Section 2.01 Purchase and Sale. (a) The Originators hereby
agree to sell, assign, transfer, convey and set over to Purchaser, and Purchaser
hereby agrees to purchase and acquire from the Originators, without recourse
(subject to the Originators' obligations herein, including any obligation to
fund Additional Balances with respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans), on the
Closing Date, all of the Originators' respective right, title and interest in
and to (a) each Initial Mortgage Loan, including its Principal Balance as of the
Initial Cut-Off Date and all principal and interest collections in respect of
such Initial Mortgage Loan on or after the Initial Cut-Off Date (excluding any

(b) each related Mortgaged Property that is acquired by foreclosure or deed in
lieu of foreclosure; (c) all rights under any Mortgage Insurance Policies
covering each related Mortgaged Property; (d) all proceeds with respect to the

the Originators, all in such relative proportions as the Originators shall
jointly determine on or before the Closing Date.
(b) The Originators hereby agree to sell, assign, transfer, convey and

interest in and to (a) each Subsequent Mortgage Loan, including its Principal

collections in respect of such Subsequent Mortgage Loan on or after the
Subsequent Cut-Off Date (excluding any payments of principal and interest
collected prior to the Subsequent Cut-Off Date); (b) each related Mortgaged
Property that is acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure; (c) all
rights under any Mortgage Insurance Policies covering each related Mortgaged
Property; (d) all proceeds with respect to the foregoing; and (e) the Mortgage
File and other documents relating to the foregoing; provided, however, that
neither Purchaser nor any of its Assignees (including the Trust and the
Indenture Trustee) shall be deemed to assume any obligation under any Credit
Line Agreement that provides for the funding of future advances to the Mortgagor
thereunder, it being understood that any such obligation shall remain with the
Originators and that neither Purchaser nor any of its Assignees (including the
Trust and the Indenture Trustee) shall be required or permitted to fund any such
future advances. As full consideration for the Originators' sale, transfer,

equal to one-hundred percent (100%) of the aggregate Principal Balance thereof
as of the Subsequent Cut-Off Date, all in such relative proportions as the

(h) On the Closing Date, UCC-1 financing statements duly

the Trust as assignee.
Section 2.03 Survival of Representations. The terms and
conditions of the purchase and sale of each Mortgage Loan shall be as set forth
in this Agreement. Each Originator will be deemed on the Closing Date and each
Subsequent Transfer Date to have made to Purchaser the representations and
warranties set forth in Article IV hereof, and such representations and
warranties of such Originator shall be true and correct on and as of the Closing
Date and each Subsequent Transfer Date . In addition, such Originator will be
deemed to have reaffirmed the representations and warranties contained in

Section 2.05 Repurchased Mortgage Loans. If any Mortgage Loan
sold by an Originator hereunder is re-transferred to Purchaser pursuant to
Section 2.2(b) of the Sale and Servicing Agreement, the Originator shall, at
Purchaser's option, either (a) repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Loan
Purchase Price therefor or (b) substitute in lieu thereof a Qualified
Replacement Mortgage Loan (provided that the Originator has any such loans
available for sale at the time) and deliver to or upon the order of Purchaser
the related Substitution Amount, all in accordance with and subject to the
applicable terms and conditions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
ARTICLE III
Protective Security Interest
It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the
conveyance of the Mortgage Loans (including the related Mortgage Files and the
other rights and properties described in Section 2.01 hereof) by the Originators
to Purchaser as contemplated by this Agreement be construed as a sale of the
Mortgage Loans by the Originators to Purchaser. It is, further, not the intent
of the parties that such conveyance be deemed a pledge of the Mortgage Loans by
the Originators to Purchaser or any of its Assignees (including the Trust and
the Indenture Trustee) to secure a debt or other obligation of the Originators.
However, in the event and to the extent that, notwithstanding the intent of the
parties hereto, any or all of the Mortgage Loans (including the related Mortgage
Files and the other rights and properties described in Section 2.01 hereof) are
held to be property of either or both of the Originators, then (i) this
Agreement shall also be deemed to be a security agreement within the meaning of
Article 9 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; (ii) the conveyance provided
for herein shall be deemed to be a grant by the Originators to Purchaser of a
first priority security interest in all of the Originators' right, title and
interest in and to the Mortgage Loans (including the related Mortgage Files and
the other rights and properties described in Section 2.01 hereof) and all
amounts payable to the holder of the Mortgage Loans and/or such rights or
properties in accordance with the terms thereof and all proceeds of the
conversion, voluntary or involuntary, of the foregoing into cash, instruments,
securities or other property, including all amounts from time to time held or
invested in the Accounts (excluding any investment earnings on the Note Account,
the Principal and Interest Account and the Capitalized Interest Account),
whether in the form of cash, instruments, securities or other property; (iii)
the possession by Purchaser or any of its Assignees or their respective bailees
or agents of items of property that constitute instruments, money, negotiable
documents or chattel paper shall be deemed to be "possession by the secured
party" for purposes of perfecting the security interest pursuant to Section
9-305 of the New York Uniform Commercial Code; (iv) notifications to persons
holding such property, and acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from
persons holding such property, shall be
4
9
deemed notifications to, or acknowledgments, receipts or confirmations from,
financial intermediaries, bailees or agents (as applicable) of Purchaser for the
purpose of perfecting such security interest under applicable law; and (v) the
obligations secured by the first priority security interest described in clause
(ii) above shall be deemed to include any and all obligations of Purchaser or
any of its Assignees (including the Trust and the Indenture Trustee) to pay the
principal of and interest on the Notes to the Noteholders and to pay the fees,
expenses and other amounts required to be paid to the Master Servicer, the
Indenture Trustee, the Owner Trustee, the Insurer and the Certificateholders,
all in accordance with and otherwise subject to the Operative Documents
(including the Indenture). Any assignment or other transfer of the interest of
Purchaser under any provision hereof shall also be deemed to be an assignment of
any security interest created hereby. Each of the Originators and Purchaser
shall, to the extent consistent with this Agreement, take such actions as may be
necessary to ensure that, if this Agreement were deemed to create a security
interest in the Mortgage Loans, such security interest would be deemed to be a
perfected security interest of first priority under applicable law and would be
maintained as such throughout the terms of this Agreement, the Sale and
Servicing Agreement and the Indenture. Each of the Originators also covenants
not to pledge, assign or grant any security interest to any third party in any
Mortgage Loan conveyed to Purchaser hereunder.
Upon Purchaser's request, each Originator shall perform (or
cause to be performed) such further acts and execute, acknowledge and deliver
(or cause to be executed, acknowledged and delivered) to Purchaser such further
documents as Purchaser shall deem necessary or advisable in order to evidence,
establish, maintain, protect, enforce or defend its rights in and to the
Mortgage Loans and other rights and properties transferred hereunder or
otherwise to carry out the intent and accomplish the purposes of this Agreement
(including UCC-1 financing statements naming such Originator as debtor and
Purchaser as secured party and any continuation statements relating thereto).

same.
(g) Such Originator has caused to be performed any and all
acts required to preserve the rights and remedies of Purchaser in any Mortgage
Insurance Policies of such Originator applicable to the Mortgage Loans conveyed

Loans. Each Originator represents and warrants to Purchaser as of the Closing

Section 4.03 Representations and Warranties of Purchaser.
Purchaser hereby makes the following representations and warranties, each of
which representations and warranties (i) is material and being relied upon by

Subsequent Transfer Date:
(a) Purchaser has been duly organized and is validly existing
as a corporation under the laws of the State of Nevada.
(b) Purchaser has the requisite power and authority and legal
right to execute and deliver, engage in the transactions contemplated by, and
perform and observe the terms and conditions of, this Agreement to be performed
by it.
(c) This Agreement has been duly authorized and executed by
Purchaser, is valid, binding and enforceable against Purchaser in accordance
with its terms, and the execution, delivery and performance by Purchaser of this
Agreement does not conflict with any material term or provision of any other
agreement to which Purchaser is a party or any term or provision of the
Certificate of Incorporation or the By-laws of Purchaser, or any law, rule,
regulation, order, judgment, writ, injunction or decree applicable to Purchaser
of any court, regulatory body, administrative agency or governmental body having
jurisdiction over Purchaser.
(d) No consent, approval, authorization or order of,
registration or filing with, or notice to any governmental authority or court is
required under applicable law in connection with the execution and delivery by

(e) To the best knowledge of Purchaser, there is no action,
proceeding or investigation pending or threatened against Purchaser before any
court, administrative agency or other tribunal (i) asserting the invalidity of
this Agreement, (ii) seeking to prevent the consummation of any of the
transactions contemplated by this Agreement, or (iii) which is likely to
materially and adversely affect the performance by Purchaser of its obligations
under, or the validity or enforceability of, this Agreement.
(f) The purchase of the Mortgage Loans hereunder shall
constitute a representation by Purchaser to each Originator that Purchaser
understands, and that
7
12
Purchaser has such knowledge and experience in financial and business matters
that it is capable of evaluating the merits and risks of, its investment in the
relevant Mortgage Loans.
Section 4.04 Remedies for Breach of Representations and
Warranties; Repurchase Obligation. It is understood and agreed that the
representations and warranties set forth in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 shall survive
each sale of the Mortgage Loans to Purchaser and shall inure to the benefit of
Purchaser and its Assignees notwithstanding any restrictive or qualified
endorsement on any related Credit Line Agreement or Assignment of Mortgage or
the examination or failure to examine any Mortgage File. With respect to the
representations and warranties contained in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 which are
made to the best of an Originator's knowledge or to the actual knowledge of an
Originator, if it is discovered by such Originator or Purchaser that the
substance of such representation and warranty is inaccurate and such inaccuracy
materially and adversely affects the value of the related Mortgage Loan or
Purchaser's or any Assignee's interest therein, then notwithstanding such
Originator's lack of knowledge with respect to the inaccuracy at the time the
representation or warranty was made, such Originator shall repurchase the
related Mortgage Loan in accordance with this Section 4.04 as if the applicable
representation or warranty was breached, subject to the terms and conditions of
the Sale and Servicing Agreement. Upon discovery by an Originator or Purchaser
of a breach of any of the foregoing representations and warranties which
materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan or Purchaser's
interest therein, the party discovering such breach shall give prompt written
notice to the others.
Within 60 days of the earlier of either discovery by or notice
to an Originator of any breach of a representation or warranty by such
Originator which materially and adversely affects the value of any Mortgage Loan
or Purchaser's or any Assignee's interest therein, such Originator shall use its
best efforts promptly to cure such breach in all material respects and, if such
breach cannot be cured or is not cured or is not being diligently pursued as
evidenced by a notice acceptable to Purchaser, as evidenced by Purchaser's
agreement thereto, at the end of such 60-day period, Originator shall, at
Purchaser's option, either (a) repurchase such Mortgage Loan at the Loan
Purchase Price therefor or (b) substitute in lieu thereof a Qualified
Replacement Mortgage Loan (provided that the Originator has any such loans
available for sale at the time) and deliver to or upon the order of Purchaser
the related Substitution Amount, all in accordance with and subject to the
applicable terms and conditions of the Sale and Servicing Agreement.
At the time of repurchase or substitution, Purchaser and such
Originator shall arrange for the assignment to such Originator of such Mortgage
Loan and the delivery to such Originator of the related Mortgage File.
Each Originator shall indemnify and hold harmless Purchaser
and its Assignees from and against any losses, damages, penalties, fines,
forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees and related costs, judgments,
and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or
assertion based on or grounded upon, or resulting from, a breach by such
Originator of the representations and warranties contained in this Article IV
(notwithstanding any limitation in such representation and
8
13
warranty as to such Originator's knowledge). It is understood and agreed that
the obligations of each Originator set forth in this Section 4.04 either to cure
or to repurchase or substitute a non-qualifying Mortgage Loan and to indemnify
and hold harmless Purchaser as provided in this Section 4.04 constitute the sole
remedies of Purchaser respecting a breach by such Originator of the foregoing
representations and warranties.
Any cause of action against an Originator relating to or
arising out of the breach by such Originator of any representations and
warranties made in Sections 4.01 and 4.02 shall accrue as to any Mortgage Loan
upon (i) discovery of such breach by Purchaser or notice thereof by the
Originator to Purchaser, (ii) failure by the Originator to cure such breach or
to repurchase or substitute such Mortgage Loan as specified above, and (iii)
demand upon the Originator by Purchaser for compliance with the relevant
provisions of this Agreement.
ARTICLE V
Covenants and Warranties of Originators
So long as this Agreement remains in effect or any Originator
has obligations hereunder, each Originator hereby covenants and agrees with
Purchaser as follows:
Section 5.01 Affirmative Covenants.
(a) Such Originator shall do all things necessary to remain
duly incorporated, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its
jurisdiction of incorporation and to maintain all requisite authority to conduct
its business in each jurisdiction in which its business is conducted except
where failure to maintain such authority would not have a material adverse
effect on the ability of such Originator to conduct its business or to perform
its obligations under this Agreement.
(b) At all times during this Agreement, such Originator shall
possess sufficient net capital and liquid assets (or ability to access the same)
to satisfy its obligations as they become due in the normal course of business.
(c) Such Originator shall permit Purchaser, its Assignees and
their respective accountants, attorneys and other agents access to all of the

Agreement or any rights hereunder, without first obtaining the specific written
consent of Purchaser.
(b) Such Originator shall not amend its articles of
incorporation, articles of association or charter or its by-laws if such
amendment shall have or is likely to have an adverse effect upon Purchaser or
its interests under this Agreement, without the prior written consent of
Purchaser.
(c) Such Originator shall not (i) dissolve or terminate its
existence or (ii) transfer any assets to any affiliate except in the ordinary
course of its business or as otherwise expressly permitted or contemplated
hereby.
(d) Such Originator will not commit any act in violation of
applicable laws or regulations promulgated pursuant thereto that relate to the
Mortgage Loans or that materially and adversely affect the operations or
financial conditions of such Originator.
ARTICLE VI

after the sale of the Mortgage Loans by the Originators to Purchaser as provided

assign, transfer, convey and set over to Holding all of Purchaser's right, title
and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans (including the other rights and
properties conveyed to it hereunder), (ii) immediately after the sale of the
Mortgage Loans by Purchaser to Holding, pursuant to the Sale and Servicing
Agreement, Holding will sell, assign, transfer, convey and set over to the Trust
all of Holding's right, title and interest in and to the Mortgage Loans, and
(iii) immediately after the sale of the Mortgage Loans by Holding to the Trust
as described above, pursuant to the Indenture, the Trust will Grant to the
Indenture Trustee all of the Trust's right, title and interest in and to the
Mortgage Loans.
With respect to each such sale or other transfer, each
Originator hereby agrees:

Holding, the Trust and the Indenture Trustee with respect to all reasonable
requests and due diligence procedures, including participating in meetings with
rating agencies, insurers and such other parties as Purchaser shall designate
and participating in meetings with Purchaser's Assignees, Holding and the Trust
and providing information reasonably requested by Purchaser's Assignees, Holding
and the Trust;
(b) to execute all other necessary documents to effect the
transactions contemplated therein;
10
15

herein regarding such Originator and the Mortgage Loans as of the date of the
transfer to Holding and/or the Trust;
(d) to deliver to Purchaser for inclusion in any prospectus or
other offering material such publicly available information regarding (i) such
Originator, (ii) its financial condition, (iii) the mortgage loan delinquency,
foreclosure and loss experience of its portfolio as is customarily set forth in
a prospectus supplement with respect to a comparable mortgage pool, (iv) the
underwriting guidelines for mortgage loans, (v) the servicer, (vi) the servicing
and collection practices regarding mortgage loans, and (vii) any additional
information reasonably requested by Purchaser, or as is otherwise reasonably
requested by Purchaser and which such Originator is capable of providing without
unreasonable effort or expense, and to indemnify Purchaser and its Assignees for
material misstatements or omissions contained in such information;
(e) to deliver to Purchaser, and to any Person designated by
Purchaser, such legal documents and in-house opinions of counsel as are
customarily delivered by originators and reasonably determined by Purchaser or

Purchaser, its Assignees and their respective officers, directors, agents and
employees (each, an "Indemnified Party") from and against any and all Losses
incurred by any of them relating to or resulting from:
(a) Any representation or warranty made by such Originator (or
any officers, employees or agents of such Originator) under or in connection

Article XVI of notice of the commencement of any action or other proceeding,
such Indemnified Party will, if a claim in respect thereof is to be made against
the indemnifying party under this Article XVI, notify the indemnifying party in
writing of the commencement thereof; but the omission so to notify the
indemnifying party will not relieve it from any liability that it may have to

party of the commencement thereof, the indemnifying party will be entitled to
participate therein, and to the extent that it may elect by written notice

indemnifying party and the Indemnified Party shall have reasonably concluded
that there may be legal defenses available to it and/or other Indemnified
Parties that are different from or additional to those available to the
indemnifying party, the Indemnified Party shall have the right to elect separate
counsel to assert such legal defenses and to otherwise participate in the
defense of such action on behalf of such Indemnified Party. Upon receipt of
notice from the indemnifying party to such Indemnified Party of its election so
to assume the defense of such action and approval by the Indemnified Party of
counsel, the indemnifying party will not be liable for any legal or other
expenses subsequently incurred by such Indemnified Party in connection with the
defense thereof, unless (i) the Indemnified Party shall have employed separate
counsel in connection with the assertion of legal defenses in accordance with
the proviso to the next preceding sentence (it being understood, however, that
the indemnifying party shall not be liable for the expenses of more than one
separate counsel representing the Indemnified Parties under this Article XVI who
are parties to such action), (ii) the indemnifying party shall have employed
counsel which is not satisfactory to the Indemnified Party to represent the
Indemnified Party within a reasonable time after notice of commencement of the
action or (iii) the indemnifying party has authorized the employment of counsel
for the Indemnified Party at the expense of the indemnifying party; and except
that, if clause (i) or (iii) is applicable, such liability shall only be in
respect of the counsel referred to in such clause (i) or (iii).

Each Originator makes the following representations and
warranties to Purchaser solely with respect to the Mortgage Loans conveyed by
such Originator hereunder. Such representations and warranties speak as of the
Closing Date for Initial Mortgage Loans or the Subsequent Transfer Date for
Subsequent Mortgage Loans, but shall survive the sale, transfer, and assignment
of such Mortgage Loans first to Holding and then to the Trust pursuant to the
Sale and Servicing Agreement and the pledge of such Mortgage Loans to the
Indenture Trustee pursuant to the Indenture:
(i) All of the original or certified documentation set forth
in the definition of Mortgage File and in Section 2.1(g)(i) of the Sale
and Servicing Agreement (including all material documents related
thereto) with respect to each Mortgage Loan has been or will be
delivered to the Indenture Trustee on the Closing Date for Initial
Mortgage Loans or the Subsequent Transfer Date for Subsequent Mortgage
Loans. All such documentation is true and accurate in all material
respects. Each of the documents and instruments specified to be
included therein has been duly executed and is in due and proper form,
and each such document or instrument is in a form generally acceptable
to prudent mortgage lenders that regularly originate or purchase or
sell mortgage loans comparable to the Mortgage Loans.
(ii) Each Mortgage Loan is being serviced by the Master
Servicer or a Master Servicer Affiliate.
(iii) During the period from origination to the Cut-Off Date
or Subsequent Cut-Off Date, as applicable, each Mortgage Loan has been
serviced in accordance with applicable law.
(iv) As of the Closing Date with respect to the Initial
Mortgage Loans, as of the Subsequent Cut-Off Date with respect to
Subsequent Mortgage Loans and as of the applicable Transfer Date with
respect to any Qualified Replacement Mortgage Loan, all action has been
taken to validly transfer and assign to the Purchaser all right, title
and interest of such Originator in and to such Mortgage Loans and all
other related property described in Section 2.01 (including the related
Additional Balances); and, in accordance with Article III, all action
has been taken to grant a security interest (as defined in the UCC as
in effect in New York) in such property to Purchaser, which, if the
Indenture Trustee maintains possession of the Mortgage File for each
such Mortgage Loan, shall constitute a first priority perfected
security interest in such property (to the extent that perfection can
be achieved by possession by or on behalf of a secured party), subject
to the effect of Section 9-306 of the UCC with respect to collections
on such Mortgage Loans that are deposited in the Accounts.
(v) As of the Closing Date with respect to the Initial
Mortgage Loans, as of the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to

Purchaser by the Originators pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof have not

Mortgage Loans, to sell, assign or transfer the same.
(viii) As of the Closing Date with respect to the Initial
Mortgage Loans, as of the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to
Subsequent Mortgage Loans and as of the applicable Transfer Date with
respect to any Qualified Replacement Mortgage Loan, there is no valid
offset, defense or counterclaim of any obligor under any Credit Line
Agreement or Mortgage relating to each such Mortgage Loan. Neither the
operation of any of the terms of any such Credit Line Agreement or any
such Mortgage nor the exercise of any right thereunder will render
either such Credit Line Agreement or such Mortgage unenforceable, in
whole or in part, nor subject to any right of rescission, set-off,
claim, 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.
(ix) As of the Cut-Off Date with respect to the Initial
Mortgage Loans, no Minimum Monthly Payment is more than 59 days
Delinquent (measured on a contractual basis) and no more than 0.60% (by
aggregate Cut-Off Date Principal Balance of the Initial Mortgage Loans)
were 30 to 59 days Delinquent (measured on a contractual basis).
(x) The weighted average remaining term to maturity of the
Initial Mortgage Loans as of the Cut-Off Date is approximately 272

Property (subject in the case of any Junior Mortgage Loan only to a
Senior Lien on such Mortgaged Property) and subject in all cases to the

regular mortgage lending activities, and except for liens for (i) real
estate taxes and special assessments not yet delinquent, (ii) income
taxes, (iii) any covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way,

delinquent tax or assessment lien or mechanic's lien on the related
Mortgaged Property, and each such Mortgaged Property is free of
substantial damage and is in good repair.

respect to each Mortgage Loan that is a Junior Mortgage Loan, a
lender's title insurance policy, issued in standard California Land
Title Association form or American Land Title Association form, or
other form acceptable in a particular jurisdiction by a title insurance
company authorized to transact business in the state in which the
related Mortgaged Property is situated, was issued on the date of
origination of such Mortgage Loan, and as of the Closing Date with
respect to the Initial Mortgage Loans, as of the Subsequent Transfer
Date with respect to the Subsequent Mortgage Loans and as of each
applicable Transfer Date with respect to any Qualified Replacement
Mortgage Loan, each such policy is valid and remains in full force and
effect, or a title search or guaranty of title customary in the

(xviii) As of the Closing Date with respect to the Initial
Mortgage Loans, as of the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to each

insolvency, reorganization, moratorium or other similar laws affecting
the enforcement of creditors' rights generally and by general
principles of equity (whether considered in a proceeding or action in
equity or at law),
A-3
26
and all parties to each Mortgage Loan had full legal capacity to
execute all documents relating to such Mortgage Loan and convey the
estate therein purported to be conveyed.
(xix) The terms of each Credit Line Agreement and each related
Mortgage have not been impaired, cancelled, subordinated, rescinded,
altered or modified in any material respect (except as set forth in the
Mortgage File or on the Schedule of Mortgage Loans), and the related
Mortgaged Property has not been released from the lien of the related
Mortgage, in whole or in part and no instrument has been executed that

total or partial condemnation of any Mortgaged Property relating to a
Mortgage Loan, nor is such a proceeding currently occurring, and each

customary and enforceable provisions which render the rights and
remedies of the holder thereof adequate for the realization against the

(A) in the case of a Mortgage designated as a deed of trust, by
trustee's sale and (B) otherwise by judicial foreclosure. To the best

foreclose the related Mortgage.

Mortgage Loans, as of the Subsequent Transfer Date with respect to the
Subsequent Mortgage Loans, and as of the applicable Transfer Date with

passage of time or with notice and the expiration of any grace or cure
period, would constitute a default, breach, violation or event of

by such title insurer) and which is part of the related Mortgage File

Mortgaged Property, or (2) the Master Servicer has obtained and will
maintain a blanket policy insuring against fire, flood and hazards of
extended coverage with respect to all of the Mortgage Loans
(xxxiii) With respect to any Mortgage Loan which is a Senior
Lien, such Originator has caused and will cause to be performed any and
all acts required to be performed to preserve the rights and remedies

with the credit underwriting guidelines of such Originator as in effect
on the date of origination.

applicable), to the best of such Originator's knowledge, such

agreements submitted by each Mortgagor for loan underwriting were not
falsified and contain no untrue statement of a material fact and do not
omit to state a material fact required to be stated therein or
necessary to make the information and the statements contained therein
not misleading.
(xxxviii)Except as previously disclosed in writing to the
