Any repurchase or substitution of a Mortgage Loan pursuant to the foregoing sentence shall occur in accordance with the provisions of Section 2.03 of the Pooling and Servicing Agreement

In addition to such cure, repurchase and substitution obligations, each Seller shall indemnify the Purchaser and its assigns and hold it harmless against any out-of-pocket losses, penalties, fines, forfeitures, reasonable and necessary legal fees (including, without limitation, legal fees incurred in connection with the enforcement of such Seller’s indemnification obligation under this Section 6.03) and related costs, judgments, and other costs and expenses resulting from any claim, demand, defense or assertion arising from or relating to, a breach of such Seller’s representations and warranties contained in this Agreement. Without limiting the generality of the foregoing, if a breach of the representation set forth in Sections 6.01(d) or (w) occurs as a result of a violation of the applicable predatory or abusive lending law, the applicable Seller shall re imburse the Purchaser for all costs and damages incurred by the Purchaser and its assigns as a result of the violation of such law (such amount, the “Reimbursement Amount”).

Further, each Seller hereby covenants to forward promptly to the Servicer a copy of each legal notice it receives with respect to any Mortgage Loan.

It is understood and agreed that the obligations of the Sellers set forth in this Section 6.03 to cure, repurchase or substitute for a defective Mortgage Loan and/or to indemnify the Purchaser and its assigns constitute the sole remedies of the Purchaser respecting a breach of the representations and warranties set forth in Sections 6.01 and 6.02. In addition, if a Seller fails to cure any materially defective or missing document in a Mortgage File within the time period set forth in Section 5, the Seller shall either repurchase or substitute for such Mortgage Loan as set forth above.

Notwithstanding the immediately preceding paragraph, to the extent a Seller fails to repurchase a deficient Mortgage Loan or substitute for a Deleted Mortgage Loan as required by this Section 6.03, the Guarantor shall repurchase such deficient Mortgage Loan or substitute a Eligible Substitute Mortgage Loan for such Deleted Mortgage Loan pursuant to the same terms and conditions set forth in this Section 6.03.

INTENTION OF THE PARTIES.

It is the intention of the parties that the Purchaser is purchasing, and the Sellers are selling, the Mortgage Loans and not a debt instrument of the Sellers or another security. Accordingly, the parties hereto each intend to treat the transaction for federal income tax purposes as a sale by the Sellers, and a purchase by the Purchaser, of the Mortgage Loans. The Purchaser shall have the right to review the Mortgage Loans and the related Mortgage Files to determine the characteristics of the Mortgage Loans which shall affect the federal income tax consequences of owning the Mortgage Loans and each Seller shall cooperate with all reasonable requests made by the Purchaser in the course of such review.

The parties hereto intend that the transfer by each Seller to the Purchaser of the Mortgage Loans pursuant to this Agreement shall be, and be construed as, a sale of the Mortgage Loans by such Seller to the Purchaser. It is not intended that such transfer be deemed to be the grant of a security interest in the Mortgage Loans by any Seller to the Purchaser to secure a debt or other obligation of any Seller. However, in the event that the Mortgage Loans are held to be property of any Seller, or if for any reason this Agreement is held or deemed to create a security interest in the Mortgage Loans, then (a) this Agreement shall constitute a security agreement; and (b) the transfers provided for in this Agreement shall be deemed to be a grant by each Seller to the Purchaser of, and each Seller hereby grants to the Purchaser, to secure all of such Seller’s obligations hereunder, a security interest in all of such Seller’s right, title, and interest, whether now owned or hereafter acquired, in, to, and under the Mortgage Loans and all proceeds thereof
