Section 2.02 Reserved.

Section 2.03 Obligations of Seller Upon Sale. In connection with any 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 or to the Owner Trustee as assignee of the Purchaser, as applicable, pursuant to this Agreement and (b) to deliver to the Purchaser or at the direction of the Purchaser, to the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, a computer file containing a true and complete list of all such Mortgage Loans specifying, among other things, for each such Mortgage Loan, as of the Cut-Off Date, (1) its account number and (2) the Cut-Off Date Principal Balance. Such file, which forms a part of Exhibit A to the Sale 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 transfer by the Seller, the Seller agrees to:

(i) on behalf of the Purchaser, on or before the Closing Date, deliver to and deposit with the Purchaser or, at the direction of the Purchaser, to the Indenture Trustee (or its designee), the Mortgage Loan Schedule in computer readable format; and

(ii) on behalf of the Purchaser, deliver to and deposit with the Custodian, for the benefit of the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer, the following documents or instruments with respect to each Mortgage Loan so assigned:

(A) the original Mortgage Note, endorsed in blank, or a copy of such original Mortgage Note with an accompanying Lost Note Affidavit;

(B) the original Assignment of Mortgage from the Seller to “The Bank of New York, as Indenture Trustee for First Horizon ABS Trust 2006-HE1”, which assignment shall be in form and substance acceptable for recording;

(C) the original recorded Mortgage or a copy of such recorded Mortgage, certified by the Seller as being a true and complete copy thereof; provided that if the original Mortgage has been delivered for recording to the appropriate public recording office of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located but has not yet been returned to the Seller by such recording office, the Seller shall deliver to the Custodian a copy of such original Mortgage, certified by the Seller as being a true and complete copy thereof and certifying that such original Mortgage has been so delivered to such recording office; in all such instances, the Seller shall deliver or cause to be delivered to the Custodian the original recorded Mortgage, or a copy thereof, certified by the Seller as being a true and complete copy thereof, promptly upon its receipt thereof;

3

(D) (i) if the Credit Limit for such Mortgage Loan is greater than $1,000,000, the original attorney’s opinion of title or the original policy of title insurance, or a copy of the original attorney’s opinion of title or the original policy of title insurance, certified by the Seller as being a true and complete copy thereof; or (ii) if the Credit Limit for such Mortgage Loan is equal to or less than $1,000,000, the Seller may deliver to the Custodian an original lender’s policy of title insurance or a copy of the original lender’s policy of title insurance of a copy thereof, certified by the Seller as being a true and complete copy thereof, or appropriate evidence of lien protection coverage; or (iii) if the Mortgage Loan is a “combo loan” pursuant to which the Seller has also originated the related Senior Lien, the Seller may deliver to the Custodian a copy of the original attorney’s opinion of title or the original policy of title insurance for the first lien mortgage loan;

(E) all original intervening recorded assignments, or copies of such intervening assignments certified by the Seller as being true and complete copies of the interim assignments (each such assignment, when duly and validly completed, to be in recordable form and sufficient to effect the assignment of and transfer to the assignee thereof, under the related Mortgage); provided that if the related Mortgage has not been returned from the applicable public recording office, such assignment of the Mortgage may exclude the information to be provided by the recording office; and

(F) originals of all assumption and modification agreements, if any, or copies thereof, certified by the Seller as being true and complete copies thereof,

provided, however, that as to any Mortgage Loan, if as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered to and in form and substance satisfactory to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee, the Insurer and the Rating Agencies, (x) an optical image or other representation of the related documents specified in clause (ii)(C) above is enforceable in the relevant jurisdictions to the same extent as the original of such document and (y) such optical image or other representation does not impair the ability of an owner of such Mortgage Loan to transfer or perfect its interest in such Mortgage Loan, such optical image or other representation may be delivered as required in clause (ii) above.

The Seller hereby confirms to the Purchaser that it has made the appropriate entries in its general accounting records, to indicate clearly and unambiguously that such Mortgage Loans have been sold to the Purchaser by the Seller, sold by the Purchaser to the Trust and pledged by the Trust to the Indenture Trustee and constitute part of the Trust in accordance with the terms of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

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 Section 2.01 above.

The Seller hereby acknowledges that, within 90 days following the occurrence of an Assignment Event specified in clause (i) of the definition thereof, the Seller shall (i) segregate (a) the Related Documents from documents and instruments relating to mortgage loans that are not Mortgage Loans and (b) the Mortgage Note from the Related Documents for each Mortgage Loan and shall assemble and maintain the Mortgage Notes together (separate and apart from the Related Documents) and (ii) prepare an Assignment of Mortgage for each Mortgage Loan. The Assignments of Mortgage will be held by the Seller pursuant to Section 2.01(b) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

4

The Seller acknowledges that the Indenture Trustee is required to review the Mortgage Notes and Related Documents in the case of any delivery required upon the occurrence of an Assignment Event pursuant to Sections 2.01(d) and (e) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement and if the Indenture Trustee finds any document or documents not to have been properly executed, or to be missing or to be defective in any material respect, the Indenture Trustee is required to notify the Seller. If the Seller does not within the time period specified in Section 2.02(b) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement correct or cure such omission or document deficiency, the Seller shall either repurchase such relevant Mortgage Loan directly from the Trust or substitute an Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan for such Mortgage Loan, in either case, within the time frame and in the manner specified in Section 2.02(b) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Seller hereby agrees to take such actions described in Section 2.01(a) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement as are necessary to complete and file any UCC Financing Statements and any continuation statements required to perfect and protect the Purchaser's interest in the Mortgage Loans.

Section 2.04 Payment of Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loans. (a) In consideration of the sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to the Purchaser on or before 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 the sum of $298,900,600 in respect of the Mortgage Loans (the “Purchase Price”). The Purchaser shall pay all expenses it incurs in connection with the Trust's issuance of the Notes, including, without limitation, printing fees incurred in connection with the prospectus relating to the Notes, blue sky registration fees and expenses, fees and expenses of Purchaser's counsel, fees of the rating agencies requested to rate the Notes, accountant's fees and expenses and the fees of the Insurer as set forth in the Insurance and Indemnity Agreement.

(b) Each Mortgage Note permits the related Mortgagor to make Draws against its Mortgage Loan. Such Draws will create Additional Balances, which Additional Balances the Seller shall sell to the Purchaser or its assignee from time to time. In consideration of the sale of Additional Balances by the Seller to the Purchaser from time to time, the Purchaser agrees to pay the Seller on the date any such Additional Balance is delivered an amount equal to the outstanding principal balance of such Additional Balance. Payment will be made, (i) during the Managed Amortization Period, (A) from Principal Collections, to the extent that Principal Collections exceed Draws, and/or (B) by increasing the value of the Transferor Interest, to the extent that Draws exceed Principal Collections, and (ii) during the Rapid Amortization Period, by increasing the value of the Transferor Interest. Any increase in the value of the Transferor Interest, which shall initially be held by the Seller, will result in a corresponding increase in the value of the Seller's interest in the Purchaser.

5

(c) The Seller, at its expense, shall within 90 days of an Assignment Event cause the Custodian to submit to the appropriate recording offices Assignments of Mortgage to the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Trust, which may be blanket assignments if permitted by applicable law, for the Mortgage Loans. In lieu of recording any such Assignments of Mortgage, the Custodian, at its expense, may provide to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer and Opinion of Counsel in a form reasonably acceptable to the Indenture Trustee and the Insurer, to the effect that recordation of an Assignment of Mortgage in one or more states where the related Mortgaged Properties are located is not necessary to protect the interests of the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Class A Noteholders in the related Mortgage Loans. In the event that any such Assignment of Mortgage is lost or returned unrecorded because of a defect therein, the Seller, at its own expense, shall promptly prepare a substitute Assignment of Mortgage or cure such defect, as the case may be, and thereafter the Seller shall be required to submit each such Assignment of Mortgage for recording. Any failure of the Seller to comply with this Section shall result in the obligation of the Seller to repurchase or substitute an Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan for the related Mortgage Loan pursuant to the provisions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.

The Purchaser and the Seller 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 any Series of Notes secured by the Mortgage Loans.

Section 6.07 Intention of the Parties. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser be, and be construed as, an absolute sale thereof for all purposes, other than for tax purposes. It is, further, not the intention of the parties that such conveyances be deemed a pledge thereof by the Seller to the Purchaser. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held to be the property of the Seller or the Purchaser, respectively, or if for any other reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in such assets, then (i) this Agreement shall be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of the Uniform Commercial Code of the State of New York and (ii) the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be an assignment and a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser of a security interest in all of the Mortgage Loans, whether now owned or hereafter acquired. 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 Agreement. The Seller and the Purchaser shall arrange for filing any Uniform Commercial Code continuation statements in connection with any security interest granted hereby. The Insurer and its successors and assigns shall be a third-party beneficiary to the provisions of this Agreement, and shall be entitled to rely upon and to directly enforce such provisions of this Agreement.

Section 6.08 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, the Insurer, the Owner Trustee and the Indenture Trustee. The obligations of the Seller under this Agreement cannot be assigned or delegated to a third party without the consent of the Purchaser and the Insurer, which consent shall be at the Purchaser's and the Insurer's reasonable discretion, except that the Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that the Seller may with the consent of the Insurer 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 a series of notes secured by 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 Owner Trustee and the assignment by the Owner Trustee to the Indenture Trustee, for the benefit of the Class A Noteholders and the Insurer, of all of the Purchaser's rights against the Seller pursuant to this Agreement insofar as such rights relate to Mortgage Loans transferred to such Owner Trustee and to the enforcement or exercise of any right or remedy against the Seller pursuant to this Agreement by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee under the Sale and Servicing Agreement and the Indenture. Such enforcement of a right or remedy by the Owner Trustee or the Indenture Trustee shall have the same force and effect as if the right or remedy had been enforced or exercised by the Purchaser directly.

11

Section 6.09 Survival. The representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 hereof shall survive the purchase of the Mortgage Loans hereunder.
