                   otherwise in accordance with the terms of
1122(d)(1)(iv)     the transaction agreements.

                   Cash Collection and Administration

                   Payments on [pool assets] are deposited       X
                   into the appropriate custodial bank
                   accounts and related bank clearing

1 SPS outsources a portion of the servicing criteria to Vendors and the Company has elected to take
responsibility for assessing such Vendors' compliance with the servicing criteria.

2 As of June 30, 2011 the vendor ceased performing its responsibilities with respect to criterion
1122(d)(2)(vii) and therefore the activities related to this criterion are only applicable to the vendor for the
period from January 1, 2011 to June 30, 2011. For the period from July 1, 2011 to December 31, 2011
the Company fully performed all activities and responsibilities related to criterion 1122(d)(2)(vii).
