Purchaser.
5
The Purchaser hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title and
interest to the property conveyed to it pursuant to this Section 2.1.
(g) The parties hereto intend that the transactions set forth herein constitute
a sale by the Sellers to the Purchaser of each of the Sellers' right, title and
interest in and to their respective Initial Mortgage Loans and other property as
and to the extent described above. In the event the transactions set forth
herein are deemed not to be a sale, each Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser a
security interest in all of such Seller's right, title and interest in, to and
under all accounts, chattel papers, general intangibles, contract rights,
payment intangibles, certificates of deposit, deposit accounts, instruments,
documents, letters of credit, money, advices of credit, investment property,
goods and other property consisting of, arising under or related to the Initial
Mortgage Loans and such other property, to secure all of such Seller's
obligations hereunder, and this Agreement shall and hereby does constitute a
security agreement under applicable law. Each Seller agrees to take or cause to
be taken such actions and to execute such documents, including the filing of any
continuation statements with respect to the UCC-1 financing statements filed
with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser on the Closing Date,
and any amendments thereto required to reflect a change in the name or corporate
structure of such Seller or the filing of any additional UCC-1 financing
statements due to the change in the principal office or jurisdiction of
incorporation of such Seller, as are necessary to perfect and protect the
Purchaser's and its assignees' interests in each Initial Mortgage Loan and the
proceeds thereof. The Servicer shall file any such continuation statements on a
timely basis.
(h) In connection with the assignment of any Mortgage Loan registered on the
MERS(R) System, GMACM further agrees that it will cause, at GMACM's own expense,
as soon as practicable after the Closing Date, the MERS(R) System to indicate
that such Mortgage Loan has been assigned by GMACM to the Indenture Trustee in
accordance with this Agreement or the Trust Agreement for the benefit of the
Noteholders by including (or deleting, in the case of Mortgage Loans which are
repurchased in accordance with this Agreement) in such computer files (a) the
specific code which identifies the Indenture Trustee as the assignee of such
Mortgage Loan and (b) the series specific code in the field "Pool Field" which
identifies the series of the Notes issued in connection with such Mortgage
Loans. GMACM agrees that it will not alter the codes referenced in this
paragraph with respect to any Mortgage Loan during the term of this Agreement
unless and until such Mortgage Loan is repurchased in accordance with the terms

Section 2.2 Sale of Subsequent Mortgage Loans.

satisfaction of which (other than the conditions specified in paragraphs (b)(i),
(b)(ii) and (b)(iii)) shall be evidenced by an Officer's Certificate of GMACM
dated the date of the related Subsequent Transfer Date), in consideration of the
Issuer's payment of the purchase price provided for in Section 2.3 on one or
more Subsequent Transfer Dates using amounts on deposit in the Custodial
Account, the Pre-Funding Account, the Funding Account or the Reserve Sub-Account
(in each case to the extent permitted by the Servicing Agreement), each Seller
may, on the related Subsequent Transfer Date, sell, transfer, assign, set over
and convey without recourse to the Issuer but subject to the other terms and
provisions of this Agreement all of the right, title and interest of such Seller
in and to (i) Subsequent Mortgage Loans identified on the related Mortgage Loan
Schedule attached to the related Subsequent Transfer Agreement delivered by
6
GMACM on such Subsequent Transfer Date (including the Subsequent Cut-Off Date
Principal Balance then existing and all Additional Balances and Excluded Amounts
thereafter arising thereunder to and including the date immediately preceding
the commencement of the Rapid Amortization Period); provided that Excluded
Amounts shall not be conveyed to the Issuer and shall be retained by GMACM, (ii)
all money due or to become due on such Subsequent Mortgage Loan and all
collections received on or after the related Subsequent Cut-Off Date and (iii)
all items with respect to such Subsequent Mortgage Loans to be delivered
pursuant to Section 2.1 above and the other items in the related Mortgage Files;
provided, however, that the Seller of a Subsequent Mortgage Loan reserves and
retains all right, title and interest in and to principal received and interest
accruing on such Subsequent Mortgage Loan prior to the related Subsequent
Cut-Off Date. Any transfer to the Issuer by a Seller of Subsequent Mortgage
Loans shall be absolute, and is intended by the Issuer and such Seller to
constitute and to be treated as a sale of such Subsequent Mortgage Loans by such
Seller to the Issuer. In the event that any such transaction is deemed not to be
a sale, GMACM and WG Trust 2003, as the case may be, hereby grant to the Issuer
as of each Subsequent Transfer Date a security interest in all of such Seller's
right, title and interest in, to and under all accounts, chattel papers, general
intangibles, payment intangibles, contract rights, certificates of deposit,
deposit accounts, instruments, documents, letters of credit, money, advices of
credit, investment property, goods and other property consisting of, arising
under or related to the related Subsequent Mortgage Loans and such other
property, to secure all of such Seller's obligations hereunder, and this
Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under applicable law. Each
Seller agrees to take or cause to be taken such actions and to execute such
documents, including the filing of all necessary UCC-1 financing statements
filed in the State of Delaware and the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania (which shall
be submitted for filing as of the related Subsequent Transfer Date), any
continuation statements with respect thereto and any amendments thereto required
to reflect a change in the name or corporate structure of such Seller or the
filing of any additional UCC-1 financing statements due to the change in the
principal office or jurisdiction of incorporation of such Seller, as are
necessary to perfect and protect the interests of the Issuer and its assignees
in each Subsequent Mortgage Loan and the proceeds thereof. The Servicer shall
file any such continuation statements on a timely basis.
The Issuer on each Subsequent Transfer Date shall acknowledge its
acceptance of all right, title and interest to the related Subsequent Mortgage
Loans and other property, existing on the Subsequent Transfer Date and
thereafter created, conveyed to it pursuant to this Section 2.2.
The Issuer shall be entitled to all scheduled principal payments due on
and after each Subsequent Cut-Off Date, all other payments of principal due and
collected on and after each Subsequent Cut-Off Date, and all payments of
interest on any related Subsequent Mortgage Loans, minus that portion of any
such interest payment that is allocable to the period prior to the related
Subsequent Cut-Off Date and any payment relating to any Excluded Amounts as
provided in Section 2.5.
(b) Any Seller may transfer to the Issuer Subsequent Mortgage Loans and the

States in August and September of 2004, such Seller or GMACM, as the case may
be, shall, notwithstanding such Seller's or GMACM's lack of knowledge with
respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, within 90 days
after the earlier of its discovery or receipt of notice thereof, either (i) cure
such breach in all material respects or (ii)(A) repurchase such Mortgage Loan
from the Issuer at the Repurchase Price, or (B) 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.
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(R) 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(R) 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. No
substitution will be made in any calendar month after the Determination Date for
such month. Minimum Monthly Payments due with respect to Eligible Substitute
Loans in the month of substitution shall not be part of the Trust Estate and
will be retained by the Servicer and remitted by the Servicer to such Seller on
the next succeeding Payment Date, provided that a payment at least equal to the
applicable Minimum Monthly Payment for such month in respect of the Deleted Loan
has been received by the Issuer. For the month of substitution, distributions to
20
the Note Payment Account pursuant to the Servicing Agreement will include the
Minimum Monthly Payment due on a Deleted Loan for such month and thereafter such
Seller shall be entitled to retain all amounts received in respect of such
Deleted Loan. The Servicer shall amend or cause to be amended the Mortgage Loan
Schedule to reflect the removal of such Deleted Loan and the substitution of the
Eligible Substitute Loan or Loans and the Servicer shall deliver the amended
Mortgage Loan Schedule to the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee and the
Enhancer. Upon such substitution, the Eligible Substitute Loan or Loans shall be
subject to the terms of this Agreement and the Servicing Agreement in all
respects, GMACM shall be deemed to have made the representations and warranties
with respect to the Eligible Substitute Loan contained herein set forth in
Section 3.1(b) (other than clauses (viii) (xiii), (xxiv), (xxv)(B), (xxvi) and
(xxvii) thereof and other than clauses (iii) and (ix) thereof in the case of
Eligible Substitute Loans substituted by WG Trust 2003); if the Seller is WG
Trust 2003, WG Trust 2003 shall be deemed to have made the representations and
warranties set forth in Section 3.1(d)(II); in each case, as of the date of
substitution, and the related Seller shall be deemed to have made a
representation and warranty that each Mortgage Loan so substituted is an
Eligible Substitute Loan as of the date of substitution. 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.
21
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.
ARTICLE IV
SELLERS' COVENANTS
Section 4.1 Covenants of the Sellers. Each Seller hereby covenants that, except
for the transfer hereunder and as of any Subsequent Transfer Date, it will not
sell, pledge, assign or transfer to any other Person, or grant, create, incur or
assume any Lien on any Mortgage Loan, or any interest therein, except with
respect to any Excluded Amount. Each Seller shall notify the Issuer (in the case
of the Initial Mortgage Loans, as assignee of the Purchaser), of the existence
of any Lien (other than as provided above) on any Mortgage Loan immediately upon
discovery thereof; and each Seller shall defend the right, title and interest of
the Issuer (in the case of the Initial Mortgage Loans, as assignee of the
Purchaser) in, to and under the Mortgage Loans against all claims of third
parties claiming through or under such Seller; provided, however, that nothing
in this Section 4.1 shall be deemed to apply to any Liens for municipal or other
local taxes and other governmental charges if such taxes or governmental charges
shall not at the time be due and payable or if any Seller shall currently be
contesting the validity thereof in good faith by appropriate Proceedings.
ARTICLE V

such liability is expressly waived and released as a condition of, and as
consideration for, the execution of this Agreement and any Subsequent Transfer
Agreement. Except as and to the extent expressly provided in the Servicing
Agreement, GMACM and WG Trust 2003 shall not be under any liability to the
Issuer, the Owner Trustee, the Indenture Trustee or the Securityholders. GMACM
or WG Trust 2003 and any director, officer, employee or agent of GMACM or WG

Section 8.4 Severability of Provisions. If any one or more of the covenants,
agreements, provisions or terms of this Agreement shall be held invalid for any
reason whatsoever, then such covenants, agreements, provisions or terms shall be
deemed severable from the remaining covenants, agreements, provisions or terms

the other provisions of this Agreement.
Section 8.5 Relationship of Parties. Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or

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
24
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
2004-HE4 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.
25
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.
26
