"Agreement"), by and between XXXXXXX XXXXX MORTGAGE LENDING, INC., a Delaware
corporation (the "Seller"), and XXXXXXX XXXXX MORTGAGE INVESTORS, INC., a
Delaware corporation (the "Purchaser").
Upon the terms and subject to the conditions of this Agreement, the
Seller agrees to sell, and the Purchaser agrees to purchase, certain first lien,
adjustable-rate, negative amortization mortgage loans secured by one- to
four-family residences, townhouses, individual condominiums, modular housing and
units in planned unit developments (collectively, the "Mortgage Loans") as
described herein. The Purchaser intends to deposit the Mortgage Loans into a
trust fund (the "Trust Fund") and create Xxxxxxx Xxxxx Alternative Note Asset
Trust, Series 2007-OAR4 Mortgage Pass-Through Certificates (the "Certificates"),
under a pooling and servicing agreement, to be dated as of July 1, 2007 (the

series thereof (including certain classes of the Certificates) from time to time
in accordance with Rule 415 under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended, and
the rules and regulations of the Commission promulgated thereunder (the
"Securities Act"). Such registration statement, when it became effective under
the Securities Act, and the prospectus relating to the public offering of
certain classes of the Certificates by the Purchaser (the "Public Offering"), as
from time to time each is amended or supplemented pursuant to the Securities Act
or otherwise, are referred to herein as the "Registration Statement" and the
"Prospectus," respectively. The "Prospectus Supplement" shall mean that
supplement, dated August 9, 2007, to the Prospectus relating to certain classes
of the Certificates. With respect to the Public Offering of certain classes of
the Certificates, the Purchaser and Xxxxxxx Lynch, Pierce, Xxxxxx & Xxxxx
Incorporated ("Xxxxxxx Xxxxx") have entered into a Terms Agreement dated as of
August 8, 2007 to an underwriting agreement dated February 28, 2003, between the

(a) The Purchaser will be entitled to all scheduled payments of principal

and interest received after the Cut-off Date. The Seller will be entitled to all
scheduled payments of principal and interest on the Mortgage Loans due on or

and all payments thereof other than scheduled principal and interest on the
Mortgage Loans received on or before the Cut-off Date. Such principal amounts
and any interest thereon belonging to the Seller as described above will not be

(b) Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Purchaser will
assign on the Closing Date all of its right, title and interest in and to the
Mortgage Loans to the Trustee for the benefit of the Certificateholders. In
connection with the transfer and assignment of the Mortgage Loans, the Seller
has delivered or will deliver or cause to be delivered to the Trustee (or the
Custodian on its behalf) by the Closing Date, the items of each Mortgage File,
provided, however, that in lieu of the foregoing, the Seller may deliver the
following documents, under the circumstances set forth below: (x) in lieu of the
original Mortgage, assignments to the Trustee or intervening assignments thereof
which have been delivered, are being delivered or will upon receipt of recording
information relating to the Mortgage required to be included thereon, be
delivered to recording offices for recording and have not been returned in time
to permit their delivery as specified above, the Seller may deliver a true copy
thereof with a certification by the Seller or the applicable originator, on the
face of such copy, substantially as follows: "Certified to be a true and correct
copy of the original, which has been transmitted for recording;" (y) in lieu of
the Mortgage, assignments to the Trustee or intervening assignments thereof, if
the
4
applicable jurisdiction retains the originals of such documents or if the
originals are lost (in each case, as evidenced by a certification from the
Seller to such effect), the Seller may deliver photocopies of such documents
containing an original certification by the judicial or other governmental
authority of the jurisdiction where such documents were recorded; and (z) in
lieu of the Mortgage Notes relating to the Mortgage Loans, each identified in
the list delivered by the Purchaser to the Trustee on the Closing Date and
attached hereto as Exhibit 3 the Seller may deliver lost note affidavits and
indemnities of the Seller; and provided further, however, that in the case of
Mortgage Loans which have been prepaid in full after the Cut-off Date and prior
to the Closing Date, the Seller, in lieu of delivering the above documents, may
deliver to the Trustee a certification by the Seller to such effect. The Seller
shall deliver such original documents (including any original documents as to
which certified copies had previously been delivered) or such certified copies
to the Trustee promptly after they are received. The Seller shall cause the
Mortgage and intervening assignments, if any, and the assignment of the Mortgage
to be recorded not later than 180 days after the Closing Date, or, in lieu of
such assignments, shall provide an Opinion of Counsel pursuant to Section 6(a)
hereof to the effect that the recordation of such assignment is not necessary to
protect the Trustee's interest in the related Mortgage Loan. Upon the request of
the Purchaser, the Seller will assist the Purchaser in effecting the assignment
referred to above.
(c) The Seller and the Purchaser acknowledge hereunder that all of the
Mortgage Loans and the related servicing will ultimately be assigned to HSBC
Bank USA, National Association, as Trustee for the Certificateholders, on the
date hereof.
Section 5. Examination of Mortgage Files.
(a) On or before the Closing Date, the Seller will have made the Mortgage
Files available to the Purchaser or its agent for examination which may be at
the offices of the Trustee (or the Custodian on its behalf) or the Seller. The
fact that the Purchaser or its agent has conducted or has failed to conduct any
partial or complete examination of the Mortgage Files shall not affect the
Purchaser's rights to demand cure, repurchase, substitution or other relief as
provided in this Agreement. In furtherance of the foregoing, the Seller shall
make the Mortgage Files available to the Purchaser or its agent from time to
time so as to permit the Purchaser to confirm the Seller's compliance with the
delivery and recordation requirements of this Agreement and the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement. In addition, upon request of the Purchaser, the Seller
agrees to provide to the Purchaser, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx and to any investors or
prospective investors in the Certificates information regarding the Mortgage
Loans and their servicing, to make the Mortgage Files available to the
Purchaser, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx and to such investors or prospective investors (which
may be at the offices of the Seller and/or the Seller's custodian) and to make
available personnel knowledgeable about the Mortgage Loans for discussions with
the Purchaser, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx and such investors or prospective investors, upon
reasonable request during regular business hours, sufficient to permit the
Purchaser, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx and such investors or potential investors to conduct
such due diligence as any such party reasonably believes is appropriate.
(b) Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, on the Closing Date
the Trustee (or the Custodian), for the benefit of the Certificateholders, will
review items of the
5
Mortgage Files as set forth on Exhibit 1 and will deliver to the Seller a
certification in the form attached as Exhibit One to the Custodial Agreement.
(c) Pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, the Trustee or the
Custodian, as its agent, will review the Mortgage Files within 180 days of the
Closing Date and will deliver to the Purchaser a final certification
substantially in the form of Exhibit Two to the Custodial Agreement. If the
Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, is unable to deliver a final
certification with respect to the items listed in Exhibit 2 due to any document
that is missing, has not been executed, is unrelated, determined on the basis of
the Mortgagor name, original principal balance and loan number, to the Mortgage
Loans identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule (a "Material Defect"), the
Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall notify the Seller of such Material
Defect. The Seller shall correct or cure any such Material Defect within 90 days
from the date of notice from the Trustee or the Custodian, as applicable, of the
Material Defect and if the Seller does not correct or cure such Material Defect
within such period and such defect materially and adversely affects the
interests of the Certificateholders in the related Mortgage Loan, the Seller
will, in accordance with the terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement,
within 90 days of the date of notice, provide the Trustee with a Substitute
Mortgage Loan (if within two years of the Closing Date) or purchase the related
Mortgage Loan at the applicable Purchase Price; provided, however, that if such
defect relates solely to the inability of the Seller to deliver the original
security instrument or intervening assignments thereof, or a certified copy
because the originals of such documents, or a certified copy, have not been
returned by the applicable jurisdiction, the Seller shall not be required to
purchase such Mortgage Loan if the Seller delivers such original documents or
certified copy promptly upon receipt, but in no event later than 360 days after
the Closing Date. The foregoing repurchase obligation shall not apply in the
event that the Seller cannot deliver such original or copy of any document
submitted for recording to the appropriate recording office in the applicable
jurisdiction because such document has not been returned by such office;
provided that the Seller shall instead deliver a recording receipt of such
recording office or, if such receipt is not available, a certificate of the
Seller confirming that such documents have been accepted for recording, and
delivery to the Trustee or the Custodian, as its agent, shall be effected by the
Seller within thirty days of its receipt of the original recorded document.
(d) At the time of any substitution, the Seller shall deliver or cause to
be delivered the Substitute Mortgage Loan, the related Mortgage File and any
other documents and payments required to be delivered in connection with a
substitution pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement. At the time of any
purchase or substitution, the Trustee shall (i) assign to the Seller and release
or cause the Custodian, as its agent, to release the documents (including, but
not limited to, the Mortgage, Mortgage Note and other contents of the Mortgage
File) in the possession of the Trustee or the Custodian relating to the Deleted
Mortgage Loan and (ii) execute and deliver such instruments of transfer or
assignment, in each case without recourse, as shall be necessary to vest in the
Seller title to such Deleted Mortgage Loan.
Section 6. Sale Treatment.
It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of
the Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser, as contemplated by this
Agreement be, and be treated as, a sale. It is, further, not the intention of
the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the
6
Mortgage Loans by the Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other
obligation of the Seller. However, in the event that, notwithstanding the intent
of the parties, the Mortgage Loans are held by a court of competent jurisdiction
to continue to be property of the Seller, then (i) this Agreement shall also be
deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of Articles 8 and 9 of the
applicable Uniform Commercial Code; (ii) the transfer of the Mortgage Loans
provided for herein shall be deemed to be a grant by the Seller to the Purchaser
of a security interest in all of the Seller's right, title and interest in and
to the Mortgage Loans and all amounts payable to the holders of the Mortgage
Loans in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the conversion,
voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments, securities or
other property, to the extent the Purchaser would otherwise be entitled to own
such Mortgage Loans and proceeds pursuant to Section 4 hereof, including all
amounts, other than investment earnings, from time to time held or invested in
any accounts created pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, whether in
the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (iii) the
possession by the Purchaser or the Trustee of Mortgage Notes and such other
items of property as constitute instruments, money, negotiable documents or
chattel paper shall be deemed to be "possession by the secured party" for
purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to Section 9-305 (or
comparable provision) of the applicable Uniform Commercial Code; and (iv)
notifications to persons holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or
confirmations from persons holding such property, shall be deemed notifications
to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from, financial
intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of the Purchaser for the
purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law. Any
assignment of the interest of the Purchaser pursuant to any provision hereof or
pursuant to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement shall also be deemed to be an
assignment of any security interest created hereby. The Seller and the Purchaser
shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be
reasonably necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a
security interest in the Mortgage Loans, such security interest would be deemed
to be a perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and
will be maintained as such throughout the term of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.

It is understood and agreed that the representations and warranties
set forth in this Section 7 will inure to the benefit of the Purchaser, its
successors and assigns, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified endorsement

in any of the Mortgage Loans delivered to the Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement, the party discovering or receiving notice of such breach shall give
prompt written notice to the others. In the case of any such breach of a
representation or warranty set forth in this Section 7, within 90 days from the

Section 7 shall accrue as to any Mortgage Loan upon (i) discovery of such breach

good standing under the laws of the State of Delaware and (ii) is qualified and
in good standing to do business in each jurisdiction where such qualification is

Section 12. Transfer of Mortgage Loans.
The Purchaser retains the right to assign the Mortgage Loans and any

the Purchaser shall remain entitled to the benefits set forth in Section 13
hereto and as provided in Section 2(a). Notwithstanding the foregoing, the sole
and exclusive right and remedy of the Trustee with respect to a breach of
representation or warranty of the Seller shall be the purchase or substitution
obligations of the Seller contained in Sections 5 and 7 hereof.
Section 13. Representations, Warranties and Agreements to Survive Delivery.
All representations, warranties and agreements contained in this
Agreement, or contained in certificates of officers of the Seller submitted
pursuant hereto, shall remain operative and in full force and effect and shall
survive delivery of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser (and by the Purchaser to
the Trustee). Subsequent to the delivery of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser,
the Seller's representations and warranties contained herein with respect to the

Substitute Mortgage Loan and not to those Mortgage Loans deleted from the

Section 14. Mandatory Delivery; Grant of Security Interest.
The sale and delivery on the Closing Date of the Mortgage Loans
described on the Mortgage Loan Schedule in accordance with the terms and
conditions of this Agreement is mandatory. It is specifically understood and
agreed that each Mortgage Loan is unique and identifiable on the date hereof and
that an award of money damages would be insufficient to compensate the Purchaser
for the losses and damages incurred by the Purchaser in the event of the
Seller's failure to deliver the Mortgage Loans on or before the Closing Date.
The Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser a lien on and a continuing security
interest in the Seller's interest in each Mortgage Loan and each document and
instrument evidencing each such Mortgage Loan to secure the performance by the
Seller of its obligation hereunder, and the Seller agrees that it holds such
Mortgage Loans in custody for the Purchaser, subject to the Purchaser's
obligation to deliver or cause to be delivered the consideration for the
Mortgage Loans pursuant to Section 2 hereof. The Seller agrees that, upon
acceptance of the Mortgage Loans by the Purchaser or its designee and delivery
of payment to the Seller, that its security interest in the Mortgage Loans shall
be released. All rights and remedies of the Purchaser under this Agreement are
distinct from, and cumulative with, any other rights or remedies under this
Agreement or afforded by law or equity and all such rights and remedies may be
exercised concurrently, independently or successively.
15
Notwithstanding the foregoing, if on the Closing Date, each of the
conditions set forth in Section 10 hereof shall have been satisfied and the
Purchaser shall not have paid or caused to be paid the Purchase Price as
described in Section 2(c) hereof, or any such condition shall not have been
waived or satisfied and the Purchaser determines not to pay or cause to be paid
the Purchase Price, the Purchaser shall immediately effect the redelivery of the
Mortgage Loans, if delivery to the Purchaser has occurred and the security
interest created by this Section 14 shall be deemed to have been released.
Section 15. Severability.
Any part, provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement
which is prohibited or which is held to be void or unenforceable shall be
ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without
invalidating the remaining provisions hereof. Any part, provision,
representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or
unenforceable or is held to be void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall,
as to such jurisdiction, be ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or
unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and any
such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction as to any Mortgage Loan
shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto
waive any provision of law which prohibits or renders void or unenforceable any
provision hereof.
Section 16. Counterparts.
This Agreement may be executed in counterparts, each of which will be
an original, but which together shall constitute one and the same agreement.
Section 17. Amendment.
This Agreement cannot be amended or modified in any manner without the
prior written consent of each party.
Section 18. GOVERNING LAW.
THIS AGREEMENT SHALL BE DEEMED TO HAVE BEEN MADE AND PERFORMED IN THE
STATE OF NEW YORK AND SHALL BE INTERPRETED IN ACCORDANCE WITH THE LAWS OF SUCH
STATE, WITHOUT REGARD TO CONFLICT OF LAWS PRINCIPLES OF SUCH STATE.
Section 19. Further Assurances.
Each of the parties agrees to execute and deliver such instruments and
take such actions as another party may, from time to time, reasonably request in
order to effectuate the purpose and to carry out the terms of this Agreement
including any amendments hereto which may be required by either Rating Agency.
Section 20. Successors and Assigns.
16
This Agreement shall bind and inure to the benefit of and be
enforceable by the Seller and the Purchaser and their permitted successors and
assigns and, to the extent specified in Section 13 hereof, Xxxxxxx Xxxxx, and
their directors, officers and controlling persons (within the meaning of federal
securities laws). The Seller acknowledges and agrees that the Purchaser may
assign its rights under this Agreement (including, without limitation, with
respect to the Seller's representations and warranties respecting the Mortgage
Loans) to the Trustee. Any Person into which the Seller may be merged or
consolidated (or any Person resulting from any merger or consolidation involving
the Seller), any Person resulting from a change in form of the Seller or any
Person succeeding to the business of the Seller, shall be considered the
"successor" of the Seller hereunder and shall be considered a party hereto
without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act or consent on
the part of any party hereto. Except as provided in the two preceding sentences,
this Agreement cannot be assigned, pledged or hypothecated by either party
hereto without the written consent of the other parties to this Agreement and
any such assignment or purported assignment shall be deemed null and void.
Section 21. The Seller.
The Seller will keep in full effect all rights as are necessary to
perform their respective obligations under this Agreement.
Section 22. Entire Agreement.
This Agreement contains the entire agreement and understanding between
the parties with respect to the subject matter hereof, and supersedes all prior
and contemporaneous agreements, understandings, inducements and conditions,
express or implied, oral or written, of any nature whatsoever with respect to
the subject matter hereof.

Nothing herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a
partnership or joint venture between the parties hereto.

XXXXXXXX X - STANDARD & POOR'S PREDATORY LENDING CATEGORIES
Standard & Poor's has categorized loans governed by anti-predatory lending laws
in the Jurisdictions listed below into three categories based upon a combination
of factors that include (a) the risk exposure associated with the assignee
liability and (b) the tests and thresholds set forth in those laws. Note that
certain loans classified by the relevant statute as Covered are included in
Standard & Poor's High Cost Loan Category because they included thresholds and
tests that are typical of what is generally considered High Cost by the
industry.
