SECTION 3.2 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES REGARDING INDIVIDUAL
---------------------------------------------------
MORTGAGE LOANS. With respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Seller represents and
--------------
warrants to the Purchaser that as of the Closing Date:
(a) The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and in
each Mortgage File is complete, true and correct;
(b) All payments required under the terms of the Mortgage Note to be
made on or prior to the Closing Date have been made; the Seller
has not advanced funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly
received any advance of funds from a party
8
other than the owner of the Mortgaged Property subject to the
Mortgage, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount
required under the Mortgage Loan; and there has been no
delinquency of thirty (30) days or more in any payment by the
Mortgagor thereunder during the last twelve (12) months. No
Mortgage Loan is subject to any pending foreclosure, bankruptcy,
insolvency, or reorganization proceeding. Nothing contained in
this Section 3.2(b) shall in any way limit any other rights of the
--------------
Purchaser as provided hereunder;
(c) There are no delinquent taxes, water charges, sewer rents,
assessments, insurance premiums, leasehold payments, including
assessments currently due and owing in future installments, or
other outstanding charges affecting the related Mortgaged
Property;
(d) The terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been
impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, except by
written instruments which are in the Mortgage File and have been
or will be recorded, if necessary to protect the interests of the
Purchaser, and which have been delivered to the Purchaser, all in
accordance with this Agreement. The substance of any such waiver,
alteration or modification has been approved by the primary
mortgage guaranty insurer, if any, and by the title insurer, to
the extent required by the related policy, and its terms are
reflected on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. No Mortgagor has been
released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an

terms of which are reflected in the Mortgage Loan Schedule, if
executed prior to the Closing Date;
(e) 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 asserted
with respect thereto;
(f) All buildings upon, or comprising part of, the Mortgaged Property
are insured by an insurer acceptable to the Agencies against loss
by fire, hazards of extended coverage and such other hazards as
are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located,
and such insurer is licensed to do business in the state where the
Mortgaged Property is located. All such insurance policies
(collectively, the "hazard insurance policy") contain a standard
mortgagee clause naming the Seller, its successors and assigns as
mortgagee and all premiums thereon have been paid. If upon
origination of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgaged Property was, or
was subsequently deemed to be, 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), which require under applicable law that a flood
insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current
guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration (or any
successor thereto) be obtained, such flood insurance policy is in
effect which policy conforms to the requirements of the Agencies.
The Mortgage obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain
9
all such insurance at Mortgagor's cost and expense and, on the
Mortgagor's failure to do so, authorizes the holder of the
Mortgage to maintain such insurance at Mortgagor's cost and
expense and to obtain reimbursement therefor from the Mortgagor.

laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan have been complied with in
all material respects;
(h) 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 Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the
Mortgaged Property, if any, subject only to (a) the lien of
current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and
payable, (b) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of
way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the
date of recording being 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 which do not adversely affect the Appraised
Value (as defined in clause (i) of such definition) of the
Mortgaged Property, and (c) other matters to which like properties

Mortgaged Property. The Seller has full right to sell and assign
the Mortgage to the Purchaser;

refund of any amounts paid or due under the Mortgage Note or
Mortgage;

Mortgage Interest Rate and Monthly Payment. 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 Seller 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 full
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
related Mortgage, including the Seller, has done, by act or
omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such
lender's title insurance policy;

Accounts and Escrow Payments, if any, since origination, have been
conducted in all respects in accordance with the terms of Mortgage
Note and in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations
and, unless otherwise required by law or FNMA/FHLMC standard, in
accordance with the proper, prudent and customary practices in the
mortgage origination and servicing business. With respect to the
Escrow Accounts and Escrow Payments, if any, all such payments are
in the possession or under the control of the Seller and there
exists no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary
arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. No escrow
deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges or payments due the

The representations and warranties set forth in Sections 3.1 and 3.2 shall
--------------------
survive the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser and shall inure to the
benefit of the Purchaser, notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified
endorsement on any Mortgage Note or Assignment of Mortgage or the examination or
failure to examine any Mortgage File. Furthermore, the absence of the Seller in
either the chain of title or endorsement shall in no way limit the Purchaser's
recourse against the Seller as provided in this Section 3.3 for a breach of one
-----------
or more of the Seller's representations and warranties made herein. Upon
discovery by either the Seller or the Purchaser of a breach of any of the
foregoing representations and warranties which materially and adversely affects
the value of one or more of the Mortgage Loans or the Purchaser's interest
therein, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to
the other. Without in any way limiting the generality of the foregoing, if the
first payment due to the Purchaser under the Mortgage Note is not received by
the Purchaser, whether from the Mortgagor directly or forwarded by the Seller if
the Mortgagor has submitted the payment to the Seller, by the last day of the
month in which it is due, the Seller shall, at the Purchaser's option and not
later than five (5) Business Days after receipt of notice of such breach from
the Purchaser, repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Repurchase Price.
The Seller shall have a period of sixty (60) days from the earlier of

within which to correct or cure such breach. If any such breach cannot be
corrected or cured within such sixty (60) day period, the Seller shall, at the
Purchaser's option and not later than sixty (60) days after its discovery or its
receipt of notice of such breach, repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the
Repurchase Price. In the event that a breach shall involve any representation
or warranty set forth in Section 3.1 and such breach cannot be cured within
-----------
sixty (60) days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice to the Seller of
such breach, all of the Mortgage Loans shall, at the Purchaser's option, be
repurchased by the Seller at the Repurchase Price. Any repurchase of a Mortgage
Loan(s) pursuant to the foregoing provisions of this Section 3.3 shall be
-----------
accomplished by wire transfer of immediately available funds on the repurchase
date to an account designated by the Purchaser.
15
At the time of repurchase, the Purchaser and the Seller shall arrange
for the reassignment of the repurchased Mortgage Loan to the Seller and the
delivery to the Seller of any documents held by the Purchaser or its custodian
relating to such Mortgage Loan. The Seller shall, simultaneously with such
reassignment, give written notice to the Purchaser that such repurchase has
taken place.
Any cause of action against the Seller relating to or arising out of
the breach of any representations and warranties made in Sections 3.1 or 3.2
-------------------

Purchaser or notice thereof by the Seller to the Purchaser, (ii) failure by the
Seller to cure such breach or repurchase such Mortgage Loan as specified above,
and (iii) demand upon the Seller by the Purchaser for compliance with the
relevant provisions of this Agreement.
SECTION 3.4 INDEMNIFICATION OF THE PURCHASER. In addition to the
--------------------------------
repurchase obligations set forth in Section 3.3, the Seller shall indemnify the
-----------
Purchaser and hold it harmless against any losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, judgments and any related costs including, without limitation,
reasonable and necessary legal fees, resulting from any claim, demand, defense
or a material omission on the part of the Seller in receiving, processing,
funding or servicing any Mortgage Loan, or from any assertion based on, grounded
upon or resulting from a breach of any of the Seller's representations and
warranties contained in this Article Ill. In addition to the obligations of the
Seller set forth in this Article 111, the Purchaser may pursue any and all
remedies otherwise available at law or in equity, including, but not limited to,
the right to seek damages. Notwithstanding the foregoing, Seller shall not be
liable for any special, consequential or punitive damages.
SECTION 3.5 PREPAYMENT AND CONVERSION PROTECTION. In the event that
------------------------------------
any of the Mortgage Loans are (i) paid in full by the related Mortgagor or (ii)
converted to a fixed-rate mortgage loan, in either case, on or prior to the
Servicing Transfer Date, or (iii) subject to a breach of the representation set
forth in Section 3.2(qq), the Seller shall, with respect to each such Mortgage

Loan, pay to the Purchaser, in addition to the unpaid principal balance plus
accrued interest at the time of such payoff or conversion, the product of (a)

Loans a full set of tapes or other computer or like records and a trial balance
as of the end of each such Reporting Cycle, which tapes or computer records and
trial balance shall include information relating to all payment and other
