(a) The Owner shall transfer the servicing of the Mortgage Loans to the Subservicer on the
Servicing Transfer Date. The procedures for affecting such transfer shall be as set forth on the
Servicing Transfer Procedures schedule attached hereto as Exhibit B. The Owner shall make
reasonable efforts to provide the Subservicer with advance written or electronic notice of the
expected mortgage loans for which servicing may be transferred on the Servicing Transfer Date. On
the Servicing Transfer Date, the Owner shall deliver twenty five (25) executed Limited Power of
Attorney forms in form and substance similar to Exhibit C, authorizing Subservicer or its
authorized agent to execute necessary loan and real estate documents on Owners behalf; and the
Subservicer shall deliver a list of its Subservicing Officers to the Owner. Additionally, with
respect to each Mortgage Loan to be serviced hereunder, the Owner shall, or the Owner shall cause
the prior servicer to, comply with the Servicing Transfer Procedures and deliver to the Subservicer
the Mortgage Loan Data Field Request (in the form set forth on Exhibit A) for each related Mortgage
Loan and, by computer readable electronic transmission, the related Mortgage Loan Schedule not
later than five (5) Business Days after the Servicing Transfer Date.
(b) No later than five (5) Business Days after the Servicing Transfer Date, the Owner
shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Subservicer all of the documents, information and
property that is required for the transfer and commencement of servicing for the related Mortgage
Loans, including without limitation the Servicing File and all escrow balances (whether positive or
negative), suspense balances, restricted escrow and other cash balances that exist in connection
with the Mortgage Loans without offset or netting of any negative balances. In the event that the
Subservicer reasonably incurs any cost or expenses because of the failure by the Owner to deliver
or cause the delivery of all such required documents, information and property (including without
limitation any advances of funds for escrows or impounds), then the Subservicer shall be reimbursed
any such amounts as Pass-Through Expenses pursuant to Section 6.3 hereof. Notwithstanding any
provision in this Agreement to the contrary, this paragraph shall not be applicable with respect to
any Mortgage Loans to the extent servicing of such Mortgage Loans was previously transferred by the
prior servicer to the Subservicer prior to the Owner becoming owner of such Mortgage Loans.
(c) Nothing shall prohibit the Subservicer or any Affiliate of the Subservicer from taking
applications from those Mortgagors who initiate action on their own, or in the case of Mortgage
Loans for which default is reasonably foreseeable, from engaging in a program generally to
encourage or recommend mortgage loan products provided by the Subservicer or such Affiliate,
providing such refinancing is in accordance with Exhibit I. The Subservicer shall
13
furnish to the Owner all marketing materials at such time such items are provided to the
Mortgagors, which materials shall be acceptable to the Owner. To the extent consistent with
Accepted Servicing Practices, as one of its loss mitigation options, the Subservicer shall consider
the refinancing of an existing Mortgage Loan in accordance with Exhibit I and to the extent for
which default is reasonably foreseeable, into a mortgage loan with a principal balance less than
the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan to the extent necessary to qualify the Mortgagor for an
FHA-insured mortgage loan.
(d) The Subservicer shall service the Mortgage Loans as provided herein commencing on the
related Servicing Transfer Dates. All servicing shall be conducted in the name of the Subservicer
as servicing agent for the Servicer; provided, however, that the Subservicer shall conduct any
foreclosure proceedings in the name of Owner or another party or an Owner Designee designated by
Owner, as provided above, and may complete and record any related Assignment of Mortgage in the
name of Owner, or such other party or Owner Designee, as applicable, in such proceedings. The
Subservicer may enter into a commercially reasonable arrangement for certain functions relating to
the servicing and administration of Mortgage Loans with any Person if such Person is in compliance
with the laws of the state(s) necessary to enable it to perform its obligations under such
servicing arrangement; provided, however, that pursuant to Section 4.5 the Subservicer shall not
delegate the servicing responsibilities with respect to any Mortgage Loan to any subservicer
without the prior written consent of the Owner. Any such arrangement shall be consistent with and
not violate the provisions of this Agreement and shall not constitute a mortgage servicing
transfer within the meaning of Section 6 of the Real Estate Procedures Settlement Act, 12 U.S.C.
§2605, (RESPA), without prior written approval of the Owner. In each case, the Subservicer shall
remain responsible for its obligations under this Agreement notwithstanding any such arrangement,
the Subservicer shall be liable for all acts and omissions of such Person as fully as if such acts
and omissions were those of the Subservicer, and the Subservicer shall pay all fees and expenses
associated with such arrangement from the Subservicers own funds..

Mortgage Loans or any Insurance Policy covering a Mortgage Loan, as agent of the Owner pursuant to
the Limited Power of Attorney.
(f) The Subservicer shall hold each Servicing File in trust for the benefit of the Owner
for the sole purpose of servicing the Mortgage Loans. The Subservicers possession of Servicing
Files shall be for the sole purpose of facilitating servicing of the related Mortgage Loan pursuant

Subservicer shall provide Owner, Servicer and Owner Designee with full access to the Servicing
Files. All records and documents with respect to the related Mortgage Loan prepared by or which
come into the possession of the Subservicer shall become part of the Servicing Files. The ownership
of each Mortgage Loan, including the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Mortgage Loan Documents, the
contents of the related Servicing File and all rights, benefits, proceeds and obligations arising
therefrom or in connection therewith, is vested in the Owner. All rights arising out of the
Mortgage Loans including, but not limited to, all funds received on or in connection with the
Mortgage Loans and all records or documents with respect to the Mortgage Loans prepared by or which
come into the possession of the Subservicer shall be received and held by the Subservicer in trust
for the benefit of the Owner as the owner of the
14
Mortgage Loans. Any portion of the Servicing Files held by the Subservicer shall be
segregated from the other books and records of the Subservicer and shall be appropriately marked to
clearly reflect the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the Owner. The Subservicer shall release
its custody of the contents of the Servicing Files only in accordance with written instructions of
the Owner, except when such release is required as incidental to the Subservicers servicing of the
Mortgage Loans. Except as provided herein, the original Mortgage Loan Documents for each Mortgage
Loan shall be retained by the Custodian pursuant to the Custodial Agreement. Except as set forth
in Section 2.3(a), any fees and expenses of the Custodian shall not be payable by the Subservicer.

to time upon reasonable notice inspect any of the Subservicers books and records pertaining to
this Agreement, including without limitation all Servicing Files, at reasonable times during the
Subservicers normal business hours at the Subservicers offices; provided, that upon the
occurrence and continuance of an Event of Default, only one (1) Business Days prior notice shall
be required. At all times while a Mortgage Loan is being serviced hereunder, the beneficial
ownership of such Mortgage Loan shall be vested and remain in the name of the Owner. All rights
arising out of each Mortgage Loan shall be vested in the Owner and the Subservicer shall not assert
any contrary interest therein.
Section 2.3 Custodial Agreement.
(a) On or prior to the Servicing Transfer Date, the Owner shall use reasonable efforts to
ensure that the Custodian has received all such Mortgage Loan Documents required to be delivered to
it pursuant to the Custodial Agreement. The Owner shall be responsible for maintaining the
Custodial Agreement and shall pay fees and expenses as required under the Custodial Agreement. In
the event that the Subservicer is required to pay any of the Custodians fees and expenses, the
Subservicer shall notify the Owner and if the Owner instructs the Subservicer to pay such fees and
expenses these shall be considered Pass-Through Expenses and the Subservicer shall be reimbursed
pursuant to the terms of Section 6.3 hereof if not previously reimbursed by the Owner.
(b) The Subservicer shall forward to the Custodian original documents evidencing any
assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any Mortgage Loan entered into in
accordance with this Agreement within ten (10) Business Days of the Subservicers receipt of an
executed copy of such document; provided, however, that the Subservicer shall provide the Custodian
with a certified true copy of any such document submitted for recordation within ten (10) Business
Days of submission, and to provide the original of any document submitted for recordation or a copy
of such document certified by the appropriate public recording office to be a true and complete

owners or prior servicers of the Mortgage Loan, including without limitation any allegation or

be liable and the Owner agrees to reimburse the Subservicer for any such expenses, costs and
liabilities as Pass-Through Expenses under the terms of this Agreement, except with respect to any

Subservicer shall follow Accepted Servicing Practices and Fannie Mae Guidelines.
(d) Consistent with the terms of this Agreement, the Subservicer 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 Subservicers reasonable and
prudent determination such waiver, modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially
adverse to the Servicer; provided, however, that the Subservicer shall not permit
any waiver or modification with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage
Interest Rate, forgive the payment thereof of any principal or interest payments, reduce the
outstanding principal amount (except for actual payments of principal), extend the final maturity
date with respect to such Mortgage Loan, waive any prepayment penalty (other than accordance with
Section 4.21) or any other act that could reasonably be
21
expected to affect materially and adversely the Owners interest in the Mortgage Note,
Mortgage Loan, Mortgage, Mortgaged Property, Mortgage Loan Documents or Mortgage Servicing File
related to a Mortgage Loan.
(e) Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event that any Mortgage Loan is a Defaulted Loan
or, in the judgment of the Subservicer, such default is reasonably foreseeable, the Subservicer,
consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices, may also waive, modify or vary the following terms of
such Mortgage Loan (including modifications that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate, forgive
the payment of interest or extend the final maturity date of such Mortgage Loan), accept payment
from the related Mortgagor of an amount less than the stated principal balance in final
satisfaction of such Mortgage Loan, or consent to the postponement of strict compliance with any
such term or otherwise grant indulgence to any Mortgagor (any and all such waivers, modifications,
variances, forgiveness of principal or interest, postponements, or indulgences collectively
referred to herein as forbearance), unless prohibited by Exhibit I.
(f) The Subservicer shall provide to the Servicer as soon as practicable and will attempt
to provide to the Servicer at least four Business Days (or such fewer Business Days as remain prior
to the applicable foreclosure date) notice of the Subservicers intention to submit a bid for the
purchase of a senior lien. The Subservicer shall comply with the Servicers instructions with
regard to such bid, provided that the Servicer responds prior to the end of such four Business Days
notice period (or such shorter period, if applicable). In the event that the Servicer does not
respond within such period, then the parties agree that the Servicer does not consent to such
action and the Subservicer shall incur no liability for failure to submit a bid. Additionally, as
to any Mortgage Loan that becomes 180 days Delinquent, if the Subservicer, determines that the
expected recovery through foreclosure or other liquidation of the Mortgaged Property will result in
no or a de minimus amount of Liquidation Proceeds, then the Subservicer shall provide the Servicer
at least four Business Days prior notice of the Subservicers intention to charge-off such Mortgage
Loan. In the event that the Servicer does not respond within such period, then the parties agree
that the Servicer consents to such action.
(g) The Subservicer further is hereby authorized and empowered in its own name, when such
Subservicer believes it is appropriate in its best judgment and in accordance with Accepted
Servicing Practices, to cause the removal from the registration of any Mortgage Loan on the MERS®
system and record the related Mortgage in the appropriate jurisdiction. Any expenses incurred in
connection with the actions described in the preceding sentence shall be a Servicing Advance
(h) The Subservicer shall not consent to the placement of any lien on the Mortgaged
Property or any REO Property that would impair the Owners lien position without notifying and
obtaining the written consent of the Servicer.
(i) Exhibit I (Approval Matrix) hereto provides an overview of the actions which may be
taken by the Subservicer under the terms of this Agreement and the corresponding Servicer approval
required for such actions.
(j) Notwithstanding anything contained in this Section 4.2 to the contrary, the
Subservicer shall apply the appropriate loss mitigation treatment as identified in and in
22
compliance with Approval Matrix. Such treatments include, but are not limited to, the HMP
Program. With respect to Mortgage Loans modified under the HMP Program, in the event of any
conflict among the HMP Program, Exhibit I, and/or the Fannie Mae Guidelines, the HMP Program will
govern the servicing, and to the extent not in conflict with the HMP Program, Exhibit I will govern
the servicing. Owner will be given credit for all HMP Owner Payments and the Subservicer will be
given credit for all HMP Servicer Payments; provided, however, the Subservicer shall pay to the
Owner fifty percent (50%) of all Servicer Pay for Success Payments received by the Subservicer
pursuant to the HMP Program through and including January 31, 2012 within sixty (60) days of
receipt thereof.
(k) Prior to pursuing any foreclosure action hereunder with respect to a Mortgage Loan or
if the related Mortgagor files for bankruptcy protection, Subservicer shall (i) if such Mortgage
Loan is registered on the MERS® system, remove the related Mortgage from the MERS system and record
the related Assignment of Mortgage in the name of the Owner in the applicable jurisdiction and (ii)
if such Mortgage Loan is not registered on the MERS® system, record the related Assignment of
Mortgage in the name of the Owner.
Section 4.3 Collection of Mortgage Loan Payments.
Continuously from each Servicing Transfer Date, in accordance with the Accepted Servicing
Practices and this Agreement, the Subservicer shall diligently collect all payments due under each
of the related Mortgage Loans and ascertain and estimate Escrow Payments with respect to escrowed
Mortgage Loans and all other charges that will become due and payable with respect to the Mortgage
Loans and each related Mortgaged Property such that the installments payable by the Mortgagors will
be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become due and payable.
Section 4.4 Notification of Adjustments.
With respect to each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer shall adjust the Mortgage
Interest Rate on the related interest rate adjustment date and shall adjust the Monthly Payment on
the related mortgage payment adjustment date, if applicable, in compliance with the Legal
Requirements and the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note. The Subservicer shall execute and deliver
any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage
Note and Mortgage regarding the Mortgage Interest Rate and Monthly Payment adjustments.
Section 4.5 Duties the Subservicer May Delegate.
(a) Subject to the limitations set forth in Section 4.17(j) below, in the ordinary course
of business, the Subservicer at any time may delegate any of its duties hereunder relating to the
tracking of tax payments and insurance, collections agreements and the listing of REO Properties to
any Person, including any of its Affiliates, who agrees to conduct such duties in accordance with
the servicing standards set forth in Section 4.1 and pursuant to the terms of this Section 4.5.
(b) The Subservicer shall use reasonable efforts to ensure that each such Person retained
to provide any of the delegated services is fully licensed and holds all required
23
governmental licenses, franchises, certificates, qualifications and permits necessary to
provide, and that such Person is reputable and capable of providing, the services for which such
Person is retained. Any such Person shall be retained solely for the Subservicers account and any
servicing fees and compensation payable to the Person shall be at the sole expense of the
Subservicer. The Subservicer shall remain liable to the Owner, Servicer, their successors and
assigns for the performance of the Subservicers duties and obligations under this Agreement,
notwithstanding the delegation of any servicing function pursuant to this Section 4.5.
(c) The Subservicer shall indemnify and hold the Owner, Servicer and Owner Designee
harmless from any and all claims, losses, expenses, costs, fees (including but not limited to
attorney fees) and damages arising out of or relating to the delegation of any of its duties
hereunder except where delegation by the Subservicer was at the request of the Owner or Owner
Designee; provided, however, that this provision shall not protect the Subservicer against any
liability which would be imposed on the Subservicer or any its directors, officers, agents or
employees by reason of the Subservicers willful misconduct, bad faith, negligence or reckless
disregard of its obligations hereunder in following such instructions.
Section 4.6 Servicing Files.
(a) Each Servicing File maintained by the Subservicer for each Mortgage Loan shall be
clearly identified and marked to reflect the Owners ownership of the related Mortgage Loan, shall
be kept in accordance with the Accepted Servicing Practices, and shall contain the following items,
to the extent received by the Subservicer from the Owner or its agent or photocopies or imaged
copies of each:
(i) a copy of the Mortgage Note bearing all intervening endorsements, endorsed
Pay to the order of [Owners Name], without recourse; or in blank and signed in the
name of the previous endorsee by an authorized officer;
(ii) a copy of the Mortgage, with evidence of recording thereon;
(iii) a copy of all assumption, modification, consolidation or extension

(v) a copy of the Title Insurance Policy, or, if not yet issued, evidence of
the title commitment;
(vi) a copy of all intervening Assignments of Mortgage with evidence of
recording thereof unless the applicable Assignment of Mortgage is held by the related
public recording office or is registered on the MERS® system; and
(vii) any other material documents (or copies thereof, as applicable).
24
(b) Notwithstanding any provision herein to the contrary, blanket insurance policies may
be kept by the Subservicer in a separate blanket file and need not be included in each Servicing
File.
(c) Each Servicing File shall also contain the following documents or photocopies thereof,
to the extent received by the Subservicer from the Owner or its agent in connection with the
Subservicers duties under this Agreement:
(i) the Appraisal Report made at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated;
(ii) the settlement statement for the purchase and financing or refinancing of
the Mortgaged Property under the Mortgage Note and Mortgage;
(iii) copies or originals of any tax service contract;
(iv) documentation of all non-HMP modifications to the original Mortgage Loan
Documents;
(v) documentation, including appropriate approval by the Owner, relating to any
releases of any collateral supporting the Mortgage Loan;
(vi) the loan application, any credit reports, verification of employment,
verification of any deposit, and tax returns;
(vii) the originals of all RESPA and Truth in Lending Act disclosure statements
executed by the Mortgagor; and
(viii) all other Mortgage Loan Documents which are customarily maintained in a
Mortgage Loan file in order to properly service a Mortgage Loan.
(d) Foreclosure correspondence, and legal notifications, if applicable, as well as
documentation of all HMP modifications to the original Mortgage Loan Documents, will be provided in
separate electronic files.
(e) Upon discovery by the Subservicer or the Owner or upon the request of the Owner, the
Subservicer will promptly deliver to the Custodian any original Mortgage Loan Document listed in
Section 4.6(a) that comes into the Subservicers possession and shall retain a copy of any such
Mortgage Loan Document in its Servicing File. Notwithstanding the foregoing, with respect to any
document listed in clause (a)(iii) above, (1) within ten (10) Business Days of the execution of any
such assumption, modification, consolidation or extension agreement, Subservicer shall provide a
copy thereof to the Custodian; and (2) within sixty (60) days of the execution of any such
assumption, modification, consolidation or extension agreement, Subservicer shall provide the
original counterpart(s) thereof to the Custodian.
Section 4.7 Imaged Records.
The Subservicer, at its expense, may duplicate or image the Servicing Files on electronic
media, but may not destroy hard copies of the documents required to be maintained in Servicing
25
Files without the Owners prior consent; provided, however, if Subservicer is under no legal,
regulatory, administrative or similar obligation to maintain the original contents of the Servicing
Files in hard format for at least seven (7) years after the last activity on the Mortgage Loan, and
the Owner does not consent to the destruction of such hard copies, the cost and responsibility of
storing such hard copies shall be the cost and responsibility of Owner.
Section 4.8 Enforcement of Due-On-Sale Clause; Assumption.
(a) Upon the transfer of title to the Mortgaged Property, the Subservicer, upon the
earlier of notice or discovery, shall enforce the due-on-sale clause contained in any Mortgage
Loan, unless (i) the Subservicer determines that the enforcement would not be permitted by the
Legal Requirements; provided, however, that the Subservicer shall be entitled to
assume that the Mortgage Note and Mortgage may be enforced in accordance with their respective
terms, (ii) a Mortgage Note assumption rider relates to the Mortgage Loan, or (iii) the applicable
Insurer advises that the enforcement of the due-on-sale clause will jeopardize the Private Mortgage
Insurance coverage, if any, on such Mortgage Loan. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the Subservicer
may, in its reasonable discretion, provide the Mortgagor notice of the Mortgagors breach of the
due-on-sale clause and allow the Mortgagor to cure the breach within thirty (30) days of receipt of
such notice. In all circumstances of unapproved transfer initiated by the Mortgagor, the
Subservicer shall notify the Servicer (which notice may be pursuant to the reports to the Servicer
required by this Agreement) and the Private Mortgage Insurer, if any, of such transfer and obtain
written approval from the Private Mortgage Insurer before initiating enforcement proceedings.
(b) Notwithstanding the preceding paragraph, the Subservicer may also in its discretion
waive the due-on-sale clause on any Mortgage Loan and permit the assumption of such Mortgage Loan,
if the Servicer has approved of the assumption in advance, or if the assumption is required by the
Legal Requirements or by the terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents without Servicers approval.
Upon such approval and the execution by the new Mortgagor of an assumption agreement obligating the
new Mortgagor to all of the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage, the Subservicer may
approve such assumption in accordance with the Servicers approval, the Legal Requirements and the
terms of the Mortgage Loan Documents as applicable. Subsequent to the assumption, the new
mortgagor shall be deemed to be Mortgagor under this Agreement. The Subservicer shall notify the
Servicer of the completion of any approved assumption by the tenth (10th) day of the month
following the month of completion. The Subservicer shall provide to the Custodian the original
assumption agreement.
(c) Subject to the Accepted Servicing Practices, the Subservicer may charge the related
Mortgagor a reasonable and customary assumption fee and retain such fee.
Section 4.9 Insurance.
(a) Subject to reimbursement as a Servicing Advance under the terms of this Agreement, and
subject to the Accepted Servicing Practices, the Subservicer shall cause each Mortgaged Property
and REO Property to be covered at all times by Hazard Insurance in an amount at least equal to the
lesser of (a) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property or (b)
26
the greater of (i) the Stated UPB owing on the Mortgage Loan (or, in the case of an REO
Property, the fair market value of such REO Property) and (ii) an amount such that the proceeds of
such insurance shall be sufficient to avoid the application to the Mortgagor or loss payee of any
coinsurance clause under the policy.. All Hazard Insurance Policies shall be underwritten by an
Insurer that has a current rating that is acceptable under Fannie Mae Guidelines. Subject to
reimbursement under the terms of this Agreement, and subject to the Accepted Servicing Practices,
the Subservicer shall ensure that Flood Insurance is maintained on each Mortgaged Property and REO
Property located in an area that is identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency
Management Agency as having special flood hazards; provided, that Flood Insurance, as described
below, is available on commercially reasonable terms. The Flood Insurance Policy shall be in an
amount representing coverage not less than the least of (A) the replacement value of the
improvements that are part of the Mortgaged Property, (B) the Stated Principal Balance of the
Mortgage Loan, or (C) the maximum amount of insurance available under the available under the Flood
Disaster Protection Act of 1973. All Flood Insurance Policies shall be underwritten by a federal
government agency or by an Insurer that satisfies Fannie Mae Guidelines regarding the rating of the
Insurer or the guarantee of the Insurers policies by the National Flood Insurance Program.
Additionally, if a Mortgaged Property or REO Property that is not identified by the Federal
Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards becomes so identified in the Federal
Register, within a reasonable period of time after such identification, the Subservicer shall
arrange for Flood Insurance to be obtained on the Mortgaged Property or REO Property in accordance
with this Section 4.9. All such policies shall be endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with
loss payable to the Subservicer and shall provide for at least thirty (30) days prior written
notice of any cancellation, reduction in the amount of or material change in coverage to the
Subservicer. The Subservicer shall not interfere with the Mortgagors freedom of choice in
selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, provided, however, that the
Subservicer shall not accept any such insurance policies from insurance companies unless such
companies are acceptable under the Fannie Mae Guidelines and are licensed to do business in the
state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located.
(b) In the event that the Subservicer shall obtain and maintain, at its own expense, a
blanket policy issued by an insurer that is acceptable under the Fannie Mae Guidelines (a
Qualified Insurer) insuring against fire and hazard losses on all of the REO Properties,
then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to the amount required
pursuant Section 4.9(a) and otherwise complies with all other requirements of Section
4.9(a), it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied its obligations as set forth in
Section 4.9(a). It is further understood and agreed that such policy may contain a deductible
clause, in which case the Subservicer shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained
on the related escrowed Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with Section 4.9(a),
and there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy, deposit in the P & I
Custodial Account the amount not otherwise payable under the blanket policy because of such
deductible clause without reimbursement therefor (and such amount shall be deemed Insurance
Proceeds). Upon request of the Servicer, the Subservicer shall cause to be delivered to the
Servicer 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 (30) days prior
written notice to the Servicer.
27
(c) The Subservicer shall prepare and present on behalf of the Owner all claims under the
Insurance Policies and take such actions (including the negotiation, settlement, compromise or
enforcement of the insureds claim) as shall be reasonably necessary to realize recovery under the
Insurance Policies. Any proceeds disbursed to the Subservicer in respect of such Insurance Policies
(other than amounts applied to the restoration and repair of the related Mortgaged Property or to
be released to the related Mortgagor in accordance with the Subservicers normal servicing
procedures) shall be promptly deposited in the P & I Custodial Account or the applicable T & I
Escrow Account, as appropriate.
(d) Subservicer may engage one or more insurance claim adjustors for the purpose of
negotiating, settling, compromising, enforcing and otherwise managing insurance claims related to
the Mortgage Loans and the REO Properties. In such event, Owner agrees to be responsible for all
such fees.
Section 4.10 Insurance Notices.
The Owner shall arrange, or shall cause its Owner Designee to arrange, for all insurance
drafts, notices, policies, invoices, and similar documents to be delivered directly to the
Subservicer, to the extent permitted under the Insurance Policies and Legal Requirements.
Section 4.11 Tax and Flood Contracts.
With respect to each First Lien Mortgage Loan designated by Servicer, the Subservicer shall
provide such real estate tax processing, delinquent tax control, tax status determination, and with
respect to any first or junior lien, flood status determination, monitoring of flood insurance and
customer support services (collectively the Tax and Flood Services) as the Subservicer
typically provides for other escrowed and non-escrowed mortgage loans that it services. The
purchase or transfer fees associated with the Tax and Flood Services shall be reimbursed by the
Owner to the Subservicer as Pass-Through Expenses in accordance with this Agreement. If the tax or
flood data supplied to Subservicer has been prepared by a provider other than Subservicers primary
Tax or Flood Services provider (as listed on Exhibit F hereto), any transfer fees assessed shall be
reimbursed by the Owner to the Subservicer as Pass-Through Expenses in accordance with this
Agreement. The Subservicer shall request that the prior servicer, if any, provide Tax and Flood
Services agreements and information with respect to each Mortgage Loan prior to procuring any new
Tax and Flood Services. If such agreements and information are not provided by the Servicer or the
prior servicer within fifteen (15) days the Servicing Transfer Date, then a tax and/or flood
contract (as applicable) will be purchased by Subservicer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the
Subservicer shall have no obligation to obtain tax service contracts with respect to second lien
Mortgage Loans.
Section 4.12 Tax and Insurance Accounts; Tax Service.
(a) All T & I Escrow Accounts shall be established and maintained in accordance with the
Mortgage Loan Documents and Legal Requirements for those Mortgage Loans that provide for or
otherwise require Escrow Payments. The Subservicer shall reflect in the Tax and Insurance Account
the Escrow funds collected from the Mortgagor and deposited into the applicable T & I Escrow
Account for the payment of real estate taxes, ground rents,
28
Private Mortgage Insurance, Hazard Insurance and, if applicable, Flood Insurance premiums,
assessments and other charges. If Escrow funds are being collected when the Owner transfers
servicing of the Mortgage Loan to the Subservicer, the Subservicer must establish a T & I Escrow
Account (either a separate account or a sub account) for such Mortgage Loan and continue to collect
1/12 of the yearly charge for Escrow with each Monthly Payment. If a Mortgagors Escrow funds are
insufficient to pay taxes, insurance premiums or other escrowed items, the Subservicer shall timely
advance to the T & I Escrow Account from its own funds an amount sufficient to cover the shortage
and reflect such advance in the Mortgagors Tax and Insurance Account (a T & I Advance).
Whenever possible, these T & I Advances shall be recovered from the Mortgagors subsequent monthly
Escrow Payments, Insurance Proceeds or Liquidation Proceeds with respect to such Mortgagors
Mortgage Loan, pursuant to Section 6.4(b). Insurance premiums that are not Escrow items but that
are collected and disbursed for payment, such as life, major medical, disability or other
assessments not required as part of the Mortgagors monthly installments, should not be reflected
in the Mortgagors Tax and Insurance Reserve. The Subservicer shall comply with all applicable
Legal Requirements in connection with Escrow items, the analysis of the Mortgagors T & I Escrow
Account and any reports to the Mortgagor related thereto. Without limiting the foregoing, the
Subservicer shall comply with all requirements concerning the handling of escrow accounts contained
in the federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act of 1974, as amended, and all regulations
promulgated thereunder.
(b) As outlined in Exhibit I, for any First Lien Mortgage Loan that is a non-escrowed
loan, in the event that any real estate taxes or assessments in connection with a Mortgage Loan are
or become delinquent, then the Subservicer shall effect payment thereof as appropriate and prior to
the related tax sale foreclosure date, and any such payment shall be reimbursable as a Servicing
Advance under the terms of this Agreement. The Subservicer shall pay, on behalf of the related
Mortgagor, any penalties, fines, similar charges or interest resulting from such delinquency, and
shall be entitled to reimbursement for any such penalties, fines, similar charges or interest that
it may incur as Servicing Advances under the terms of this Agreement. Additionally, in the event
that any Mortgagor fails to provide Subservicer with reasonable proof of hazard insurance in
connection with a Mortgage Loan, the Subservicer shall promptly provide such insurance coverage
until such time as the Mortgagor submits reasonable proof of Mortgagors own coverage. Any such
payment of hazard insurance by Subservicer shall be reimbursable as a Servicing Advance under the
terms of this Agreement.
(c) For any Mortgage Loan with an established escrow account, in the event that any real
estate taxes or assessments in connection with a Mortgage Loan are or become delinquent, then the
Subservicer shall effect payment thereof as soon as reasonably possible and any such payment shall
be reimbursable as a Servicing Advance under the terms of this Agreement. The Subservicer shall
pay, on behalf of the related Mortgagor, any penalties, fines, or other charges or interest
resulting from such delinquency and shall be entitled to reimbursement from the Owner as
Pass-Through Expenses, for any such expenses that it may incur, so long as such delinquency was
within thirty (30) days after the Servicing Transfer Date. Any such fines, penalties, or other
charges or interest incurred pursuant to this subsection after thirty (30) days following the
Servicing Transfer Date shall be the responsibility of the Subservicer.
29
(d) In the event that a Mortgaged Property has outstanding tax delinquencies prior to the
Servicing Transfer Date that were not reported by either a prior servicer or a prior tax service to
the Subservicer, the Subservicer shall not be liable for a Mortgaged Property lost to a tax sale
for a delinquency occurring prior to the Servicing Transfer Date; provided, however, that the
Subservicer shall take all reasonable actions required to cure such tax delinquency in accordance
with Accepted Servicing Practices and/or the reasonable instructions of the Servicer. If the
Subservicer obtains prior year delinquency information from a prior servicer and/or owner, the
Subservicer may find it necessary to perform a prior delinquency search in order to adequately
service such loan. Subject to notice and prior approval by the Servicer, the cost of such search
shall be reimbursed by the Owner to the Subservicer as a Pass-Through Expense.
Section 4.13 Superior Liens.
(a) With respect to each Mortgage Loan secured by a second lien on the related Mortgaged
Property that is not registered with MERS®, the Subservicer shall, upon the Servicers request, for
the protection of the Owners interest, file (or cause to be filed) of record a request for notice
of any action by a superior lien holder in cases in which (i) applicable state law does not require
that a junior lien holder be named as a party defendant in foreclosure proceedings in order to
foreclose such junior lien holders equity of redemption, and (ii) local law provides for such a
notice to junior lien holders. The Subservicer shall, upon the Servicers request, also notify any
superior lien holder 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 lien holder. Costs and expenses of Subservicer, if any, in performing the foregoing shall
be paid by the Subservicer and reimbursed by the Owner as Pass-Through Expenses in accordance with
this Agreement.
(b) If the Subservicer is notified that any superior lien holder 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 Subservicer
shall take such actions as are consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices to protect the
interests of the Owner, and/or to preserve the security of the related Mortgage Loan. Subject to
Servicers prior written approval, the Subservicer may make a Servicing Advance of the funds
necessary to cure the default or reinstate the superior lien, if the Subservicer determines that
such Servicing Advance would satisfy the standard set forth in Section 4.2(c) hereof and would
ultimately be recoverable in full from the net proceeds likely to be realized from such Mortgage
Loan, including the related Mortgaged Property. The Subservicer shall thereafter take such action
as Subservicer determines is commercially reasonable to recover any such Servicing Advance or as
otherwise provided pursuant to this Agreement.
Section 4.14 Bankruptcies.
The Subservicer will represent the Owners interest in any bankruptcy proceedings relating to
the Mortgagor and follow the procedures set forth in Section 4.2(k) hereof. The associated costs
of protecting the Owners interest in bankruptcy shall be paid as Servicing Advances in accordance
with this Agreement. If the Mortgagor, a creditor, or a bankruptcy trustee proposes to reduce the
unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Note, reduce the
30
Mortgage Interest Rate, or otherwise modify a Mortgagors obligations under a Mortgage Loan,
the Subservicer shall use reasonable efforts to challenge any such modification on a timely basis
if a commercially reasonable and valid legal basis exists for such challenge, unless the Owner
agrees to such reduction. Subservicer shall provide notice as provided in Exhibit I to Owner of
any reduction in unpaid principal balance prior to this reduction and obtain written approval of
Owner for the reduction.
Section 4.15 Foreclosure Procedures.
(a) In conjunction with loss mitigation efforts provided for in Exhibit I, in the event
that any payment(s) due under any Mortgage Loan remains delinquent and Subservicer determines that
such payment(s) are unlikely to be collected from the Mortgagor, the Subservicer shall order one or
more Valuations or property inspections with respect to the related Mortgaged Property, and may
commence foreclosure proceedings in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices. In such
connection, the Subservicer shall from its own funds, subject to reimbursement pursuant to Section
6.3, make all necessary and proper Servicing Advances; provided, however, that the Subservicer
shall have no obligation to advance any amount that the Subservicer determines is likely to be a
Non-Recoverable Servicing Advance.
(b) As provided for in Exhibit I, the Subservicer shall initiate, carry out, complete or
perform any foreclosure proceeding in the name of the Owner or Owner Designee. Immediately prior to
the initiation of foreclosure of any Mortgage Loan by the Subservicer under this Agreement, the
Subservicer shall perform all actions necessary to transfer ownership of such Mortgage Loan to
Owner or Owner Designee.
(c) In connection with a foreclosure or other conversion, the Subservicer shall exercise
such rights and powers vested in it hereunder and use the same degree of care and skill in its
exercise as prudent mortgage servicers would exercise or use under the circumstances in the conduct
of their own affairs and consistent with Accepted Servicing Practices with respect to mortgage
loans in foreclosure or similar proceedings. In the event that foreclosure results in a deficiency
and applicable law permits, the Subservicer shall continue to perform collection services in
accordance with a receivable collection agreement to be negotiated with the Owner.
(d) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, in connection
with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure, in the event the Subservicer has
notice or knowledge that a Mortgaged Property has a Negative Environmental Condition or is
otherwise contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes, or if the Servicer otherwise
requests, an environmental inspection or review of such Mortgage Property conducted by a qualified
inspector shall be arranged for by the Subservicer. Upon completion of the inspection, the
Subservicer shall promptly provide the Servicer with a written report of environmental inspection.
All costs incurred by the Subservicer pursuant to this paragraph shall constitute Servicing
Advances.
(e) In the event the environmental inspection report indicates that the Mortgaged Property
has a Negative Environmental Condition or is otherwise contaminated by hazardous or toxic
substances or wastes, the Subservicer (i) shall promptly notify the Servicer and (ii) shall not
proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure if the
31
estimated costs of the environmental clean up, as estimated in the environmental inspection
report, together with the Servicing Advances made by the Subservicer and the estimated costs of
foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure exceeds the estimated value of the
Mortgaged Property based on a Valuation obtained by the Subservicer at such time. If, however, the
aggregate of such clean up and foreclosure costs and Servicing Advances is less than the estimated
value of the Mortgaged Property, then the Subservicer shall, in its reasonable judgment and in
accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, proceed with foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in
lieu of foreclosure and the Subservicer shall be reimbursed for all reasonable costs associated
with such foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure and any related environmental
clean up costs, as applicable. In the event the Subservicer does not proceed with foreclosure or
acceptance of a deed in lieu of foreclosure pursuant to the first sentence of this paragraph, the
Subservicer shall be reimbursed for all Servicing Advances and the Subservicer shall have no
further obligation to service such Mortgage Loan under the provisions of this Agreement.
Section 4.16 Reinstatement of Mortgage Loans.
If the Mortgagor offers full reinstatement of the Mortgage Loan during the foreclosure
process, the Subservicer shall accept the offer. Full reinstatement means: (i) payment of all
amounts due in order to bring the Mortgage Loan current, including attorneys and trustees fees,
any additional legal costs and any other expenditures or advances made by the Subservicer during
the foreclosure process, and (ii) payments of all other amounts necessary to cure all other
defaults under the Mortgage Loan Documents, including, without limitation, the payment of real
property taxes due and owing. Upon accepting the reinstatement, the Subservicer will contact the
attorney or trustee promptly to avoid incurring additional legal costs or fees. The Subservicer
will apply the funds upon receipt. If the Mortgage Note and other Mortgage Loan related documents

thereof for distribution on the next Remittance Date.
(e) The Subservicer shall cause each REO Property to be inspected promptly upon the

the proper operation, management and maintenance of the REO Property, including the cost of
maintaining any hazard insurance pursuant to Section 4.9 hereof and the fees of any managing agent
acting on behalf of the Subservicer.
(j) In accordance with, and subject to the limitations of, Sections 4.5 and 4.17(j), the
Subservicer may outsource the management, conservation, protection and operation of REO Property to
a third party, which arrangement will result in fees to the Owner, provided that Subservicer shall
seek written approval of Servicer of the third party and such fees to be charged. Such reasonable
fees would be reimbursable to the Servicer as Servicing Advances. Home Select Settlement Solutions,

Section 4.18 Satisfactions.
The Subservicer is hereby authorized and empowered to execute and deliver on behalf of itself
and the Owner all instruments of satisfaction or of partial or full release and all other
comparable instruments with respect to the Mortgage Loans and Mortgaged Properties. The

timely manner. Once the required release or satisfaction documents are executed and recorded, if
applicable, and the Mortgage Note is canceled, the Subservicer shall promptly send the canceled
documents to the Mortgagor if state law requires such action or the Mortgagor specifically requests
the return of the documents. In other instances, the Subservicer may either return the documents
to the Mortgagor or retain them (as long as they are not destroyed until after the retention period
required by applicable law). The Subservicer should also take any other steps required to release
the lien and assure that no penalties are incurred because the actions were not performed in a
timely manner. The Subservicer may not seek reimbursement from the Owner or the Mortgagor for any
penalty fee that the Subservicer has to pay because the Subservicer failed to process any release
or satisfaction documents within the required time frame. If the Owner, its designee, or the
Custodian fails to do so, the Subservicer may seek reimbursement from the Owner for any penalty
that the Subservicer pays because the release or satisfaction was not processed in the required
time frame as a result of Owners failure, its designees failure or the Custodians failure to act
in a timely manner as a Servicing Advance under the terms of this Agreement. The Subservicer shall
generally follow the procedures set forth in the Fannie Mae Guidelines regarding satisfactions of
mortgages.

provision to the contrary herein, including without limitation that any Servicing Advance is
subsequently determined to be non-recoverable, the
34
Subservicer shall be entitled to recover any Servicing Advance and any Pass-Through Expenses
in accordance with the terms of Section 6.3 and Section 6.4(b)(iii).
(b) The Subservicer shall provide and maintain appropriate procedures to ensure that each
individual Servicing Advance and Pass-Through Expense is accounted for as a single item and amount
without any duplication thereof.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained herein, if at the end of any
calendar month, the amount of unreimbursed Servicing Advances (excluding Non-recoverable Servicing
advances) and unreimbursed HELOC draws exceed the aggregate amount collected by the Subservicer
during such calendar month in accordance with the provisions of this Agreement, the Subservicer
shall so notify the Servicer and the Owner shall remit the total amount of such shortfall plus
accrued interest at the rate of LIBOR plus four percent (4%) to the Subservicer for each calendar
day after the end of the calendar month until the day the payment is made, which shall be within
seven (7) days of such notification. If the Owner fails to pay to the Subservicer the amount of
any such shortfall within thirty (30) days of the related notification by the Subservicer to the
Owner of such shortfall, such failure shall constitute an Event of Default under Section 9.1(k).

37
any prepayment penalties, Late Fees, or other fees or items which are prohibited under
applicable law for that Mortgage Loan. In addition, as long permissible under Exhibit I, the

receivership or other similar laws relating to creditors rights or (2) due to acceleration in
connection with a foreclosure or other involuntary payment or (ii) such waiver relates to a default
or a reasonably foreseeable default and would, in the reasonable judgment of the Subservicer,
maximize recovery of total proceeds taking into account the value of such fees and the related
Mortgage Loan.
(b) Upon transfer of servicing of a Mortgage Loan to the Subservicer, if the servicing
transfer tape or data provided to the Subservicer indicates that such Mortgage Loan has a
prepayment penalty, then the Subservicer shall flag its system to indicate that a prepayment
penalty is applicable with respect to such Mortgage Loan.
(c) Except as provided in this Section 4.21, in no event will the Subservicer waive a
prepayment penalty in connection with a refinancing of a Mortgage Loan that is not related to a
default or a reasonably foreseeable default without Servicers written approval. If the

Principal Prepayment in full or in part due to any action or omission of the Subservicer, other
than as permitted above, the Subservicer shall deposit from its own funds without any right of
reimbursement therefore the amount of such prepayment penalty (or such portion thereof as had been
waived for deposit) in the P & I Custodial Account for distribution in accordance with the terms of
this Agreement.

The Subservicer need not obtain the approval of the Servicer prior to releasing any Insurance

funds, money, documents and papers relating to the Mortgage Loans. The Subservicer Bond shall be
in the form of the Mortgage Bankers Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Subservicer
against losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement, misrepresentation and fraud. The errors
and omissions insurance policy shall protect and insure the Subservicer against losses due to
errors and omissions and negligent acts of such Persons. Such errors and omissions insurance
policy shall also protect and insure the Subservicer 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 Section 4.23 requiring the Subservicer Bond and errors and omissions
insurance policy shall diminish or relieve the Subservicer 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 MBS Selling and
Servicing Guide. Upon request of the Servicer, the Subservicer shall cause to be delivered to the
Owner a certified true copy of the Subservicer Bond and errors and omissions insurance policy and a
statement from the surety and the insurer that such Subservicer Bond and errors and omissions
insurance policy shall in no event be terminated or materially modified without thirty (30) days
prior written notice to the Servicer.

hour of an event occurring that will likely result in service interruption in excess of forty-eight
(48) hours. Following such a communication, Subservicer will provide updates on an hourly basis as

reconstructed in the event of loss or destruction of Owners processing files at Subservicers
location.

To the extent any Mortgage Loan is discovered to be a High Cost Loan, the Subservicer shall
continue to service such High Cost Loan provided that the unpaid principal balance of all High Cost
Loans that the Subservicer is subservicing under this Agreement with Owner, as of any date of
determination, is not more than five million ($5,000,000) dollars (or such other amount as mutually
agreed upon by the Subservicer and the Owner); provided that, in the event the addition of any High
Cost Loan(s) results in the unpaid principal balance of all High Cost Loans that the Subservicer is
servicing pursuant to this Agreement with Owner, as of such date of determination, becomes greater

Subservicer and the Owner), the Subservicer shall promptly notify the Owner of such event and shall
service transfer one or more High Cost Loans within one-hundred eighty (180) calendars days of

transaction and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax analyses) that are
provided to it relating to such tax treatment and tax structure.
(b) Except as otherwise set forth herein, the Subservicer agrees that it shall not refer to or
use the Owners name or any derivation or significant portion of such name in any manner in any of
its servicing, enforcement or collection activities with respect to any Mortgage Loan or in any
advertising, printed material, electronic medium or other medium, without first obtaining the named
partys prior written consent, except to the extent that it is appropriate for the Subservicer to
do so in working with legal counsel, auditors, taxing authorities, or other governmental agencies,
insurance carriers, any property inspector, or other person necessary to fulfill the Subservicers
obligations hereunder. The Subservicer shall inform its subservicers, contractors, advisors and
agents of the restriction stated in this subparagraph (b) and shall take commercially reasonable
steps to cause such parties to conduct their activities relating to the Mortgage Loans and REO
Properties in compliance herewith. Except as required hereunder, no such named party shall have
any obligation to give any such written consent and may withhold the same in its sole and absolute
discretion.
(c) All information of a non-public nature disclosed by Owner to Subservicer during the term
of this Agreement (Owner Proprietary Information) (1) shall be deemed the property of Owner, (2)
shall be used solely for the purposes of administering and otherwise implementing the terms of this
Agreement, and (3) shall be protected by Subservicer in accordance with the terms of this Article
X. Owners Proprietary Information shall also include all non-public personal information as
defined in Title V of the Gramm-Leach-Bliley Act (15 U.S. C. Section 6801, et seq.) and the
implementing regulations thereunder (collectively, the GLB Act), as the same may be amended from
time to time, that Subservicer received from or at the direction of Owner and that concerns any of
Owners customers and/or consumers (as defined in the GLB Act). Subservicer acknowledges that
any Owner Proprietary Information being stored or processed by Subservicer is and shall remain the
sole property of Owner and will take all such reasonable measures as may be necessary to protect
the confidentiality of Owner Proprietary Information which comes into Subservicer possession, if
any. Subservicer further agrees to observe complete confidentiality regarding all aspects of Owner
Proprietary Information, including without limitation agreeing not to disclose or otherwise permit
any other person or entity access to, in any manner, Owner Proprietary Information or any part
thereof without Owners prior written consent, except that such disclosure or access shall be
permitted to an employee of Subservicer requiring such access in the course of employment or a
subcontractor of Subservicer. Subservicer shall not disclose or use Owner Proprietary Information
for any purposes other than to carry out the purposes for which Owner disclosed the data to
Subservicer, or as permitted by this Agreement. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Owner consents to
the use by Subservicer of statistical data generated by Owner Proprietary Information provided that
such use shall not result in the disclosure of Owner Proprietary Information which will directly or
indirectly identify Owner or any specific individual. At the request of Owner, and upon payment to
Subservicer of all undisputed monies due under the terms of this Agreement, Subservicer shall
transfer any Owner Proprietary Information held by Subservicer to Owner. Upon termination of this
Agreement, Subservicers rights to use or access Owner
55
Proprietary Information shall end immediately. In the event that Subservicer does not
immediately return such Owner Proprietary Information to Owner, Subservicer agrees it will not
access or use such Owner Proprietary Information in any manner and shall maintain such Owner
Proprietary Information in a secure manner until its return to Owner. In the event that Owner
desires for Subservicer to perform year-end IRS reporting or other services following deconversion
from Subservicers system, Owner shall provide a written request for such services prior to the
last week of deconversion activities. In such case, Owner acknowledges that Subservicer will
retain a set of Owners Proprietary Information in order to perform such services. To the extent
that Owner desires that Subservicer not retain Owners Proprietary Information in its secured,
archived environment in accordance with its data retention policies, upon 1) written notice and
instruction by Owner, 2) Subservicers receipt of all monies owed by Owner to Subservicer, and 3)
Owners return of all Subservicer Proprietary Information to Subservicer, Subservicer shall destroy
Owners Proprietary Information. Subservicer shall provide written certification of destruction
within thirty (30) days following completion of such destruction. Owner shall be responsible for
any regulatory or other concerns regarding retention of Owner Proprietary Information.
(d) Subservicer presently maintains and will continue to maintain information security
programs and measures designed to safeguard the security and confidentiality of Owner Proprietary
Information. Such security programs and measures are and will be designed to identify and protect
against reasonably foreseeable risks to (1) the security and confidentiality of Owner Proprietary
Information, (2) the integrity of such information, and (3) unauthorized access to or use of such
information that might result in substantial harm or inconvenience to any customer or consumer of
Owner. Subservicer agrees to (1) periodically test the efficacy and appropriateness of such
information security programs and (2) take reasonable measures to be able to detect and respond to
security breaches, including widely known potential security failures that have been experienced by
its vendors or others in the industry.
(e) Subservicer will use commercially reasonable efforts to adhere to such additional security
measures with respect to Owners Proprietary Information as may be reasonably imposed by Owner.
(f) Subservicer also agrees to notify Owner, immediately following discovery, if any Owner
Proprietary Information was, or is reasonably believed to have been, acquired by an unauthorized
person. Notification required by this section may be delayed if a law enforcement agency
determines that the notification of Owner will impede a criminal investigation. In such case,
Subservicer shall notify Owner immediately after Subservicer has been notified that the law
enforcement agency determines that it will not compromise the investigation. In the event of any
such breach of security or unauthorized access, Subservicer agrees to use highest commercially
reasonable efforts to cooperate with Owner to minimize the consequences of such security breach for
Owners customers, and to provide all necessary information reasonably requested by Owners state
and federal regulators.
(g) Subservicer agrees to comply with any further notification requirements imposed from time
to time by state and federal regulators with jurisdiction over the use of, and/or security relating
to Owners Proprietary Information. Subject to the limitations of liability set forth in any other
part of this Agreement, Subservicer expressly agrees that it will be
56
responsible for all reasonable costs and expenses related to (i) an investigation and
resolution of unauthorized access to Owner Proprietary Information while in Subservicers
possession and (ii) notification of Owners customers affected by unauthorized access to such Owner
Proprietary Information, in the event such notification is required by state or federal law or by
Owners state and federal regulators.
(h) Subservicer agrees to annually provide Owner with a written report assessing its
vulnerability or potential vulnerability to security breaches, loss of data integrity, and threats
to confidentiality.
(i) Subservicer may disclose Owner Proprietary Information to third parties only after
providing Owner with reasonable prior written notice (unless such notice is prohibited by law):
|
a) |
|
to comply with a properly authorized civil, criminal, or regulatory
investigation, subpoena or summons by Federal, State or local authorities; or |
|
|
b) |
|
to respond to judicial process or government regulatory authorities having
jurisdiction over it for examination, compliance or other purposes. |
Upon receipt of such notice, Owner may seek an appropriate protective order. Subservicer
shall use reasonable efforts to cooperate with Owner, at Owners sole cost, to pursue an
appropriate protective order. It is further agreed that, if, in the absence of a protective order,
Subservicer is legally compelled to disclose Owner Proprietary Information, Subservicer shall make
commercially reasonable efforts to disclose only such portions of Owner Proprietary Information
that are legally required to be disclosed. Except as set forth in this Section 10.1, Subservicer
may disclose Owner Proprietary Information to third parties for any other purpose permitted by law,
only after receiving prior written consent from Owner.
(j) The parties acknowledge that this Agreement contains confidential information that may be
considered proprietary by one or both of the parties, and agree to limit distribution of this
Agreement to those individuals with a need to know the contents of this Agreement. In no event may
this Agreement be reproduced or copies shown to any third parties (exclusive of contractors,
subcontractors and agents who have a need for it) without the prior written consent of the other
party, except as may be necessary by reason of legal, accounting, tax or regulatory requirements,
in which event Owner and Subservicer agree to exercise reasonable diligence in limiting such
disclosure to the minimum necessary under the particular circumstances. The parties further agree
to seek commercial confidential status for this Agreement with any regulatory commission with which
this Agreement must be filed, to the extent such a designation can be secured. Notwithstanding
anything to the contrary in this Agreement, the Owner and its affiliates are allowed to disclose
the Agreement as necessary to comply with any subpoena, order, regulation, ruling or request of any
judicial, administrative or legislative body or committee or any self-regulatory body (including
any securities body), including the filing of a Form 8-K with the Securities and Exchange
Commission (with a copy of the Agreement) if they believe (in their sole discretion) that such a
filing is necessary or appropriate; provided, however, in connection with any such filing the Owner
and its affiliates shall request confidential treatment with respect to the pricing information set
forth in Exhibit D of this Agreement.
57
(k) In addition, each party agrees to give notice to the other party of any demands to
disclose or provide the Proprietary Information received from the other or any third party under
lawful process prior to disclosing or furnishing Proprietary Information, and agrees to cooperate
in seeking reasonable protective arrangements requested by the other party.

The Nationstar
network is
protected by a
single Nokia
Checkpoint firewall
and configured with
2 zones, core and
external DMZ. A
project is in place
to create an
additional DMZ zone
to house the
ecommerce
application
servers. The plan
is to utilize the
existing firewall
for the new zone in
addition to the
current zone in
place. Completion
is scheduled for
end of January
2011. While this
offers greater
protection and
controls than
currently in place,
a vulnerability
exploit in the
Nokia Checkpoint
would expose
Nationstar to data
compromise within
both DMZs and the
core. |
|
A second firewall from another vendor should be implemented to
strengthen protection of sensitive data. |

However, Subservicer should use good business judgment when paying delinquent taxes on loans
that are not Escrowed for Taxes. For example, if the delinquent taxes are given to a private
company to collect with a high interest rate, it would be prudent to go ahead and pay those taxes
even though they might not go to a Tax Sale. Would want to look at value of property and Balance
as well.
Subservicer will set up an Escrow Account so Advance can be repaid over 12 months. |
