    (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;

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;

(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;
