Agreements . The Seller, concurrently with the execution and
delivery of this Agreement, does hereby sell, assign, set over, and
otherwise convey to the Purchaser, without recourse, all of its
right, title and interest in, to and under (i) each Mortgage
Loan, including the related Cut-Off Date Principal Balance, all
interest due thereon after the Cut-Off Date and all collections in
respect of interest and principal due after the Cut-Off Date (and
all principal received before the Cut-Off Date to the extent such

been acquired by foreclosure or deed in lieu of foreclosure;
(iii) its interest in any insurance policies in respect of the
Mortgage Loans; (iv) any Additional Collateral with respect to
the Mortgage Loans; and (v) all proceeds of any of the
foregoing.
Concurrently
with the execution and delivery of this Agreement, the Seller
hereby assigns to the Purchaser all of its rights and interest (but
none of its obligations) under each Servicing Agreement, other than
any servicing rights retained pursuant to the provisions of such
Servicing Agreements, to the extent relating to the Mortgage Loans.
The Purchaser hereby accepts such assignment, and shall be entitled
to exercise all such rights of the Seller under each Servicing
Agreement as if the Purchaser had been a party to each such
agreement.
Section 2.02.
Obligations of the Seller Upon Sale and Assignment . In
connection with the transfer pursuant to Section 2.01 hereof,
the Seller further agrees, at its own expense, on or prior to the
Closing Date, (a) to indicate in its books and records that
the Mortgage Loans have been sold to the Purchaser pursuant to this
Agreement and (b) to deliver to the Purchaser and the Trustee
a computer file containing a true and complete list of all such
Mortgage Loans specifying for each such Mortgage Loan, as of the
Cut-Off Date, (i) its account number and (ii) the Cut-Off
Date Principal Balance and such file, which forms a part of
Schedule A to the Pooling and Servicing Agreement, shall also
be marked as Schedule I to this Agreement and is hereby
incorporated into and made a part of this Agreement.
In
connection with such conveyance by the Seller, the Seller shall on
behalf of the Purchaser deliver to, and deposit with the Trustee,
as assignee of the Purchaser, on or before the Closing Date, the
documents described in Section 2.01 of the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement including, but not limited to, the Servicing
Agreements.
The
Seller hereby confirms to the Purchaser and the Trustee that it has
made the appropriate entries in its general accounting records, to
indicate that the Mortgage Loans have been transferred to the
Trustee, or a custodian appointed pursuant to the Pooling and
Servicing Agreement to act on behalf of the Trustee, and that the
Mortgage Loans constitute part of the Trust in accordance with the
terms of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement.
2
The
Purchaser hereby acknowledges its acceptance of all right, title
and interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans and other
property, and its rights under the Servicing Agreements, now
existing or hereafter created, conveyed to it pursuant to
Section 2.01 hereof.
The
parties hereto intend that the transaction set forth herein be a
non-recourse sale by the Seller to the Purchaser of all of the
Seller’s right, title and interest in, to and under the
Mortgage Loans and other property described in Section 2.01.
Nonetheless, in the event the transaction set forth herein is
deemed not to be a sale, the Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser
a security interest in all of the Seller’s right, title and
interest in, to and under the Mortgage Loans and other property
described in Section 2.01, whether now existing or hereafter
created, to secure all of the Seller’s obligations hereunder;
and this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement under
applicable law. The Seller and the 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 will be maintained as such
throughout the term of the Pooling and Servicing
Agreement.
Section 2.03.
Payment of Purchase Price for the Mortgage Loans . In
consideration of the sale of the Mortgage Loans from the Seller to
the Purchaser on the Closing Date, the Purchaser agrees to pay to
the Seller on the Closing Date by transfer of immediately available
funds, an amount equal to $1,079,707,050.53 (which amount includes
accrued interest) (the “ Purchase Price ”). The
Seller shall pay, and be billed directly for, the amounts set forth
in the Thornburg Securitization Engagement Letter dated
October 18, 2001, including all reasonable expenses incurred
by the Purchaser in connection with the issuance of the
Certificates, including, without limitation, printing fees incurred
in connection with the Prospectus Supplement and the Memorandum
relating to the Certificates, fees and expenses of
