SECTION 5. Representations and Warranties. Exhibit L of the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement is hereby amended by deleting paragraphs (o), (r), (w), (dd), (gg),
(ii) and (ss) in its entirety and replacing it with the following:
(o) Location and Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached single family residence erected thereon, or a two- to four-family dwelling, or such other dwelling(s) conforming with the applicable Xxxxxx Xxx and Xxxxxxx Mac requirements regarding such dwellings or conforming to Seller’s underwriting guidelines; provided that no residence or dwelling is a condominium unit or Cooperative Unit (unless the related Mortgage Loan (i) was originated in compliance with the Agency Guides or (ii) is a Jumbo Non-Warrantable Condo Mortgage Loan), a mobile home or a manufactured home (other than a manufactured home that meets the criteria set forth in the definition of Manufactured Home Loan). No portion of the Mortgaged Property is used for commercial purposes; provided that Mortgaged Properties which contain a home office shall not be considered as being used for commercial purposes as long as the entire Mortgaged Property has not been altered for commercial purposes.
(r) Lien Position. The Mortgage Loan is secured by a valid first priority lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property, under the laws of the state where the related mortgaged property is located; provided, however, that if the Mortgage Loan is a Closed-End Second Lien Mortgage Loan, it is secured by a valid second lien on the Mortgaged Property. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:
(i) reserved;
(ii) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;
(iii) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to prudent
mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in Buyer’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;
(iv) 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
(v) in the case of a Closed-End Second Lien Mortgage Loan, any first priority lien on the Mortgaged Property that has been disclosed to Buyer.
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 first lien and first priority security interest (or in the case of Closed-End Second Lien Mortgage Loans, a second lien and second priority interest) on the property described therein and Seller has full right to pledge and assign the same to Buyer.
(w) Title Insurance. The Mortgage Loan is covered either by (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of which is acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans, in the area where the Mortgage Property is located, or (ii) a valid and enforceable title insurance policy or commitment to issue such title insurance policy, which title insurance policy insures (or will insure) that the Mortgage relating thereto is a valid first lien or second lien, as applicable, on the Mortgaged Property therein described and that such Mortgaged Property is free and clear of all encumbrances and liens having priority over the first lien of the Mortgage (or with respect to a Closed-End Second Lien Mortgage Loan, the priority over the second lien of the Mortgage (other than, for the avoidance of doubt, any first lien of the Mortgage that has been disclosed to Buyer)), subject only to the exceptions contained in subpart (r) of this Exhibit L, and is otherwise in compliance with the requirements of the applicable Approved Investor. Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such title insurance policy, and such 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 Agreement. No claims have been made under such title insurance policy, and no prior holder, servicer or subservicer of the related Mortgage, including Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such 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 Seller, in any case to the extent it would impair the coverage of any such policy.
(dd) Consolidation of Future Advances. Any future advances made to the Mortgagor prior to the Purchase 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 first lien priority (or with respect to a Closed-End Second Lien Mortgage Loan, second lien priority) by a title insurance policy, an endorsement to the policy insuring the mortgagee’s consolidated interest or by other title evidence acceptable to FHA, VA, RD, Xxxxxx Mae and Xxxxxxx Mac. The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.
(gg) Appraisal. Except as may otherwise be permitted by the applicable Agency and except for Closed-End Second Lien Mortgage Loans with an original loan amount less than or equal to $100,000, a full appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property was conducted and executed prior to the funding of the Mortgage Loan by a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by 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, and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy the relevant FHA, VA, RD, Xxxxxx Mae and Xxxxxxx Mac guidelines, as applicable, each as amended and as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated. With respect to a Closed-End Second Lien Mortgage Loan with an original loan amount less than or equal to $100,000, a Review Appraisal approved by Buyer in its sole discretion was conducted and executed prior to the funding of the Mortgage Loan by a qualified appraiser who had no interest, direct or indirect in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan secured thereby, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan.
(ii) Construction or Rehabilitation of Mortgaged Property. For all Mortgage Loans other than specific mortgage products agreed upon by Buyer in writing, 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.
(ss) Mortgaged Property Undamaged. The Mortgaged Property is in good repair and undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect materially and adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan, except with respect to specific mortgage products agreed upon by Buyer in writing.
SECTION 6. Fees and Expenses. Seller hereby agrees to pay to Buyer, on demand, any and all reasonable fees, costs and expenses (including reasonable fees and expenses of counsel) incurred by Buyer in connection with the development, preparation and execution of this Amendment, irrespective of whether any transactions hereunder are executed.
SECTION 7. Conditions Precedent. This Amendment shall become effective as of the date hereof upon Buyer’s receipt of this Amendment, executed and delivered by a duly authorized officer of Buyer and Seller.
SECTION 8. Limited Effect. Except as expressly amended and modified by this Amendment, the Existing Master Repurchase Agreement shall continue to be, and shall remain, in full force and effect in accordance with its terms.
SECTION 9. Counterparts. This Amendment may be executed in any number of counterparts each of which shall constitute one and the same instrument, and each party hereto may execute this Amendment by signing any such counterpart. Delivery of an executed counterpart of a signature page of this Amendment in Portable Document Format (PDF) or by facsimile shall be effective as delivery of a manually executed original counterpart of this Amendment.
SECTION 10. Severability. Each provision and agreement herein shall be treated as separate and independent from any other provision or agreement herein and shall be enforceable notwithstanding the unenforceability of any such other provision or agreement.
SECTION 11. GOVERNING LAW. THIS AMENDMENT AND THE RIGHTS AND OBLIGATIONS OF THE PARTIES HEREUNDER SHALL BE CONSTRUED IN ACCORDANCE WITH AND GOVERNED BY THE LAWS OF THE STATE OF NEW YORK, WITHOUT REGARD TO PRINCIPLES OF CONFLICTS OF LAWS (OTHER THAN SECTION 5-1401 OF THE NEW YORK GENERAL OBLIGATIONS LAW).
