Promptly after the Closing Date (or after the date of transfer of any Substitute Mortgage Loan), the Seller, at its own expense, shall complete and submit for recording in the appropriate public office for real property records each of the assignments referred to in clause (iii) above,

with such assignment completed in favor of the Indenture Trustee. While such assignment to be recorded is being recorded, the Indenture Trustee shall retain a photocopy of such assignment.

The Purchaser hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and interest to the Mortgage Loans and other property, now existing and hereafter created, conveyed to it pursuant to this Section 2.1.

(c) The parties hereto intend that the transactions set forth herein, including the sale of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement, constitute a sale by the Seller to the Purchaser of all the Seller's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans and other property as and to the extent described above.

Upon discovery by the Seller or upon notice from the Purchaser, the Indenture Trustee, the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, or any Custodian, as applicable, of a breach of any representation or warranty in clause (a) above which materially and adversely affects the interest of the Noteholders in any Mortgage Loan, the Seller shall, within 90 days of its discovery or its receipt of notice of such breach, either (i) cure such breach in all material respects, or (ii) to the extent that such breach is with respect to a Mortgage Loan and can be cured by the removal of that Mortgage Loan from the Trust, either (A) repurchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust at the Repurchase Price, (B) substitute one or more Substitute Mortgage Loans for such Mortgage Loan, in each case in the manner and subject to the conditions and limitations set forth herein.

Upon discovery or receipt of notice by the Seller, the Purchaser or the Indenture Trustee of a breach of any representation or warranty of the Seller set forth in clause (b) above with respect to any Mortgage Loan which materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage Loans or the interests of the Purchaser, the Noteholders, the Holders of the Trust Certificates, or the Indenture Trustee in any of the Mortgage Loans delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to this Agreement, the party discovering or receiving notice of such breach shall give prompt written notice to the others. In the case of any such breach of a representation or warranty set forth in clause (b) above, the Seller shall, within 90 days from the date that the Seller was notified or otherwise obtained knowledge of such breach, either (i) cure such breach in all material respects or (ii) purchase such Mortgage Loan from the Trust Fund at the Repurchase Price. However, subject to the approval of the Purchaser, the Seller shall have the option to substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for such Mortgage Loan. The Repurchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan repurchased by the Seller, and any amounts paid by the Seller in connection with the preceding sentence, shall be deposited or caused to be deposited by the Seller in the Payment Account maintained by the Securities Administrator pursuant to Section 4.04 of the Sale and Servicing Agreement. The obligations of the Seller to cure, purchase or substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan shall constitute the Purchaser's, the Indenture Trustee's and the Noteholders' sole and exclusive remedy under this Agreement or otherwise respecting a breach of representations or warranties hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans.

In the event that the Seller elects to substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans for a Deleted Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section 3.1(b), the Seller shall deliver to the Indenture Trustee and the Master Servicer, as appropriate, with respect to such Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans, the original Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, an Assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form, and such other documents and agreements as are required by Section 2.1, with the Mortgage Note endorsed as required by Section 2.1. No substitution will be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for such month. Monthly Payments due with respect to Substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution, to the extent received by the Securities Administrator, will be retained by the Securities Administrator and remitted by the Securities Administrator to the Seller on the next succeeding Distribution Date. After the month of substitution, the Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such Deleted Mortgage Loan. Upon such substitution, the Mortgage Loan Schedule shall be amended to reflect the addition of the Substituted Mortgage Loan or Loans, the Substitute Mortgage Loan or Loans shall be subject to the terms of this Agreement in all respects and the Seller shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties with respect to the Substitute Mortgage Loan contained in Section 3.1(b) as of the date of substitution (other than representation (xx)).

In connection with the substitution of one or more Substitute Mortgage Loans for one or more Deleted Mortgage Loans, the Securities Administrator will determine the amount (if any) by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Substitute Mortgage Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of all such Deleted Mortgage Loans (in each case after application of the principal portion of the Monthly Payments due in the month of substitution that are to be distributed to Noteholders in the month of substitution). The Seller shall provide the Securities Administrator on the day of substitution for immediate deposit into the Payment Account the amount of such shortfall, without any reimbursement therefor. The costs of any substitution as described above, including any related assignments, opinions or other documentation in connection therewith shall be borne by the Seller.

Any cause of action against the Seller or relating to or arising out of a breach by the Seller of any representations and warranties made in clause (b) above shall accrue as to any Mortgage Loan upon (i) discovery of such breach by the Seller or notice thereof by the party discovering such breach and (ii) failure by the Seller to cure such breach, purchase such Mortgage Loan or substitute a Substitute Mortgage Loan pursuant to the terms hereof.

The parties hereto acknowledge that the Purchaser is acquiring the Mortgage Loans for the purpose of assigning the Mortgage Loans to the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund, for the benefit of the Noteholders and Certificateholders. As an inducement to the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans, the Seller acknowledges and consents to the assignment by the Purchaser to the Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund of all of the Purchaser's rights against the Seller pursuant to this Agreement and to the enforcement or exercise of any right or remedy against the Seller pursuant to this Agreement by the Purchaser. Such enforcement of a right or remedy by the Indenture Trustee, on behalf of the Trust Fund, shall have the same force and effect as if the right or remedy had been enforced or exercised by the Purchaser directly.

IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the Seller and the Purchaser have caused their names to be signed to this Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement by their respective officers thereunto duly authorized as of the day and year first above written.

XXXXXXXX X – Standard & Poor’s Anti-Predatory Lending Categorization

Standard & Poor’s has categorized loans governed by anti-predatory lending laws in the Jurisdictions listed below into three categories based upon a combination of factors that include (a) the risk exposure associated with the assignee liability and (b) the tests and thresholds set forth in those laws. Note that certain loans classified by the relevant statute as Covered are included in Standard & Poor’s High Cost Loan Category because they included thresholds and tests that are typical of what is generally considered High Cost by the industry.
