NOW, THEREFORE, in consideration of the mutual covenants herein
contained, the parties hereto agree as follows:
ARTICLE I.
DEFINITIONS AND SCHEDULES
Section 1.01. Definitions. Any capitalized term used but not defined
herein and below shall have the meaning assigned thereto in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or the related Prospectus Supplement dated December 15,
2000.
ARTICLE II.
SALE OF MORTGAGE LOANS; PAYMENT OF PURCHASE PRICE
Section 2.01. Sale of Mortgage Loans. The Seller, concurrently with the
execution and delivery of this Agreement, does hereby sell, assign, set over,
and otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, all of its right,
title and interest in, to and under (i) each Mortgage Loan, including the
related Cut-Off Date Principal Balance, all interest due thereon after the
Cut-Off Date and all collections in respect of interest and principal due
after the Cut-Off Date (and all principal received before the Cut-Off Date to
the extent such principal relates to a Monthly Payment due after the Cut-Off
Date); (ii) property which secured such Mortgage Loan and which has been
acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure; (iii) its interest in
any insurance policies in respect of the Mortgage Loans; (iv) any Additional
Collateral; and (v) all proceeds of any of the foregoing.
Section 2.02. Obligations of the Seller Upon Sale. In connection with the
transfer pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof, the Seller further agrees, at its
own expense, on or prior to the Closing Date, (a) to indicate in its books and
records that the Mortgage Loans have been sold to the Purchaser pursuant to
this Agreement and (b) to deliver to the Purchaser and the Trustee a computer
file containing a true and complete list of all such Mortgage Loans specifying
for each such Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-Off Date, (i) its account number
and (ii) the Cut-Off Date Principal Balance and such file, which forms a part
of Schedule A to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, shall also be marked as
Schedule I to this Agreement and is hereby incorporated into and made a part
of this Agreement.
In connection with such conveyance by the Seller, the Seller shall on
behalf of the Purchaser deliver to, and deposit with the Trustee, as assignee
of the Purchaser, on or before the Closing Date, the documents described in
Section 2.01 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Seller hereby confirms to the Purchaser and the Trustee that it has
made the appropriate entries in its general accounting records, to indicate
that the Mortgage Loans have been transferred to the Trustee, or a custodian
appointed pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement to act on behalf of
the Trustee, and that the Mortgage Loans constitute part of the Trust in
accordance with the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
The Purchaser hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and
interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans and other property, now existing
or hereafter created, conveyed to it pursuant to Section 2.01.
The parties hereto intend that the transaction set forth herein be a
non-recourse sale by the Seller to the Purchaser of all of the Seller's right,
title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans and other property
described in Section 2.01. Nonetheless, in the event the transaction set forth
herein is deemed not to be a sale, the Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser a
security interest in all of the Seller's right, title and interest in, to and
under the Mortgage Loans and other property described in Section 2.01, whether
now existing or hereafter created, to secure all of the Seller's obligations
hereunder; and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law. The Seller and the Purchaser shall, to the extent consistent
with this Agreement, take such actions as may be necessary to ensure that, if
this Agreement were deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage
Loans, such security interest would be deemed to be a perfected security
interest of first priority under applicable law and will be maintained as such
throughout the term of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
Section 2.03. Payment of Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loans. In
consideration of the sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the
Purchaser on the Closing Date, the Purchaser agrees to pay to the Seller on
the Closing Date by transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal
to $377,095,156.93 and to transfer to the Seller or its designee on the
Closing Date the Class A-R Certificate (collectively, the "Purchase Price").
The Seller shall pay, and be billed directly for, all reasonable expenses
incurred by the Purchaser in connection with the issuance of the Certificates,
including, without limitation, printing fees incurred in connection with the
prospectus relating to the Certificates, fees and expenses of Purchaser's
counsel, fees of the rating agencies requested to rate the Certificates,
accountant's fees and expenses and the fees and expenses of the Trustee and
other out-of-pocket costs, if any.

ARTICLE V.
INDEMNIFICATION
Section 5.01. Indemnification. (a) The Seller agrees to indemnify and
hold harmless the Purchaser, each of its directors, each of its officers and
each person or entity who controls the Purchaser or any such person, within
the meaning of Section 15 of the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the "1933
Act"), against any and all losses, claims, damages or liabilities, joint and
several, as incurred, to which the Purchaser, or any such person or entity may
become subject, under the Securities Act or otherwise, and will reimburse the
Purchaser, each such director and officer and each such controlling person for
any legal or other expenses incurred by the Purchaser or such controlling
person in connection with investigating or defending any such losses, claims,
damages or liabilities, insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities
(or actions in respect thereof) arise out of or are based upon (i) any untrue
statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in the
related Prospectus Supplement, or any amendment or supplement to the related
Prospectus Supplement approved in writing by the Seller or the omission or the
alleged omission to state therein a material fact necessary in order to make
the statements in the related Prospectus Supplement or any amendment or
supplement thereto, approved in writing by the Seller, in the light of the
circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but only to the
extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission relates to the Seller Information contained in the related
Prospectus Supplement, (ii) any untrue statement or alleged untrue statement
of any material fact contained in the information on any computer tape
furnished to the Purchaser or any affiliate thereof by or on behalf of the
Seller containing information regarding the assets of the Trust, or (iii) any
untrue statement or alleged untrue statement of any material fact contained in
any information provided by the Seller to the Purchaser or any affiliate
thereof, or any material omission in the information purported to be provided
thereby and disseminated to any Rating Agency, Deloitte & Touche LLP or
prospective investors (directly or indirectly through available information
systems) in connection with the issuance, marketing or offering of the
Certificates. This indemnity provision will be in addition to any liability
which the Seller may otherwise have.
(b) The Purchaser agrees to indemnify and hold harmless the Seller,
each of its officers, directors and each person or entity who controls the
Seller or any such person, against any and all losses, claims, damages or
liabilities, joint and several, to which the Seller, or any such person or
entity may become subject, under the 1933 Act or otherwise, and will reimburse
the Seller for any legal or other expenses incurred by the Seller, each such
officer and director and such controlling person in connection with
investigating or defending any such losses, claims, damages or liabilities
insofar as such losses, claims, damages or liabilities (or actions in respect
thereof) arise out of or are based upon any untrue statement or alleged untrue
statement of any material fact contained in the Prospectus Supplement or any
amendment or supplement thereto or the omission or the alleged omission to
state therein a material fact necessary in order to make the statements in the
Prospectus Supplement or any amendment or supplement thereto, in the light of
the circumstances under which they were made, not misleading, but only to the
extent that such untrue statement or alleged untrue statement or omission or
alleged omission is not contained in the Seller Information in the Prospectus
Supplement. For the purposes hereof, "Seller Information" means the
information in the Prospectus Supplement as follows: the first and second
sentences of the first bullet point, the first sentence of the second bullet
point and the first and second sentences of the third bullet point under the
heading "RISK FACTORS - Certain Features of the Mortgage Loans My Result in
Losses", the first paragraph under the heading "RISK FACTORS - Geographic
Concentration of the Mortgage Loans", and under the headings "The MORTGAGE
LOANS" and "THE SELLER AND THE ORIGINATORS - The Seller". This indemnity
provision will be in addition to any liability which the Purchaser may
otherwise have.
(c) Promptly after receipt by any indemnified party under this
Article V of notice of any claim or the commencement of any action, such
indemnified party shall, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against
any indemnifying party under this Article V, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the claim or the commencement of that action; provided, however,
that the failure to notify an indemnifying party shall not relieve such
indemnifying party from any liability which it may have under this Article V,
except to the extent it has been materially prejudiced by such failure and,
provided further, that the failure to notify any indemnifying party shall not
relieve it from any liability which it may have to any indemnified party
otherwise than under this Article V.
If any such claim or action shall be brought against an indemnified
party, and it shall notify the indemnifying party thereof, the indemnifying
party shall be entitled to participate therein and, to the extent that it
wishes, jointly with any other similarly notified indemnifying party, to
assume the defense thereof with counsel reasonably satisfactory to the
indemnified party. After notice from the indemnifying party to the indemnified
party of its election to assume the defense of such claim or action, the
indemnifying party shall not be liable to the indemnified party under this
Article V for any legal or other expenses subsequently incurred by the
indemnified party in connection with the defense thereof other than reasonable
costs of investigation.
Any indemnified party shall have the right to employ separate
counsel in any such action and to participate in the defense thereof, but the
fees and expenses of such counsel shall be at the expense of such indemnified
party unless: (i) the employment thereof has been specifically authorized by
the indemnifying party in writing, (ii) such indemnified party shall have been
advised in writing by such counsel that there may be one or more legal
defenses available to it which are different from or additional to those
available to the indemnifying party and in the reasonable judgment of such
counsel it is advisable for such indemnified party to employ separate counsel,
or (iii) the indemnifying party has failed to assume the defense of such
action and employ counsel reasonably satisfactory to the indemnified party, in
which case, if such indemnified party notifies the indemnifying party in
writing that it elects to employ separate counsel at the expense of the
indemnifying party, the indemnifying party shall not have the right to assume
the defense of such action on behalf of such indemnified party, it being
understood, however, the indemnifying party shall not, in connection with any
one such action or separate but substantially similar or related actions in
the same jurisdiction arising out of the same general allegations or
circumstances, be liable for the reasonable fees and expenses of more than one
separate firm of attorneys (in addition to local counsel) at any time for all
such indemnified parties, which firm shall be designated in writing by the
Purchaser, if the indemnified parties under this Article V consist of the
Purchaser, or by the Seller, if the indemnified parties under this Article V
consist of the Seller.
Each indemnified party, as a condition of the indemnity provisions
contained in Section 5.01(a) and (b) hereof, shall use its best efforts to
cooperate with the indemnifying party in the defense of any such action or
claim. No indemnifying party shall be liable for any settlement of any such
action effected without its written consent (which consent shall not be
unreasonably withheld), but if settled with its written consent or if there be
a final judgment for the plaintiff in any such action, the indemnifying party
agrees to indemnify and hold harmless any indemnified party from and against
any loss or liability by reason of such settlement or judgment.
Notwithstanding the foregoing sentence, if at any time an indemnified party
shall have requested an indemnifying party to consent to a settlement of any
action, the indemnifying party agrees that it shall be liable for any
settlement of any proceeding effected without its written consent if such
settlement is entered into more than 30 days after receipt by such
indemnifying party of the aforesaid request and the indemnifying party has not
previously provided the indemnified party with written notice of its objection
to such settlement. No indemnifying party shall effect any settlement of any
pending or threatened proceeding in respect of which an indemnified party is
or could have been a party and indemnity is or could have been sought
hereunder, without the written consent of such indemnified party, unless
settlement includes an unconditional release of such indemnified party from
all liability and claims that are the subject matter of such proceeding.
(d) In order to provide for just and equitable contribution in
circumstances in which the indemnity agreement provided for in this Article V
are for any reason held to be unenforceable although applicable in accordance
with its terms, the Seller, on the one hand, and the Purchaser, on the other,
shall contribute to the aggregate losses, liabilities, claims, damages and
expenses of the nature contemplated by said indemnity provision incurred by
the Seller and the Purchaser in such proportions as shall be appropriate to
reflect the relative benefits received by the Seller on the one hand and the
Purchaser on the other from the sale of the Certificates such that the
Purchaser is responsible for the lessor of (i) 0.25% thereof and (ii) 0.25% of
the aggregate proceeds to the Seller from the sale of the Certificates and the
Seller shall be responsible for the balance; provided, however, that no person
guilty of fraudulent misrepresentation (within the meaning of Section 11(f) of
the 0000 Xxx) shall be entitled to contribution from any person who was not
guilty of such fraudulent misrepresentation. For purposes of this Section
5.01, each officer and director of the Purchaser and each person, if any, who
controls the Purchaser within the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act shall
have the same rights to contribution as the Purchaser, each director and
officer of the Seller and each person, if any, who controls the Seller within
the meaning of Section 15 of the 1933 Act shall have the same rights to
contribution as the Seller.
(e) The Seller agrees to indemnify and to hold each of the
Purchaser, the Trustee, each of the officers and directors of each such entity
and each person or entity who controls each such entity or person and each
Certificateholder harmless against any and all claims, losses, penalties,
fines, forfeitures, legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other
costs, fees and expenses that the Purchaser, the Trustee, or any such person
or entity and any Certificateholder may sustain in any way (i) related to the
failure of the Seller to perform its duties in compliance with the terms of
this Agreement or (ii) arising from a breach by the Seller of its
representations and warranties in Section 3.01 of this Agreement. The Seller
shall immediately notify the Purchaser, the Trustee and each Certificateholder
if a claim is made by a third party with respect to this Agreement. The Seller
shall assume the defense of any such claim and pay all expenses in connection
therewith, including reasonable counsel fees, and promptly pay, discharge and
satisfy any judgment or decree which may be entered against the Purchaser, the
Trustee or any such person or entity and/or any Certificateholder in respect
of such claim.
ARTICLE VI.
TERMINATION
Section 6.01. Termination. The respective obligations and
responsibilities of the Seller and the Purchaser created hereby shall
terminate, except for the Seller's indemnity obligations as provided herein,
upon the termination of the Trust as provided in Article X of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
ARTICLE VII.
MISCELLANEOUS PROVISIONS
Section 7.01. Amendment. This Agreement may be amended from time to time
by the Seller and the Purchaser by written agreement signed by the parties
hereto.
Section 7.02. Governing Law. This Agreement shall be governed by and
construed in accordance with the laws of the State of New York and the
obligations, rights and remedies of the parties hereunder shall be determined
in accordance with such laws (without regard to its material conflict of laws
rules).
Section 7.03. Notices. All demands, notices and communications hereunder
shall be in writing and shall be deemed to have been duly given if personally
delivered at or mailed by registered mail, postage prepaid, addressed as
follows:
if to the Seller:
Greenwich Capital Financial Products, Inc.
000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx
Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx 00000
Attention: Legal Department
or such other address as may hereafter be furnished to the Purchaser in
writing by the Seller.
if to the Purchaser:
Greenwich Capital Acceptance, Inc.
000 Xxxxxxxxx Xxxx
Xxxxxxxxx, Xxxxxxxxxxx 00000
Attention: Legal Department
or such other address as may hereafter be furnished to Greenwich Capital
Financial Products, Inc. in writing by the Purchaser.
Section 7.04. Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the
covenants, agreements, provisions of terms of this Agreement shall be held
invalid for any reason whatsoever, then such covenants, agreements, provisions
or terms shall be deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements,
provisions or terms of this Agreement and shall in no way affect the validity
of enforceability of the other provisions of this Agreement.
Section 7.05. Counterparts. This Agreement may be executed in one or more
counterparts and by the different parties hereto on separate counterparts,
which may be transmitted by telecopier each of which, when so executed, shall
be deemed to be an original and such counterparts, together, shall constitute
one and the same agreement.
Section 7.06. Further Agreements. The parties hereto each agree to
execute and deliver to the other such additional documents, instruments or
agreements as may be necessary or reasonable and appropriate to effectuate the
purposes of this Agreement or in connection with the issuance of the
Certificates representing interests in the Trust Fund, including the Mortgage
Loans.
Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, as a further
inducement for the Purchaser to purchase the Mortgage Loans from the Seller,
the Seller will cooperate with the Purchaser in connection with the sale of
the Certificates. In that connection, the Seller will provide to the Purchaser
any and all information and appropriate verification of information, whether
through letters of its auditors and counsel or otherwise, as the Purchaser
shall reasonably request and will provide to the Purchaser such additional
representations and warranties, covenants, opinions of counsel, letters from
auditors, and certificates of public officials or officers of the Seller as
are reasonably required in connection with the offering of the Certificates.
Section 7.07. Intention of the Parties. It is the intention of the
parties that the Purchaser is purchasing, and the Seller is selling, the
Mortgage Loans rather than pledging such Mortgage Loans to secure a loan by
the Purchaser to the Seller. Accordingly, the parties hereto each intend to
treat the transaction as a sale by the Seller, and a purchase by the
Purchaser, of the Mortgage Loans. The Purchaser will have the right to review
the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgage Files to determine the
characteristics of the Mortgage Loans which will affect the Federal income tax
consequences of owning the Mortgage Loans and the Seller will cooperate with
all reasonable requests made by the Purchaser in the course of such review.
Section 7.08. Successors and Assigns: Assignment of Purchase Agreement.
This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by
the Seller, the Purchaser and the Trustee. The obligations of the Seller under
this Agreement cannot be assigned or delegated to a third party without the
consent of the Purchaser which consent shall be at the Purchaser's sole
discretion, except that the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Seller
may assign its obligations hereunder to any Person into which the Seller is
merged or any corporation resulting from any merger, conversion or
consolidation to which the Seller is a party or any Person succeeding to the
business of the Seller. The parties hereto acknowledge that the Purchaser is
acquiring the Mortgage Loans for the purpose of contributing them to a trust
that will issue the Certificates representing undivided interests in such
Mortgage Loans. 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 of all of the Purchaser's rights against the Seller pursuant to
this Agreement insofar as such rights relate to Mortgage Loans transferred to
the Trustee and to the enforcement or exercise of any right or remedy against
the Seller pursuant to this Agreement by the Trustee. Such enforcement of a
right or remedy by the Trustee shall have the same force and effect as if the
right or remedy had been enforced or exercised by the Purchaser directly.
Section 7.09. Survival. The representations and warranties set forth in
Sections 3.01 and 3.02 and the provisions of Article V hereof shall survive
the purchase of the Mortgage Loans hereunder.
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.

Greenwich Capital Financial Products, Inc., with respect to the MLCC
Originated Loans, hereby makes the representations and warranties set forth in
this Schedule IIIA to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of December 18, 2000,
or if so specified herein, as of December 1, 2000 (referred to in this
Schedule IIIA as the "Cut-Off Date"). Capitalized terms used but not otherwise
defined in this Schedule IIIA shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the
Master Mortgage Loan Purchase Agreement, dated as of May 13, 1997, as amended
on December 30, 1998, between Greenwich Capital Financial Products, Inc.
("GCFP"), as purchaser, and Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Credit Corporation, as seller.
Each reference to a "Mortgage Loan" in this Schedule IIIA shall mean an
"MLCC Originated Loan" (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
dated as of December 1, 2000, among GCFP, Greenwich Capital Acceptance, Inc.
("GCA") and Bankers Trust Company of California, N.A. (the "Pooling and
Servicing Agreement")), and each reference to a "Mortgaged Property" shall
mean a Mortgaged Property related to an MLCC Originated Loan. Each reference
to the "Seller" in this Schedule IIIA shall mean GCFP, in its capacity as
seller of the MLCC Originated Loans. Each reference to the "Purchaser" in this
Schedule IIIA shall mean GCA, in its capacity as purchaser of the MLCC
Originated Loans. Each reference to the "Mortgage Loan Schedule" in this
Schedule IIIA shall mean the mortgage loan schedule forming Schedule I to the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to the extent that it relates to the MLCC
Originated Loans.
(i) The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is true and
correct in all material respects, and does not omit any material fact
necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading;
(ii) As of the Cut-Off Date, the Mortgage Loan is not delinquent in
payment more than 59 days and neither the Mortgage Loan nor the Additional
Collateral (if applicable) has been dishonored; as of the Cut-Off Date, no
more than approximately 3.41% (by principal balance) of the Mortgage Loans are
delinquent in payment 30 to 59 days; there are no material defaults under the
terms of the Mortgage Loan; the Seller has not advanced funds, or induced,
solicited or knowingly received any advance of funds from a party other than
the owner of the Mortgaged Property subject to the Mortgage, directly or
indirectly, for the payment of any amount required by the Mortgage Loan;
(iii) To the best of the Seller's knowledge, there are no delinquent
taxes or other outstanding charges affecting the related Mortgaged Property
which would permit a taxing authority to initiate foreclosure proceedings
against the Mortgaged Property;
(iv) The terms of the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, and the Additional
Collateral (if applicable) have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified
in any respect, except by written instruments contained in the Mortgage File,
the substance of which waiver, alteration or modification is reflected on the
Mortgage Loan Schedule. No Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part,
except in connection with an assumption agreement which assumption agreement
is part of the Mortgage File and the terms of which are reflected in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule;
(v) The Mortgagor has not asserted that the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage,
or the Additional Collateral (if applicable), are subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury,
nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage
unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission,
set-off counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury and to the
best of the Seller's knowledge, no such right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim or defense has been asserted by any Person other than the obligor
with respect thereto;
(vi) All buildings upon the Mortgaged Property are required to be insured
by a generally acceptable insurer against loss by fire, hazards of extended
coverage and such other hazards as are customarily included in extended
coverage in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located, pursuant to
standard hazard insurance policies in an amount which is equal to the lesser
of (A) the replacement cost of the improvements searing such Mortgage Loan or
(B) the principal balance owing on such Mortgage Loan. To the best knowledge
of the Seller, all such standard hazard policies are in effect. On the date of
origination, such standard hazard policies contained a standard mortgagee
clause naming the Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan and their
respective successors in interest as mortgagee and, to the best knowledge of
the Seller, such clause is still in effect and, to the best of the Seller's
knowledge, all premiums due thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged Property
is located in an area identified by the Federal Emergency Management Agency as
having special flood hazards under the National Flood Insurance Act of 1994,
as amended, such Mortgaged Property is covered by flood insurance. The
Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at
Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor's failure to do so,
authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at
Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the
Mortgagor;
(vii) At the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan and thereafter,
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
required to be complied with and applicable to the Mortgage Loan and the
Additional Collateral have been complied with in all material respects;
(viii) The Mortgage has not been satisfied as of the Cut-Off Date,
canceled or subordinated, in whole, or rescinded, and the Mortgaged Property
has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part
(except for a release that does not materially impair the security of the
Mortgage Loan or a release the effect of which is reflected in the
Loan-to-Value Ratio for the Mortgage Loan as set forth in the Mortgage Loan
Schedule), nor to the best of the Seller's knowledge has any instrument been
executed that would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or
rescission;
(ix) Ownership of the Mortgaged Property is held in fee simple (except
for Mortgage Loans as to which the related land is held in a leasehold which
extends at least five years beyond the maturity date of the Mortgage Loan).
Except as permitted by the fourth sentence of this paragraph (ix), the
Mortgage is a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien on the Mortgaged
Property, including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all
installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air
conditioning systems affixed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations
and replacements made at any time with respect to the foregoing securing the
Mortgage Note's original principal balance. The Mortgage and the Mortgage Note
do not contain any evidence on their face of any security interest or other
interest or right thereto. Such lien is free and clear of all adverse claims,
liens and encumbrances having priority over the first lien of the Mortgage
subject only to (1) the lien of non-delinquent 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 which are acceptable to mortgage lending
institutions generally, or which are specifically referred to in the lender's
title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and
either (A) which are referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made
for the originator of the Mortgage Loan, or (B) which do not in the aggregate
adversely affect the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property as set forth in
such appraisal, and (3) other matters to which like properties are commonly
subject which do not in the aggregate 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. Any security
agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in
connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting
and enforceable first lien and first priority security interest on the
property described therein;
(x) The Mortgage Note is not subject to a third party's security interest
or other rights or interest therein;
(xi) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine and is the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in
accordance with its terms subject to bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws of
general application affecting the rights of creditors. All parties to the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the legal capacity to enter into the
Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage.
The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by
such parties. No fraud was committed in the origination of the Mortgage Loan,
and to the best of Seller's knowledge the documents, instruments and
agreements submitted for loan underwriting contain no untrue statement of
material fact or omit to state a material fact required to be stated or
necessary to make the information and statements therein not misleading. The
proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no
requirement for future advances thereunder, and any and all requirements as to
completion of any on-site or off-site improvements and as to disbursements of
any escrow funds therefor have been complied with;
(xii) The Seller has good title to, and is the sole owner of, and the
full right to transfer and sell, the Mortgage Loan free and clear of any
encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest,
including, to the best knowledge of the Seller, any lien, claim or other
interest arising by operation of law;
(xiii) Each Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title insurance
policy or other generally acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to
Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac, issued by a title insurer acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae
or Xxxxxxx Mac and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the
Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to the exceptions contained
in paragraph (ix)(1), (2) and (3) above) the Seller or the originator of the
Mortgage Loan, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of
the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan. To the
best of the Seller's knowledge, no claims have been made under such lender's
title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the related Mortgage has done,
by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender's
title insurance policy;
(xiv) There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
existing under the Mortgage, the related Mortgage Note, or the Additional
Collateral (if applicable) and 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 permitting acceleration, except for any
Mortgage Loan payment which is not late by more than 60 days as of the Cut-Off
Date, and the Seller has not waived any default, breach, violation or event
permitting acceleration;
(xv) As of the date of origination or purchase by the Seller there were
no mechanics' or similar liens or claims which had been filed for work, labor
or material (and, to the best of the Seller's knowledge, no rights are
outstanding that under law could give rise to such lien) affecting the related
Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate
with, the lien of the related Mortgage;
(xvi) All improvements subject to the Mortgage lay wholly within the
boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property (and
wholly within the project with respect to a condominium unit) and no
improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property
unless acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx pursuant to the Xxxxxx Xxx Xxxxxxx' Guide or
those which are insured against by the title insurance policy referred to in
paragraph (xiii) above and to the best of Seller's knowledge all improvements
on the property comply with all applicable zoning and subdivision laws and
ordinances;
(xvii) Each Mortgage Loan was originated by a savings and loan
association, savings bank, commercial bank, credit union, insurance company,
or a similar institution which at the time of origination was supervised by a
federal or state authority or was a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of
Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National
Housing Act. The Mortgage contains the usual and customary provision of the
originator of the Mortgage Loan at the time of origination for the
acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage
Loan if the related Mortgaged Property is sold without the prior consent of
the mortgagee thereunder;
(xviii) The Mortgaged Property at origination or acquisition was and, to
the best of the Seller's knowledge, currently is free of material damage and
waste and at origination there was, and currently is, no proceeding pending
for the total or partial condemnation thereof;
(xix) The related Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions
such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for
the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security
provided thereby, including, (1) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a
deed of trust, by trustee's sale or judicial foreclosure, and (2) otherwise by
judicial foreclosure. The Seller has no knowledge of any homestead or other
exemption available to the Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to
sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right to foreclose the
Mortgage;
(xx) If the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, duly
qualified if required under applicable law to act as such, has been properly
designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees
or expenses are or will become payable to the trustee under the deed of trust,
except in connection with a trustee's sale or attempted sale after default by
the Mortgagor;
(xxi) With respect to each Mortgage Loan, there is an appraisal on a
Xxxxxx Xxx-approved form (or a narrative residential appraisal) of the related
Mortgaged Property signed prior to the approval of such Mortgage Loan
application by a qualified appraiser, appointed by the originator of such
Mortgage Loan, as appropriate, who has no interest, direct or indirect, in the
Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose
compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of such Mortgage
Loan and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy the requirements of Xxxxxx
Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated;
(xxii) No Mortgage Loan contains "subsidized buydown" or "graduated
payment" features;
(xxiii) The Mortgaged Property is a single-family (one- to four-unit)
dwelling residence erected thereon, or an individual condominium unit in a
condominium, or a cooperative, or an individual unit in a planned unit
development or in a de minimis planned unit development. No such residence is
a mobile home or a manufactured dwelling which is not permanently attached to
the land;
(xxiv) The Mortgage Loans were selected from among the outstanding
adjustable rate one- to four-family mortgage loans in Seller's portfolio and
such selection was not made in a manner so as to affect adversely the
interests of the Purchaser;
(xxv) The Mortgage is not in default and all taxes, governmental
assessments, insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold
payments or ground rents which previously became due and owing have been paid,
or with respect to those Mortgage Loans with Escrow Accounts, an escrow of
funds has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every such item
which has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. The Seller has not
advanced funds, or induced, or solicited any advance of funds by a party other
than the Mortgagor, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount
required under the Mortgage Loan, except for interest accruing from the date
of the Mortgage Note of date or disbursement of the Mortgage Loan proceeds,
whichever is greater, to the day which precedes by one month the date the
first installment of principal and interest were due and payable under the
Mortgage Note;
(xxvi) The Seller has no knowledge of any circumstances or conditions
with respect to the Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor, or the
Mortgagor's credit standing that can reasonably be expected to cause private
institutional investors to regard the Mortgage Loan as an unacceptable
investment, cause the Mortgage Loan to become severely delinquent, or
adversely affect the value or marketability of the Mortgage Loan;
(xxvii) The Mortgagor has not notified the Seller, and Seller has no
knowledge of any relief requested or allowed to the Mortgagor under the
Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act; and
(xxviii) The Seller has no knowledge of any toxic or hazardous substances
affecting the Mortgaged Property or any violation of any local, state, or
federal environmental law, rule, or regulation. The Seller has no knowledge of
any pending action or proceeding directly involving any Mortgaged Property in
which compliance with any environmental law, rule, or regulation is an issue.

Servicing Agreement")), and each reference to a "Mortgaged Property" shall
mean a Mortgaged Property related to a WAMU Originated Loan. Each reference to
the "Seller" in this Schedule IIIB shall mean GCFP, in its capacity as seller
of the WAMU Originated Loans. Each reference to the "Purchaser" in this

true and correct;
(ii) As of the Cut-Off Date, no Mortgage Loan is delinquent in payment by
more than 59 days; as of the Cut-Off Date, no more than approximately 0.53%

impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written
instruments, recorded in the applicable public recording office if necessary
to maintain the lien priority of the Mortgage, and which have been delivered
to the Custodian; the substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification
has been approved by the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any,
and the title insurer, to the extent required by the related policy, and is
reflected on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule. No instrument of waiver,
alteration or modification has been executed, and no Mortgagor has been
released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption
agreement approved by the insurer under the Primary Insurance Policy, if any,
the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption
agreement has been delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are
reflected in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule;
(v) The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury,
nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the
Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage
unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission,
set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury and no such
right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with
respect thereto;

Mortgaged Property is located, pursuant to insurance policies conforming to
the requirements of the Servicing Addendum. All such insurance policies
contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the Seller or the originator of the

thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified on
a Flood Hazard Map or Flood Insurance Rate Map issued by the Federal Emergency

instrument been executed that would effect any such satisfaction,
cancellation, subordination, rescission or release;
(ix) The Mortgage is a valid, existing and enforceable first lien on the
Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the Mortgaged Property
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 being acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and
specifically referred to in the lender's title insurance policy delivered to
the originator of the Mortgage Loan and which do not adversely affect the
Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property, and (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. Any
security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and
delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a
valid, existing and enforceable first lien and first priority security
interest on the property described therein and the Seller has full right to
sell and assign the same to the Purchaser. The Mortgaged Property was not, as
of the date of origination of the Mortgage 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;
(x) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are genuine and each is
the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in

for the account of the Mortgagor and there is no obligation for the Mortgagee
to advance additional funds thereunder and any and all requirements as to

expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of
the Mortgage have been paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund
of any amounts paid or due to the Mortgagee pursuant to the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage;
(xiii) The Seller is the sole legal, beneficial and equitable owner of
the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and has full right to transfer and sell the
Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser free and clear of any encumbrance, equity,
lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest;
(xiv) All parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage Loan,
whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the
period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) in compliance
with any and all applicable "doing business" and licensing requirements of the
laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located;
(xv) The Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title insurance
policy (which has an adjustable rate mortgage endorsement in the form of ALTA
6.0 or 6.1) acceptable to FNMA and FHLMC, issued by a title insurer acceptable
to FNMA and FHLMC and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the
Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to the exceptions contained
in (x)(1) and (2) above) the Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan,
its successors and assigns as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in
the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and against any loss by
reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the
provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment in the Mortgage Interest
Rate and Monthly Payment. Additionally, such lender's title insurance policy
affirmatively insures ingress and egress to and from the Mortgaged Property,
and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest
therein. The Seller or the originator of the Mortgage Loan, and its successors
and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender's title insurance policy,
and such lender's title insurance policy is in full force and effect and will
be in full 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 of the related Mortgage, including
the Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the
coverage of such lender's title insurance policy;
(xvi) There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and 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, except
for any Mortgage Loan payment which is not late by more than 59 days as of the
Cut-Off Date, and the Seller has not waived any default, breach, violation or
event of acceleration;
(xvii) There are no mechanics' or similar liens or claims which have been

law could give rise to such lien) affecting the related Mortgaged Property
which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of
the related Mortgage;
(xviii) All improvements which were considered in determining the
Appraised Value of the related Mortgaged Property lay wholly within the
boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no
improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property;

a savings bank, a commercial bank or similar banking institution which is
supervised and examined by a federal or state authority, or by a mortgagee
approved as such by the Secretary of HUD;
(xx) Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than sixty
days after the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan were disbursed. The Mortgage Loan
bears interest at the Mortgage Interest Rate. With respect to each Mortgage
Loan, the Mortgage Note is payable on the first day of each month in Monthly
Payments, which are changed on each Adjustment Date and are sufficient to
fully amortize the original principal balance over the original term thereof
and to pay interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate. The Index for each
Mortgage Loan is as defined in the related Confirmation. The Mortgage Note
does not permit negative amortization. No Mortgage Loan is a Convertible
Mortgage Loan;
(xxi) The origination and collection practices used by the originator of
the Mortgage Loan with respect to each Mortgage Note and Mortgage have been in
all respects legal, proper, prudent and customary in the mortgage origination
and servicing industry;
(xxii) The Mortgaged Property is free of damage and waste and there is no
proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation thereof;
(xxiii) The Mortgage and related Mortgage Note contain customary and
enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder
thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the
benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (1) in the case of a
Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (2) otherwise
by judicial foreclosure. The Mortgaged Property has not been subject to any
bankruptcy proceeding or foreclosure proceeding and the Mortgagor has not
filed for protection under applicable bankruptcy laws. There is no homestead
or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would interfere with the
right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right to
foreclose the Mortgage. The Mortgagor has not notified the Seller and the
Seller has no knowledge of any relief requested or allowed to the Mortgagor
under the Soldiers and Sailors Civil Relief Act of 1940;
(xxiv) The Mortgage Loan was underwritten in accordance with the
underwriting standards of the originator of the Mortgage Loan in effect at the
time the Mortgage Loan was originated, which underwriting standards satisfy
the standards of FNMA and FHLMC; and the Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on
forms acceptable to FNMA and FHLMC;
(xxv) The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral
except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage on the Mortgaged Property and
the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage
referred to in (x) above;
(xxvi) The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged
Property which satisfied the standards of FNMA and FHLMC and was made and
signed, prior to the approval of the Mortgage Loan application, by a qualified
appraiser, duly appointed by the Seller, who had no interest, direct or
indirect in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security
thereof, whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of
the Mortgage Loan and who met the minimum qualifications of FNMA and FHLMC.
Each appraisal of the Mortgage Loan was made in accordance with the relevant
provisions of the Financial Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act
of 1989;
(xxvii) In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee,
duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly
designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees
or expenses are or will become payable by the Purchaser to the trustee under
the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's sale after default by
the Mortgagor;
(xxviii) No Mortgage Loan (1) contains provisions pursuant to which
Monthly Payments are (a) paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any
separate account established by the Seller, the Mortgagor, or anyone on behalf
of the Mortgagor or (b) paid by any source other than the Mortgagor or (2)
contains any other similar provisions which may constitute a "buydown"
provision. The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and the
Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent interest
feature;
(xxix) The Mortgagor has executed a statement to the effect that the
Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required by applicable law
with respect to the making of adjustable rate mortgage loans and rescission
materials with respect to Refinanced Mortgage Loans, and such statement is and
will remain in the Mortgage File;
(xxx) No Mortgage Loan was made in connection with (1) the construction
or rehabilitation of a Mortgaged Property or (2) facilitating the trade-in or
exchange of a Mortgaged Property;
(xxxi) The Seller has no knowledge of any circumstances or condition

of the portion of the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property required by
FNMA. All provisions of such Primary Insurance Policy have been and are being
complied with, such policy is in full force and effect, and all premiums due
thereunder have been paid. Any Mortgage subject to any such Primary Insurance
Policy obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain such insurance and to
pay all premiums and charges in connection therewith. The Mortgage Interest

Mortgage Loan or in the application of any insurance in relation to such
Mortgage Loan;

for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged
Property is located;
(xxxvi) Any principal advances made to the Mortgagor prior to the Cut-Off
Date 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
first lien priority by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy
insuring the mortgagee's consolidated interest or by other title evidence
acceptable to FNMA and FHLMC. The consolidated principal amount does not
exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan;
(xxxvii) No Mortgage Loan has a balloon payment feature;
(xxxviii) If the Residential Dwelling on the Mortgaged Property is a

------------------------------------------------------------------
Greenwich Capital Financial Products, Inc., with respect to the Bank of
America Originated Loans, hereby makes the representations and warranties set
forth in this Schedule IIIC to the Depositor and the Trustee, as of December
18, 2000, or if so specified herein, as of December 1, 2000 (referred to in
this Schedule IIIC as the "Cut-Off Date"). Capitalized terms used but not
otherwise defined in this Schedule IIIC shall have the meanings ascribed
thereto in the Mortgage Loan Sale and Servicing Agreement, dated September 28,
2000 (the "Agreement"), between Bank of America, N.A., as seller and servicer,
and Greenwich Capital Financial Products, Inc., as purchaser.
Each reference to a "Mortgage Loan" in this Schedule IIIC shall mean a
"Bank of America Originated Loan" (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, dated as of December 1, 2000, among GCFP, Greenwich Capital
Acceptance, Inc. ("GCA") and Bankers Trust Company of California, N.A. (the
"Pooling and Servicing Agreement")), and each reference to a "Mortgaged
Property" shall mean a Mortgaged Property related to a Bank of America
Originated Loan. Each reference to the "Seller" in this Schedule IIIC shall
mean GCFP, in its capacity as seller of the Bank of America Originated Loans.
Each reference to the "Purchaser" in this Schedule IIIC shall mean GCA, in its
capacity as purchaser of the Bank of America Originated Loans. Each reference
to the "Mortgage Loan Schedule" in this Schedule IIIC shall mean the mortgage
loan schedule forming Schedule I to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, to
the extent that it relates to the Bank of America Originated Loans.
(i) The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is true,
correct and complete in all material respects.
(ii) There are no defaults by the Seller, the Servicer or any prior
originator in complying with the terms of the Mortgage, and all taxes, ground
rents, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, leasehold payments,
water, sewer and municipal charges which previously became due and owing have
been paid, or escrow funds have been established in an amount sufficient to
pay for every such escrowed item which remains unpaid and which has been
assessed but is not yet due and payable.
(iii) The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been
impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by written
instruments which have been recorded in the applicable public recording office
required by law or if necessary to maintain the lien priority of the Mortgage,
and which have been delivered to the Purchaser; the substance of any such
waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the insurer under the
Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, and by the title insurer, to the
extent required by the related policy, and is reflected on the Mortgage Loan
Schedule. No other instrument of waiver, alteration or modification has been
executed, and no Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in
connection with an assumption agreement approved by the insurer under the
Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, and by the title insurer, to the
extent required by the policy, and which assumption agreement is a part of the
Mortgage File and is reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.
(iv) The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including, without limitation,
the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder,
render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in
part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense,
including, without limitation, the defense of usury, and no such right of
rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect
thereto; and the Mortgagor was not a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy
or insolvency proceeding at the time the Mortgage Loan was originated.
(v) All buildings or other customarily insured improvements upon the
Mortgaged Property are insured by an insurer generally acceptable to Xxxxxx
Xxx and to prudent mortgage lending institutions against loss by fire, hazards
of extended coverage and such other hazards as are provided for in the Xxxxxx
Mae Guides as well as all additional requirements set forth herein, pursuant
to an insurance policy conforming to the requirements of Customary Servicing
Procedures and providing coverage in an amount equal to the lesser of (1) the
full insurable value of the Mortgaged Property or (2) the outstanding
principal balance owing on the Mortgage Loan. All such insurance policies are
in full force and effect and contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the
originator of the Mortgage Loan, its successors and assigns as mortgagee and
all premiums thereon have been paid. If the Mortgaged Property is in an area
identified on a flood hazard map or flood insurance rate map issued 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 Insurance Administration
is in effect which policy conforms to the requirements of Xxxxxx Xxx or
Xxxxxxx Mac. The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all
such insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor's
failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such
insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement
therefor from the Mortgagor.
(vi) 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, fair housing
or disclosure laws applicable to the origination and servicing of the Mortgage
Loan have been complied with.
(vii) The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or
rescinded, in whole or in part (other than as to Principal Prepayments in full
which may have been received on or after the Cut-Off Date and prior to the
"Closing Date" (as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement)), 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 satisfaction, cancellation, subordination, rescission or release. The
Seller has not waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the
Mortgagor's failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be
in default, and the Seller has not waived any default.
(viii) The Mortgage is a valid, existing, perfected and enforceable first
lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the Mortgaged
Property, free and clear of all adverse claims, liens and encumbrances having
priority over the lien of the Mortgage, 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 being acceptable to
mortgage lending institutions generally and either (A) specifically referred
to in the lender's title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the
Mortgage Loan or (B) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the
Mortgaged Property and (3) 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 or
the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property.
Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and
delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a
valid, existing and enforceable first lien and first priority security
interest on the property described therein and the Seller has the full right
to sell and assign the same to the Purchaser.
(ix) The Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are original and genuine
and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof,
enforceable in all respects in accordance with its terms except as
enforceability may be limited by (1) bankruptcy, insolvency, liquidation,
receivership, moratorium, reorganization or other similar laws affecting the
enforcement of the rights of creditors and (2) general principles of equity,
whether enforcement is sought in a proceeding in equity or at law and the
Seller has taken all action necessary to transfer such rights of
enforceability to the Purchaser.
(x) All parties to the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage had the legal
capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, and the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have
been duly and properly executed by such parties. Either the Mortgagor is a
natural person or the related co-borrower or guarantor is a natural person.
(xi) The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed to or
for the account of the Mortgagor and there is no obligation for the Mortgagee
to advance additional funds thereunder and any and all requirements as to
completion of any on-site or off-site improvement and as to disbursements of
any escrow funds therefor have been complied with. All costs, fees and
expenses incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of
the Mortgage have been paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund
of any amounts paid or due to the Mortgagee pursuant to the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage.
(xii) The Seller and all other parties which have had any interest in the
Mortgage Loan, whether as mortgagee, assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or,
during the period in which they held and disposed of such interest, were) in
compliance with any and all applicable "doing business" and licensing
requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is
located.
(xiii) The Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA or CLTA lender's title
insurance policy, acceptable to Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac, issued by a title
insurer acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac and qualified to do business
in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject
to the exceptions contained in (viii)(1), (2) and (3) above) the Seller or 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 and against any loss by reason of the invalidity or
unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage
providing for adjustment in the Mortgage Interest Rate or Monthly Payment.
With respect to each Mortgage Loan, such title insurance policy also includes
an adjustable-rate endorsement substantially in the form of ALTA Form 6.0 or
6.1. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, such title insurance policy
affirmatively insures access to the Mortgaged Property and against
encroachments upon the Mortgaged Property. The Seller or the originator of the
Mortgage Loan, and its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such
lender's title insurance policy, and such lender's title insurance policy is
in full force and effect and will be in full force and effect upon the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement and will inure
to the benefit of the Purchaser and its assigns without any further act. No
claims have been made under such lender's title insurance policy, and the
Seller has not done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the
coverage of such lender's title insurance policy.
(xiv) There is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration
existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and 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 permitting
acceleration, except for any Mortgage Loan payment which is not late by more
than 59 days as of the Cut-Off Date, and the Seller has not waived any
default, breach, violation or event permitting acceleration.
(xv) There are no mechanics' or similar liens or claims filed for work,
labor or material (and no rights are outstanding that under law could give
rise to such lien) affecting the related Mortgaged Property which are or may
be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate with, the lien of the related
Mortgage.
(xvi) All improvements which were considered in determining the Appraised
Value of the related Mortgaged Property lay wholly within the boundaries and
building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property, and no improvements on
adjoining properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property.
(xvii) The Mortgage Loan was originated by a commercial bank or similar
banking institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state
authority, or by a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of HUD.
(xviii) Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than
sixty (60) days after the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan were disbursed. The
Mortgage Loans are Six-Month CD Mortgage Loans, Twelve-Month Treasury Average
Mortgage Loans, Six-Month Treasury Average Mortgage Loans and One-Year CMT
Mortgage Loans, as indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, having an original
term to maturity of not more than 30 years, with interest payable in arrears
on the first day of the month. As to each Mortgage Loan, on each applicable
Adjustment Date, the Mortgage Interest Rate will be adjusted to equal the sum
of the applicable Index plus the applicable Gross Margin, rounded up or down
to the nearest multiple of 0.125%; provided, however, that the Mortgage
Interest Rate will not increase or decrease by more than the Initial Rate Cap
on the first Adjustment Date or the Periodic Rate Cap on any subsequent
Adjustment Date, and will in no event exceed the Lifetime Rate Cap. Each
Mortgage Note requires a monthly payment which is (1) sufficient during the
period prior to the first adjustment to the Mortgage Interest Rate to amortize
the original principal balance fully over the original term thereof and to pay
interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate and (2) recalculated on each
Payment Adjustment Date to amortize the outstanding principal balance fully as
of the first day of such period over the then remaining term of such Mortgage
Note and to pay interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate. The Mortgage
Note does not permit negative amortization. Interest on the Mortgage Note is
calculated on the basis of a 360-day year consisting of twelve 30-day months.
Unless otherwise indicated on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, no Mortgage Loan is
a Convertible Mortgage Loan.
(xix) There is no proceeding pending or, to the Seller's knowledge,
threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property and
such property is in good repair and is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or
earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty, so as to affect
adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage
Loan or the use for which the premises were intended.
(xx) The Mortgage and related Mortgage Note contain customary and
enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder
thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the
benefits of the security provided thereby, including (1) in the case of a
Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (2) otherwise
by judicial foreclosure. As of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan
and, to the best of the Seller's knowledge, as of the Closing Date, the
Mortgaged Property has not been subject to any bankruptcy proceeding or
foreclosure proceeding and the Mortgagor has not filed for protection under
applicable bankruptcy laws. There is no homestead or other exemption or right
available to the Mortgagor or any other person which would interfere with the
right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right to
foreclose the Mortgage.
(xxi) The Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms acceptable to Xxxxxx
Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac.
(xxii) The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any
collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage on the Mortgaged
Property and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or
chattel mortgage referred to in (lxxviii) above.
(xxiii) The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged
Property, in a form acceptable to Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac and such appraisal
complies with the requirements of FIRREA, and was made and signed, prior to
the approval of the Mortgage Loan application, by a Qualified Appraiser.
(xxiv) In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee,
duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly
designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees
or expenses are or will become payable by the Purchaser to the trustee under
the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee's sale after default by
the Mortgagor.
(xxv) The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and the
Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation, balloon payment or other
contingent interest feature, nor does it contain any "buydown" provision which
is currently in effect.
(xxvi) The Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the
acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage
Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without
the prior written consent of the mortgagee thereunder.
(xxvii) The Mortgagor has received all disclosure materials required by
applicable law with respect to the making of mortgage loans of the same type
as the Mortgage Loan and rescission materials required by applicable law if
the Mortgage Loan is a Refinanced Mortgage Loan and has acknowledged receipt
of such materials to the extent required by applicable law, and such documents
will remain in the Mortgage File.
(xxviii) No Mortgage Loan has an LTV at origination in excess of 95%.
Each Mortgage Loan with an LTV at origination in excess of 80% will be subject
to a Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, issued by an insurer acceptable to
Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac at the time of origination, which insures that
portion of the Mortgage Loan in excess of the portion of the Appraised Value
of the Mortgaged Property as required by Xxxxxx Mae. All provisions of such
Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy have been and are being complied with, such
policy is in full force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been
paid. Any Mortgage subject to any such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy
obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain such insurance and to pay all
premiums and charges in connection therewith at least until the LTV of such
Mortgage Loan is reduced to less than 80%. The Mortgage Interest Rate for the
Mortgage Loan does not include any such insurance premium. No Mortgage Loan
requires payment of such premiums, in whole or in part, by the Purchaser.
(xxix) The Mortgaged Property is lawfully occupied under applicable law,
all inspections, licenses and certificates required to be made or issued with
respect to all occupied portions of the Mortgaged Property and, with respect
to the use and occupancy of the same, including but not limited to
certificates of occupancy, have been made or obtained from the appropriate
authorities and no improvement located on or part of the Mortgaged Property is
in violation of any zoning law or regulation.
(xxx) The Assignment of Mortgage is in recordable form (except with
respect to any mortgage that has been recorded in the name of MFRS or its
designee) and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction
in which the Mortgaged Property is located.
(xxxi) As of the Cut-Off Date, the Mortgage Loan is not delinquent in
payment by more than 59 days; as of the Cut-Off Date, no more than
approximately 0.62% (by principal balance) of the Mortgage Loans are
delinquent in payment 30 to 59 days; and the Mortgage Loan has not been
dishonored, there are no material defaults under the terms of the Mortgage
Loan;
(xxxii) The Seller has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or
knowingly received any advance from any party other than the Mortgagor,
directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount due under the Mortgage
Loan.
(xxxiii) Prior to the sale of the Mortgage Loan by the Seller to the
Purchaser, the Seller was the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loans and
the indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage Note. The Mortgage Loans, including
the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, were not assigned or pledged by the Seller
and the Seller had good and marketable title thereto, and the Seller had full
right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser free and clear
of any encumbrance, participation interest, lien, equity, pledge, claim or
security interest and had full right and authority subject to no interest or
participation in, or agreement with any other party to sell or otherwise
transfer the Mortgage Loans. Following the sale of the Mortgage Loan, the
Purchaser will own such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any encumbrance,
equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security
interest. The Seller intends to relinquish all rights to monitor, possess and
control the Mortgage Loan except in connection with the servicing of the
Mortgage Loan by the Servicer as set forth in this Agreement. Neither the
Seller nor the Servicer will have any right to modify or alter the terms of
the sale of the Mortgage Loan and neither the Seller nor the Servicer will
have any obligation or right to repurchase the Mortgage Loan, except as
provided in this Agreement or as otherwise agreed to by the Seller, the
Servicer and the Purchaser.
(xxxiv) Any future advances made prior to the Cut-Off Date 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 first lien
priority by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring
the mortgagee's consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to
Xxxxxx Xxx and Xxxxxxx Mac. The consolidated principal amount does not exceed
the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.
(xxxv) The Mortgage Loan was underwritten in accordance with the
Underwriting Guidelines in effect at the time of origination with exceptions
thereto exercised in a reasonable manner.
(xxxvi) The Mortgaged Property is located in the state identified in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a parcel of real property with a
detached single family residence erected thereon, or a two- to four-family
dwelling, or an individual condominium unit, or an individual unit in a
planned unit development; provided, however, that any condominium project or
planned unit development generally conforms with the Underwriting Guidelines
regarding such dwellings, and no residence or dwelling is a mobile home,
manufactured dwelling or cooperative.
(xxxvii) If the Mortgaged Property is a condominium unit or a planned
unit development (other than a de minimis planned unit development) such
condominium or planned unit development project meets Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx
Mac eligibility requirements for sale to Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac, as the
case may be, or is located in a condominium or planned unit development
project which has received Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac project approval or as to
which Xxxxxx Mae's and Xxxxxxx Mac's eligibility requirements have been
waived.
(xxxviii) The Seller used no adverse selection procedures in selecting
the Mortgage Loan from among the outstanding first-lien, residential mortgage
loans owned by it which were available for inclusion in the Mortgage Loans.
(xxxix) Each Mortgage Loan is a "qualified mortgage" within Section
860G(a)(3) of the Code.
(xl) With respect to each Mortgage where a lost note affidavit has been
delivered to the Trustee in place of the related Mortgage Note, the related
Mortgage Note is no longer in existence.
(xli) No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar
occurrence with respect to the Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of
the Seller, the Servicer or any originator or servicer or the Mortgagor or on
the part of any other party involved in the origination of the Mortgage Loan.
(xlii) The origination practices used by the originator of the Mortgage
Loan with respect to each Mortgage Loan have been in all respects legal,
proper, prudent and customary in the mortgage origination industry.
(xliii) The Mortgagor is not in bankruptcy and is not insolvent and the
Seller does not have any knowledge of any circumstances or condition with
respect to the Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or the
Mortgagor's credit standing that could reasonably be expected to cause
investors to regard the Mortgage Loan as an unacceptable investment, cause the
Mortgage Loan to become delinquent or materially adversely affect the value or
the marketability of the Mortgage Loan.
(xliv) The Mortgagor has not notified the Seller, and the Seller has no
knowledge of any relief requested or allowed to the Mortgagor under the
Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act of 1940.

or rehabilitation of a Mortgaged Property or (2) facilitating the trade-in or

affairs exists or has existed that has resulted or will result in the

hazard insurance policy, Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy or bankruptcy bond,
irrespective of the cause of such failure of coverage. In connection with the
placement of any such insurance, no commission, fee, or other compensation has
been or will be received by the Seller or the Servicer or any designee of the
Seller or the Servicer or any corporation in which the Seller, the Servicer or
any officer, director, or employee of the Seller or the Servicer had a
financial interest at the time of placement of such insurance.
