(i) The Servicer is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State of Maryland and has the corporate power to own its assets and to transact the business in which it is currently engaged. The Servicer is duly qualified to do business and is in good standing in each jurisdiction in which the character of the business transacted by it or properties owned or leased by it requires such qualification and in which the failure to so qualify would have a material adverse effect on the business, properties, assets, or condition (financial or other) of the Servicer or the validity or enforceability of the Mortgage Loans;

(ii) The Servicer has the power and authority to make, execute, deliver and perform this Servicing Agreement and all of the transactions contemplated under this Servicing Agreement, and has taken all necessary corporate action to authorize the execution, delivery and performance of this Servicing Agreement. When executed and delivered, this Servicing Agreement will constitute the legal, valid and binding obligation of the Servicer enforceable in accordance with its terms, except as enforcement of such terms may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency or similar laws affecting the enforcement of creditors’ rights generally and by the availability of equitable remedies;

(iii) The Servicer is not required to obtain the consent of any other Person or any consent, license, approval or authorization from, or registration or declaration with, any governmental authority, bureau or agency in connection with the execution, delivery, performance, validity or enforceability of this Servicing Agreement, except for such consent, license, approval or authorization, or registration or declaration, as shall have been obtained or filed, as the case may be;

(iv) The execution and delivery of this Servicing Agreement and the performance of the transactions contemplated hereby by the Servicer will not violate any provision of any existing law or regulation or any order or decree of any court applicable to the Servicer or any provision of the charter or bylaws of the Servicer, or constitute a material breach of any mortgage, indenture, contract or other agreement to which the Servicer is a party or by which the Servicer may be bound;

(v) No litigation or administrative proceeding of or before any court, tribunal or governmental body is currently pending (other than litigation with respect to which pleadings or documents have been filed with a court, but not served on the Servicer), or to the knowledge of the Servicer threatened, against the Servicer or any of its properties or with respect to this Servicing Agreement or the Securities or the Trust Certificates which, to the knowledge of the Servicer, has a reasonable likelihood of resulting in a material adverse effect on the transactions contemplated by this Servicing Agreement; and

(vi) The Servicer is a member of MERS in good standing, and will comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS.

The foregoing representations and warranties shall survive any termination of the Servicer hereunder.

Section 2.02 Existence.

The Issuing Entity will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a statutory trust under the laws of the State of Delaware (unless it becomes, or any successor Issuing Entity hereunder is or becomes, organized under the laws of any other state or of the United States of America, in which case the Issuing Entity will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises under the laws of such other jurisdiction) and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or shall be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Servicing Agreement.

Section 2.03 Enforcement of Representations and Warranties.

The Indenture Trustee, as pledgee of the Mortgage Loans, shall enforce the representations and warranties and related obligations for breaches thereof of the Sponsor pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement. Upon the discovery by the Sponsor, the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee or the Company of a breach of any of the representations and warranties made in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement in respect of any Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Securityholders or the Trust Certificateholders, the party discovering the same shall give prompt written notice to the other parties. The Indenture Trustee shall promptly notify the Sponsor and request that, pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement the Sponsor either (i) cure such breach in all material respects or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan in accordance with the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement; provided that the Sponsor shall, subject to the conditions set forth in the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, have the option to substitute an Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan or Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans for such Mortgage Loan upon delivery of an Officer’s Certificate to the Indenture Trustee stating that such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan satisfies the definition of Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan set forth in Appendix A to the Indenture and that the Substitution Adjustment Amount, if any, has been deposited into the Protected Account. Monthly Payments due with respect to Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Estate and will be retained by the Servicer and remitted by the Servicer to the Sponsor on the next succeeding Payment Date. For the month of substitution, distributions to the Payment Account pursuant to this Agreement will include the Monthly Payment due on a Deleted Mortgage Loan for such month and thereafter the Sponsor shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. The Servicer shall amend or cause to be amended the Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Mortgage Loan and the substitution of the related Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan and the Servicer shall promptly deliver the amended Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Master Servicer, Owner Trustee, Securities Administrator and Indenture Trustee.

In connection with the substitution of one or more Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Servicer will determine the amount (such amount, a “Substitution Adjustment Amount”), if any, by which the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate principal balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans (after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments due on such Deleted Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution). The Sponsor shall pay the Substitution Adjustment Amount to the Servicer and the Servicer shall deposit such Substitution Adjustment Amount into the Protected Account upon receipt.

In connection with any repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 2.03, the Sponsor shall furnish to the Securities Administrator an officer’s certificate, signed by a duly authorized officer of the Sponsor to the effect that such repurchase or substitution has been made in accordance with the terms and conditions of this Servicing Agreement and that all conditions precedent to such repurchase or substitution have been satisfied, including the delivery to the Securities Administrator of the Purchase Price or Substitution Adjustment Amount, as applicable, for deposit into the Payment Account, together with copies of any Opinion of Counsel required to be delivered pursuant to this Agreement and the related Request for Release. Upon receipt of such documentation, the Securities Administrator shall approve such repurchase or substitution, as applicable, which approval shall be based solely on the Securities Administrator’s receipt of such documentation and deposits.

ARTICLE III

ADMINISTRATION AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS

Section 3.01 Servicer to Act as Servicer.

(a) The Servicer shall service, or take such actions as are necessary to ensure, the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and any REO Property in accordance with this Servicing Agreement and its normal servicing practices, which generally shall conform to the standards of an institution prudently servicing mortgage loans for its own account and shall have full authority to do anything it reasonably deems appropriate or desirable in connection with such servicing and administration. The Servicer may perform its responsibilities relating to servicing through other agents or independent contractors, but shall not thereby be released from any of its responsibilities for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans. The authority of the Servicer, in its capacity as Servicer, and any Subservicer acting on its behalf, shall include, without limitation, the power on behalf of the Issuing Entity and the Indenture Trustee to (i) consult with and advise any Subservicer regarding administration of a related Mortgage Loan, (ii) approve any recommendation by a Subservicer to foreclose on a related Mortgage Loan, (iii) supervise the filing and collection of insurance claims and take or cause to be taken such actions on behalf of the insured Person thereunder as shall be reasonably necessary to prevent the denial of coverage thereunder, and (iv) effectuate foreclosure or other conversion of the ownership of the Mortgaged Property securing a related Mortgage Loan, including the employment of attorneys, the institution of legal proceedings, the collection of deficiency judgments, the acceptance of compromise proposals, the filing of any claims under any Primary Insurance Policy or Lender Paid Mortgage Insurance Policy, and any other matter pertaining to a delinquent Mortgage Loan. The authority of the Servicer shall include, in addition, the power to (i) execute and deliver customary consents or waivers and other instruments and documents, (ii) consent to transfer of any related Mortgaged Property and assumptions of the related Mortgage Securities (in the manner provided in this Servicing Agreement) and (iii) collect any Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer and any Subservicer acting on its behalf may, and is hereby authorized, and empowered by the Indenture Trustee, to execute and deliver any instruments of satisfaction, cancellation, partial or full release, discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the related Mortgage Loans, the insurance policies and the accounts related thereto, and the Mortgaged Properties. The Servicer may exercise this power in its own name or in the name of a Subservicer.

In accordance with the standards of the preceding paragraph, the Servicer shall advance or cause to be advanced funds as necessary for the purpose of effecting the payment of taxes and assessments on the Mortgaged Properties, which advances shall be reimbursable in the first instance from related collections from the Mortgagors pursuant to Section 3.08, and further as provided in Section 3.07; provided that the Servicer shall not be obligated to make such advance if, in its good faith judgment, the Servicer determines that such advance will be a Nonrecoverable Advance.

The relationship of the Servicer (and of any successor to the Servicer under this Agreement) to the Master Servicer and the other parties hereto under this Agreement is intended by the parties to be that of an independent contractor and not that of a joint venturer, partner or agent; provided, however, that the Servicer is authorized and empowered by the Indenture Trustee, in its own name or in the name of any Subservicer, when the Servicer or such Subservicer, as the case may be, believes it is appropriate in its best judgment to register any Mortgage Loan on the MERS7 System, or cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS7 System, to execute and deliver, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, any and all instruments of assignment and other comparable instruments with respect to such assignment or re-recording of a Mortgage in the name of MERS, solely as nominee for the Indenture Trustee and its successors and assigns. Any expenses incurred in connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence shall be borne by the Servicer in accordance with Section 3.15, with no right of reimbursement; provided, that if, as a result of MERS discontinuing or becoming unable to continue operations in connection with the MERS System, it becomes necessary to remove any Mortgage Loan from registration on the MERS System and to arrange for the assignment of the related Mortgages to the Indenture Trustee, then any related expenses shall be reimbursable to the Servicer from the Trust Estate.

(b) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, consistent with the terms of this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer may not consent to the placing of a lien senior to that of the Mortgage on the related Mortgaged Property.

(c) The Servicer or the related Subservicer, as the case may be, shall be entitled to (A) execute assumption agreements, substitution agreements, and instruments of satisfaction or cancellation or of full release or discharge, or any other document contemplated by this Servicing Agreement and other comparable instruments with respect to the Mortgage Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties subject to the Mortgages (and the Indenture Trustee shall promptly execute or cause to be executed any such documents on request of the Servicer and prepared by it) and (B) approve the granting of an easement thereon in favor of another Person, any alteration or demolition of the related Mortgaged Property or other similar matters, if it has determined, exercising its good faith business judgment in the same manner as it would if it were the owner of the related Mortgage Loan, that the security for, and the timely and full collectability of, such Mortgage Loan would not be adversely affected thereby. An assumption pursuant to this Section 3.01 is permitted solely if the creditworthiness of the prospective purchaser of a Mortgaged Property meets the same or better underwriting guidelines as those which were applied to the original borrower and the security for such Mortgage Loan is not impaired by the assumption. Any fee collected by the Servicer or the related Subservicer for processing such request will be retained by the Servicer or such Subservicer as additional servicing compensation.

(d) Notwithstanding the provisions of Subsection 3.01(a), the Servicer shall not take any action inconsistent with the interests of the Indenture Trustee or with the rights and interests of the Master Servicer under this Servicing Agreement.

(e) The Indenture Trustee shall execute and return to the Servicer any limited powers of attorney and other documents in form as provided to the Indenture Trustee necessary or appropriate to enable the Servicer to service and administer the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property.

(f) Notwithstanding The Servicer may agree to a modification of any Mortgage Loan (a Mortgage Loan as so modified, a“Modified Mortgage Loan”) so long as (i) the Servicer determines that such modification is in the best interest of the Securityholders; (ii) the Mortgagor is in default with respect to the Mortgage Loan or such default is, in the judgment of the Servicer, reasonably foreseeable, (iii) the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan is not extended beyond the Final Scheduled Payment Date of the latest maturing Security; (iv) any amounts added to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan, or capitalized amounts added to such Mortgage Loan, are fully amortized over the remaining term of such Mortgage Loan; (v) any capitalized amounts added to the Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan are implemented in accordance with the Servicer’s standard servicing procedures, (vi) any Advances and other amounts are added to the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan only once during the term of such Mortgage Loan and (vii) no modification can be made that shall reduce the Net Mortgage Rate of such Mortgage Loan below one half of the Net Mortgage Rate in effect on the Cut-off Date but not less than the Servicing Fee Rate. In addition, the aggregate current Stated Principal Balance of all Modified Mortgage Loans can be no more than 5% of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-off Date; provided, however, that this 5% limit may be increased with the consent of the Rating Agencies. The Servicer shall promptly deliver to the Indenture Trustee a certification of a Servicing Officer to the effect that all requirements of this paragraph have been satisfied with respect to the Modified Mortgage Loan. The Servicer covenants and agrees to indemnify the Trust against any liability for any “prohibited transaction” taxes and any related interest, additions, and penalties imposed on the Trust established hereunder as a result of any modification of a Mortgage Loan effected pursuant to this Section 3.01(f) or any holding of a Modified Mortgage Loan by the Trust (but such obligation shall not prevent the Servicer or any other appropriate Person from in good faith contesting any such tax in appropriate proceedings and shall not prevent the Servicer from withholding payment of such tax, if permitted by law, pending the outcome of such proceedings). The Servicer shall have no right of reimbursement for any amount paid pursuant to the foregoing indemnification, except to the extent that the amount of any tax, interest, and penalties, together with interest thereon, is refunded to the Trust or the Servicer. If the Servicer agrees to a modification of any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.01(f), and if such Mortgage Loan carries a Prepayment Charge provision which is being eliminated, reduced or modified as part of the modification, the Servicer shall deliver to the Securities Administrator the amount of the Prepayment Charge, if any, that would have been due had such Mortgage Loan been prepaid at the time of such modification, for deposit into the Payment Account (not later than 1:00 p.m. Eastern time on the Business Day prior to the Payment Date immediately succeeding the date of such modification) for distribution in accordance with the terms of the Indenture.

Section 3.02 Subservicing Agreements Between Servicer and Subservicers.

(a) The Servicer may enter into Subservicing Agreements with Subservicers for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans and for the performance of any and all other activities of the Servicer hereunder. Any 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 and the Servicer shall cause any Subservicer to comply with the provisions of this Agreement (including, without limitation, to provide the information required to be delivered under Sections 4.06, 4.07 and 4.08 hereof), to the same extent as if such Subservicer were the related Servicer. Each Subservicer shall be either (i) an institution the accounts of which are insured by the FDIC or (ii) another entity that engages in the business of originating or servicing mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans, and in either case shall be authorized to transact business in the state or states in which 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 related Subservicing Agreement, and in either case shall be a Freddie Mac or Fannie Mae approved mortgage servicer. Any Subservicing Agreement entered into by the Servicer shall include the provision that such Agreement may be terminated with or without cause and without the payment of any termination fee by any successor servicer (including, without limitation, the Master Servicer as successor servicer) under this Servicing Agreement. In addition, each Subservicing Agreement shall provide for servicing of the Mortgage Loans consistent with the terms of this Servicing Agreement. The Servicer and the Subservicers may enter into Subservicing Agreements and make amendments to the Subservicing Agreements or enter into different forms of Subservicing Agreements providing for, among other things, the delegation by the Servicer to a Subservicer of additional duties regarding the administration of the Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that any such amendments or different forms shall be consistent with and not violate the provisions of this Servicing Agreement, and that no such amendment or different form shall be made or entered into which could be reasonably expected to be materially adverse to the interests of the Indenture Trustee and the Securityholders, without the consent of the Master Servicer.

(b) As part of its servicing activities hereunder, the Servicer, for the benefit of the Securityholders, shall enforce the obligations of each Subservicer under the related Subservicing Agreement. Such enforcement, including, without limitation, the legal prosecution of claims, termination of Subservicing Agreements and the pursuit of other appropriate remedies, shall be in such form and carried out to such an extent and at such time as the Servicer, in its good faith business judgment, would require were it the owner of the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall pay the costs of such enforcement at its own expense, but shall be reimbursed therefor only (i) from a general recovery resulting from such enforcement only to the extent, if any, that such recovery exceeds all amounts due in respect of the related Mortgage Loan or (ii) from a specific recovery of costs, expenses or attorneys’ fees against the party against whom such enforcement is directed.

(c) The Servicer shall promptly, upon request, provide to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Sponsor a written description (in form and substance satisfactory to the Master Servicer, the Trustee and the Sponsor) of the role and function of each Subservicer utilized by the Servicer, specifying (i) the identity of each such Subservicer, (ii) which (if any) of such Subservicer are “participating in the servicing function” within the meaning of Item 1122 of Regulation AB, and (iii) which elements of the Servicing Criteria will be addressed in assessments of compliance provided by each Subservicer identified pursuant to clause (ii) of this subsection. The Servicer shall be responsible for obtaining from each Subservicer and delivering to the Master Servicer any annual statement of compliance, assessment of compliance, attestation report and Sarbanes-Oxley related certification as and when required to be delivered. The Servicer shall pay all fees of each of its Subservicers from its own funds.

Section 3.03 Successor Subservicers.

The Servicer shall be entitled to terminate any Subservicing Agreement that may exist in accordance with the terms and conditions of such Subservicing Agreement subject to the terms of Section 3.02(a) of this Servicing Agreement; provided, however, that upon termination, the Servicer shall either act as Servicer of the related Mortgage Loan or enter into an appropriate contract with a successor Subservicer and in conformance with the terms of Section 3.02(a) of this Servicing Agreement pursuant to which such successor Subservicer will be bound by all relevant terms of the related Subservicing Agreement and this Servicing Agreement pertaining to the servicing of such Mortgage Loan.

Section 3.04 Liability of the Servicer.

(a) Notwithstanding any Subservicing Agreement, any of the provisions of this Servicing Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements between the Servicer and a Subservicer or reference to actions taken through a Subservicer or otherwise, the Servicer shall under all circumstances remain obligated and primarily liable to the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing Entity and the Securityholdersfor the servicing and administering of the Mortgage Loans and any REO Property in accordance with this Servicing Agreement. The obligations and liability of the Servicer shall not be diminished by virtue of Subservicing Agreements or by virtue of indemnification of the Servicer by any Subservicer, or any other Person. The obligations and liability of the Servicer shall remain of the same nature and under the same terms and conditions as if the Servicer alone were servicing and administering the related Mortgage Loans. The Servicer shall, however, be entitled to enter into indemnification agreements with any Subservicer or other Person and nothing in this Servicing Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such indemnification. For the purposes of this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall be deemed to have received any payment on a Mortgage Loan on the date the Subservicer received such payment; provided, however, that this sentence shall not apply to the Master Servicer as the successor servicer.

Any Subservicing Agreement that may be entered into and any transactions or services relating to the Mortgage Loans involving a Subservicer in its capacity as such shall be deemed to be between the Subservicer and the Servicer alone, and none of the Master Servicer, the Indenture Trustee, the Issuing Entity or the Securityholders shall be deemed a party thereto and shall have no claims, rights, obligations, duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer except as set forth in Section 3.05.

Section 3.05 Assumption or Termination of Subservicing Agreements by Master Servicer.

(a) If the Master Servicer or a successor servicer shall assume the servicing obligations of the Servicer in accordance with Section 6.02 below, the Master Servicer or successor servicer, to the extent necessary to permit the Master Servicer to carry out the provisions of Section 6.02 with respect to the Mortgage Loans, shall succeed to all of the rights and obligations of the Servicer under each of the Subservicing Agreements, unless such Subservicing Agreements are terminated in accordance with Section 3.02(a) hereof. If such Subservicing Agreements are not terminated, the Master Servicer or its designee as the successor master servicer shall be deemed to have assumed all of the Servicer’s rights and obligations therein and to have replaced the Servicer as a party to such Subservicing Agreements to the same extent as if such Subservicing Agreements had been assigned to the Master Servicer or its designee as a successor master servicer, except that the Master Servicer or its designee as a successor servicer shall not be deemed to have assumed any obligations or liabilities of the Servicer arising prior to such assumption (other than the obligation to make Monthly Advances) and the Servicer shall not thereby be relieved of any liability or obligations under such Subservicing Agreements arising prior to such assumption. Nothing in the foregoing shall be deemed to entitle the Master Servicer or its designee as a successor servicer at any time to receive any portion of the servicing compensation provided under Section 3.15 except for such portion as the Servicer would be entitled to receive.

(b) In the event that the Master Servicer or a successor servicer assumes the servicing obligations of the Servicer under Section 6.02, upon the reasonable request of the Master Servicer or such successor servicer, the terminated Servicer shall at its own expense (or the expense of the Trust, if the Servicer fails to do so) deliver to the Master Servicer, or to such successor servicer photocopies of all documents, files and records, electronic or otherwise, relating to the Subservicing Agreements and the related Mortgage Loans or REO Property then being serviced and an accounting of amounts collected and held by it, if any, and will otherwise cooperate and use its reasonable efforts to effect the orderly and efficient transfer of the Subservicing Agreements, or responsibilities hereunder to the Master Servicer, or to such successor servicer or the termination of such Subservicing Agreements in accordance with Section 3.02(a).

Section 3.06 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.

(a) The Servicer will coordinate and monitor remittances by Subservicers to it with respect to the Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Servicing Agreement.

(b) The Servicer shall make its best reasonable efforts to collect or cause to be collected all payments required under the terms and provisions of the Mortgage Loans and shall follow, and use its best reasonable efforts to cause Subservicers to follow, collection procedures comparable to the collection procedures of prudent mortgage lenders servicing mortgage loans for their own account to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Servicing Agreement. Consistent with the foregoing, the Servicer or the related Subservicer may in its discretion (i) waive or permit to be waived any late payment charge, assumption fee, or any penalty interest in connection with the prepayment of a Mortgage Loan and (ii) suspend or reduce or permit to be suspended or reduced regular monthly payments for a period of up to six months, or arrange or permit an arrangement with a Mortgagor for a scheduled liquidation of delinquencies; provided, however, that the Servicer or the related Subservicer may permit the foregoing only if it believes, in good faith, that recoveries of Monthly Payments will be maximized; provided further, however, that Monthly Payments may not be suspended during the twelve months prior to the final maturity of the Securities . In the event the Servicer or related Subservicer shall consent to the deferment of the due dates for payments due on a Mortgage Note, the Servicer shall nonetheless make a Monthly Advance or shall cause the related Subservicer to make a Monthly Advance to the same extent as if such installment were due, owing and delinquent and had not been deferred through liquidation of the Mortgaged Property; provided, however, that the obligation of the Servicer or the related Subservicer to make a Monthly Advance shall apply only to the extent that the Servicer believes, in good faith, that such advances are not Nonrecoverable Advances.

(c) Within five Business Days after the Servicer has determined that all amounts which it expects to recover from or on account of a Mortgage Loan have been recovered and that no further Liquidation Proceeds will be received in connection therewith, the Servicer shall provide to the Master Servicer and the Securities Administrator a certificate of a Servicing Officer that such Mortgage Loan became a Liquidated Mortgage Loan as of the date of such determination. The Servicer shall provide to the Master Servicer a monthly summary of each Mortgage Loan that became a Liquidated Mortgage Loan.

(d) The Servicer shall establish a segregated account in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders(the “Protected Account”), which shall be an Eligible Account, in which the Servicer shall deposit or cause to be deposited any amounts representing payments on and any collections in respect of the Mortgage Loans due subsequent to the Cut-off Date (other than in respect of the payments referred to in the following paragraph) within 2 Business Days following receipt thereof (or otherwise on or prior to the Closing Date), including the following payments and collections received or made by it (without duplication):

(i) all payments of principal, including Principal Prepayments and Prepayment Penalties, of or interest on the Mortgage Loans (including advances by a Subservicer) received by the Servicer directly from Mortgagors or from the respective Subservicer;

(ii) the aggregate Repurchase Price of the Mortgage Loans purchased by the Servicer pursuant to Section 3.18;

(iii) Net Liquidation Proceeds;

(iv) all proceeds of any Mortgage Loans repurchased by the Sponsor pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement and all Substitution Adjustment Amounts required to be deposited in connection with the substitution of an Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to the Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement;

(v) Insurance Proceeds, other than Net Liquidation Proceeds, resulting from any insurance policy maintained on a Mortgaged Property;

(vi) any Monthly Advance and any Compensating Interest payments;

(vii) any other amounts received by the Servicer, including any fees or penalties not retained by a Subservicer, required to be deposited in the Protected Account pursuant to this Servicing Agreement;

(viii) the amount of any losses incurred by the Servicer with respect to the investment of funds in the Protected Account; and

(ix) all prepayment penalties received by the Servicer directly from Mortgagors or from the respective Subservicer.

provided, however, that with respect to each Due Period, the Servicer shall be permitted to retain from payments in respect of interest on the Mortgage Loans, the Servicing Fee for such Due Period. The foregoing requirements respecting deposits to the Protected Account are exclusive, it being understood that, without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Servicer need not deposit in the Protected Account fees (including annual fees or assumption fees) or late charges, payable by Mortgagors, each as further described in Section 3.15, or amounts received by the Servicer for the accounts of Mortgagors for application towards the payment of taxes, insurance premiums, assessments and similar items, which amounts shall be deposited in the related Servicing Account pursuant to Section 3.08. In the event any amount not required to be deposited in the Protected Account is so deposited, the Servicer may at any time (prior to being terminated under this Agreement) withdraw such amount from the Protected Account, any provision herein to the contrary notwithstanding. The Servicer shall keep records that accurately reflect the funds on deposit in the Protected Account that have been identified by it as being attributable to the Mortgage Loans and shall hold all collections in the Protected Account for the benefit of the Securityholders. The Servicer shall be entitled to retain all Foreclosure Profits and shall not be obligated to deposit any Foreclosure Profits in the Protected Account.

Funds in the Protected Account may not be invested with, and shall not be commingled with, the Servicer’s own funds or general assets or with funds respecting payments on mortgage loans or with any other funds not related to the Securities . Funds in the Protected Account shall be invested solely in Eligible Investments, designated in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders, which shall mature not later than the Business Day next preceding the Servicer Remittance Date next following the date of such investment and shall not be sold or disposed of prior to maturity. All income and gain realized from any such investment shall be for the benefit of the Servicer or the related Subservicer. The amount of any losses incurred with respect to any such investments shall be deposited in the Protected Account by the Servicer on the Business Day prior to the Servicer Remittance Date.

(e) The Servicer will require each Subservicer to hold all funds constituting collections on the Mortgage Loans, pending remittance thereof to the Servicer, in one or more accounts meeting the requirements of an Eligible Account, and invested in Eligible Investments, and in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders. The related Subservicer 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 any other funds.

Section 3.07 Withdrawals from the Protected Account.

(a) The Servicer shall, from time to time as provided herein, make withdrawals from the Protected Account of amounts on deposit therein pursuant to Section 3.06 that are attributable to the Mortgage Loans for the following purposes (without duplication):

(i) to remit to the Securities Administrator, by the Servicer Remittance Date, all amounts required to be deposited in the Protected Account as of the close of business on the related Determination Date;

(ii) to the extent deposited to the Protected Account, to reimburse itself or the related Subservicer for previously unreimbursed expenses incurred in maintaining individual insurance policies pursuant to Sections 3.10 or 3.11, or Liquidation Expenses, paid pursuant to Section 3.13 or otherwise reimbursable pursuant to the terms of this Servicing Agreement, such withdrawal right being limited to amounts received on the related Mortgage Loans (other than any Repurchase Price in respect thereto) which represent late recoveries of the payments for which such advances were made, or from related Liquidation Proceeds;

(iii) to pay to itself out of each payment received on account of interest on a Mortgage Loan as contemplated by Section 3.15, an amount equal to the related Servicing Fee (to the extent not retained pursuant to Section 3.06);

(iv) to pay to itself or the Sponsor, with respect to any Mortgage Loan or property acquired in respect thereof that has been purchased or otherwise transferred to the Sponsor, the Servicer or other entity, all amounts received thereon and not required to be distributed to Securityholders as of the date on which the related Purchase Price or Repurchase Price is determined;

(v) to reimburse the Servicer or any Subservicer for any Monthly Advance of its own funds or any advance of such Subservicer’s own funds, the right of the Servicer or a Subservicer to reimbursement pursuant to this subclause (v) being limited to amounts received (including, for this purpose, the Repurchase Price therefor, Insurance Proceeds and Liquidation Proceeds) which represent late payments or recoveries of the principal of or interest on such Mortgage Loan respecting which such Monthly Advance or advance was made;

(vi) to reimburse the Servicer or any Subservicer from Insurance Proceeds, Liquidation Proceeds relating to a particular Mortgage Loan for amounts expended by the Servicer or such Subservicer pursuant to Section 3.13 in good faith in connection with the restoration of the related Mortgaged Property which was damaged by the Uninsured Cause or in connection with the liquidation of such Mortgage Loan;

(vii) to pay the Servicer or any Subservicer (payment to any Subservicer to be subject to prior payment to the Servicer of an amount equal to the Servicing Fee), as appropriate, from Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds received in connection with the liquidation of any Mortgage Loan, the amount which it or such Subservicer would have been entitled to receive under subclause (iii) of this Subsection 3.07(a) as servicing compensation on account of each defaulted Monthly Payment on such Mortgage Loan if paid in a timely manner by the related Mortgagor, but only to the extent that the aggregate of Liquidation Proceeds and Insurance Proceeds with respect to such Mortgage Loan, after any reimbursement to the Servicer or any Subservicer, pursuant to other subclauses of this Subsection 3.07(a), exceeds the outstanding Stated Principal Balance of such Mortgage Loan plus accrued and unpaid interest thereon at the related Mortgage Rate less the Servicing Fee Rate to but not including the date of payment (in any event, the aggregate amount of servicing compensation received by a Subservicer and the Servicer with respect to any defaulted Monthly Payment shall not exceed the applicable Servicing Fee);

(viii) to reimburse the Servicer or any Subservicer for any Nonrecoverable Advance previously made, and not otherwise reimbursed pursuant to this Subsection 3.07(a);

(ix) to withdraw any other amount deposited in the Protected Account that was not required to be deposited therein pursuant to Section 3.06;

(x) to reimburse the Servicer for costs incurred by it associated with the environmental report specified in Section 3.13(e); and

(xi) to clear and terminate the Protected Account following a termination of the Trust pursuant to Section 8.01 of the Trust Agreement.

In connection with withdrawals pursuant to clauses (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi) and (vii), the Servicer’s entitlement thereto is limited to collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan, and the Servicer shall keep and maintain separate accounting, on a Mortgage Loan by Mortgage Loan basis, for the purpose of justifying any withdrawal from the Protected Account pursuant to such clauses. Notwithstanding any other provision of this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall be entitled to reimburse itself for any previously unreimbursed expenses incurred pursuant to Section 3.13 or otherwise reimbursable expenses incurred pursuant to the terms of this Servicing Agreement, but only to the extent of collections or other recoveries on the related Mortgage Loan.

(b) Notwithstanding the provisions of this Section 3.07, the Servicer may, but is not required to, allow the Subservicers to deduct from amounts received by them or from the related account maintained by a Subservicer, prior to deposit in the Protected Account, any portion to which such Subservicers are entitled hereunder as servicing compensation (including income on Eligible Investments) or reimbursement of any reimbursable Servicing Advances made by such Subservicers.

(c) The Servicer shall pay to the Securities Administrator interest on any payments to the Payment Account which were due on a Servicer Remittance Date but were made after the related Servicer Remittance Date at a rate equal to the federal funds rate from the date due to the date paid, both inclusive. This interest shall be solely an obligation of the Servicer and shall not be recoverable by the Securities Administrator from the Trust or from any other source.

Section 3.08 Collection of Taxes Assessments and Similar Items; Servicing Accounts.

(a) The Servicer shall establish and maintain or cause the related Subservicer to establish and maintain, one or more Servicing Accounts. The Servicer or a Subservicer will deposit and retain therein all collections from the Mortgagors for the payment of taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or comparable items as agent of the Mortgagors.

(b) The deposits in the Servicing Accounts shall be held in trust by the Servicer or a Subservicer (and its successors and assigns) in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders. Such Servicing Accounts shall be Eligible Accounts and if permitted by applicable law, invested in Eligible Investments held in trust by the Servicer or a Subservicer as described above and maturing, or be subject to redemption or withdrawal, no later than the date on which such funds are required to be withdrawn, and in no event later than 45 days after the date of investment; withdrawals of amounts from the Servicing Accounts may be made only to effect timely payment of taxes, assessments, insurance premiums, or comparable items, to reimburse the Servicer or a Subservicer for any advances made with respect to such items, to refund to any Mortgagors any sums as may be determined to be overages, to pay interest, if required, to Mortgagors on balances in the Servicing Accounts or to clear and terminate the Servicing Accounts at or any time after the termination of this Servicing Agreement.

Section 3.09 Access to Certain Documentation and Information Regarding the Mortgage Loans.

The Servicer shall provide, and shall cause any Subservicer to provide, to the Master Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee or its designee access to the documentation regarding the related Mortgage Loans and REO Property and to the Securityholders, the FDIC, and the supervisory agents and examiners of the FDIC access to the documentation regarding the related Mortgage Loans required by applicable regulations, such access being afforded without charge but only upon reasonable request and during normal business hours at the offices of the Servicer or the Subservicers that are designated by these entities; provided, however, that, unless otherwise required by law, the Servicer or the Subservicer shall not be required to provide access to such documentation if the provision thereof would violate the legal right to privacy of any Mortgagor; provided, further, however, that the Master Servicer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee shall coordinate their requests for such access so as not to impose an unreasonable burden on, or cause an unreasonable interruption of, the business of the Servicer or any Subservicer. The Servicer and the Subservicers shall allow representatives of the above entities to photocopy any of the documentation and shall provide equipment for that purpose at a charge that covers their own actual out-of-pocket costs.

Section 3.10 Maintenance of Primary Insurance Policies; Collection Thereunder.

The Servicer shall, or shall cause the related Subservicer to, exercise its best reasonable efforts to maintain and keep in full force and effect each Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy by a Qualified Insurer, or other insurer satisfactory to the Rating Agencies, with respect to each Mortgage Loan as to which as of the Cut-off Date a Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy was in effect and the original principal amount of the related Mortgage Note exceeded 80% of the Collateral Value in an amount at least equal to the excess of such original principal amount over 75% of such Collateral Value until the principal amount of any such first lien Mortgage Loan is reduced below 80% of the Collateral Value or, based upon a new appraisal, the principal amount of such first lien Mortgage Loan represents less than 80% of the new appraised value of the related Mortgaged Property. The Servicer shall, or shall cause the related Subservicer to, effect the timely payment of the premium on each Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy. The Servicer and the related Subservicer shall have the power to substitute for any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy another substantially equivalent policy issued by another Qualified Insurer, provided, that, such substitution shall be subject to the condition that it will not cause the ratings on the applicable Securities to be downgraded or withdrawn, as evidenced by a writing from each Rating Agency.

Section 3.11 Maintenance of Hazard Insurance and Fidelity Coverage.

(a) The Servicer shall maintain and keep, or cause each Subservicer to maintain and keep, with respect to each Mortgage Loan and REO Property, in full force and effect hazard insurance (fire insurance with extended coverage) equal to at least the lesser of the Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loan (including any cumulative related Negative Amortization) or the current replacement cost of the related Mortgaged Property, and containing a standard mortgagee clause, provided, however, that the amount of hazard insurance may not be less than the amount necessary to prevent loss due to the application of any co-insurance provision of the related policy. Unless applicable state law requires a higher deductible, the deductible on such hazard insurance policy may be no more than $1,000 or 1% of the applicable amount of coverage, whichever is less. In the case of a condominium unit or a unit in a planned unit development, the required hazard insurance shall take the form of a multi-peril policy covering the entire condominium project or planned unit development, in an amount equal to at least 100% of the insurable value based on replacement cost.

(b) Any amounts collected by the Servicer or a Subservicer under any such hazard insurance policy (other than amounts to be applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property or amounts released to the Mortgagor in accordance with the Servicer’s or a Subservicer’s normal servicing procedures, the Mortgage Note, the Security Instrument or applicable law) shall be deposited initially in a Protected Account, for transmittal to the Payment Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.07.

(c) Any cost incurred by a Servicer or a Subservicer in maintaining any such hazard insurance policy shall not be added to the amount owing under the Mortgage Loan for the purpose of calculating monthly distributions to the Securities Administrator, notwithstanding that the terms of the Mortgage Loan so permit. Such costs shall be recoverable by the Servicer or a Subservicer out of related late payments by the Mortgagor or out of Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds or by the Servicer from the Repurchase Price, or as otherwise provided in Section 3.07.

(d) No earthquake or other additional insurance is to be required of any Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired with respect to a Security Instrument other than pursuant to such applicable laws and regulations as shall at any time be in force and shall require such additional insurance. When, at the time of origination of a Mortgage Loan or at any subsequent time, the Mortgaged Property is located in a federally designated special flood hazard area, the Servicer shall use its best reasonable efforts to cause with respect to the related Mortgage Loans and each REO Property flood insurance (to the extent available and in accordance with mortgage servicing industry practice) to be maintained. Such flood insurance shall cover the related Mortgaged Property, including all items taken into account in arriving at the Appraised Value on which the related Mortgage Loan was based, and shall be in an amount equal to the lesser of (i) the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan (including any cumulative related Negative Amortization) and (ii) the minimum amount required under the terms of coverage to compensate for any damage or loss on a replacement cost basis, but not more than the maximum amount of such insurance available for the related Mortgaged Property under either the regular or emergency programs of the National Flood Insurance Program (assuming that the area in which such Mortgaged Property is located is participating in such program). Unless applicable state law requires a higher deductible, the deductible on such flood insurance may not exceed $1,000 or 1% of the applicable amount of coverage, whichever is less.

(e) If insurance has not been maintained complying with Subsections 3.11 (a) and (d) and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such insurance had it been maintained, the Servicer shall pay, or cause the related Subservicer to pay, for any necessary repairs.

(f) The Servicer shall present, or cause the related Subservicer to present, claims under any applicable Primary Insurance Policy, Lender Paid Mortgage Insurance Policy or the related hazard insurance or flood insurance policy.

(g) The Servicer shall obtain and maintain at its own expense and for the duration of this Servicing Agreement and shall cause each Subservicer to obtain and maintain a blanket fidelity bond and an errors and omissions insurance policy covering such Person’s officers, employees and other persons acting on its behalf in connection with its activities under this Servicing Agreement or the related Subservicing Agreement. The amount of coverage shall be at least equal to the coverage maintained by the Servicer acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac to service loans for it or otherwise in an amount as is commercially available at a cost that is generally not regarded as excessive by industry standards. The Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer of any material change in the terms of such bond or policy. The Servicer shall provide annually to the Master Servicer a certificate of insurance that each such bond and policy are in effect. If any such bond or policy ceases to be in effect, the Servicer shall, to the extent possible, give the Master Servicer ten days’ notice prior to any such cessation and the Servicer shall use its reasonable best efforts to obtain a comparable replacement bond or policy, as the case may be. Any amounts relating to the Mortgage Loans collected under each such bond or policy shall be deposited initially in a Protected Account for transmittal to the Payment Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 3.07.

Section 3.12 Due-on-Sale Clauses; Assumption Agreements.

(a) In any case in which the Servicer is notified by any Mortgagor or Subservicer that a Mortgaged Property relating to a Mortgage Loan has been or is about to be conveyed by the Mortgagor, the Servicer shall enforce, or shall instruct such Subservicer to enforce, any due-on-sale clause contained in the related Security Instrument to the extent permitted under the terms of the related Mortgage Note and by applicable law. The Servicer or the related Subservicer may repurchase a Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price when the Servicer requires acceleration of the Mortgage Loan, but only if the Servicer is satisfied, as evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate delivered to the Master Servicer, that either (i) such Mortgage Loan is in default or default is reasonably foreseeable or (ii) if such Mortgage Loan is not in default or default is not reasonably foreseeable, such repurchase will have no adverse tax consequences for the Trust Estate or any Securityholder. If the Servicer reasonably believes that such due-on-sale clause cannot be enforced under applicable law or if the Mortgage Loan does not contain a due-on-sale clause, the Servicer is authorized, and may authorize any Subservicer, to consent to a conveyance subject to the lien of the Mortgage, and to take or enter into an assumption agreement from or with the Person to whom such property has been or is about to be conveyed, pursuant to which such Person becomes liable under the related Mortgage Note and unless prohibited by applicable state law, such Mortgagor remains liable thereon, on condition, however, that the related Mortgage Loan shall continue to be covered by a hazard policy and (if so covered before the Servicer or the related Subservicer enters into such agreement) by any Primary Insurance Policy. In connection with any such assumption, no material term of the related Mortgage Note may be changed. The Servicer shall forward to the Indenture Trustee the original copy of such assumption agreement, which copy shall be added by the Indenture Trustee to the related Mortgage File and which 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. A portion, equal to up to 2% of the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, of any fee or additional interest collected by the Servicer or the related Subservicer for consenting in any such conveyance or entering into any such assumption agreement may be retained by the Servicer or related Subservicer as additional servicing compensation.

(b) Notwithstanding the foregoing paragraph or any other provision of this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any other violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage Loan by operation of law or any conveyance by the Mortgagor of the related Mortgaged Property or assumption of a Mortgage Loan which the Servicer reasonably believes it may be restricted by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever or if the exercise of such right would impair or threaten to impair any recovery under any applicable insurance policy.

Section 3.13 Realization Upon Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

(a) The Servicer shall, or shall direct the related Subservicer to, foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert the ownership of properties securing any Mortgage Loans that come into and continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 3.06, except that the Servicer shall not, and shall not direct the related Subservicer to, foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert a Mortgaged Property if there is evidence of toxic waste or other environmental hazards thereon unless the Servicer follows the procedures in Subsection (e) below.

(b) The Servicer shall foreclose or shall direct the related Subservicer to foreclose on any Mortgaged Property in the name of the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Securityholders.

(c) In connection with such foreclosure or other conversion, the Servicer in conjunction with the related Subservicer, if any, shall use its best reasonable efforts to preserve REO Property and to realize upon defaulted Mortgage Loans in such manner (including short sales) as to maximize the receipt of principal and interest by the Securityholders, taking into account, among other things, the timing of foreclosure and the considerations set forth in Subsection 3.13(d). The foregoing is subject to the proviso that the Servicer shall not be required to expend its own funds in connection with any foreclosure or towards the restoration of any property unless it determines in good faith (i) that such restoration or foreclosure will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the Mortgage Loan to the Securityholders after reimbursement to itself for such expenses and (ii) that such expenses will be recoverable to it either through Liquidation Proceeds (respecting which it shall have priority for purposes of reimbursements from the Protected Account pursuant to Section 3.07) or through Insurance Proceeds (respecting which it shall have similar priority). The Servicer shall be responsible for all other costs and expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings; provided, however, that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof (as well as its normal servicing compensation). Any income from or other funds (net of any income taxes) generated by REO Property shall be deemed for purposes of this Servicing Agreement to be Insurance Proceeds.

(d) The Trust Estate shall not acquire any real property (or any personal property incident to such real property) except in connection with a default or reasonably foreseeable default of a Mortgage Loan. In the event that the Trust Estate acquires any real property (or personal property incident to such real property) in connection with a default or imminent default of a Mortgage Loan, such property shall be disposed of by the Servicer (or its agent) on behalf of the Trust Estate within two years after its acquisition by the Trust Estate.

(e) With respect to any Mortgage Loan as to which the Servicer or a Subservicer has received notice of, or has actual knowledge of, the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the Mortgaged Property, the Servicer shall promptly notify the Master Servicer and shall act in accordance with any directions and instructions provided by the Master Servicer. If the Master Servicer has not provided directions and instructions to the Servicer in connection with any such Mortgage Loan within 30 days of a request by the Servicer for such directions and instructions, then the Servicer shall take such action as it deems to be in the best economic interest of the Trust Estate (other than proceeding against the Mortgaged Property) and is hereby authorized at such time as it deems appropriate to release such Mortgaged Property from the lien of the related Mortgage. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Servicer shall not obtain on behalf of the Issuing Entity a deed as a result or in lieu of foreclosure, and shall not otherwise acquire possession of or title to, or commence any proceedings to acquire possession of or title to, or take any other action with respect to, any Mortgaged Property, if the Master Servicer, the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee could reasonably be considered to be a responsible party for any liability arising from the presence of any toxic or hazardous substance on the Mortgaged Property.

Section 3.14 Indenture Trustee to Cooperate; Release of Mortgage Files.

(a) Upon payment in full of any Mortgage Loan or the receipt by the Servicer of a notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for such purposes, the Servicer will immediately notify the Indenture Trustee by a certification signed by a Servicing Officer in the form of the request for release “Request for Release”) attached hereto as Exhibit B (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 Protected Account have been so deposited) and shall request delivery to the Servicer or Subservicer, as the case may be, of the related Mortgage File. Upon receipt of such certification and request, the Indenture Trustee shall release the related Mortgage File to the Servicer or Subservicer and execute and deliver to the Servicer, without recourse, representation or warranty the request for reconveyance, deed of reconveyance or release or satisfaction of mortgage or such instrument releasing the lien of the Security Instrument (furnished by the Servicer), together with the Mortgage Note. In connection with the satisfaction of any MOM Loan, the Servicer is authorized to cause the removal from the registration on the MERS7 System of such Mortgage.

(b) From time to time as is appropriate, for the servicing or foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan or collection under an insurance policy, the Servicer may deliver to the Indenture Trustee a Request for Release signed by a Servicing Officer on behalf of the Servicer in substantially the form attached as Exhibit B hereto. Upon receipt of the Request for Release, the Indenture Trustee shall deliver the Mortgage File or any document therein to the Servicer or Subservicer, as the case may be, as bailee for the Indenture Trustee.

(c) The Servicer shall cause each Mortgage File or any document therein released pursuant to Subsection 3.14(b) to be returned to the Indenture Trustee when the need therefor no longer exists, and in any event within 21 days of the Servicer’s receipt thereof, unless the Mortgage Loan has become a Liquidated Mortgage Loan and the Liquidation Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Protected Account or such Mortgage File is being used to pursue foreclosure or other legal proceedings. Prior to return of a Mortgage File or any document to the Indenture Trustee, the Servicer, the related insurer or Subservicer to whom such file or document was delivered shall retain such file or document in its respective control as bailee for the Indenture Trustee unless 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, to initiate or pursue legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure of the related Mortgaged Property either judicially or non- judicially, and the Servicer has delivered to the Indenture Trustee 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. If a Mortgage Loan becomes a Liquidated Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall deliver the Request for Release with respect thereto to the Indenture Trustee and, upon deposit of the related Liquidation Proceeds in the Protected Account, as certified to the Indenture Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, shall deliver the related Mortgage File or any document therein to the Servicer or Subservicer, as applicable.

(d) The Indenture Trustee shall execute and deliver to the Servicer any court pleadings, requests for trustee’s sale or other documents prepared and delivered to the Indenture Trustee for execution necessary to (i) the foreclosure or trustee’s sale with respect to a Mortgaged Property; (ii) any legal action brought to obtain judgment against any Mortgagor on the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument; (iii) obtain a deficiency judgment against the Mortgagor; or (iv) enforce any other rights or remedies provided by the Mortgage Note or Security Instrument or otherwise available at law or equity. Together with such documents or pleadings the Servicer shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee a certificate of a Servicing Officer in which it requests the Indenture Trustee to cause to be executed the pleadings or documents. The Indenture Trustee and any officer, director, employee or agent of the Indenture Trustee may rely in good faith on any such document submitted by the Servicer. The certificate shall certify and explain the reasons for which the pleadings or documents are required. It shall further certify that the execution and delivery of the pleadings or documents will not invalidate any insurance coverage under the insurance policies or invalidate or otherwise affect the lien of the Security Instrument, except for the termination of such a lien upon completion of the foreclosure or trustee’s sale.

Section 3.15 Servicing Compensation.

(a) As compensation for its activities hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive the Servicing Fee from full payments of accrued interest on each Mortgage Loan or as otherwise provided in Section 3.07. The Servicer shall be solely responsible for paying any and all fees with respect to a Subservicer and neither the Master Servicer nor the Indenture Trustee shall bear any fees, expenses or other costs directly associated with any Subservicer.

(b) The Servicer may retain additional servicing compensation in the form of a portion of the assumption fees, up to 2% of the Stated Principal Balance of the related Mortgage Loan, fees for statement of account or payoff, late payment charges or otherwise, to the extent such fees are collected from the related Mortgagors or, with respect to a Liquidated Mortgage Loan, to the extent such fees have accrued. The Servicer shall be required to pay all expenses it incurs in connection with servicing activities under this Servicing Agreement and shall not be entitled in connection with servicing activities under this Servicing Agreement to reimbursement except as provided in this Servicing Agreement. Expenses to be paid by the Servicer under this Subsection 3.15(b) shall include payment of the expenses of the accountants retained pursuant to Section 3.17.

Section 3.16 Reserved.

Section 3.17 Reserved.

Section 3.18 Optional Purchase of Defaulted Mortgage Loans.

The Servicer may, but is not obligated to, repurchase from the Issuer any Mortgage Loan delinquent in payment for a period of 90 days or longer for a price equal to the Repurchase Price so long as such repurchase occurs prior to the end of the calendar quarter in which such mortgage loan became 90 days or more delinquent. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Indenture Trustee, whether acting as Indenture Trustee or in the capacity of successor Master Servicer, shall have no obligation hereunder or under any other Basic Document to repurchase any Mortgage Loan.

Section 3.19 Information Required by the Internal Revenue Service Generally and Reports of Foreclosures and Abandonments of Mortgaged Property.

The Servicer shall prepare and deliver all federal and state information reports when and as required by all applicable state and federal income tax laws. In particular, with respect to the requirement under Section 6050J of the Code to the effect that the Servicer or a Subservicer shall make reports of foreclosures and abandonments of any mortgaged property for each year beginning in 2006, the Servicer or Subservicer shall file reports relating to each instance occurring during the previous calendar year in which the Servicer or such Subservicer (i) acquires an interest in any Mortgaged Property through foreclosure or other comparable conversion in full or partial satisfaction of a Mortgage Loan, or (ii) knows or has reason to know that any Mortgaged Property has been abandoned. The reports from the Servicer or Subservicer shall be in form and substance sufficient to meet the reporting requirements imposed by Section 6050J, Section 6050H (reports relating to mortgage interest received) and Section 6050P of the Code (reports relating to cancellation of indebtedness).

Section 3.20 Fair Credit Reporting Act.

The Servicer, in its capacity as Servicer for each Mortgage Loan, agrees to 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 Union Credit Information Company (three of the credit reporsitories), on a monthly basis.

Section 3.21 Waiver of Prepayment Charges.

Except as provided below, the Servicer or any designee of the Servicer shall not waive any prepayment charge with respect to any Mortgage Loan. If the Servicer or any Subservicer fails to collect a prepayment charge at the time of the related prepayment of any Mortgage Loan subject to such prepayment charge, the Servicer shall deposit to the Protected Account at the time of payoff an amount equal to the amount of the prepayment charge not collected. Notwithstanding the above, the Servicer or any Subservicer may waive a prepayment charge only if (i) such waiver is standard and customary in servicing similar mortgage loans to the Mortgage Loans (including any waiver of a prepayment charge in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan related to a default or a reasonably foreseeable default), and (ii) such waiver, in the reasonable judgment of the Servicer, would maximize recovery of total proceeds from the Mortgage Loan, taking into account the value of such prepayment charge and the related Mortgage Loan. In no event will the Servicer 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 a prepayment charge is waived as permitted by meeting the standards described above, then the Servicer is required to pay the amount of such waived prepayment charge, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class B-3 Notes, by depositing such amount into the Protected Account together with and at the time that the amount prepaid on the related Mortgage Loan is required to be deposited into the Protected Account.

Within 90 days of the earlier of discovery by the Servicer or receipt of notice by the Servicer of the breach of the representation or covenant of the Servicer set forth in this Section 3.21 which materially and adversely affects the interests of the Holders of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class B-3 Notes in any prepayment charge, the Servicer shall remedy such breach as follows: if any of the covenants made by the Servicer in this Section 3.21 is breached, the Servicer must pay the amount of such waived prepayment charge, for the benefit of the Holders of the Class A-1, Class A-2, Class A-3 and Class B-3 Notes, by depositing such amount into the Protected Account.

Section 4.04 Advances.

If any Monthly Payment on a Mortgage Loan that was due on the immediately preceding Due Date or due during the related Due Period and delinquent on a Determination Date is delinquent other than as a result of application of the Relief Act, the Servicer will deposit in the Protected Account not later than the related Servicer Remittance Date an amount equal to such Monthly Payment net of the related Servicing Fee for such Mortgage Loan, except to the extent the Servicer or the related Subservicer determines any such advance to be nonrecoverable from Liquidation Proceeds, Insurance Proceeds or future payments on any Mortgage Loan. Subject to the foregoing and in the absence of such a determination, the Servicer shall continue to make such advances through the date that the related Mortgaged Property or REO Property has, in the judgment of the Servicer, been completely liquidated. No later than the fourth Business Day preceding each Payment Date, the Servicer shall present an Officer’s Certificate to the Master Servicer with respect to the Mortgage Loans, (i) stating that the Servicer elects not to make a Monthly Advance in a stated amount and (ii) detailing the reason it deems the advance to be a Nonrecoverable Advance.

Such Monthly Advances may be made in whole or in part from funds in the Protected Account being held for future distribution or withdrawal on or in connection with Payment Dates in subsequent months. Any funds being held for future distribution to Securityholders and so used shall be replaced by the Servicer from its own funds by deposit in the Protected Account prior to the related Servicer Remittance Date to the extent that funds in the Protected Account with respect to the related Payment Date shall be less than payments to Securityholders required to be made on such date.

Any Advances made on any Mortgage Loan will be reduced to reflect any related servicing modifications previously made.

The Servicer and any director or officer or employee or agent of the Servicer may rely in good faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted by any Person respecting any matters arising hereunder.

The Servicer agrees to cooperate with the Master Servicer in effecting the termination of the responsibilities and rights of the Servicer hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to the Master Servicer or the successor servicer for administration by it of (i) the property and amounts which are then or should be part of the Trust Estate or which thereafter become part of the Trust Estate; (ii) originals or copies of all documents of the Servicer reasonably requested by the Master Servicer to enable it to assume the Servicer’s duties thereunder and under the Subservicing Agreements; (iii) unless terminated in accordance with this Servicing Agreement, the rights and obligations of the Servicer under the Subservicing Agreements with respect to the Mortgage Loans; (iv) all cash amounts which shall at the time be deposited by the Servicer or should have been deposited to the Protected Account, the related Servicing Accounts or the Payment Account or thereafter be received with respect to the Mortgage Loans; and (v) all costs or expenses associated with the complete transfer of all servicing data and the completion, correction or manipulation of such servicing data as may be required by the Master Servicer or any successor servicer to correct any errors or insufficiencies in the servicing data or otherwise to enable the Master Servicer or successor servicer to service the Mortgage Loans properly and effectively. All reasonable costs and expenses (including, but not limited to, attorneys’ fees and disbursements) incurred by the Master Servicer or a successor servicer in connection with its succession as Servicer, or the Indenture Trustee in accordance with such succession (as provided below), including amending this Servicing Agreement to reflect such succession as Servicer pursuant to this Section 6.01 shall be paid by the predecessor Servicer (or if the predecessor Servicer is the Master Servicer, the terminated Servicer) upon presentation of reasonable documentation of such costs and expenses.

The Trustee or its affiliates are permitted to receive additional compensation that could be deemed to be in the Trustee’s economic self-interest for (i) serving as investment adviser, administrator, shareholder, servicing agent, custodian or sub-custodian with respect to certain of the Eligible Investments, (ii) using affiliates to effect transactions in certain Eligible Investments and (iii) effecting transactions in certain Eligible Investments. Such compensation is not payable or reimbursable under this Agreement.

Notwithstanding any termination of the activities of the Servicer hereunder, the Servicer shall be entitled to receive, out of any late collection of a payment on a Mortgage Loan which was due prior to the notice terminating the Servicer’s rights and obligations hereunder and received after such notice, that portion to which the Servicer would have been entitled pursuant to Sections 3.07 and 3.15 as well as its Servicing Fee in respect thereof, and any other amounts payable to the Servicer hereunder the entitlement to which arose prior to the termination of its activities hereunder.

The Servicer shall immediately notify the Master Servicer in writing of the occurrence of any Servicing Default.

Section 6.02 Master Servicer to Act; Appointment of Successor.

(a) Within 100 days of the time the Servicer sends a notice pursuant to clause (i) of Section 5.04, the Master Servicer, or other successor appointed in accordance with this Section 6.02, shall be the successor in all respects to the Servicer in its capacity as Servicer under this Servicing Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein and shall be subject to all the responsibilities, duties and liabilities relating thereto placed on the Servicer by the terms and provisions hereof, including but not limited to the provisions of Article V. Nothing in this Servicing Agreement shall be construed to permit or require the Master Servicer or any other successor servicer to (i) be responsible or accountable for any act or omission of the predecessor Servicer, (ii) require or obligate the Master Servicer, in its capacity as successor servicer, to purchase, repurchase or substitute any Mortgage Loan, (iii) fund any losses on any Eligible Investment directed by any other Servicer, or (iv) be responsible for the representations and warranties of the Servicer, except as provided herein; provided, however, that the Master Servicer, as successor servicer, shall be required to make Monthly Advances to the extent that the Servicer failed to make such Monthly Advances, to the extent such Monthly Advance is not determined by the Master Servicer to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. As compensation therefor, the Master Servicer shall be entitled to such compensation as the Servicer would have been entitled to hereunder if no such notice of termination had been given. Notwithstanding the above, (i) if the Master Servicer is unwilling to act as successor servicer, or (ii) if the Master Servicer is legally unable so to act, the Master Servicer may (in the situation described in clause (i)) or shall (in the situation described in clause (ii)) appoint or petition a court of competent jurisdiction to appoint any established housing and home finance institution, bank or other mortgage loan servicer having a net worth of not less than $10,000,000 as the successor to the Servicer hereunder in the assumption of all or any part of the responsibilities, duties or liabilities of the Servicer hereunder. Pending appointment of a successor to the Servicer hereunder, unless the Master Servicer is prohibited by law from so acting or is unwilling to act as such, the Master Servicer shall act in such capacity as hereinabove provided. In connection with such appointment and assumption, the successor shall be entitled to receive compensation out of payments on Mortgage Loans in an amount equal to the compensation which the Servicer would otherwise have received pursuant to Section 3.15 (or such lesser compensation as the Master Servicer and such successor shall agree). The appointment of a successor servicer shall not affect any liability of the predecessor Servicer which may have arisen under this Servicing Agreement prior to its termination as Servicer (including, without limitation, the obligation to pay any deductible under an insurance policy pursuant to Section 3.11 or to indemnify the Master Servicer pursuant to Section 5.06), nor shall any successor servicer be liable for any acts or omissions of the predecessor Servicer or for any breach by such Servicer of any of its representations or warranties contained herein or in any related document or agreement. The Master Servicer and such successor shall take such action, consistent with this Servicing Agreement, as shall be necessary to effectuate any such succession.

In connection with the termination or resignation of the Servicer hereunder, either (i) the successor servicer, including the Master Servicer if the Master Servicer is acting as successor servicer, shall represent and warrant that it is a member of MERS in good standing and shall agree to comply in all material respects with the rules and procedures of MERS in connection with the servicing of the Mortgage Loans that are registered with MERS, in which case the predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the successor servicer in causing MERS to revise its records to reflect the transfer of servicing to the successor servicer as necessary under MERS’ rules and regulations, or (ii) the predecessor Servicer shall cooperate with the successor servicer in causing MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to the Indenture Trustee and to execute and deliver such other notices, documents and other instruments as may be necessary or desirable to effect a transfer of such Mortgage Loan or servicing of such Mortgage Loan on the MERS7 System to the successor servicer. The terminated Servicer shall file or cause to be filed any such assignment in the appropriate recording office. The terminated Servicer shall bear any and all fees of MERS, costs of preparing any assignments of Mortgage, and fees and costs of filing any assignments of Mortgage that may be required under this Section 6.02. To the extent these fees and costs are not paid by the terminated Servicer and are incurred by any successor servicer, such fees and costs will be reimbursable to the successor servicer by the Trust. The successor servicer shall cause such assignment to be delivered to the Indenture Trustee promptly upon receipt of the original with evidence of recording thereon or a copy certified by the public recording office in which such assignment was recorded.

(b) Any successor, including the Master Servicer, to the Servicer as servicer shall during the term of its service as servicer (i) continue to service and administer the Mortgage Loans for the benefit of the Securityholders, (ii) maintain in force a policy or policies of insurance covering errors and omissions in the performance of its obligations as Servicer hereunder and a fidelity bond in respect of its officers, employees and agents to the same extent as the Servicer is so required pursuant to Section 3.11(g).

(c) Any successor servicer, including the Master Servicer, shall not be deemed to be in default or to have breached its duties hereunder if the predecessor Servicer shall fail to deliver any required deposit to the Protected Account or a Servicing Account or otherwise cooperate with any required servicing transfer or succession hereunder.

(d) Notwithstanding anything else herein to the contrary, in no event shall the Master Servicer be liable for any servicing fee or any differential in the amount of the servicing fee paid hereunder and the amount necessary to induce any successor servicer to act as a successor servicer under this Servicing Agreement and the transactions set forth or provided for herein.

(e) Notwithstanding any provision in this Servicing Agreement to the contrary, for a period of 10 days following the date on which the Servicer shall have received a notice of termination pursuant to Section 6.01 of this Servicing Agreement, the Servicer or its designee may appoint a successor servicer that satisfies the eligibility criteria of a successor servicer set forth in this Section 6.02, which appointment shall be subject to the consent of the Depositor, the Sponsor, the Master Servicer, and the Indenture Trustee, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld or delayed; provided that such successor servicer agrees to fully effect the servicing transfer within 100 days following the termination of the Servicer and to make all Monthly Advances that would otherwise be made by the Master Servicer under this Section 6.02 as of the date of such appointment, and to reimburse the Master Servicer for any unreimbursed Monthly Advances it has made and any reimbursable expenses that it has incurred in connection with this Section 6.02. Any proceeds received in connection with the appointment of such successor servicer shall be the property of the Servicer or its designee. This 10-day period shall terminate immediately (i) at the close of business on the second Business Day of such 10-day period if (A) the Servicer was terminated because of a Servicing Default described in Section 6.01(i) for failing to make a required Monthly Advance, and (B) the Servicer shall have failed to make (or cause to be made) such Monthly Advance, or shall fail to reimburse (or cause to be reimbursed) the Master Servicer for a Monthly Advance made by the Master Servicer, by the close of business on such second Business Day, or (ii) at the close of business on the second Business Day following the date (if any) during such 10-day period on which a Monthly Advance is due to be made, if the Servicer shall have failed to make (or caused to be made) such Monthly Advance, or the Servicer shall have failed to reimburse (or cause to be reimbursed) the Master Servicer for such Monthly Advance, by the close of business on such second Business Day. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary above, the Servicer shall perform all of the obligations of the Servicer in this Servicing Agreement until a successor servicer is appointed and such appointment is effective.

Section 6.03 Reserved.

Section 6.04 Waiver of Defaults.

The Master Servicer may waive any default by the Servicer in the performance of its obligations hereunder and the consequences thereof, except a default in the making of or the causing to be made any required distribution. Upon any such waiver of a past default, such default shall be deemed to cease to exist, and any Servicing Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been timely remedied for every purpose of this Servicing 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.
