ARTICLE III.
 

 
REPRESENTATIONS AND WARRANTIES; REMEDIES FOR BREACH
 
Section 3.01      Seller Representations and Warranties Relating to the Mortgage Loans . The Seller hereby represents and warrants to the Purchaser, with respect to the Mortgage Loans, that as of the Closing Date or as of such date specifically provided herein:
 
(a)    The information set forth in the Mortgage Loan Schedule is complete, true and correct in all material respects as of the Cut-off Date.
 
(b)    Seller is the sole owner and holder of the Mortgage Loans free and clear of any liens, pledges, except for the pledge of the Mortgage note by Seller with a warehouse lender disclosed to Purchaser, charges or security interest of any nature, and has full right and authority to sell and assign the same.
 
(c)    With respect to each Mortgage Loan that is not a Co-op Loan, the Mortgage is a valid, existing and enforceable first (or, if indicated by Seller, second) lien on the Mortgaged Property, including all improvements on the Mortgaged Property subject only to (i) the lien of current real property taxes and assessments not yet due and payable, (ii) covenants, conditions and restrictions, rights of way, easements and other matters of the public record as of the date of recording being acceptable to Mortgage lending institutions generally and specifically referred to in the owner’s title insurance policy delivered to the originator of the Mortgage Loan and (x) specifically referred to or otherwise considered in the appraisal made for the originator of the Mortgage Loan or (y) which do not adversely affect the appraised value of the Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan), (iii) other matters to which like properties are commonly subject which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security intended to be provided by the Mortgage or the use, enjoyment, value or marketability of the related Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) (iv) with respect to a second lien only, the lien of the first mortgage on 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, existing and enforceable first (or, if indicated by Seller, second)
 
 
4

 
lien and first (or if indicated by Seller, second) priority security interest on the property described therein and the Seller has the full right to sell and assign the same to Purchaser. With respect to each Co-op Loan, the related Mortgage is a valid, subsisting and enforceable first priority security interest on the related cooperative shares securing the Mortgage note, subject only to (i) liens of the related residential cooperative housing corporation for unpaid assessments representing the borrower’s pro rata share of the related residential cooperative housing corporation’s payment for its blanket Mortgage, current and future real property taxes, insurance premiums, maintenance fees and other assessments to which like collateral is commonly subject and (ii) other matters to which like collateral is commonly subject to which do not materially interfere with the benefits of the security interest intended to be provided by the related security agreement.
 
(d)    The Mortgage Loan is not in default and all monthly payments due prior to the transaction have been paid and all taxes, assessments and insurance premiums, water, sewer and municipal charges, leasehold payments or ground rents relating to the property secured by the Mortgage Loan have been paid. Seller has not advanced funds or induced or solicited any advances or funds by a party other than a borrower directly or indirectly, for the payment of any amounts required by the Mortgage loans.
 
(e)    With respect to escrow deposits and escrow payments, all such payments are in the possession of Seller and there exist no deficiencies in connection therewith for which customary arrangements for repayment thereof have not been made.
 
(f)    The terms of the Mortgage Note and Mortgage have not been impaired, waived, altered or modified in any respect from the date of origination, except by a written instrument which has been recorded, if necessary to protect the interest of Purchaser, and which has been delivered to Purchaser or to such other person as Purchaser shall designate in writing. The substance of any such waiver, alteration or modification has been approved by the issuer of any related private mortgage insurance policy and the title insurer, if any, to the extent required by the policy. No borrower has been released, in whole or in part, except in connection with an assumption agreement, approved by the issuer of any related private mortgage insurance policy and the title insurer, to the extent required by the policy, and which assumption agreement is part of the mortgage file delivered to Purchaser or to such other person as Purchaser shall designate in writing.
 
(g)    The Mortgage Loan is not subject to any right of rescission, set-off, counter claim or defense and is not unenforceable under any terms. The Mortgage note, the Mortgage and any other agreement executed and delivered by a borrower or guarantor, if applicable, are genuine, legal, valid, binding and enforceable obligations of the maker thereof. All parties to the Mortgage note and any other agreement executed and delivered by a borrower or guarantor, if applicable, had legal capacity to execute such documents and all such documents have, in fact, been properly executed by such parties.
 
(h)    The Mortgage Loan has not been satisfied, cancelled, subordinated or rescinded, in whole or in part (other than as to principal prepayments in full which may have been received prior to the transaction date), and the Mortgaged Property has not been released
 
 
5

 
from the lien of the Mortgage, in whole or in part, nor has any instrument been executed that would effect any such satisfaction, cancellation, subordination, rescission or release.
 
(i)    The Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) and all improvements thereon are insured against loss by fire and other such hazards as are customary in the area where the Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) is located. Such coverage shall contain fire and hazard insurance policy with extended coverage as called for under the Seller’s guide. Such insurance policy and any other insurance policy related to the Mortgage Loan or the Mortgaged Property (or underlying Mortgaged Property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) contains a standard Mortgagee clause naming Seller and its successors and assigns as Mortgagee and loss payee. Each Mortgage obligates the borrower there under to maintain such insurance at their costs and expense and allows the Mortgagee to obtain and maintain such insurance at borrower’s costs and expense, and to seek reimbursement from the borrower should there be any failure by the borrower to maintain such policy. If any flood insurance is required by applicable law or pursuant to the Mortgage Loan documents or any other applicable requirement, then it has been obtained and in full force and effect. Any statements made by the borrower or the Seller in applications for such policies were true, complete and correct at the time the application was made and there are no events that have occurred since that policy was issued that would affect the stated coverage of the policy.
 
(j)    Any and all requirements of any federal, state or local law which include, but are not limited to usury, truth-in-lending, real estate settlement procedures, disclosure laws, consumer credit protection and equal credit opportunity have been complied with.
 
(k)    The proceeds of the Mortgage Loan have been fully disbursed and there is no requirement or anticipation of future advances there under (other than any escrow holdbacks retained pursuant to the terms of a related construction loan). All costs, fees and expenses incurred in making, closing or recording the Mortgage Loan have been paid.
 
(l)    Each Mortgage Loan that is not a Co-op Loan is covered by an ALTA lender’s title insurance policy or other generally acceptable form of policy, or with respect to any mortgage loan for which the related mortgaged property is located in California, a CLTA lender’s title insurance policy, or insurance acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac, issued by a title insurer acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac and qualified to do business in the jurisdiction where the Mortgaged Property is located, insuring (subject to the exceptions contained in paragraph (c) above) the Seller, its successors and assigns, as to the first (or, if indicated by Seller, second) priority lien of the Mortgage in the original principal amount of the Mortgage Loan, subject only to the exceptions contained in clauses (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) of paragraph (c) of this Section 3.01, and in this case of adjustable rate mortgage loans, against any loss by reason of the invalidity or unenforcability of the lien resulting from the provisions of the mortgage providing for adjustment to the mortgage interest rate and monthly payment.  Where required by applicable state law or regulation, the Mortgagor has been given the opportunity to choose the carrier of the required mortgage title insurance.  The Seller, its successors and assigns, are the sole insureds of such lender’s title insurance policy and such lender’s title insurance policy is in full force and effect and will be in full force and effect upon the consummation of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement.  No claims have been made

under such lender’s title insurance policy, and no prior holder of the related Mortgage, including the Seller, has done, by act or omission, anything which would impair the coverage of such lender’s title insurance policy.
 
(m)    There is no default, breach, violation, anticipated breach or event of acceleration existing under the Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note and no existing or known 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 of acceleration under such Mortgage or the related Mortgage Note.
 
(n)    At settlement of the Mortgage Loan, and, to the Seller’s knowledge as of the transaction date, there were no mechanic’s liens or claims for work, labor or material affecting the Mortgaged Property (or the related residential dwelling unit at the underlying mortgaged property, in the case of a Co-op Loan) which are or may be a lien prior to the lien of such Mortgage except those which are insured against by the title insurance policy.
 
(o)    With respect to each mortgage loan, which is not a Co-op Loan, 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 except for de minimis encroachments permitted by the Fannie Mae Guide and which have been noted on the appraisal or the title policy affirmatively insures against loss or damage by reason of any violation, variation or encroachment or adverse circumstance which is either disclosed or would have been disclosed by an accurate survey, 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 or are acceptable under Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac guidelines and all improvements on the property comply with all applicable zoning and subdivision laws and ordinances.
 
(p)    Except for approximately 0.04% of the Mortgage Loans, by aggregate stated principal balance as of the Cut-off Date, each Mortgage Loan substantially complies with all the terms, conditions and requirements of Seller’s standards in effect at the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan.  With respect to the remaining Mortgage Loans, each such Mortgage Loan complies with all the terms, conditions and requirements of the related originator’s standards in effect at the time of origination of such Mortgage Loan.  The Mortgage Notes and Mortgages (exclusive of any riders) are on forms generally acceptable to Fannie Mae or Freddie Mac.
 
(q)    The Mortgaged Property is not subject to any material damage by waste, fire, earthquake, windstorm, flood or other casualty.  At origination of the Mortgage Loan there was, and there currently is, no proceeding pending for the total or partial condemnation of the Mortgaged Property.  To the best of the Seller’s knowledge there are no such proceedings s
