institution or trust company that is the principal subsidiary of a holding

short-term ratings of Xxxxx’x or Fitch and one of the two highest short-term

held on deposit therein, or (ii) an account or accounts in a depository
institution or trust company in which such accounts are insured by the FDIC
(to
the limits established by the FDIC) and the uninsured deposits in which accounts
are otherwise secured such that, as evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel delivered
to the Trustee and to each Rating Agency, the Certificateholders have a claim
with respect to the funds in such account or a perfected first priority security
interest against any collateral (which shall be limited to Permitted
Investments) securing such funds that is superior to claims of any other
depositors or creditors of the depository institution or trust company in which
such account is maintained, or (iii) a trust account or accounts maintained
with
(a) the trust department of a federal or state chartered depository institution
or (b) a trust company, acting in its fiduciary capacity or (iv) any other
account acceptable to each Rating Agency.”
(b) With
respect to the Specified Mortgage Loans, “Permitted Investments” shall have the
meaning of such term as defined in the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.
(c) The
definition of “Remittance Date” in Article I of the Agreement is hereby amended
and restated in its entirety as follows:
“Remittance
Date: No later than 1:00 p.m. New York time on the 18th day of
each month (or, if such 18th day is not a Business Day, the following Business
Day).”
(d) The
definition of “Servicing Fee Rate” in Article I of the Agreement is hereby
amended and restated in its entirety as follows:
“Servicing
Fee Rate”: With respect to the Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loans,
0.25% per annum.”
(e) The
second and third sentences of the first paragraph of Section 4.04 of the
Agreement are amended and restated in their entirety as follows:
“The
Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Account established with a Qualified
Depository acceptable to the Purchaser. Any funds deposited in the
Custodial Account shall at all times be fully insured.”
(f) Section
4.01 of the Agreement is hereby amended as follows:
(1) to
remove the obligation to require the consent of the Purchaser prior to the
modification, in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, of any Mortgage
Loan that is in default or with respect to which a default is reasonable
foreseeable; and
(2) to
require the Servicer to provide prior written notice to the Depositor, the
Master Servicer and each Rating Agency of any changes it intends to make to
its
policies and practices related to the modifications of Mortgage Loans prior
to
its implementation thereof.
(g) The
word
“and” is deleted from the end of Section 4.05(vii) of the Agreement, the word
“and” is added at the end of Section 4.05(vii) of the Agreement and the
following paragraph is hereby incorporated into the Agreement as new Section
4.05(ix):
4
“to
reimburse itself for unreimbursed Servicing Advances and for unreimbursed
Monthly Advances, in accordance with Section 5.03, to the extent that such
amounts are nonrecoverable by the Servicer pursuant to subclause (ii) or (iii)
above, provided that the Mortgage Loan for which such advances were made is
not
required to be repurchased by the Seller pursuant to
Section 3.03.”
(h) The
second paragraph of Section 4.16 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated
in its entirety as follows:
“With
respect to any REO Property, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken
in
the name of the Purchaser, or its designee. The Trustee’s name shall
be placed on the title to such REO Property solely as the Trustee hereunder
and
not in its individual capacity. The Servicer shall ensure that the
title to such REO Property references the Agreement and the Purchaser’s capacity
thereunder. Pursuant to its efforts to sell such REO Property, the
Servicer shall either itself or through an agent selected by the Servicer
protect and conserve such REO Property in the same manner and to such extent
as
is customary in the locality where such REO Property is located and may,
incident to its conservation and protection of the interests of the Purchaser,
or its designee, rent the same, or any part thereof, as the Servicer deems
to be
in the best interest of the Purchaser, or its designee, for the period prior
to
the sale of such REO Property. The Servicer shall prepare for and
deliver to the Purchaser, or its designee, a statement with respect to each
REO
Property that has been rented showing the aggregate rental income received
and
all expenses incurred in connection with the maintenance of such REO Property
at
such times as is necessary to enable the Purchaser, or its designee, to comply
with the reporting requirements of the REMIC Provisions. The net
monthly rental income, if any, from such REO Property shall be deposited in
the
Certificate Account no later than the close of business on each Determination
Date. The Servicer shall perform the tax reporting and withholding
required by Sections 1445 and 6050J of the Code with respect to foreclosures
and
abandonments, the tax reporting required by Section 6050H of the Code with
respect to the receipt of mortgage interest from individuals and any tax
reporting required by Section 6050P of the Code with respect to the cancellation
of indebtedness by certain financial entities, by preparing such tax and
information returns as may be required, in the form required, and delivering
the
same to the Purchaser, or its designee, for filing.
In
the
event that the Purchaser, or its designee, acquires any Mortgaged Property
as
aforesaid or otherwise in connection with a default or imminent default on
a
Mortgage Loan, the Servicer shall dispose of such Mortgaged Property as soon
as
practicable in a manner that maximizes the Liquidation Proceeds thereof, but
in
no event later than three years after its acquisition by the Purchaser, or
its
designee. In that event, the Purchaser, or its designee, shall have
been supplied with an Opinion of Counsel to the effect that the holding by
the
Purchaser, or its designee, of such Mortgaged Property subsequent to a
three-year period, if applicable, will not result in the imposition of taxes
on
“prohibited transactions” of any REMIC as defined in section 860F of the Code or
cause any REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time, the Purchaser, or
its
designee, may continue to hold such Mortgaged Property (subject to any
conditions contained in such Opinion of Counsel) after the expiration of such
three-year period. Notwithstanding any other provision of this
Agreement, no Mortgaged Property acquired by the Purchaser, or its designee,
shall be rented (or allowed to continue to be rented) or otherwise used for
the
production of income by or on behalf of the Purchaser, or its designee, in
such
a manner or pursuant to any terms that would (i) cause such Mortgaged Property
to fail to qualify as “foreclosure property” within the meaning of section
860G(a)(8) of the Code or (ii) subject any REMIC to the imposition of any
federal, state or local income taxes on the income earned from such Mortgaged
Property under Section 860G(c) of the Code or otherwise, unless the Servicer
has
agreed to indemnify and hold harmless the Purchaser, or its designee, with
respect to the imposition of any such taxes.”
(i) The
second paragraph of Section 5.01 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated
in its entirety as follows:
5
“With
respect to any remittance received by the Purchaser after the Business Day
on
which such payment was due, the Company shall pay to the Purchaser interest
on
any such late payment at an annual rate equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted as
of
the date of each change, plus three percentage points, but in no event greater
than the maximum amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall be
deposited in the Custodial Account by the Company on the date such late payment
is made and shall cover the period commencing with such Business Day and ending
with the Business Day on which such payment is made, both inclusive. Such
interest shall be remitted along with the distribution payable on the next
succeeding Remittance Date. The payment by the Company of any such interest
shall not be deemed an extension of time for payment or a waiver of any Event
of
Default by the Company.”
(j) The
first
sentence of Section 5.02 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in
its
entirety as follows:
“Not
later than the 5th Business
Day of
each month (or if such 5th day is
not a
Business Day, the Business Day next succeeding such 5th day), the
Company
shall furnish to the Master Servicer in electronic form mortgage loan level
data
as mutually agreed upon by the Servicer and the Master Servicer and the monthly
reports substantially in the form of Exhibit II attached hereto with respect
to
the Mortgage Loans and the period from but including the first day of the
preceding calendar month through but excluding the first day of such
month. The preceding sentence notwithstanding, the Purchaser and the
Servicer acknowledge and agree that the purpose of reporting the information
set
forth in Exhibit IIC-1 (the “Loan Modification Information”) is to
facilitate compliance by the Purchaser with certain Rating Agency requirements,
and the Purchaser and the Servicer both acknowledge that those requirements,
and
therefore what constitutes Loan Modification Information, may change over
time. The Purchaser shall not exercise its right to request delivery
of information under these provisions other than in good faith, or for purposes
other than compliance with Rating Agency requirements. The Servicer
agrees to use its best efforts to deliver to the Purchaser and its designees
(including the Master Servicer) all required Loan Modification Information
on a
timely basis to permit the Purchaser to comply with any related Rating Agency
requirements. To the extent that, as of any date that the Servicer
would be required to deliver it, the Servicer is unable to provide any portion
of the Loan Modification Information, the Servicer hereby agrees that it will
state which portion and the reasons for its inability to provide
it.”
(k) Section
5.03 of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as
follows:
“Monthly
Advances by Company. On the Business Day immediately preceding
each Remittance Date, the Company shall either (a) deposit in the Custodial
Account from its own funds an amount equal to the principal and interest portion
of all Monthly Payments (with interest adjusted to the Mortgage Loan Remittance
Rate) which were due on the Mortgage Loans during the applicable Due Period
and
which were delinquent at the close of business on the immediately preceding
Determination Date or which were deferred pursuant to Section 4.01,
(b) cause to be made an appropriate entry in the records of the Custodial
Account that amounts held for future distribution have been, as permitted by
this Section 5.03, used by the Servicer in discharge of any such Monthly
Advance or (c) make Monthly Advances in the form of any combination of (a)
or (b) aggregating the total amount of Monthly Advances to be
made. The Company’s obligation to make such Monthly Advances as to
any Mortgage Loan will continue through the last Monthly Payment due prior
to
the payment in full of the Mortgage Loan, or through the last Remittance Date
prior to the Remittance Date for the distribution of all Liquidation Proceeds
and other payments or recoveries (including Insurance Proceeds and Condemnation
Proceeds) with respect to the Mortgage Loan; provided, however, that such
obligation shall cease if the Servicer, in its good faith judgment, determines
that a Monthly Advance would not be recoverable pursuant to
Section 4.05(ii). The determination by the Servicer that a Monthly Advance,
if made, would be
6
nonrecoverable,
shall be evidenced by an Officer’s Certificate of the Servicer, delivered to the
Purchaser, which details the reasons for such determination.”
(l) The
word
“or” is added at the end of Section 10.01(ix) of the Agreement and the following
paragraph is hereby incorporated into the Agreement as new Section
10.01(x):
“(x) failure
by the Servicer to duly perform, within the required time period, its
obligations under Sections 13.04 or 13.05 which failure continues unremedied
for
a period of fourteen (14) days after the date on which written notice of such
failure, requiring the same to be remedied, shall have been given to the
Servicer by any party to this Agreement or by any master servicer responsible
for master servicing the Mortgage Loans pursuant to a securitization of such
Mortgage Loans;”
(m)
With
respect to the Specified Mortgage Loans, Section 11.02 of the Agreement is
hereby deleted.
(n)
The
following paragraph is hereby incorporated into the Agreement as new Section
12.14:

not limited to Subsection 13.04 and Subsection 13.05, any Master Servicer shall
be considered a third party beneficiary to this Agreement entitled to all the
rights and benefits accruing to any Master Servicer herein as if it were a
direct party to this Agreement.”
(o) Section
13.03(d) of the Agreement is hereby amended and restated in its entirety as
follows:

the purpose of satisfying the reporting obligation under the Exchange Act with
respect to any class of asset-backed securities, each Seller and the Company

With
respect to the Representations and
Warranties on this Schedule B, capitalized terms used but not defined in this
Assignment shall have the meanings ascribed thereto in the
Agreement.
Representations
and Warranties Respecting the Company. The Seller represents,
warrants and covenants to MSMCH, the Trustee, MSC and Master Servicer as of

Organization and Authority. The Company is a corporation duly
organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of the State
of
Ohio and has all licenses necessary to carry on its business as now being
conducted and is licensed, qualified and in good standing in each state where
a
Mortgaged Property is located if the laws of such state require licensing or
qualification in order to conduct business of the type conducted by the Company,
and in any event the Company is in compliance with the laws of any such state
to
the extent necessary to ensure the enforceability of the related Mortgage Loan
and the servicing of such Mortgage Loan in accordance with the terms of this
Agreement; the Company has the full corporate power and authority to hold each
Mortgage Loan, to sell each Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver this
Agreement and to perform in accordance herewith; the execution, delivery and
performance of this Agreement (including all instruments of transfer to be
delivered pursuant to this Agreement) by the Company and the consummation of
the
transactions contemplated hereby have been duly and validly authorized; this
Agreement evidences the valid, binding and enforceable obligation of the
Company; and all requisite corporate action has been taken by the Company to
make this Agreement valid and binding upon the Company in accordance with its
terms;
(b) Ordinary
Course of Business. The consummation of the transactions
contemplated by this Agreement are in the ordinary course of business of the
Company, and the transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Mortgage Notes
and
the Mortgages by the Company pursuant to this Agreement are not subject to
the
bulk transfer or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any applicable
jurisdiction;
(c) No
Conflicts. Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement,
the acquisition of the Mortgage Loans by the Company, the sale of the Mortgage
Loans to the Purchaser or the transactions contemplated hereby, nor the
fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and conditions of this Agreement,
will conflict with or result in a breach of any of the terms, conditions or
provisions of the Company’s charter or by-laws or any legal restriction or any
agreement or instrument to which the Company is now a party or by which it
is
bound, or constitute a default or result in an acceleration under any of the
foregoing, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order,
judgment or decree to which the Company or its property is subject, or impair
the ability of the Purchaser to realize on the Mortgage Loans, or impair the
value of the Mortgage Loans;
(d) Ability
to Service. The Company is an approved seller/servicer of
conventional residential mortgage loans for Xxxxxx Xxx or Xxxxxxx Mac, with
the
facilities, procedures, and experienced personnel necessary for the sound
servicing of mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage
Loans. The Company is in good standing to sell mortgage loans to and
service mortgage loans for Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac, and no event has occurred,
including but not limited to a change in insurance coverage, which would make
the Company unable to comply with Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx Mac eligibility
requirements or which would require notification to either Xxxxxx Mae or Xxxxxxx
Mac;
(e) Reasonable
Servicing Fee. The Company acknowledges and agrees that the
Servicing Fee, as calculated at the Servicing Fee Rate, represents reasonable
compensation for performing such services and that the entire Servicing Fee
shall be treated by the Company, for accounting and tax purposes, as
compensation for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans pursuant
to this Agreement.
(f) Ability
to Perform. The Company does not believe, nor does it have any
reason or cause to believe, that it cannot perform each and every covenant
contained in this Agreement. The Company is solvent and will not be
rendered insolvent by the consummation of the transactions contemplated
hereby. The sale of the Mortgage Loans is not undertaken to hinder,
delay or defraud any of the Company’s creditors;
(g) No
Litigation Pending. There is no action, suit, proceeding or
investigation pending or to the best of the Company’s knowledge threatened
against the Company which, either in any one instance or in the aggregate,
may
result in any material adverse change in the business, operations, financial
condition, properties or assets of the Company, or in any material impairment
of
the right or ability of the Company to carry on its business substantially
as
now conducted, or in any material liability on the part of the Company, or
which
would draw into question the validity of this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans
or
of any action taken or to be taken in connection with the obligations of the
Company contemplated herein, or which would be likely to impair materially
the
ability of the Company to perform under the terms of this
Agreement;

Consent Required. No consent, approval, authorization or order
of any court or governmental agency or body is required for the execution,
delivery and performance by the Company of or compliance by the Company with
this Agreement or the sale of the Mortgage Loans as evidenced by the
consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or if required,
such approval has been obtained prior to the related Closing Date;
(i) Selection
Process. The Mortgage Loans were selected from among the
outstanding fixed or adjustable rate one- to four-family mortgage loans in
the
Company’s portfolio at the related Closing Date as to which the representations
and warranties set forth in Section 3.02 could be made and such
selection was not made in a manner so as to affect adversely the interests
of
the Purchaser;
(j) Pool
Characteristics. With respect to each Mortgage Loan Package, the
Mortgage Loan characteristics set forth on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule
attached to the related Assignment and Conveyance are true and
complete;
(k) No
Untrue Information. Neither this Agreement nor any statement,
report or other document furnished or to be furnished pursuant to this Agreement
or any Reconstitution Agreement or in connection with the transactions
contemplated hereby including any Securitization Transaction or Whole Loan
Transfer contains any untrue statement of fact or omits to state a fact
necessary to make the statements contained therein not misleading;
(l) Sale
Treatment. The disposition of the Mortgage Loans shall be
treated as a sale on the books and records of the Company. The
Company has determined that the disposition of the Mortgage Loans pursuant
to
this Agreement will be afforded sale treatment for accounting and tax
purposes. The Company shall maintain a complete set of books and
records for each Mortgage Loan, which shall be clearly marked to reflect the
ownership of such Mortgage Loan;
(m) Financial
Statements. The Company has delivered to the Purchaser financial
statements as to its last three complete fiscal years and any later quarter
ended more than 60 days prior to the execution of this
Agreement. All such financial statements fairly present the pertinent
results of operations and changes in financial position at the end of each
such
period of the Company and its subsidiaries and have been prepared in accordance
with generally accepted accounting principles consistently applied throughout
the periods involved, except as set forth in the notes thereto. There
has been no change in the business, operations, financial condition, properties
or assets of the Company since the date of the Company’s financial statements
that would have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its
obligations under this Agreement. The Company has completed any forms
requested by the Purchaser in a timely manner and in accordance with the
provided instructions;
(n) No
Brokers’ Fees. The Company has not dealt with any broker,
investment banker, agent or other person that may be entitled to any commission
or compensation in connection with the sale of the Mortgage Loans;
(o) Origination. The
Company’s decision to originate any mortgage loan or to deny any mortgage loan
application is an independent decision based upon Company’s Underwriting
Guidelines, and is in no way made as a result of Purchaser’s decision
to purchase, or not to purchase, or the price Purchaser may offer to pay for,
any such mortgage loan, if originated;
(p) Fair
Consideration. The consideration received by the Company upon
the sale of the Mortgage Loans under this Agreement constitutes fair
consideration and reasonably equivalent value for the Mortgage
Loans;

Mortgage Notes and the Mortgages by the Company pursuant to this Agreement
are
not subject to the bulk transfer or any similar statutory provisions in effect
in any applicable jurisdiction;
(r) Ability
to Perform; Solvency. The Company does not believe, nor does it
have any reason or cause to believe, that it cannot perform each and every
covenant contained in this Agreement. The Company is solvent and the
sale of the Mortgage Loans will not cause the Company to become
insolvent. The sale of the Mortgage Loans is not undertaken with the
intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of Company’s creditors;
(s) Anti-Money
Laundering Laws. The Company has complied with all applicable
anti-money laundering laws, executive orders and regulations, including without
limitation the USA Patriot Act of 2001 (collectively, the “Anti-Money
Laundering Laws”); the Company has established an anti-money laundering
compliance program as required by the Anti-Money Laundering Laws, has conducted
the requisite due diligence in connection with the origination of each Mortgage
Loan for purposes of the Anti-Money Laundering Laws, including with respect
to
the legitimacy of the applicable Mortgagor and the origin of the assets used
by
the said Mortgagor to purchase the property in question, and maintains, and
will
maintain, sufficient information to identify the applicable Mortgagor for
purposes of the Anti-Money Laundering Laws; and
(t) Officer’s
Certificate The Officer’s Certificate provided by the Company
with respect to the initial Closing Date will remain true and correct with

Representations
and Warranties Regarding Individual Mortgage Loans.
As
to
each Specified Mortgage Loan, the Company represents, warrants and covenants
to
MSMCH, the Trustee, MSC and the Master Servicer as of the Closing
Date:
(a) Mortgage
Loans as Described. The information set forth in the related
Mortgage Loan Schedule is complete, true and correct;
(b) Payments
Current. All payments required to be made up to the related
Closing Date for each Mortgage Loan under the terms of the Mortgage Note have
been made and credited. No payment required under the Mortgage Loan
has been 30 or more days delinquent at any time in the 12 months
preceding the related Closing Date. The first Monthly Payment shall
be made with respect to the Mortgage Loan on its Due Date, all in accordance
with the terms of the related Mortgage Note. The first two Monthly
Payments after the relevant Cut-off Date shall be made with respect to the
Mortgage Loan within thirty (30) days of the related Due Date, all in
accordance with the terms of the related Mortgage Note;
(c) No
Outstanding Charges. There are no defaults in complying with the
terms of the Mortgages, and all taxes, governmental assessments, insurance
premiums, ground rents, leasehold payments, 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. The Company has not 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 Mortgage Loan proceeds, whichever is greater, to the day
which precedes by one month the Due Date of the first installment of principal
and interest;
(d) Original
Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage
have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except
by a
written instrument which has been recorded, if necessary to protect the
interests of the Purchaser and which has been delivered to the
Custodian. The substance of any such waiver, alteration or
modification has been approved by FHA or VA, as applicable, or the issuer of
any
related PMI Policy and the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy,
and its terms are reflected on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule. No
instrument of waiver, alteration or modification has been executed, and no
Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with
an
assumption agreement approved by the issuer of any related PMI Policy and the
title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption
agreement is part of the Mortgage Loan File delivered to the Custodian and
the
terms of which are reflected in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule;
(e) No
Defenses. The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any 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, or subject
to
any right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including without
limitation the defense of usury, and no such right of rescission, set-off,
counterclaim or defense has been asserted with respect thereto, and no Mortgagor
was a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency proceeding at
the
time the Mortgage Loan was originated;
(f) Hazard
Insurance. All buildings or other improvements upon the
Mortgaged Property are insured by a generally acceptable insurer against loss
by
fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as are customary
in
the area where the Mortgaged Property is located pursuant to insurance policies
conforming to the requirements of Section 4.10. If the
Mortgaged Property is in an area identified in the Federal Register by the
Federal Emergency Management Agency as having special flood hazards (and such
flood insurance has been made available) a flood insurance policy meeting the
requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Flood Insurance
Administration is in effect which policy conforms to the requirements of
Section 4.10. All individual insurance policies contain a
standard mortgagee clause naming the Company and its successors and assigns
as mortgagee, and all premiums thereon have been paid. The Mortgage
obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the hazard insurance policy
at
the Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor’s failure to do so,
authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to obtain and maintain such insurance
at
such Mortgagor’s cost and expense, and to seek reimbursement therefor from the
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 the common facilities of a planned unit
development. The hazard insurance policy is the valid and binding
obligation of the insurer, is in full force and effect, and will be in full
force and effect and inure to the benefit of the Purchaser upon the consummation
of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. The Company has
not
engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor, any Subservicer or any prior
originator or subservicer 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, unlawful commission, unlawful 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 or entity, and no
such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by the
Company;
(g) 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, predatory, abusive and fair lending and disclosure laws applicable
to the origination and servicing of the Mortgage Loan, including, without
limitation, any provisions relating to prepayment penalties, have been complied
with, and the Company shall maintain in its possession, available for the
Purchaser’s inspection, and shall deliver to the Purchaser upon demand, evidence
of compliance with all such requirements;
(h) 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 Company 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
the
Company waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the
Mortgagor;
(i) Location
and Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is a fee
simple or leasehold property located in the state identified in the related
Mortgage Loan Schedule and consists of a 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, provided,
however, that any condominium project or planned unit development shall
conform with the Company’s Underwriting Guidelines regarding such dwellings, and
no residence or dwelling is a mobile home or a manufactured
dwelling. No portion of the Mortgaged Property is used for commercial
purposes. None of the Mortgaged Properties are Manufactured Homes,
log homes, mobile homes, geodesic domes or other unique property
types;
(j) Valid
First or Second Lien. The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting,
enforceable and perfected first lien (with respect to a First Lien Loan) or
second lien (with respect to a Second Lien Loan)on the Mortgaged Property,
including all buildings and improvements on the Mortgaged Property, and all
additions, alterations and replacements made at any time with respect to the
foregoing. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:
(a) with
respect to a Second Lien Loan only, the lien on the first mortgage on the
Mortgaged Property;
(b) the
lien
of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and
payable;
(c) covenants,
conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of
the
public record as of the date of recording acceptable to mortgage lending
institutions generally and specifically referred to in the lender’s title
insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and
(i) referred to or to otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the
originator of the Mortgage Loan or (ii) which do not adversely affect the
Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal;
and
(d) 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.
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 (with respect to a First Lien Loan) or
second lien (with respect to a Second Lien Loan) and first priority (with
respect to a First Lien Loan) or second priority (with respect to a Second
Lien
Loan) security interest on the property described therein and the Company has
full right to sell and assign the same to the Purchaser. The
Mortgaged Property was not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan,
subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secured debt or other security
instrument creating a lien subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage;
With
respect to any Co-op Loan, the related Mortgage is a valid, subsisting and
enforceable first priority security interest on the related cooperative shares
securing the Mortgage Note, subject only to (a) liens of the related
residential cooperative housing corporation for unpaid assessments representing
the Mortgagor’s pro rata share of the related residential cooperative housing
corporation’s payments for its blanket mortgage, current and future real
property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance fees and other assessments
to
which like collateral is commonly subject and (b) other matters to which
like collateral is commonly subject which do not materially interfere with
the
benefits of the security interest intended to be provided by the related
Security Agreement;
(k) Validity
of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are
genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker
thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms (including, without limitation,
any provisions relating to prepayment penalties). All parties to the
Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other related agreement had legal
capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage
Note and the Mortgage and any other related agreement, and the Mortgage Note
and
the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such
parties. The documents, instruments and agreements submitted for loan
underwriting were not falsified and contain no untrue statement of material
fact
or omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or necessary
to
make the information and statements therein not misleading. No fraud
was committed in connection with
the
origination of the Mortgage Loan. The Company has reviewed all of the
documents constituting the Servicing File and has made such inquiries as it
deems necessary to make and confirm the accuracy of the representations set
forth herein;
(l) 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
requirement for future advances thereunder, and 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. 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;
(m) Ownership. The
Company is the sole owner of record and holder of the Mortgage
Loan. The Mortgage Loan is not assigned or pledged, and the Company
has good and marketable title thereto, and has full right to transfer and sell
the Mortgage Loan therein to the Purchaser 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, to sell and assign each
Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement;
(n) 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)
(1) in compliance with any and all applicable licensing requirements of the
laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged Property is located and any
qualification requirements of FHA, Xxxxxxx Mac, Xxxxxx Xxx, GNMA or VA, as
applicable, and (2) (a) organized under the laws of such state,
(b) qualified to do business in such state, (c) federal savings and
loan associations or national banks having principal offices in such state,
or
(d) not doing business in such state;
(o) CLTV,
LTV, PMI Policy. No Mortgage Loan that is a Second Lien Loan has
a CLTV greater than 100%. No Mortgage Loan has a LTV equal to or
greater than 95%. The original LTV of the Mortgage Loan either was
not more than 80% or (i) the excess over 75% is and will be insured as to
payment defaults by a PMI Policy until the LTV of such Mortgage Loan is reduced
to 80%, or (ii) is subject to an LPMI Policy, which will stay in effect for
the life of the Mortgage Loan. All provisions of such PMI Policy have
been and are being complied with, such policy is in full force and effect,
and
all premiums due thereunder have been paid. No action, inaction, or
event has occurred and no state of facts exists that has, or will result in
the
exclusion from, denial of, or defense to coverage. Any Mortgage Loan
subject to a PMI Policy obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the
PMI
Policy and to pay all premiums and charges in connection therewith; provided,
that, with respect to LPMI Loans, the related Servicer is obligated thereunder
to maintain the LPMI Policy and to pay all premiums and charges in connection
therewith.. The Mortgage Interest Rate for the Mortgage Loan as set
forth on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule is net of any such insurance premium
if the related PMI Policy is lender-paid;
(p) 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 where the Mortgaged
Property is located or (ii) an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or
other generally acceptable form of policy of insurance acceptable to Xxxxxx
Xxx,
Xxxxxxx Mac, GNMA, FHA, VA, as applicable, issued by a title insurer acceptable
to Xxxxxx Mae, Xxxxxxx Mac, GNMA, FHA, VA as applicable, and qualified to do
business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring
the Company, its successors and assigns, (a) as to the first (with respect
to a First Lien Loan) or second (with respect to a Second Lien Loan) priority
lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan,
subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (1), (2) and (3) of
paragraph (j) of this Section 3.02, and (b) against any
loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting
from
the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustments to the Mortgage
Interest Rate and Monthly Payment. 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 lender’s
title insurance policy affirmatively insures ingress and egress, and against
encroachments by or upon the Mortgaged Property or any interest
therein. The Company is the sole insured of such lender’s title
insurance policy, and such lender’s title insurance policy is 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
lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the Mortgage, including
the Company, 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 or entity, and no such unlawful items have been received,
retained or realized by the Company;
(q) No
Defaults. There is no default, breach, violation or event of
acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and there is
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, and neither the Company nor its predecessors have waived any
default, breach, violation or event of acceleration;
(r) 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
related Mortgaged Property which are or may be liens prior to, or equal or
coordinate with, the lien of the related Mortgage;
(s) Location
of Improvements; No Encroachments. All improvements which were
considered in determining the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property lay
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 law or
regulation;
(t) Origination;
Payment Terms. The Mortgage Loan was originated by 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 other similar
institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state
authority. Principal payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more
than seventy days after funds were disbursed in connection with the
Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Interest Rate and, with respect to any
Adjustable Rate Mortgage Loan, the Lifetime Rate Cap, the Periodic Cap, and
the
Adjustment Date, are as set forth on the related Mortgage Loan
Schedule. 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 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 fifteen years from
commencement of amortization. Unless otherwise specified on the
related Mortgage Loan Schedule, the Mortgage Loan is payable on the first day
of
each month. There are no Convertible Mortgage Loans which contain a
provision allowing the Mortgagor to convert the Mortgage Note from an adjustable
interest rate Mortgage Note to a fixed interest rate Mortgage
Note. The Mortgage Loan does not require a balloon payment on its
stated maturity date;
(u) Customary
Provisions. 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
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;
(v) Conformance
with Underwriting Guidelines. The Mortgage Loan was underwritten
in accordance with the Company’s Underwriting Guidelines in effect at the time
the Mortgage Loan was originated. The Mortgage Loan is in conformity
with the standards of Xxxxxxx Mac or Xxxxxx Mae under one of their respective
home mortgage purchase programs (except that the principal balance of certain
Mortgage Loans may have exceeded the limits of Xxxxxx Xxx and Xxxxxxx Mac)
and
the Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms acceptable to Xxxxxxx Mac, Xxxxxx
Xxx;
(w) Occupancy
of the Mortgaged Property. As of the related Closing 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

required to select a mortgage loan product offered by the Mortgage Loan’s
originator which is a higher cost product designed for less creditworthy
borrowers, unless at the time of the Mortgage

origination, such Mortgagor did not qualify taking into account such facts
as,
without limitation, the Mortgage Loan’s requirements and the Mortgagor’s credit
history, income, assets and liabilities and debt-to-income ratios for a
lower-cost credit product then offered by the Mortgage Loan’s originator or any
affiliate of the Mortgage Loan’s originator. If, at the time of loan
application, the Mortgagor may have qualified for a lower-cost credit product
then offered by any mortgage lending affiliate of the Mortgage Loan’s
originator, the Mortgage Loan’s originator referred the Mortgagor’s application
to such affiliate for underwriting consideration. For a Mortgagor who
seeks financing through a Mortgage Loan originator’s higher-priced subprime
lending channel, the Mortgagor was directed towards or offered the Mortgage

originator’s standard mortgage line if the Mortgagor was able to qualify for one
of the standard products, unless such Mortgagor requested a specific
product;
(rrr) Underwriting
Methodology. The methodology used in underwriting the extension
of credit for each Mortgage Loan does not rely solely on the extent of the
Mortgagor’s equity in the collateral as the principal determining factor in
approving such extension of credit. The methodology employed objective criteria
such as the Mortgagor’s income, assets and liabilities, to the proposed mortgage
payment and, based on such methodology, the Mortgage Loan’s originator made a
reasonable determination that at the time of origination the Mortgagor had
the
ability to make timely payments on the Mortgage Loan. Such
underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of origination
(application/approval) the Mortgagor had a reasonable ability to make timely
payments on the Mortgage Loan;

and Fees. No Mortgagor was charged “points and fees” (whether or
not financed) in an amount greater than 5% of the principal amount of such

Mae’s
anti-predatory lending requirements as set forth in the Xxxxxx Mae Guides and
“points and fees” (x) include origination, underwriting, broker and
finder fees and charges that the mortgagee imposed as a condition of making
the
Mortgage Loan, whether they are paid to the mortgagee or a third party; and
(y)
exclude bona fide discount points, fees paid for actual services rendered
in connection with the origination of the Mortgage Loan (such as attorneys’
fees, notaries fees and fees paid for property appraisals, credit reports,
surveys, title examinations and extracts, flood and tax certifications, and
home
inspections), the cost of mortgage insurance or credit-risk price adjustments,
the costs of title, hazard, and flood insurance policies, state and local
transfer taxes or fees, escrow deposits for the future payment of taxes and
insurance premiums, and other miscellaneous fees and charges which miscellaneous
fees and charges in total, do not exceed 0.25% of the principal amount of such
Mortgage Loan;
(ttt) Fees
Charges. All points, fees and charges (including finance charges)

taken against the Mortgagor by such senior lienholder. Either (a) no
consent for the Second Lien Loan is required by the holder of the related first
lien loan or (b) such consent has been obtained and is contained in the related
Mortgage File;
No
Default Under First Lien. To the best of Seller’s knowledge, the
related first lien loan is in full force and effect, and there is no default
lien, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration existing under
such first lien mortgage or mortgage note, and 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 which would permit acceleration
under such first lien loan;
Right
to Cure First Lien. The related first lien mortgage contains a
provision which provides for giving notice of default or breach to the mortgagee
under the Mortgage Loan and allows such mortgagee to cure any default under
the
related first lien mortgage; and

principal residence.
