Eastern Time on the Closing Date, Buyer will pay the Purchase Price for 100% of the Mortgage Loans to be purchased hereunder to Seller via wire transfer in immediately available funds to the account specified in writing by Seller.

Section 2.05 Transfer as Sale. It is the express intent of the parties hereto that the conveyance of the Mortgage Loans by Seller to Buyer as contemplated by this Agreement be construed as a sale of the Mortgage Loans by Seller to Buyer.
