Upon discovery by any Seller or GMACM or upon notice from the Purchaser, the Enhancer, the Issuer, GMACM, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, of a breach of a Seller’s or GMACM’s representations or warranties in paragraphs (b) or (d)(II) above, with respect to any Mortgage Loan, or upon the occurrence of a Repurchase Event, that materially and adversely affects the interests of the Securityholders, the Enhancer or the Purchaser in such Mortgage Loan (notice of which shall be given to the Purchaser by the respective Seller or GMACM, if it discovers the same), notwithstanding such Seller’s or GMACM’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such Seller or GMACM, as the case may be, shall, within 90 days after the earlier of its discovery or receipt of notice thereof, either cure such breach or Repurchase Event in all material respects or either (i) repurchase such Mortgage Loan from the Issuer at the Repurchase Price, or (ii) substitute one or more Eligible Substitute Loans for such Mortgage Loan, in each case in the manner and subject to the conditions set forth below. The Repurchase Price for any such Mortgage Loan repurchased by such Seller or GMACM shall be deposited or caused to be deposited by the Servicer into the Custodial Account. Any purchase of a Mortgage Loan due to a Repurchase Event shall be the obligation of GMACM.
In furtherance of the foregoing, if GMACM or the Seller that repurchases or substitutes a Mortgage Loan is not a member of MERS and the Mortgage is registered on the MERS® System, GMACM, at its own expense and without any right of reimbursement, shall cause MERS to execute and deliver an assignment of the Mortgage in recordable form to transfer the Mortgage from MERS to GMACM or the Seller and shall cause such Mortgage to be removed from registration on the MERS® System in accordance with MERS’ rules and regulations.
In the event that any Seller elects to substitute an Eligible Substitute Loan or Loans for a Deleted Loan pursuant to this Section 3.1, such Seller shall deliver to the Custodian on behalf of the Issuer, with respect to such Eligible Substitute Loan or Loans, the original Loan Agreement, with the Loan Agreement endorsed as required under the definition of “Mortgage File” and shall deliver the other documents required to be part of the Mortgage File to the Servicer.

In addition, GMACM shall be obligated to repurchase or substitute for any Eligible Substitute Loan as to which a Repurchase Event has occurred as provided herein. In connection with the substitution of one or more Eligible Substitute Loans for one or more Deleted Loans, the Servicer shall determine the amount (such amount, a “Substitution Adjustment Amount”), if any, by which the aggregate principal balance of all such Eligible Substitute Loans as of the date of substitution is less than the aggregate principal balance of all such Deleted Loans (after application of the principal portion of the Minimum Monthly Payments due in the month of substitution that are to be distributed to the Note Payment Account in the month of substitution). Such Seller shall deposit the amount of such shortfall into the Custodial Account on the date of substitution, without any reimbursement therefor.
Upon receipt by the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer and the Custodian of written notification, signed by a Servicing Officer, of the deposit of such Repurchase Price or of such substitution of an Eligible Substitute Loan (together with the complete related Mortgage File) and deposit of any applicable Substitution Adjustment Amount as provided above, the Custodian, on behalf of the Indenture Trustee, shall (i) release to such Seller or GMACM, as the case may be, the related Loan Agreement for the Mortgage Loan being repurchased or substituted for, (ii) cause the Servicer to release to such Seller any remaining documents in the related Mortgage File which are held by the Servicer, and (iii) the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Issuer shall execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or assignment prepared by the Servicer, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in such Seller or GMACM, as the case may be, or its respective designee such Mortgage Loan released pursuant hereto and thereafter such Mortgage Loan shall not be an asset of the Issuer.
It is understood and agreed that the obligation of each Seller and GMACM to cure any breach, or to repurchase or substitute for any Mortgage Loan as to which such a breach has occurred and is continuing, shall constitute the sole remedy respecting such breach available to the Purchaser, the Issuer, the Certificateholders (or the Owner Trustee on behalf of the Certificateholders) and the Noteholders (or the Indenture Trustee on behalf of the Noteholders) against such Seller and GMACM.
It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in this Section 3.1 shall survive delivery of the respective Mortgage Files to the Issuer or the Custodian.

Section 8.5 Relationship of Parties. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a partnership or joint venture among the parties hereto, and the services of the GMACM shall be rendered as an independent contractor and not as agent for the Purchaser.

Section 8.7 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 appropriate to effectuate the purposes of this Agreement.
Section 8.8 Intention of the Parties. It is the intention of the parties hereto that the Purchaser will be purchasing on the Closing Date, and the Sellers will be selling on the Closing Date, the Initial Mortgage Loans, rather than the Purchaser providing a loan to the Sellers secured by the Initial Mortgage Loans on the Closing Date; and that the Issuer will be purchasing on each Subsequent Transfer Date, and the Sellers will be selling on each Subsequent Transfer Date, the related Subsequent Mortgage Loans, rather than the Issuer providing a loan to the Sellers secured by the related Subsequent Mortgage Loans on each Subsequent Transfer Date. Accordingly, the parties hereto each intend to treat this transaction for federal income tax purposes as (i) a sale by the Sellers, and a purchase by the Purchaser, of the Initial Mortgage Loans on the Closing Date and (ii) a sale by the Sellers, and a purchase by the Issuer, of the related Subsequent Mortgage Loans on each Subsequent Transfer Date. The Purchaser and the Issuer shall each have the right to review the Mortgage Loans and the Related Documents to determine the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans which will affect the federal income tax consequences of owning the Mortgage Loans, and each Seller shall cooperate with all reasonable requests made by the Purchaser or the Issuer in the course of such review.
Section 8.9 Successors and Assigns; Assignment of this Agreement.(a) This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be enforceable by the parties hereto and their respective permitted successors and assigns. The obligations of each Seller under this Agreement cannot be assigned or delegated to a third party without the consent of the Enhancer and the Purchaser (and the Issuer with respect to the transfer of any Subsequent Mortgage Loans), which consent shall be at the Purchaser’s sole discretion (and the Issuer’s sole discretion with respect to the transfer of any Subsequent Mortgage Loans); provided, that each Seller may assign its obligations hereunder to any Affiliate of such Seller, to any Person succeeding to the business of such Seller, to any Person into which such Seller is merged and to any Person resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which such Seller is a party. The parties hereto acknowledge that (i) the Purchaser is acquiring the Initial Mortgage Loans for the purpose of contributing them to the GMACM Home Equity Loan Trust 2005-HE1 and (ii) the Issuer is acquiring the Subsequent Mortgage Loans for the purpose of pledging the Subsequent Mortgage Loans to the Indenture Trustee for the benefit of the Noteholders and the Enhancer.
(b) As an inducement to the Purchaser and the Issuer to purchase the Initial Mortgage Loans and to the Issuer to purchase any Subsequent Mortgage Loans, each Seller acknowledges and consents to (i) the assignment by the Purchaser to the Issuer of all of the Purchaser’s rights against any Seller pursuant to this Agreement insofar as such rights relate to the Initial Mortgage Loans transferred to the Issuer and to the enforcement or exercise of any right or remedy against any of the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement by the Issuer, (ii) the enforcement or exercise of any right or remedy against any of the Sellers pursuant to this Agreement by or on behalf of the Issuer and (iii) the Issuer’s pledge of its interest in this Agreement to the Indenture Trustee and the enforcement by the Indenture Trustee of any such right or remedy against any Seller following an Event of Default under the Indenture. Such enforcement of a right or remedy by the Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Enhancer or the Indenture Trustee, as applicable, shall have the same force and effect as if the right or remedy had been enforced or exercised by the Purchaser or the Issuer directly.
Section 8.10 Survival. The representations and warranties made herein by each Seller and the provisions of Article VI hereof shall survive the purchase of the Initial Mortgage Loans hereunder and any transfer of Subsequent Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement and the related Subsequent Transfer Agreement.
Section 8.11 Third Party Beneficiary. The Enhancer shall be a third party beneficiary hereof and shall be entitled to enforce the provisions of this Agreement as if a party hereto.
IN WITNESS WHEREOF, the parties hereto 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.
