“4.7 Application of Payments from Seller or Approved Investors. Unless Buyer determines otherwise, payments made directly by Seller or an Approved Investor to Buyer shall be applied in the following order of priority:

 

  (a) first, to any amounts due and owing to Buyer pursuant to Section 6.3.

 

  (b) second, to all costs, expenses and fees incurred or charged by Buyer under this Agreement that are due and owing and related to the Transaction in connection with which the payment is made;

 

  (c) third, to all costs, expenses and fees incurred or charged by Buyer under this Agreement that are due and owing and not related to a specific Transaction;

 

  (d) fourth, to the price differential then due and owing and the outstanding Purchase Price, in each case, on the Purchased Asset in connection with which the payment is made;

 

  (e) fifth, to the price differential due and owing and the outstanding Purchase Prices, in each case, on any other Purchased Assets; and

 

  (f) sixth, to the amount of all other obligations then due and owing by Seller to Buyer under this Agreement and the other Principal Agreements.

If the interim servicing period expires with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan for any reason other than Seller repurchasing such Purchased Mortgage Loan, then such interim servicing period shall automatically terminate if not renewed by Buyer; provided, that Buyer shall be deemed to have renewed such interim servicing term if Buyer enters into a new Transaction in respect of such Purchased Mortgage Loan. In connection with any such renewal, Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, shall continue to interim service the Purchased Mortgage Loan for a thirty (30) day extension period. Absent any such extension of the interim servicing period, Seller or the Servicer, as applicable, shall transfer servicing of the Mortgage Loan to Buyer or its designee in accordance with the instructions of Buyer and any other applicable requirements of this Agreement. For the avoidance of doubt, upon expiration of the interim servicing period (including the expiration of any extension period) with respect to any Purchased Mortgage Loan, Seller shall have no right to service the related Purchased Mortgage Loan nor shall Buyer have any obligation to extend the interim servicing period (or continue to extend the interim servicing period), it being understood that upon such expiration, Seller shall promptly transfer the servicing of the related Purchased Mortgage Loan to Buyer or its designee in accordance with the instructions of Buyer and any other applicable requirements of this Agreement.

Following approval by Buyer of a specific insurance policy, Seller shall not amend, cancel, suspend or otherwise change such policy without the prior written consent of Buyer.”

  (e) Section 11.1 is hereby amended by deleting 11.1(h) and replacing it with the following (with the added language underlined for ease of review):
