Section 2.01. Agreement to Purchase; Conveyance of Mortgage Loans; Purchase Price; Possession of Mortgage Files.
(a) Agreement to Purchase; Conveyance of Mortgage Loans; Escrow Balances. In exchange for the payment of the Purchase Price on the Closing Date, and subject to the provisions of Section 2.03, the Seller hereby sells, without recourse, but subject to the terms and conditions of (and except as expressly set forth in) this Agreement, on a servicing released basis, the Mortgage Loans identified on the Mortgage Loan Schedule.
(b) Purchase Price. The “Purchase Price” for the Mortgage Loans shall be (i) the product of (A) the Purchase Price Percentage and (B) the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans listed on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, plus (ii) Accrued Interest for any Mortgage Loan less than sixty (60) days delinquent, plus (iii) any unreimbursed and recoverable Servicing Advances made prior to the Cut-off Date for any Mortgage Loan less than sixty (60) days delinquent; provided, however, that Purchaser shall be entitled to a credit in the aggregate amount of the Disclosed Liens and Encumbrances Credit. The foregoing payments shall be made to the account designated by the Seller on Exhibit D by wire transfer in immediately available funds on the Closing Date. The Purchaser shall be entitled to (1) all principal collected after the Cut-off Date, (2) all payments of interest on the Mortgage Loans collected after the Cut-off Date and (3) all other payments and recoveries on the Mortgage Loans due or collected after the Cut-off Date. The Stated Principal Balance of each Mortgage Loan as of the Cut-off Date is determined after application of payments of principal due and collected on or before the Cut-off Date, together with any unscheduled principal prepayments collected on or prior to the Cut-off Date. If any amount paid pursuant to this Agreement is found to have been calculated or paid in error or is otherwise erroneous, the party discovering such error(s) shall promptly give notice to the other party and the parties shall cooperate in good faith to reconcile such error(s). Upon the reconciliation of any such error(s) by the parties, the party benefitting from the error shall promptly pay to the other party an amount sufficient to correct the error. Notwithstanding the foregoing, the parties’ obligations under this paragraph shall be limited in duration to the six-month period immediately following the Closing Date.
(c) Delivery of Mortgage Loan Documents; Collateral Exceptions and Obligation to Cure or Repurchase. The Seller has, pursuant to the Bailment Letter, and without limitation of the terms and provisions of this Section 2.01(c), delivered to the Bailee the Mortgage Loan Documents with respect to each Mortgage Loan. Attached hereto as Schedule 3-A is an exception report identifying certain missing or deficient documents (the “Collateral Exceptions”) from the Mortgage File (the “Collateral Exception Report”). Obligor, on behalf of the Seller, shall use commercially reasonable efforts to provide any such missing document or cure such deficiency identified on the Collateral Exception Report within one hundred twenty (120) days from the Closing Date or any earlier date set forth on the Collateral Exception Report in respect of any related Collateral Exception (the “Collateral Cure Period”) provided, however, that such cure period shall be extended, on a day-by-day basis for any Force Majeure Event. During the Collateral Cure Period, upon the written request of Seller to Program Manager and at the Seller’s sole cost and expense, the Purchaser shall cause the Program Manager to cooperate with the Seller by providing weekly updates on the items remaining outstanding on the Collateral Exception Report. In the event that the Obligor does not cure any such Collateral Exception with respect to a Mortgage Loan during the Collateral Cure Period, the Obligor shall, upon its receipt of a written request from the Purchaser, repurchase, at the Repurchase Price, such Mortgage Loan within ten (10) Business Days following the date of such request, which repurchase shall occur in the manner set forth in Section 3.03(b). The Collateral Cure Period may be extended upon written request of Seller with the prior written consent of Purchaser in its sole discretion. The provisions of this Section 2.01(c) shall expressly survive the
8
Closing Date. The obligations of the Obligor set forth in this Section 2.01(c) shall constitute the sole remedies available to the Purchaser with respect to a Collateral Exception identified on the Collateral Exception Report.
(d) Closing Date Documents. On or before the Closing Date, the Purchaser (except as provided below), the Obligor and the Seller shall furnish to each other fully executed counterparts of each of:
(A) this Agreement;
(B) the Bailment Letter;
(C) the Seller shall have delivered to the Purchaser an executed Xxxx of Sale for the Mortgage Loans being sold by it in the form attached hereto as Exhibit B;

(E) the Seller shall have delivered to the Purchaser an unexecuted version of the final Mortgage Loan Schedule, in form and substance satisfactory to the Program Manager.
(e) Reimbursement of Non-Recoverable Servicing Advances. In the event that Purchaser determines, at any time prior to the date that is six (6) months following the Closing Date, that any Servicing Advances made prior to the Cut-off Date and comprising a component of the Purchase Price are non-recoverable from the applicable Mortgagor as the result of insufficient documentation evidencing such Servicing Advance, then (i) the Purchaser may send to the Obligor a written notification with respect to such non-recoverable Servicing Advance (which shall include a description of the basis upon which the Servicing Advance is non-recoverable as the result of insufficient documentation) and (ii) within ten (10) Business Days following such written notification, Obligor shall pay to Purchaser (or its designee), via wire transfer of immediately available funds, an amount equal to the affected Servicing Advance (or portion thereof that is non-recoverable as the result of insufficient documentation). The provisions of this Section 2.01(e) shall expressly survive the Closing Date.
(f) Disclosed Liens and Encumbrances. With respect to the Disclosed Liens and Encumbrances set forth on Schedule 2-B attached hereto, Obligor, on behalf of the Seller, shall have a period of forty-five (45) days, commencing upon the Closing Date, to provide evidence satisfactory to the Purchaser that such Disclosed Liens and Encumbrances have been discharged or do not otherwise encumber the related Mortgaged Property. If, with respect to any Disclosed Liens and Encumbrances, Obligor, on behalf of the Seller, timely provides such evidence to the Purchaser, then the Purchaser shall pay (or cause to be paid) to the Seller the related lien amount set forth on Schedule 2-B within ten (10) Business Days following Obligor’s written request. If Obligor, on behalf of the Seller, fails to timely provide any such evidence with respect to a Mortgage Loan set forth on Schedule 2-B to the Purchaser, then Purchaser shall have no further obligations with respect to the Disclosed Liens and Encumbrances set forth on Schedule 2-B related to such Mortgage Loan. The provisions of this Section 2.01(f) shall expressly survive the Closing Date.
(g) Data Exceptions. Attached hereto as Schedule 3-B is a report identifying certain data exceptions (the “Data Exceptions”). Without limitation of (i) the Obligor’s representations and warranties in Section 3.02(a) or (ii) any of Purchaser’s rights or remedies pursuant to Section 3.03, Obligor, on behalf of the Seller, shall, from and after the Closing Date, reasonably cooperate with the Purchaser and its custodian to resolve the Data Exceptions.
Section 2.02. Possession and Ownership of Mortgage Files. Upon the payment of the Purchase Price of the Mortgage Loans, the ownership of each related Mortgage Note, each related Mortgage and each related Mortgage File shall vest immediately in the Purchaser, and the ownership of all records and documents with respect to the Mortgage Loans in the possession of the Seller or its designee(s) (including the Bailee) shall vest immediately in the Purchaser. Upon payment of the Purchase Price by the Purchaser to the Seller for the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms hereof, the Seller shall be deemed to have released to the Purchaser all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans sold by it, including without limitation, the related Servicing Rights and the contents of each Mortgage File related to such Mortgage Loans; provided, the Seller may retain copies of any Mortgage File related to such Mortgage Loans subject to the provisions of Section 6.10.
Section 2.03. Closing Conditions. The closing for the purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on the Closing Date. The closing, including payment of the Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loans as set forth in Section 2.01(b) of this Agreement, shall be subject to the satisfaction of each of the following conditions:

(b) all of the representations and warranties of the Seller under Article III of this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date (or in each case such other date specified therein), and no default shall have occurred hereunder which, with notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a default under this Agreement; and
(c) all of the representations and warranties of the Purchaser under Article III of this Agreement shall be true and correct in all material respects as of the Closing Date (or in each case such other date specified therein), and no default shall have occurred hereunder which, with notice or the passage of time or both, would constitute a default under this Agreement.
Upon satisfaction of the foregoing conditions and receipt of the Purchase Price from the Purchaser for the Mortgage Loans as set forth in Section 2.01(b) of this Agreement, the Seller shall thereupon (i) immediately be deemed to have released all of its right, title and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans sold by it hereunder, including without limitation the contents of each Mortgage File in accordance with the Bailee Letter and (ii) as an obligation that shall expressly survive the Closing, promptly deliver to the Successor Servicer twenty-five (25) executed originals of the Limited Power of Attorney. Upon the written request of Purchaser, the Program Manager or the Successor Servicer (and as a covenant expressly surviving the Closing), the Seller shall deliver to the Successor Servicer such additional, original Limited Powers of Attorney (not to exceed twenty-five (25) originals in the aggregate) as shall from time to time be reasonably necessary for the taking of the actions described therein.
Section 2.04. Execution of Assignments and Endorsements. The Obligor will cooperate with Purchaser and shall, at Obligor’s expense, cause to be prepared any intervening assignment documents that Purchaser may reasonably request that are in form acceptable for filing or recording in accordance with any applicable law and/or recorder’s office requirements. Preparation of each Assignment of Mortgage, and the delivery of each Assignment of Mortgage to the Successor Servicer, shall be the Obligor’s responsibility and sole cost and expense. All recording fees and expenses related to the recordation of the Assignments of Mortgage (other than intervening assignment documents, the cost and expense of which shall be the sole responsibility of Seller) shall be the responsibility of Purchaser. With respect to any Mortgage Loan that is the subject of recording, including but not limited to any public filing (“Recorded Mortgage Loans”), no later than one hundred twenty (120) days after the Closing Date, the Purchaser, at its expense, shall cause the Successor Servicer to use commercially reasonable efforts to file and submit for recording, as applicable, the Assignment of Mortgage for the Recorded Mortgage Loans; provided, however, that such one hundred twenty (120) day period shall be extended, with respect to any Assignment of Mortgage, on a day-by-day basis for (i) any Force Majeure Event and (ii) any delay in the Obligor’s delivery to the Successor Servicer of any intervening assignment document with respect to the related Mortgage Loan. As used herein, “Force Majeure Event” shall mean any act or occurrence beyond the reasonable control of Purchaser or Successor Servicer, including, but not limited to, any act or provision of any present or future law, order or regulation or governmental authority (including any “shelter in place” or similar order), any act of God or war or terrorism, pandemic, labor dispute, or the closure of any recording or filing office.

The Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to (i) submit the first quarterly report to Xxxxxx Mae using data calculated as of the end of the first calendar quarter following the Transfer Date, which is June 30, 2020, on the applicable reporting due date specified by Xxxxxx Xxx and (ii) continue to submit reports using data calculated as required by Xxxxxx Mae on the applicable reporting due date specified by Xxxxxx Xxx for all subsequent reporting periods. The Purchaser acknowledges and agrees that beginning on and after the Transfer Date (1) the Purchaser shall be solely responsible for submission (or causing the submission) of all such reports and (2) the Seller and its affiliates shall have no obligation or liability with respect to such reports.
(b) Litigation. The Seller (or the Program Administrator on behalf of the Seller, as applicable) and Xxxxxx Mae shall manage litigation, and the Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to manage litigation, with respect to the Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loans that exists as of, or arises subsequent to, the Closing Date in accordance with the protocol set forth on Exhibit G or Exhibit I, as applicable, and the terms of this Section 2.07. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement, should the Original Seller Block Persons or the Original Seller’s Servicer become, or continue to be, a party to any claim, action, proceeding, investigation, or inquiry relating to the Xxxxxx Mae Mortgage Loans following the Closing Date: (a) the Seller (or the Program Administrator on behalf of the Seller, as applicable), the Original Seller Block Person or the Original Seller’s Servicer may notify the opposing party in the action that the Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loan has been sold to the Purchaser and the servicing has been transferred to the Successor Servicer; and (b) the Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to provide the Original Seller Block Person any and all applicable documentation or data reasonably available to the Purchaser or the Successor Servicer regarding such Xxxxxx Mae Mortgage Loans as may be requested by the Original Seller Block Person or the Original Seller’s Servicer to defend such claim, action or proceeding.
(c) Contested Litigation. For Contested Litigation, Xxxxxx Xxx reserves the right, in its sole discretion, to retain a law firm of its choice and to manage the defense for some or all of the named Original Seller Block Person or the Original Seller’s Servicer defendants. For all Contested Litigation, the Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to designate a liaison or liaisons who will work with the Seller (or the Program Administrator on behalf of the Seller, as applicable), Xxxxxx Mae and each of their counsel to provide loan-level information and payoff and reinstatement quotes upon request during the course of the Contested Litigation, and who will implement the terms of settlements agreed to by Xxxxxx Xxx, the Seller (or the Program Administrator on behalf of the Seller, as applicable) and the Successor Servicer, including but not limited to applying payment adjustments; requesting credit reporting corrections; creating and implementing loan modifications permissible under the Purchaser’s servicing documents; delaying any foreclosure, eviction, or marketing activity; and rescinding foreclosure sales. Upon the Purchaser becoming aware of Contested Litigation through service of process or notification by any Original Seller Block Person, the Original Seller’s Servicer or the Seller, the Purchaser shall thereafter cause the Successor Servicer to comply with the requirements of Exhibit G attached hereto (“Standard Servicing Instructions for Contested Litigation Loans”) with respect to the Xxxxxx Mae Mortgage Loans affected by such Contested Litigation. For all such Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loans in Contested Litigation arising following the Closing Date, each of the Seller (or the Program Administrator on behalf of the Seller, as applicable) and the Purchaser recognize that they (or in the case of Purchaser, the Successor Servicer) are jointly working together with Xxxxxx Mae and that they are both necessary parties to share information related to such litigation and that, as such, information and the fruits thereof shared between the two shall not be considered a waiver of any attorney-client privilege, work product doctrine or any other applicable principle of protecting information from disclosure. This provision should be interpreted to create a joint defense agreement and/or a common interest agreement between the parties hereto which may be further formalized at the request of any party hereto with an addendum to that effect between them at a later date.
For Contested Litigation arising following the Closing Date, the Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to promptly notify (i) the Seller in accordance with the notice provisions set forth herein and (ii) Xxxxxx Xxx in the manner specified in subsection 13 under the heading “Standard Servicing Instructions for Contested Litigation Loans” on Exhibit G attached hereto and neither the Successor Servicer nor the Purchaser may, absent confirmation from Xxxxxx Mae that such Contested Litigation will be managed by it, allow any default with regard to the Contested Litigation to occur pending a response. Moreover, the Purchaser covenants not to contact any form of media (including but not limited to posting on any social media or public disclosure source) or to contact any state Attorney General, the Office of the Comptroller of Currency, the Federal Reserve Board, the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau or any other state or federal regulatory authorities on any Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loan involving allegations against any Original Seller Block Person or the Original Seller’s Servicer or an origination or servicing activity, omission or event that occurred prior to the Closing Date. The Purchaser further agrees that, unless obligated by law, it will not respond to any inquiry from the media or a governmental entity relating to any Xxxxxx Mae Mortgage Loan involving allegations against any Original Seller Block Person, or an origination or servicing activity, omission or event that occurred prior to the Closing Date, and shall promptly (and before responding) forward the inquiry to Xxxxxx Xxx, unless prohibited from doing so by the entity issuing such inquiry. This specific paragraph shall not prohibit the Purchaser from responding to inquiries and requests for information from its Regulators and the Purchaser shall not be required to notify Xxxxxx Mae of any such inquiry or request unless, provided such notification is not prohibited by such Regulator, such inquiry or request targets the Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loans, the Original Seller’s Servicer or any Original Seller Block Persons.
(d) Third Party Claims.
(1) The Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to notify Xxxxxx Mae and the Seller if a claim is made upon an Original Seller Block Person by a third party with respect to this Agreement or the Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loans (a “Third Party Claim”). Any such notice shall be provided in the manner specified in this Agreement.
(2) In the event of any such Third Party Claim made in respect of which Xxxxxx Mae may have contractual damage claims against or may be entitled to indemnification, Xxxxxx Xxx may control, assume the defense of, negotiate or settle any such claim and pay all expenses in connection therewith, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy any judgment or decree that may be entered in respect of such claim. The Purchaser hereby agrees to cooperate or to cause the Successor Servicer to cooperate fully with Xxxxxx Mae and the Seller in connection with the defense, negotiation or settlement of any such legal proceeding.
(3) The Purchaser shall not, and shall cause the Successor Servicer not to, settle a Third Party Claim without the consent of Xxxxxx Xxx, which consent shall not be unreasonably withheld, conditioned or delayed, unless the terms of any settlement or compromise provide for (i) no relief other than the payment of monetary damages for which Xxxxxx Mae has received a written commitment for repayment of such monetary damages from Purchaser, (ii) a full and unconditional release of Xxxxxx Xxx for all liability in respect of such claim or litigation, and (iii) confidentiality and non-disparagement terms substantially in the form of Exhibit H; and provided, further, that if a settlement is not consented to by Xxxxxx Mae, the Purchaser shall be liable in the event and to the extent that a subsequent settlement or other resolution causes Purchaser to incur a greater liability than that provided for in the proposed settlement that did not receive the consent required hereunder.
(4) In connection with any settlement, whether judicial or non-judicial, entered into by the Purchaser with a borrower of a Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loan that includes a release of the Purchaser or its successors or assigns for any claims pertaining to such Xxxxxx Mae Mortgage Loan, the Purchaser shall also obtain or cause the Successor Servicer to obtain a release of the Seller, its servicer and their respective affiliates, officers, directors, employees, agents and representatives, and their respective successors and assigns, for any such claims pertaining to such Xxxxxx Xxx Mortgage Loan.

(b) Follow-Up Report. In the event that any HUD Mortgage Loan has not been liquidated by the date of submission of the final Post-Sale Report, the Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to provide post-sale reporting to XxxxxXxx@xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx on the status of the HUD Mortgage Loans on the earlier of (A) five (5) Business Days prior to the next quarterly due date after which all of the HUD Mortgage Loans purchased have been liquidated and/or have received six (6) consecutive on-time payments; or (B) five (5) Business Days prior to the second (2nd) anniversary of the Post-Sale Reporting Period End Date (the “Follow-Up Report”).

(i) The Post-Sale Report and Follow-Up Report Requirements set forth in Exhibit J attached hereto (the “Post-Sale Reporting Requirements”) are applicable for all HUD Mortgage Loans purchased, regardless of whether they have been securitized or sold by the Purchaser.
(ii) The Post-Sale Reporting Requirements are an integral part of this Agreement. HUD may unilaterally amend, supplement or change the reporting date, content, format, or delivery method of the Post-Sale Reporting Requirements, but only in a manner that does not have a material adverse effect (including a material adverse economic or financial effect) on the rights and obligations of the Purchaser under this Agreement.
(iii) All Post-Sale Reports and the Follow-Up Report shall be submitted to XxxxxXxx@xxxxxxxxxxx.xxx for further submission by Roosevelt online through HUD’s Post-Sale Reporting (PSR) tool at xxx.xxxxxxx.xxx (or to such other addresses as HUD may later provide).

Report Documentation may be requested after submission of the first Post-Sale Report and for any time within two (2) years following the submission of the final Post-Sale Report or Follow-Up Report, if applicable. Upon receipt of HUD’s written request (to be promptly delivered to the Purchaser and the Successor Servicer via the Seller or the Program Administrator on the Seller’s behalf, as applicable), the Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to provide the Report Documentation to

The Purchaser shall cause the Successor Servicer to take commercially appropriate, reasonably necessary steps to ensure that each HUD Mortgage Loan set forth on Schedule 4 attached hereto becomes a Resolved Default Mortgage Loan by the Post Sale Reporting Period End Date. Neither the Purchaser nor the Successor Servicer shall be relieved of this obligation merely by sale or transfer of a HUD Mortgage Loan and, with respect to any sold HUD Mortgage Loan that, at the time of sale, is not a Resolved Default Mortgage Loan, “commercially appropriate, reasonably necessary steps” shall entail inclusion of any necessary restrictions in the subject sale agreement.
(f) Indemnification. To the extent Rushmore Loan Management Services LLC is not the servicer with respect to any Mortgage Loan, the Purchaser hereby indemnifies the Initial HUD Mortgage Loan Purchaser and its affiliates, employees, directors, officers and agents (each, an “Initial HUD Mortgage Loan Purchaser Indemnified Party”) with respect to any such Mortgage Loan from and against any and all claims, losses, liabilities or expenses, including reasonable compensation and expenses, disbursements and advances of its agents, counsel, accountants and experts, and expenses incurred in the enforcement of this obligation right (collectively, the “Initial HUD Mortgage Loan Purchaser Claims”) imposed on, incurred by or asserted against any Initial HUD Mortgage Loan Purchaser Indemnified Party in connection with or resulting from a material failure of the Purchaser to perform (or to cause the Successor Servicer to perform) its reporting duties and obligations under this Section 2.08 (subject to any limitations on survival periods set forth herein).

(c) Validity of Mortgage. Except with respect to the Disclosed Liens and Encumbrances specifically set forth on Schedule 2-A attached hereto, the Mortgage is a valid, existing and enforceable first lien on the Mortgaged Property, subject only to: (x) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable; (y) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of public record as of the date of recording and generally acceptable to prudent lending institutions and (z) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject and which do not materially interfere with the benefits intended to be provided by the Mortgage (collectively, “Permitted Encumbrances”).

(e) Good Title. The Seller is the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loan, and the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage (or Security Agreement with respect to a Co-op Loan), and has good title to the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan, including, if applicable, the Mortgage Note and Mortgage (or Security Agreement with respect to a Co-op Loan), is not assigned or pledged, and the Seller has good and marketable title thereto and has full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest;
(f) No Defenses. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, nor will the operation of any of the terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage, or the exercise of any right thereunder, render the Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury, and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been, to the best of such Seller’s knowledge, asserted with respect thereto;

(k) No Condemnation; No Casualty. To the Seller’s Knowledge, the Mortgaged Property is not subject to a condemnation proceeding, and there is no proceeding pending or, to Seller’s Knowledge, threatened in writing for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property;
(l) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed, and there is no requirement for future advances under the Mortgage Loan;

Section 3.03. Remedies for Breach of Representations and Warranties.
(a) Notice of Breach. Upon discovery by the Seller, the Obligor or the Purchaser of any breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.01 or 3.02 that adversely affects the value, enforceability or collectability of a Mortgage Loan in any material respect (a “Breach”), the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice in the form described in the immediately following paragraph of this Section 3.03(a) to the other parties, but in no event shall such notice be provided later than the expiration of the Survival Period. Within ninety (90) days of its discovery or receipt of notice of such Breach (the “Cure Period”), as applicable, the Obligor shall use its best efforts to cure such Breach, to the extent curable, in all material respects. If such Breach is not curable or, if curable, cannot be cured within such ninety (90) day period, the Obligor shall have the right to propose in writing a reimbursement to the Purchaser of an amount (the “Purchase Price Adjustment”) equal to the reduction in value of the affected Mortgage Loan based upon the Breach. The Obligor shall be deemed to have elected not to propose a Purchase Price Adjustment to the Purchaser if the Obligor fails to deliver to the Program Manager a proposed Purchase Price Adjustment (i) within five (5) Business Days following the expiration of the Cure Period, if the related Breach is curable, or (ii) within fifteen (15) Business Days following the earlier to occur of (a) the Seller’s or the Obligor’s discovery of the related Breach or (b) the Purchaser’s delivery of written notice to the Obligor with respect to the related Breach, if such Breach is not curable, in which event the Obligor shall repurchase the related Mortgage Loan in accordance with Section 3.03(b). To the extent that Obligor proposes a Purchase Price Adjustment to the Program Manager, the Obligor and the Purchaser (or the Program Manager on behalf of the Purchaser) shall work together in good faith to agree upon the Purchase Price Adjustment within five (5) Business Days following the date on which the Program Manager receives the proposed Purchase Price Adjustment from the Obligor. In no event, however, shall the Purchase Price Adjustment exceed an amount equal to the Repurchase Price for the applicable Mortgage Loan. If the Obligor and Program Manager are unable to timely agree upon the Purchase Price Adjustment, which determination shall be made in the Program Manager’s sole and absolute discretion, the Obligor shall repurchase the applicable Mortgage Loan in accordance with Section 3.03(b) at the Repurchase Price. In addition, the Purchaser agrees that with respect to any alleged breach of a representation that is due to or results in any tax, assessment or similar monetary lien, charge or encumbrance that adversely affects the value, enforceability or collectability of the related Mortgage Loan in any material respect, the Obligor shall have satisfied its cure obligation related thereto by paying in full the related amounts to the Purchaser (or its designee) or the applicable taxing authority (together with evidence of such payment reasonably satisfactory to the Purchaser), and upon such cure, the Purchaser shall be precluded from requesting any additional remedy related thereto from the Obligor. It is understood that the obligations of the Obligor to cure, pay the applicable Purchase Price Adjustment or repurchase as set forth in Sections 3.03(a) and 3.03(b) constitute the sole remedies of the Purchaser with respect to any Breach (whether sounding in contract or otherwise).
Any written notice provided pursuant to this Section 3.03 in connection with a Breach of any of the representations and warranties made by the Seller or the Obligor in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 of this Agreement shall set forth the following:
(1) for any Breach under Section 3.02, the identity of the Mortgage Loan (by the number assigned to such Mortgage Loan by the Seller at the time of sale as set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule) with respect to which a Breach is alleged to have occurred;
(2) a description of the claimed Breach;
(3) the section and (if applicable) subsection under which such Breach is claimed; and
(4) supporting documentation describing such claimed Breach, including (if applicable) copies of any documents necessary to determine that such alleged Breach exists.
(b) Repurchase.
