1. The Motion is GRANTED as set forth herein.

2. Pursuant to 11 U.S.C. §§ 105, 363, and 554, the Trust’s ownership interests in the
Records shall be and hereby is abandoned, and the Trust and the Trustee shall have no further responsibility or obligations with respect to the Records, except as provided for in paragraphs 3 and 4 herein. Subject to the provisions of paragraph 3 & 4 herein, the Trustee is authorized to destroy any and all Records at a time and in a sequence to be determined by the Trustee in his sole discretion, provided, however, the Trustee shall not commence the destruction of any of the following until June 30, 2016: (i) hard copy Loan Files, (ii) the On-Site Computer Equipment, and (iii) the hard copy Non-Mortgage Loan Business Files for the years 2004-2007 that consist of Broker records, Compliance records, Executive records, Internal Audit records, Legal records, Policy & Procedures records, Mortgage Loan Operations records, and Secondary Marketing records, as identified on Exhibit A to the Motion.

3. No later than June 30, 2016, the Subpoena Objectors shall identify those
documents categories of documents, or sources that they believe contain materials relevant to their pending litigation and necessary to comply with or otherwise satisfy the Subpoena Objectors’ outstanding subpoenas (the “Requested Documents”). For all productions of the Requested Documents, the Trust may provide a cost estimate for production of the Requested Documents or make Requested Documents available to the Subpoena Objectors for inspection and copying. Within 10 days after receipt of a cost estimate, the Subpoena Objectors shall agree to pay such costs in advance, narrow the scope of the Requested Documents, or otherwise respond to the Trust’s cost estimate. The Trust reserves the right to object to any and all such requests on any grounds, including, without limitation, that the Trust lacks the capabilities to respond to such requests and/or produce the Requested Documents or that the parties cannot agree on the cost estimate or the need to narrow the scope of the Requested Documents. In the event the Trust objects to such requests and the parties are unable to resolve such objection consensually, either party may request a telephonic status conference with this Court to resolve the objection pursuant to Fed. R. Bankr. P. 9016 at this Court’s convenience.

4. After June 30, 2016, only the Requested Documents shall continue to be
preserved by the Trust; provided, however, that the Trust may destroy any and all Requested Documents upon the earlier of (i) the date on which the Requested Documents have been produced to the applicable Subpoena Objector(s), and (ii) 60 days after the Trust provides the applicable Subpoena Objector(s) access to the Requested Documents to copy or otherwise take production of the Requested Documents.
