Mortgage Loans”), or (z) a combination, to the extent (if any) acceptable to Buyer, of cash and Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans, so that immediately after such transfer(s) the sum of (i) such cash, if any, so transferred to Buyer plus (ii) the aggregate of the Margin Amounts of all Purchased Mortgage Loans for all Transactions outstanding at that time, including any such Additional Purchased Mortgage Loans, will be at least equal to the sum of the Repurchase Prices of all Purchased Mortgage Loans then subject to outstanding Transactions.
B.    Section 4(c) of the Amended MRA is amended in its entirety to read as follows:
    (c)    Margin Excess.
