under this Subsection 11.24 or Subsection 11.25 or the Seller’s negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct in connection therewith.

Subsection 11.25Reserved.

Subsection 11.26Notification of Adjustments.

On each Adjustment Date, the Seller shall make interest rate adjustments for each Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan in compliance with the requirements of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note. The Seller shall execute and deliver the notices required by each Mortgage and Mortgage Note regarding interest rate adjustments. The Seller also shall provide timely notification to the Purchaser of all applicable data and information regarding such interest rate adjustments and the Seller’s methods of implementing such interest rate adjustments. Upon the discovery by the Seller or the Purchaser that the Seller has failed to adjust a Mortgage Interest Rate or a Monthly Payment pursuant to the terms of the related Mortgage 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.

Subsection 11.27Access 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 Mortgage 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.

Subsection 11.28Reports 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.

Subsection 11.29Compliance with REMIC Provisions.

If a REMIC election has been made with respect to the arrangement under which the Mortgage Loans and REO Property are held, the 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.

Subsection 11.30Application of Buydown Funds.

With respect to each Buydown Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall segregate and hold all Buydown Funds in the Custodial Account separate and apart from the Seller’s funds and general assets.

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

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

Subsection 11.31Superior Liens.

With respect to each Second Lien Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall, for the protection of the Purchaser’s interest, file (or cause to be filed) of record a request for notice of any action by a superior lienholder where permitted by local law and whenever applicable state law does not require that a junior lienholder be named as a party defendant in foreclosure proceedings in order to foreclose such junior lienholder’s equity of redemption. The Seller shall also notify any superior lienholder in writing of the existence of the Mortgage Loan and request notification of any action (as described below) to be taken against the Mortgagor or the Mortgaged Property by the superior lienholder.

If the Seller is notified that any superior lienholder has accelerated or intends to accelerate the obligations secured by the superior lien, or has declared or intends to declare a default under the superior mortgage or the promissory note secured thereby, or has filed or intends to file an election to have the Mortgaged Property sold or foreclosed, the Seller shall take whatever actions are necessary to protect the interests of the Purchaser, and/or to preserve the security of the related Mortgage Loan, subject to any requirements applicable to real estate mortgage investment conduits pursuant to the Code. The Seller shall make a Servicing Advance of the funds necessary to cure the default or reinstate the superior lien if the Seller determines that such Servicing Advance is in the best interests of the Purchaser. The Seller shall not make such a Servicing Advance except to the extent that it determines in its reasonable good faith judgment that such advance will be recoverable from Liquidation Proceeds on the related Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall thereafter take such action as is necessary to recover the amount so advanced.

Subsection 11.32Officer’s Certificates.

Not later than the end of each calendar year, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser or its designee an Officer’s Certificate stating that the Seller is an approved seller/servicer for Fannie Mae and Freddie Mac in good standing and is a HUD approved mortgagee pursuant to Section 203 of the National Housing Act, and that no event has occurred, including but not limited to a change in insurance coverage, which would make the Seller unable to comply with Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or HUD eligibility requirements or which would require notification to Fannie Mae, Freddie Mac or HUD. In addition, the Seller shall deliver to the Purchaser or its designee a notice in the event that the Seller fails to meet such eligibility requirements.

Subsection 11.33Investment of Funds in the Collection Account.

The Seller may direct any depository institution maintaining the Custodial Account to invest the funds on deposit in such account, (each such account, for the purposes of this Subsection 11.33, an “Investment Account”). All investments pursuant to this Subsection 11.33 shall be in one or more Permitted Investments bearing interest or sold at a discount, and maturing, unless payable on demand no later than the Business Day immediately preceding the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn from such account pursuant to this Agreement. All such Permitted Investments shall be held to maturity, unless payable on demand. All income and gain realized from the investment of funds deposited in the Custodial Account shall be for the benefit of the Servicer and shall be subject to its withdrawal in accordance with Subsection 11.04. The Servicer shall deposit in the Custodial Account the amount of any loss incurred in respect of any such Permitted Investment immediately upon realization of such loss.

Subsection 11.34Subservicing Agreements Between the Seller and Subservicers.

The Seller, as servicer, may arrange for the subservicing of any Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage 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 Mortgage Loans that are received by a Subservicer regardless of whether such payments are remitted by the Subservicer to the Seller.

Subsection 11.35Successor 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 Mortgage Loans or enter into a Subservicing Agreement with a successor Subservicer which qualifies under Subsection 11.34. 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 Mortgage Loans (including termination due to an Event of Default).

Subsection 11.36No Contractual Relationship Between Subservicer and Purchaser.

Any Subservicing Agreement and any other transactions or services relating to the Mortgage 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 Subsection 11.34.

Subsection 11.37Assumption 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 this 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.

Reference is also made to the information provided by ____________ contained in the Prospectus Supplement, including any supplement or amendment thereto, under the caption, “The Originators—______________” and “__________” (the “Company Information”).

1.Pursuant to Section 12 of the Purchase Agreement:

(a)Company (also referred to herein as the “Indemnifying Party”) agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Underwriter, the Depositor and each of their directors and officers and affiliates and each person, if any, who controls the Underwriter or the Depositor within the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act or Section 20 of the Exchange Act (the “Indemnified Party”), against any and all actual losses, claims, expenses, damages or liabilities to which the Depositor or any such director, officer or controlling person may become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (x) any untrue statement of any material fact or alleged untrue statement of material fact contained in the Company Information or omission or alleged omission to state therein, a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary to make the statements made therein, in light of the circumstances under which such statements were made, not misleading (in each case, regardless of whether a final judgment has been entered by a finder of fact) or (y) any material misstatement or omission or alleged material misstatement or omission contained in the Prospectus Supplement regarding information or statistics therein regarding the Mortgage Loans based on information correctly derived by the Depositor or its affiliates and included in the Prospectus Supplement from information actually provided to the Depositor or its affiliates by Company; and will reimburse any such reasonable legal or other expenses reasonably incurred by the Depositor or any such director, officer or controlling person in connection with investigating or defending any such loss, claim, damage, liability or action. This indemnity agreement will be in addition to any liability which Company may otherwise have.

(b)Promptly after receipt by the Indemnified Party under this Section 1 of notice of the commencement of any action described therein, the Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against the Indemnifying Party under this Section 1, notify the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, but the omission so to notify the Indemnifying Party will not relieve the Indemnifying Party from any liability that it may have to the Indemnified Party (a) under this Agreement except to the extent that the omission to notify the Indemnifying Party with respect to this Agreement materially adversely affects the Indemnifying Party’s ability to perform under this Agreement or (b) otherwise than under this Agreement. In case any such action is brought against the Indemnified Party, and it notifies the Indemnifying Party of the commencement thereof, the Indemnifying Party will be entitled to participate therein, and, to the extent that it may wish to do so, jointly with any other Indemnifying Party similarly notified, to assume the defense thereof, with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party (who shall not, except with the consent of the Indemnified Party, be counsel to the Indemnifying Party), and, after notice from the Indemnifying Party to the Indemnified Party under this Section 1, the Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the Indemnified Party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable costs of investigation.

The Indemnified Party shall have the right to employ separate counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of the Indemnified Party unless: (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by the Indemnifying Party in writing; (ii) the Indemnified Party shall have been advised by such counsel that there may be one or more legal defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those available to the Indemnifying Party and in the reasonable judgment of such counsel it is advisable for the Indemnified Party to employ separate counsel; (iii) a conflict or potential conflict exists (based on advice of counsel to the Indemnified Party) between the Indemnified Party and the Indemnifying Party (in which case the Indemnifying Party will not have the right to direct the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party) or (iv) the Indemnifying Party has failed to assume the defense of such action and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the Indemnified Party, in which case, if the Indemnified Party notifies the Indemnifying Party in writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the Indemnifying Party, the Indemnifying Party shall not have the right to assume the defense of such action on behalf of the Indemnified Party, it being understood, however, the Indemnifying Party shall not, in connection with any one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one separate firm of attorneys (in addition to local counsel) at any time for the Indemnified Party, which firm shall be designated in writing by the Depositor or any of the Depositor’s directors, officers or controlling persons.

The Indemnified Party, as a condition of the indemnity agreements contained in Section 1(a) and Section 1(b), shall use its best efforts to cooperate with the Indemnifying Party in the defense of any such action or claim. The Indemnifying Party shall not be liable for any settlement of any such action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the Indemnifying Party agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Indemnified Party from and against any loss or liability (to the extent set forth in Section 1(a) or Section 1(b) as applicable) by reason of such settlement or judgment.

2.All demands, notices and communications hereunder shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally delivered to or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid, or transmitted by facsimile and confirmed by similar mailed writing as follows: (i) if to Company: ________________, [__], Attention: [__], and (ii) if to the Depositor: ____________________________________, Facsimile (___) ___-____, Attention: Legal. Any party hereto may alter the address to which communications or copies are to be sent by giving notice of such change of address in conformity with the provisions of this Section for the giving of notice.

3.This Agreement may be executed in any number of counterparts, each of which when so executed shall be deemed to be an original, but all of such counterparts shall together constitute one instrument.

4.This Agreement shall be construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Depositor and Company have caused their names to be signed by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the date first above written.
