“Mortgage” shall mean with respect to a Loan, the mortgage, deed of trust or other instrument, which creates a First Lien or Second Lien (as indicated on the Asset Schedule) on the fee simple or leasehold estate in such real property which secures the Note.

(h) Paragraph (f) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(f) Hazard Insurance. The Mortgaged Property is insured by a fire and extended perils insurance policy, issued by a Qualified Insurer, and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, and to the extent required by Seller as of the date of origination consistent with the Underwriting Guidelines and Agency Guidelines, against earthquake and other risks insured against by Persons operating like properties in the locality of the Mortgaged Property, in an amount not less than the greatest of (i) 100% of the replacement cost of all improvements to the Mortgaged Property, (ii) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan with respect to each First Lien Loan, or (B) with respect to each Alabama Second Lien Loan, the sum of the outstanding principal balance of the First Lien Loan and the outstanding principal balance of the Alabama Second Lien Loan or (iii) the amount necessary to avoid the

operation of any co-insurance provisions with respect to the Mortgaged Property, and consistent with the amount that would have been required as of the date of origination in accordance with the Underwriting Guidelines or (iv) the amount necessary to fully compensate for any damage or loss to the improvements that are a part of such property on a replacement cost basis. If any portion of the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified by any federal Governmental Authority as having special flood hazards, and flood insurance is available, a flood insurance policy meeting the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier, which policy conforms to the requirements of the FHA, if applicable, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (1) the outstanding principal balance of the Loan, (2) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property, and (3) the maximum amount of insurance available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended. All such insurance policies (collectively, the “Hazard Insurance Policy”) contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Seller, its successors and assigns (including without limitation, subsequent owners of the Loan), as mortgagee, and may not be reduced, terminated or canceled without thirty (30) days’ prior written notice to the mortgagee. No such notice has been received by Seller. All premiums due and owing on such insurance policy have been paid. The related Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such Mortgagor’s failure to do so, authorizes the mortgagee to maintain such insurance at the Mortgagor’s cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from such Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard insurance, provided the policy is not a “master” or “blanket” Hazard Insurance Policy covering a condominium, or any Hazard Insurance Policy covering the common facilities of a planned unit development. The Hazard Insurance Policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer and is in full force and effect. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor’s having engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of either including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(i) Paragraph (j) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(j) Valid Lien. The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected (A) first lien and first priority security interest with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be a First Lien (as reflected on the Asset Schedule), or (B) second lien and second priority security interest with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be an Alabama Second Lien Loan (as reflected on the Asset Schedule), in either case, on the real property included in the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems located in or annexed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time with respect to the foregoing. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

(1) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;

(2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Loan and (a) referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Loan or (b) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal;

(3) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property; and

(4) with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be an Alabama Second Lien Loan (as reflected on the Asset Schedule) a First Lien on the Mortgaged Property.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable (A) first lien and first priority security interest with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be a First Lien (as reflected on the Asset Schedule), or (B) Second Lien and second priority security interest with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be an Alabama Second Lien Loan (as reflected on the Asset Schedule), in either case, on the property described therein and Seller has full right to pledge and assign the same to Buyer. The Mortgaged Property was not, as of the date of origination of the Loan, subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt or other security instrument creating a lien subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage, unless otherwise disclosed to Buyer in writing on or prior to the date on which such Loan becomes subject to a Transaction hereunder.

(j) Paragraph (m) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(m) Ownership. Seller is the sole owner and holder of the Loan (including without limitation the Servicing Rights appurtenant thereto). All Loans acquired by Seller from third parties (including affiliates) were acquired in a true and legal sale pursuant to which such third party sold, transferred, conveyed and assigned to Seller all of its right, title and interest in, to and under such Loan and retained no interest in such Loan. In connection with such sale, such third party received reasonably equivalent value and fair consideration and, in accordance with GAAP and for federal income tax purposes, reported the sale of such Loan to Seller as a sale of its interests in such Loan. The Loan is not assigned or pledged, and Seller has good, indefeasible and marketable title thereto, and has full right to transfer, pledge and assign the Loan to Buyer free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest, and has full right and authority subject to no interest or participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to assign, transfer and pledge each Loan pursuant to this Agreement and following the pledge of each Loan, Buyer will hold such Loan free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest except any such security interest created pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.

(k) Paragraph (o) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(o) LTV. As of the date of origination of the Loan, the LTV and CLTV (if applicable) are as identified on the Asset Schedule.

(l) Paragraph (p) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(p) Title Insurance. The Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of which is acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans in the area wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, (ii) an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title

insurer acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mae or ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, (iii) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of which is acceptable to the FHA with respect to FHA Loans, or (iv) an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance acceptable to the FHA with respect to the FHA Loans, and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer acceptable to FHA and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring the Seller, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Loan (including, to the extent a Note provides for Negative Amortization, the maximum amount of Negative Amortization in accordance with the Mortgage), subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (1), (2), (3) and, with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be an Alabama Second Lien Loan (as reflected on the Asset Schedule) clause (4) of paragraph (j) of this Part I of Schedule 1, and in the case of Adjustable Rate Loans, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment to the Mortgage Interest Rate and Monthly Payment. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance. Additionally, such lender’s title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest therein. The title policy does not contain any special exceptions (other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses. Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder or servicer of the related Mortgage, including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy, including, without limitation, no unlawful fee, commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by Seller.

(m) Paragraph (q) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended by adding the following at the end thereof:

With respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be an Alabama Second Lien Loan (as reflected on the Asset Schedule) (i) the First Lien is in full force and effect, (ii) there is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under such First Lien mortgage or the related mortgage note, (iii) no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of acceleration thereunder, and either (A) the First Lien mortgage contains a provision which allows or (B) applicable law requires, the mortgagee under the Alabama Second Lien Loan to receive notice of, and affords such mortgagee an opportunity to cure any default by payment in full or otherwise under the First Lien mortgage.

(n) Paragraph (dd) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(dd) Consolidation of Future Advances. Any future advances made to the Mortgagor prior to the origination of the Loan have been consolidated with the outstanding principal amount secured by the Mortgage, and the secured principal amount, as consolidated, bears a single interest rate and single repayment term. The lien of the Mortgage securing the consolidated principal amount is expressly insured as having (A) first lien priority with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be a First Lien (as reflected on the Asset Schedule), or (B) second lien priority with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be an Alabama Second Lien

Loan (as reflected on the Asset Schedule), in either case, by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee’s consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ ▇▇▇ and ▇▇▇▇▇▇▇ Mac. The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Loan.

(o) Paragraph (ff) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(ff) Collection Practices; Escrow Deposits: Interest Rate Adjustments. The origination and collection practices used by the originator, each servicer of the Loan and Seller with respect to the Loan have been in all material respects in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices, applicable laws and regulations, and have been in all material respects legal and proper. With respect to escrow deposits and Escrow Payments (other than with respect to each Loan which is indicated by Seller to be an Alabama Second Lien Loan and for which the mortgagee under the First Lien is collecting Escrow Payments (as reflected on the Asset Schedule), all such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of, Seller and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. All Escrow Payments have been collected in full compliance with state and federal law. An escrow of funds is not prohibited by applicable law, has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every item that remains unpaid and has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. No escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges or payments due Seller have been capitalized under the Mortgage or the Note. All Mortgage Interest Rate adjustments have been made in strict compliance with state and federal law and the terms of the related Note. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state, federal and local law has been properly paid and credited.

(p) Paragraph (bbb) of Schedule 1 (Representations and Warranties with respect to Loans) to the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety to read as follows:

(bbb) Custodian.

With respect to each Loan Document that has been released from the possession of the Custodian under Section 6(a) of the Custodial Agreement to Seller or its bailee, such Loan Document shall be returned to the Custodian within ten (10) calendar days (or if such tenth day is not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day) of release thereof.
