Such sale shall be made pursuant to the provisions of such Takeout Commitment. If no Designated Investor or Takeout Commitment is provided with respect to any Purchased

Loan at the time of purchase, or such Designated Investor fails to honor its Takeout Commitment then Purchaser shall have the right, as owner of the Purchased Loan, to sell the Purchased Loan on such terms and to such third party, as Purchaser deems appropriate.

2.8.2 The sale of each Mortgage Loan to Purchaser shall include, and Seller hereby assigns to Purchaser, free of any security interest, lien, claim or encumbrance of any kind, Seller’s rights, and by purchasing such Mortgage Loans, Purchaser assumes Seller’s deliver obligations, under each Takeout Commitment for the Mortgage Loan(s) specified therein to the Designated Investor and to receive the Takeout Price therefore from such Designated Investor.

2.8.5 If a Designated Investor delivers Takeout Proceeds but fails to provide the Settlement Information or provides Defective Settlement Information, Purchaser (or Custodian, on Purchaser’s behalf) will notify the Designated Investor and Seller. If the Designated Investor fails to provide the Settlement Information or to correct the Defective Settlement Information, within one (1) Business Day after receipt of such notification, Purchaser may, in its sole discretion:

	(a)		return any Takeout Proceeds for which it has incomplete Settlement Information to the Designated Investor; or

	(b)		place such Takeout Proceeds in a non-interest bearing account until the requisite Settlement Information is provided.

Section 2.9 Seller’s Obligations with respect to Defective Mortgage Loans.

2.9.1 The sale of Mortgage Loans described herein are not Caveat Emptor, it being understood that the Purchaser is expressly relying on the representations as to each Mortgage Loan provided in Section 2.5 hereof. Accordingly, if, after Purchaser purchases a Mortgage Loan, Purchaser determines or receives notice (whether from Seller, Takeout Investor, Custodian or otherwise) that a Purchased Loan is a Defective Mortgage Loan, Purchaser (or Custodian, on Purchaser’s behalf) shall promptly notify Seller and Seller shall, within three (3) business days, re-purchase such Purchased Loan at the Adjusted Acquisition Price.

2.9.2 The parties further agree that if a payment default occurs on the first or second date payment was due under a Mortgage Note, Purchaser may notify Seller and Seller shall, within three (3) business days, re-purchase such Purchased Loan at the Adjusted Acquisition Price.

2.9.3 In the case of a Direct Funding, if the Seller fails to deliver or cause to be delivered to the Purchaser (or Custodian on behalf of Purchaser) the Submission Package Documents within two (2) Business Days following the Acquisition Date, Purchaser (or Custodian on Purchaser’s behalf) shall promptly notify Seller, and Seller shall within one Business Day, re-purchase such Purchased Loan at the Adjusted Acquisition Price.

2.9.4 Upon receipt of the Adjusted Acquisition Price from the Seller, Purchaser (or Custodian on behalf of Purchaser) shall deliver, or cause to be delivered, to Seller all Submission Package Documents, or Advance Submission Documents, as the case may be, previously delivered to Purchaser (or Custodian, as the case may be).

INTENT OF PARTIES; SECURITY INTEREST

Section 4.2 Books and Records.

Seller shall maintain a complete set of books and records for each Purchased Loan, which shall be clearly marked to reflect the Purchaser’s ownership interest in such Purchased Loan.

Section 4.3 Security Interest.

Without prejudice to the provisions of subsection 1.2.3 and the expressed intent of the parties, in the event, for any reason, any transaction involving a Mortgage Loan is construed by any Regulatory Authority as a borrowing rather than as a true sale and absolute conveyance, the Seller and Purchaser intend and agree that Purchaser shall have a perfected first priority security interest in the Purchased Items. In such case, Seller shall be deemed to have hereby granted to Purchaser (and possession of any promissory notes, instruments and documents by Custodian shall constitute possession on behalf of Purchaser for this purpose) a security interest in and lien upon the Purchased Items. In such an event, the Purchaser agrees that such security interest shall be of first priority and shall be free and clear of adverse claims, liens and interests. In such event, this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement, the Custodian, if any, shall be deemed to be an independent custodian for purposes of perfection of the security interest granted to Purchaser, and Purchaser shall have all of the rights of a secured party under applicable law.

Section 4.4 Transfers of Mortgage Loans by Purchaser.

For the avoidance of doubt, Purchaser may, in its sole discretion, assign all of its right, title and interest in, or grant a security interest in, any Purchased Loan, subject only to its obligation to deliver such Purchased Loan to any Designated Investor pursuant to Section 2.7. Purchaser need give no notice of such assignment to Seller or the Takeout Investor.
