Addendum to Loan Purchase Agreement - Subprime

 

This Addendum, is made this 17th day of July , 2001 between

Countrywide Home Loans, Inc., (“Countrywide”) and HomeBanc Mortgage Corporation (“seller”)

to the Loan Purchase Agreement (“LPA” ) dated as of July 17, 2001

 

1. Definitions. The terms “Subprime Loan”, “Mortgage Loan Schedule”, “Commitment”, “Commitment Letter”, “Pool Commitment”, “Spot Commitment” and “Closing Date” shall have the meanings set forth therefor in the “Guide” (as defined below).

 

2. Commitment to Purchase Loans. The following is hereby added at the end of the first sentence of Section 2: “except that for the purposes of Subprime Loans, the procedure pursuant to which Seller may commit to sell a Subprime Loan to Country wide is detailed in the Subprime section of the Guide.”

 

3. Representations and Warranties.

 

  A. Section 6.A (7) is amended and restated in its entirety as follows: “All federal and state laws, rules and regulations applicable to the Loan for its applicable Loan Type have been complied with, including but not limited to: the Real Estate Settlement Procedures Act, the Flood Disaster Protection Act, the Federal Consumer Credit Protection Act including the Truth-in-Lending and Equal Credit Opportunity Acts, the Federal Fair Housing Act, the Home Ownership and Equity Protection Act of 1994 and all applicable federal and state statutes or regulations governing fraud, lack of consideration, unconscionability, consumer credit transactions, consumer protection, interest or other charges, licensing and mortgage insurance.”

 

  B. Section 6.B (1) is amended and restated in its entirety as follows: “Seller is duly organized, validly existing and in good standing under the laws of its state of incorporation and is qualified and/or licensed as necessary to transact business, including the originating and selling of each Loan, including without limitation, with rates of interest, loan type and other terms provided in the Loan documents, and is in good standing in each state where property securing a Loan is located.”

 

  C. Section 6.A (18) is added as follows: “For each Subprime Loan, all information regarding such Subprime Loan in the Confirmation therefor and the Mortgage loan Schedule attached to such Confirmation is true and correct.”

 

4. Purchase Limitation. The obligation to purchase any Subprime Loans identified in a Confirmation does not extend to any Loans that would violate any representation and warranty by Seller contained in the LPA.

 

5. Purchase Price. The purchase price of each Subprime Loan shall be calculated by multiplying the unpaid principal balance of each Subprime Loan (as adjusted for the borrower’s next payment) on the Closing Date by its applicable purchase price percentage calculated in accordance with the rate sheet at the time of purchase for “Spot” Commitments, or as stated in the Commitment letter for “Pool” Commitments (the “Purchase Price”). If a borrower’s payment is due 15 days or earlier after the Closing Date (an “Early Payment”), the portion of such payment attributable to principal shall be deducted from the unpaid principal balance for calculating the Purchase Price. Seller shall then retain borrower’s Early Payment when made. The purchase proceeds paid by Countrywide to Seller shall consist of the Purchase Price plus accrued interest as of the Closing Date and less (i) any positive escrow balances, and (ii) any amounts actually owed and paid by Seller for Mortgage Loan tax service contracts and flood certification determinations which are transferable and transferred to Countrywide on the Closing Date. Without limitation on Countrywide’s other rights here in, the Purchase Price is subject to change if it is determined that the loan characteristics of the Subprime Loan to be purchased differ from the characteristics represented on the Mortgage Loan Schedule

 

6. Premium Recapture. Should any Borrower prepay a Subprime Loan during the twelve month period following Countrywide’s purchase of the loan, Seller shall reimburse Countywide, upon demand, some or all of the purchase price premium above par paid by Countrywide. The reimbursement shall be calculated using the following formula for “Spot” commitments and “Pool” commitments unless stated otherwise in the “Pool” commitment letter:

 

Purchase price Premium

Paid by Countrywide

  X  

12 minus the number of months expired
since the date of purchase

12

    Prepay
Penalty
  =    Premium
Refund

 

7. Seller’s Repurchase Obligations. Section 7.A (4) is amended and restated in its entirety as follows: “If the first payment due Countrywide is not received by Countrywide, whether from the borrower directly or forwarded by Seller if the Borrower has submitted the payment to Seller, within 90 days of the first payment due Countrywide. For this purpose a Borrower shall be considered to be 90 days delinquent with respect to the first monthly payment due Countrywide if the payment is not received by Countrywide

within three months of the payment due date, regardless of the number of days in the month. For example, if the due date of the first payment due to Countrywide is January 15th and the Borrower has not made his/her January 15th payment by April 14th, the Borrower shall be considered 90 days delinquent with respect to the January 15th payment. Seller shall not have the right to advance funds for or on behalf of a Borrower for any delinquent payment or to otherwise make funds available to any Borrower to avoid or cure a default by the Borrower. A payment for which Countrywide deducted funds at the time it purchased the Loan from Seller shall not be considered the first payment due Countrywide.”

 

8. Repurchase Price. For the purposes of determining the repurchase price of a Subprime Loan, Sections 8.A(4), 8.B(4) and 8.C(4) are deleted, and Sections 8.A(1), 8.B(1) and 8.C(1) are amended and restated in their entirety as follows: “The repurchase price shall be the original Purchase Price (as defined in this Addendum), less principal reduction made since the Closing Date.”

 

9. Sellers Guide. All references to “Countrywide’s Correspondent Lender Division Loan Purchase Program Seller’s Manual” or “Manual” throughout the LPA are replaced with “Countrywide’s Correspondent Lending Seller’s Guide” or “Guide”, respectfully. Seller acknowledges receipt of the Guide, which may be amended, modified or supplemented from time to time by Countrywide, in its sole and absolute discretion, which amendments, modifications or supplements shall be effective upon Countrywide’s sending the same to Seller.

 

10. Brokers. Neither party has employed or otherwise engaged, nor shall employ, or otherwise engage, any broker or finder in connection with the negotiation or execution of the LPA, this Addendum or any Commitment, nor with respect to the transactions contemplated by this Addendum, in such a manner as to give rise to any claim, against any party, for any brokerage commission, finder’s fee or similar payment. Each party shall indemnify and defend the other party for any claims for brokerage commission, finder’s fee or similar payment based upon statements or agreements alleged to have been made by the indemnifying party.
