Section 5(c). If the Seller intends to make such a repurchase other
than on a Repurchase Date, the Seller shall give one (1) Business Day's

Mortgage Loans to be repurchased. If such notice is given, the amount
specified in such notice shall be due and payable on the date specified

original Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loan thus repurchased shall be
available for subsequent Transactions subject to the terms of this
Repurchase Agreement.
(k) On the Repurchase Date, termination of the Transaction will be
effected by transfer to Seller or its designee of the Purchased
Mortgage Loans (and any Income in respect thereof received by Buyer not
previously credited or transferred to, or applied to the obligations
of, Seller pursuant to Section 5) against the simultaneous transfer of
the Repurchase Price to an account of Buyer. Seller is obligated to
obtain the Mortgage Files from Buyer or its designee (including the
Trustee) at Seller's expense on the Repurchase Date.
(l) With respect to all Transactions hereunder, the aggregate Purchase
Price for all Purchased Mortgage Loans at any one time subject to then
outstanding Transactions under this Repurchase Agreement shall not
exceed the Maximum Purchase Amount minus the aggregate principal amount
of outstanding Loans under the Loan Agreement. Notwithstanding the
preceding sentence, Buyer shall have no obligation to enter into any
Transaction if, as a result of such transaction the aggregate Purchase
Price for all Transactions subject to then outstanding Transactions
under this Repurchase Agreement shall exceed the Available Committed
Purchase Amount. Buyer shall not enter into any Transaction if the
aggregate Purchase Price of such Purchased Mortgage Loans exceeds the
Available Purchase Amount.
4. MARGIN AMOUNT MAINTENANCE
(a) If at any time the aggregate Collateral Value of the related
Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to all Transactions is less than the
aggregate Purchase Price for all such Transactions (a "Margin
Deficit"), then Buyer may by notice to Seller require Seller to
transfer to Buyer or its designee (including the Trustee) Mortgage
Loans or cash ("Additional Purchased Loans"), so that the cash and
aggregate Collateral Value of the
-18-
19
Purchased Mortgage Loans, including any such Additional Purchased
Loans, will thereupon equal or exceed the aggregate Margin Amount.
(b) If at any time the aggregate Collateral Value of all Purchased
Mortgage Loans subject to all Transactions exceeds the aggregate
Purchase Price for all such Transactions (a "Margin Excess"), then
Seller may by notice to Buyer require Buyer in such Transactions, to
transfer or cause to be transferred to Seller or its designee Purchased
Mortgage Loans or cash so that the cash and aggregate Collateral Value
of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, after deduction of any such Mortgage
Loans or cash so transferred, will thereupon not exceed the aggregate
Margin Amount.
(c) Seller may provide notice pursuant to subsection (b) hereof by
preparing a Request for Release of Mortgage Loans in the form of
Exhibit K to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement ("Notice of Release of
Pledge"), specifying (1) the Purchased Mortgage Loans to be released
and the requested release date, (2) the aggregate Collateral Value with
respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans, (3) the remaining aggregate
Collateral Value after giving effect to the transfer of the Purchased
Mortgage Loans, (4) the aggregate Purchase Price of the Transactions,
and (5) a certification from the Seller that, upon release of the
Purchased Mortgage Loans, there will not be a Margin Deficit.
(d) The Seller shall transmit the Notice of Release of Pledge by
facsimile transmission to the Buyer. Upon confirming that the Notice of
Release of Pledge correctly reflects the information set forth in
Section 4(c) and that, after giving effect to the requested release the
Collateral Value would be equal to or greater than the aggregate
Purchase Price of the Transactions, the Buyer shall countersign the
Notice of Release of Pledge and transmit the countersigned Notice of
Release of Pledge to the Trustee. In the event that the Buyer's
assessment of the Collateral Value would alter the information set
forth in any Request for Release, the Buyer shall promptly notify the
Seller in writing of such assessment.
(e) Upon receipt of the countersigned Notice of Release of Pledge and
upon approval of the Notice of Release of Pledge by the Buyer, the
Trustee shall take the actions set forth in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loan to be released.
(f) The Buyer shall not be obligated to countersign a Notice of Release
of Pledge (i) which the Buyer reasonably determines is based on
erroneous information or would result in a transfer of Purchased
Mortgage Loans other than in accordance with the terms of this
Repurchase Agreement, or (ii) which does not reflect the Buyer's
current determination of Collateral Value.
5. INCOME PAYMENTS
(a) Where a particular Transaction's term extends over an Income
payment date on the Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to that
Transaction such Income shall be the
-19-
20
property of Buyer. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer agrees that
until an Event of Default has occurred and is continuing and Buyer
otherwise directs, Servicer shall continue to remit Income to Seller in
accordance with the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(b) Notwithstanding that Buyer and Seller intend that the Transactions
hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Seller
shall pay to Buyer the accreted value of the Price Differential (less
any amount of such Price Differential previously paid by Seller to
Buyer) (each such payment, a "Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment") on
the first Business Day of each month (each, a "Payment Date"). If
Seller fails to make all or part of the Periodic Advance Repurchase
Payment by 3:00 p.m. (New York time) on the Payment Date, Seller shall
be obligated to pay to Buyer (in addition to, and together with, the
Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment) interest on the unpaid amount of
the Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment at a rate per annum equal to
the Eurodollar Base Rate plus 2.00% (the "Late Payment Fee") until the
Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment is received in full by Buyer.
(c) Buyer shall offset against the Repurchase Price of each such
Transaction all Income and Periodic Advance Repurchase Payments
actually received by Buyer pursuant to Sections 5(a) and (b),
respectively, excluding any Late Payment Fees paid pursuant to Section
5(b).
6. SECURITY INTEREST
(a) Each of the following items or types of property, whether now owned
or hereafter acquired, now existing or hereafter created and wherever
located, is hereinafter referred to as the ("Collateral"): all Mortgage
Loans, all Underlying Obligations and all Affiliate Transfers, all
Affiliate Transfer Documents and all Mortgage Loan Documents, including
without limitation all promissory notes, all servicing records,
servicing agreements and any other collateral pledged or otherwise
relating to such Mortgage Loans, together with all files, documents,

Mortgaged Property or to any Affiliate Transfer or to any Underlying
Obligation, all purchase agreements or other agreements or contracts
(other than Interest Rate Protection Agreements, which are expressly
excluded herefrom), relating to, constituting, or otherwise governing,
any or all of the foregoing to the extent they relate to the Mortgage
Loans including the right to receive principal and interest payments
with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans and the right to enforce
such payments, all Collection Accounts and any funds on deposit in
Collection Accounts to the extent such funds represent proceeds from
the Mortgage Loans
-20-
21
(as defined in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), if any, all
Pledged Certificates evidencing any or all of the Mortgage Loans, the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement as it relates to or constitutes any or
all of the foregoing, all "general intangibles", "accounts", and
"chattel paper" as defined in the Uniform Commercial Code relating to
or constituting any and all of the foregoing, all collateral under the
Loan Agreement, any and all replacements, substitutions, distributions
on or proceeds of any and all of the foregoing.
(b) All right, title and interest of the Seller in and to (i) the
Collateral and (ii) any and all replacements or substitutions for,
distributions on or proceeds of any of the foregoing is hereinafter
referred to as the "Seller Collateral". All right, title and interest
of the Pledgors in and to (i) the Collateral (but excluding any and all
obligations of the Pledgors thereunder) and (ii) any and all
replacements or substitutions for, distributions on or proceeds of any
of the foregoing is hereinafter referred to as the "Pledgor
Collateral".
(c) The Buyer and the Seller intend that the Transactions hereunder be
sales to the Buyer of the Purchased Mortgage Loans and not loans from
the Buyer to the Seller secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans.
However, in order to preserve the Buyer's rights under this Repurchase
Agreement in the event that a court or other forum recharacterizes the
Transactions hereunder as loans and as security for the performance by
the Seller of all of the Seller's obligations to the Buyer hereunder
and the Transactions entered into hereunder (the "Secured
Obligations"), the Seller hereby assigns and pledges to the Buyer for
its benefit and the ratable benefit of its assignees hereunder, and
grants to the Buyer and its assignees hereunder, a security interest in
the Collateral. The assignment, pledge and grant of security interest
contained herein shall be, and the Seller hereby represents and
warrants to the Buyer that it is, a first priority security interest.
All Collateral shall secure the payment of all obligations of the
Seller now or hereafter existing under the Repurchase Agreement,
including, without limitation, Seller's obligation to repurchase
Mortgage Loans, or if such obligation is so recharacterized as a loan,
to repay such loan, for the Repurchase Price and to pay any and all
other amounts owing to the Buyer hereunder.
(d) To further secure the Secured Obligations and to induce the Buyer
to enter into Transactions with the Seller, the Pledgors hereby assign
and pledge to the Buyer for its benefit and the ratable benefit of its
assignees hereunder, and grants to the Buyer and its assignees
hereunder, a security interest in the Pledgor Collateral.
The parties hereto recognize that the Pledgors are not obligors
hereunder and are entering into this Repurchase Agreement solely for
the purpose of pledging their interest in the Pledgor Collateral to
secure the Seller's obligations hereunder and the Buyer will have no
recourse against the Pledgors (except to the extent of the Pledgor's
interest in the Pledgor Collateral) for any obligations of the Pledgors
or Seller to the Buyer. The assignment, pledge and grant of security
interest contained herein shall
-21-
22
be, and the Pledgors hereby represent and warrant to the Buyer that it
is, a first priority security interest.
7. PAYMENT, TRANSFER AND CUSTODY
(a) Unless otherwise mutually agreed in writing, all transfers of funds
hereunder shall be in immediately available funds.
(b) On the Purchase Date for each Transaction, ownership of the
Purchased Mortgage Loans shall be transferred to the Buyer or its
designee (including the Trustee) against the simultaneous transfer of
the Purchase Price to an account of Seller specified in the
Confirmation. Seller, simultaneously with the delivery to the Trustee
of the Purchased Mortgage Loans relating to each Transaction hereby
sells, transfers, conveys and assigns to Buyer or its designee
(including the Trustee) without recourse, but subject to the terms of
this Repurchase Agreement, all the right, title and interest of Seller
in and to the Purchased Mortgage Loans together with all right, title
and interest in and to the proceeds of any related insurance policies.
(c) Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Repurchase
Agreement, including agreements to enter into a Transaction pursuant to
Section 3, Buyer shall have no obligation to purchase any Mortgage
Loans on any Purchase Date if, after such purchase:
(i) an Event of Default by the Seller will have occurred
and be continuing, or an Event of Default by the
Seller would occur with notice or the passing of
time; or
(ii) the Repurchase Date for such Transaction would be
later than the Termination Date or such other time
period prescribed in the applicable Confirmation.
(d) Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee shall
hold the Mortgage Loan Documents delivered to the Trustee as exclusive
bailee and agent for the Buyer pursuant to terms of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement and shall deliver to the Buyer Pledged
Certificates, each to the effect that it has reviewed such Mortgage
Loan Documents in the manner and to the extent required by the Pooling
and Servicing Agreement and identifying any deficiencies in such
Mortgage Loan Documents for the Mortgage Loans identified in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule and Collateral Report (in the form of Exhibit I
to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement) as so reviewed.
8. HYPOTHECATION OR PLEDGE OF PURCHASED MORTGAGE LOANS
Title to all Purchased Mortgage Loans shall pass to Buyer and Buyer
shall have free and unrestricted use of all Purchased Mortgage Loans.
Nothing in this Repurchase Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging
in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Mortgage Loans or
otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring,
-22-
23
hypothecating, or rehypothecating the Purchased Mortgage Loans, but no
such transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligations to transfer
Purchased Mortgage Loans to Seller pursuant to Section 3. Nothing
contained in this Repurchase Agreement shall obligate Buyer to
segregate any Purchased Mortgage Loans delivered to Buyer by Seller.
Notwithstanding the foregoing, Buyer agrees to take such actions as are
necessary or desirable to release or cause to be released its lien and
security interest in any Purchased Mortgage Loans which are securitized
(which release shall be deemed to occur not later than simultaneously
with such securitization) and to promptly deliver or cause to be
delivered to the Seller the Mortgage File relating to any such Mortgage
Loan. Upon repurchase of the Purchased Mortgage Loans or payment in
full of the Secured Obligations, Buyer shall take such actions as are
necessary to release or cause to be released its lien and security
interest in the Collateral and to cause all Mortgage Files with respect
to such repurchased Purchased Mortgage Loans to be returned to the
Seller.
9. INDEMNIFICATION AND EXPENSES
(a) The Seller agrees to hold the Buyer harmless from and indemnify the
Buyer against all liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and
expenses of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted
against the Buyer (collectively, "Costs"), relating to or arising out
of this Repurchase Agreement, any other Repurchase Document or any
transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, or any amendment,
supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in
respect of, this Repurchase Agreement, any other Repurchase Document or
any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, that, in each case,
results from anything other than the Buyer's gross negligence or
willful misconduct. In any suit, proceeding or action brought by the
Buyer in connection with any Mortgage Loan for any sum owing
thereunder, or to enforce any provisions of any Mortgage Loan, the
Seller will save, indemnify and hold the Buyer harmless from and
against all expense, loss or damage suffered by reason of any defense,
set-off, counterclaim, recoupment or reduction or liability whatsoever
of the account debtor or obligor thereunder, arising out of a breach by
the Seller or the Guarantor of any obligation thereunder or arising out
of any other agreement, indebtedness or liability at any time owing to
or in favor of such account debtor or obligor or its successors from
the Seller or the Guarantor. The Seller also agrees to reimburse the
Buyer as and when billed by the Buyer for all the Buyer's costs and
expenses incurred in connection with the enforcement or the
preservation of the Buyer's rights under this Repurchase Agreement, any
other Repurchase Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or
thereby, including without limitation the reasonable fees and
disbursements of its counsel.
(b) The Seller agrees to pay as and when billed by the Buyer all of the
out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by the Buyer in connection
with the development, preparation and execution of, and any amendment,
supplement or modification to, this Repurchase Agreement, any other
Repurchase Document or any other documents prepared in connection
herewith or therewith. The Seller agrees to pay as and when
-23-
24
billed by the Buyer all of the out-of-pocket costs and expenses
incurred in connection with the consummation and administration of the
transactions contemplated hereby and thereby including without
limitation all the reasonable fees, disbursements and expenses of
counsel to the Buyer which amount shall be deducted from the Purchase
Price paid for the first Transaction hereunder. Subject to the
limitations set forth in Section 27 hereof, the Seller agrees to pay
the Buyer all the due diligence, inspection, testing and review costs
and expenses incurred by the Buyer with respect to Mortgage Loans
submitted by Seller for purchase under this Repurchase Agreement,
including, but not limited to, those costs and expenses incurred by the
Buyer pursuant to Sections 9(a), 24 and 27 hereof.
10. REPRESENTATIONS

the Purchase Date, be obtained;
(iv) No Conflicts. The execution, delivery, and
performance of this Repurchase Agreement and the
Transactions hereunder will not violate any law,
regulation, order, judgment, decree, ordinance,
charter, by-law, or rule applicable to the Buyer or
its property or constitute a
-24-
25

time, or both would constitute a default) under or
result in a breach of any agreement or other
instrument by which it is bound or by which any of
its assets are affected; and
(v) Solvency. Neither this Repurchase Agreement nor any
Transaction pursuant hereto are entered into in
contemplation of insolvency or with intent to hinder,
delay or defraud any creditor.
(b) The Seller (and the Pledgors, as applicable) represents and

expect to become, insolvent;
(iii) No Broker. The Seller has not dealt with any broker,
investment banker, agent, or other person, except for
the Buyer, who may be entitled to any commission or
compensation in connection with the sale of Purchased
Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Repurchase Agreement;

continuing hereunder;
(vi) Existence Each Repurchase Agreement Party (a) is a

its organization, (b) has all requisite corporate or
other power, and has all governmental licenses,
authorizations, consents and approvals necessary to
own its assets and carry on its business as now being

approvals would not be reasonably likely to have a
material adverse effect on its Property, business or
financial condition taken as a whole; and (c) is
qualified to do business and is in good standing in
all other jurisdictions in which the nature of
-25-
26
the business conducted by it makes such qualification

the aggregate) to have a material adverse effect on
its Property, business or financial condition taken
as a whole.
(vii) Financial Condition. The Guarantor has heretofore
furnished to the Buyer a copy of (a) its consolidated
balance sheet and the consolidated balance sheets of
their consolidated Subsidiaries for the fiscal year
ended December 31, 1997, and the related consolidated

Subsidiaries for such fiscal year, with the opinion
thereon of Xxxxxx Xxxxxxxx LLP. All such financial
statements are complete and correct and fairly

financial condition of the Guarantor and its
Subsidiaries and the consolidated results of their
operations as at such dates and for such fiscal
periods, all in accordance with GAAP applied on a
consistent basis except, in the case of interim
financial statements, for the absence of footnotes

the consolidated business, operations or financial
condition of the Guarantor and its consolidated
Subsidiaries taken as a whole from that set forth in
said financial statements.

Buyer, there are no actions, suits, arbitrations,
investigations or proceedings pending or, to the
Seller's knowledge, threatened against the Seller or
the Guarantor or any of their Subsidiaries or
affecting any of the Property of any of them before
any Governmental Authority (i) as to which
individually or in the aggregate there is a
reasonable likelihood of an adverse decision which

-41-
42
(iii) Upon the occurrence of one or more Events of Default,
the Buyer shall have the right to obtain physical
possession of the Servicing Records (subject to the
provisions of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement)
and all other files of the Seller relating to the
Purchased Mortgage Loans and all documents relating
to the Purchased Mortgage Loans which are then or may
thereafter come in to the possession of any
Repurchase Agreement Party or any third party acting
for any Repurchase Agreement Party and such
Repurchase Agreement Party shall deliver to the Buyer
such assignments as the Buyer shall request. The
Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance of
all agreements of the Repurchase Agreement Parties
contained in the Repurchase Documents, and to the
rights conferred on Buyer under Section 4.07 of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
(b) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, the Buyer may
exercise, in addition to all other rights and remedies granted to it in
this Repurchase Agreement and in the Pooling and Servicing Agreement
and in any other instrument or agreement securing, evidencing or
relating to the Secured Obligations, all rights and remedies of a
secured party under the Uniform Commercial Code. Without limiting the
generality of the foregoing, the Buyer without demand of performance or
other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind
(except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon the
Sellers or any other Person (each and all of which demands,
presentments, protests, advertisements and notices are hereby waived),
may in such circumstances forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and
realize upon the Collateral, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith
sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise
dispose of and deliver the Collateral or any part thereof (or contract
to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels or as an entirety
at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker's board or
office of the Buyer or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions as it
may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or
on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk.
The Buyer shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and,
to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, to
purchase the whole or any part of the Collateral so sold, free of any
right or equity of redemption in the Sellers, which right or equity is
hereby waived or released. The Sellers further agree, at the Buyer's
request, to assemble the Collateral and make it available to the Buyer
at places which the Buyer shall reasonably select, whether at the
Sellers' premises or elsewhere. The Buyer shall apply the net proceeds
of any such collection, recovery, receipt, appropriation, realization
or sale, after deducting all reasonable costs and expenses of every
kind incurred therein or incidental to the care or safekeeping of any
of the Collateral or in any way relating to the Collateral or the
rights of the Buyer hereunder, including without limitation reasonable
attorneys' fees and disbursements, to the payment in whole or in part
of the Secured Obligations, in such order as the Buyer may elect, and

other amount required or permitted by any provision of law, including
without limitation Section 9-504(1)(c) of the Uniform Commercial
-42-
43
Code, need the Buyer account for the surplus, if any, to the Sellers.
To the extent permitted by applicable law, the Sellers waive all
claims, damages and demands they may acquire against the Buyer arising
out of the exercise by the Buyer of any of its rights hereunder, other
than those claims, damages and demands arising from the gross
negligence or willful misconduct of the Buyer. If any notice of a
proposed sale or other disposition of Collateral shall be required by
law, such notice shall be deemed reasonable and proper if given at
least 10 days before such sale or other disposition. The Sellers shall
remain liable for any deficiency (plus accrued interest thereon as
contemplated pursuant to Section 5(b) hereof) if the proceeds of any
sale or other disposition of the Collateral are insufficient to pay the
Secured Obligations and the fees and disbursements of any attorneys
employed by the Buyer to collect such deficiency.
(c) If an Event of Default shall occur and be continuing, (a) all
proceeds of Collateral received by any Seller consisting of cash,
checks and other near-cash items shall be held by such Seller in trust
for the Buyer, segregated from other funds of such Seller, and shall
forthwith upon receipt by such Seller be turned over to the Buyer in
the exact form received by such Seller (duly endorsed by such Seller to
the Buyer, if required) and (b) any and all such proceeds received by
the Buyer (whether from a Seller or otherwise) may, in the sole
discretion of the Buyer, be held by the Buyer as collateral security
for, and/or then or at any time thereafter may be applied by the Buyer
against, the Secured Obligations (whether matured or unmatured), such
application to be in such order as the Buyer shall elect. Any balance
of such proceeds remaining after the Secured Obligations shall have
been paid in full and this Repurchase Agreement shall have been
terminated shall be paid promptly over to the Sellers or to whomsoever
may be lawfully entitled to receive the same. For purposes hereof,
proceeds shall include, but not be limited to, all principal and
interest payments, all prepayments and payoffs, insurance claims,
condemnation awards, sale proceeds, real estate owned rents and any
other income and all other amounts received with respect to the
Collateral.
(d) The Buyer's duty with respect to the custody, safekeeping and
physical preservation of the Collateral in its possession, under
Section 9-207 of the Uniform Commercial Code or otherwise, shall be to
deal with it in the same manner as the Buyer deals with similar
property for its own account. Neither the Buyer nor any of its
directors, officers or employees shall be liable for failure to demand,
collect or realize upon all or any part of the Collateral or for any
delay in doing so or shall be under any obligation to sell or otherwise
dispose of any Collateral upon the request of any Seller or otherwise.
14. RECORDING OF COMMUNICATIONS
Buyer and Seller shall have the right (but not the obligation) from
time to time to make or cause to be made tape recordings of
communications between its employees and those of the other party with
respect to Transactions. Buyer and Seller consent to the admissibility
of such tape recordings in any court, arbitration, or other
proceedings.
-43-
44
The parties agree that a duly authenticated transcript of such a tape
recording shall be deemed to be a writing conclusively evidencing the
parties' agreement.

Buyer and Seller acknowledge that, and have entered hereinto and will
enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in
reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a
single business and contractual relationship and that each has been
entered into in consideration of the other Transactions. Accordingly,
each of Buyer and Seller agrees (i) to perform all of its obligations
in respect of each Transaction hereunder, and that a default in the
performance of any such obligations shall constitute a default by it in
respect of all Transactions hereunder, (ii) that each of them shall be
entitled to set off claims and apply property held by them in respect
of any Transaction against obligations owing to them in respect of any
other Transaction hereunder and (iii) that payments, deliveries, and
other transfers made by either of them in respect of any Transaction
shall be deemed to have been made in consideration of payments,
deliveries, and other transfers in respect of any other Transactions
hereunder, and the obligations to make any such payments, deliveries,
and other transfers may be applied against each other and netted.

statements, representations, promises or undertakings not contained in

EXHIBIT II
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES RE: MORTGAGE LOANS
Part I. Eligible Mortgage Loans
As to each residential Mortgage Loan purchased by Buyer on a Purchase
Date (and the related Mortgage, Mortgage Note, Assignment of Mortgage and
Mortgaged Property), the Seller shall be deemed to make the following
representations and warranties to the Buyer as of such date and as of each date
Collateral Value is determined (certain defined terms used herein and not
otherwise defined in the Repurchase Agreement appearing in Part III to this
Exhibit II). With respect to any representations and warranties made to the best
of any Seller's knowledge, in the event that it is discovered that the
circumstances with respect to the related Mortgage Loan are not accurately
reflected in such representation and warranty notwithstanding the knowledge or
lack of knowledge of such Seller, then, notwithstanding that such representation
and warranty is made to the best of such Seller's knowledge, such Mortgage Loan
shall be assigned a Collateral Value of zero:
(a) Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the
Mortgage Loan Schedule with respect to the Mortgage Loan is complete, true and
correct in all material respects as of the date thereof.
(b) Payments Current. With respect to each Mortgage Loan other than a
Delinquent Mortgage Loan, no payment required under the Mortgage Loan is
delinquent beyond the applicable grace period. With respect to each 59-Day
Delinquent Mortgage Loan, no payment required under the Mortgage Loan is
delinquent in excess of 59 days (without regard to any grace period) and with
respect to each 89-Day Delinquent Loan, no payment required under the Mortgage
Loan is delinquent in excess of 89 days (without regard to any grace period).
(c) No Outstanding Charges. There are no material defaults in complying
with the terms of the Mortgage securing the Mortgage Loan, 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 an escrow of funds has been established in an amount
sufficient to pay for every such item which remains unpaid and which has been
assessed but is not yet due and payable. Neither the Seller nor the Qualified
Originator from which the Seller acquired the Mortgage Loan has advanced funds,
or induced, solicited or knowingly received 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 or date of disbursement of the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan,
whichever is earlier, to the day which precedes by one month the Due Date of the
first installment of principal and interest thereunder.
Schedule 1-1
56
(d) Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and
Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect,
from the date of origination (other than those which would not result in a
Material Adverse Effect); except by a written instrument which has been
recorded, if necessary to protect the interests of the Buyer, and which has been
delivered to the Trustee or the Bailee, as applicable, and the terms of which
are reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule. The substance of any such waiver,
alteration or modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent
required, and its terms are reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. No
Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan has been released, in whole or in
part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the title
insurer, to the extent required by such policy, and which assumption agreement
is part of the Mortgage File delivered to the Trustee and the terms of which are
reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule.
(e) Modification of Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan has not been
amended or modified in a manner that would materially and adversely effect the
value of such Mortgage Loan.
(f) No Defenses. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any valid and
enforceable 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 or the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right
thereunder, render either the Mortgage Note or the Mortgage unenforceable, in
whole or in part and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or
defense has been asserted with respect thereto, and, to the Seller's knowledge,
no Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan was a debtor in any state or
Federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at the time the Mortgage Loan was
originated other than in cases in which the Mortgage Loan was originated in
connection with a Mortgagor emerging from a bankruptcy and such Mortgage Loan
was approved by the trustee in bankruptcy. The Seller has neither knowledge nor
received any notice that any Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan is a
debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding.
(g) Hazard Insurance. The improvements upon the Mortgaged Property is
insured by a fire and extended perils insurance policy, issued by a Qualified
Insurer, and such other hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged
Property is located, and to the extent required by the Seller or Qualified
Originator as of the date of origination consistent with the Underwriting
Guidelines in an amount not less than the lesser of (i) the outstanding
principal balance of the related Mortgage Loan (together, in the case of a
Second Lien Mortgage Loan, with the outstanding principal balance of the First
Lien), (ii) the minimum amount required to compensate for damage or loss on a
replacement cost basis or, (iii) the full insurable value of the Mortgaged
Property. If required by the Federal Emergency Management Agency, if any portion
of the Mortgaged Property is in an area identified by any federal Governmental
Authority as having special flood hazards, and flood insurance is available, a
flood insurance policy meeting the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance
Administration is in effect with a generally acceptable insurance carrier
(unless the Underwriting Guidelines provide that such insurance is not necessary
if the portion of the Mortgaged Property in the flood area is limited to the
lot, and does not include the location of
Schedule 1-2
57
any structures), in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of
(1) the outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (2) the full
insurable value of the Mortgaged Property, and (3) the maximum amount of
insurance available under the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended.
All such insurance policies (collectively, the "hazard insurance policy")
contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the Seller, its successors and
assigns (including without limitation, subsequent owners of the Mortgage Loan),
as mortgagee, and may not be reduced, terminated or canceled without 30 days'
prior written notice to the mortgagee. No such notice has been received by the
Seller. All premiums on such insurance policy have been paid. The related
Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor to maintain all such insurance and, at such
Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the mortgagee to maintain such
insurance at the Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor
from such Mortgagor. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor
has been given an opportunity to choose the carrier of the required hazard
insurance, provided the policy is not a "master" or "blanket" hazard insurance
policy covering a condominium, or any hazard insurance policy covering the
common facilities of a planned unit development. The hazard insurance policy is
the valid and binding obligation of the insurer and is in full force and effect.
The Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor's having
engaged in, any act or omission which would impair the coverage of any such
policy, the benefits of the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and
binding effect of either including, without limitation, no unlawful fee,
commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has
been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other
Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by
the Seller.
(h) Compliance with Applicable Laws. Any and all requirements of any
federal, state or local law including, without limitation, usury,
truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer credit protection,
equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan at
the time it was originated have been complied with, the consummation of the
transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such laws
or regulations.
(i) No Satisfaction of Mortgage. The Mortgage has not been satisfied,
canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged
Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in
part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such release,
cancellation, subordination or rescission. 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, nor has any
Seller waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the
Mortgagor.
(j) Location and Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is
located in an Acceptable State as identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and
consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached single family
residence erected thereon, or a two- to four-family dwelling, or an individual
condominium unit in a low-rise condominium project, or an individual unit in a
planned unit development or a de minimis planned unit development, provided,
however, that no residence or dwelling is a mobile home. Other than
Schedule 1-3
58
with respect to Mixed Use Mortgage Loans, no portion of the Mortgaged Property
is used for commercial purposes.
(k) Valid Lien. The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable
(except as may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium
or other similar laws effecting creditors' rights generally and by general
principles of equity) and perfected (A) first lien and first priority security
interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller to
be a First Lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Tape) or (B) second lien and
second priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is
indicated by the Seller to be a Second Lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan
Tape), in either case, on the real property included in the Mortgaged Property,
including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property located in or annexed to such
buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time with
respect to the foregoing. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:
(1) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not
yet due and payable;
(2) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way,
easements and other exceptions to title acceptable to mortgage
lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in
the Seller's title insurance policy delivered to the
originator of the Mortgage Loan and (a) referred to or
otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator
of the Mortgage Loan or (b) which do not materially and
adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property
set forth in such appraisal;
(3) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject
which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the
security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use,
enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged
Property; and
(4) with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the
Seller to be a Second Lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the
Mortgage Loan Tape) a First Lien on the 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 (except as may be limited by bankruptcy,
insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws effecting
creditors' rights generally and by general principles of equity) (A) first lien
and first priority security interest with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is
indicated by a Seller to be a First Lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan
Tape) or (B) second lien and second priority security interest with respect to
each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by a Seller to be a Second Lien Mortgage
Loan (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Tape), in either case, on the property
described therein and such Seller has full right to pledge and assign the same
to the Buyer.
Schedule 1-4
59
(l) Validity of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage
and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor or guarantor, if
applicable, in connection with a Mortgage Loan are genuine, and each is the
legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable (except as
may be limited by bankruptcy, insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other
similar laws effecting creditors' rights generally and by general principles of
equity) in accordance with its terms. All parties to the Mortgage Note, the
Mortgage and any other such related agreement had legal capacity to enter into
the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and
any such agreement, and the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such
related agreement have been duly and properly executed by such related parties.
To the Seller' knowledge, no fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation,
negligence or similar occurrence with respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place
on the part of any Person, including, without limitation, the Mortgagor, any
appraiser, any builder or developer, or any other party involved in the
origination of the Mortgage Loan. The Seller have reviewed all of the documents
constituting the Servicing File and has made such inquiries as they deem
necessary to make and confirm the accuracy of the representations set forth
herein.
(m) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The Mortgage Loan has been closed
and the proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no
further requirement for future advances thereunder, and either (i) 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 or (ii) an
escrow of funds for the completion of any on-site or off-site improvements has
been established in an amount sufficient to make all repairs required by the
Qualified Originator to the Mortgaged Property. All costs, fees and expenses
incurred in making or closing the Mortgage Loan and the recording of the
Mortgage were paid, and the Mortgagor is not entitled to any refund of any
amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or Mortgage.
(n) Ownership. The Seller is the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage
Loan. The Mortgage Loan is not assigned or pledged, and the Seller has good,
indefeasible and marketable title thereto, and has full right to transfer,
pledge and assign the Mortgage Loan to the Buyer free and clear of any
encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or
security interest, and has full right and authority subject to no interest or
participation of, or agreement with, any other party (other than the interest of
the Trustee pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement), to assign,
transfer and pledge each Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Repurchase Agreement and
following the pledge of each Mortgage Loan, the Buyer will hold such Mortgage
Loan free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien,
pledge, charge, claim or security interest except any such security interest
created pursuant to the terms of this Repurchase Agreement.
(o) Doing Business. 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) (i) in
compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the
state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located, and (ii) either (A) organized
under the laws of such state, (B) qualified to do business
Schedule 1-5
60
in such state, (C) a federal savings and loan association, a savings bank or a
national bank having a principal office in such state, or (D) not doing business
in such state.
(p) LTV. No Mortgage Loan has an LTV greater than 100% or a CLTV
greater than 125%.
(q) Title Insurance. The Mortgage Loan is covered by either (i) an
attorney's opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of
which is acceptable to mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans in
the area wherein the Mortgaged Property is located or (ii) an ALTA Buyer's title
insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy or insurance and
each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer qualified to do
business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring
the Seller, their respective successors and assigns, as to the first priority
lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan (or
to the extent a Mortgage Note provides for negative amortization, the maximum
amount of negative amortization in accordance with the Mortgage), subject only
to the exceptions contained in clauses (1), (2), (3), and, with respect to each
Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller to be a Second Lien Mortgage Loan
(as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Tape) clause (4) of paragraph (j) of this
Part I of Schedule 1. Where required by state law or regulation, the Mortgagor
has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage
title insurance. Additionally, such Buyer's title insurance policy affirmatively
insures ingress and egress and against encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged
Property or any interest therein. The title policy does not contain any special
exceptions (other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses and has been
marked to delete the standard survey exception or to replace the standard survey
exception with a specific survey reading. The Seller, its respective successors
and assigns, are the sole insureds of the lender's title insurance policy, and
such lender's title insurance policy is valid and remains in full force and
effect and will be in force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Repurchase Agreement. No claims have been made under such
lender's title insurance policy, and, to the best of such Seller's knowledge, no
prior holder or servicer 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, including, without limitation, no unlawful fee,
commission, kickback or other unlawful compensation or value of any kind has
been or will be received, retained or realized by any attorney, firm or other
Person, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by
any Seller.
(r) No Defaults. There is no default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note (other than with
respect to 59-Day Delinquent Mortgage Loans for which payments are delinquent
for no more than fifty-nine (59) days and 89-Day Delinquent Mortgage Loans for
which payments are delinquent for no more than eighty-nine (89) days) and no
event has occurred 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, and neither the Seller nor their respective
predecessors have waived any default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration. With respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the
Seller to be a Second Lien Mortgage Loan
Schedule 1-6
61
(as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) (i) the prior mortgage is in full
force and effect, (ii) there is no default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration existing under such prior mortgage or the related mortgage note,
(iii) no event which, with the passage of time or with notice and the expiration
of any grace or cure period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or
event of acceleration thereunder, and either (A) the prior mortgage contains a
provision which allows or (B) applicable law requires, the mortgagee under the
Second Lien Mortgage Loan to receive notice of, and affords such mortgagee an
opportunity to cure any default by payment in full or otherwise under the prior
mortgage.
(s) No Mechanics' Liens. There are no mechanics' or similar liens or
claims which have been filed for work, labor or material (and no rights are
outstanding that under the law could give rise to such liens) affecting the
Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or coordinate
with, the lien of the Mortgage.
(t) Location of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements which
were considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lie
wholly within the boundaries and building restriction lines of the Mortgaged
Property, and no improvements on adjoining properties encroach upon the
Mortgaged Property. No improvement located on or being part of the Mortgaged
Property is in violation of any applicable zoning and building law, ordinance or
regulation.
(u) Origination; Payment Terms. The Mortgage Loan was originated by or
in conjunction with a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban
Development pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a
savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union,
insurance company or similar banking institution which is supervised and
examined by a federal or state authority. Principal payments on the Mortgage
Loan commenced no more than 60 days after funds were disbursed in connection
with the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Interest Rate is adjusted, with respect to
adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date to equal
the Index plus the Gross Margin (rounded up or down to the nearest .125%),
subject to the Mortgage Interest Rate Cap. The Mortgage Note is payable in equal
monthly installments of principal and interest, which installments of interest,
with respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, are subject to change due to the
adjustments to the Mortgage Interest Rate on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date,
with interest calculated and payable in arrears, sufficient to amortize the
Mortgage Loan fully by the stated maturity date, over an original term of not
more than 30 years from commencement of amortization; provided, however, in the
case of a Balloon Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Loan matures prior to full
amortization thereby requiring a balloon payment of the then outstanding
principal balance prior to full amortization of the Mortgage Loan. The due date
of the first payment under the Mortgage Note is no more than 60 days from the
date of the Mortgage Note.
(v) Customary Provisions. The Mortgage Note has a stated maturity. The
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, (i) in the case of a Mortgage
Schedule 1-7
62
designated as a deed of trust, by trustee's sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial
foreclosure. Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on,
or trustee's sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures,
the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable
title to the Mortgaged Property. There is no homestead or other exemption
available to a Mortgagor which would interfere with the right to sell the
Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right to foreclose the Mortgage.
(w) Conformance with Underwriting Guidelines and Agency Standards. The
Mortgage Loan was underwritten substantially in accordance with the applicable
Underwriting Guidelines. The Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms similar to
those used by FHLMC or FNMA and the Seller has not made any representations to a
Mortgagor that are inconsistent with the mortgage instruments used.
(x) Occupancy of the Mortgaged Property. As of the Purchase Date 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
and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the
appropriate authorities. The Seller has not received notification from any
governmental authority that the Mortgaged Property is in material non-compliance
with such laws or regulations, is being used, operated or occupied unlawfully or
has failed to have or obtain such inspection, licenses or certificates, as the
case may be. The Seller has not received notice of any violation or failure to
conform with any such law, ordinance, regulation, standard, license or
certificate.
(y) No Additional Collateral. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been
secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the
security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage
referred to in clause (j) above other than collateral which is not included in
any calculation of the LTV of such Mortgage Loan.
(z) Deeds of Trust. In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of
trust, a trustee, authorized and 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 Trustee or
the Buyer to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a
trustee's sale after default by the Mortgagor.
(aa) Delivery of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note, the Mortgage,
the Assignment of Mortgage and any other documents required to be delivered
under the Pooling and Servicing Agreement for each Mortgage Loan have been
delivered to the Trustee. The Seller or their respective agents are in
possession of a complete, true and accurate Mortgage File in compliance with the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, except for such documents the originals of
which have been delivered to the Trustee.
Schedule 1-8
63
(bb) Transfer of Mortgage Loans. The Assignment of Mortgage is in
recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the
jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located.
(cc) Due-On-Sale. 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.
(dd) Consolidation of Future Advances. Any future 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 (A) first lien priority with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is
indicated by the Seller to be a First Lien (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan
Tape) or (B) second lien priority with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is
indicated by the Seller to be a Second Lien Mortgage Loan (as reflected on the
Mortgage Loan Tape), in either case, by a title insurance policy, an endorsement
to the policy insuring the mortgagee's consolidated interest or by other title
evidence acceptable to FNMA and FHLMC. The consolidated principal amount does
not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.
(ee) Mortgaged Property Undamaged. To the best of the Seller's
knowledge, the Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or
earth movement, 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 and each Mortgaged Property is in good repair.
There have not been any condemnation proceedings with respect to the Mortgaged
Property and the Seller has no knowledge of any such proceedings.
(ff) Collection Practices; Escrow Deposits; Interest Rate Adjustments.
The origination and collection practices used by the originator, each servicer
of the Mortgage Loan and the Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been
in all respects in compliance with applicable laws and regulations and in all
material respects in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices, and have been
in all respects legal. With respect to escrow deposits and Escrow Payments
(other than with respect to each Mortgage Loan which is indicated by the Seller
to be a Second Lien Mortgage Loan and for which the mortgagee under the First
Lien is collecting Escrow Payments (as reflected on the Mortgage Loan Tape), all
such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of, the Seller and
there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary
arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. All Escrow Payments have
been collected in full compliance with state and federal law. An escrow of funds
is not prohibited by applicable law and has been established in an amount
sufficient to pay for every item that remains unpaid and has been assessed but
is not yet due and payable. No escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other
charges or payments due the Seller have been capitalized under the Mortgage or
the Mortgage Note. All Mortgage Interest
Schedule 1-9
64
Rate adjustments have been made in strict compliance with state and federal law
and the terms of the related Mortgage Note. Any interest required to be paid
pursuant to state, federal and local law has been properly paid and credited.
(gg) Other Insurance Policies. No action, inaction or event has
occurred and no state of facts exists or has existed that has resulted or will
result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any
applicable special hazard insurance policy, PMI 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 by any officer, director, or employee
of the Seller or any designee of the Seller or any corporation in which the
Seller or any officer, director, or employee had a financial interest at the
time of placement of such insurance.
(hh) Soldiers' and Sailors' Civil Relief Act. 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.
(ii) Appraisal. The Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related
Mortgaged Property 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, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval
of the Mortgage Loan.
(jj) Disclosure Materials. 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
the Seller maintain such statement in the Mortgage File.
(kk) Construction or Rehabilitation of Mortgaged Property. No Mortgage
Loan was made in connection with the construction or rehabilitation of a
Mortgaged Property or facilitating the trade-in or exchange of a Mortgaged
Property.
(ll) No Defense to Insurance Coverage. No action has been taken or
failed to be taken, no event has occurred and no state of facts exists or has
existed on or prior to the Purchase Date (whether or not known to the Seller on
or prior to such date) which has resulted or will result in an exclusion from,
denial of, or defense to coverage under any private mortgage insurance
(including, without limitation, any exclusions, denials or defenses which would
limit or reduce the availability of the timely payment of the full amount of the
loss otherwise due thereunder to the insured) whether arising out of actions,
representations, errors, omissions, negligence, or fraud of the Seller, the
related Mortgagor or any party involved in the application for such coverage,
including the appraisal, plans and specifications and other exhibits or

such insurer's financial inability to pay.
Schedule 1-10
65
(mm) Capitalization of Interest. The Mortgage Note does not by its
terms provide for the capitalization or forbearance of interest.
(nn) No Equity Participation. No document relating to the Mortgage Loan
provides for any contingent or additional interest in the form of participation
in the cash flow of the Mortgaged Property or a sharing in the appreciation of
the value of the Mortgaged Property. The indebtedness evidenced by the Mortgage
Note is not convertible to an ownership interest in the Mortgaged Property or
the Mortgagor and the Seller has not financed and does not own directly or
indirectly, any equity of any form in the Mortgaged Property or the Mortgagor.
(oo) Withdrawn Mortgage Loans. If the Mortgage Loan has been released
to the Seller pursuant to a Request for Release as permitted under Section 5 of
the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, then the promissory note relating to the
Mortgage Loan was returned to the Trustee within 14 days (or if such fourteenth
day was not a Business Day, the next succeeding Business Day).
(pp) No Exception. Neither the Trustee nor the Bailee has noted any
material exceptions on an Exception Report (as defined in the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement or the Bailee Agreement) with respect to the Mortgage Loan
which would materially adversely affect the Mortgage Loan or the Buyer's
ownership or security interest, granted by the Seller, in the Mortgage Loan.
(qq) Qualified Originator. The Mortgage Loan has been originated by,
and, if applicable, purchased by the Seller from, a Qualified Originator.
(rr) Mortgage Submitted for Recordation. The Mortgage either has been
or will promptly be submitted for recordation in the appropriate governmental
recording office of the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located.
(ss) Securitization. Each Mortgage Loan conforms to the Seller's
Underwriting Guidelines and otherwise conforms to the current standards of
institutional securitization applicable to loans similar in nature to the
Mortgage Loans. All Mortgage Loans, individually and in the aggregate,
substantially comply with each related representation or warranty customarily
required under the current standards of investment grade institutional
securitization applicable to mortgage loans similar in nature to the Mortgage
Loans.
(tt) Delinquent Loan Sublimit The inclusion of any Mortgage Loan
included in the Borrowing Base shall not cause the aggregate Collateral Value of
Eligible Mortgage Loans (i) which are 59-Day Delinquent Mortgage Loans to exceed
3% of the aggregate principal amount outstanding under the Loans, or (ii) which
are 89-Day Delinquent Mortgage Loans to exceed 1% of the aggregate Purchase
Price of all Transactions outstanding under the Repurchase Documents.
Schedule 1-11
66
Part II. Pledged Certificates
As to each Mortgage Loan which is related to a Pledged Certificate, and
as to the related Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the following eligibility
criteria shall be met as of the applicable Purchase Date and as of each date
Collateral Value is determined:
(a) Validity of Pooling and Servicing Agreement. The Pooling and
Servicing Agreement and any other agreement executed and
delivered by the Trustee in connection with the Pledged
Certificates are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and
binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in
accordance with its terms. The Trustee, Sponsor and Master
Servicer (as the last two such terms are defined in the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement) had legal capacity to execute
and deliver the Pooling and Servicing Agreement and any such
other related agreement to which such Trustee, Sponsor or
Master Servicer are parties have been duly and properly
executed by such Trustee, Sponsor or Master Servicer, as
applicable. The Pooling and Servicing Agreement is in full
force and effect, and the enforceability of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement has not been contested by Trustee.
(b) Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement have not been impaired, altered or
modified in any respect.
(c) No Defenses. The Pledged Certificates are not subject to any
right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense nor will
the operation of any of the terms of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the
Pooling Servicing Agreement unenforceable in whole or in part
and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or
defense has been asserted with respect thereto.
(d) No Waiver. The Seller have not waived the performance by the
Trustee or Master Servicer of any action, if the Trustee's
failure to perform such action would cause any Mortgage Loan
or Pledged Certificate to be in default, nor has the Seller
waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by
the Trustee or Master Servicer.
(e) No Defaults. There is no material default, breach, violation
or event of acceleration existing under the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement and no event has occurred which, with the
passage of time or giving of notice or both and the expiration
of any grace or cure period, would constitute a material
default, breach, violation or event of acceleration under the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement, and neither the Seller nor
its predecessors in interest have waived any such default,
breach, violation or event of acceleration.
Schedule 1-12
67
(f) Delivery of Pooling and Servicing Agreement. A copy of the
Pooling and Servicing Agreement has been delivered to the
Buyer.
(g) Pooling and Servicing Agreement Assignable. The Pooling and
Servicing Agreement is assignable to the Buyer. The Pooling
and Servicing Agreement permits the holder of the Pledged
Certificate to sell, assign, pledge, transfer or rehypothecate
the Pledged Certificates issued pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement.
