No Mortgage Loan shall be an Eligible Loan at any time:

     (2) That contains or is otherwise subject to any contractual restriction or prohibition on the free transferability of such Mortgage Loan, all Liens securing it and all related rights (other than Legal Requirements requiring notification to its obligor(s) of any transfer of it or of its servicing or administration), either absolutely or as security.

The Agent,

Buyers and Custodian may rely on a Seller’s representation and warranty that no Purchased Loan is such a loan.

     (15) That a Seller or any Affiliate sold and transferred, or attempted to sell and transfer, to any other Person; provided, that a Purchased Loan shall not cease to be an Eligible Loan as a result of the return of such Purchased Loan by an Investor to which it was shipped by the Custodian.
