     The representations and warranties of Seller in this Agreement are made as of the Effective Date and are remade as of the date of Closing and shall survive the Closing.

     8. Termination, Default and Remedies.

          (a) Buyer Default. If Buyer fails or refuses to consummate the purchase of the Loans pursuant to this Agreement at the Closing for any reason, other than termination of this Agreement (in whole or in part) by Buyer pursuant to a right to so terminate expressly set forth in this Agreement or Seller’s failure to perform Seller’s obligations under this Agreement, or if prior to or at Closing, Seller discovers that Buyer has failed to timely perform any of its other obligations hereunder or that any of Buyer representations or warranties contained in this Agreement are not true or accurate as of the date made or on the Closing Date and Buyer fails to cure such non-performance or non-compliance within three (3) Business Days after written notice from Seller, then, such event shall constitute a default by Buyer hereunder and Seller may terminate this Agreement by giving written notice to Buyer prior to or at the Closing, whereupon neither party hereto shall have any further right or obligation hereunder, other than the “Survival Obligations” (which, for purposes of this Agreement, shall be deemed to mean those rights and obligations which by their terms expressly survive the Closing or the termination of this Agreement).

Upon such Redemption and payment of the Repurchase Price, neither party hereto shall have any further rights or obligations under this Agreement with respect to such Non-Compliant Loan, Loan Document and/or Property, except for any applicable Survival Obligations. Notwithstanding the foregoing, in the event such breach of the Section 7 representations and warranties consists of a breach of Section 7(e)(iii) with respect to missing Loan Documents, Section 7(e)(xii) with respect to insurance policies in connection with any Loan, Section 7(e)(xiii)(J) with respect to flood insurance, or Section 7(j) with respect to hazard insurance, Seller shall have a cure period of twenty (20) days in lieu of the ten (10) Business Day period set forth herein above; provided, however, if the applicable underlying Property securing the Loan experiences a casualty or flood, Buyer shall have the right to an immediate Redemption pursuant to the terms of this Section 8(c).

LOAN SALE AND TRANSFER OF SERVICING AGREEMENT

Documents to be sold and purchased under this Agreement, are hereby amended to un-cross such cross-default and exclude any loans not constituting part of the Notes and Loan Documents and that neither the Notes or any of the Loan Documents shall be cross-defaulted with any loans and loan documents not constituting part of the Notes and Loan Documents sold and purchased pursuant to the terms of this Agreement.  Further, Seller and Buyer agree that each “Cross-Collateral Agreement” (or similar agreement) and  each “Cross-Collateralization Rider” (or similar rider) attached to a promissory note, loan agreement or mortgage or deed of trust or other security agreement covering loans with borrowers not part of the Loan Documents to be sold and purchased under this Agreement, are hereby amended to un-cross such cross-collateralization of any security interests, liens, or other interests in any collateral securing the Loans sold to Buyer.

The parties hereto intend that the conveyances hereunder be a sale of the Loans and Loan Documents from Seller to Buyer and not a financing secured by such assets; and the beneficial interest in and title to the Loans or the Loan Documents shall not be included as part of Seller’s estate in the event of the commencement of insolvency proceedings by or against Seller under applicable insolvency laws.

In furtherance of the foregoing, Seller hereby authorizes Buyer to file, or cause to be filed, as a protective measure and not in contravention of the intent of the parties to effect a true sale of assets hereunder, any and all UCC-1 financing statements and other filings as Buyer may deem necessary in order to perfect the first priority security interest granted pursuant to this Section 16.

     17. Related Loans. The parties hereto acknowledge and agree that it is the intent of Buyer to purchase, and the intent of Seller to sell, any and all additional loans related to the Loans acquired in connection herewith.  Therefore, Seller (i) covenants and agrees, within ten (10) days after the Closing (the “Related Loan Review Period”), to review its records, loan files and other relevant data to determine the existence and nature of any loans held by it, the borrower of which is the same Person as the borrower under any Loan or the affiliate or principal of a borrower under any Loan (a “Related Loan”) and (ii) hereby grants to Buyer the exclusive option to purchase one or more of the Related Loans for the Related Loan Purchase Price (as defined below).   In the event Seller discovers any Related Loans, it shall, prior to the expiration of the Related Loan Review Period, notify Buyer in writing of same and provide Buyer with copies of all loan documents and Evaluation Material with respect to the Related Loans.  Seller

LOAN SALE AND TRANSFER OF SERVICING AGREEMENT

shall have thirty (30) days after receipt of such written notice (the “Purchase Option Period”) to conduct Inspections of the Related Loans.  In the event Buyer elects to exercise its option to purchase one or more of the Related Loans, it shall deliver written notice to Seller prior to the expiration of the Purchase Option Period identifying any or all of the Related Loans it intends to purchase.  Buyer’s failure to deliver to Seller such written notice prior to the expiration of the Purchase Option Period shall operate to terminate its purchase option set forth in this Section 17.   The parties agree to consummate the sale and purchase of the Related Loans as soon as reasonably practical but in no event more than three (3) Business Days after the expiration of the Purchase Option Period.  At the closing, Buyer shall convey to Seller the Related Loan Purchase by wire transfer in immediately available funds and Seller shall deliver to Buyer all of the items described in Section 10(b)(ii)(A)-(H) hereof.  Seller hereby incorporates by reference and hereby makes all of the representations and warranties set forth in Section 7 hereof with respect to any Related Loans acquired hereunder.  Such acquired Related Loans will be subject to the redemption provisions set forth in Section 8(c) hereof. In that regard, the Redemption Period with respect to any acquired Related Loans shall commence upon the date of Buyer’s acquisition of such Related Loans, as opposed to the Closing Date. As used herein, the term “Related Loan Purchase Price” shall mean an amount equal to the outstanding principal balance of the Related Loans to be acquired, plus all outstanding interest accrued thereon as of the date of the consummation of such purchase. 

     18. Solicitation.

          (a) Seller hereby acknowledges and agrees that, after the Closing, Buyer and its Affiliates shall have the unrestricted right to target and solicit deposits, loans and other products and services from and to Persons whose Loans were acquired pursuant to this Agreement, whether by personal contact, telephone, facsimile, mail or otherwise.

Buyer covenants and agrees that, following the Closing, neither it nor its Affiliates shall reference any of the transactions contemplated by this Agreement in a manner that intentionally disparages Seller or the business of Seller.

          (c) This Section 18 shall survive the Closing and the obligations under this Section 18 will survive and apply to any successor of the parties hereto whether by merger, acquisition, stock purchase, asset purchase or similar business combination transaction.

     19. Severability. If any clause or provision of this Agreement is held to be illegal, invalid or unenforceable under any law applicable to the terms hereof, then the remainder of this

LOAN SALE AND TRANSFER OF SERVICING AGREEMENT

Agreement shall not be affected thereby, and in lieu of each such clause or provision of this Agreement that is illegal, invalid or unenforceable, such clause or provision shall be judicially construed and interpreted to be as similar in substance and content to such illegal, invalid or unenforceable clause or provision, as the context thereof would reasonably suggest, so as to thereafter be legal, valid and enforceable.

     20. Time of the Essence. Time is of the essence in the execution and performance of this Agreement and of each provision hereof.
