(c)Original Terms Unmodified.  The terms of the Mortgage Note (and the Proprietary Lease, the Assignment of Proprietary Lease and Stock Power with respect to each Co-op Loan) and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect, from the date of origination; except by a written instrument which has been 

5





 

duly recorded or transmitted for recording, if necessary to protect the interests of Buyers, and which has been delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Custodial Asset Schedule.  The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the title insurer, to the extent required, and its terms are reflected on the Custodial Asset Schedule.  No Mortgagor in respect of the Mortgage Loan has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement approved by the title insurer, to the extent required by such policy, and which assumption agreement is part of the Asset File delivered to the Custodian and the terms of which are reflected in the Custodial Asset Schedule.

(g)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  The Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed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 (except with respect to subordination of a second lien HELOC to the first priority lien or security interest).  No Seller has 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 any Seller waived any default resulting from any action or inaction by the Mortgagor.

(i)Valid First or Second Lien.  The Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and, with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Second Lien Mortgage Loans, perfected first priority lien and first priority security interest or, with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans, a second lien or a second priority security interest, in each case, on the real property included in the Mortgaged Property, including all buildings 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 with respect to the foregoing.  The lien of the Mortgage is subject only to:

a.the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable;

b.covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and (a) referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan or (b) which do not adversely affect the Appraised Value of the Mortgaged Property set forth in such appraisal;

c.other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property; and

6





 

d.with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans, a first lien.

Any security agreement, chattel mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with the Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable (a) with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Second Lien Mortgage Loans, first lien and first priority security interest and (b) with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans, second lien and second priority interest, in each case, on the property described therein and the applicable Seller has full right to pledge and assign the same to Administrative Agent.  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.

(j)Validity of Mortgage Documents.  The Mortgage Note and the Mortgage and any other agreement executed and delivered by a Mortgagor or guarantor, if applicable, 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 such related parties.  No fraud, error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence with 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 of the Mortgage Loan.  The applicable Seller has reviewed all of the documents constituting the Asset File and has made such inquiries as it deems necessary to make and confirm the accuracy of the representations set forth herein.  To the best of Sellers’ knowledge, except as disclosed to Administrative Agent in writing, all tax identifications and property descriptions are legally sufficient; and tax segregation, where required, has been completed.  Such Purchased Mortgage Loan is a “closed” loan, is fully funded by Seller (except with respect to a HELOC), and held in Seller’s name.

(k)Full Disbursement of Proceeds.  Except with respect to (i) HELOC, (ii) an FHA 203(k) Loan, or (iii) an eligible, single-close, renovation or construction-to-permanent Agency Mortgage Loan, there is no further requirement for future advances under the Mortgage Loan, 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.

(n)Title Insurance.  The Mortgage Loan is covered by either (i) an attorney’s opinion of title and abstract of title, the form and substance of which is acceptable to prudent mortgage lending institutions making mortgage loans in the area wherein the Mortgaged Property is located or (ii) except with respect to HELOCs covered by a Master Secondary Loan Policy acquired from Old Republic Home Protection and/or an errors and omissions policy approved by the Buyers in their sole discretion, an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to Administrative Agent with respect to Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae 

7





 

or Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans, and each such title insurance policy is issued by a title insurer acceptable to Administrative Agent with respect to Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans, and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring the applicable Seller, its successors and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage, other than Second Lien Mortgage Loans, and with respect to Second Lien Mortgage Loans as to the second priority lien of the related Mortgage, as applicable, in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan, with respect to a Mortgage Loan, or, with respect to a HELOC, the original Credit Limit (or to the extent a Mortgage Note provides for negative amortization, the maximum amount of negative amortization in accordance with the Mortgage), subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (a), (b) and (c) of paragraph (i) of this Schedule 1 with respect to Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac with respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans.  The applicable Seller, 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 or servicer of the related Mortgage, including any 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, and no such unlawful items have been received, retained or realized by a Seller.

(p)Property Value.  When applicable, Seller has delivered to Administrative Agent a BPO valuation and valuation date given by a licensed real estate agent or broker in conformity with customary and usual business practices, which includes comparable sales and comparable listings and complies with the criteria set forth in FIRREA for an “appraisal” or an “evaluation”, as applicable, and such other information in further compliance with this Agreement.  The person performing any BPO received no benefit from, and such person’s compensation or flow of business from the Sellers were not affected by, the acquisition of the Mortgage Loan by the Sellers or any other applicable transferee.

(r)Origination; Payment Terms.  The Mortgage Loan was originated by or in conjunction with a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing and Urban Development pursuant to Sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit union, insurance company or similar banking institution which is supervised and examined by a federal or state authority.  Except with respect to HELOCs, principal and/or interest payments on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than sixty (60) days after funds were disbursed in connection with the Mortgage Loan. With respect to Mortgage Loans other than Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans, the Mortgagor contributed 

8





 

from their own funds to the purchase price for the Mortgaged Property, as required by the applicable Agency. With respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans, the Mortgage Interest Rate is adjusted on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date to equal the Index plus the Gross Margin (rounded up or down to the nearest 0.125%), subject to the Mortgage Interest Rate Cap.  Except with respect to HELOCs, the Mortgage Note is payable on the first day of each month in equal monthly installments of principal and/or interest (subject to an “interest only” period in the case of Interest Only Loans), which installments of interest (a) with respect to adjustable rate Mortgage Loans are subject to change on the Interest Rate Adjustment Date due to adjustments to the Mortgage Interest Rate on each Interest Rate Adjustment Date and (b) with respect to Interest Only Loans are subject to change on the Interest Only Adjustment Date due to adjustments to the Mortgage Interest Rate on each Interest Only Adjustment Date, in both cases with interest calculated and payable in arrears, sufficient to amortize the Mortgage Loan fully by the stated maturity date, over an original term of not more than thirty (30) years from commencement of amortization.

(s)Customary Provisions.  The Mortgage Note has a stated maturity.  The Mortgage contains customary and enforceable provisions such as to render the rights and remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the Mortgaged Property of the benefits of the security provided thereby, including, (i) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by trustee’s sale, and (ii) otherwise by judicial foreclosure.  Upon default by a Mortgagor on a Mortgage Loan and foreclosure on, or trustee’s sale of, the Mortgaged Property pursuant to the proper procedures, the holder of the Mortgage Loan will be able to deliver good and merchantable title to the Mortgaged Property.  There is no homestead or other exemption or other right available to the Mortgagor or any other person, or restriction on any Seller 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 (y) the ability of any Seller, Administrative Agent, a 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 any Seller, Administrative Agent, a Buyer or any servicer or any successor servicer to foreclose on the related Mortgage.  Except with respect to HELOCs, the Mortgage Note and Mortgage are on forms acceptable to Administrative Agent with respect to Non-Agency QM Mortgage Loans and Non-Agency Non-QM Mortgage Loans and Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.  If the Mortgage Loan is an eMortgage Loan, the related eNote contains the Agency-Required eNote Legend.

(x)Due-On-Sale.  Except with respect to Mortgage Loans intended for purchase by GNMA and as may otherwise be prohibited by applicable law, 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.

(z)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

The consolidated principal amount does not exceed the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan.

With respect to each Agency Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage File contains either (i) to the extent permitted by the applicable Agency, a Property Inspection Waiver (as defined in the applicable Agency guidelines) or any other valuation method permitted by the Agency and acceptable to the Buyers in their sole discretion, or (ii) an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property signed prior to the funding of the Mortgage Loan by a qualified appraiser, duly appointed by Sellers, who had no interest, direct or indirect in the Mortgaged Property or in any loan made on the security thereof, and whose compensation is not affected by the approval or disapproval of the Mortgage Loan, and the appraisal and appraiser both satisfy the requirements of Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and Title XI of the Federal Institutions Reform, Recovery, and Enforcement Act of 1989 as amended and the regulations promulgated thereunder (“FIRREA”), all as in effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated.  With respect to each Mortgage Loan that is not an Agency Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage File contains a property valuation acceptable to the Administrative Agent and Buyers in their sole discretion.

(iii)TRID Compliance.  With respect to each Mortgage Loan (other than a HELOC) where the Mortgagor’s loan application for the Mortgage Loan was taken on or after October 3, 2015, such Mortgage Loan was originated in compliance with the TILA-RESPA Integrated Disclosure Rule.
