In performing such review, the Supervisory Servicer may rely upon the purported genuineness and due execution of any such document and on the purported genuineness of any signature thereon. If at any time the Trustee finds any document or documents constituting a part of a Trustee Loan File to be defective, or to be unrelated to the Loans identified on the Loan Schedule, the Trustee shall promptly so notify the Noteholders, the Issuer, the Servicer, the Rating Agency, PMCT and PMC, and the Trustee, as assignee under the TRUST INDENTURE - Page 9 Contribution Agreement, shall make written demand upon PMC or PMCT, as applicable, to comply with its obligation under Section 8 of the Contribution Agreement and shall send copies of such written demand to the Noteholders, the Issuer, the Servicer and the Rating Agency.

If any Co-Trustee shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all of its estates, properties, rights, remedies and trusts shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee, to the extent permitted by law, without the appointment of a new or successor Trustee.

Should any instrument in writing from the Issuer be required by the separate or Co-Trustee so appointed by the Trustee for more fully and certainly vesting in and confirming to him or it such properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations, any and all such instruments in writing shall, on request, be executed, acknowledged and delivered by the Issuer. In case any separate or Co-Trustee, or a successor to either, shall die, become incapable of acting, resign or be removed, all the estates, properties, rights, powers, trusts, duties and obligations of such separate or Co-Trustee, so far as permitted by law, shall vest in and be exercised by the Trustee until the appointment of a new Trustee or successor to such separate or Co-Trustee.
