Borrower may choose the insurance carrier providing the Insurance, subject to Lender's right to disapprove Borrower's choice, which right will not be exercised unreasonably. (b) Failure to Maintain insurance. If Lender has a reasonable basis to believe that Borrower has failed to maintain any of the required insurance coverages described above, Lender may obtain insurance coverage, at Lender's option and at Borrower's expense. Unless required by Applicable Law, Lender is under no obligation to advance premiums for, or to seek to reinstato, any prior lapsed coverage obtained by Borrower. Lender Is under no obligation to purchase any particular type or amount of coverage and may select the provider of such insurance in its sole discretion.

Any such coverage will insure Lender, but might not protect Borrower, Borrowers equity in the Property, or the contents of the Property, against any risk, hazard, or liability and might provide greater or lesser coverage than was previously in effect, but not exceeding the coverage required under Section 5(a). Borrower acknowledges that the cost of the insurance coverage so obtained may significantly exceed the cost of insurance that Borrower could have obtained.

(d) Proof of Loss, Application of Proceeds. In the event of loss, Borrower must give prompt notice to the insurance carrier and Lender. Lender may make proof of loss if riot made promptly by Borrower. Any insurance proceeds, whether or not the underlying insurance was required by Vender, will be applied to restoration or repair of the Property, if Lender deems the restoration or repair to be economically feasible and determines that Lender's security will not be lessened by such restoration or repair. If the Property is to be repaired or restored, Lender will disburse from the insurance proceeds any initial amounts that are necessary to begin the repair or restoration, subject to any restrictions applicable to Lender. During the subse- quent repair and restoration period, Lender will have the right to hold such insurance proceeds until Lender has had an opportunity to inspect such Property to ensure the work has been completed to Lenders satisfaction (which may include satisfying Lender's minimum eligibility requirements for persons repairing the Property, including, but riot limited to, licensing, bond, and insurance requirements) provided that such inspection must be undertaken promptly. Lender may disburse proceeds toy the repairs and restoration in a single payment or in a series of progress payments as the work is completed, depending on the size of the repair or restoration, the terms of the repair agreement, and whether Borrower is in Default on the Loan. Lender may make such disbursements directly to Borrower, to the person repairing or restor- ing the Property, or payable jointly to both. Lender will not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings on such insurance proceeds unless Lender and Borrower agree in writing or Applicable Law requires otherwise. Fees for public adjusters, or other third parties, retained by Borrower will not be paid out of the Insurance proceeds and will be the sole obligation of Borrower. It Lender deems the restoration or repair not to be economically feasible or Lender's 5eeurity would be lessened by such restoration or repair, the insurance proceeds will be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, with the excess, if any, paid to Borrower. Such insurance proceeds will be applied in the order that Partial Payments are applied in Section 2(b). (e) Insurance Settlements; Assignment of Proceeds. If Borrower abandons the Property, Lender may file, negoti- ate, and settle any available insurance claim and related matters. If Borrower does not respond within 30 days to a notice from Lender that the insurance carrier has offered to settle a claim, then Lender may negotiate and settle the cWm. The 30-day period will begin when the notice is given. in either event, or if Lender acquires the Property under Section 26 or otherwise, Borrower is unconditionally assigning to Lender (i) Borrower's rights to any insurance proceeds in an amount not to exceed the amounts unpaid under the Nate and this Security Instrument, and (it) any other of Borrower's rights (other than the right to any refund of unearned premiums paid by Borrower) under all insurance policies covering the Property, to the extent that such rights are applicable to the coverage of the Property. If Lender files, negotiates, or settles a claim, Borrower agrees that any insurance proceeds may be made payable directly to Lender without the need to include Borrower as an additional loss payee. Lender may use the insurance proceeds either to repair or restore the Property (as provided in Section 5(d)) or to pay amounts unpaid under the Note or this Securfly Instrument, whether or not then due.

(c) Funds Paid by Lender. If the Rents are not sufficient to cover the costs of taking control of and managing the Property and of collecting the Rents, any funds paid by Lender for such purposes will become indebtedness of Borrower to Lender secured by this Security Instrument pursuant to Section 9. (d) Limitation on Collection of Rents. Borrower may not collect any of the Rents more than one month in advance of the time when the Rents become due, except for security or similar deposits. (e) No Other Assignment of Rents.

(1) Control and Maintenance of the Property. Unless required by Applicable Law, Lender, or a receiver appointed under Applicable Law, is not obligated to enter upon, take control of, or maintain the Property before or after giving notice of Default to Borrower. However, Lender, or a receiver appointed under Applicable Law, may do so at any time when Borrower is in Default, subject to Applicable Law. (g) Additional Provisions. Any application of the Rents will not cure or waive any Default or invalidate any other right or remedy of Lender. This Section 10 does not relieve Borrower of Borrower's obligations under Section 6. This Section 10 will lermirate when all the sums secured by this Security Instrument are paid in full. 11. Mortgage Insurance. (a) Payment of Premiums; Substitution of Policy; Loss Reserve; Protection of Lender. If Lender required Mortgage Insurance as a condition of making the Loan, Borrower will pay the premiums required to maintain the Mort- gage Insurance in effect. If Borrower was required to make separately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance, and (i) the Mortgage Insurance coverage required by Lender ceases for any reason to be available from the mortgage insurer that previously provided such Insurance, or (ii) Lender determines in Its sole discretion that such mortgage insurer is no longer eligible to provide the Mortgage Insurance coverage required by Lender, Borrowerwill pay the premiums required to obtain coverage substantially equivalent to the Mortgage Insurance previously in affect, at a cost substantially equivalent to the cost to Borrower of the Mortgage insurance previously in effect, from an alternate mortgage insurer selected by Lender. If substantially equivalent Mortgage Insurance coverage is not available, Borrower will continue to pay to Lender the amount of the separately designated payments that were due when the insurance coverage ceased to be In effecl. Lender will accept, use, and retain these payments as a non-refundable loss reserve, if permitted under Applicable Law, In lieu of Mortgage Insurance. Such less reserve will be nori-refundable, even when the Loan is paid in full, and Lender will not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings on such loss reserve, if permitted tinder Applicable I.aw. Lender will no longer require loss reserve payments if Mortgage Insurance coverage (in the amount and for the period that Lender requires) provided byan Insurer selected by Lender again becomes available, is obtained, and Lender requires separately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance. If Lender required Mortgage Insurance as a condition of making the Loan and Borrowerwas required to make sepa- rately designated payments toward the premiums for Mortgage Insurance, Borrower will pay the premiums required to maintain Mortgage Insurance In effect, if permitted under Applicable Law, or to provide a non-refundable lass reserve, until Lender's requirement for Mortgage Insurance ends in accordance with any written agreement between Borrower and tender providing for such termination or until termination is required by Applicable Law. Nothing In this Section 11 affects Borrower's obligation to pay interest at the Nate rate. (b) Mortgage Insurance Agreements. Mortgage Insurance reimburses Lender for certain losses Lender may Incur if Borrower does not repay the Loan as agreed, Borrower is not a party to the Mortgage insurance policy or coverage. Mortgage insurers evaluate their total risk on all such insurance in force from time to time, and may enter into agree- ments with other parties that share or modify their risk, or reduce losses. These agreements may require the mortgage insurer to make payments using any source of funds that the mortgage insurer may have available (which may Include funds obtained from Mortgage insurance premiums). As a result of these agreements, Lender, another Insurer, any reinsurer, any other entity, or any affiliate of any of the foregoing, may receive (directly or indirectly) amounts that derive from (or might be characterized as) a portion of Bor- rower's payments for Mortgage Insurance, in exchange for sharing or modifying the mortgage Insurer's risk, or reducing losses. Any such agreements will not: (i) affect the amounts that Borrower has agreed to pay for Mortgage Insurance, or any other terms of the Loan; (ii) increase the amount Borrower will owe for Mortgage Insurance; (ill) entitle Borrower to any refund; or (iv) affect the rights Borrower has, if any, with respect to the Mortgage Insurance under the Homeowners Protection Act of 1998 (12 U.S.C. § 4901 at seq.), as it may be amended from time to time, or any additional or successor federal legislation or regulation that governs Hie same subject matter ("HPA').These rights under the HPA may include the right to receive certain disclosures, to request and obtain cancellation of the Mortgage Insurance, to have the Mortgage Insurance terminated automatically, and/or to receive a refund of any Mortgage Insurance premiums that were unearned at the time of such cancellation or termination. 12. Assignment and Application of Miscellaneous Proceeds; Forfeiture. (a) Assignment of Miscellaneous Proceeds.

(b) Application of Miscellaneous Proceeds upon Damage to Properly. If the Properly Is damaged, any Miscei- laneous Proceeds will be applied to restoration or repair of the Property, if Lender deems the restoration or repair to be economically feasible and Lender's security will not be lessened by such restoration or repair. During such repair and restoration period, Lender will have the right to hold such Miscellaneous Proceeds until Lender has had an opportunity to inspect the Property to ensure the work has been completed to Lender's satisfaction (which may include satisfying Lender's minimurn eligibility requirements for persons repairing the Property, including, but not limited to, licensing, bond, and insurance requirements) provided that such inspection must be undertakers promptly. Lender may pay for the repairs and restoration in a single disbursornenl or in a series of progress payments as the work is completed, depending on the size of the repair or restoration, the terms of the repair agreement, and whether Borrower is in Default on the Loan. Lender may make such disbursements directly to Borrower, to the person repairing or restoring the Property, or payable NORTH CAROLINA —Single Farnfly—Fan nle MaelFreddie Mac UNIFORM INSTRUMENT (MFRS) Form 30g4 e712o21 ICE Mortgage Technology, Inc.

Unless Lander and Borrower agree in writing orApplicable Law requires interest to be paid on such Miscel- laneous Proceeds, Lender will not be required to pay Borrower any interest or earnings on such Miscellaneous Proceeds. II Lender deems the restoration or repair not to be economically feasible or Lender's security would be lessened by such restoration or repair, the Miscellaneous Proceeds will be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, with the excess, it any, paid to Borrower.

Any balance of the Miscellaneous Proceeds will be paid to Borrower. In the event of a Partial Devaluation where the fairmarket value of the Propertyimmediatety before the Partial Devalu- allon is less than the amount of the sums secured immediately before the Partial Devaluation, all of the Miscellaneous Proceeds will be applied to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not the sums are than due, unless Borrower and Lender otherwise agree in writing. (d) Settlement of Claims. Lender is authorized to collect and apply the Miscellaneous Proceeds either to the sums secured by this Security Instrument, whether or not then due, or to restoration or repair of the Property, if Borrower (i) abandons the Property, or (it) fails to respond to Lender within 30 days after the date Lender notifies Borrower that the Opposing Party (as defined in the next sentence) offers to settle a claim for damages. "Opposing Party" means the third party that owes Borrower the Miscellaneous Proceeds or the party against whom Borrower has a right of action in regard to the Miscellaneous Proceeds. (e) Proceeding Affecting Lender's Interest In the Property. Borrower will be in Default if any action or proceeding begins, whether civil or criminal, that, in Lendei s judgment, could result in forfeiture of the Properly or other material impair- ment of Lender's interest to the Property or rights under this Security Instrument. Borrower can cure such a Default and, if acceleration has occurred, reinstate as provided in Section 20, by causing the action or proceeding to be dismissed with a ruling that, in Lendersjudgment, precludes forfeiture of the Property or other material impairment of Lender's interest fn the Property or rights under this Security instrument. Borrower is unconditionally assigning to I cinder the proceeds of any award or claim for damages that are attributable to the impairment of lenders interest in the Property, which proceeds %rill be paid to Lender. All Miscellaneous Proceeds that are not applied to restoration or repair of the Property will be applied in the order that Partial Payments are applied in Section 2(b). 13. Borrower Not Rcleased; Forbearance by Lender Not a Waiver. Borrower or any Successor in Interest of Bor- rower will not be released from liability under this Security Instrument if Lender extends the time for payment or modifies the amortization of the sums secured by this Security instrument. Lender will not be required to commence proceedings against. any Successor in Interest of Borrower, or to refuse to extend time for payment or otherwise modify amortization of the struts sparred by this Security Instrument, by reason of any demand made by the original Berrower or any Successors In Interest of Borrower.Any forbearance by Lender in exercising any right or remedy Including, without limitation, Lenders acceptance of payments from third persons, entities, or Successors in Interest of Borrower or in amounts less than the amount then due, will not be a waiver of, or preclude the exercise of, any right or remedy by Lender. 14.
