(xvii) Approved Underwriting Guidelines. Seller has submitted to Buyer a copy of its current Approved Underwriting Guidelines in the form most recently approved by Buyer. (xviii) Termination Date. The Purchase Date of such Transaction, shall not be later than the Termination Date. Each Transaction Request delivered by Seller hereunder shall constitute a certification by Seller that all the conditions set forth in this Section 3(b) (other than clause (xiv) hereof) have been satisfied (both as of the date of such notice or request and as of Purchase Date or Additional Advance Date, as applicable). (c) Initiation.
26 USActive 53515649.19 (i) Seller shall deliver a Transaction Request to Buyer and to Custodian at least [*] prior to each Purchase Date and as specified in the Custodial Agreement, together with evidence of such Eligible Mortgage Loan satisfactory to Buyer in its sole discretion, prior to entering into any Transaction. Each Transaction Request shall request Purchase Price in an amount equal to at least [*]. Following receipt of such request, Buyer shall agree to enter into such requested Transaction, so long as (1) each of the conditions and other contractual requirements set forth herein are satisfied (including, without limitation, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3(a) and Section 3(b)), and (2) after giving effect to the requested Transaction the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price does not exceed the Maximum Purchase Price, in which case Buyer shall fund the Purchase Price in accordance with this Agreement. With respect to HomeSafe Selects and HomeSafe Flexes only, Seller may additionally request that Buyer purchase a Principal Advance made with respect to a Purchased Mortgage Loan by delivering a Transaction Request with respect to such Principal Advance to Buyer at least [*] prior to the requested Additional Advance Date together with evidence of such Principal Advance satisfactory to Buyer in its sole discretion. Following receipt of such request, so long as (x) each of the conditions and other contractual requirements set forth herein are satisfied (including, without limitation, the conditions precedent set forth in Section 3(b)), (y) the Repurchase Date for such Principal Advance requested to be purchased is the same as the Repurchase Date for the related Purchased Mortgage Loan and (z) after giving effect to the requested Transaction the aggregate outstanding Purchase Price does not exceed the Maximum Purchase Price, Buyer shall fund the Purchase Price in respect of such additional Principal Advance in accordance with this Agreement. Any purchase by Buyer of a Principal Advance will increase the Purchase Price and Repurchase Price of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan that is already owned by Buyer hereunder at the time of the purchase of such Principal Advance and any such Principal Advance purchased by Buyer hereunder shall constitute part of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan. Buyer’s funding the Purchase Price of the Transaction pursuant to a Transaction Request and Seller’s acceptance thereof (or direction to pay to its designee), will constitute the parties agreement to enter into such Transaction. The Purchase Price for each Eligible Mortgage Loan will be made available to Seller by Buyer transferring, the aggregate amount of such Purchase Price to any applicable Warehouse Lender, to the Approved Originator (together with the additional amount due to such Approved Originator in connection with the purchase of such Mortgage Loan received from Seller) and if none, or for amounts in excess of amounts due to the Warehouse Lender, to or at the direction of the Seller. Upon remittance of the Purchase Price to Seller and/or Warehouse Lender, Seller hereby grants, assigns, conveys and transfers all rights in and to the Purchased Mortgage Loans evidenced on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule submitted to Buyer. Buyer shall confirm the terms of each Transaction by issuing a Confirmation to Seller by [*] on each Purchase Date or Additional Advance Date, as applicable. (ii) Each Confirmation together with this Agreement, shall be conclusive evidence of the terms of the Transaction(s) covered thereby unless objected to in writing by Seller no more than [*] after the date such Confirmation was received by Seller or unless a corrected Confirmation is sent by Buyer; provided that Xxxxx’s failure to issue a Confirmation shall not affect the obligations of Seller under any Transaction. An objection sent by Seller must state specifically that such writing is an objection, must specify the
27 USActive 53515649.19 provision(s) being objected to by Seller, must set forth such provision(s) in the manner that Seller believes they should be stated, and must be received by Buyer no more than [*] after the Confirmation was received by Seller. (iii) The Repurchase Date for each Transaction shall not be later than the earlier of (a) with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan that is a HomeSafe Standard, a HomeSafe Select or a HomeSafe Flex, [*] after the initial Purchase Date for such Transaction and (b) with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, the Termination Date. (iv) Subject to the terms and conditions of this Agreement, during such period Seller may sell, repurchase and resell Purchased Mortgage Loans hereunder. (v) No later than the date and time set forth in the Custodial Agreement, Seller shall deliver to Custodian the Mortgage File pertaining to each Eligible Mortgage Loan to be purchased by Buyer. (vi) Upon Xxxxx’s receipt of the Trust Receipt (accompanied by a Custodial Mortgage Loan Schedule) in accordance with the Custodial Agreement and subject to the provisions of this Section 3, the Purchase Price will then be made available to Seller by Buyer transferring, via wire transfer, in the aggregate amount of such Purchase Price in funds immediately available. (d) [Reserved]. (e) Repurchase. (i) Seller may repurchase Purchased Mortgage Loans without penalty or premium on any Business Day other than as stated in the Pricing Letter or Seller may be required to repurchase Purchased Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Section 3(e) and Section 4. Any repurchase of Purchased Mortgage Loans may occur simultaneously with a sale of the Purchased Mortgage Loan to a third-party purchaser, including in connection with a securitization transaction. (ii) In connection with each Repurchase Date, Seller shall give written notice to Buyer of its intention to repurchase the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans at least [*] prior to the applicable Repurchase Date. Seller shall deliver to Buyer at least [*] prior to a requested Repurchase Date a Settlement Report in form and substance acceptable to Buyer in its sole discretion. The Settlement Report shall detail any Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment to be made on such date. (iii) On the Repurchase Date, subject to the conditions set forth herein, Buyer shall sell and deliver to Seller or its designee, the Purchased Mortgage Loans, and the Transactions hereunder shall terminate, upon simultaneous payment by Seller by wire to the Collection Account (or other account as designated by the Buyer in writing) of the Repurchase Price, together with all accrued and unpaid Price Differential with respect to all Purchased Mortgage Loans up to and including such Repurchase Date, whether or not such Price Differential is then due and payable, and, upon such payment, such accrued Price Differential shall be deemed paid in full as of the related Repurchase Date. Such
28 USActive 53515649.19 obligation to repurchase exists without regard to any prior or intervening liquidation or foreclosure with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan. (iv) In addition to any other rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder, Seller shall immediately repurchase any Purchased Mortgage Loan that no longer qualifies as an Eligible Mortgage Loan. (f) Post-Closing Obligations. Within [*] following the date of this Agreement (or such longer period as Buyer may agree to in its sole discretion), Seller shall deliver to Buyer opinions of Seller’s counsel, in form and substance acceptable to Buyer in its sole discretion, covering (A) corporate matters with respect to Seller, (B) enforceability of the Program Documents against Seller under New York law, (C) the grant and perfection of the security interests in the Purchased Assets and other Collateral in favor of Buyer, and (D) a bankruptcy safe harbor opinion with respect to the Transactions. Any failure of Seller to comply with the terms of this Section 3(f) on a timely basis shall, upon written notice from Buyer to Seller, constitute an immediate Event of Default for all purposes of this Agreement (notwithstanding anything to the contrary in Section 13 hereof or any grace or cure period set forth therein). SECTION 4. MARGIN AMOUNT MAINTENANCE (a) The Market Value of each Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be determined in the manner set forth in the definition of “Market Value”. With respect to any HomeSafe Standard, HomeSafe Select or HomeSafe Flex, the Market Value of each such Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be determined in accordance with clauses (I)(a), (I)(b) or (I)(c) of the definition of “Market Value”, as applicable, and in connection with any determination of Market Value pursuant to clause (I)(b) thereof, Buyer may, in its sole discretion at any time, request that the Monitoring Agent determine the Market Value for such Purchased Mortgage Loan and, upon delivery to Buyer and Seller by the Monitoring Agent of its determination of Market Value for the related Purchased Mortgage Loan, the Market Value for such Purchased Mortgage Loan shall be the market value as so determined by the Monitoring Agent in its commercially reasonable judgment, which determination shall be deemed correct absent manifest error. All costs and expenses of the Monitoring Agent shall be paid by Seller. (b) If at any time the Asset Value of any Purchased Mortgage Loan subject to a Transaction is less than the Repurchase Price for such Purchased Mortgage Loan (a “Margin Deficit”), then Buyer may by notice to Seller (as such notice is more particularly set forth below, a “Margin Call”), require Seller to transfer to Buyer or its designee cash in the amount of the Margin Deficit pursuant to Section 4(c). (c) Notice delivered pursuant to Section 4(b) may be given by any written or electronic means. Any notice given pursuant to Section 4(b) shall be met, and the related Margin Call satisfied, no later than [*] (New York City time) on the applicable Margin Deadline. (d) The failure of Buyer, on any one or more occasions, to exercise its rights hereunder, shall not change or alter the terms and conditions to which this Agreement
29 USActive 53515649.19 is subject or limit the right of Buyer to do so at a later date. Seller and Buyer each agree that a failure or delay by Buyer to exercise its rights hereunder shall not limit or waive Buyer’s rights under this Agreement or otherwise existing by law or in any way create additional rights for Seller. (e) Any cash transferred to Buyer pursuant to this Section 4 shall be applied to reduce the Repurchase Price of the applicable Purchased Mortgage Loans under this Agreement. (f) If the Asset Value of the Purchased Mortgage Loan is deemed to be [*], in lieu of paying the Margin Deficit, Seller shall repurchase such Purchased Mortgage Loan in accordance with Section 3(e) no later than the related Margin Deadline. SECTION 5. COLLECTIONS; INCOME PAYMENTS (a) Where a particular Transaction’s term extends over an Income payment date with respect to one or more Purchased Mortgage Loans subject to such Transaction, all such Income shall be the property of Buyer. Seller shall or shall cause the Master Servicer to deposit all Income within [*] following receipt (including, without limitation, receipt by any Subservicer) thereof (including, without limitation, all such Income that is required to be deposited therein pursuant to the applicable provisions of the Account Agreement) into a deposit account (the title of which shall indicate that the funds therein are being held in trust for Buyer) (the “Collection Account”) with the Bank and which is subject to the Account Agreement; provided that, if Seller or any Affiliate of Seller receives any direct payment of Income or if any Income is forwarded to Seller or any Affiliate of Seller, Seller or its Affiliate shall deposit all such Income into the Collection Account within twenty-four hours of receipt. Neither Seller nor Master Servicer may give any instruction with respect to the Collection Account. On the Payment Date, the Master Servicer shall prepare a detailed payment report in form and substance acceptable to Buyer, which sets forth a reconciliation of all Income received through but not including such Payment Date (excluding Income detailed in any such report provided in connection with a prior Payment Date), and the amount of Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment due on the Purchased Mortgage Loans and, based on such report as approved by Buyer, Buyer shall withdraw any funds on deposit in the Collection Account and remit such funds to be applied as follows: (1) any amounts due to Wilmington Savings Fund Society, FSB, as Owner Trustee of the Buyer; (2) any amounts due to Buyer on account of due and unpaid Price Differential in accordance with Section 5(b); (3) any amounts due to Buyer on account of a Margin Deficit in accordance with Section 4; (4) all amounts offset and applied by Buyer pursuant to Section 5(d); (5) any other Expenses, fees, including Facility Fees, or amounts due Buyer under the Repurchase Agreement;
30 USActive 53515649.19 (6) any amounts due and owing under Section 15; (7) to Bond Facility Buyer, any amounts then due and payable to Bond Facility Buyer under the Bond Facility pursuant to priorities (1) through (6) of Section 5(a) of the Bond Repurchase Agreement until such amounts then due and payable thereunder have been paid in full; and (8) the remainder of funds to Seller. Notwithstanding the foregoing and without limiting any remedies of Buyer provided herein, if there exists any shortfall in the payment of items (1) – (7) on any Payment Date, Seller shall pay to Buyer on such Payment Date an amount equal to any such shortfall in accordance with Section 9. (b) Notwithstanding that Xxxxx and Seller intend that the Transactions hereunder be sales to Buyer of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Seller shall pay to Buyer the accreted value of the Price Differential (less any amount of such Price Differential previously paid by Seller to Buyer) of each Transaction through but not including each Payment Date (each such payment, a “Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment”) on each Payment Date. If Seller fails to make all or part of the Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment by [*], New York City time, on the Payment Date, Seller shall be obligated to pay to Buyer (in addition to, and together with, the Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment) interest on the unpaid amount of the Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment at a rate per annum equal to the Post-Default Rate (the “Late Payment Fee”) until the overdue Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment is received in full by Buyer. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, if, on or prior to the determination of any LIBO Rate: (1) Buyer reasonably determines that quotations of interest rates for the relevant deposits referred to in the definition of “LIBO Rate” are not being provided in the relevant amounts or for the relevant maturities for purposes of determining rates of interest for Transactions hereunder as provided herein; or (2) it becomes unlawful for Buyer to maintain Transactions with a Pricing Rate based on the LIBO Rate; then Buyer shall give Seller prompt notice thereof. So long as such condition remains in effect, Seller shall, at its option, either repay the aggregate Repurchase Price of all Purchased Mortgage Loans and all other amounts due under this Agreement in full within [*] (including, without limitation, the Yield Maintenance Fee), or from and after the date of such determination, pay a Pricing Rate based on the Alternate Rate. (c) Seller shall hold or cause to be held for the benefit of, and in trust for, Buyer all income, including without limitation all Income received by or on behalf of Seller with respect to such Purchased Mortgage Loans. All such Income shall be held in trust for Buyer, shall constitute the property of Buyer and shall not be commingled with other property of Seller, any affiliate of Seller or Master Servicer except as expressly permitted above in this Section 5. Funds deposited in the Collection Account during any month shall be held therein, in trust for Buyer.
31 USActive 53515649.19 (d) Buyer shall offset against the Repurchase Price of each such Transaction all Income and Periodic Advance Repurchase Payments actually received by Buyer for such Transaction pursuant to Sections 5(a) and 5(b) as of the applicable Repurchase Date, respectively, excluding any Late Payment Fees paid pursuant to Section 5(b); it being understood that the Late Payment Fees are properties of Buyer that are not subject to offset against the Repurchase Price. (e) Seller shall not change the identity or location of the Collection Account. Seller shall from time to time, at its own cost and expense, execute such directions to Buyer, and other papers, documents or instruments as may be reasonably requested by Buyer with respect to the Collection Account. (f) Seller shall promptly notify Buyer of each deposit in the Collection Account, and each withdrawal from the Collection Account, made by it with respect to Mortgage Loans owned by Buyer and serviced by Seller. Seller shall also promptly deliver to Buyer photocopies of all periodic bank statements and other records relating to the Collection Account. (g) The amount required to be paid or remitted by Seller to Buyer, including any Periodic Advance Repurchase Payment, not made when due shall bear interest from the due date until the remittance, transfer or payment is made, payable by Seller, at the lesser of the Post- Default Rate or the maximum rate of interest permitted by law. If there is no maximum rate of interest specified by applicable law, interest on such sums shall accrue at the Post-Default Rate. SECTION 6. REQUIREMENT OF LAW (a) If any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and bylaws or other organizational or governing documents) including those regarding capital adequacy, or any change in the interpretation or application of any Requirement of Law thereof or compliance by Buyer with any request or directive (whether or not having the force of law) from any central bank or other Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof: (i) shall subject Buyer to any Non-Excluded Taxes (other than Taxes imposed on payments under this Agreement or any other Program Documents) on its loans, loan principal, letters of credit, commitments, or other obligations, or its deposits, reserves, other liabilities or capital attributable thereto; (ii) shall impose, modify or hold applicable any reserve, special deposit, compulsory loan or similar requirement against assets held by, deposits or other liabilities in or for the account of, advances, or other extensions of credit by, or any other acquisition of funds by, any office of Buyer; (iii) shall impose on Buyer any other condition; and the result of any of the foregoing is to increase the cost to Buyer, by an amount which Buyer deems to be material, of entering, continuing or maintaining any Transaction or to reduce any amount due or owing hereunder in respect thereof, or shall have the effect of reducing Buyer’s rate of return then, in any such case, Seller shall promptly pay Buyer such additional amount or
32 USActive 53515649.19 amounts as calculated by Buyer in good faith as will compensate Buyer for such increased cost or reduced amount receivable. (b) If Buyer shall have determined that the adoption of or any change in any Requirement of Law (other than with respect to any amendment made to Buyer’s certificate of incorporation and by-laws or other organizational or governing documents) regarding capital adequacy or in the interpretation or application thereof or compliance by Buyer or any corporation controlling Buyer with any request or directive regarding capital adequacy (whether or not having the force of law) from any Governmental Authority made subsequent to the date hereof shall have the effect of reducing the rate of return on Buyer’s or such corporation’s capital as a consequence of its obligations hereunder to a level below that which Buyer or such corporation could have achieved but for such adoption, change or compliance (taking into consideration Buyer’s or such corporation’s policies with respect to capital adequacy) by an amount deemed by Buyer to be material, then from time to time, Seller shall promptly pay to Buyer such additional amount or amounts as will compensate Buyer for such reduction. (c) If Buyer becomes entitled to claim any additional amounts pursuant to this Section 6, it shall promptly notify Seller of the event by reason of which it has become so entitled. A certificate as to any additional amounts payable pursuant to this Section submitted by Buyer to Seller shall be conclusive in the absence of manifest error. SECTION 7. TAXES. (a) Any and all payments by or on behalf of Seller under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Documents to which Seller is a party shall be made free and clear of, and without deduction or withholding for or on account of, any and all present or future taxes, levies, imposts, deductions, charges or withholdings, and all liabilities (including penalties, interest and additions to tax) with respect thereto, whether now or hereafter imposed, levied, collected, withheld or assessed by any taxation authority or other Governmental Authority (collectively, “Taxes”), unless required by law. If any Person shall be required under any applicable Requirement of Law to deduct or withhold any Taxes from or in respect of any sum payable under or in respect of this Agreement or any of the other Program Documents to Buyer (including, for purposes of Section 6 and this Section 7, any agent, assignee, successor or participant), (i) Seller shall make all such deductions and withholdings in respect of Taxes, (ii) Seller shall pay the full amount deducted or withheld in respect of Taxes to the relevant taxation authority or other Governmental Authority in accordance with any Requirement of Law, and (iii) the sum payable by Seller shall be increased as may be necessary so that after Seller has made all required deductions and withholdings (including deductions and withholdings applicable to additional amounts payable under this Section 7) such Buyer receives an amount equal to the sum it would have received had no such deductions or withholdings been made in respect of Non-Excluded Taxes. For purposes of this Agreement the term “Non-Excluded Taxes” are Taxes other than, in the case of Buyer, (i) Taxes that are imposed on or measured by its overall net income (however denominated), franchise Taxes, and branch profits Taxes, in each case, as a result of Buyer being organized under the laws of, or having its principal office, or its applicable lending office, located in, the jurisdiction imposing such Tax, or any political subdivision thereof, unless such Taxes are imposed as a result of Xxxxx having executed, delivered or performed its obligations or received payments under, or enforced, this Agreement or any of the other Program Documents (in which
33 USActive 53515649.19 case such Taxes will be treated as Non-Excluded Taxes), and (ii) Taxes imposed as a result of its failure to comply with Section 7(e) or Section 7(f), and (iii) Taxes imposed as a result of its failure to comply with FATCA. (b) In addition, Seller hereby agrees to pay or, at the Buyer’s option, timely reimburse it for payment of, any present or future stamp, recording, documentary, excise, filing, intangible, property or value-added taxes, or similar taxes, charges or levies that arise from any payment made under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Document or from the execution, delivery, enforcement or registration of, any performance, receipt or perfection of a security interest under, or otherwise with respect to, this Agreement or any other Program Document (collectively, “Other Taxes”). (c) Seller hereby agrees to indemnify Buyer (including its Beneficial Tax Owners) for, and to hold it harmless against, the full amount of Non-Excluded Taxes and Other Taxes, and the full amount of Taxes of any kind imposed by any jurisdiction on amounts payable under this Section 7 imposed on or paid by such Buyer (or any Beneficial Tax Owners thereof) and any liability (including penalties, additions to tax, interest and expenses) arising therefrom or with respect thereto. A certificate as to the amount of such Taxes or liabilities delivered to Seller by Buyer shall be conclusive absent manifest error. The indemnity by Seller provided for in this Section 7(c) shall apply and be made whether or not the Non-Excluded Taxes, Other Taxes or any other liabilities for which indemnification hereunder is sought have been correctly or legally asserted. Any amounts payable by Seller under the indemnity set forth in this Section 7(c) shall be paid within [*] from the date on which Buyer makes written demand therefor. (d) Within [*] after the date of any payment of Taxes, Seller (or any Person making such payment on behalf of Seller) shall furnish to Buyer for its own account a certified copy of the original official receipt evidencing payment thereof. (e) For purposes of this Section 7(e), the terms “United States” and “United States person” shall have the meanings specified in Section 7701 of the Code. Each Buyer (including for avoidance of doubt any assignee, successor or participant) that either (i) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia or (ii) whose name does not include “Incorporated,” “Inc.,” “Corporation,” “Corp.,” “P.C.,” “insurance company,” or “assurance company” (a “Non-Exempt Buyer”) shall deliver or cause to be delivered to Seller (or to the participating Buyer, in the case of a participant) the following properly completed and duly executed documents: (i) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is not a United States person or is a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes owned by a person that is not a United States person, a complete and executed (x) U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN with Part II completed or U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E with Part III completed, as applicable, in which such Buyer claims the benefits of a tax treaty with the United States providing for a zero or reduced rate of withholding (or any successor forms thereto), including all appropriate attachments or (y) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8ECI (or any successor forms thereto); or
34 USActive 53515649.19 (ii) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is an individual, (x) for non-United States persons, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN (or any successor forms thereto) and a certificate substantially in the form of Exhibit F (a “Section 7 Certificate”) or (y) for United States persons, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto); or (iii) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia and that is not a disregarded entity for U.S. federal income tax purposes owned by a person that is not a United States person, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-9 (or any successor forms thereto); or (iv) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (x) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia and (y) is treated as a corporation for U.S. federal income tax purposes, a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8BEN-E (or any successor forms thereto) and a Section 7 Certificate; or (v) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (A) is treated as a partnership or other non-corporate entity, and (B) is not organized under the laws of the United States, any State thereof, or the District of Columbia, (x)(i) a complete and executed U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor forms thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 7 Certificate, and (y) in the case of a non- withholding foreign partnership or trust, without duplication, with respect to each of its beneficial owners and the beneficial owners of such beneficial owners looking through chains of owners to individuals or entities that are treated as corporations for U.S. federal income tax purposes (all such owners, “Beneficial Tax Owners”), the documents that would be provided by each such Beneficial Tax Owner if such Beneficial Tax Owner were Buyer; or (vi) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that is disregarded for U.S. federal income tax purposes, the document that would be required by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vii) and/or this clause (vi) of this Section 7(e) with respect to its Beneficial Tax Owner if such Beneficial Tax Owner were Buyer; or (vii) in the case of a Non-Exempt Buyer that (A) is not a United States person and (B) is acting in the capacity of an “intermediary” (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), (x)(i) a U.S. Internal Revenue Service Form W-8IMY (or any successor form thereto) (including all required documents and attachments) and (ii) a Section 7 Certificate, and (y) if the intermediary is a “non-qualified intermediary” (as defined in U.S. Treasury Regulations), from each person upon whose behalf the “non-qualified intermediary” is acting the documents that would be required by clause (i), (ii), (iii), (iv), (v), (vi), and/or this clause (vii) with respect to each such person if each such person were Buyer. If a Buyer provides a form pursuant to Section 7(e)(i)(x) and the form provided by the Buyer at the time such Buyer first becomes a party to this Agreement or, with respect to a grant of a participation, the effective date thereof, indicates a United States interest withholding tax rate
35 USActive 53515649.19 under the tax treaty in excess of zero, withholding tax at such rate shall be treated as Taxes other than “Non-Excluded Taxes” (“Excluded Taxes”) and shall not qualify as Non-Excluded Taxes unless and until such Buyer provides the appropriate form certifying that a lesser rate applies, whereupon withholding tax at such lesser rate shall be considered Excluded Taxes solely for the periods governed by such form. If, however, on the date a Person becomes an assignee, successor or participant to this Agreement, the Buyer transferor was entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under this Section 7, then the Buyer assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts to the extent that the Buyer transferor was entitled to such indemnification or additional amounts for Non-Excluded Taxes, and the Buyer assignee, successor or participant shall be entitled to additional indemnification or additional amounts for any other or additional Non-Excluded Taxes. (f) If a payment made to a Buyer under or in respect of this Agreement or any other Program Document would be subject to U.S. federal withholding Tax imposed by FATCA if such Buyer were to fail to comply with the applicable reporting requirements of FATCA (including those contained in Section 1471(b) or 1472(b) of the Code or any intergovernmental agreement enacted to implement Sections 1471 through 1474 of the Code, as applicable), such Buyer shall deliver to Seller (or the participating Buyer, in the case of a participant) at the time or times prescribed by law and at such time or times reasonably requested by Seller (or such participating Buyer) such documentation prescribed by applicable law and such additional documentation reasonably requested by Seller (or such participating Buyer) as may be necessary for Seller (or such participating Buyer) to comply with their obligations under FATCA and to determine that such Buyer has complied with such Buyer’s obligations under FATCA or to determine the amount to deduct and withhold from such payment. (g) For any period with respect to which a Buyer has failed to provide Seller (or the participating Buyer, in the case of a participant) with the appropriate form, certificate or other document described in Section 7(e) (other than if such failure is due to a change in any Requirement of Law, or in the interpretation or application thereof, occurring after the date on which a form, certificate or other document originally was required to be provided), such Buyer shall not be entitled to indemnification or additional amounts under subsection (a) or (c) of this Section 7 with respect to Non-Excluded Taxes imposed by the United States by reason of such failure; provided, however, that should a Buyer become subject to Non-Excluded Taxes because of its failure to deliver a form, certificate or other document required hereunder, Seller shall take such steps as such Buyer shall reasonably request, to assist such Buyer in recovering such Non- Excluded Taxes. (h) Without prejudice to the survival of any other agreement of Seller, the agreements and obligations of Seller contained in this Section 7 shall survive the termination of this Agreement and the other Program Documents. Nothing contained in Section 6 or this Section 7 shall require Buyer to complete, execute or make available any of its Tax returns or any other information that it deems to be confidential or proprietary, or whose completion, execution or submission would, in Xxxxx’s judgment, materially prejudice Buyer’s legal or commercial position. (i) Notwithstanding the foregoing and subject to Section 7(h) above, upon any determination and notice to Seller by Buyer that Xxxxx has become entitled to claim any additional
36 USActive 53515649.19 amounts pursuant to Section 7(a) or 7(b) above, Seller may, upon written notice to Buyer, elect to terminate the Transactions in accordance with Section 3 hereof as of the immediately succeeding Payment Date, and, in lieu of paying any such amounts to Buyer, pay Buyer any amounts otherwise then due and owing under the terms of this Agreement, including, without limitation, the Yield Maintenance Fee.

Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Buyer, without demand of performance or other demand, presentment, protest, advertisement or notice of any kind (except any notice required by law referred to below) to or upon Seller or any other Person (all and each of which demands, defenses, advertisements and notices are hereby waived), may in such circumstances transfer all or any part of the Related Purchased Mortgage Loans into Buyer’s name or the name of its nominee or nominees, and/or forthwith collect, receive, appropriate and realize upon the Related Purchased Mortgage Loans, or any part thereof, and/or may forthwith sell, lease, assign, give option or options to purchase, or otherwise dispose of and deliver the Related Purchased Mortgage Loans or any part thereof (or contract to do any of the foregoing), in one or more parcels at public or private sale or sales, at any exchange, broker’s board or office of Buyer or elsewhere upon such terms and conditions (including by lease or by deferred payment arrangement) as it may deem advisable and at such prices as it may deem best, for cash or on credit or for future delivery without assumption of any credit risk and/or may take such other actions as may be available under applicable law. Buyer shall have the right upon any such public sale or sales, and, to the extent permitted by law, upon any such private sale or sales, auction or closed tender, to purchase the whole or any part of the Related Purchased Mortgage Loans so sold, free of any right or equity of redemption in Seller, which right or equity is hereby waived or released.

(c) Seller recognizes that the market for the Purchased Mortgage Loans may not be liquid and as a result it may not be possible for Buyer to sell all of the Purchased Mortgage Loans on a particular Business Day, or in a transaction with the same purchaser, or in the same manner. In view of the nature of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Xxxxxx agrees that liquidation of any Purchased Mortgage Loan may be conducted in a private sale. Seller acknowledges and agrees that any such private sale may result in prices and other terms less favorable to Buyer than if such sale were a public sale, and notwithstanding such circumstances, agrees that any such private sale shall be deemed to have been made in a commercially reasonable manner. Seller further agrees that it would not be commercially unreasonable for Buyer to dispose of any Purchased Mortgage Loan by using internet sites that provide for the auction or sale of assets similar to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, or that have the reasonable capability of doing so, or that match buyers and sellers of assets.

Interest on any sum payable by Seller to Buyer under this Section 14(e) shall be at a rate equal to the Post-Default Rate. (f) Without limiting the rights of Buyer hereto to pursue all other legal and equitable rights available to Buyer for Seller’s failure to perform its obligations under this Agreement, Seller acknowledges and agrees that the remedy at law for any failure to perform obligations hereunder would be inadequate and Buyer shall be entitled to specific performance, injunctive relief, or other equitable remedies in the event of any such failure. The availability of these remedies shall not prohibit Buyer from pursuing any other remedies for such breach, including the recovery of monetary damages. SECTION 15. INDEMNIFICATION AND EXPENSES; RECOURSE (a) Seller agrees to hold Buyer, its Affiliates and their respective officers, directors, employees, agents, trustees and advisors (each an “Indemnified Party”) harmless from and indemnify and defend, any Indemnified Party against all claims, liabilities, losses, damages, judgments, costs and expenses of any kind which may be imposed on, incurred by or asserted against such Indemnified Party (collectively, “Costs”), relating to or arising out of this Agreement (including, without limitation, as a result of a breach of any representation or warranty contained on Schedule 1), any other Program Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, or any amendment, supplement or modification of, or any waiver or consent under or in respect of, this Agreement, any other Program Document or any transaction contemplated hereby or thereby, or the servicing or subservicing, as applicable, of any Purchased Mortgage Loans or the actions of Subservicer in connection therewith.

Seller further agrees to pay all of Buyer’s reasonable costs and expenses including, without limitation, reasonable attorneys’ fees and disbursements, incurred by Buyer in connection with the enforcement of any of the foregoing. (c) The obligations of Seller from time to time to pay the Repurchase Price, the Price Differential, the Obligations and all other amounts due under this Agreement shall be full recourse obligations of Seller. SECTION 16. SERVICING (a) As a condition of purchasing a Mortgage Loan, Buyer may require the Master Servicer to service such Mortgage Loan as agent for Buyer for a term of [*] (the “Servicing Term”). If the Servicing Term expires with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan for any reason other than such Purchased Mortgage Loan no longer being subject to a Transaction hereunder, then upon written agreement of Buyer, Master Servicer shall continue to service the Purchased Mortgage Loan for an additional [*]. Each [*] extension period shall automatically expire without notice unless Xxxxx agrees in writing to any additional [*] extension period(s). Master Servicer shall service the Purchased Mortgage Loans in accordance with prudent mortgage loan servicing standards and procedures generally accepted in the mortgage banking industry and in accordance with all applicable requirements of the Agencies, Requirement of Law, Applicable Requirements, and the provisions of any applicable servicing agreement. (b) If any Mortgage Loan that is proposed to be sold on a Purchase Date is serviced by a servicer other than the Master Servicer (a “Servicer”), or if the servicing of any Mortgage Loan is to be transferred to a Servicer, Seller shall provide a copy of the related Servicing Agreement and a Servicer Notice executed by such Servicer to Buyer prior to such Purchase Date or servicing transfer date, as applicable. Each such Servicing Agreement shall be in form and substance acceptable to Buyer. In addition, Seller shall have obtained the prior written consent of Buyer for such Servicer to subservice the Mortgage Loans, which consent may be withheld in Buyer’s sole discretion. In no event shall Seller’s use of a Servicer relieve Seller or Master Servicer of its obligations hereunder, and Seller and Master Servicer shall remain liable under this Agreement as if Seller or Master Servicer were servicing such Mortgage Loans directly. (c) Seller shall transfer actual servicing of each Purchased Mortgage Loan, together with all of the related Records in its possession, to Buyer’s designee and designate Buyer’s designee as the servicer in the MERS System upon the earliest of (i) the occurrence of a Default or Event of Default hereunder, (ii) the termination of Seller as interim servicer by Buyer pursuant to this Agreement, (iii) the expiration (and non-renewal) of the Servicing Term, or (iv) transfer of servicing to any entity approved by Xxxxx and the assumption thereof by such entity.

58 USActive 53515649.19 have the right to terminate Seller and/or Master Servicer as interim servicer of any of the Purchased Mortgage Loans, which right shall be exercisable at any time in Buyer’s sole discretion, upon written notice. Seller’s and/or Master Servicer’s transfer of the Records and servicing under this Section shall be in accordance with customary standards in the industry and such transfer shall include the transfer of the gross amount of all escrows held for the related mortgagors (without reduction for unreimbursed advances or “negative escrows”). (d) During the period Seller and/or Master Servicer is servicing the Purchased Mortgage Loans as agent for Buyer, Seller and/or Master Servicer agrees that Buyer is the owner of the related Credit Files and Records and Seller and/or Master Servicer shall at all times maintain and safeguard and cause the Servicer to maintain and safeguard the Credit File and Records for the Purchased Mortgage Loans (including photocopies or images of the documents delivered to Buyer), and accurate and complete records of its servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loan; Seller’s possession of the Credit Files and Records being for the sole purpose of servicing such Purchased Mortgage Loan and such retention and possession by Seller and/or Master Servicer being in a custodial capacity only. (e) At Buyer’s request, Seller and/or Master Servicer shall promptly deliver to Buyer reports regarding the status of any Purchased Mortgage Loan being serviced by Seller, which reports shall include, but shall not be limited to, a description of any default thereunder for more than [*] or such other circumstances that could cause a material adverse effect on such Purchased Mortgage Loan, Buyer’s or its designee’s title to such Purchased Mortgage Loan or the collateral securing such Purchased Mortgage Loan; Seller and/or Master Servicer may be required to deliver such reports until the repurchase of the Purchased Mortgage Loan by Seller.

If Buyer elects to make such an appointment due to a Default or Event of Default, Seller shall be assessed all costs and expenses incurred by Buyer associated with transferring the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans to the Successor Servicer. In the event of such an appointment, Seller and/or Master Servicer shall perform all acts and take all action so that any part of the Credit File and related Records held by Seller, together with all funds in the Collection Account and other receipts relating to such Purchased Mortgage Loan, are promptly delivered to Successor Servicer, and shall otherwise reasonably cooperate with Buyer in effectuating such transfer. Seller and/or Master Servicer shall have no claim for lost servicing income, lost profits or other damages if Xxxxx appoints a Successor Servicer hereunder and the servicing fee is reduced or eliminated.
59 USActive 53515649.19 (h) For the avoidance of doubt, neither Seller nor Master Servicer retains any economic rights to the servicing of the Purchased Mortgage Loans provided that Seller and/or Master Servicer shall continue to service the Purchased Mortgage Loans hereunder as part of its Obligations hereunder. As such, Seller and/or Master Servicer expressly acknowledges that the Purchased Mortgage Loans are sold to Buyer on a “servicing released” basis. SECTION 17. DUE DILIGENCE (a) Seller acknowledges that Buyer has the right to perform continuing due diligence reviews with respect to the Purchased Mortgage Loans, Seller and other parties which may be involved in or related to Transactions (collectively, “Third Party Transaction Parties”), from time to time, for purposes of verifying compliance with the representations, warranties and specifications made hereunder, at the request of Buyer hereunder or otherwise, and Seller agrees that upon reasonable prior notice to Seller, unless an Event of Default shall have occurred, in which case no notice is required, Buyer or its authorized representatives will be permitted during normal business hours to examine, inspect, and make copies and extracts of, the Mortgage Files and any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession or under the control of Seller. Seller will use best efforts to cause Third Party Transaction Parties to cooperate with any due diligence requests of Buyer. Seller shall also make available to Buyer a knowledgeable financial or accounting officer for the purpose of answering questions respecting the Mortgage Files and the Mortgage Loans. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, Seller acknowledges that Buyer may purchase Mortgage Loans from Seller based solely upon the information provided by Seller to Buyer in the Mortgage Loan Schedule and the representations, warranties and covenants contained herein, and that Buyer, at its option, has the right at any time to conduct a partial or complete due diligence review on some or all of the Mortgage Loans purchased in a Transaction, including, without limitation, ordering broker’s price opinions, new credit reports and new appraisals on the related Mortgaged Properties and otherwise re-generating the information used to originate such Mortgage Loan. Buyer may underwrite such Mortgage Loans itself or engage a mutually agreed upon third party underwriter to perform such underwriting. Xxxxxx agrees to cooperate with Xxxxx and any third party underwriter in connection with such underwriting, including, but not limited to, providing Buyer and any third party underwriter with access to any and all documents, records, agreements, instruments or information relating to such Mortgage Loans in the possession, or under the control, of Seller. Seller agrees that it shall pay all out-of-pocket costs and expenses incurred by Buyer in connection with Xxxxx’s activities pursuant to this Section 17. SECTION 18. ASSIGNABILITY The rights and obligations of the parties under this Agreement and under any Transaction shall not be assigned by Seller without the prior written consent of Buyer. Buyer may from time to time, without the consent of Seller, assign all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement and the Program Documents to any party, including, without limitation, any affiliate of Buyer, pursuant to an executed assignment and acceptance by Buyer and assignee (“Assignment and Acceptance”), specifying the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned. Upon such assignment, (a) such assignee shall be a party hereto and to each Program Document to the extent of the percentage or portion set forth in the Assignment and Acceptance, and shall succeed to the applicable rights and obligations of Buyer hereunder, and
60 USActive 53515649.19 (b) Buyer shall, to the extent that such rights and obligations have been so assigned by it be released from its obligations hereunder and under the Program Documents. Subject to the foregoing, this Agreement and any Transactions shall be binding upon and shall inure to the benefit of the parties and their respective successors and assigns. Nothing in this Agreement express or implied, shall give to any Person, other than the parties to this Agreement and their successors hereunder, any benefit of any legal or equitable right, power, remedy or claim under this Agreement. Seller shall continue to take directions solely from Buyer unless otherwise notified by Xxxxx in writing. Buyer may distribute to any prospective assignee any document or other information delivered to Buyer by Seller. Buyer may sell participations to one or more Persons in or to all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement; provided, however, that (i) Buyer shall remain solely responsible to the other parties hereto for the performance of such obligations; and (ii) Seller shall continue to deal solely and directly with Buyer in connection with Buyer’s rights and obligations under this Agreement and the other Program Documents. Buyer may, in connection with any assignment or participation or proposed assignment or participation pursuant to this Section 18, disclose to the assignee or participant or proposed assignee or participant, as the case may be, any information relating to Seller or any of its Subsidiaries or to any aspect of the Transactions that has been furnished to Buyer by or on behalf of Seller or any of its Subsidiaries; provided that such assignee or participant agrees to hold such information subject to the confidentiality provisions of this Agreement. In the event that Buyer assigns all or a portion of its rights and obligations under this Agreement, the parties hereto agree to negotiate in good faith an amendment to this Agreement to add agency provisions similar to those included in agreements for similar syndicated repurchase facilities. SECTION 19. TRANSFER AND MAINTENANCE OF REGISTER. (a) Subject to acceptance and recording thereof pursuant to Section 19(b), from and after the effective date specified in each Assignment and Acceptance the assignee thereunder shall be a party hereto and, to the extent of the interest assigned by such Assignment and Acceptance, have the rights and obligations of Buyer under this Agreement. Any assignment or transfer by Buyer of rights or obligations under this Agreement that does not comply with this Section 19 shall be treated for purposes of this Agreement as a sale by such Buyer of a participation in such rights and obligations in accordance with Section 19(b) hereof. (b) Xxxxx, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Seller, shall maintain a register (the “Register”) on which it will record each Assignment and Acceptance. The Register shall include the names and addresses of Buyer (including all assignees and successors) and the percentage or portion of such rights and obligations assigned. Failure to make any such recordation, or any error in such recordation shall not affect Seller’s obligations in respect of such rights. The entries in the Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and Xxxxx and Seller shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Register pursuant to the terms hereof as an assignee for all purposes of this Agreement. The Register shall be available for inspection by Seller and any Buyer, at any reasonable time and from time to time upon reasonable prior notice.
61 USActive 53515649.19 (c) Each Buyer that sells a participation shall, acting solely for this purpose as an agent of Seller, maintain a register (the “Participant Register”) on which it will include the name and address of each participant and the percentage or portion of rights and obligations so participated. The entries in the Participant Register shall be conclusive absent manifest error, and such Buyer shall treat each Person whose name is recorded in the Participant Register as the owner of such participation for all purposes of this Agreement. No Buyer shall have any obligation to disclose all or any portion of the Participant Register to any Person except to the extent that such disclosure is necessary to establish that such participation or the applicable Transaction is in registered form under U.S. Treasury regulations section 5f.103-1(c). SECTION 20. HYPOTHECATION OR PLEDGE OF PURCHASED MORTGAGE LOANS Title to all Purchased Mortgage Loans and Related Purchased Mortgage Loans shall pass to Buyer or its designee and Buyer or its designee shall have free and unrestricted use of all Purchased Mortgage Loans. Nothing in this Agreement shall preclude Buyer from engaging in repurchase transactions with the Purchased Mortgage Loans or otherwise pledging, repledging, transferring, hypothecating, or rehypothecating the Purchased Mortgage Loans to any Person, including without limitation, the Federal Home Loan Bank. No such transaction shall relieve Buyer of its obligations to transfer Purchased Mortgage Loans back to Seller pursuant to this Agreement, or of Buyer’s obligation to credit or pay Income to, or apply Income to the obligations of, Seller pursuant to this Agreement. Nothing contained in this Agreement shall obligate Buyer to segregate any Purchased Mortgage Loans delivered to Buyer by Seller. SECTION 21. TAX TREATMENT Notwithstanding anything to the contrary in this Agreement or any other Program Documents, each party to this Agreement acknowledges that it is its intent for U.S. federal, state and local income and franchise tax purposes to treat each Transaction as indebtedness of Seller that is secured by the Purchased Mortgage Loans and the Purchased Mortgage Loans as owned by Seller in the absence of a Default by Seller. All parties to this Agreement agree to such treatment and agree to take no action inconsistent with this treatment, unless required by any Requirement of Law (in which case such party shall promptly notify the other party of such Requirement of Law). SECTION 22. SET-OFF In addition to any rights and remedies of Buyer hereunder and by law, Buyer shall have the right, without prior notice to Seller, any such notice being expressly waived by each of Seller to the extent permitted by applicable law to set-off and appropriate and apply against any Obligation from Seller to Buyer or any of its Affiliates (including without limitation Obligations under the Bond Repurchase Agreement) any and all deposits (general or special, time or demand, provisional or final), in any currency, and any other obligation (including to return excess margin), credits, indebtedness or claims or cash, in any currency, in each case whether direct or indirect, absolute or contingent, matured or unmatured, at any time held or owing by or due from Buyer or any Affiliate thereof to or for the credit or the account of Seller. Xxxxx agrees promptly to notify
62 USActive 53515649.19 Seller after any such set-off and application made by Buyer; provided that the failure to give such notice shall not affect the validity of such set-off and application. Buyer shall at any time have the right, in each case until such time as Buyer determines otherwise, to retain, to suspend payment or performance of, or to decline to remit, any amount or property that Buyer would otherwise be obligated to pay, remit or deliver to Seller hereunder if an Event of Default or Default has occurred. SECTION 23. TERMINABILITY Each representation and warranty made or deemed to be made by entering into a Transaction, herein or pursuant hereto shall survive the making of such representation and warranty, and Buyer shall not be deemed to have waived any Default that may arise because any such representation or warranty shall have proved to be false or misleading, notwithstanding that Buyer may have had notice or knowledge or reason to believe that such representation or warranty was false or misleading at the time the Transaction was made. Notwithstanding any such termination or the occurrence of an Event of Default, all of the representations and warranties and covenants hereunder shall continue and survive. The obligations of Seller under Section 15 hereof shall survive the termination of this Agreement. SECTION 24. NOTICES AND OTHER COMMUNICATIONS Except as otherwise expressly permitted by this Agreement, all notices, requests and other communications provided for herein (including without limitation any modifications of, or waivers, requests or consents under, this Agreement) shall be given or made in writing (including without limitation by electronic transmission) delivered to the intended recipient at the “Address for Notices” specified below its name on the signature pages hereof or thereof); and with respect to Buyer, or, as to any party, at such other address as shall be designated by such party in a written notice to each other party. In all cases, to the extent that the related individual set forth in the respective “Attention” line is no longer employed by the respective Person, such notice may be given to the attention of a Responsible Officer of the respective Person or to the attention of such individual or individuals as subsequently notified in writing by a Responsible Officer of the respective Person. Except as otherwise provided in this Agreement and except for notices given under Section 3 (which shall be effective only on receipt), all such communications shall be deemed to have been duly given when transmitted electronically or personally delivered or, in the case of a mailed notice, upon receipt, in each case given or addressed as aforesaid. SECTION 25. USE OF ELECTRONIC MEDIA Seller acknowledges and agrees that Buyer may require or permit certain transactions with Buyer be conducted electronically using Electronic Records and/or Electronic Signatures. Seller consents to the use of Electronic Records and/or Electronic Signatures whenever expressly required or permitted by Xxxxx and acknowledges and agrees that Seller shall be bound by its Electronic Signature and by the terms, conditions, requirements, information and/or instructions contained in any such Electronic Records. Seller agrees to adopt as its Electronic Signature its user identification codes, passwords, personal identification numbers, access codes, a facsimile image of a written signature
63 USActive 53515649.19 and/or other symbols or processes as provided or required by Buyer from time to time (as a group, any subgroup thereof or individually, hereinafter referred to as Seller’s Electronic Signature). Seller acknowledges that Buyer will rely on any and all Electronic Records and on Seller’s Electronic Signature transmitted or submitted to Buyer. Neither Buyer nor Seller shall be liable for the failure of either party’s internet service provider, or any other telecommunications company, telephone company, satellite company or cable company to timely, properly and accurately transmit any Electronic Record or fax copy. Seller understands and agrees that it shall be fully responsible for protecting and safeguarding its computer hardware and software from any and all (a) computer “viruses,” “time bombs,” “trojan horses” or other harmful computer information, commands, codes or programs that may cause or facilitate the destruction, corruption, malfunction or appropriation of, or damage or change to, any of Seller’s or Buyer’s computer information processing systems, including without limitation, all hardware, software, Electronic Records, information, data and/or codes and (b) computer “worms,” “trap doors” or other harmful computer information, commands, codes or programs that enable unauthorized access to Seller’s and/or Buyer’s computer information processing systems, including without limitation, all hardware, software, Electronic Records, information, data and/or codes. Seller agrees that Buyer may, in its sole discretion and from time to time, without limiting Seller’s liability set forth herein, establish minimum security standards to the extent that such standards are necessary to comply with all Requirements of Law and industry standards applicable to Buyer, that Seller must, at a minimum, comply with in an effort to (x) protect and safeguard any and all user identification codes, passwords, personal identification numbers and/or access codes from loss, theft or unauthorized disclosure or use and (y) prevent the infiltration and “infection” of Seller’s hardware and/or software by any and all computer “viruses,” “time bombs,” “trojan horses,” “worms,” “trapdoors” or other harmful computer codes or programs. If Buyer, from time to time, establishes minimum security standards, Seller shall comply with such minimum security standards within the time period established by Buyer. Buyer shall have the right to confirm Seller’s compliance with any such minimum security standards. Seller’s compliance with such minimum security standards shall not relieve Seller from any of its liability set forth herein. Whether or not Buyer establishes minimum security standards, Seller shall continue to be fully responsible for adopting and maintaining security measures that are consistent with the risks associated with conducting electronic transactions with Buyer. Seller’s failure to adopt and maintain appropriate security measures or to comply with any minimum security standards established by Buyer may result in, among other things, termination of Seller’s access to Buyer’s computer information processing systems. SECTION 26. ENTIRE AGREEMENT; SEVERABILITY; SINGLE AGREEMENT This Agreement, together with the Program Documents, constitute the entire understanding among Buyer and Seller with respect to the subject matter they cover and shall
64 USActive 53515649.19 supersede any existing agreements between the parties containing general terms and conditions for repurchase transactions involving Purchased Mortgage Loans. By acceptance of this Agreement, Xxxxx and Seller each acknowledges that it has not made, and is not relying upon, any statements, representations, promises or undertakings not contained in this Agreement. 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. Each of Xxxxx and Seller acknowledges that, and has entered hereinto and will enter into each Transaction hereunder in consideration of and in reliance upon the fact that, all Transactions hereunder constitute a single business and contractual relationship and that each has been entered into in consideration of the other Transactions.

66 USActive 53515649.19 SECTION 30. NETTING If Buyer and Seller are “financial institutions” as now or hereinafter defined in Section 4402 of Title 12 of the United States Code (“Section 4402”) and any rules or regulations promulgated thereunder (a) all amounts to be paid or advanced by one party to or on behalf of the other under this Agreement or any Transaction hereunder shall be deemed to be “payment obligations” and all amounts to be received by or on behalf of one party from the other under this Agreement or any Transaction hereunder shall be deemed to be “payment entitlements” within the meaning of Section 4402, and this Agreement shall be deemed to be a “netting contract” as defined in Section 4402; (b) the payment obligations and the payment entitlements of the parties hereto pursuant to this Agreement and any Transaction hereunder shall be netted as follows.

Sch. 1-3 USActive 53515649.19 SCHEDULE 1 REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES Seller represents and warrants to Buyer, with respect to each Mortgage Loan, that as of the Purchase Date for the purchase of any Purchased Mortgage Loans by Buyer from Seller and as of the date of this Agreement and any Transaction hereunder and at all times while the Program Documents and any Transaction hereunder is in full force and effect, that the following are true and correct. For purposes of this Schedule 1 and the representations and warranties set forth herein, a breach of a representation or warranty shall be deemed to have been cured with respect to a Mortgage Loan if and when Seller has taken or caused to be taken action such that the event, circumstance or condition that gave rise to such breach no longer affects such Mortgage Loan. With respect to those representations and warranties which are made to the best of Seller’s knowledge, if it is discovered by Seller or Buyer that the substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate, notwithstanding Seller’s lack of knowledge with respect to the substance of such representation and warranty, such inaccuracy shall be deemed a breach of the applicable representation and warranty. (a) Mortgage Loans as Described. The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is complete, true and correct. (b) Payments Current. No payment required under the Mortgage Loan is [*] or more delinquent nor has any payment under the Mortgage Loan been [*] or more delinquent at any time since the origination of the Mortgage Loan. (c) Origination Date. The initial Purchase Date is no more than [*] following the origination date, provided that this subsection (c) shall not apply to a Third Amendment TMFT Mortgage Loan. (d) Approved Underwriting Guidelines. The Mortgage Loan satisfies the Approved Underwriting Guidelines and Applicable Requirements. (e) No Outstanding Charges. There are no defaults in complying with the terms of the Mortgage Loan, and all taxes, governmental assessments, insurance premiums, 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. Originator 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 earlier, to the day which precedes by [*] the Due Date of the first installment of principal and interest. (f) Original Terms Unmodified. The terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect. No Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part from the security contemplated by the Mortgage. However, the foregoing shall not apply to any Third Amendment TMFT Mortgage Loan, if such exception was
Sch. 1-4 USActive 53515649.19 disclosed in writing by the Seller to Buyer and was approved by the Buyer in writing in its sole discretion. (g) 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, or subsequent to, the time the Mortgage Loan was originated. (h) Hazard Insurance. Pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage, 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 provided for in the Approved Underwriting Guidelines. If required by the National Flood Insurance Act of 1968, as amended, each Mortgage Loan is covered by a flood insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance Administration as in effect which policy conforms to the Approved Underwriting Guidelines. All individual insurance policies contain a standard mortgagee clause naming Originator and its successors and assigns as mortgagee, and all premiums thereon have been paid and such policies may not be reduced, terminated or cancelled without [*] prior written notice to the mortgagee. 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 Xxxxxxxxx’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 a condominium, or any 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 Buyer upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement. Seller has not engaged in, and has no knowledge of the Mortgagor’s or any servicer’s 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 such 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 Seller. (i) 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, anti-predatory lending laws, laws covering fair housing, fair credit reporting, community reinvestment, homeowners equity protection, equal credit opportunity, mortgage reform and disclosure laws or unfair and deceptive practices laws applicable to the Mortgage Loan have been complied with, the consummation of the transactions contemplated hereby will not involve the violation of any such laws or regulations. Seller shall
Sch. 1-5 USActive 53515649.19 maintain in its possession, available for Buyer’s inspection, and shall deliver to Buyer upon demand, evidence of compliance with all requirements set forth herein. (j) 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 affect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission. Originator 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 Originator waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor. (k) Location and Type of Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is a fee simple property located in the state identified in the Mortgage Loan Schedule except that with respect to real property located in jurisdictions in which the use of leasehold estates for residential properties is a widely-accepted practice, the Mortgaged Property may be a leasehold estate and consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached single family residence erected thereon, or a two- to four-family dwelling, or an individual residential condominium in a low-rise or high- rise condominium, or an individual unit in a planned unit development, provided, however, that any condominium or planned unit development shall conform with the Approved Underwriting Guidelines. The Mortgaged Property is not raw land. As of the date of origination, no portion of the Mortgaged Property was used for commercial purposes, and since the date of origination, no portion of the Mortgaged Property has been used for commercial purposes. (l) Valid Lien. (i) Each Mortgage (other than any HomeSafe Second) is a valid and subsisting first lien of record on a single parcel of real estate constituting the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings and improvements on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems located in or annexed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time, subject in all cases to the exceptions to title set forth in the title insurance policy with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, which exceptions are generally acceptable to prudent mortgage lending companies, and such other exceptions to which similar properties are commonly subject and which do not individually, or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affect the benefits of the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to: 1. the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable. 2. 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 the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and (a) specifically referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan or (b) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal; and 3. 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.
Sch. 1-6 USActive 53515649.19 (ii) Each HomeSafe Second is a valid and subsisting second lien of record on a single parcel of real estate constituting the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings and improvements on the Mortgaged Property and all installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning systems located in or annexed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and replacements made at any time, subject in all cases to the exceptions to title set forth in the title insurance policy with respect to the related Mortgage Loan, which exceptions are generally acceptable to prudent mortgage lending companies, and such other exceptions to which similar properties are commonly subject and which do not individually, or in the aggregate, materially and adversely affect the benefits of the security intended to be provided by such Mortgage. The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to: 1. (x) the first lien of record previously disclosed to Buyer and specifically considered in the origination of the Mortgage Loan and the determination of the Principal Limit of such Mortgage Loan and (y) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable. 2. 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 the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and (a) specifically referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan or (b) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal; and 3. 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. With respect to each of clauses (i) and (ii), any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien and first priority (or, solely in the case of a HomeSafe Second, a second lien and second priority) security interest on the property described therein and Originator has full right to sell and assign the same to Buyer. The Mortgaged Property was not, as of the date of origination of the Mortgage Loan, subject to a mortgage, deed of trust, deed to secure debt or other security instrument creating a lien subordinate to the lien of the Mortgage. (m) Validity of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor in connection with a Mortgage Loan are genuine, and each is the legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof enforceable in accordance with its terms. All parties to the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related agreement had legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and to execute and deliver the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any such agreement, and the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage and any other such related agreement have been duly and properly executed by other such related 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, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence with
Sch. 1-7 USActive 53515649.19 respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of any Person, including without limitation, the Mortgagor, any appraiser, any builder or developer, or any other party involved in the origination or servicing of the Mortgage Loan or in the application or any insurance in relation to such Mortgage Loan. Seller 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. (n) Full Disbursement of Proceeds. The Mortgage Loan has been closed and except with respect to the HomeSafe Selects and the HomeSafe Flex, 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. All points and fees related to each Mortgage Loan were disclosed in writing to the Mortgagor in accordance with applicable state and federal law and regulation. (o) Ownership. Seller is the sole owner of record and holder of the Mortgage Loan and the indebtedness evidenced by each Mortgage Note and upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans to Buyer, Seller will retain the Mortgage Files or any part thereof with respect thereto not delivered to the Custodian, Buyer or Buyer’s designee, in trust only for the purpose of servicing and supervising the servicing of each Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Loan is not assigned or pledged, and Seller has good, indefeasible and marketable title thereto, and has full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to Buyer 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 and following the sale of each Mortgage Loan, Buyer will own such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security interest. Seller intends to relinquish all rights to possess, control and monitor the Mortgage Loan. (p) 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 (2) either (i) organized under the laws of such state, or (ii) qualified to do business in such state, or (iii) a federal savings and loan association, a savings bank or a national bank having a principal office in such state, or (3) not doing business in such state. (q) LTV. No Mortgage Loan has an LTV as of its origination date greater than [*]. (r) Title Insurance.

Sch. 1-8 USActive 53515649.19 Approved Underwriting Guidelines and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring Originator, its successors and assigns, as to the first 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 (l) of this Schedule 1, and in the case of adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the Mortgage providing for adjustment 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 title policy does not contain any special exceptions (other than the standard exclusions) for zoning and uses and has been marked to delete the standard survey exception or to replace the standard survey exception with a specific survey reading. Originator, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy, and such lender’s 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 lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the related Mortgage, including Seller, 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 Originator. (s) No Defaults. Other than payments due but not yet [*] or more delinquent, there is no default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the 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, and neither Originator, Seller nor any of their respective affiliates nor any of their respective predecessors, have waived any default, breach, violation or event which would permit acceleration; provided, however, that the foregoing shall not apply to any Third Amendment TMFT Mortgage Loan, if such exception was disclosed in writing by the Seller to Buyer and was approved by the Buyer in writing in its sole discretion. (t) 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 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. All repair Set-Aside Amounts stated in the Mortgage Loan Documents are completed in accordance with Applicable Requirements. (u) 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, other than as provided in a recorded easement.

The mortgage interest rate as well as the lifetime rate cap (other than with respect to any HomeSafe Select) and the periodic cap are as set forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule. Any interest payments required to be made on the related Mortgage Note, with respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, are subject to change due to the adjustments to the mortgage interest rate on each interest rate adjustment date, with interest calculated and payable in arrears. There are no 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. (w) 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, spousal consent or other exemption or other right available to the Mortgagor or any other person, or restriction on Originator or any other person, including without limitation, any federal, state or local, law, ordinance, decree, regulation, guidance, attorney general action, or other pronouncement, whether temporary or permanent in nature, that would interfere with, restrict or delay, either (x) the ability of Seller, Buyer or any servicer or any successor servicer to perfect or enforce any Lien, (y) the ability of Seller, Buyer or any servicer or any successor servicer to sell the related Mortgaged Property at a trustee’s sale or otherwise, or (z) the ability of Seller, Buyer or any servicer or any successor servicer to foreclose on the related Mortgage. (x) Conformance with Approved Underwriting Guidelines.

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 of occupancy and fire underwriting certificates, have been made or obtained from the appropriate authorities. Proof of such occupancy has been established by Originator in accordance with Applicable Requirements. (z) No Additional Collateral. The Mortgage Note is not and has not been secured by any collateral except the lien of the corresponding Mortgage and the security interest of any applicable security agreement or chattel mortgage referred to in clause (l) above.

In the event the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, authorized and duly qualified under applicable law to serve as such, has been properly designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees or expenses are or will become payable by Buyer to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection with a trustee’s sale after default by the Mortgagor. (bb) [Reserved.] (cc) Delivery of Mortgage Documents. The Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the Assignment of Mortgage and any other documents required to be delivered under the Custodial Agreement for each Mortgage Loan have been delivered to the Custodian. Seller has delivered or caused to be delivered a complete, true and accurate Mortgage File to the Custodian. (dd) Representations and Warranties. The representations and warranties required by the Approved Underwriting Guidelines, if any, have been satisfied and remain true and correct. (ee) Transfer of Mortgage Loans. The Assignment of Mortgage with respect to each Mortgage Loan is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the laws of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located. The transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Mortgage Notes and the Mortgages by Originator or Seller (if not Originator) are not subject to the bulk transfer or similar statutory provisions in effect in any applicable jurisdiction. (ff) Due-On-Sale. The Mortgage contains an enforceable provision for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal balance of the Mortgage Loan in the event that the Mortgaged Property is sold or transferred without the prior written consent of the mortgagee thereunder, and to the best of Seller’s knowledge, such provision is enforceable. (gg) Assumability. No Mortgage Loan is assumable. (hh) No Buydown Provisions; No Graduated Payments or Contingent Interests. The Mortgage Loan does not contain provisions pursuant to which Monthly Payments are paid or partially paid with funds deposited in any separate account established by Originator, the Mortgagor, or anyone on behalf of the Mortgagor, or paid by any source other than the Mortgagor nor does it contain any other similar provisions which may constitute a “buydown” provision. The Mortgage Loan is not a graduated payment mortgage loan and the Mortgage Loan does not have a shared appreciation or other contingent interest feature. (ii) 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, solely in the case of a HomeSafe Second, 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 in accordance with the Approved Underwriting Guidelines. The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the Principal Limit amount of the Mortgage Loan. All Principal Advances made on or prior to the
Sch. 1-11 USActive 53515649.19 related Cut-off Date have been made in a timely fashion and in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage and the Mortgage Note and the Approved Underwriting Guidelines. (jj) Mortgaged Property Undamaged; No Condemnation Proceedings. There is no proceeding pending or threatened for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property. The Mortgaged Property is undamaged by waste, fire, earthquake or earth movement, windstorm, flood, tornado or other casualty so as to affect adversely the value of the Mortgaged Property as security for the Mortgage Loan or the use for which the premises were intended and each Mortgaged Property is in good repair. Originator has completed any property inspections required by the Approved Underwriting Guidelines, and such inspections, if any, show no evidence of property damage or deferred maintenance, unless the property damage and deferred maintenance was considered part of the initial repair Set-Aside Amounts disclosed in the related Mortgage Loan Documents on the related loan closing date. (kk) Collection Practices; Escrow Deposits; Interest Rate Adjustments. The origination, servicing and collection practices used by Originator and Seller with respect to the Mortgage Loan have been in all respects in compliance with Accepted Servicing Practices, applicable laws and regulations, and have been in all respects legal and proper and prudent in the mortgage origination and servicing business. With respect to escrow deposits and Escrow Payments, all such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of, Seller and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made. All Escrow Payments have been collected in full compliance with state and federal law and the provisions of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage. An escrow of funds is not prohibited by applicable law and has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for every item that remains unpaid and has been assessed but is not yet due and payable. No escrow deposits or Escrow Payments or other charges or payments due have been capitalized under the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note. All mortgage interest rate adjustments have been made in strict compliance with state and federal law and the terms of the related Mortgage and Mortgage Note on the related interest rate adjustment date. If, pursuant to the terms of the Mortgage Note, another index was selected for determining the mortgage interest rate, the same index was used with respect to each Mortgage Note which required a new index to be selected, and such selection did not conflict with the terms of the related Mortgage Note. Originator executed and delivered any and all notices required under applicable law and the terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the mortgage interest rate and the Monthly Payment adjustments. Any interest required to be paid pursuant to state, federal and local law has been properly paid and credited. (ll) No Violation of Environmental Laws. The Mortgaged Property is free from any and all toxic or hazardous substances and there exists no violation of any local, state or federal environmental law, rule or regulation. There is no pending action or proceeding directly involving the Mortgaged Property in which compliance with any environmental law, rule or regulation is an issue; there is no violation of any environmental law, rule or regulation with respect to the Mortgaged Property; and nothing further remains to be done to satisfy in full all requirements of each such law, rule or regulation constituting a prerequisite to use and enjoyment of said property.

The Mortgagor has not notified Originator or Seller, and Seller has no knowledge of any relief requested or allowed to the Mortgagor under the Servicemembers Civil Relief Act of 2003.

(rr) No Defense to Insurance Coverage. Originator or Seller, as applicable, has caused or will cause to be performed any and all acts required to preserve the rights and remedies of Buyer in any insurance policies applicable to the Mortgage Loans including, without limitation, any necessary notifications of insurers, assignments of policies or interests therein, and establishments of coinsured, joint loss payee and mortgagee rights in favor of Buyer.
