      addition to the Purchase Price as described above, the Purchaser shall pay
      to
      the Company, at closing, accrued interest on the Stated Principal Balance of
      each Mortgage Loan as of the related Cut-off Date at the Mortgage Loan
      Remittance Rate of each Mortgage Loan from the related Cut-off Date through
      the
      day prior to the related Closing Date, inclusive.

    

    The
      Purchase Price plus accrued interest as set forth in the preceding paragraph
      shall be paid on the related Closing Date by wire transfer of immediately
      available funds.

    

    Purchaser
      shall be entitled to (1) all scheduled principal due after the related Cut-off
      Date, (2) all other recoveries of principal collected on or after the related
      Cut-off Date (provided, however, that all scheduled payments of principal due
      on
      or before the related Cut-off Date and collected by the Company or any successor
      servicer after the related Cut-off Date shall belong to the Company), and (3)
      all payments of interest on the Mortgage Loans net of applicable Servicing
      Fees
      (minus that portion of any such payment which is allocable to the period prior
      to the related Cut-off Date). The outstanding principal balance of each Mortgage
      Loan as of the related Cut-off Date is determined after application of payments
      of principal due on or before the related Cut-off Date whether or not collected,
      together with any unscheduled principal prepayments collected prior to the
      related Cut-off Date; provided, however, that payments of scheduled principal
      and interest prepaid for a Due Date beyond the related Cut-off Date shall not
      be
      applied to the principal balance as of the related Cut-off Date. Such prepaid
      amounts shall be the property of the Purchaser. The Company shall deposit any
      such prepaid amounts into the Custodial Account, which account is established
      for the benefit of the Purchaser for subsequent remittance by the Company to
      the
      Purchaser.

    

    Section
      2.03 Servicing
      of Mortgage Loans.

    

    Simultaneously
      with the execution and delivery of each Term Sheet, the Company does hereby
      agree to directly service the Mortgage Loans listed on the related Mortgage
      Loan
      Schedule attached to the related Term Sheet subject to the terms of this
      Agreement and the related Term Sheet. The rights of the Purchaser to receive
      payments with respect to the related Mortgage Loans shall be as set forth in
      this Agreement.

    

    Section
      2.04 Record
      Title and Possession of Mortgage Files; Maintenance of Servicing
      Files.

    

    As
      of the
      related Closing Date, the Company sold, transferred, assigned, set over and
      conveyed to the Purchaser, without recourse, on a servicing retained basis,
      and
      the Company hereby acknowledges that the Purchaser has, but subject to the
      terms
      of this Agreement and the related Term Sheet, all the right, title and interest
      of the Company in and to the Mortgage Loans. Company will deliver the Mortgage
      Files to the Custodian designated by Purchaser, on or before the related Closing
      Date, at the expense of the Company. The Company shall maintain a Servicing
      File
      consisting of a copy of the contents of each Mortgage File and the originals
      of
      the documents in each Mortgage File not delivered to the Purchaser. The
      Servicing File shall contain all documents necessary to service the Mortgage
      Loans. The possession of each Servicing File by the Company is at the will
      of
      the Purchaser, for the sole purpose of servicing the related Mortgage Loan,
      and
      such retention and possession by the Company is in a custodial capacity only.
      From the related Closing Date, the ownership of each Mortgage Loan, including
      the Mortgage Note, the Mortgage, the contents of the related Mortgage File
      and
      all rights, benefits, proceeds and obligations arising therefrom or in
      connection therewith, has been vested in the Purchaser. All rights arising
      out
      of the Mortgage Loans including, but not limited to, all funds received on
      or in
      connection with the Mortgage Loans and all records or documents with respect
      to
      the Mortgage Loans prepared by or which come into the possession of the Company
      shall be received and held by the Company in trust for the benefit of the
      Purchaser as the owner of the Mortgage Loans. Any portion of the Mortgage Files
      retained by the Company shall be appropriately identified in the Company's
      computer system to clearly reflect the ownership of the Mortgage Loans by the
      Purchaser. The Company shall release its custody of the contents of the Mortgage
      Files only in accordance with written instructions of the Purchaser, except
      when
      such release is required as incidental to the Company's servicing of the
      Mortgage Loans or is in connection with a repurchase of any Mortgage Loan or
      Loans with respect thereto pursuant to this Agreement and the related Term
      Sheet, such written instructions shall not be required.

    

    Section
      2.05  Books
      and Records.

    

    The
      sale
      of each Mortgage Loan shall be reflected on the Company's balance sheet and
      other financial statements as a sale of assets by the Company. The Company
      shall
      be responsible for maintaining, and shall maintain, a complete set of books
      and
      records for the Mortgage Loans that shall be appropriately identified in the
      Company's computer system to clearly reflect the ownership of the Mortgage
      Loan
      by the Purchaser. In particular, the Company shall maintain in its possession,
      available for inspection by the Purchaser, or its designee and shall deliver
      to
      the Purchaser upon demand, evidence of compliance with all federal, state and
      local laws, rules and regulations, and requirements of Fannie Mae or FHLMC,
      as
      applicable, including but not limited to documentation as to the method used
      in
      determining the applicability of the provisions of the Flood Disaster Protection
      Act of 1973, as amended, to the Mortgaged Property, documentation evidencing
      insurance coverage of any condominium project as required by Fannie Mae or
      FHLMC, and periodic inspection reports as required by Section 4.13. To the
      extent that original documents are not required for purposes of realization
      of
      Liquidation Proceeds or Insurance Proceeds, documents maintained by the Company
      may be in the form of microfilm or microfiche.

    

    The
      Company shall maintain with respect to each Mortgage Loan and shall make
      available for inspection by any Purchaser or its designee the related Servicing
      File during the time the Purchaser retains ownership of a Mortgage Loan and
      thereafter in accordance with applicable laws and regulations.

    

    In
      addition to the foregoing, Company shall provide to any supervisory agents
      or
      examiners that regulate Purchaser, including but not limited to, the OTS, the
      FDIC and other similar entities, access, during normal business hours, upon
      reasonable advance notice to Company and without cost to Company or such
      supervisory agents or examiners, to any documentation regarding the Mortgage
      Loans that may be required by any applicable regulator.

    

    Section
      2.06. Transfer
      of Mortgage Loans.

    

    The
      Company shall keep at its servicing office books and records in which, subject
      to such reasonable regulations as it may prescribe, the Company shall note
      transfers of Mortgage Loans. No transfer of a Mortgage Loan may be made unless
      such transfer is in compliance with the terms hereof. For the purposes of this
      Agreement, the Company shall be under no obligation to deal with any person
      with
      respect to this Agreement or any Mortgage Loan unless a notice of the transfer
      of such Mortgage Loan has been delivered to the Company in accordance with
      this
      Section 2.06 and the books and records of the Company show such person as the
      owner of the Mortgage Loan. The Purchaser may, subject to the terms of this
      Agreement, sell and transfer one or more of the Mortgage Loans, provided,
      however, that the transferee will not be deemed to be a Purchaser hereunder
      binding upon the Company unless such transferee shall agree in writing to be
      bound by the terms of this Agreement and an original counterpart of the
      instrument of transfer in an Assignment and Assumption of this Agreement
      substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto executed by the transferee shall
      have been delivered to the Company. The Purchaser also shall advise the Company
      of the transfer. Upon receipt of notice of the transfer, the Company shall
      mark
      its books and records to reflect the ownership of the Mortgage Loans of such
      assignee, and the previous Purchaser shall be released from its obligations
      hereunder with respect to the Mortgage Loans sold or transferred.

    

    Section
      2.07 Delivery
      of Mortgage Loan Documents.

    

    The
      Company shall deliver and release to the Purchaser or its designee the Mortgage
      Loan Documents in accordance with the terms of this Agreement and the related
      Term Sheet. The documents enumerated as items (1), (2), (3), (4), (5), (6),
      (7),
      (8), (9) and (16) in Exhibit A hereto shall be delivered by the Company to
      the
      Purchaser or its designee no later than three (3) Business Days prior to the
      related Closing Date pursuant to a bailee letter agreement. All other documents
      in Exhibit A hereto, together with all other documents executed in connection
      with the Mortgage Loan that Company may have in its possession, shall be
      retained by the Company in trust for the Purchaser. If the Company cannot
      deliver the original recorded Mortgage Loan Documents or the original policy
      of
      title insurance, including riders and endorsements thereto, on the related
      Closing Date, the Company shall, promptly upon receipt thereof and in any case
      not later than 120 days from the related Closing Date, deliver such original
      documents, including original recorded documents, to the Purchaser or its
      designee (unless the Company is delayed in making such delivery by reason of
      the
      fact that such documents shall not have been returned by the appropriate
      recording office). If delivery is not completed within 120 days solely due
      to
      delays in making such delivery by reason of the fact that such documents shall
      not have been returned by the appropriate recording office, Company shall
      deliver such document to Purchaser, or its designee, within such time period
      as
      specified in a Company's Officer's Certificate. In the event that documents
      have
      not been received by the date specified in the Company's Officer's Certificate,
      a subsequent Company's Officer's Certificate shall be delivered by such date
      specified in the prior Company's Officer's Certificate, stating a revised date
      for receipt of documentation. The procedure shall be repeated until the
      documents have been received and delivered. If delivery is not completed within
      180 days solely due to delays in making such delivery by reason of the fact
      that
      such documents shall not have been returned by the appropriate recording office,
      the Company shall continue to use its best efforts to effect delivery as soon
      as
      possible thereafter, provided that if such documents are not delivered by the
      270th day from the date of the related Closing Date, the Company shall
      repurchase the related Mortgage Loans at the Repurchase Price in accordance
      with
      Section 3.03 hereof.

    

    The
      Company shall pay all initial recording fees, if any, for the assignments of
      mortgage and any other fees in connection with the transfer of all original
      documents to the Purchaser or its designee. Company shall prepare, in recordable
      form, all assignments of mortgage necessary to assign the Mortgage Loans to
      Purchaser, or its designee. Company shall be responsible for recording the
      assignments of mortgage.

    

    Company
      shall provide an original or duplicate original of the title insurance policy
      to
      Purchaser or its designee within ninety (90) days of the receipt of the recorded
      documents (required for issuance of such policy) from the applicable recording
      office.

    

    Any
      review by the Purchaser, or its designee, of the Mortgage Files shall in no
      way
      alter or reduce the Company's obligations hereunder.

    

    If
      the
      Purchaser or its designee discovers any defect with respect to a Mortgage File,
      the Purchaser shall, or shall cause its designee to, give written specification
      of such defect to the Company which may be given in the exception report or
      the
      certification delivered pursuant to this Section 2.07, or otherwise in writing
      and the Company shall cure or repurchase such Mortgage Loan in accordance with
      Section 3.03.

    

    The
      Company shall forward to the Purchaser, or its designee, original documents
      evidencing an assumption, modification, consolidation or extension of any
      Mortgage Loan entered into in accordance with Section 4.01 or 6.01 within one
      week of their execution; provided, however, that the Company shall provide
      the
      Purchaser, or its designee, with a certified true copy of any such document
      submitted for recordation within one week of its execution, and shall provide
      the original of any document submitted for recordation or a copy of such
      document certified by the appropriate public recording office to be a true
      and
      complete copy of the original within sixty (60) days of its submission for
      recordation.

    

    From
      time
      to time the Company may have a need for Mortgage Loan Documents to be released
      from Purchaser, or its designee. Purchaser shall, or shall cause its designee,
      upon the written request of the Company, within ten (10) Business Days, deliver
      to the Company, any requested documentation previously delivered to Purchaser
      as
      part of the Mortgage File, provided that such documentation is promptly returned
      to Purchaser, or its designee, when the Company no longer requires possession
      of
      the document, and provided that during the time that any such documentation
      is
      held by the Company, such possession is in trust for the benefit of Purchaser.
      Company shall indemnify Purchaser, and its designee, from and against any and
      all losses, claims, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, costs and expenses
      (including court costs and reasonable attorney's fees) resulting from or related
      to the loss, damage, or misplacement of any documentation delivered to Company
      pursuant to this paragraph.

    

    Section
      2.08 Quality
      Control Procedures.

    

    The
      Company must have an internal quality control program that verifies, on a
      regular basis, the existence and accuracy of the legal documents, credit
      documents, property appraisals, and underwriting decisions. The program must
      be
      capable of evaluating and monitoring the overall quality of its loan production
      and servicing activities. The program is to ensure that the Mortgage Loans
      are
      originated and serviced in accordance with prudent mortgage banking practices
      and accounting principles; guard against dishonest, fraudulent, or negligent
      acts; and guard against errors and omissions by officers, employees, or other
      authorized persons.

    

    Section
      2.09 Near-term
      Principal Prepayments in Full; Near Term Payment Defaults

    

    In
      the
      event any Principal Prepayment in full is made by a Mortgagor on or prior to
      three months after the related Closing Date, the Company shall remit to the
      Purchaser an amount equal to the excess, if any, of the Purchase Price
      Percentage over par multiplied by the amount of such Principal Prepayment in
      full. Such remittance shall be made by the Company to Purchaser not later than
      five (5) Business Days after notice to the Company.

    

    In
      the
      event either of the first three (3) scheduled Monthly Payments which are due
      under any Mortgage Loan after the related Cut-off Date are not made during
      the
      month in which such Monthly Payments are due, then not later than five (5)
      Business Days after notice to the Company by Purchaser (and at Purchaser’s sole
      option), the Company, shall repurchase such Mortgage Loan from the Purchaser
      pursuant to the repurchase provisions contained in this Subsection
      3.03.

    

    Section
      2.10  Modification
      of Obligations. 

    

    Purchaser
      may, without any notice to Company, extend, compromise, renew, release, change,
      modify, adjust or alter, by operation of law or otherwise, any of the
      obligations of the Mortgagors or other persons obligated under a Mortgage Loan
      without releasing or otherwise affecting the obligations of Company under this
      Agreement, or with respect to such Mortgage Loan, except to the extent
      Purchaser’s extension, compromise, release, change, modification, adjustment, or
      alteration affects Company’s ability to collect the Mortgage Loan or realize on
      the security of the Mortgage, but then only to the extent such action has such
      effect.

      3.01 Representations
      and Warranties of the Company. 

    

    Each
      the
      Seller and Servicer represents, warrants and covenants to the Purchaser that,
      as
      of the related Closing Date or as of such date specifically provided
      herein:

    

    (a) The
      Company is a corporation, duly organized, validly existing and in good standing
      under the laws of the State of Kansas and has all licenses necessary to carry
      out its business as now being conducted, and is licensed and qualified to
      transact business in and is in good standing under the laws of each state in
      which any Mortgaged Property is located or is otherwise exempt under applicable
      law from such licensing or qualification or is otherwise not required under
      applicable law to effect such licensing or qualification and no demand for
      such
      licensing or qualification has been made upon such Company by any such state,
      and in any event such Company is in compliance with the laws of any such state
      to the extent necessary to ensure the enforceability of each Mortgage Loan
      and
      the servicing of the Mortgage Loans in accordance with the terms of this
      Agreement. The Servicer is a wholly owned subsidiary of the Seller;

     

    (b)
      The
      Company has the full power and authority and legal right to hold, transfer
      and
      convey each Mortgage Loan, to sell each Mortgage Loan and to execute, deliver
      and perform, and to enter into and consummate all transactions contemplated
      by
      this Agreement and the related Term Sheet and to conduct its business as
      presently conducted, has duly authorized the execution, delivery and performance
      of this Agreement and the related Term Sheet and any agreements contemplated
      hereby, has duly executed and delivered this Agreement and the related Term
      Sheet, and any agreements contemplated hereby, and this Agreement and the
      related Term Sheet and each Assignment to the Purchaser and any agreements
      contemplated hereby, constitutes a legal, valid and binding obligation of the
      Company, enforceable against it in accordance with its terms, and all requisite
      corporate action has been taken by the Company to make this Agreement and the
      related Term Sheet and all agreements contemplated hereby valid and binding
      upon
      the Company in accordance with their terms; 

    

    (c)
      Neither the execution and delivery of this Agreement and the related Term Sheet,
      nor the origination or purchase of the Mortgage Loans by the Company, the sale
      of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, the consummation of the transactions
      contemplated hereby, or the fulfillment of or compliance with the terms and
      conditions of this Agreement and the related Term Sheet will conflict with
      any
      of the terms, conditions or provisions of the Company's charter or by-laws
      or
      materially conflict with or result in a material breach of any of the terms,
      conditions or provisions of any legal restriction or any agreement or instrument
      to which the Company is now a party or by which it is bound, or constitute
      a
      default or result in an acceleration under any of the foregoing, or result
      in
      the material violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment or decree
      to which the Company or its properties are subject, or impair the ability of
      the
      Purchaser to realize on the Mortgage Loans.

    

    (d)
      There
      is no litigation, suit, proceeding or investigation pending or, to the best
      of
      Company’s knowledge, threatened, or any order or decree outstanding, with
      respect to the Company which, either in any one instance or in the aggregate,
      is
      reasonably likely to have a material adverse effect on the sale of the Mortgage
      Loans, the execution, delivery, performance or enforceability of this Agreement
      and the related Term Sheet, or which is reasonably likely to have a material
      adverse effect on the financial condition of the Company.

    

    (e)
      No
      consent, approval, authorization or order of any court or governmental agency
      or
      body is required for the execution, delivery and performance by the Company
      of
      or compliance by the Company with this Agreement or the related Term Sheet,
      or
      the sale of the Mortgage Loans and delivery of the Mortgage Files to the
      Purchaser or the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement
      or the related Term Sheet, except for consents, approvals, authorizations and
      orders which have been obtained;

    

    (f)
      The
      consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement or the related
      Term Sheet is in the ordinary course of business of the Company and Company,
      and
      the transfer, assignment and conveyance of the Mortgage Notes and the Mortgages
      by the Company pursuant to this Agreement or the related Term Sheet are not
      subject to bulk transfer or any similar statutory provisions in effect in any
      applicable jurisdiction;

    

    (g)
      The
      origination and servicing practices used by the Company and any prior originator
      or servicer with respect to each Mortgage Note and Mortgage have been legal
      and
      in accordance with applicable laws and regulations and the Mortgage Loan
      Documents, and in all material respects proper and prudent in the mortgage
      origination and servicing business. Each Mortgage Loan has been serviced in
      all
      material respects with Accepted Servicing Practices. With respect to escrow
      deposits and payments that the Company, on behalf of an investor, is entitled
      to
      collect, all such payments are in the possession of, or under the control of,
      the Company, 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. As to any Mortgage
      Loan that is the subject of an escrow, escrow of funds is not prohibited by
      applicable law and has been established in an amount sufficient to pay for
      every
      escrowed item that remains unpaid and has been assessed but is not yet due
      and
      payable. No escrow deposits or other charges or payments due under the Mortgage
      Note have been capitalized under any Mortgage or the related Mortgage
      Note;

    

    (h)
      The
      Company used no selection procedures that identified the Mortgage Loans as
      being
      less desirable or valuable than other comparable mortgage loans in the Company's
      portfolio at the related Cut-off Date; 

    

    (i) The
      Company will treat the sale of the Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser as a sale
      for
      reporting and accounting purposes and, to the extent appropriate, for federal
      income tax purposes; 

    

    (j) Company
      is an approved seller/servicer of residential mortgage loans for Fannie Mae,
      FHLMC and HUD, with such facilities, procedures and personnel necessary for
      the
      sound servicing of such mortgage loans. The Company is duly qualified, licensed,
      registered and otherwise authorized under all applicable federal, state and
      local laws, and regulations, if applicable, meets the minimum capital
      requirements set forth by the OCC, and is in good standing to sell mortgage
      loans to and service mortgage loans for Fannie Mae and FHLMC and no event has
      occurred which would make Company unable to comply with eligibility requirements
      or which would require notification to either Fannie Mae or FHLMC; 

    

    (k) The
      Company does not believe, nor does it have any cause or reason to believe,
      that
      it cannot perform each and every covenant contained in this Agreement or the
      related Term Sheet. The Company is solvent and the sale of the Mortgage Loans
      will not cause the Company to become insolvent. The sale of the Mortgage Loans
      is not undertaken with the intent to hinder, delay or defraud any of the
      Company's creditors;

    

    (l) No
      statement, tape, diskette, form, report or other document prepared by, or on
      behalf of, Company pursuant to this Agreement or the related Term Sheet or
      in
      connection with the transactions contemplated hereby, contains or will contain
      any statement that is or will be inaccurate or misleading in any material
      respect;

    

    (m)
       The
      Company acknowledges and agrees that the Servicing Fee represents reasonable
      compensation for performing such services and that the entire Servicing Fee
      shall be treated by the Company, for accounting and tax purposes, as
      compensation for the servicing and administration of the Mortgage Loans pursuant
      to this Agreement. In the opinion of Company, the consideration received by
      Company upon the sale of the Mortgage Loans to Purchaser under this Agreement
      and the related Term Sheet constitutes fair consideration for the Mortgage
      Loans
      under current market conditions. 

    

    (n)
       Company
      has delivered to the Purchaser financial statements of its parent, for its
      last
      two complete fiscal years. All such financial information fairly presents the
      pertinent results of operations and financial position for the period identified
      and has been prepared in accordance with GAAP consistently applied throughout
      the periods involved, except as set forth in the notes thereto. There has been
      no change in the business, operations, financial condition, properties or assets
      of the Company since the date of the Company’s financial information that would
      have a material adverse effect on its ability to perform its obligations under
      this Agreement;

    

    (o)
       The
      Company has not dealt with any broker, investment banker, agent or other person
      that may be entitled to any commission or compensation in connection with the
      sale of the Mortgage Loans; 

    

    Section
      3.02 Representations
      and Warranties as to Individual Mortgage Loans.

    

    References
      in this Section to percentages of Mortgage Loans refer in each case to the
      percentage of the aggregate Stated Principal Balance of the Mortgage Loans
      as of
      the related Cut-off Date, based on the outstanding Stated Principal Balances
      of
      the Mortgage Loans as of the related Cut-off Date, and giving effect to
      scheduled Monthly Payments due on or prior to the related Cut-off Date, whether
      or not received. References to percentages of Mortgaged Properties refer, in
      each case, to the percentages of expected aggregate Stated Principal Balances
      of
      the related Mortgage Loans (determined as described in the preceding sentence).
      The Company hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser, as to each Mortgage
      Loan, as of the related Closing Date as follows:

    

      
      (a)
The
      information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule attached to the related
      Term
      Sheet is true, complete and correct in all material respects as of the related
      Cut-Off Date;

    

    (b) The
      Mortgage creates a valid, subsisting and enforceable first lien or a first
      priority ownership interest in an estate in fee simple in real property securing
      the related Mortgage Note subject to principles of equity, bankruptcy,
      insolvency and other laws of general application affecting the rights of
      creditors;

    

    (c)
      All
      payments due prior to the related Cut-off Date for such Mortgage Loan have
      been
      made as of the related Closing Date; the Mortgage Loan has not been dishonored;
      there are no material defaults under the terms of the Mortgage Loan; the Company
      has not advanced its own funds, or induced, solicited or knowingly received
      any
      advance of funds from a party other than the owner of the Mortgaged Property
      subject to the Mortgage, directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amount
      required by the Mortgage Loan. As of the related Closing Date, all of the
      Mortgage Loans will have an actual interest paid to date of their related
      Cut-off Date(or later) and will be due for the scheduled monthly payment next
      succeeding the Cut-off Date (or later), as evidenced by a posting to Company's
      servicing collection system. No payment under any Mortgage Loan is delinquent
      as
      of the related Closing Date nor has any scheduled payment been delinquent at
      any
      time during the twelve (12) months prior to the month of the related Closing
      Date. For purposes of this paragraph, a Mortgage Loan will be deemed delinquent
      if any payment due thereunder was not paid by the Mortgagor in the month such
      payment was due;

    

    (d)
      There
      are no defaults by Company in complying with the terms of the Mortgage, 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 escrow funds have been established in an amount
      sufficient to pay for every such escrowed item which remains unpaid and which
      has been assessed but is not yet due and payable;

    

    (e)
      The
      terms of the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage have not been impaired, waived,
      altered or modified in any respect, except by written instruments which have
      been recorded to the extent any such recordation is required by law, or,
      necessary to protect the interest of the Purchaser. No instrument of waiver,
      alteration or modification has been executed except in connection with a
      modification agreement and which modification agreement is part of the Mortgage
      File and the terms of which are reflected in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule,
      and no Mortgagor has been released, in whole or in part, from the terms thereof
      except in connection with an assumption agreement and which assumption agreement
      is part of the Mortgage File and the terms of which are reflected in the related
      Mortgage Loan Schedule; the substance of any such waiver, alteration or
      modification has been approved by the issuer of any related Primary Mortgage
      Insurance Policy and title insurance policy, to the extent required by the
      related policies;

    

    (f)
      The
      Mortgage Note and the Mortgage are 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 the Mortgage Note
      or
      Mortgage unenforceable, in whole or in part, or subject to any right of
      rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense, including the defense of usury,
      and no such right of rescission, set-off, counterclaim or defense has been
      asserted with respect thereto; and as of the related Closing Date the Mortgagor
      was not a debtor in any state or federal bankruptcy or insolvency
      proceeding;

    

    (g)
      All
      buildings or other customarily insured improvements upon the Mortgaged Property
      are insured by a Qualified Insurer, against loss by fire, hazards of extended
      coverage and such other hazards as are provided for in the Fannie Mae or FHLMC
      Guide, as well as all additional requirements set forth in Section 4.10 of
      this
      Agreement. All such standard hazard policies are in full force and effect and
      contain a standard mortgagee clause naming the Company and its successors in
      interest and assigns as loss payee and such clause is still in effect and all
      premiums due thereon have been paid. If required by the Flood Disaster
      Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the Mortgage Loan is covered by a flood
      insurance policy meeting the requirements of the current guidelines of the
      Federal Insurance Administration which policy conforms to Fannie Mae or FHLMC
      requirements, as well as all additional requirements set forth in Section 4.10
      of this Agreement. Such policy was issued by a Qualified Insurer. The Mortgage
      obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain all such insurance at the
      Mortgagor's cost and expense, and on the Mortgagor's failure to do so,
      authorizes the holder of the Mortgage to maintain such insurance at the
      Mortgagor's cost and expense and to seek reimbursement therefor from the
      Mortgagor. Neither the Company (nor any prior originator or servicer of any
      of
      the Mortgage Loans) nor any Mortgagor has engaged in any act or omission which
      has impaired or would impair the coverage of any such policy, the benefits
      of
      the endorsement provided for herein, or the validity and binding effect of
      either;

    

    (h)
      Any
      and all requirements of any federal, state or local law including, without
      limitation, usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, consumer
      credit protection, equal credit opportunity or disclosure laws applicable to
      the
      Mortgage Loan have been complied with in all material respects. None
      of
      the Mortgage Loans are (a) loans subject to 12 CFR Part 226.31, 12 CFR Part
      226.32 or 12 CFR Part 226.34 of Regulation Z, the regulation implementing TILA,
      which implements the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994, as
      amended or (b) classified and/or defined as a “high cost”, "covered", or
“predatory” loan under any other state, federal or local law or regulation or
      ordinance, including, but not limited to, the States of Georgia and North
      Carolina and the City of New York. The
      Company maintains, and shall maintain, evidence of such compliance as required
      by applicable law or regulation and shall make such evidence available for
      inspection at the Company's office during normal business hours upon reasonable
      advance notice; 

    

    (i)
      The
      Mortgage has not been satisfied, canceled or subordinated, in whole or in part,
      or rescinded, and the Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien
      of
      the Mortgage, in whole or in part nor has any instrument been executed that
      would effect any such release, cancellation, subordination or rescission. The
      Company has not waived the performance by the Mortgagor of any action, if the
      Mortgagor’s failure to perform such action would cause the Mortgage Loan to be
      in default, nor has the Company waived any default resulting from any action
      or
      inaction by the Mortgagor;

    

    (j) The
      Mortgage is a valid, subsisting, enforceable and perfected first lien on the
      Mortgaged Property, including all buildings on the Mortgaged Property and all
      installations and mechanical, electrical, plumbing, heating and air conditioning
      systems affixed to such buildings, and all additions, alterations and
      replacements made at any time with respect to the foregoing securing the
      Mortgage Note's original principal balance subject to principles of equity,
      bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws of general application affecting the
      rights of creditors. The Mortgage and the Mortgage Note do not contain any
      evidence of any security interest or other interest or right thereto. Such
      lien
      is free and clear of all adverse claims, liens and encumbrances having priority
      over the first lien of the Mortgage subject only to (1) the lien of
      non-delinquent 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 which are
      acceptable to mortgage lending institutions generally and either (A) which
      are
      referred to in the lender’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator
      or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage
      Loan, or (B) which do not adversely affect the residential use or Appraised
      Value of the Mortgaged Property as set forth in such appraisal, and (3) other
      matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not individually
      or in the aggregate materially interfere with the benefits of the security
      intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or
      marketability of the related Mortgaged Property. Any security agreement, chattel
      mortgage or equivalent document related to and delivered in connection with
      the
      Mortgage Loan establishes and creates a valid, subsisting, enforceable and
      perfected first lien and first priority security interest on the property
      described therein, and the Company has the full right to sell and assign the
      same to the Purchaser;

    

    (k)
      The
      Mortgage Note and the related Mortgage are original and genuine and each is
      the
      legal, valid and binding obligation of the maker thereof, enforceable in all
      respects in accordance with its terms subject to principles of equity,
      bankruptcy, insolvency and other laws of general application affecting the
      rights of creditors, and the Company has taken all action necessary to transfer
      such rights of enforceability to the Purchaser. All parties to the Mortgage
      Note
      and the Mortgage had the legal capacity to enter into the Mortgage Loan and
      to
      execute and deliver the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage. The Mortgage Loan
      Documents are on forms acceptable to Fannie Mae and FHLMC. The Mortgage Note
      and
      the Mortgage have been duly and properly executed by such parties. No fraud,
      error, omission, misrepresentation, negligence or similar occurrence with
      respect to a Mortgage Loan has taken place on the part of Company or the
      Mortgagor, or on the part of any other party involved in the origination or
      servicing of the Mortgage Loan. 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
      improvements 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;

    

    (l)
      The
      Company is the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loan and the indebtedness
      evidenced by the Mortgage Note. Upon the sale of the Mortgage Loan to the
      Purchaser, the Company will retain the Mortgage File or any part thereof with
      respect thereto not delivered to the Purchaser or the Purchaser’s designee in
      trust only for the purpose of servicing and supervising the servicing of the
      Mortgage Loan. Immediately prior to the transfer and assignment to the
      Purchaser, the Mortgage Loan, including the Mortgage Note and the Mortgage,
      were
      not subject to an assignment, sale or pledge to any person other than Purchaser,
      and the Company had good and marketable title to and was the sole owner thereof
      and had full right to transfer and sell the Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser
      free
      and clear of any encumbrance, equity, lien, pledge, charge, claim or security
      interest and has the full right and authority subject to no interest or
      participation of, or agreement with, any other party, to sell and assign the
      Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Agreement and following the sale of the Mortgage
      Loan, the Purchaser will own such Mortgage Loan free and clear of any
      encumbrance, equity, participation interest, lien, pledge, charge, claim or
      security interest. The Company intends to relinquish all rights to possess,
      control and monitor the Mortgage Loan, except for the purposes of servicing
      the
      Mortgage Loan as set forth in this Agreement. After the related Closing Date,
      the Company will not have any right to modify or alter the terms of the sale
      of
      the Mortgage Loan and the Company will not have any obligation or right to
      repurchase the Mortgage Loan or substitute another Mortgage Loan, except as
      provided in this Agreement, or as otherwise agreed to by the Company and the
      Purchaser;

    

    (m)
      Each
      Mortgage Loan is covered by an ALTA lender's title insurance policy or other
      generally acceptable form of policy or insurance acceptable to Fannie Mae or
      FHLMC (including adjustable rate endorsements), issued by a title insurer
      acceptable to Fannie Mae or FHLMC and qualified to do business in the
      jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to
      the
      exceptions contained in (j)(1), (2) and (3) above) the Company, its successors
      and assigns, as to the first priority lien of the Mortgage in the original
      principal amount of the Mortgage Loan and against any loss by reason of the
      invalidity or unenforceability of the lien resulting from the provisions of
      the
      Mortgage providing for adjustment in 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.
      The Company, its successors and assigns, is the sole insured of such lender's
      title insurance policy, such title insurance policy has been duly and validly
      endorsed to the Purchaser or the assignment to the Purchaser of the Company's
      interest therein does not require the consent of or notification to the insurer
      and such lender's title insurance policy is in full force and effect and will
      be
      in full force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated
      by this Agreement. No claims have been made under such lender's title insurance
      policy, and no prior holder or servicer of the related Mortgage, including
      the
      Company, nor any Mortgagor, has done, by act or omission, anything which would
      impair the coverage of such lender's title insurance policy;

    

    (n)
      There
      is no default, breach, violation or event of acceleration existing under the
      Mortgage or the related 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 permitting acceleration; and
      neither the Company, nor any prior mortgagee has waived any default, breach,
      violation or event permitting acceleration;

    

    (o)
      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 to the lien of the related Mortgage;

    

    (p)
      All
      improvements subject to the Mortgage which were considered in determining the
      appraised value of the Mortgaged Property lie wholly within the boundaries
      and
      building restriction lines of the Mortgaged Property (and wholly within the
      project with respect to a condominium unit) and no improvements on adjoining
      properties encroach upon the Mortgaged Property except those which are insured
      against by the title insurance policy referred to in clause (m) above and all
      improvements on the property comply with all applicable zoning and subdivision
      laws and ordinances;

    

    (q)
      Each
      Mortgage Loan was originated by or for the Company pursuant to, and conforms
      with, the Company’s underwriting guidelines attached as Exhibit H hereto. The
      Mortgage Loan bears interest at an adjustable rate (if applicable) as set forth
      in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule, and Monthly Payments under the Mortgage
      Note are due and payable on the first day of each month. The Mortgage contains
      the usual and enforceable provisions of the Company at the time of origination
      for the acceleration of the payment of the unpaid principal amount of the
      Mortgage Loan if the related Mortgaged Property is sold without the prior
      consent of the mortgagee thereunder;

    

    (r)
      The
      Mortgaged Property is not subject to any material damage. At origination of
      the
      Mortgage Loan there was not, since origination of the Mortgage Loan there has
      not been, and there currently is no proceeding pending for the total or partial
      condemnation of the Mortgaged Property. The Company has not received
      notification that any such proceedings are scheduled to commence at a future
      date;

    

    (s)
      The
      related 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, (1) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by
      trustee's sale, and (2) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. There is no homestead
      or other exemption available to the Mortgagor which would interfere with the
      right to sell the Mortgaged Property at a trustee's sale or the right to
      foreclose the Mortgage;

    

    (t)
      If
      the Mortgage constitutes a deed of trust, a trustee, authorized and duly
      qualified if required under applicable law to act as such, has been properly
      designated and currently so serves and is named in the Mortgage, and no fees
      or
      expenses, except as may be required by local law, are or will become payable
      by
      the Purchaser to the trustee under the deed of trust, except in connection
      with
      a trustee's sale or attempted sale after default by the Mortgagor;

    

    (u)
      The
      Mortgage File contains an appraisal of the related Mortgaged Property signed
      prior to the final approval of the mortgage loan application by a Qualified
      Appraiser, approved by the Company, 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 FHLMC and Title XI of the Federal Institutions Reform, Recovery, and
      Enforcement Act of 1989 and the regulations promulgated thereunder, all as
      in
      effect on the date the Mortgage Loan was originated. The appraisal is in a
      form
      acceptable to Fannie Mae or FHLMC;

    

    (v)
      All
      parties which have had any interest in the Mortgage, whether as mortgagee,
      assignee, pledgee or otherwise, are (or, during the period in which they held
      and disposed of such interest, were) (A) in compliance with any and all
      applicable licensing requirements of the laws of the state wherein the Mortgaged
      Property is located, and (B) (1) organized under the laws of such state, or
      (2)
      qualified to do business in such state, or (3) federal savings and loan
      associations or national banks or a Federal Home Loan Bank or savings bank
      having principal offices in such state, or (4) not doing business in such
      state;

    

    (w)
      The
      related 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 above and such
      collateral does not serve as security for any other obligation;

    

    (x)
      The
      Mortgagor has received and has executed, where applicable, all disclosure
      materials required by applicable law with respect to the making of such mortgage
      loans;

    

    (y)
      The
      Mortgage Loan does not contain balloon or "graduated payment" features. Unless
      otherwise indicated on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule, no Mortgage Loan
      is
      subject to a buydown agreement or contains any buydown provision;

    

    (z)
      The
      Mortgagor is not in bankruptcy and, the Mortgagor is not insolvent and the
      Company has no knowledge of any circumstances or conditions with respect to
      the
      Mortgage, the Mortgaged Property, the Mortgagor or the Mortgagor's credit
      standing that could reasonably be expected to cause investors to regard the
      Mortgage Loan as an unacceptable investment, cause the Mortgage Loan to become
      delinquent, or materially adversely affect the value or marketability of the
      Mortgage Loan;

    

    (aa)
      Each
      Mortgage Loan bears interest based upon a thirty (30) day month and a three
      hundred and sixty (360) day year. The Mortgage Loans have an original term
      to
      maturity of not more than thirty (30) years, with interest payable in arrears
      on
      the first day of each month. As to each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, on each
      applicable Adjustment Date, the Mortgage Interest Rate will be adjusted to
      equal
      the sum of the Index, plus the applicable Margin; provided, that the Mortgage
      Interest Rate, on each applicable Adjustment Date, will not increase by more
      than the Initial Rate Cap or Periodic Rate Cap, as applicable. Over the term
      of
      each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Interest Rate will not exceed
      such Mortgage Loan's Lifetime Rate Cap. None of the Mortgage Loans are
“interest-only” Mortgage Loans or “negative amortization” Mortgage Loans. With
      respect to each adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, each Mort-gage Note requires
      a
      monthly payment which is suffi-cient (a) during the period prior to the first
      adjust-ment to the Mortgage Interest Rate, to fully amortize the original
      principal balance over the original term thereof and to pay interest at the
      related Mortgage Interest Rate, and (b) during the period following each
      Adjust-ment Date, to fully amortize the outstanding principal balance as of
      the
      first day of such period over the then remaining term of such Mortgage Note
      and
      to pay interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate. With respect to each
      adjustable rate Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Note provides that when the Mortgage
      Interest Rate changes on an Adjustment Date, the then outstanding principal
      balance will be reamortized over the remaining life of the Mortgage Loan. No
      Mortgage Loan contains terms or provi-sions which would result in negative
      amortization. None of the Mortgage Loans contain a conversion feature which
      would cause the Mortgage Loan interest rate to convert to a fixed interest
      rate.
      None of the Mortgage Loans are considered agricultural loans;

    (hh) In
      the
      event the Mortgage Loan had an LTV at origination greater than 80.00%, the
      excess of the principal balance of the Mortgage Loan over 75.0% of the Appraised
      Value of the Mortgaged Property with respect to a Refinanced Mortgage Loan,
      or
      the lesser of the Appraised Value or the purchase price of the Mortgaged
      Property with respect to a purchase money Mortgage Loan was insured as to
      payment defaults by a Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy issued by a Qualified
      Insurer. No Mortgage Loan has an LTV over 95%. All provisions of such Primary
      Mortgage Insurance Policy have been and are being complied with, such policy
      is
      in full force and effect, and all premiums due thereunder have been paid. No
      Mortgage Loan requires payment of such premiums, in whole or in part, by the
      Purchaser. No action, inaction, or event has occurred and no state of facts
      exists that has, or will result in the exclusion from, denial of, or defense
      to
      coverage. Any Mortgage Loan subject to a Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy
      obligates the Mortgagor thereunder to maintain the Primary Mortgage Insurance
      Policy, subject to state and federal law, and to pay all premiums and charges
      in
      connection therewith. No action has been taken or failed to be taken, on or
      prior to the Closing Date which has resulted or will result in an exclusion
      from, denial of, or defense to coverage under any Primary Mortgage Insurance
      Policy (including, without limitation, any exclusions, denials or defenses
      which
      would limit or reduce the availability of the timely payment of the full amount
      of the loss otherwise due thereunder to the insured) whether arising out of
      actions, representations, errors, omissions, negligence, or fraud of the Company
      or the Mortgagor, or for any other reason under such coverage; The mortgage
      interest rate for the Mortgage Loan as set forth on the related Mortgage Loan
      Schedule is net of any such insurance premium. None of the Mortgage Loans are
      subject to “lender-paid” mortgage insurance;

     

    (ii) The
      Assignment is in recordable form and is acceptable for recording under the
      laws
      of the jurisdiction in which the Mortgaged Property is located;

    

    (jj) Unless
      otherwise indicated on the related Mortgage Loan Schedule, none of the Mortgage
      Loans are secured by an interest in a leasehold estate. The Mortgaged Property
      is located in the state identified in the related Mortgage Loan Schedule and
      consists of a single parcel of real property with a detached single family
      residence erected thereon, or a townhouse, or a two-to four-family dwelling,
      or
      an individual condominium unit in a condominium project, or an individual unit
      in a planned unit development or a de minimis planned unit development,
      provided, however, that no residence or dwelling is a single parcel of real
      property with a manufactured home not affixed to a permanent foundation, or
      a
      mobile home. Any
      non-warrantable condominium unit, condominium unit or planned unit development
      conforms with the Company’s underwriting guidelines. As
      of the
      date of origination, no portion of any Mortgaged Property was used for
      commercial purposes, and since the Origination Date, no portion of any Mortgaged
      Property has been, or currently is, used for commercial purposes;

    

    (kk) Payments
      on the Mortgage Loan commenced no more than sixty (60) days after the funds
      were
      disbursed in connection with the Mortgage Loan. The Mortgage Note is payable
      on
      the first day of each month in monthly installments of principal and interest,
      which installments are subject to change due to the adjustments to the Mortgage
      Interest Rate on each Adjustment Date, with interest calculated and payable
      in
      arrears. Each of the Mortgage Loans will amortize fully by the stated maturity
      date, over an original term of not more than thirty years from commencement
      of
      amortization;

    

    (ll) As
      of the
      Closing Date of the Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage Property was lawfully occupied
      under applicable law, and 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;

    

    (mm) 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 the Company has not received any notice of any
      environmental hazard on 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;

    

    (nn) The
      Mortgagor has not notified the Company, and the Company has no knowledge of
      any
      relief requested or allowed to the Mortgagor under the Soldiers' and Sailors'
      Civil Relief Act of 1940;

    

    (oo)
       No
      Mortgage Loan is a construction or rehabilitation Mortgage Loan or was made
      to
      facilitate the trade-in or exchange of a Mortgaged Property;

    

    (pp) The
      Mortgagor for each Mortgage Loan is a natural person;

    

    (qq) None
      of
      the Mortgage Loans are Co-op Loans; 

    

    (rr)
       With
      respect to each Mortgage Loan that has a prepayment penalty feature, each such
      prepayment penalty is enforceable and will be enforced by the Company and each
      prepayment penalty is permitted pursuant to federal, state and local law. No
      Mortgage Loan will impose a prepayment penalty for a term in excess of five
      years from the date such Mortgage Loan was originated. Except as otherwise
      set
      forth on the Mortgage Loan Schedule, with respect to each Mortgage Loan that
      contains a prepayment penalty, such prepayment penalty is at least equal to
      the
      lesser of (A) the maximum amount permitted under applicable law and (B) six
      months interest at the related Mortgage Interest Rate on the amount prepaid
      in
      excess of 20% of the original principal balance of such Mortgage
      Loan;

    

    (ss)
       With
      respect to each Mortgage Loan either (i) the fair market value of the Mortgaged
      Property securing such Mortgage Loan was at least equal to 80 percent of the
      original principal balance of such Mortgage Loan at the time such Mortgage
      Loan
      was originated or (ii) (a) the Mortgage Loan is only secured by the Mortgage
      Property and (b) substantially all of the proceeds of such Mortgage Loan were
      used to acquire or to improve or protect the Mortgage Property. For the purposes
      of the preceding sentence, if the Mortgage Loan has been significantly modified
      other than as a result of a default or a reasonable foreseeable default, the
      modified Mortgage Loan will be viewed as having been originated on the date
      of
      the modification;

    

    (tt)
      The
      Mortgage Loan was originated by a mortgagee approved by the Secretary of Housing
      and Urban Development pursuant to sections 203 and 211 of the National Housing
      Act, a savings and loan association, a savings bank, a commercial bank, credit
      union, insurance company or similar institution which is supervised and examined
      by a federal or state authority; 

    

    (uu)
      None
      of the Mortgage Loans are simple interest Mortgage Loans and none of the
      Mortgaged Properties are timeshares; 

    

    (vv)
      All
      of the terms of the Mortgage pertaining to interest rate adjustments, payment
      adjustments and adjustments of the outstanding principal balance are
      enforceable, all such adjustments have been properly made, including the mailing
      of required notices, and such adjustments do not and will not affect the
      priority of the Mortgage lien. With respect to each Mortgage Loan which has
      passed its initial Adjustment Date, Company has performed an audit of the
      Mortgage Loan to determine whether all interest rate adjustments have been
      made
      in accordance with the terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage; and

    

    (ww)
      Each
      Mortgage Note, each Mortgage, each Assignment and any other documents required
      pursuant to this Agreement to be delivered to the Purchaser or its designee,
      or
      its assignee for each Mortgage Loan, have been, on or before the related Closing
      Date, delivered to the Purchaser or its designee, or its assignee.

    

    Section
      3.03 Repurchase;
      Substitution.

    

    It
      is
      understood and agreed that the representations and warranties set forth in
      Sections 3.01 and 3.02 shall survive the sale of the Mortgage Loans and delivery
      of the Mortgage Loan Documents to the Purchaser, or its designee, and shall
      inure to the benefit of the Purchaser, notwithstanding any restrictive or
      qualified endorsement on any Mortgage Note or Assignment or the examination,
      or
      lack of examination, of any Mortgage File. Upon discovery by either the Company
      or the Purchaser of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and
      warranties which materially and adversely affects the value of the Mortgage
      Loans or the interest of the Purchaser in any Mortgage Loan, the party
      discovering such breach shall give prompt written notice to the other. The
      Company shall have a period of sixty (60) days from the earlier of its discovery
      or its receipt of notice of any such breach within which to correct or cure
      such
      breach. The Company hereby covenants and agrees that if any such breach is
      not
      corrected or cured within such sixty day period, the Company shall, at the
      Purchaser's option and not later than ninety (90) days of its discovery or
      its
      receipt of notice of such breach, repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the
      Repurchase Price or, with the Purchaser's prior consent and at Purchaser’s sole
      option, substitute a Mortgage Loan as provided below. In the event that any
      such
      breach shall involve any representation or warranty set forth in Section 3.01,
      and such breach is not cured within sixty (60) days of the earlier of either
      discovery by or notice to the Company of such breach, all Mortgage Loans shall,
      at the option of the Purchaser, be repurchased by the Company at the Repurchase
      Price. Any such repurchase shall be accomplished by wire transfer of immediately
      available funds to Purchaser in the amount of the Repurchase Price.

    

    If
      the
      Company is required to repurchase any Mortgage Loan pursuant to this Section
      3.03, the Company may, with the Purchaser's prior consent and at Purchaser’s
      sole option, within ninety (90) days from the related Closing Date, remove
      such
      defective Mortgage Loan from the terms of this Agreement and substitute another
      mortgage loan for such defective Mortgage Loan, in lieu of repurchasing such
      defective Mortgage Loan. Any substitute Mortgage Loan is subject to Purchaser
      acceptability. Any substituted Loans will comply with the representations and
      warranties set forth in this Agreement as of the substitution date

    

    The
      Company shall amend the related Mortgage Loan Schedule to reflect the withdrawal
      of the removed Mortgage Loan from this Agreement and the substitution of such
      substitute Mortgage Loan therefor. Upon such amendment, the Purchaser shall
      review the Mortgage File delivered to it relating to the substitute Mortgage
      Loan. In the event of such a substitution, accrued interest on the substitute
      Mortgage Loan for the month in which the substitution occurs and any Principal
      Prepayments made thereon during such month shall be the property of the
      Purchaser and accrued interest for such month on the Mortgage Loan for which
      the
      substitution is made and any Principal Prepayments made thereon during such
      month shall be the property of the Company. The principal payment on a
      substitute Mortgage Loan due on the Due Date in the month of substitution shall
      be the property of the Company and the principal payment on the Mortgage Loan
      for which the substitution is made due on such date shall be the property of
      the
      Purchaser.

    

    For
      any
      month in which the Company is permitted to substitute one or more substitute
      Mortgage Loans, the Company will determine the amount (if any) by which the
      aggregate Stated Principal Balance (after application of the principal portion
      of all scheduled payments due in the month of substitution) of all the
      substitute Mortgage Loans in the month of substitution is less then the
      aggregate Stated Principal Balance (after application of the principal portion
      of the scheduled payment due in the month of substitution) of the such replaced
      Mortgage Loan. An amount equal to the aggregate of such deficiencies described
      in the preceding sentence for any Remittance Date shall be deposited into the
      Custodial Account by the Company on the related Determination Date in the month
      following the calendar month during which the substitution occurred.

    

    It
      is
      understood and agreed that the obligation of the Company set forth in this
      Section 3.03 to cure, repurchase or substitute for a defective Mortgage Loan,
      and to indemnify Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.01, constitute the sole
      remedies of the Purchaser respecting a breach of the foregoing representations
      and warranties. If the Company fails to repurchase or substitute for a defective
      Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Section 3.03, or fails to cure a defective
      Mortgage Loan to Purchaser's reasonable satisfaction in accordance with this
      Section 3.03, or to indemnify Purchaser pursuant to Section 8.01, that failure
      shall be an Event of Default and the Purchaser shall be entitled to pursue
      all
      remedies available in this Agreement as a result thereof. No provision of this
      paragraph shall affect the rights of the Purchaser to terminate this Agreement
      for cause, as set forth in Sections 10.01 and 11.01.

    

    Any
      cause
      of action against the Company relating to or arising out of the breach of any
      representations and warranties made in Sections 3.01 and 3.02 shall accrue
      as to
      any Mortgage Loan upon (i) the earlier of discovery of such breach by the
      Company or notice thereof by the Purchaser to the Company, (ii) failure by
      the
      Company to cure such breach or repurchase such Mortgage Loan as specified above,
      and (iii) demand upon the Company by the Purchaser for compliance with this
      Agreement.

    

    In
      the
      event that any Mortgage Loan is held by a REMIC, notwithstanding any contrary
      provision of this Agreement, with respect to any Mortgage Loan that is not
      in
      default or as to which no default is imminent, no substitution pursuant to
      Subsection 3.03 shall be made after the applicable REMIC's "start up day" (as
      defined in Section 860G(a) (9) of the Code), unless the Company has obtained
      an
      Opinion of Counsel to the effect that such substitution will not (i) result
      in
      the imposition of taxes on "prohibited transactions" of such REMIC (as defined
      in Section 860F of the Code) or otherwise subject the REMIC to tax, or (ii)
      cause the REMIC to fail to qualify as a REMIC at any time.

      3.04 Representations
      and Warranties of the Purchaser.

    ARTICLE
      IV

    

    ADMINISTRATION
      AND SERVICING OF MORTGAGE LOANS

    

    Section
      4.01 Company
      to Act as Servicer.

    

    The
      Company, as independent contract servicer, shall service and administer the
      Mortgage Loans in accordance with this Agreement and the related Term Sheet
      and
      with Accepted Servicing Practices, and shall have full power and authority,
      acting alone, to do or cause to be done any and all things in connection with
      such servicing and administration which the Company may deem necessary or
      desirable and consistent with the terms of this Agreement and the related Term
      Sheet and with Accepted Servicing Practices and exercise the same care that
      it
      customarily employs for its own account. Except as set forth in this Agreement
      and the related Term Sheet, the Company shall service the Mortgage Loans in
      strict compliance with the servicing provisions of the Fannie Mae Guides
      (special servicing option), which include, but are not limited to, provisions
      regarding the liquidation of Mortgage Loans, the collection of Mortgage Loan
      payments, the payment of taxes, insurance and other charges, the maintenance
      of
      hazard insurance with a Qualified Insurer, the maintenance of mortgage
      impairment insurance, the maintenance of fidelity bond and errors and omissions
      insurance, inspections, the restoration of Mortgaged Property, the maintenance
      of Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies, insurance claims, the title, management
      and disposition of REO Property, permitted withdrawals with respect to REO
      Property, liquidation reports, and reports of foreclosures and abandonments
      of
      Mortgaged Property, the transfer of Mortgaged Property, the release of Mortgage
      Files, annual statements, and examination of records and facilities. In the
      event of any conflict, inconsistency or discrepancy between any of the servicing
      provisions of this Agreement and the related Term Sheet and any of the servicing
      provisions of the Fannie Mae Guides, the provisions of this Agreement and the
      related Term Sheet shall control and be binding upon the Purchaser and the
      Company. 

    

    Consistent
      with the terms of this Agreement and the related Term Sheet, the Company may
      waive, modify or vary any term of any Mortgage Loan or consent to the
      postponement of any such term or in any manner grant indulgence to any Mortgagor
      if in the Company's reasonable and prudent determination such waiver,
      modification, postponement or indulgence is not materially adverse to the
      Purchaser, provided, however, that unless the Company has obtained the prior
      written consent of the Purchaser, the Company shall not permit any modification
      with respect to any Mortgage Loan that would change the Mortgage Interest Rate,
      defer for more than ninety days or forgive any payment of principal or interest,
      reduce or increase the outstanding principal balance (except for actual payments
      of principal) or change the final maturity date on such Mortgage Loan. In the
      event of any such modification which has been agreed to in writing by the
      Purchaser and which permits the deferral of interest or principal payments
      on
      any Mortgage Loan, the Company shall, on the Business Day immediately preceding
      the Remittance Date in any month in which any such principal or interest payment
      has been deferred, deposit in the Custodial Account from its own funds, in
      accordance with Section 4.04, the difference between (a) such month's principal
      and one month's interest at the Mortgage Loan Remittance Rate on the unpaid
      principal balance of such Mortgage Loan and (b) the amount paid by the
      Mortgagor. The Company shall be entitled to reimbursement for such advances
      to
      the same extent as for all other advances pursuant to Section 4.05. Without
      limiting the generality of the foregoing, the Company shall continue, and is
      hereby authorized and empowered, to prepare, execute and deliver, all
      instruments of satisfaction or cancellation, or of partial or full release,
      discharge and all other comparable instruments, with respect to the Mortgage
      Loans and with respect to the Mortgaged Properties. Notwithstanding anything
      herein to the contrary, the Company may not enter into a forbearance agreement
      or similar arrangement with respect to any Mortgage Loan which runs more than
      180 days after the first delinquent Due Date. Any such agreement shall be
      approved by Purchaser and, if required, by the Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy
      insurer, if required. 

    

    Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained in this Agreement, the Company shall not
      make
      or permit any modification, waiver or amendment of any term of any Mortgage
      Loan
      that would cause any REMIC created under the trust agreement pursuant to any
      Reconstitution to fail to qualify as a REMIC or result in the imposition of
      any
      tax under Section 860F(a) or Section 860G(d) of the Code.

    

    The
      Company shall not permit the creation of any “interests” (within the meaning of
      Section 860G of the Code) in any REMIC. The Company shall not enter into any
      arrangement by which a REMIC will receive a fee or other compensation for
      services nor permit a REMIC to receive any income from assets other than
“qualified mortgages” as defined in Section 860G(a)(3) of the Code or “permitted
      investments” as defined in Section 860G(a)(5) of the Code.

    

    In
      servicing and administering the Mortgage Loans, the Company shall employ
      Accepted Servicing Practices, giving due consideration to the Purchaser's
      reliance on the Company. Unless a different time period is stated in this
      Agreement or the related Term Sheet, Purchaser shall be deemed to have given
      consent in connection with a particular matter if Purchaser does not
      affirmatively grant or deny consent within five (5) Business Days from the
      date
      Purchaser receives a second written request for consent for such matter from
      Company as servicer. 

    

    The
      Mortgage Loans may be subserviced by a Subservicer on behalf of the Company
      provided that the Subservicer is an entity that engages in the business of
      servicing loans, and in either case shall be authorized to transact business,
      and licensed to service mortgage loans, in the state or states where the related
      Mortgaged Properties it is to service are situated, if and to the extent
      required by applicable law to enable the Subservicer to perform its obligations
      hereunder and under the Subservicing Agreement, and in either case shall be
      a
      FHLMC or Fannie Mae approved mortgage servicer in good standing, and no event
      has occurred, including but not limited to a change in insurance coverage,
      which
      would make it unable to comply with the eligibility requirements for lenders
      imposed by Fannie Mae or for seller/servicers imposed by Fannie Mae or FHLMC,
      or
      which would require notification to Fannie Mae or FHLMC. In addition, each
      Subservicer will obtain and preserve its qualifications to do business as a
      foreign corporation and its licenses to service mortgage loans, in each
      jurisdiction in which such qualifications and/or licenses are or shall be
      necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement, or
      any
      of the Mortgage Loans and to perform or cause to be performed its duties under
      the related Subservicing Agreement. The Company may perform any of its servicing
      responsibilities hereunder or may cause the Subservicer to perform any such
      servicing responsibilities on its behalf, but the use by the Company of the
      Subservicer shall not release the Company from any of its obligations hereunder
      and the Company shall remain responsible hereunder for all acts and omissions
      of
      the Subservicer as fully as if such acts and omissions were those of the
      Company. The Company shall pay all fees and expenses of the Subservicer from
      its
      own funds, and the Subservicer's fee shall not exceed the Servicing Fee. Company
      shall notify Purchaser promptly in writing upon the appointment of any
      Subservicer.

    

    At
      the
      cost and expense of the Company, without any right of reimbursement from the
      Custodial Account, the Company shall be entitled to terminate the rights and
      responsibilities of the Subservicer and arrange for any servicing
      responsibilities to be performed by a successor subservicer meeting the
      requirements in the preceding paragraph, provided, however, that nothing
      contained herein shall be deemed to prevent or prohibit the Company, at the
      Company's option, from electing to service the related Mortgage Loans itself.
      In
      the event that the Company's responsibilities and duties under this Agreement
      are terminated pursuant to Section 4.13, 8.04, 9.01 or 10.01 and if requested
      to
      do so by the Purchaser, the Company shall at its own cost and expense terminate
      the rights and responsibilities of the Subservicer effective as of the date
      of
      termination of the Company. The Company shall pay all fees, expenses or
      penalties necessary in order to terminate the rights and responsibilities of
      the
      Subservicer from the Company's own funds without reimbursement from the
      Purchaser.

    

    Notwithstanding
      any of the provisions of this Agreement relating to agreements or arrangements
      between the Company and the Subservicer or any reference herein to actions
      taken
      through the Subservicer or otherwise, the Company shall not be relieved of
      its
      obligations to the Purchaser and shall be obligated to the same extent and
      under
      the same terms and conditions as if it alone were servicing and administering
      the Mortgage Loans. The Company shall be entitled to enter into an agreement
      with the Subservicer for indemnification of the Company by the Subservicer
      and
      nothing contained in this Agreement shall be deemed to limit or modify such
      indemnification. The Company will indemnify and hold Purchaser harmless from
      any
      loss, liability or expense arising out of its use of a Subservicer to perform
      any of its servicing duties, responsibilities and obligations
      hereunder.

    

    Any
      Subservicing Agreement and any other transactions or services relating to the
      Mortgage Loans involving the Subservicer shall be deemed to be between the
      Subservicer and Company alone, and the Purchaser shall have no obligations,
      duties or liabilities with respect to the Subservicer including no obligation,
      duty or liability of Purchaser to pay the Subservicer's fees and expenses.
      For
      purposes of distributions and advances by the Company pursuant to this
      Agreement, the Company shall be deemed to have received a payment on a Mortgage
      Loan when the Subservicer has received such payment.

    

    Section
      4.02 Collection
      of Mortgage Loan Payments.

    

    Continuously
      from the date hereof until the date each Mortgage Loan ceases to be subject
      to
      this Agreement, the Company will proceed diligently to collect all payments
      due
      under each Mortgage Loan when the same shall become due and payable and shall,
      to the extent such procedures shall be consistent with this Agreement, Accepted
      Servicing Practices, and the terms and provisions of any related Primary
      Mortgage Insurance Policy, follow such collection procedures as it follows
      with
      respect to mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans and held for its
      own
      account. Further, the Company will take special care in ascertaining and
      estimating annual escrow payments, and all other charges that, as provided
      in
      the Mortgage, will become due and payable, so that the installments payable
      by
      the Mortgagors will be sufficient to pay such charges as and when they become
      due and payable.

    

    In
      no
      event will the Company waive its right to any prepayment penalty or premium
      without the prior written consent of Purchaser and Company will use diligent
      efforts to collect same when due except as otherwise provided in the prepayment
      penalty provisions provided in the Mortgage Loan Documents. 

    

    Section
      4.03 Realization
      Upon Defaulted Mortgage

    

    The
      Company shall use its best efforts, consistent with the procedures that the
      Company would use in servicing loans for its own account, consistent with
      Accepted Servicing Practices, any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policies and the
      best interest of Purchaser, to foreclose upon or otherwise comparably convert
      the ownership of properties securing such of the Mortgage Loans as come into
      and
      continue in default and as to which no satisfactory arrangements can be made
      for
      collection of delinquent payments pursuant to Section 4.01. Foreclosure or
      comparable proceedings shall be initiated within ninety (90) days of default
      for
      Mortgaged Properties for which no satisfactory arrangements can be made for
      collection of delinquent payments, subject to state and federal law and
      regulation. The Company shall use its best efforts to realize upon defaulted
      Mortgage Loans in such manner as will maximize the receipt of principal and
      interest by the Purchaser, taking into account, among other things, the timing
      of foreclosure proceedings. The foregoing is subject to the provisions that,
      in
      any case in which a Mortgaged Property shall have suffered damage, the Company
      shall not be required to expend its own funds toward the restoration of such
      property unless it shall determine in its discretion (i) that such restoration
      will increase the proceeds of liquidation of the related Mortgage Loan to the
      Purchaser after reimbursement to itself for such expenses, and (ii) that such
      expenses will be recoverable by the Company through Insurance Proceeds or
      Liquidation Proceeds from the related Mortgaged Property, as contemplated in
      Section 4.05. Company shall obtain prior approval of Purchaser as to repair
      or
      restoration expenses in excess of ten thousand dollars ($10,000). The Company
      shall notify the Purchaser in writing of the commencement of foreclosure
      proceedings and not less than 5 days prior to the acceptance or rejection of
      any
      offer of reinstatement. The Company shall be responsible for all costs and
      expenses incurred by it in any such proceedings or functions; provided, however,
      that it shall be entitled to reimbursement thereof from the related property,
      as
      contemplated in Section 4.05. Notwithstanding anything to the contrary contained
      herein, in connection with a foreclosure or acceptance of a deed in lieu of
      foreclosure, in the event the Company has reasonable cause to believe that
      a
      Mortgaged Property is contaminated by hazardous or toxic substances or wastes,
      or if the Purchaser otherwise requests an environmental inspection or review
      of
      such Mortgaged Property, such an inspection or review is to be conducted by
      a
      qualified inspector at the Purchaser's expense. Upon completion of the
      inspection, the Company shall promptly provide the Purchaser with a written
      report of the environmental inspection. After reviewing the environmental
      inspection report, the Purchaser shall determine how the Company shall proceed
      with respect to the Mortgaged Property. 

    

    Notwithstanding
      anything to the contrary contained herein, the Purchaser may, at the Purchaser's
      sole option, terminate the Company as servicer of any Mortgage Loan which
      becomes ninety (90) days or greater delinquent in payment of a scheduled Monthly
      Payment, without payment of any termination fee with respect thereto, provided
      that the Company shall on the date said termination takes effect be reimbursed
      for any unreimbursed Monthly Advances of the Company's funds made pursuant
      to
      Section 5.03 and any unreimbursed Servicing Advances and Servicing Fees in
      each
      case relating to the Mortgage Loan underlying such delinquent Mortgage Loan
      notwithstanding anything to the contrary set forth in Section 4.05. In the
      event
      of any such termination, the provisions of Section 11.01 hereof shall apply
      to
      said termination and the transfer of servicing responsibilities with respect
      to
      such delinquent Mortgage Loan to the Purchaser or its designee.

    

    If
      a
      REMIC election has been made with respect to the arrangement under which the
      Mortgage Loans and REO Property are held, the Company shall not take any action,
      cause the REMIC to take any action or fail to take (or fail to cause to be
      taken) any action that, under the REMIC Provisions, if taken or not taken,
      as
      the case may be, could (i) endanger the status of the REMIC as a REMIC or (ii)
      result in the imposition of a tax upon the REMIC (including but not limited
      to
      the tax on “prohibited transactions” as defined Section 860G(a)(2) of the Code
      and the tax on “contributions” to a REMIC set forth in Section 860(D) of the
      Code) unless the Company has received an Opinion of Counsel (at the expense
      of
      the party seeking to take such action) to the effect that the contemplated
      action will not endanger such REMIC status or result in the imposition of any
      such tax.

    

    Section
      4.04 Establishment
      of Custodial Accounts; Deposits in Custodial Accounts.

    

    The
      Company shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant
      to
      each Mortgage Loan separate and apart from any of its own funds and general
      assets and shall establish and maintain one or more Custodial Accounts. The
      Custodial Account shall be an Eligible Account. Funds shall be deposited in
      the
      Custodial Account within 48 hours of receipt, and shall at all times be insured
      by the FDIC up to the FDIC insurance limits, or must be invested in Permitted
      Investments for the benefit of the Purchaser. Funds deposited in the Custodial
      Account may be drawn on by the Company in accordance with Section 4.05. The
      creation of any Custodial Account shall be evidenced by a letter agreement
      in

      be furnished to the Purchaser on the Closing Date, and upon the request of any
      subsequent Purchaser.

    

    The
      Company shall deposit in the Custodial Account on a daily basis, and retain
      therein the following payments and collections received or made by it subsequent
      to the Cut-off Date, or received by it prior to the Cut-off Date but allocable
      to a period subsequent thereto, other than in respect of principal and interest
      on the Mortgage Loans due on or before the Cut-off Date:

    

    (i) all

      Loan Remittance Rate;

    

    (iii)
       all
      Liquidation Proceeds;

    

    (iv)
       any
      amounts required to be deposited by the Company in connection with any REO
      Property pursuant to Section 4.13 and in connection therewith, the Company
      shall
      provide the Purchaser with written detail itemizing all of such
      amounts;

    

    (v)
       all
      Insurance Proceeds including amounts required to be deposited pursuant to
      Sections 4.08, 4.10 and 4.11, other than proceeds to be held in the Escrow
      Account and applied to the restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property
      or
      released to the Mortgagor in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices,
      the
      Mortgage Loan Documents or applicable law;

    

    (vi)
       all
      Condemnation Proceeds affecting any Mortgaged Property which are not released
      to

      documents or applicable law;

    

    (vii)
       any
      Monthly Advances;

    

    (viii)
       with
      respect to each full or partial Principal Prepayment, any Prepayment Interest
      Shortfalls, to the extent of the Company’s aggregate Servicing Fee received with
      respect to the related Prepayment Period;

    

    (ix)
       any
      amounts required to be deposited by the Company pursuant to Section 4.10 in
      connection with the deductible clause in any blanket hazard insurance policy,
      such deposit shall be made from the Company's own funds, without reimbursement
      therefor; and

    

    (x)
       any
      amounts required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section
      4.01, 4.13 or 6.02.

    

    The
      foregoing requirements for deposit in the Custodial Account shall be exclusive,
      it being understood and agreed that, without limiting the generality of the
      foregoing, payments in the nature of late payment charges and assumption fees,
      to the extent permitted by Section 6.01, need not be deposited by the Company
      in
      the Custodial Account. Any interest paid on funds deposited in the Custodial
      Account by the depository institution shall accrue to the benefit of the Company
      and the Company shall be entitled to retain and withdraw such interest from
      the
      Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.05 (iv). The Purchaser shall not be
      responsible for any losses suffered with respect to investment of funds in
      the
      Custodial Account.

    

    

    Section
      4.05 Permitted
      Withdrawals From the Custodial Account.

    

    The
      Company may, from time to time, withdraw from the Custodial Account for the
      following purposes:

    

    (i) to
      make
      payments to the Purchaser in the amounts and in the manner provided for in
      Section 5.01;

    

    (ii)
       to
      reimburse itself for Monthly Advances, the Company's right to reimburse itself
      pursuant to this subclause (ii) being limited to amounts received on the related
      Mortgage Loan which represent late collections (net of the related Servicing
      Fees) of principal and/or interest respecting (or
      to amounts received on the related Mortgage Loan as a whole if the Monthly
      Advance is made due to a shortfall in a Monthly Payment made by a Mortgagor
      entitled to relief under the Soldiers and Sailors Civil Relief Act of 1940)
      respecting which
      any
      such advance was made, it being understood that, in the case of such
      reimbursement, the Company's right thereto shall be prior to the rights of
      the
      Purchaser, except that, where the Company is required to repurchase a Mortgage
      Loan, pursuant to Section 3.03, the Company's right to such reimbursement shall
      be subsequent to the payment to the Purchaser of the Repurchase Price pursuant
      to such Section and all other amounts required to be paid to the Purchaser
      with
      respect to such Mortgage Loan;

    

    (iii)

      in
      the Custodial Account (all such interest to be withdrawn monthly not later
      than
      each Remittance Date), and (b) the Servicing Fee from that portion of any
      payment or recovery as to interest with respect to a particular Mortgage
      Loan;

    

    (v) to
      pay to
      itself with respect to each Mortgage Loan that has been repurchased pursuant
      to
      Section 3.03 all amounts received thereon and not distributed as of the date
      on

      in Escrow Accounts.

    

    The
      Company shall segregate and hold all funds collected and received pursuant

      each Mortgage Loan which constitute Escrow Payments separate and apart from
      any
      of its own funds and general assets and shall establish and maintain one or
      more
      Escrow Accounts. The Escrow Account shall be an Eligible Account. Funds
      deposited in each Escrow Account shall at all times be insured in a manner
      to
      provide maximum insurance under the insurance limitations of the FDIC, or must
      be invested in Permitted Investments. Funds
      deposited in the Escrow Account may be drawn on by the Company in accordance
      with Section 4.07. The creation of any Escrow Account shall be evidenced by
      a
      letter agreement in the form shown in Exhibit C. The original of such letter
      agreement shall be furnished to the Purchaser on the Closing Date, and upon
      request to any subsequent purchaser.

      Company shall deposit in the Escrow Account or Accounts on a daily basis, and
      retain therein:

    

    (i) all
      Escrow Payments collected on account of the Mortgage Loans, for the purpose
      of
      effecting timely payment of any such items as required under the terms of this
      Agreement;

    

    (ii) all
      Insurance Proceeds which are to be applied to the restoration or repair of
      any
      Mortgaged Property; and

    

    (iii) all
      Servicing Advances for Mortgagors whose Escrow Payments are insufficient to
      cover escrow disbursements.

    

    The
      Company shall make withdrawals from the Escrow Account only to effect such
      payments as are required under this Agreement, and for such other purposes
      as
      shall be as set forth or in accordance with Section 4.07. The Company shall
      be
      entitled to retain any interest paid on funds deposited in the Escrow Account
      by
      the depository institution other than interest on escrowed funds required by
      law
      to be paid to the Mortgagor and, to the extent required by law, the Company
      shall pay interest on escrowed funds to the Mortgagor notwithstanding that
      the
      Escrow Account is non-interest bearing or that interest paid thereon is
      insufficient for such purposes. The
      Purchaser shall not be responsible for any losses suffered with respect to
      investment of funds in the Escrow Account.

    

    

    Section
      4.07 Permitted
      Withdrawals From Escrow Account.

    

    Withdrawals
      from the Escrow Account may be made by Company only:

    

    (i) to
      effect
      timely payments of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates, Primary
      Mortgage Insurance Policy premiums, if applicable, fire and hazard insurance
      premiums, condominium assessments and comparable items;

    

    (ii) to
      reimburse Company for any Servicing Advance made by Company with respect to
      a
      related Mortgage Loan but only from amounts received on the related Mortgage
      Loan which represent late payments or collections of Escrow Payments
      thereunder;

    

    (iii) to
      refund
      to the Mortgagor any funds as may be determined to be overages;

    

    (iv) for
      transfer to the Custodial Account in accordance with the terms of this
      Agreement;

    

    (v) for
      application to restoration or repair of the Mortgaged Property;

    

    (vi) to
      pay to
      the Company, or to the Mortgagor to the extent required by law, any interest
      paid on the funds deposited in the Escrow Account;

    

    (vii)
       to
      clear
      and terminate the Escrow Account on the termination of this Agreement. As part
      of its servicing duties, the Company shall pay to the Mortgagors interest on
      funds in Escrow Account, to the extent required by law, and to the extent that
      interest earned on funds in the Escrow Account is insufficient, shall pay such
      interest from its own funds, without any reimbursement therefor;
      and

    

    (viii)
       to
      pay to
      the Mortgagors or other parties Insurance Proceeds deposited in accordance
      with
      Section 4.06.

    

    Section
      4.08 Payment
      of Taxes, Insurance and Other Charges;
      Maintenance of Primary Mortgage Insurance
      Policies; Collections Thereunder.

     

    With
      respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Company shall maintain accurate records
      reflecting the status of ground rents, taxes, assessments, water rates and
      other
      charges which are or may become a lien upon the Mortgaged Property and the
      status of primary mortgage insurance premiums and fire and hazard insurance
      coverage and shall obtain, from time to time, all bills for the payment of
      such
      charges, including renewal premiums and shall effect payment thereof prior
      to
      the applicable penalty or termination date and at a time appropriate for
      securing maximum discounts allowable, employing for such purpose deposits of
      the
      Mortgagor in the Escrow Account which shall have been estimated and accumulated
      by the Company in amounts sufficient for such purposes, as allowed under the
      terms of the Mortgage or applicable law. To the extent that the Mortgage does
      not provide for Escrow Payments, the Company shall determine that any such
      payments are made by the Mortgagor at the time they first become due. The
      Company assumes full responsibility for the timely payment of all such bills
      and
      shall effect timely payments of all such bills irrespective of the Mortgagor's
      faithful performance in the payment of same or the making of the Escrow Payments
      and shall make advances from its own funds to effect such payments.

    

    The
      Company will maintain in full force and effect Primary Mortgage Insurance
      Policies issued by a Qualified Insurer with respect to each Mortgage Loan for
      which such coverage is herein required. Such coverage will be terminated only
      with the approval of Purchaser, or as required by applicable law or regulation.
      The Company will not cancel or refuse to renew any Primary Mortgage Insurance
      Policy in effect on the Closing Date that is required to be kept in force under
      this Agreement unless a replacement Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy for such
      canceled or nonrenewed policy is obtained from and maintained with a Qualified
      Insurer. The Company shall not take any action which would result in
      non-coverage under any applicable Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy of any
      loss
      which, but for the actions of the Company would have been covered thereunder.
      In
      connection with any assumption or substitution agreement entered into or to
      be
      entered into pursuant to Section 6.01, the Company shall promptly notify the
      insurer under the related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if any, of such
      assumption or substitution of liability in accordance with the terms of such
      policy and shall take all actions which may be required by such insurer as
      a
      condition to the continuation of coverage under the Primary Mortgage Insurance
      Policy. If such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy is terminated as a result
      of
      such assumption or substitution of liability, the Company shall obtain a
      replacement Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy as provided above.

    

    In
      connection with its activities as servicer, the Company agrees to prepare and
      present, on behalf of itself and the Purchaser, claims to the insurer under
      any
      Private Mortgage Insurance Policy in a timely fashion in accordance with the
      terms of such Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy and, in this regard, to take
      such action as shall be necessary to permit recovery under any Primary Mortgage
      Insurance Policy respecting a defaulted Mortgage Loan. Pursuant to Section
      4.04,
      any amounts collected by the Company under any Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy
      shall be deposited in the Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant
      to
      Section 4.05.

    

    Section
      4.09 Transfer
      of Accounts.

    

    The
      Company may transfer the Custodial Account or the Escrow Account to a different
      Eligible Account from time to time. Such transfer shall be made only upon
      obtaining the prior written consent of the Purchaser, which consent will not
      be
      unreasonably withheld.

    

    Section
      4.10 Maintenance
      of Hazard Insurance.

    

    The
      Company shall cause to be maintained for each Mortgage Loan fire and hazard
      insurance with extended coverage as is acceptable to Fannie Mae or FHLMC and
      customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property is located in an amount
      which
      is equal to the lesser of (i) the maximum insurable value of the improvements
      securing such Mortgage Loan or (ii) the greater of (a) the outstanding principal
      balance of the Mortgage Loan, and (b) an amount such that the proceeds thereof
      shall be sufficient to prevent the Mortgagor and/or the mortgagee from becoming
      a co-insurer. If required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as
      amended, each Mortgage Loan shall be covered by a flood insurance policy meeting
      the requirements of the current guidelines of the Federal Insurance
      Administration in effect with an insurance carrier acceptable to Fannie Mae
      or
      FHLMC, in an amount representing coverage not less than the least of (i) the
      outstanding principal balance of the Mortgage Loan, (ii) the maximum insurable
      value of the improvements securing such Mortgage Loan or (iii) the maximum
      amount of insurance which is available under the Flood Disaster Protection
      Act
      of 1973, as amended. If at any time during the term of the Mortgage Loan, the
      Company determines in accordance with applicable law and pursuant to the Fannie
      Mae Guides that a Mortgaged Property is located in a special flood hazard area
      and is not covered by flood insurance or is covered in an amount less than
      the
      amount required by the Flood Disaster Protection Act of 1973, as amended, the
      Company shall notify the related Mortgagor that the Mortgagor must obtain such
      flood insurance coverage, and if said Mortgagor fails to obtain the required
      flood insurance coverage within forty-five (45) days after such notification,
      the Company shall immediately force place the required flood insurance on the
      Mortgagor’s behalf. The Company shall also maintain on each REO Property, fire
      and hazard insurance with extended coverage in an amount which is at least
      equal
      to the maximum insurable value of the improvements which are a part of such
      property, and, to the extent required and available under the Flood Disaster
      Protection Act of 1973, as amended, flood insurance in an amount as provided
      above. Any amounts collected by the Company under any such policies other than
      amounts to be deposited in the Escrow Account and applied to the restoration
      or
      repair of the Mortgaged Property or REO Property, or released to the Mortgagor
      in accordance with Accepted Servicing Practices, shall be deposited in the
      Custodial Account, subject to withdrawal pursuant to Section 4.05. It is
      understood and agreed that no other additional insurance need be required by
      the
      Company of the Mortgagor or maintained on property acquired in respect of the
      Mortgage Loan, other than pursuant to this Agreement, the Fannie Mae Guides
      or
      such applicable state or federal laws and regulations as shall at any time
      be in
      force and as shall require such additional insurance. All such policies shall
      be
      endorsed with standard mortgagee clauses with loss payable to the Company and
      its successors and/or assigns and shall provide for at least thirty days prior
      written notice of any cancellation, reduction in the amount or material change
      in coverage to the Company. The Company shall not interfere with the Mortgagor's
      freedom of choice in selecting either his insurance carrier or agent, provided,
      however, that the Company shall not accept any such insurance policies from
      insurance companies unless such companies are Qualified Insurers.

    

    Section
      4.11 Maintenance
      of Mortgage Impairment Insurance Policy.

    

    In
      the
      event that the Company shall obtain and maintain a blanket policy issued by
      a
      Qualified Insurer insuring against hazard losses on all of the Mortgage Loans,
      then, to the extent such policy provides coverage in an amount equal to the
      amount required pursuant to Section 4.10 and otherwise complies with all other
      requirements of Section 4.10, it shall conclusively be deemed to have satisfied
      its obligations as set forth in Section 4.10, it being understood and agreed
      that such policy may contain a deductible clause, in which case the Company
      shall, in the event that there shall not have been maintained on the related
      Mortgaged Property or REO Property a policy complying with Section 4.10, and
      there shall have been a loss which would have been covered by such policy,
      deposit in the Custodial Account the amount not otherwise payable under the
      blanket policy because of such deductible clause. In connection with its
      activities as servicer of the Mortgage Loans, the Company agrees to prepare
      and
      present, on behalf of the Purchaser, claims under any such blanket policy in
      a
      timely fashion in accordance with the terms of such policy. Upon request of
      the
      Purchaser, the Company shall cause to be delivered to the Purchaser a certified
      true copy of such policy and shall use its best efforts to obtain a statement
      from the insurer thereunder that such policy shall in no event be terminated
      or
      materially modified without thirty (30) days' prior written notice to the
      Purchaser.

    

    Section
      4.12 Fidelity
      Bond, Errors and Omissions Insurance.

    

    The
      Company shall maintain, at its own expense, a blanket fidelity bond and an
      errors and omissions insurance policy, with broad coverage with responsible
      companies on all officers, employees or other persons acting in any capacity
      with regard to the Mortgage Loan to handle funds, money, documents and papers
      relating to the Mortgage Loan. The Fidelity Bond shall be in the form of the
      Mortgage Banker's Blanket Bond and shall protect and insure the Company against
      losses, including forgery, theft, embezzlement and fraud of such persons. The
      errors and omissions insurance shall protect and insure the Company against
      losses arising out of errors and omissions and negligent acts of such persons.
      Such errors and omissions insurance shall also protect and insure the Company
      against losses in connection with the failure to maintain any insurance policies
      required pursuant to this Agreement and the release or satisfaction of a
      Mortgage Loan without having obtained payment in full of the indebtedness
      secured thereby. No provision of this Section 4.12 requiring the Fidelity Bond
      or errors and omissions insurance shall diminish or relieve the Company from
      its
      duties and obligations as set forth in this Agreement. The minimum coverage
      under any such bond and insurance policy shall be at least equal to the
      corresponding amounts required by Fannie Mae in the Fannie Mae Guides. Upon
      request by the Purchaser, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser a
      certificate from the surety and the insurer as to the existence of the Fidelity
      Bond and errors and omissions insurance policy and shall obtain a statement
      from
      the surety and the insurer that such Fidelity Bond or insurance policy shall
      in
      no event be terminated or materially modified without thirty (30) days' prior
      written notice to the Purchaser. The Company shall notify the Purchaser within
      five (5) business days of receipt of notice that such Fidelity Bond or insurance
      policy will be, or has been, materially modified or terminated. The Purchaser
      (or any party having the status of Purchaser hereunder) and any subsidiary
      thereof and their successors or assigns as their interests may appear must
      be
      named as loss payees on the Fidelity Bond and as additional insured on the
      errors and omissions policy. Upon request by Purchaser, Company shall provide
      Purchaser with an insurance certificate certifying coverage under this Section
      4.12, and will provide an update to such certificate upon request, or upon
      renewal or material modification of coverage.

    

    Section
      4.13 Title,
      Management and Disposition of REO Property.

    

    In
      the
      event that title to the Mortgaged Property is acquired in foreclosure or by
      deed
      in lieu of foreclosure, the deed or certificate of sale shall be taken in the
      name of the Purchaser or its designee, or in the event the Purchaser or its
      designee is not authorized or permitted to hold title to real property in the
      state where the REO Property is located, or would be adversely affected under
      the "doing business" or tax laws of such state by so holding title, the deed
      or
      certificate of sale shall be taken in the name of such Person or Persons as
      shall be consistent with an opinion of counsel obtained by the Company from
      an
      attorney duly licensed to practice law in the state where the REO Property
      is
      located. Any Person or Persons holding such title other than the Purchaser
      shall
      acknowledge in writing that such title is being held as nominee for the benefit
      of the Purchaser.

    

    The
      Company shall notify the Purchaser in accordance with the Fannie Mae Guides
      of
      each acquisition of REO Property upon such acquisition (and, in any event,
      shall
      provide notice of the consummation of any foreclosure sale within three (3)
      Business Days of the date Company receives notice of such consummation),
      together with a copy of the drive by appraisal or brokers price opinion of
      the
      Mortgaged Property obtained in connection with such acquisition. The Purchaser
      shall thereafter assume the responsibility for marketing such REO property
      and
      shall be disposed of by the Purchaser. No Servicing Fee shall be assessed or
      otherwise accrue on any REO Property from and after the date on which it becomes
      an REO Property. 

    

    The
      Company shall, either itself or through an agent selected by the Company, and
      in
      accordance with the Fannie Mae Guides manage, conserve, protect and operate
      each
      REO Property in the same manner that it manages, conserves, protects and
      operates other foreclosed property for its own account, and in the same manner
      that similar property in the same locality as the REO Property is managed,
      until
      such time the REO Property is conveyed to the Purchaser for final disposition.
      The Company shall cause each REO Property to be inspected promptly upon the
      acquisition of title thereto and shall cause each REO Property to be inspected
      at least monthly thereafter or more frequently as required by the circumstances.
      The Company shall make or cause to be made a written report of each such
      inspection and such reports shall be retained in the Mortgage File. The Company
      shall file
      all
      necessary mortgage insurance claims. 

    

    Section
      4.14 Notification
      of Maturity Date.

    

    With
      respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Company shall execute and deliver to the
      Mortgagor any and all necessary notices required under applicable law and the
      terms of the related Mortgage Note and Mortgage regarding the maturity date
      if
      required under applicable law.

    Section
      5.01 Distributions.

    

    On
      each
      Remittance Date, the Company shall distribute by wire transfer of immediately
      available funds to the Purchaser (i) all amounts credited to the Custodial
      Account as of the close of business on the preceding Determination Date, net
      of
      charges against or withdrawals from the Custodial Account pursuant to Section
      4.05, plus (ii) all Monthly Advances, if any, which the Company is obligated
      to
      distribute pursuant to Section 5.03, plus, (iii) interest at the Mortgage Loan
      Remittance Rate on any Principal Prepayment from the date of such Principal
      Prepayment through the end of the month for which disbursement is made provided
      that the Company’s obligation as to payment of such interest shall be limited to
      the Servicing Fee earned during the month of the distribution, minus (iv) any
      amounts attributable to Monthly Payments collected but due on a Due Date or
      Dates subsequent to the preceding Determination Date, which amounts shall be
      remitted on the Remittance Date next succeeding the Due Period for such amounts.
      It is understood that, by operation of Section 4.04, the remittance on the
      first
      Remittance Date with respect to Mortgage Loans purchased pursuant to the related
      Term Sheet is to include principal collected after the Cut-off Date through
      the
      preceding Determination Date plus interest, adjusted to the Mortgage Loan
      Remittance Rate collected through such Determination Date exclusive of any
      portion thereof allocable to the period prior to the Cut-off Date, with the
      adjustments specified in clauses (ii), (iii) and (iv) above.

    

    With
      respect to any remittance received by the Purchaser after the Remittance Date,
      the Company shall pay to the Purchaser interest on any such late payment at
      an
      annual rate equal to the Prime Rate, adjusted as of the date of each change,
      plus three (3) percentage points, but in no event greater than the maximum
      amount permitted by applicable law. Such interest shall cover the period
      commencing with the day following the Business Day such payment was due and
      ending with the Business Day on which such payment is made to the Purchaser,
      both inclusive. The payment by the Company of any such interest shall not be
      deemed an extension of time for payment or a waiver of any Event of Default
      by
      the Company. On each Remittance Date, the Company shall provide a remittance
      report detailing all amounts being remitted pursuant to this Section
      5.01.

    

    Section
      5.02 Statements

    The
      Company shall furnish to Purchaser an individual loan accounting report, as
      of
      the last Business Day of each month, in the Company's assigned loan number
      order

      With respect to each month, the corresponding individual loan accounting report
      shall be received by the Purchaser no later than the fifth Business Day of
      the
      following month on a disk or tape or other computer-readable format in such
      format as may be mutually agreed upon by both Purchaser and Company, and no
      later than the fifth Business Day of the following month in hard copy, and
      shall
      contain the following:

      respect to each Monthly Payment, the amount of such remittance allocable to
      principal (including a separate breakdown of any Principal Prepayment, including
      the date of such prepayment, and any prepayment penalties or premiums, along
      with a detailed report of interest on principal prepayment amounts remitted
      in
      accordance with Section 4.04);

    

    (ii)
      with
      respect to each Monthly Payment, the amount of such remittance allocable to
      interest;

    

    (iii)
      the
      amount of servicing compensation received by the Company during the prior
      distribution period;

    

    (iv)

      which foreclosure has commenced; and (c) as to which REO Property has been
      acquired; and

    

    The
      Company shall also provide a trial balance, sorted in Purchaser's assigned
      loan
      number order, in the form of Exhibit E hereto, with each such
      Report.

    

    The
      Company shall prepare and file any and all information statements or other
      filings required to be delivered to any governmental taxing authority or to
      Purchaser pursuant to any applicable law with respect to the Mortgage Loans
      and
      the transactions contemplated hereby. In addition, the Company shall provide
      Purchaser with such information concerning the Mortgage Loans as is necessary
      for Purchaser to prepare its federal income tax return as Purchaser may
      reasonably request from time to time.

    

    In
      addition, not more than sixty (60) days after the end of each calendar year,
      the
      Company shall furnish to each Person who was a Purchaser at any time during

      Loan Remittance Rate, which were due on a Mortgage Loan and delinquent at the

      provided, however that the Company shall not be obligated to advance any
      shortfall arising as a result of application of the Soldiers’ and Sailors’ Civil
      Relief Act of 1940 to any Mortgage Loan. .

    

    The
      Company's obligation to make such Monthly Advances as to any Mortgage Loan
      will
      continue through the last Monthly Payment due prior to the payment in full
      of
      the Mortgage Loan, or through the Remittance Date prior to the date on which
      the
      Mortgaged Property liquidates (including Insurance Proceeds, proceeds from
      the
      sale of REO Property or Condemnation Proceeds) with respect to the Mortgage
      Loan
      unless the Company deems such advance to be a Nonrecoverable Advance. In such
      event, the Company shall deliver to the Purchaser an Officer's Certificate
      of
      the Company to the effect that an officer of the Company has reviewed the
      related Mortgage File and has made the reasonable determination that any
      additional advances are nonrecoverable.

      in
      the month following the related Prepayment Period, the Company shall deposit
      in
      the Custodial Account an amount equal to any Prepayment Interest Shortfalls
      with
      respect to such Prepayment Period, which in the aggregate shall not exceed
      the

    GENERAL
      SERVICING PROCEDURES

    

    Section
      6.01 Assumption
      Agreements.

    

    The
      Company will, to the extent it has knowledge of any conveyance or prospective
      conveyance by any Mortgagor of the Mortgaged Property (whether by absolute
      conveyance or by contract of sale, and whether or not the Mortgagor remains
      or
      is to remain liable under the Mortgage Note and/or the Mortgage), exercise
      its
      rights to accelerate the maturity of such Mortgage Loan under any "due-on-sale"
      clause to the extent permitted by law; provided, however, that the Company
      shall
      not exercise any such rights if prohibited by law or the terms of the Mortgage
      Note from doing so or if the exercise of such rights would impair or threaten
      to
      impair any recovery under the related Primary Mortgage Insurance Policy, if
      any.
      If the Company reasonably believes it is unable under applicable law to enforce
      such "due-on-sale" clause, the Company, with the approval of the Purchaser,
      will
      enter into an assumption agreement with the person to whom the Mortgaged
      Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed, pursuant to which
      such
      person becomes liable under the Mortgage Note and, to the extent permitted
      by
      applicable state law, the Mortgagor remains liable thereon. Where an assumption
      is allowed pursuant to this Section 6.01, the Company, with the prior consent
      of
      the Purchaser and the primary mortgage insurer, if any, is authorized to enter
      into a substitution of liability agreement with the person to whom the Mortgaged
      Property has been conveyed or is proposed to be conveyed pursuant to which
      the
      original mortgagor is released from liability and such Person is substituted
      as
      mortgagor and becomes liable under the related Mortgage Note. Any such
      substitution of liability agreement shall be in lieu of an assumption agreement.
      

    

    In
      connection with any such assumption or substitution of liability, the Company
      shall follow the underwriting practices and procedures of the Company. With
      respect to an assumption or substitution of liability, the Mortgage Interest
      Rate borne by the related Mortgage Note, the amount of the Monthly Payment
      and
      the maturity date may not be changed (except pursuant to the terms of the
      Mortgage Note). If the credit of the proposed transferee does not meet such
      underwriting criteria, the Company diligently shall, to the extent permitted
      by
      the Mortgage or the Mortgage Note and by applicable law, accelerate the maturity
      of the Mortgage Loan. The Company shall notify the Purchaser that any such
      substitution of liability or assumption agreement has been completed by
      forwarding to the Purchaser the original of any such substitution of liability
      or assumption agreement, which document shall be added to the related Mortgage
      File and shall, for all purposes, be considered a part of such Mortgage File
      to
      the same extent as all other documents and instruments constituting a part
      thereof. All fees collected by the Company for entering into an assumption
      or
      substitution of liability agreement shall belong to the Company.

    

    Notwithstanding
      the foregoing paragraphs of this Section or any other provision of this
      Agreement, the Company shall not be deemed to be in default, breach or any
      other
      violation of its obligations hereunder by reason of any assumption of a Mortgage
      Loan by operation of law or any assumption which the Company may be restricted
      by law from preventing, for any reason whatsoever. For purposes of this Section
      6.01, the term "assumption" is deemed to also include a sale of the Mortgaged
      Property subject to the Mortgage that is not accompanied by an assumption or
      substitution of liability agreement.

    

    Section
      6.02 Satisfaction
      of Mortgages and Release of Mortgage Files.

    

    Upon
      the
      payment in full of any Mortgage Loan, or the receipt by the Company of a
      notification that payment in full will be escrowed in a manner customary for
      such purposes, the Company will immediately notify the Purchaser by a
      certification, which certification shall include a statement to the effect
      that
      all amounts received or to be received in connection with such payment which
      are
      required to be deposited in the Custodial Account pursuant to Section 4.04
      have
      been or will be so deposited, of a Servicing Officer and shall request delivery
      to it of the portion of the Mortgage File held by the Purchaser. The Purchaser
      shall no later than five Business Days after receipt of such certification
      and
      request, release or cause to be released to the Company, the related Mortgage
      Loan Documents and, upon its receipt of such documents, the Company shall
      promptly prepare and deliver to the Purchaser the requisite satisfaction or
      release. No later than five (5) Business Days following its receipt of such
      satisfaction or release, the Purchaser shall deliver, or cause to be delivered,
      to the Company the release or satisfaction properly executed by the owner of
      record of the applicable mortgage or its duly appointed attorney in fact. No
      expense incurred in connection with any instrument of satisfaction or deed
      of
      reconveyance shall be chargeable to the Custodial Account.

    

    In
      the
      event the Company satisfies or releases a Mortgage without having obtained
      payment in full of the indebtedness secured by the Mortgage or should it
      otherwise prejudice any right the Purchaser may have under the mortgage
      instruments, the Company, upon written demand, shall remit within two (2)
      Business Days to the Purchaser the then outstanding principal balance of the
      related Mortgage Loan by deposit thereof in the Custodial Account. The Company
      shall maintain the Fidelity Bond and errors and omissions insurance insuring
      the
      Company against any loss it may sustain with respect to any Mortgage Loan not
      satisfied in accordance with the procedures set forth herein.

    

    From
      time
      to time and as appropriate for the servicing or foreclosure of the Mortgage
      Loan, including for the purpose of collection under any Primary Mortgage
      Insurance Policy, the Purchaser shall, upon request of the Company and delivery
      to the Purchaser of a servicing receipt signed by a Servicing Officer, release
      the portion of the Mortgage File held by the Purchaser to the Company. Such
      servicing receipt shall obligate the Company to return the related Mortgage
      documents to the Purchaser when the need therefor by the Company no longer
      exists, unless the Mortgage Loan has been liquidated and the Liquidation
      Proceeds relating to the Mortgage Loan have been deposited in the Custodial
      Account or the Mortgage File or such document has been delivered to an attorney,
      or to a public trustee or other public official as required by law, for purposes
      of initiating or pursuing legal action or other proceedings for the foreclosure
      of the Mortgaged Property either judicially or non-judicially, and the Company
      has delivered to the Purchaser a certificate of a Servicing Officer certifying
      as to the name and address of the Person to which such Mortgage File or such
      document was delivered and the purpose or purposes of such delivery. Upon
      receipt of a certificate of a Servicing Officer stating that such Mortgage
      Loan
      was liquidated, the servicing receipt shall be released by the Purchaser to
      the
      Company.

    

    Section
      6.03 Servicing
      Compensation.

    

    As
      compensation for its services hereunder, the Company shall be entitled to
      withdraw from the Custodial Account (to the extent of interest payments
      collected on the Mortgage Loans) or to retain from interest payments collected
      on the Mortgage Loans, the amounts provided for as the Company's Servicing
      Fee,
      subject to payment of compensating interest on Principal Prepayments as capped
      by the Servicing Fee pursuant to Section 5.01 (iii). Additional servicing
      compensation in the form of assumption fees, as provided in Section 6.01, and
      late payment charges or otherwise shall be retained by the Company to the extent
      not required to be deposited in the Custodial Account. No Servicing Fee shall
      be
      payable in connection with partial Monthly Payments. The Company shall be
      required to pay all expenses incurred by it in connection with its servicing
      activities hereunder and shall not be entitled to reimbursement therefor except
      as specifically provided for.

    

    Section
      6.04 Annual
      Statement as to Compliance.

    

    The
      Company will deliver to the Purchaser not later than 90 days following the
      end
      of each fiscal year of the Company beginning in March 2004, an Officers'
      Certificate stating, as to each signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the
      activities of the Company during the preceding calendar year and of performance
      under this Agreement has been made under such officers' supervision, and (ii)
      to
      the best of such officers' knowledge, based on such review, the Company has
      fulfilled all of its obligations under this Agreement throughout such year,
      or,
      if there has been a default in the fulfillment of any such obligation,
      specifying each such default known to such officers and the nature and status
      of
      cure provisions thereof. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the
      Company to the Purchaser upon request.

    

    Section
      6.05 Annual
      Independent Certified Public Accountants' Servicing Report.

    

    Within
      ninety (90) days of Company's fiscal year end beginning in March 2004, the
      Company at its expense shall cause a firm of independent public accountants
      which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants
      to
      furnish a statement to the Purchaser to the effect that such firm has examined
      certain documents and records relating to the Company's servicing of mortgage
      loans of the same type as the Mortgage Loans pursuant to servicing agreements
      substantially similar to this Agreement, which agreements may include this
      Agreement, and that, on the basis of such an examination, conducted
      substantially in the uniform single audit program for mortgage bankers, such
      firm is of the opinion that the Company's servicing has been conducted in
      compliance with the agreements examined pursuant to this Section 6.05, except
      for (i) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to be immaterial, and (ii)
      such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such statement. Copies of such
      statement shall be provided by the Company to the Purchaser. In addition, on
      an
      annual basis, Company shall provided Purchaser with copies of its audited
      financial statements. 

    

    Section
      6.06 Purchaser's
      Right to Examine Company Records.

    

    The
      Purchaser shall have the right to examine and audit upon reasonable notice
      to
      the Company, during business hours or at such other times as might be reasonable
      under applicable circumstances, any and all of the books, records, documentation
      or other information of the Company, or held by another for the Company or
      on
      its behalf or otherwise, which relates to the performance or observance by
      the
      Company of the terms, covenants or conditions of this Agreement.

    

    The
      Company shall provide to the Purchaser and any supervisory agents or examiners
      representing a state or federal governmental agency having jurisdiction over
      the
      Purchaser, including but not limited to OTS, FDIC and other similar entities,
      access to any documentation regarding the Mortgage Loans in the possession
      of
      the Company which may be required by any applicable regulations. Such access
      shall be afforded without charge, upon reasonable request, during normal
      business hours and at the offices of the Company, and in accordance with the
      FDIC, OTS, or any other similar federal or state regulations, as
      applicable.

    The
      Company shall furnish to the Purchaser during the term of this Agreement, such

      or information to be as provided by and in accordance with such applicable
      instructions and directions as the Purchaser may reasonably request in relation
      to this Agreement or the performance of the Company under this Agreement. The
      Company agrees to execute and deliver all such instruments and take all such
      action as the Purchaser, from time to time, may reasonably request in order
      to
      effectuate the purpose and to carry out the terms of this
      Agreement.

    

    In
      connection with marketing the Mortgage Loans, the Purchaser may make available
      to a prospective purchaser audited financial statements of the Company for
      the
      most recently completed two (2) fiscal years for which such statements are

    THE
      SERVICER

    

    Section
      8.01 Indemnification;
      Third Party Claims.

    

    The
      Company agrees to indemnify the Purchaser and hold it harmless against any
      and
      all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures, legal fees and
      related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses that the
      Purchaser may sustain in any way related to the failure of the Company to
      observe and perform its duties, obligations, covenants, and agreements to
      service the Mortgage Loans in strict compliance with the terms of this
      Agreement. The Company agrees to indemnify the Purchaser and hold it harmless
      against any and all claims, losses, damages, penalties, fines, forfeitures,
      legal fees and related costs, judgments, and any other costs, fees and expenses
      that the Purchaser may sustain in any way from any claim, demand, defense or
      assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from any assertion based
      on,
      grounded upon or resulting from a breach or alleged breach of any of the
      representation or warranty set forth in Sections 3.01 or 3.02 of this Agreement.
      The Company shall immediately notify the Purchaser if a claim is made by a
      third
      party against Company with respect to this Agreement or the Mortgage Loans,
      assume (with the consent of the Purchaser) the defense of any such claim and
      pay
      all expenses in connection therewith, including counsel fees, whether or not
      such claim is settled prior to judgment, and promptly pay, discharge and satisfy
      any judgment or decree which may be entered against it or the Purchaser in
      respect of such claim. The Company shall follow any written instructions
      received from the Purchaser in connection with such claim. The Purchaser shall
      promptly reimburse the Company for all amounts advanced by it pursuant to the
      two preceding sentences except when the claim relates to the failure of the
      Company to service and administer the Mortgages in strict compliance with the
      terms of this Agreement, the breach of representation or warranty set forth
      in
      Sections 3.01 or 3.02, or the negligence, bad faith or willful misconduct of
      Company. The provisions of this Section 8.01 shall survive termination of this
      Agreement.

    

    Section
      8.02 Merger
      or Consolidation of the Company.

    

    The
      Company will keep in full effect its existence, rights and franchises as a
      corporation under the laws of the state of its incorporation except as permitted
      herein, and will obtain and preserve its qualification to do business as a
      foreign corporation in each jurisdiction in which such qualification is or
      shall
      be necessary to protect the validity and enforceability of this Agreement,
      or
      any of the Mortgage Loans and to perform its duties under this
      Agreement.

    

    Any
      Person into which the Company may be merged or consolidated, or any corporation
      resulting from any merger, conversion or consolidation to which the Company
      shall be a party, or any Person succeeding to the business of the Company
      whether or not related to loan servicing, shall be the successor of the Company
      hereunder, without the execution or filing of any paper or any further act
      on
      the part of any of the parties hereto, anything herein to the contrary
      notwithstanding; provided, however, that the successor or surviving Person
      shall
      be an institution (i) having a GAAP net worth of not less than $25,000,000,
      (ii)
      the deposits of which are insured by the FDIC, SAIF and/or BIF, and which is
      a
      HUD-approved mortgagee whose primary business is in origination and servicing
      of
      first lien mortgage loans, and (iii) who is a Fannie Mae or FHLMC approved
      seller/servicer in good standing.

    

    Section
      8.03 Limitation
      on Liability of the Company and Others.

    

    Neither
      the Company nor any of the officers, employees or agents of the Company shall
      be
      under any liability to the Purchaser for any action taken or for refraining
      from
      the taking of any action in good faith pursuant to this Agreement, or for errors
      in judgment made in good faith; provided, however, that this provision shall
      not
      protect the Company or any such person against any breach of warranties or
      representations made herein, or failure to perform its obligations in strict
      compliance with any standard of care set forth in this Agreement, or any
      liability which would otherwise be imposed by reason of negligence, bad faith
      or
      willful misconduct, or any breach of the terms and conditions of this Agreement.
      The Company and any officer, employee or agent of the Company may rely in good
      faith on any document of any kind prima facie properly executed and submitted
      by
      the Purchaser respecting any matters arising hereunder. The Company shall not
      be
      under any obligation to appear in, prosecute or defend any legal action which
      is
      not incidental to its duties to service the Mortgage Loans in accordance with
      this Agreement and which in its reasonable opinion may involve it in any
      expenses or liability; provided, however, that the Company may, with the consent
      of the Purchaser, undertake any such action which it may deem necessary or
      desirable in respect to this Agreement and the rights and duties of the parties
      hereto. In such event, the reasonable legal expenses and costs of such action
      and any liability resulting therefrom shall be expenses, costs and liabilities
      for which the Purchaser will be liable, and the Company shall be entitled to
      be
      reimbursed therefor from the Purchaser upon written demand.

    

    Section
      8.04 Company
      Not to Assign or Resign.

    

    The
      Company shall not assign this Agreement or resign from the obligations and
      duties hereby imposed on it except by mutual consent of the Company and the
      Purchaser or upon the determination that its duties hereunder are no longer
      permissible under applicable law and such incapacity cannot be cured by the
      Company. Any such determination permitting the resignation of the Company shall
      be evidenced by an Opinion of Counsel to such effect delivered to the Purchaser
      which Opinion of Counsel shall be in form and substance acceptable to the
      Purchaser. No such resignation shall become effective until a successor shall
      have assumed the Company's responsibilities and obligations hereunder in the
      manner provided in Section 11.01.

    

    Section
      8.05 No
      Transfer of Servicing.

    

    With
      respect to the retention of the Company to service the Mortgage Loans hereunder,
      the Company acknowledges that the Purchaser has acted in reliance upon the
      Company's independent status, the adequacy of its servicing facilities, plan,
      personnel, records and procedures, its integrity, reputation and financial
      standing and the continuance thereof. Without in any way limiting the generality
      of this Section, the Company shall not either assign this Agreement or the
      servicing hereunder or delegate its rights or duties hereunder or any portion
      thereof, or sell or otherwise dispose of all or substantially all of its
      property or assets, without the prior written approval of the Purchaser, which
      consent shall be granted or withheld in the Purchaser's sole
      discretion.

    

    Without
      in any way limiting the generality of this Section 8.05, in the event that
      the
      Company either shall assign this Agreement or the servicing responsibilities
      hereunder or delegate its duties hereunder or any portion thereof without (i)
      satisfying the requirements set forth herein or (ii) the prior written consent
      of the Purchaser, then the Purchaser shall have the right to terminate this
      Agreement, without any payment of any penalty or damages and without any
      liability whatsoever to the Company (other than with respect to accrued but
      unpaid Servicing Fees and Servicing Advances remaining unpaid) or any third
      party.

      under the terms of this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of
      one
      (1) Business Day; or

    

    (ii)
      failure on the part of the Company duly to observe or perform in any material
      respect any other of the covenants or agreements on the part of the Company
      set
      forth in this Agreement which continues unremedied for a period of thirty (30)
      days after the date on which written notice of such failure, requiring the
      same
      to be remedied, shall have been given to the Company by the Purchaser;
      or

    

    (iii)
      a
      decree or order of a court or agency or supervisory authority having
      jurisdiction for the appointment of a conservator or receiver or liquidator
      in
      any insolvency, bankruptcy, readjustment of debt, marshalling of assets and
      liabilities or similar proceedings, or for the winding-up or liquidation of
      its
      affairs, shall have been entered against the Company and such decree or order
      shall have remained in force undischarged or unstayed for a period of sixty
      days; or

    

    (iv)
      the
      Company shall consent to the appointment of a conservator or receiver or
      liquidator in any insolvency, bankruptcy, readjustment of debt, marshalling
      of
      assets and liabilities or similar proceedings of or relating to the Company
      or
      of or relating to all or substantially all of its property; or

    

    (v)
      the
      Company shall admit in writing its inability to pay its debts generally as
      they
      become due, file a petition to take advantage of any applicable insolvency
      or
      reorganization statute, make an assignment for the benefit of its creditors,
      or
      voluntarily suspend payment of its obligations; or

    

    (vi)
      Company ceases to be approved by either Fannie Mae or FHLMC as a mortgage loan
      seller or servicer for more than thirty days; or

    

    (vii)
      the
      Company attempts to assign its right to servicing compensation hereunder or
      the
      Company attempts, without the consent of the Purchaser, to sell or otherwise
      dispose of all or substantially all of its property or assets or to assign
      this
      Agreement or the servicing responsibilities hereunder or to delegate its duties
      hereunder or any portion thereof; or

    

    (viii)
      the Company ceases to be (a) licensed to service first lien residential mortgage
      loans in any jurisdiction in which a Mortgaged Property is located and such
      licensing is required, and (b) qualified to transact business in any
      jurisdiction where it is currently so qualified, but only to the extent such
      non-qualification materially and adversely affects the Company's ability to
      perform its obligations hereunder; or

    

    (ix)
      the
      Company fails to meet the eligibility criteria set forth in the last sentence
      of
      Section 8.02.

    

    Then,
      and
      in each and every such case, so long as an Event of Default shall not have
      been
      remedied, the Purchaser, by notice in writing to the Company (except in the
      case
      of an Event of Default under clauses (iii), (iv) or (v) above, in which case,
      automatically and without notice) Company may, in addition to whatever rights
      the Purchaser may have under Sections 3.03 and 8.01 and at law or equity or
      to
      damages, including injunctive relief and specific performance, terminate all
      the
      rights and obligations of the Company under this Agreement and in and to the
      Mortgage Loans and the proceeds thereof without compensating the Company for
      the
      same. On or after the receipt by the Company of such written notice (or, in
      the
      case of an Event of Default under clauses (iii), (iv) or (v) above, in which
      case, automatically and without notice), all authority and power of the Company
      under this Agreement, whether with respect to the Mortgage Loans or otherwise,
      shall pass to and be vested in the successor appointed pursuant to Section
      11.01. Upon written request from the Purchaser, the Company shall prepare,
      execute and deliver, any and all documents and other instruments, place in
      such
      successor's possession all Mortgage Files, and do or accomplish all other acts
      or things necessary or appropriate to effect the purposes of such notice of
      termination, whether to complete the transfer and endorsement or assignment
      of
      the Mortgage Loans and related documents, or otherwise, at the Company's sole
      expense. The Company agrees to cooperate with the Purchaser and such successor
      in effecting the termination of the Company's responsibilities and rights
      hereunder, including, without limitation, the transfer to such successor for
      administration by it of all cash amounts which shall at the time be credited
      by
      the Company to the Custodial Account or Escrow Account or thereafter received
      with respect to the Mortgage Loans or any REO Property.

    

    Section
      9.02 Waiver
      of Defaults.

    

    The
      Purchaser may waive only by written notice any default by the Company in the
      performance of its obligations hereunder and its consequences. Upon any such
      waiver of a past default, such default shall cease to exist, and any Event
      of
      Default arising therefrom shall be deemed to have been remedied for every

      respective obligations and responsibilities of the Company shall terminate

      respect thereto) of the last Mortgage Loan and the disposition of all remaining

    MISCELLANEOUS
      PROVISIONS

    

    Section
      11.01 Successor
      to the Company.

    

    Prior
      to
      termination of Company's responsibilities and duties under this Agreement
      pursuant to Sections 4.13, 8.04, 9.01, 10.01 (ii) or (iii), the Purchaser shall
      (i) succeed to and assume all of the Company's responsibilities, rights, duties
      and obligations under this Agreement, or (ii) appoint a successor having the
      characteristics set forth in Section 8.02 hereof and which shall succeed to
      all
      rights and assume all of the responsibilities, duties and liabilities of the
      Company under this Agreement prior to the termination of Company's
      responsibilities, duties and liabilities under this Agreement. In connection
      with such appointment and assumption, the Purchaser may make such arrangements
      for the compensation of such successor out of payments on Mortgage Loans as
      the
      Purchaser and such successor shall agree. In the event that the Company's
      duties, responsibilities and liabilities under this Agreement should be
      terminated pursuant to the aforementioned Sections, the Company shall discharge
      such duties and responsibilities during the period from the date it acquires
      knowledge of such termination until the effective date thereof with the same
      degree of diligence and prudence which it is obligated to exercise under this
      Agreement, and shall take no action whatsoever that might impair or prejudice
      the rights or financial condition of its successor. The resignation or removal
      of Company pursuant to the aforementioned Sections shall not become effective
      until a successor shall be appointed pursuant to this Section and shall in
      no
      event relieve the Company of the representations and warranties made pursuant
      to
      Sections 3.01, 3.02 and 3.03 and the remedies available to the Purchaser
      thereunder and under Section 8.01, it being understood and agreed that the
      provisions of such Sections 3.01, 3.02, 3.03 and 8.01 shall be applicable to
      the
      Company notwithstanding any such resignation or termination of the Company,
      or
      the termination of this Agreement.

    

    Any
      successor appointed as provided herein shall execute, acknowledge and deliver
      to
      the Company and to the Purchaser an instrument accepting such appointment,
      whereupon such successor shall become fully vested with all the rights, powers,
      duties, responsibilities, obligations and liabilities of the Company, with
      like
      effect as if originally named as a party to this Agreement. Any termination
      or
      resignation of the Company or this Agreement pursuant to Section 4.13, 8.04,
      9.01 or 10.01 shall not affect any claims that the Purchaser may have against
      the Company arising prior to any such termination or resignation.

    

    The
      Company shall promptly deliver to the successor the funds in the Custodial
      Account and the Escrow Account and the Mortgage Files and related documents
      and
      statements held by it hereunder and the Company shall account for all funds.
      The
      Company shall execute and deliver such instruments and do such other things
      all
      as may reasonably be required to more fully and definitely vest and confirm
      in
      the successor all such rights, powers, duties, responsibilities, obligations
      and
      liabilities of the Company. The successor shall make arrangements as it may
      deem
      appropriate to reimburse the Company for unrecovered Servicing Advances which
      the successor retains hereunder and which would otherwise have been recovered
      by
      the Company pursuant to this Agreement but for the appointment of the successor
      servicer.

    

    Upon
      a
      successor's acceptance of appointment as such, the Company shall notify by
      mail
      the Purchaser of such appointment.

    

    Section
      11.02 Amendment.

    

    This
      Agreement may be amended from time to time by the Company and the Purchaser
      by
      written agreement signed by the Company and the Purchaser.

    

    Section
      11.03 Recordation
      of Agreement.

    

    To
      the
      extent permitted by applicable law, this Agreement is subject to recordation
      in
      all appropriate public offices for real property records in all the counties
      or
      other comparable jurisdictions in which any of the properties subject to the
      Mortgages are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording office
      or
      elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by the Company at the Company's
      expense on direction of the Purchaser accompanied by an opinion of counsel
      to
      the effect that such recordation materially and beneficially affects the
      interest of the Purchaser or is necessary for the administration or servicing
      of
      the Mortgage Loans.

    

    Section
      11.04 Governing
      Law.

    Section
      11.06 Severability
      of Provisions.

    

    Any
      part,
      provision, representation or warranty of this Agreement and the related Term
      Sheet which is prohibited or which is held to be void or unenforceable shall
      be
      ineffective to the extent of such prohibition or unenforceability without

      representation or warranty of this Agreement which is prohibited or
      unenforceable or is held to be void or unenforceable in any jurisdiction shall
      be ineffective, as to such jurisdiction, to the extent of such prohibition
      or
      unenforceability without invalidating the remaining provisions hereof, and
      any
      such prohibition or unenforceability in any jurisdiction as to any Mortgage

      shall not invalidate or render unenforceable such provision in any other
      jurisdiction. To the extent permitted by applicable law, the parties hereto
      waive any provision of law that prohibits or renders void or unenforceable
      any
      provision hereof. If the invalidity of any part, provision, representation
      or
      warranty of this Agreement shall deprive any party of the economic benefit
      intended to be conferred by this Agreement, the parties shall negotiate, in
      good
      faith, to develop a structure the economic effect of which is nearly as possible
      the same as the economic effect of this Agreement without regard to such
      invalidity.

      11.07 Exhibits.

    Each
      party recognizes that, in connection with this Agreement, it may become privy
      to
      non-public information regarding the financial condition, operations and
      prospects of the other party. Each party agrees to keep all non-public

      such
      information solely in order to effectuate the purpose of the Agreement, provided

      agreement, arrangement, or understanding to the contrary, the Company and
      Purchaser (the “Parties”) agree that the Parties (and their employees,

      limitation of any kind from the commencement of discussions, the purported
      or
      claimed U.S. federal income tax treatment of the purchase of the Mortgage Loans
      and related transactions covered by this letter agreement (“tax treatment”) and
      any fact that may be relevant to understanding the tax treatment (“tax
      structure”) and all materials of any kind (including opinions or other tax
      analyses) that are provided to the Parties relating to such tax treatment and
      tax structure, except where confidentiality is reasonably necessary to comply
      with securities laws.

    

    Section
      11.11 Recordation
      of Assignments of Mortgage.

    

    To
      the
      extent permitted by applicable law, each of the Assignments is subject to
      recordation in all appropriate public offices for real property records in
      all
      the counties or other comparable jurisdictions in which any or all of the
      Mortgaged Properties are situated, and in any other appropriate public recording
      office or elsewhere, such recordation to be effected by and at the Company’s

      requested by the Purchaser at its sole option.

    

    Section
      11.12 Assignment.

    

    The
      Purchaser shall have the right, without the consent of the Company, to assign,
      in whole or in part, its interest under this Agreement with respect to some
      or
      all of the Mortgage Loans, and designate any person to exercise any rights
      of
      the Purchaser hereunder, by executing an Assignment and Assumption Agreement
      substantially in the form of Exhibit D hereto and the assignee or designee
      shall
      accede to the rights and obligations hereunder of the Purchaser with respect
      to
      such Mortgage Loans. In no event shall Purchaser sell a partial interest in
      any
      Mortgage Loan without the written consent of Company, which consent shall not
      be
      unreasonably denied. All references to the Purchaser in this Agreement shall
      be
      deemed to include its assignee or designee. The Company shall have the right,
      only with the consent of the Purchaser or otherwise in accordance with this
      Agreement, to assign, in whole or in part, its interest under this Agreement
      with respect to some or all of the Mortgage Loans.

    

    Section
      11.13 No
      Partnership.

    

    Nothing
      herein contained shall be deemed or construed to create a co-partnership or
      joint venture between the parties hereto and the services of the Company shall

      Purchaser.

    

    Section
      11.14 Execution:
      Successors and Assigns.

    

    This
      Agreement may be executed in one or more counterparts and by the different
      parties hereto on separate counterparts, each of which, when so executed, shall
      be deemed to be an original; such counterparts, together, shall constitute
      one
      and the same agreement. Subject to this Agreement shall inure to the benefit
      of
      and be binding upon the Company and the Purchaser and their respective
      successors and assigns.

    

    Section
      11.15 Entire
      Agreement.

    

    The
      Company acknowledges that no representations, agreements or promises were made
      to the Company by the Purchaser or any of its employees other than those
      representations, agreements or promises specifically contained herein and in
      the
      Confirmation. The Confirmation and this Agreement and the related Term Sheet
      sets forth the entire understanding between the parties hereto; provided,
      however, only this Agreement and the related Term Sheet shall be binding upon
      all successors of both parties. In the event of any inconsistency between the
      Confirmation and this Agreement, this Agreement and the related Term Sheet
      shall
      control.

    

    Section
      11.16. No
      Solicitation.

    

    From
      and
      after the Closing Date, the Company agrees that it will not take any action
      or
      permit or cause any action to be taken by any of its agents or affiliates,
      to
      personally, by telephone or mail, solicit the borrower or obligor under any
      Mortgage Loan to refinance the Mortgage Loan, in whole or in part, without
      the
      prior written consent of the Purchaser. Notwithstanding the foregoing, it is
      understood and agreed that (i) promotions undertaken by the Company or any
      affiliate of the Company which are directed to the general public at large,
      or
      segments thereof, provided that no segment shall consist primarily of the
      Mortgage Loans, including, without limitation, mass mailing based on
      commercially acquired mailing lists, newspaper, radio and television
      advertisements and (ii) responses to unsolicited requests or inquiries made
      by a
      Mortgagor or an agent of a Mortgagor, shall not constitute solicitation under
      this Section 11.16. This Section 11.16 shall not be deemed to preclude the
      Company or any of its affiliates from soliciting any Mortgagor for any other
      financial products or services. The Company shall use its best efforts to
      prevent the sale of the name of any Mortgagor to any Person who is not affiliate
      of the Company.

    

    Section
      11.17. Closing.

    

    The
      closing for the purchase and sale of the Mortgage Loans shall take place on
      the
      related Closing Date. The closing shall be either: by telephone, confirmed
      by
      letter or wire as the parties shall agree, or conducted in person, at such
      place
      as the parties shall agree.

    

    The
      closing for the Mortgage Loans to be purchased on the related Closing Date
      shall
      be subject to each of the following conditions:

    

    (a) at
      least
      one (1) Business Day prior to the related Closing Date, the Company shall
      deliver to the Purchaser a magnetic diskette, or transmit by modem, a listing
      on
      a loan-level basis of the information contained in the related Mortgage Loan
      Schedule attached to the related Term Sheet;

    

    (b) all
      of
      the representations and warranties of the Company under this Agreement shall
      be
      materially true and correct as of the related Closing Date and no event shall
      have occurred which, with notice or the passage of time, would constitute a
      material default under this Agreement;

    

    (c) the
      Purchaser shall have received, or the Purchaser's attorneys shall have received
      in escrow, all documents required pursuant to this Agreement, the related Term
      Sheet, an opinion of counsel and an officer's certificate, all in such forms
      as
      are agreed upon and acceptable to the Purchaser, duly executed by all
      signatories other than the Purchaser as required pursuant to the terms
      hereof;

    

    (d) the
      Company shall have delivered and released to the Purchaser (or its designee)
      on
      or prior to the related Closing Date all documents required pursuant to the
      terms of this Agreement and the related Term Sheet; and

    

    (e) all
      other
      terms and conditions of this Agreement, the related Term Sheet and the
      Confirmation shall have been materially complied with.

    

    Subject
      to the foregoing conditions, the Purchaser shall pay to the Company on the
      related Closing Date the Purchase Price, plus accrued interest pursuant to
      Section 2.02 of this Agreement, by wire transfer of immediately available funds
      to the account designated by the Company.

    

    Section
      11.18. Cooperation
      of Company with a Reconstitution.

    

    The
      Company and the Purchaser agree that with respect to some or all of the Mortgage
      Loans, on or after the related Closing Date, on one or more dates (each a
      "Reconstitution Date") at the Purchaser's sole option and with Purchaser’s best
      efforts to provide notice to the Company fifteen (15) days prior to the
      Reconstitution Date, the Purchaser may effect one or more sales, but in no
      event
      greater than three (3) per pool of Mortgage Loan sold under the related Term
      Sheet (each, a "Reconstitution") of some or all of the Mortgage Loans then
      subject to this Agreement, without recourse, to:

    

    (a) 
      one or
      more third party purchasers in one or more in whole loan transfers (each, a
      "Whole Loan Transfer"); or

    

    (b) one
      or
      more trusts or other entities to be formed as part of one or more pass-through
      transfers (each, a "Pass-Through Transfer").

    

    The
      Company agrees to execute in connection with any agreements among the Purchaser,
      the Company, and any servicer in connection with a Whole Loan Transfer, an
      Assignment, Assumption and Recognition Agreement substantially in the form
      of
      Exhibit D hereto, or, at Purchaser’s request, a seller's warranties and
      servicing agreement or a participation and servicing agreement or similar
      agreement in form and substance reasonably acceptable to the parties, and in
      connection with a Pass-Through Transfer, a pooling and servicing agreement
      in
      form and substance reasonably acceptable to the parties, (collectively the
      agreements referred to herein are designated, the "Reconstitution Agreements").
      It is understood that any such Reconstitution Agreements will not contain any
      greater obligations on the part of Company than are contained in this
      Agreement.

    

    With
      respect to each Whole Loan Transfer and each Pass-Through Transfer entered
      into
      by the Purchaser, the Company agrees (1) to cooperate fully with the Purchaser
      and any prospective purchaser with respect to all reasonable requests and due
      diligence procedures; (2) to execute, deliver and perform all Reconstitution
      Agreements required by the Purchaser; (3) to restate the representations and
      warranties set forth in this Agreement as of the settlement or closing date
      in
      connection with such Reconstitution (each, a "Reconstitution Date"). In that
      connection, the Company shall provide to such servicer or issuer, as the case
      may be, and any other participants in such Reconstitution: (i) any and all
      information (including servicing portfolio information) and appropriate
      verification of information (including servicing portfolio information) which

    CONTENTS
      OF MORTGAGE FILE

    

    With
      respect to each Mortgage Loan, the Mortgage File shall include each of the
      following items, which shall be available for inspection by the Purchaser,
      and
      which shall be retained by the Company in the Servicing File or delivered to
      the
      Purchaser or its designee pursuant to Sections 2.04 and 2.05 of the Purchase,
      Warranties and Servicing Agreement.

      original Mortgage Note endorsed "Pay to the order of
      ____________________________________________________, without recourse," and
      signed via original signature in the name of the Company by an authorized
      officer, with all intervening endorsements showing a complete chain of title
      from the originator to the Company, together with any applicable riders. In
      no
      event may an endorsement be a facsimile endorsement. If the Mortgage Loan was
      acquired by the Company in a merger, the endorsement must be by "[Company],
      successor by merger to the [name of predecessor]". If the Mortgage Loan was
      acquired or originated by the Company while doing business under another name,
      the endorsement must be by "[Company] formerly known as [previous name]".
      Mortgage Notes may be in the form of a lost note affidavit subject to Purchaser
      acceptability. 

    

    2.

      original or certified copy, certified by the Company, of the Primary Mortgage
      Insurance Policy, if required.

    

    4. The
      original Assignment, from the Company to _____________________________________,
      or in accordance with Purchaser's instructions, which assignment shall, but
      for
      any blanks requested by Purchaser, be in form and substance acceptable for
      recording. If the Mortgage Loan was acquired or originated by the Company while
      doing business under another name, the Assignment must be by "[Company] formerly
      known as [previous name]". If the Mortgage Loan was acquired by the Company
      in a
      merger, the endorsement must be by "[Company], successor by merger to the [name
      of predecessor]". None of the Assignments are blanket assignments of
      mortgage.

    

    5. The
      original policy of title insurance, including riders and endorsements thereto,
      or if the policy has not yet been issued, a written commitment or interim binder
      or preliminary report of title issued by the title insurance or escrow

      complete chain of title from the originator to the Company, with evidence of
      recording thereon, or a copy thereof certified by the public recording office
      in
      which such Assignment has been recorded or, if the original Assignment has
      not
      been returned from the applicable public recording office, a true certified
      copy, certified by the Company.

    

    7. Originals,
      or copies thereof certified by the public recording office in which such
      documents have been recorded, of each assumption, extension, modification,
      written assurance or substitution agreements, if applicable, or if the original
      of such document has not been returned from the applicable public recording
      office, a true certified copy, certified by the Company. 

    

    8. If
      the
      Mortgage Note or Mortgage or any other material document or instrument relating
      to the Mortgage Loan has been signed by a person on behalf of the Mortgagor,
      the
      original or copy of power of attorney or other instrument that authorized and
      empowered such person to sign bearing evidence that such instrument has been
      recorded, if so required in the appropriate jurisdiction where the Mortgaged
      Property is located, or a copy thereof certified by the public recording office
      in which such instrument has been recorded or, if the original instrument has

    Representations,
      Warranties and Covenants

    

    3. Assignor
      warrants and represents to Assignee and Company as of the date
      hereof:

    

    (a) Attached
      hereto as Attachment 2 is a true and accurate copy of the Purchase Agreement,
      which agreement is in full force and effect as of the date hereof and the
      provisions of which have not been waived, amended or modified in any respect,
      nor has any notice of termination been given thereunder;

    

    (b) Assignor
      is the lawful owner of the Assigned Loans with full right to transfer the
      Assigned Loans and any and all of its interests, rights and obligations under
      the Purchase Agreement as they relate to the Assigned Loans, free and clear
      from
      any and all claims and encumbrances; and upon the transfer of the Assigned
      Loans
      to Assignee as contemplated herein, Assignee shall have good title to each
      and
      every Assigned Loan, as well as any and all of Assignee’s interests, rights and
      obligations under the Purchase Agreement as they relate to the Assigned Loans,
      free and clear of any and all liens, claims and encumbrances;

    

    (c) There
      are
      no offsets, counterclaims or other defenses available to Company with respect
      to
      the Assigned Loans or the Purchase Agreement;

     

    (d) Assignor
      has no knowledge of, and has not received notice of, any waivers under, or
      any
      modification of, any Assigned Loan;

    

    (e) Assignor
      is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of
      the
      jurisdiction of its incorporation, and has all requisite power and authority
      to
      acquire, own and sell the Assigned Loans;

    

    (f) Assignor
      has full corporate power and authority to execute, deliver and perform its
      obligations under this PAAR Agreement, and to consummate the transactions set
      forth herein. The consummation of the transactions contemplated by this PAAR
      Agreement is in the ordinary course of Assignor’s business and will not conflict
      with, or result in a breach of, any of the terms, conditions or provisions
      of
      Assignor’s charter or by-laws or any legal restriction, or any material
      agreement or instrument to which Assignor is now a party or by which it is
      bound, or result in the violation of any law, rule, regulation, order, judgment
      or decree to which Assignor or its property is subject. The execution, delivery
      and performance by Assignor of this PAAR Agreement and the consummation by
      it of
      the transactions contemplated hereby, have been duly authorized by all necessary
      corporate action on part of Assignor. This PAAR Agreement has been duly executed
      and delivered by Assignor and, upon the due authorization, execution and
      delivery by Assignee and Company, will constitute the valid and legally binding
      obligation of Assignor enforceable against Assignor in accordance with its
      terms
      except as enforceability may be limited by bankruptcy, reorganization,
      insolvency, moratorium or other similar laws now or hereafter in effect relating
      to creditors’ rights generally, and by general principles of equity regardless
      of whether enforceability is considered in a proceeding in equity or at law;
      

     

    (g)  No
      consent, approval, order or authorization of, or declaration, filing or
      registration with, any governmental entity is required to be obtained or made
      by
      Assignor in connection with the execution, delivery or performance by Assignor
      of this PAAR Agreement, or the consummation by it of the transactions
      contemplated hereby; and

    

    (h)  Neither
      Assignor nor anyone acting on its behalf has offered, transferred, pledged,
      sold
      or otherwise disposed of the Assigned Loans or any interest in the Assigned
      Loans, or solicited any offer to buy or accept a transfer, pledge or other
      disposition of the Assigned Loans, or any interest in the Assigned Loans or
      otherwise approached or negotiated with respect to the Assigned Loans, or any
      interest in the Assigned Loans with any Person in any manner, or made any
      general solicitation by means of general advertising or in any other manner,
      or
      taken any other action which would constitute a distribution of the Assigned
      Loans under the Securities Act of 1933, as amended (the “1933 Act”) or which
      would render the disposition of the Assigned Loans a violation of Section 5
      of
      the 1933 Act or require registration pursuant thereto.

     

    4. Assignee
      warrants and represents to, and covenants with, Assignor and Company as of
      the

    AND

    THIS
      AMENDMENT NO. 1, effective as of May 14, 2004, amends the Purchase, Warranties
      and Servicing Agreement among EMC Mortgage Corporation (the “Purchaser”), First
      Tennessee Mortgage Services, Inc., as servicer (the “Servicer”) and First
      Horizon Home Loan Corporation (the “Seller”, and together with the Servicer, the
“Company”), previously entered into as of September 1, 2003 (the “Agreement”).

    

    RECITALS

    

    WHEREAS,
      the Company sells to the Purchaser, and the Purchaser purchases from the
      Company, from time to time, pursuant to the Agreement, certain conventional
      residential Mortgage Loans on a servicing retained basis; and

    

    WHEREAS,
      in connection with future sales of Mortgage Loans to the Purchaser, the Company
      and the Purchaser wish to amend the Agreement as set forth below.

    

    NOW,
      THEREFORE, in consideration of the premises and the mutual covenants hereinafter
      set forth and for good and valuable consideration, the receipt and sufficiency
      of which are hereby acknowledged, the Purchaser and the Company agree to amend
      the Agreement as follows:

    

    1. Section
      3.02(h) of the Agreement shall be deleted in its entirety and replaced with
      the
      following:

     

    (h) Each
      Mortgage Loan complies with, and the Company has complied with, applicable
      local, state and federal laws, regulations and other requirements including,
      without limitation, usury, equal credit opportunity, real estate settlement
      procedures, the Federal Truth-In-Lending Act, disclosure laws and all applicable
      predatory and abusive lending laws and consummation of the transactions
      contemplated hereby, including without limitation, the receipt of interest
      by
      the owner of such Mortgage Loan, will not involve the violation of any such
      laws, rules or regulations. None
      of
      the Mortgage Loans are (a) Mortgage Loans subject to 12 CFR Part 226.31, 12
      CFR
      Part 226.32 or 226.34 of Regulation Z, the regulation implementing TILA, which
      implements the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994, as amended,
      or
      (b) except as may be provided in subparagraph (c) below, classified and/or
      defined, as a “high cost”, “threshold”, “predatory” “high risk home loan” or
“covered” loan (or a similarly classified loan using different terminology under
      a law imposing additional legal liability for mortgage loans having high
      interest rates, points and or/fees) under any other applicable state, federal
      or
      local law including, but not limited to, the States of Georgia, New York, North
      Carolina, Arkansas, Kentucky or New Mexico or (c) Mortgage Loans subject to
      the
      New Jersey Home Ownership Security Act of 2002 (the “Act”), unless such Mortgage
      Loan is a (1) “Home Loan” as defined in the Act that is a first lien Mortgage
      Loan, which is not a “High Cost Home Loan” as defined in the Act or (2) “Covered
      Home Loan” as defined in the Act that is a first lien purchase money Mortgage
      Loan, which is not a High Cost Home Loan under the Act. In addition to and
      notwithstanding anything to the contrary herein, no Mortgage Loan for which
      the
      Mortgaged Property is located in New Jersey is a Home Loan as defined in the
      Act
      that was made, arranged, or assigned by a person selling either a manufactured
      home or home improvements to the Mortgaged Property or was made by an originator
      to whom the Mortgagor was referred by any such seller. Each
      Mortgage Loan is being (and has been) serviced in accordance with Accepted
      Servicing Practices and applicable state and federal laws, including, without
      limitation, the Federal Truth-In-Lending Act and other consumer protection
      laws,
      real estate settlement procedures, usury, equal credit opportunity and
      disclosure laws. Company shall maintain in its possession, available for the
      Purchaser’s inspection, as appropriate, and shall deliver to the Purchaser or
      its designee upon demand, evidence of compliance with all such
      requirements.

    

    2. The
      following representations and warranties shall be added to Section 3.02 of
      the
      Agreement:

    

    (yy)
       There
      is
      no Mortgage Loan that was originated on or after October 1, 2002 and before
      March 7, 2003, which is secured by property located in the State of
      Georgia.

    

    (zz)
       No
      proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were used to finance single premium credit
      insurance policies.

     

    (aaa)
       No
      borrower was encouraged or required to select a Mortgage Loan product offered
      by
      the Mortgage Loan’s originator which is a higher cost product designed for less
      creditworthy borrowers, unless at the time of the Mortgage Loan’s origination,
      such borrower did not qualify taking into account credit history and
      debt-to-income ratios for a lower-cost credit product then offered by the
      Mortgage Loan’s originator or any affiliate of the Mortgage Loan’s originator.
      If, at the time of loan application, the borrower may have qualified for a
      lower-cost credit product then offered by any mortgage lending affiliate of
      the
      Mortgage Loan’s originator, the Mortgage Loan’s originator referred the
      borrower’s application to such affiliate for underwriting
      consideration.

     

     

    (bbb) The
      methodology used in underwriting the extension of credit for each Mortgage
      Loan
      employs objective mathematical principles which relate the borrower’s income,
      assets and liabilities to the proposed payment and such underwriting methodology
      does not rely on the extent of the borrower’s equity in the collateral as the
      principal determining factor in approving such credit extension. Such
      underwriting methodology confirmed that at the time of origination
      (application/approval) the borrower had a reasonable ability to make timely
      payments on the Mortgage Loan.

     

     

    (ccc) With
      respect to any Mortgage Loan that contains a provision permitting imposition
      of
      a premium upon a prepayment prior to maturity: (i) prior to the loan’s
      origination, the borrower agreed to such premium in exchange for a monetary
      benefit, including but not limited to a rate or fee reduction, (ii) prior to
      the
      loan’s origination, the borrower was offered the option of obtaining a mortgage
      loan that did not require payment of such a premium, (iii) the prepayment
      premium is disclosed to the borrower in the loan documents pursuant to
      applicable state and federal law, and (iv) notwithstanding any state or federal
      law to the contrary, the Servicer shall not impose such prepayment premium
      in
      any instance when the mortgage debt is accelerated as the result of the
      borrower’s default in making the loan payments.

     

     

    (ddd) No
      borrower was required to purchase any credit life, disability, accident or
      health insurance product as a condition of obtaining the extension of credit.
      No
      borrower obtained a prepaid single-premium credit life, disability, accident
      or
      health insurance policy in connection with the origination of the Mortgage
      Loan;
      No proceeds from any Mortgage Loan were used to purchase single premium credit
      insurance policies as part of the origination of, or as a condition to closing,
      such Mortgage Loan.

     

     

    (eee) The
      Servicer will transmit full-file credit reporting data for each Mortgage Loan
      pursuant to the Fannie Mae Selling Guide and that for each Mortgage Loan,
      Servicer agrees it shall report one of the following statuses each month as
      follows: new origination, current, delinquent (30-, 60-, 90-days, etc.),
      foreclosed, or charged-off.

     

    

    (fff) Any
      Mortgage Loan with a Mortgaged Property in the State of Illinois complies with
      the Illinois Interest Act.

    

    3. The
      following field shall be added to the definition of Mortgage
      Loan Schedule:

      Company will deliver to the Purchaser not later than March 15th
      of each
      year, beginning March 15, 2005, an
      executed Officers' Certificate acceptable to the Purchaser stating, as to each
      signatory thereof, that (i) a review of the activities of the Company during
      the
      preceding calendar year and of performance under this Agreement has been made
      under such officers' supervision, and (ii) to the best of such officers'
      knowledge, based on such review, the Company has fulfilled all of its
      obligations under this Agreement throughout such year, or, if there has been
      a
      default in the fulfillment of any such obligation, specifying each such default
      known to such officers and the nature and status of cure provisions thereof.
      Such Officers’ Certificate shall contain no restrictions or limitations on its
      use. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Company to the Purchaser
      upon request.

      give
      prompt written notice to the Company. The Company shall have a period of five
      (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice to provide what is required
      hereunder. Failure of the Company to timely comply thereafter shall be deemed

      relief and specific performance, terminate all the rights and obligations of
      the
      Company under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds
      thereof without compensating the Company for the same, as provided in Section

      accountants which is a member of the American Institute of Certified Public

      to the Company's servicing of mortgage loans of the same type as the Mortgage
      Loans pursuant to servicing agreements substantially similar to this Agreement,
      which agreements may include this Agreement, and that, on the basis of such
      an
      examination, conducted substantially in the uniform single audit program for
      mortgage bankers, such firm is of the opinion that the Company's servicing
      has
      been conducted in compliance with the agreements examined pursuant to this
      Section 6.05, except for (i) such exceptions as such firm shall believe to
      be
      immaterial, and (ii) such other exceptions as shall be set forth in such
      statement. Such statement shall contain no restrictions or limitations on its
      use. Copies of such statement shall be provided by the Company to the Purchaser.

      of
      its audited financial statements.

      Company does not timely comply with this Section 6.05, the Purchaser shall
      give
      prompt written notice to the Company. The Company shall have a period of five
      (5) Business Days after receipt of such notice to provide what is required
      hereunder. Failure of the Company to timely comply thereafter shall be deemed

      and
      Purchaser may, in addition to whatever rights the Purchaser may have under
      Sections 3.03 and 8.01 and at law or equity or to damages, including injunctive
      relief and specific performance, terminate all the rights and obligations of
      the
      Company under this Agreement and in and to the Mortgage Loans and the proceeds
      thereof without compensating the Company for the same, as provided in Section
      9.01. Such termination shall be considered with cause pursuant to Section 10.01
      of this Agreement. This paragraph shall supercede any other provision in this
      Agreement or any other agreement to the contrary.

    

    6. All
      other
      terms and conditions of the Agreement remain unchanged and in full force and
      effect.
