Buyer as follows:
1. The Seller is an organization as set forth in the introductory
paragraph of this Agreement and is duly organized, validly existing and in good
standing under the laws of the state of its incorporation, and is duly qualified
as a foreign corporation in all jurisdictions wherein the character of the

qualification as a foreign corporation necessary.

the performance by the Seller of the obligations to be performed by it hereunder
have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate or other similar action.
Prior to the first Settlement Date, the Seller shall deliver to the Buyer

states in which Seller is registered to do business.
3. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller and
the performance by the Seller of the obligations to be performed by it hereunder
do not, and will not, violate any provision of any law, rule, regulation, order,
writ, judgment, injunction, decree, determination or award presently in effect
having applicability to the Seller or to the charter or bylaws of the Seller.
All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgages, whether as mortgagee,

with all applicable licensing requirements of the federal, state, and local
government wherein the Subject Property is located.
4. The execution and delivery of this Agreement by the Seller and

5. This Agreement constitutes, when duly executed and delivered by

remedies.
6. There are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the
knowledge of the Seller, threatened against or affecting the Seller or the
properties of the Seller before any court or governmental department,
commission, board, bureau, agency or instrumentality, domestic or foreign,
which, if determined adversely to the Seller, would have a material adverse
effect on the financial condition, properties or operation of the Seller. Any
consent by the Buyer to purchase Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall
automatically terminate if: (a)-a decree or order of a court or agency
supervisory authority having jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator
or receiver or liquidator in any insolvency, readjustment of debt, marshalling
of assets and liabilities, bankruptcy proceeding or any similar proceedings, or
for the winding up or liquidation of its affairs, shall have been entered

(B) REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES OF THE SELLER AS TO EACH LOAN. It is
understood and agreed by Seller and Buyer that as a material inducement to Buyer
to enter into this Agreement the Seller hereby represents and warrants to the
Buyer as of each Settlement Date with respect to each Loan purchased:
1. The Seller is a holder-in-due-course of each Note within the
meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code and is the sole owner of the Loan and has
the right to assign and transfer the Loan to the Buyer. The Seller has not sold,
assigned or otherwise transferred any right or interest in or to the Loan and
has not pledged the Loan as collateral for any loan or obligation of Seller or
other purpose. The assignment of the Loan by the Seller to Buyer validly
transfers such Loan to Buyer free and clear of any pledges, liens, claims,
encumbrances, Mortgages, charges, exceptions and/or security interests.
2. Except as expressly disclosed to and agreed to by the Buyer in
writing, each Loan conforms to: (a) Underwriting Guidelines of Buyer, and (b)
the conditions of the Approval Advice (if applicable).
3. All information set forth in any Purchase Schedule is true and
correct in all respects, and all other information furnished to Buyer by Seller
with respect to the Loan(s) purchased is true and correct as of the Settlement
Date.
4. Each Note and Mortgage and the Related Assets are in every
respect genuine, are the valid instrument they purport on their face to be, are
the legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the Borrower thereunder
and not subject to any discount, allowance, setoff, counterclaim, presently
pending bankruptcy or other defenses; none of the Notes, Mortgages, or Related
Assets arc forged or have affixed thereto any unauthorized signature or have
been entered into by any persons without the required legal capacity; and no
foreclosure (including any non-judicial foreclosure) or any other legal action
has been brought by the Seller or any senior lienholder in connection therewith.
5. No instruments other than those delivered herewith are required
under applicable law to evidence the indebtedness represented by the Loan(s) or
to perfect the lien of the Mortgage(s).
6. Except as has been disclosed to and agreed to by the Buyer in
writing, there is no agreement with the Borrower regarding any variation of the
interest rate and schedules of payment (except as described in the Note and
Mortgage) or other terms and conditions of the Loan, no Borrower has been
released from liability on the Note, and no property has been released from the
Mortgage. If the Loan is a variable rate loan, the Seller represents and
warrants as of each Settlement Date that all applicable notices required by law
or regulation have been provided to the Borrower and that the right to future
changes in the interest rate and payment schedules has not been waived by the
Seller or any previous holder of the Loan.
7. The Loan is secured by a valid Mortgage, of the agreed-upon
priority, on real property, and such Mortgage has been properly received by the
appropriate public recording official to be filed, recorded or otherwise
perfected in due course in accordance with applicable law in the appropriate
jurisdiction.
8. There are no violations of any applicable federal or state law
or regulation, including, without limitation, Fair Credit Reporting Act and
Regulations, the Federal Truth-in-Lending Act and Regulation Z (including but
not limited to Section 32), the Federal Equal Credit Opportunity Act and
Regulation B, the Federal Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act and Regulations,
the Federal Debt Collection Practices Act, the Home Mortgage Disclosure Act, and
any federal or state usury laws and regulations. All disclosures required by
law, federal, state or local, were properly made by the Seller prior to the
closing of the Loan.
9. The Seller holds a marked-up title policy or a title insurance
binder or title certificate which is in full force and effect; which has an
insurance limit at least as great as the outstanding principal balance of the
Loan; which names the Seller, its successors and assigns as the insured party;
and which is issued by a title insurer which has been approved by the Buyer in
writing and is qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Subject
Property is located. Said policy shall:
(i) insure the absence of any lien of taxes and other
assessments;
(ii) disclose whether all taxes and other assessments due as
of the date of the policy have been paid in full; and
(iii) disclose all other matters to which like properties are
commonly subject.
If the Buyer purchases a Loan having relied on a marked-up title
insurance binder or title certificate rather than a title insurance policy, the
Seller shall have thirty (30) days to deliver to the Buyer the title insurance
policy.
10. As of the Settlement Date the Seller has transferred to Buyer
all of its right, title and interest in the Note(s), Mortgage(s) and Related
Assets for each Loan purchased free and clear of any pledge, liens, claims,
encumbrances, Mortgages, charges, exceptions or security interests other than as
is disclosed in the title insurance policy to each Loan, together with an
individual flood insurance policy (to the extent required by the Flood Disaster
Protection Act) and an individual current hazard insurance policy (including
fire and extended coverage and other matters as are customary in the area of the
Subject Property), or a blanket policy in lieu

certificate, insuring the Subject Property, with a loss payable clause in favor
of the Seller, its successors and assigns in an amount equal to the lower of:
(a) the replacement value of the Subject Property, or (b) the unpaid principal
balance of the Loan and the senior mortgage deed(s) of trust loan.
11. The Note and Mortgage contain customary, valid, legal and
enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder
thereof adequate for the realization against the Subject Property of the
benefits of the security created thereby.
12. The proceeds of the Loan have been fully disbursed and any and all
requirements as to completion of on-site and off-site improvements and
disbursement of any escrow funds therefore have been complied with.
13. There are no mechanic's liens or similar liens or claims which have
been filed for work, labor or material affecting the Subject Property which are
or may be liens prior to or equal with the lien of the Mortgage and senior
Mortgage(s).
14. The Subject Property is free of material damage and waste and is in
good repair and there is no proceeding pending or threatened for the total or
partial condemnation of the Subject Property, and the Subject Property is free
and clear of all hazardous material.
15. All matured obligations pursuant to the Note and Mortgage have been
paid or performed and the Seller has not waived any defaults, breach, violation
or event of acceleration.
16. The Seller has no knowledge of any fact as to such Loan which it
has failed to disclose which would materially and adversely affect the value or
marketability of such Loans.
17. The Seller has no knowledge of any impediments to title that
adversely affect the value, enjoyment or marketability of the Subject Property.
18. Where required by state law, the Seller has filed for record a
request for notice of any action by a senior lienholder under a senior lien, and
the Seller has notified any superior lienholder in writing of the existence of
the Loan and requested notification of any action to be taken against the
Borrower by the superior lienholder. The Seller shall, upon request of the
Buyer, cooperate in recording a new request for action in favor of the Buyer and
in providing superior lienholders with written requests for notification to the
Buyer of action against the Borrower.
19. There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
existing under any senior Mortgage which, with notice, and the expiration of any
grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration.
20. Each Note and Mortgage contains a provision for the acceleration of
the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event
the related Mortgaged Property is sold without the prior consent of the
mortgagee thereunder.
21. All real estate appraisals made in connection with each Loan shall
have been performed in accordance with industry standards in the appraising
industry in the area where the appraised property is located. Any variances
ascertained pursuant to Article VI(G) of this Agreement greater than ten (10%)
percent shall constitute conclusive evidence of a breach of this warranty.
22. No hazardous or toxic materials or wastes or products regulated by
any law or ordinance or asbestos or asbestos products or materials or
polychlorinated biphenyls or urea formaldehyde insulation have been used or
employed in the construction, use or maintenance of the Subject Property or have

23. There has not occurred nor has any person or entity alleged that
there has occurred, upon the Subject Property any spillage, leakage, discharge
or release into the air, soil or groundwater of any hazardous material or
regulated wastes.
24. The Seller has not, in connection with each Loan purchased by
Buyer, taken any action which might result in a claim against the Buyer or an
obligation by the Buyer to refund unearned finance charges, credit life
insurance premiums or any other fees in respect to the transactions between
Buyer and Seller as described in this Agreement. The Seller agrees to indemnify
and hold the Buyer harmless from and against any claims, liabilities, damages or
costs (including reasonable attorney fees) relating to any Borrower, insurer or
other party who claims to be due a refund of finance charges or insurance
premiums or any other fees in connection with transactions contemplated by this
Agreement.
25. The Seller has not, in connection with each Loan purchased by
Buyer, incurred any obligation, made any commitment or taken any action which

sales brokerage commission, finder's fee or similar fee in respect to the
transactions between Buyer and Seller as described in this Agreement. The Seller
agrees to indemnify and hold the Buyer harmless from and against any claims,
liabilities, damages or costs (including reasonable attorney fees)

the applicable settlement date, not to take any action to solicit Borrowers

purchased by Buyer from Seller. In the event a Borrower elects to refinance with
Seller a Loan purchased by Buyer from Seller, and such Loan is currently owned
or serviced by Buyer or Buyer otherwise retains a financial interest in the
Loan, Buyer will have the right of first refusal on the purchase of the
refinancing.
VI. BREACH OF REPRESENTATION AND WARRANTIES
(A) REMEDY FOR BREACH. In addition to any rights or remedies the Buyer
has at law or in equity, if at any time there is a breach of any representation
or warranty set forth herein by Seller, the Seller shall upon demand of the
Buyer and at the sole option and absolute discretion of Buyer: (1) repurchase
the Loan affected for the Buy-Back Price within ten (10) days of notification;
or (2) if the Loan(s) has been sold by Buyer or the Subject Property has been
liquidated or sold by Buyer, the Seller shall, within ten (10) days of
notification, pay the Buyer the amount of loss, (as defined in Article VI(D)
below).
(B) REASSIGNMENTS. Upon receipt of the Buy Back Price, in full, in
immediately available funds, the Buyer shall reassign the Loan affected and
any right it may have in the relevant Subject Property to the Seller free and
clear of all liens, encumbrances, claims, or interest of any person or entity
claiming by, through, or under the Buyer without recourse and shall execute and
deliver to the Seller in recordable form an assignment of the Buyer's
beneficial interest in the affected Mortgage, as well as other documents
necessary to reflect the reassignment of any title protection and insurance
policies.
(C) "BUY-BACK PRICE". The term "Buy-Back Price" shall mean the sum
total of: (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, with accrued
interest thereon through the date the Loan is repurchased by Seller; (2) all
advances made by Buyer and all charges due from the Borrower; (3) the total
amount, including accrued interest and other expenses paid by the Buyer to any
senior lienholders, if any, to secure a priority lien position; (4) all
reasonable and necessary expenses, losses and damages paid or incurred by the
Buyer in connection with the Loan or an investigation of said Loan and/or the
related collateral, including, but not limited to, property taxes, maintenance
costs, interest expense, insurance, appraisals, advertising, sales commissions,
reasonable attorney fees, expenses and costs, fines and penalties; and (5)
rebate of premium due Buyer, if applicable.
(D) DEFINITION OF "LOSS": The term "Loss" shall mean the negative
result, if any, of the following calculations: (a) the sum total of: (i) the
outstanding principal balance of the Loan, with accrued interest thereon through
the date the Loan is sold or date the collateral is liquidated; (ii) all
advances by Buyer and all charges due from the Borrower; (iii) the total amount
paid by the Buyer to any senior lienholders, if any, to secure a first lien
position; (iv) accrued interest on all Mortgage Loans purchased from senior
lienholders from the date such Mortgage Loans were purchased through the date
the Loan is sold or the date the collateral is liquidated; and (v) all other
reasonable and necessary expenses, losses and damages incurred by and/or paid by
the Buyer in connection with the Loan or an investigation of said Loan or the
sale or liquidation of the Loan and/or the related collateral, including, but
not limited to, reasonable attorney fees, expenses and costs, property taxes,
maintenance costs, insurance, appraisals, advertising, sales commissions, fines
and penalties; less the (b) net proceeds from the sale of the Loan or the sale
or liquidation of the Subject Property or the collateral.
(E) REMEDY FOR NON-DELIVERY OF DOCUMENTS. However, anything to the
contrary notwithstanding, in the event that the Seller is required to deliver to
the Buyer any documents related to a purchased Loan and the Seller fails to
deliver such document in the proper form on the date or within the time period
specified by the controlling section of this Agreement, Buyer shall notify the
Seller of the breach, and the Seller shall have thirty (30) days from the date
of notice to cure the breach. If the Seller has not cured the breach within the
thirty (30) day cure period, the Seller shall immediately repurchase the Loan
upon Buyer's demand. The Buy-Back Price shall be determined in accordance with
Article VIC). Any Loan returned by the Buyer pursuant to this paragraph shall be
without recourse, representation or warranty.
(F) REMEDY FOR FIRST PAYMENT DEFAULT. However, anything to the contrary
notwithstanding, in the event the Borrower fails to make the first payment due
to the Buyer within thirty (30) days of the payment due date, regardless of
whether such payment is subsequently paid by the Borrower, the Buyer, at its
sole and absolute discretion, shall have the right to have Seller repurchase
said Loan(s) at the Buy-Back Price.
(G) REMEDY TO INSURE ACCURACY OF REAL ESTATE APPRAISALS. Buyer may, at
its own expense, in order to verify the accuracy of real property appraisals
prepared for Seller, order a reappraisal of the property secured by a Mortgage.
If the reappraisal obtained by Buyer indicates a fair market value which is more
than eight (8%) percent less than the original appraisal value, then upon
receipt by Seller from Buyer of a signed copy of the reappraisal, Seller shall
repurchase the Loan at the Buy-Back Price (as defined in Article VIC), above)
and reimburse Buyer for the cost of the appraisal subject to the following: If
Seller disputes the validity of the reappraisal prepared by Buyer's appraiser,
Seller may, at its own expense, request Buyer to obtain a third
-7-
11
appraisal, and only if such third appraisal is also more than eight (8%) percent
less than the original appraisal value shall the Seller be required to
repurchase the Loan at the Buy-Back Price. Buyer shall choose the appraiser for
the third appraisal with Seller's approval, which shall not be unreasonably
withheld, but such appraiser must possess the minimum qualifications specified
in Buyer's Underwriting Guidelines. The appraisal must be performed in
accordance with industry standards for the appraising industry in the area in
which the property is located, and the appraiser must be independent with
respect to both parties unless otherwise agreed to by the parties. In
determining the appropriate appraisal value, the review appraiser must determine
the appraised value as of the original appraisal date using comparable sales
that were available as of the date of the original appraisal.
However, anything to the contrary notwithstanding, the Buyer reserves
the sole right not to request the Seller to repurchase the Loan should the
reappraisal cause the combined loan-to-value not to exceed the maximum allowable
combined loan-to-value of the loan class under which the loan was purchased.
