NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual agreements herein set forth, and for other good and valuable consideration, the receipt and adequacy of which are hereby acknowledged, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital and the Depositor agree as follows:
ARTICLE I.
CONVEYANCE OF MORTGAGE LOANS
Section 1.01. Sale of Mortgage Loans.
Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital does hereby transfer, assign, set over, deposit with and otherwise convey to the Depositor, without recourse, subject to Sections 1.03 and 1.04, all the right, title and interest of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital in and to the Mortgage Loans (exclusive of any Retained Interest on such Mortgage Loans) identified on Schedule A hereto, having an aggregate principal balance as of the Cut-off Date of $6,591,206.47. Such conveyance includes, without limitation, the right to all distributions of principal and interest received on or with respect to the Mortgage Loans on or after January 1, 2003 other than, (i) any amounts representing Retained Interest and (ii) payments of principal and interest due on or before such date, and all such payments due after such date but received prior to such date and intended by the related Mortgagors to be applied after such date, together with all of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital's right, title and interest in and to each related account and all amounts from time to time credited to and the proceeds of such account, any REO Property and the proceeds thereof, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital's rights under any Insurance Policies related to the Mortgage Loans, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital's security interest in any collateral pledged to secure the Mortgage Loans, including the Mortgaged Properties and any Additional Collateral.
Concurrently with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital hereby assigns to the Depositor all of its rights and interest under each Transfer Agreement and each Servicing Agreement, other than (i) any right to receive Retained Interest and (ii) any servicing rights retained pursuant to the provisions of such Transfer Agreement or Servicing Agreement, to the extent relating to the Mortgage Loans. Concurrently with the execution hereof, the Depositor tenders the purchase price of $6,591,206.47. The Depositor hereby accepts such assignment, and shall be entitled to exercise all such rights of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital under each Transfer Agreement and each Servicing Agreement as if the Depositor had been a party to each such agreement.
Section 1.02. Delivery of Documents.
(a) In connection with such transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans hereunder, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital does hereby deliver, or cause to be delivered, to the Depositor (or its designee) the documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan (each a “Mortgage File”) so transferred and assigned, as specified in the related Transfer Agreement or Servicing Agreement.
(b)
For Mortgage Loans (if any) that have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date and prior to the Closing Date, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital, in lieu of delivering the related Mortgage Files, herewith delivers to the Depositor an Officer's Certificate which shall include a statement to the effect that all amounts received in connection with such prepayment that are required to be deposited in the account maintained by the Servicer for such purpose have been so deposited.
Section 1.03. Review of Documentation.
The Depositor, by execution and delivery hereof, acknowledges receipt of the Mortgage Files pertaining to the Mortgage Loans listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, subject to review thereof by U.S. Bank National Association and LaSalle Bank National Association, as the custodians (the “Custodians”) for the applicable Mortgage Loans for the Depositor. The Custodian is required to review, within 45 days following the Closing Date, each applicable Mortgage File. If in the course of such review the Custodian identifies any Material Defect, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital shall be obligated to cure such defect or to repurchase the related Mortgage Loan from the Depositor (or, at the direction of and on behalf of the Depositor, from the Trust Fund), or to substitute a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan therefor, in each case to the same extent and in the same manner as the Depositor is obligated to the Trustee and the Trust Fund under Section 2.02(c) of the Trust Agreement.
Section 1.04. Representations and Warranties of the Seller.
(a) ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital hereby represents and warrants to the Depositor that as of the Closing Date:
(i)
▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital is a corporation duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws governing its creation and existence and has full corporate power and authority to own its property, to carry on its business as presently conducted, and to enter into and perform its obligations under this Agreement;
(ii)
the execution and delivery by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital of this Agreement have been duly authorized by all necessary corporate action on the part of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital; neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement, nor the consummation of the transactions herein contemplated, nor compliance with the provisions hereof, will conflict with or result in a breach of, or constitute a default under, any of the provisions of any law, governmental rule, regulation, judgment, decree or order binding on ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital or its properties or the certificate of incorporation or bylaws of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital;
(iii)
the execution, delivery and performance by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital of this Agreement and the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby do not require the consent or approval of, the giving of notice to, the registration with, or the taking of any other action in respect of, any state, federal or other governmental authority or agency, except such as has been obtained, given, effected or taken prior to the date hereof;
(iv)
this Agreement has been duly executed and delivered by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital and, assuming due authorization, execution and delivery by the Depositor, constitutes a valid and binding obligation of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital enforceable against it in accordance with its terms except as such enforceability may be subject to (A) applicable bankruptcy and insolvency laws and other similar laws affecting the enforcement of the rights of creditors generally and (B) general principles of equity regardless of whether such enforcement is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law; and
(v)
there are no actions, suits or proceedings pending or, to the knowledge of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital, threatened or likely to be asserted against or affecting ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital, before or by any court, administrative agency, arbitrator or governmental body (A) with respect to any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or (B) with respect to any other matter which in the judgment of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital will be determined adversely to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital and will if determined adversely to ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital materially and adversely affect it or its business, assets, operations or condition, financial or otherwise, or adversely affect its ability to perform its obligations under this Agreement.
(b)
The representations and warranties of each Transferor with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the applicable Transfer Agreement were made as of the date of such Transfer Agreement. To the extent that any fact, condition or event with respect to a Mortgage Loan constitutes a breach of both (i) a representation or warranty of a Transferor under the applicable Transfer Agreement and (ii) a representation or warranty of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital under this Agreement, the only right or remedy of the Depositor shall be the right to enforce the obligations of such Transferor under any applicable representation or warranty made by it. The Depositor acknowledges and agrees that the representations and warranties of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital in this Section 1.04(b) are applicable only to facts, conditions or events that do not constitute a breach of any representation or warranty made by the related Transferor in the applicable Transfer Agreement. ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital shall have no obligation or liability with respect to any breach of a representation or warranty made by it with respect to the Mortgage Loans if the fact, condition or event constituting such breach also constitutes a breach of a representation or warranty made by the related Transferor in such Transfer Agreement, without regard to whether the related Transferor fulfills its contractual obligations in respect of such representation or warranty; provided, however, that if the related Transferor fulfills its obligations under the provisions of such Transfer Agreement by substituting for the affected Mortgage Loan a mortgage loan which is not a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital shall, in exchange for such substitute mortgage loan, provide the Depositor (a) with the applicable Purchase Price for the affected Mortgage Loan or (b) within the two-year period following the Closing Date, with a Qualified Substitute Mortgage Loan for such affected Mortgage Loan. Subject to the foregoing, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital represents and warrants upon delivery of the Mortgage Loans to the Depositor hereunder, as to each, that:
(i)
The information set forth with respect to the Mortgage Loans on the Mortgage Loan Schedule provides an accurate listing of the Mortgage Loans, and the information with respect to each Mortgage Loan on the Mortgage Loan Schedule is true and correct in all material respects at the date or dates respecting which such information is given;
(ii)
There are no defaults (other than delinquency in payment) in complying with the terms of any Mortgage, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital has no notice as to any taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing but which have not been paid;
(iii)
Except in the case of Cooperative Loans, each Mortgage requires all buildings or other improvements on the related Mortgaged Property to be insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the related Mortgaged Property is located pursuant to insurance policies conforming to the requirements of the guidelines of FNMA or FHLMC. If upon origination of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property was in an area identified in the Federal Register by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such flood insurance has been made available) a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Flood Insurance Administration is in effect which policy conforms to the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Flood Insurance Administration. Each Mortgage obligates the related Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the hazard insurance policy at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance at such Mortgagor's cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, each 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 the common facilities of a planned unit development. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding obligation of the insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full force and effect and inure to the benefit of the Depositor upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.
(iv)
Each Mortgage has not been satisfied, cancelled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission;
(v)
Each Mortgage evidences a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien on the related Mortgaged Property (including all improvements on the Mortgaged Property). The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to: (1) liens of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable and, if the related Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit, any lien for common charges permitted by statute, (2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date of recording of such Mortgage acceptable to mortgage lending institutions in the area in which the related Mortgaged Property is located and specifically referred to in the lender's Title Insurance Policy or attorney's opinion of title and abstract of title delivered to the originator of such Mortgage Loan, and (3) such other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not, individually or in the aggregate, materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage. Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to, and delivered to the Trustee in connection with a Mortgage Loan establishes a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien on the property described therein and the Depositor has full right to sell and assign the same to the Trustee;
(vi)
Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans to the Depositor, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital was the sole owner of record and holder of each Mortgage Loan, and ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital had good and marketable title thereto, and has full right to transfer and sell each Mortgage Loan to the Depositor free and clear, except as described in paragraph (v) above, 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 sell and assign each Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement;
(vii)
Each Mortgage Loan other than any Cooperative Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney's opinion of title and abstract of title the form and substance of which is generally acceptable to mortgage lending institutions originating mortgage loans in the locality where the related Mortgaged Property is located or (ii) an ALTA mortgagee Title Insurance Policy or other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance, issued by a title insurer qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring the originator of the Mortgage Loan, and its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan (subject only to the exceptions described in paragraph (v) above). If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit located in a state in which a title insurer will generally issue an endorsement, then the related Title Insurance Policy contains an endorsement insuring the validity of the creation of the condominium form of ownership with respect to the project in which such unit is located. With respect to any Title Insurance Policy, the originator is the sole insured of such mortgagee Title Insurance Policy, such mortgagee Title Insurance Policy is in full force and effect and will inure to the benefit of the Depositor upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, no claims have been made under such mortgagee Title Insurance Policy and no prior holder of the related Mortgage, including ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital, has done, by act or omission, anything that would impair the coverage of such mortgagee Title Insurance Policy;
(viii)
To the best of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital's knowledge, no foreclosure action is being threatened or commenced with respect to any Mortgage Loan. There is no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation of any Mortgaged Property (or, in the case of a Cooperative Loan, the related cooperative unit) and each such property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty, so as to have a material adverse effect on the value of the related Mortgaged Property as security for the related Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended;
(ix)
There are no mechanics' or similar liens or claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the related Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related Mortgage;
(x)
Each Mortgage Loan was originated by a savings and loan association, savings bank, commercial bank, credit union, insurance company, or similar institution which is supervised and examined by a Federal or State authority, or by a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act;
(xi)
Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law, including, without limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to each Mortgage Loan have been complied with; and
(xii)
Each Mortgage Loan is a “qualified mortgage” within the meaning of Section 860G of the Code and Treas. Reg. §1.860G-2.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth herein and the obligations of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital set forth in this Section survive delivery of the Mortgage Files and the Assignment of Mortgage of each Mortgage Loan to the Depositor. Upon discovery by either ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital or the Depositor of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties that adversely and materially affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan, and that does not also constitute a breach of a representation or warranty of the related Transferor in the applicable Transfer Agreement), the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other party. Within 60 days of the discovery of any such breach, ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital shall either (a) cure such breach in all material respects, (b) repurchase such Mortgage Loan or any property acquired in respect thereof from the Depositor at the applicable Purchase Price or (c) within the two year period following the Closing Date, substitute a Qualifying Substitute Mortgage Loan for the affected Mortgage Loan.
Section 1.05. Grant Clause.
It is intended that the conveyance of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital's right, title and interest in and to Mortgage Loans and other property conveyed pursuant to this Agreement shall constitute, and shall be construed as, a sale of such property and not a grant of a security interest to secure a loan. However, if such conveyance is deemed to be in respect of a loan, it is intended that: (1) the rights and obligations of the parties shall be established pursuant to the terms of this Agreement; (2) ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital hereby grants to the Depositor a first priority security interest in all of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital's right, title and interest in, to and under, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, such Mortgage Loans and other property; and (3) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law.
Section 1.06. Assignment by Depositor.
The Depositor shall have the right, upon notice to but without the consent of ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital, to assign, in whole or in part, its interest under this Agreement with respect to the Mortgage Loans to the Trustee, and the Trustee then shall succeed to all rights of the Depositor under this Agreement. All references to the Depositor in this Agreement shall be deemed to include its assignee or designee, specifically including the Trustee.

No such amendment effected pursuant to clause (iii) of the preceding sentence shall adversely affect in any material respect the interests of any Holder. Any such amendment shall be deemed not to adversely affect in any material respect any Holder, if the Trustee receives written confirmation from each Rating Agency that such amendment will not cause such Rating Agency to reduce the then current rating assigned to the Certificates (and any Opinion of Counsel requested by the Trustee in connection with any such amendment may rely expressly on such confirmation as the basis therefor).
(a)
This Agreement may also be amended from time to time by ▇▇▇▇▇▇ Capital and the Depositor with the consent of the Holders of not less than 66-2/3% of the Class Certificate Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class of Certificates affected thereby for the purpose of adding any provisions to or changing in any manner or eliminating any of the provisions of this Agreement or of modifying in any manner the rights of the Holders; provided, however, that no such amendment may (i) reduce in any manner the amount of, or delay the timing of, payments received on Mortgage Loans which are required to be distributed on any Certificate without the consent of the Holder of such Certificate or (ii) reduce the aforesaid percentages of Class Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of Certificates of each Class, the Holders of which are required to consent to any such amendment without the consent of the Holders of 100% of the Class Principal Amount (or Percentage Interest) of each Class of Certificates affected thereby. For purposes of this paragraph, references to “Holder” or “Holders” shall be deemed to include, in the case of any Class of Book-Entry Certificates, the related Certificate Owners.
(b)
It shall not be necessary for the consent of Holders under this Section 2.03 to approve the particular form of any proposed amendment, but it shall be sufficient if such consent shall approve the substance thereof. The manner of obtaining such consents and of evidencing the authorization of the execution thereof by Holders shall be subject to such reasonable regulations as the Trustee may prescribe.
Section 2.04. Governing Law.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE GOVERNED BY AND CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REFERENCE TO ITS CONFLICT OF LAW PROVISIONS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW), AND THE OBLIGATIONS, RIGHTS AND REMEDIES OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE DETERMINED IN ACCORDANCE WITH SUCH LAWS.

Section 2.06. Indulgences; No Waivers.

No waiver shall be effective unless it is in writing and is signed by the party asserted to have granted such waiver.
Section 2.07. Headings Not to Affect Interpretation.
The headings contained in this Agreement are for convenience of reference only, and they shall not be used in the interpretation hereof.
Section 2.08. Benefits of Agreement.
